spnOn January 1, 1948, the Imperial New Year, a grand wedding of the century was held in the largest Imperial Square in Hanking.

In the early stages of planning, the Imperial Plaza was the first in the world, far surpassing any other international square. It is located in Hanking New Town and has always been the place where the empire held grand celebrations.

With the end of the war, the war-torn people of the original countries can travel to the Empire at their own expense. Those who have no money can apply to join the local sightseeing groups organized by the Empire. As long as you can list an item for the Nationalities Affairs Committee to

You can join for any reason recognized by the officials in charge of this project, even if you admire a certain place in the empire.

On weekdays, tourists from all continents and oceans of the empire crowd this place to a sea of ​​people. Here, they truly experience what it is like to live like a native in the kingdom of heaven.

The streets are constantly flowing, bustling with traffic, well-dressed men, fashionable women, children and the elderly with rosy faces. There is no war here, only prosperity.[

Often, these citizens who come to visit the mainland and hold other citizenship certificates will see more heavy trucks on a highway than they have small and medium-sized trucks in a city. Those huge cargo boxes tell the story of economic prosperity.

Early in the morning, local citizens from all over the country, as well as other citizens from other regions, had already completed the registration and review work within one day yesterday. With huge manpower investment, only the empire could execute such a grand event in a short time.

Inside.

At this time, nearly 1.5 million local citizens and tens of thousands of other citizens in the entire Empire Square had already occupied most of this great square.

In the center of the square is the tall Imperial Heroes Monument, on the west side is the conference area, and on the east side are memorial halls, museums, and the huge Imperial Library.

In order to ensure that this prosperous time was lost, the imperial army rarely drove directly into the square and divided the citizens participating in the celebration into several communities. The murderous tanks and armor warned anyone who dared to cause "rebellion". Of course, Zhang Shusheng

I firmly believe that no one will cause "rebellion" at such a moment, just as another regime in history often organized such large-scale square activities.

The tower on the left side of the square has been temporarily raised and expanded into a high platform. It is very impressive and the wedding will be held on it.

"Long live, long live——"

Amidst cheers, Sun Changqing, Vice Chairman of the Imperial Supreme Power Council, and Chiang Kai-shek, the second host, who were dressed in the wedding attire of the wedding host, walked onto the small square.

The small square is about thirty meters above the ground, which allows the millions of people below to see clearly. Not only that, there are also many state-of-the-art large screens placed in the square for live broadcasts, which everyone can clearly see.

The wedding takes place.

Of course, those people who could not come to the scene were sitting in front of TV sets and radios, waiting for the grand event to begin.

Even some newly added areas to the empire, such as the Canadian area and the Soviet area. Although these areas were divided into provinces, their names have not been changed. In the future, they will be regarded as the Canadian area belonging to the Canadian ethnic group and the Soviet area belonging to the Soviet ethnic group.

A broad definition of geographical location.

The conditions in these areas were not as good as those in the mainland, and they were in dire need of development. However, the empire still placed many televisions on the streets in the city center, squares, and even in front of government buildings to broadcast the grand event simultaneously.

Even though it was not the first time for some people to see a TV, and they might even have one at home, they were still shocked when they saw the grand scene on the screen, the sea of ​​people and the solemn atmosphere of the celebration.

"Fellow compatriots in the empire, I am honored to preside over a wedding here today that will surely go down in history. Money is easy to come by, but a good match is hard to find. This imperial wedding will be blessed by all the citizens of the empire..."

Sun Changqing's speech was not long, but every word came from the heart. He did not use a speech script, or even a speech script. He knew that as long as he stood up and started to preside over Zhang Shusheng's wedding, he would be filled with emotions.

Isn't the marriage of his godson a happy event for the Sun family? Zhang Shusheng has always regarded Sun Changqing as his only elder relative, and he has the same position as the head of the family.

After all, Sun Changqing didn't know that Zhang Shusheng came from a later generation, so he naturally didn't know that in Zhang Shusheng's mind, his status was the same as that of his father.

Not long after, Sun Changqing announced that the wedding had begun.

The senior military and political officials of the empire, as well as people from the Fu family, the He family, and the Lu family all boarded the ceremonial stage in the small square.[

The 188 salute guns began to fire non-stop. They will be responsible for firing 9,999 salutes. On average, one artillery fires nearly 40 times.

Amid the rumble of cannons, the ceremony officially began.

Following Sun Changqing's calm and confident announcement, the imperial flag guard escorted the golden dragon flag out of the tower and led to the flag-raising platform.

"Raise the flag and play the national anthem!"

The thousand-member national band played the national anthem, and with a wave of the national anthem flag guard, the dazzling golden dragon flag slowly rose. Under the shining of the morning sun, it seemed like a living dragon, slowly rising to the top of the flagpole.

At the same time, millions of people present sang together and sang the official national anthem.

"The Chinese nation has reached its most dangerous time..."

Someone once wrote an article in a newspaper saying that the situation in the empire is now very good, and whether the national anthem can be changed. Zhang Shusheng did not adopt it. Instead, he instructed the Imperial Propaganda Department to publish an article, pointing out that the Chinese nation must always be based on a sense of crisis, and must face the planet and even the world.

The dangers that may come from the stars in the future.

As a result, no one proposed changing the national anthem.

After the national anthem was played and the national flag was raised, the military parade troops were already prepared and waiting for the newlyweds to enter.

Everyone looked eagerly at the small square high up ahead, and almost everyone thought that the chairman and his wife would come out of there.

