Chapter 876: Chapter 871: The Arrogant Truth
Roy Lewis’s visit this ti led to several major collaborations.
Thus, the Federation governnt held a press conference the next day to simply respond to the visit.
A journalist, who seed to enjoy stirring up trouble, asked, “Mr. Lewis, many people in the Federation now say that, in your short ti in office, you have passed several policies that had been stuck for a long ti and have also facilitated several major collaborations with neighboring countries. This shows that you are more suitable to be president than Mr. President. What is your view on this?”
Roy Lewis glanced at the reporter’s ID card and, as expected, he was a reporter from the dia faction of Mason Lilliput.
“It’s because the people only see that these proposals were passed during my tenure and that I facilitated major collaborations during my tenure, but they all ignored that these proposals and collaborations are what President Kennedy Green has been dedicated to pushing forward since he took office. He completed ninety-nine percent of it, and I just took the final step. In terms of contributions, President Green accounts for 99.9%, and I account for 0.1%.”
Roy Lewis did not deny himself but gave almost all the praise and credit to Kennedy Green.
“Mr. Lewis, both inside and outside the Federation, many people praise you as an outstanding leader. May I ask, after President Kennedy’s term is over, will Mr. Lewis consider taking up the banner from Mr. Green?”
Roy Lewis didn’t hesitate to respond, “No!”
The reporter persisted, “Is it because the job lacks challenge? Or is the return not as high as being the CEO of Lewis Group?”
Roy Lewis glanced at the reporter’s ID card again, which showed a neutral dia position.
“Neither, it’s simply because the current job is really busy. As you all know, I just got married, so I hope to spend more ti managing my marriage and family.”
Then, another reporter asked.
“Mrs. Lewis is an exceptional doctor. Is it because she is unwilling to give up her career and return to her family that Mr. Lewis has to give up his personal ideals and choose a career that allows for more family ti?”
This question was clearly filled with malice and unfriendliness, with provocative remarks.
Roy Lewis has always been good at handling such petty people and responded to the reporter with a serious expression.
“First of all, my wife is an independent person with her career to strive for. She married because we love each other, not because she owes . And I got married because I need a woman who loves and can support , not a woman who gives up everything to return to her family. I have no right to demand her to shoulder all the family responsibilities that should be shared by both husband and wife, and she has no obligation to do so for . My ideal family is one where husband and wife work together to solve problems, big and small.”
Roy Lewis’s response may represent the aspirations of most married won but goes against the views of most married n.
“Isn’t Mrs. Lewis taking on the responsibility for Mr. Lewis when she becos the CEO of Lewis Group?”
It was clear that this reporter was looking to stir up trouble.
Benjamin Fred hastened to remind the reporter of a better question, “My dear reporter friend, your question has deviated from the topic. This is Mr. Lewis’s private matter and has nothing to do with the the of the press conference.”
However, after Benjamin’s reminder, Roy Lewis added a point.
“As I said, husband and wife should support each other. At this stage, it’s ti for my wife to support . When she encounters difficulties and needs help, I will also reach out and support her without hesitation.”
After responding, Roy Lewis gestured for another reporter to ask a question.
“Mr. Lewis, it is said that your injury is due to so private grudges and offending people you shouldn’t have offended. Is this true?”
Roy Lewis thought to himself that many enemies had infiltrated this press conference.
It seed that in the future, they would have to reorganize and comb out these dia platforms.
“Of course, it’s false. For a person like , if I really offended soone, it would be a major offense, and the other party would directly take my life, not inflict a minor wound to scare children!”
Since his injury occurred during a private trip, he wasn’t obligated to tell others about it.
But at the ti, he did tell Benjamin Fred about it. Now, after Lewis gave his response, Benjamin said to the reporter.
“Mr. Lewis is only the acting president, not selling himself to the Federation. He hasn’t done anything to harm the Federation governnt nor the interests of the masses. May I ask the reporter, from what standpoint are you questioning Mr. Lewis? Let just say this: if there is no personal freedom or privacy left, who will be willing to take on such thankless tasks in the future?”
Benjamin Fred’s supplentary explanation silenced that reporter.
And the questions that followed finally returned to the topic.
“Foreign dia reports that during this visit, Mr. Lewis led the team to sign at least a hundred billion dollars’ worth of cooperative projects. Mr. Lewis, is this report accurate, or is it exaggerating?”
Roy Lewis neither denied nor admitted.
“On this occasion, we signed several cooperative agreents in different fields. Later on, various departnts will issue public notices that everyone can check and verify.”
Another reporter asked.
“Foreign dia also said that with so many collaborative projects signed with Crostania this ti, the country with the closest cooperation with the Federation in the future will no longer be South Asia. Is this true, Mr. Lewis?”
Roy Lewis thought for a mont, then replied.
“Of course not. The Federation has always had close cooperation with all neighboring countries, including South Asia, Crostania, Leutonia, etc., and we are all among the most important partners for each other.”
Roy Lewis was proficient in this official tone.
“Mr. Lewis, may I ask, in the collaborative projects negotiated this ti, what is the proportion of Lewis Group’s advantageous industries? Will Lewis Group try to avoid suspicion and participate less in these projects?”
As Benjamin Fred was about to refuse to answer this question, Roy Lewis signaled him to hold off.
After all, this was a reasonable concern from the public.
“The key is not the size of the proportion, but rather that these collaborative projects will go through a formal bidding process. If Lewis Group is the most suitable company, why shouldn’t they seize this win-win opportunity?”
“For example, in the field of new energy and energy conservation, Lewis Group is absolutely leading not only in the Federation but also globally. If Lewis Group withdrew from bidding for the sake of avoiding suspicion, do you think the partners would be happy or even agree to it? Who do you think these projects were aid at in the first place?”
Roy Lewis made it clear that so of Lewis Group’s globally dominant areas and projects were not obtained by the Federation as business collaborations.
On the contrary, it was because Lewis Group possessed such technology and capabilities that the partners signed related collaborative projects with the Federation.
Although this might seem a bit arrogant to others in Roy Lewis’s words, it was just confidence and plain truth in front of absolute strength.
