Chapter 653: President Chu Tian (1/2)
The Miracle Federation presidential election had officially begun, being held in over two hundred areas.There were over ten special warships and they were responsible for over twenty areas each. They would remain in an area taking votes for a day, so it would take a total of twenty days.
The ballots would be sent to Miracle City and the results would be announced to the entire continent.Although everyone knew there was no suspense in this election, everyone still happily paid attention to it.The various countries had even opened gambling houses to bet on candidate ranks and vote totals.
Five days passed.
There was a clear trend in the first wave of votes.Chu Tian alone took up 70% of the votes and Meng Qingwu took 20% of the remaining votes.The other ten percent belonged to the other candidates.
Ten days passed.
The second wave of votes basically secured the ending.Chu Tian had a total 65% of the votes, with Meng Qingwu following behind with 26%.The two of them added together made up for 91% of the total votes. This meant that all the other candidates added together didn’t even make up a single digit, so these people could already be eliminated.
After the Miracle Federation citizens understood Miracle City and Miracle Commerce, although Chu Tian’s position was unbreakable, there were also many people who supported Meng Qingwu.Chu Tian’s supporters were made of middle and lower class because these people didn’t have too deep of an understanding of Miracle City and Miracle Commerce. Therefore, they were more attracted by Chu Tian’s personal history, developing a cult like worship towards Chu Tian.
Meng Qingwu’s major supporters mainly came from the upper class.They knew that Miracle City and Miracle Commerce were actually controlled by Meng Qingwu.This vice City Lord was very smart and made every person admire her, therefore Meng Qingwu had a decent level of support.
Of course.
Whether it was Meng Qingwu or Chu Tian as the president, the meaning was the same.Chu Tian’s influence on the continent far surpassed that of Meng Qingwu in the heart of the emperors.Because Meng Qingwu was very astute, if she wasn’t attached to someone like Chu Tian, at most she could be an accomplished person in a city or country.She would definitely not be world famous like she was now.
Chu Tian was the truly inspirational person.
The post as the first president of the Miracle Federation was Chu Tian’s right.
As for whether Chu Tian remained the president or not, or if Meng Qingwu, the other high level members of Miracle Commerce, or even if someone from the Big Dry Empire or another area took over, it all didn’t matter.
This was because although the Miracle Federation was a country, its core was still Miracle Commerce.As long as Chu Tian’s group firmly held Miracle Commerce, it didn’t matter who was the federation’s president.It was nothing more than hiring a CEO to manage a country, this country’s real lifeline would always be held in the hands of Miracle Commerce.
Of course, with Miracle Commerce’s group here, it would be hard for even the Big Dry Empire’s Big Dry Emperor to become the president.The Big Dry Empire’s people made up a third of the Miracle Federation, but outside the Big Dry Empire, the Big Dry Emperor had almost no support.As well, there were quite a few people in the Big Dry Empire that worshipped Miracle Commerce and that number was still growing.
After the change on the fifteenth day, there was basically no need for the election anymore.
The voter turnout had already surpassed 75%, but Chu Tian alone had over 50% of the votes.Even if the rest of the people voted for Meng Qingwu, they couldn’t do anything to change this.
Miracle City immediately made an announcement.The Miracle Federation’s first president was Chu Tian and the vice president was Meng Qingwu.This result couldn’t have been changed since the beginning, but this announcement still drew out large amounts of cheers and excitement.
“Congratulations president!”Meng Yingying, Nangong Yun, Vivian, and the others all ran over to congratulate Chu Tian.
Nangong Yun even hugged Meng Yingying and said, “As the president’s wife, shouldn’t you treat us to a good meal?Our request isn’t high, just the Miracle Royal Palace’s Royal Feast is enough!”
Meng Yingying had fully adopted to her identity after a few days, she didn’t look embarrassed at all, “Alright!Don’t just mention the Royal Feast, I’ll bring out a Presidential Feast that is even better than the Royal Feast!”
“Wa, Presidential Feast?”Vivian’s eyes lit up, “I want it as well!”
This presidential election was a very important matter, but these people only cared about eating, like they didn’t care about this matter at all.Meng Qingwu came in to say to everyone, “The president has been elected and we’ve submitted a notice to the continent’s joint council, so now it’s for the president’s inaugural speech.Yingying, you are the first lady, so you also have to make a speech. Also, Nangong and Vivian, you are senior members of the federation, so you all have to attend.”
“This troublesome?”
“We’re different from before, the entire continent is watching us, so we have to do some official things.These can’t be avoided.” Meng Qingwu helplessly shrugged her shoulders, “But there is good news, our Presidential Palace has already been built.I think we can officially start using it today, do you want to take a look?”
“Presidential Palace!”
“This is great!”
“I want to see!”
Miracle City’s City Lord Fort was where the City Lord did his business.Now that Chu Tian’s group had already formed the Miracle Federation that dominated the continent, it was naturally time for them to change to a new location.
Everyone came to the Transport Tower and after the Transport Tower lit up, everyone was sent into the main hall of the Presidential Palace.This main hall seemed like it was completely sealed, being around the same size as a little square. It was made of crystals farmed from the moon, therefore it looked very elegant and noble.
The various emperors had all been invited.
The Wind Moon Empress looked around, “This is Miracle City’s newest Presidential Palace?I think it’s only normal, it’s on the same level as an emperor’s side palace.”
The other emperors also nodded.
Everyone thought that Miracle Commerce’s newly built presidential palace would be luxurious.The material seemed like it was high grade, but the space wasn’t big enough, it couldn’t compare to the Miracle Royal Palace.
“Everyone, don’t say that too early.”Chu Tian gave a soft snap, “Turn on outside view mode.”