However, not long after, only Zhang Shusheng, wearing a bright red traditional groom's robe, walked up to the ceremony stage in the small square.

"Dear compatriots and distinguished guests:

Today is my special day, Zhang Shusheng, and I have worked hard and mobilized everyone to witness this great moment, both publicly and privately. I can’t thank you enough here.”

Zhang Shusheng paused for a moment and continued, "Just now, when I came here, someone told me that some European reporters were discussing how much of the empire's budget this wedding would cost. Haha, I can tell you responsibly that this wedding

Not a penny of the empire's budget was spent, and even the cost of the military parade would be paid for by my personal assets, Zhang Shusheng's, in the Shusheng Group.

Of course, if anyone thinks that I am showing off as an emperor by inviting more than one million compatriots to witness the wedding, I can say that, but I will have a series of gifts dedicated to you and all compatriots in the empire a little later.

.”

Today is an extremely festive day. Zhang Shusheng deliberately kept himself appropriately humorous, so that he would not have any identity but would also make people feel friendly. The most important thing is that he wanted to give Fu Huiyu and the three of them the most perfect wedding.

.

Yes. Three people.

His half-joking statement made the two million people present admire him. The chairman of the committee has always made a clear distinction between public and private matters.

The company motto of Shusheng Company is to be the greatest company, and it has always developed in parallel with the empire. It has even supported the development of the empire many times.

Although Shusheng Company was the first to enter some monopoly industries, the price paid was much higher than that of ordinary companies. It can be said that, to a certain extent, Shusheng Company and the Empire are a win-win situation.

Moreover, Zhang Shusheng is still studying that at the appropriate time, the empire's military budget will be sponsored by Shusheng Company for a certain proportion. This proportion will not be particularly large for the time being, but once it enters the next stage of civilization and interstellar trade begins to rise, it will be a

In the stage of explosive wealth accumulation, Shusheng Company will also become even richer.[

In the long-term plan, in addition to the majority of the wealth earned by Shusheng Company belonging to Zhang Shusheng personally, some will also be invested in society and the army. This small part of the money will mean a huge sum for the empire.

wealth.

Referring to other civilizations, some giant interstellar trading companies can even earn the wealth of several or dozens of galaxy civilizations.

For example, if a company can sell a battleship of an intermediate civilization to a low-level civilization and exchange the battleship for ores or rare materials, it will make a fortune, which means a profit of dozens or even hundreds of times.

The original intention of the establishment of Shusheng Company was to continue to develop, and in the future it will surely move towards the path of interstellar trade, parallel to the expansion of the empire, the expansion of commerce and trade.

"The empire is getting stronger and stronger, and some people are already satisfied, but we cannot limit our sights to the past. The empire's scientists have already confirmed the existence of extraterrestrial civilizations, which means that in the future, our empire's eyes will be on the stars.

My compatriots, have you ever yearned for the starry sky?

My compatriots, have you ever yearned for Chang'e who could land on the moon?

My compatriots, have you ever yearned for the wonders and wonders beyond the sky?

Maybe everyone thinks this is far away and that we haven't reached that level yet. But in fact, mass-produced civilian technology and our empire's huge reserve technology do not have the same meaning.

Because we have too many outstanding scientists who have developed too many high-tech technologies including biotechnology and genes. These will be applied to the public in the near future, allowing everyone to enjoy these high-tech belts.

The benefits come.

Just as we may not have had a TV ten years ago, we may not have had a personal computer three years ago, we may have never played computer games a year ago, we may not have witnessed the empire's most advanced scientific and technological power before today, but these are not the most important.

I, Zhang Shusheng, stand in front of everyone, which is the greatest proof.

The empire has long announced the great success of genetic technology and life technology, and I, Zhang Shusheng, am the best proof of this.

According to traditional concepts, I should be an old man who is almost fifty years old today, but mentally, physically, and physically, I am like a young man in his twenties, and there is no inconsistency at all.

Why?

Studying and thinking, researching and planning the future of this nation make my mind full of activeness and youthfulness.

Genetic technology and life technology have allowed me to live as long as possible. Instead of being like what others imagine, the Chairman can only lead you for a few decades. No, I will lead you on the road to civilization for a longer period of time.

OK.

It’s not that I’m in love with my old horse, but I’m afraid that the momentum of rapid development of this civilization will be destroyed. I’m afraid that this civilization will be submerged in the starry sky of the future. I’m afraid that this civilization will encounter something worse than the invasion on the planet in the next few decades or hundreds of years.

An extinction of civilization ten thousand times crueler.

What is civilization extinction? According to research, there are too many violent civilizations in the starry sky. They like to occupy your home, take away your planet, capture you as slaves, and then sell you tens of thousands of light years away. Let you

Even if I die, I will never be able to return to my hometown...

So, I had to work hard to let go of these things, return to normalcy, and then watch this nation being ravaged by invaders in the stars. I couldn't do it.

then--

I can proudly announce that after the rapidly passing computer information age, we will usher in the next era. That is the new energy era.

Compared with the old energy era, the new energy era will provide the foundation for our civilization to explore the stars and complete the technological and industrial revolutions.

Energy will be the most important aspect.

In the new energy era that will come next, no one will rule. People can only live to be 100 years old, and genetic technology and life technology will change everything.

In the not-too-distant future, citizens of the empire will be transformed by genetic technology in batches and injected with life potions. We will greatly increase the life span of citizens. This is not a dream. It will be a fact.
To be continued...
