Chapter 476 General Election
At the end of May, An Feng finished handling the matter in the United States.
Next month is the parliamentary election in Sardinia. They will have a lot of things to do, so they will bring all their luggage and say goodbye to California with their children who are happy without going to school.
"Go to the beach!" Alice ran on the grass with a toy plane.
Joanna extinguished the little girl's joy: "When you get there, hurry up and ask the tutor for advice and master the tricks of being a princess."
"Oh no!" Alice pouted. The princess's addiction passed. Faced with the complicated etiquette, her cute little brows kept frowning.
"Mom." Fred met his mother's smile, "Am I a prince?"
"Of course you are, my dear." Joanna squatted in front of him - her squat was also of particular concern, and preventing exposure was naturally a must for any woman. The difference is that she cannot bend over, and the queen's waist must be straight, especially in public places.
She helped Fred clean his hair, and the child's hair was longer. This was the father's bad taste. He had seen Roger's son Edward before. The little guy's big back head was so handsome. He also asked a designer to make a long hair specifically for Fred. His hair was lighter in color, which was very suitable.
An Feng came over with two ropes, and the two Welsh Corgis were very noisy: "Alice, come and take care of your pet!"
"I know!" Alice ran to get the rope.
"What else has fallen, children?" An Feng looked at the two children, "I'm afraid we will not be back next year after the plane takes off."
"No!" Alice didn't think about it.
"Okay, let's go!" An Feng touched the heads of the two guys, said goodbye to the friends who came to see him off, leaving them some time.
Finally, I went to Santa Barbara Airport, and the cargo was delivered to the transport plane, people and pets were on the business plane. I flew to Los Angeles. After landing, I then transferred to the "Queen Special Plane" that I had been waiting for for a long time. The specially customized Boeing 747 painting has been completed. It looks very beautiful from a distance.
Walking the stairs to the cabin, the two children soon forgot the sadness of being separated from their friends, and ran around in the plane curiously. Finally, they grabbed the most lively Alice, pressed her on the seat, and buckled the seat belt. An Feng said to her: "Let's play after taking off!"
"Yes, dad!" Alice imitated the soldier's tone.
...
Arrived in Sardinia at night and prepared to land in the military airport.
The local airport in Cagliari was theoretically able to land Boeing 747, but if you want to take off, the safe distance is not enough. The airport designer did not consider large passenger planes, so he could only turn to the runway of An's Industry. Dezimomanu is a former air force base, so the runway is naturally long enough.
When the plane landed, An Feng and Joanna were discussing the construction of an international airport in the suburbs. The runway was at least 3.5 kilometers long, and one was built and a clearing was reserved to meet future development needs. They were full of confidence in the future. Sardinia must be the most developed country.
...
As June approaches, newspapers, TV and the Internet are discussing the election.
It is the first parliamentary election of the country. It will form a real first government, and discuss their ruling program, future development direction, national defense issues, or issues related to the vital interests of the people. This is also the focus of parliamentarians' struggle for the people.
Sardinia has a total of eight constituencies. According to the bill signed by the Queen, 35 senators and 50 members of the House of Representatives will be produced, with a small number, but it is more appropriate to have a population of 1.5 million. The majority of the party in the House of Representatives will be the ruling party. The leader of the party will become the prime minister of the government.
This set is similar to other constitutional monarchical countries.
The Queen is also concerned about the recent situation of the two political parties in the country and understands the politics of the country, but she herself has no time to collect it slowly. Ms. Roberts takes over this aspect. At present, Roberts feels like the first attendant around the Queen and shares a lot of work.
An Feng is relatively leisurely, so he goes to check various plans.
A month ago, two 200,000-ton cargo ships from Australia had already landed, and several major overseas bases were basically emptied. The number of various robots in Anshi Industry reached 42,000, and humanoids accounted for 2,000 units. The others were for special purposes.
Haliv modified the robot program to update information about industrial buildings.
This group of robots, originally used for military use, now work part-time "construction workers". There are many places where they need to start construction, including a large nuclear power plant on the southern peninsula, the Moncalery Palace in Cagliari, the new parliament building, the school, and another royal residence on the eastern coast.
There are also construction projects in the north, requiring office buildings, but they are the work of construction companies.
In order to coordinate with the overall style of the city, the architecture does not adopt the skyscrapers of the New York metropolis, but has a similar style, with a baroque, neoclassical mood. It is usually not high but very wide. An Feng has seen the architectural renderings and is very suitable for the original city.
The current shortage of materials is also signing agreements with new suppliers.
The first to start construction was the nuclear power plant and the palace. Robots and stereo printers were started at the same time. The buildings were not all printed by machines. Flexible robots could also replace human work, and even better - because they could have many hands, while humans had only two hands; they could work twenty-four hours, without feeling tired, at most they would charge some electricity, and humans obviously could not do the work that would never stop.
Eve promised that as long as the building materials are sufficient, she could exert more than ten times higher efficiency than humans. Nearly 10,000 robots for various purposes started construction according to the designer's concept. This efficiency is indeed not comparable to that of humans. It is almost impossible to make mistakes, and it is accurate to the micron level.
Twenty thousand units of robots are running.
An Feng can be a supervisor with confidence, just like a designer, take a few glances on time to ensure the correct progress of the project.
It was early June when the Queen announced the start of the parliamentary election.
Residents from all over the country have also begun to vote according to the constituency to select their favorite members. Senators and members of the House of Representatives are selected in the same way. It is estimated that the selection model of senators will be rectified in the future, but now everything is simple and the easiest way is carried out. The voting time is seven days.
After a week, we began to enter the busy statistical phase.
The results came out at the end of the month. The most popular House of Representatives were 40 places in the Liberal Party and 10 places in the BJP. The Liberal Party was undoubtedly elected as the ruling party of this term, and the leader of the Party Camillo Mancini became prime minister for a term of five years. After the fourth year, he had the right to apply to the Queen to disband the parliament.
How do you understand it? In fact, it is to look at political achievements in four years. If the political achievements are very good and the timing is right, the Prime Minister will definitely take the opportunity to dissolve the parliament and call for elections for the whole people. Therefore, this model will keep the political party in a state of conscientious work and always maintain good performance.
In the Senate, the Liberal Party also has the dominance.
It can be said that the original party has accumulated great prestige in the hearts of the local people.
The TV station's interview was given a reason, and residents believed that promoting independence, accepting constitutional monarchy, and recognizing Joanna's monarchy was a contribution to the Liberal Party.
The result is that the Liberal Party has benefited from the Queen.
After the election results come out, the queen will first appoint the prime minister and the list of cabinet ministers submitted by her, and then schedule a parliamentary opening ceremony to be held on July 10. The queen will preside over the meeting and read out the new government's ruling program, legislation and work direction.
There are quite a lot of things. Before the Queen appoints the Prime Minister and her cabinet, An Feng finds time to talk to Mancini.
Obviously, this kind of heart-to-heart talk is not a common thing.
There are also some specialties when An Feng comes forward. If the queen comes forward, the conversation is more inclined to... orders. Although it is a constitutional monarchy. However, judging from the current popularity of the queen, her words are more effective than anyone else, and almost all voters listen to her. So when she comes to talk, the current environment is not suitable.
When An Feng comes to talk, he prefers informality.
In fact, the royal family was quite tired... An Feng and Mancini were walking on the lawn outside the hotel, talking about political parties and state affairs.
Mancini also knew An Feng’s purpose. He represented the royal family and the consortium behind Sardinia.
Mancini greeted: "You two children are fine recently, Your Highness?"
"It's OK, I'm very adaptable to the environment here." An Feng held his hands behind his back and looked up at the sea. "This is a good place. They all like it."
Mancini said: "The island has a suitable climate and is very suitable for living, and the economy will be perfect when it develops."
"You're right." An Feng nodded, "Since I chose it, I have regarded it as an ideal place to enjoy the long years. I have high expectations for it and want to build it into a rich country that suits my ideals. Can you understand this mentality?"
"It's like watching your child grow up in the direction he expects," said Mancini. "As a parent, you have to work hard and hard. I can understand your highness's ideals. I have had a moment of youth, but the environment is limited and I am not allowed to do so."
An Feng looked at him: "It seems that we have the same point of view."
"From the moment I swore allegiance to the Queen, the consensus of the views was all from the perspective of serving the country," Mancini said.
An Feng nodded: "I hope we can reach a consensus on important matters in the future. I am honest and I am a little bit more pursuing perfectionism and like things to develop in the ideal direction, and there will inevitably be oppositions of incomprehension or even opinions. I hope the sir can forgive me."
"It is admirable to contribute to the country, and we advocate this behavior," Mancini said.
An Feng stopped and stretched out his hand: "Mr. Mancini, I find it easy and pleasant to talk to you. I wish the country a blessing!"
"Blessing Queen!" Mancini shook hands with him.
The two continued to move forward with laughter, but the topic had turned into a more relaxed aspect.
An Feng interviewed Mancini to test the other party's bottom line. In the future, it is impossible for the royal family to say that they will not intervene. After all, this is the first key step. If you meet a guy who is stubborn and adheres to the principle of being out of date, the royal family will also establish their own attitude and support.
Now the government's prestige in the hearts of the masses is not as good as the queen. She is the core of the entire country. Once she is dissatisfied with the government, based on the support of the people, even if she removes the prime minister and disbands the parliament, she will not be opposed. But it goes smoothly, and Mancini's choice is wise.
In his opinion, there is no choice here. If you want to develop, besides the royal family has this ability, there is anything else?
Chapter completed!
