Reborn in 2010, the AI ​​in my mind is too powerful.

The atmosphere in the meeting room immediately changed, and the other officials sat up straight, ready to watch the show.

Abercrombie narrowed his eyes, pondered for a moment, and said, "Even if Mr. Chen bought an island, he's still not a U.S. citizen. What right do you have to interfere in American politics?"

Chen Yiran shook his head: "I didn't interfere. I just wanted a good business environment. Actually, it's your own actions that caused the current political turmoil. Hmph, you racist, I'll post some tweets later and expose you properly."

"How am I being racist? In our home country, we advocate non-racism and political support for minorities. But on the island of Hawaii, whites are a smaller minority. What's wrong with me allocating resources to them?"

"Am I ignoring the surveys? The white population is still second. If you're really going to implement administrative bias, it should be directed at Indigenous people!"

"Most indigenous people prefer to work in tourism-related industries. Tourists only feel like they've truly arrived in Hawaii when they see indigenous-looking staff in hotels. Their income isn't low, and very few of them are willing to go into politics, so how can I be biased?"

"Hmph, that's just sophistry. The whole country is a unified entity, so why should Hawaii be treated differently? I don't care, I want a guarantee that the governor will recuse himself from this matter. I don't want tourists and players from all over the world to think that Hawaii is led by a racist governor."

"You want me to resign?"

Chen Yiran couldn't be so direct, so he gestured, and Amy Zegart handed him a piece of paper.

Abercrombie glanced down at it; it was an apology letter, essentially apologizing in his own words for all his previous actions—basically, he was kneeling before someone. Sending this was worse than resigning; at least that would have been more dignified.

He suppressed his anger and said, "I thought it was those Japanese guys stirring things up behind the scenes, but it seems you were the one in charge. I couldn't have issued this, I couldn't have resigned, and I wouldn't have signed the SB229 impeachment procedure law."

The process is on my side. You can't kick me out until next year! I'll use my methods to make it impossible for you to move an inch in Hawaii! I'm the governor, and this is my state!

I am not without supporters. If this really escalates to the higher levels, the party leadership will support me. Making me step down now would be a slap in the face to the Communist Party!

Also, although I don't like to say it, I have a very good relationship with the current president. I can accept not being elected next year, but I absolutely cannot accept such a humiliating withdrawal. He will support me.

At this point, Amy Zeggart spoke up, saying with a smile, "The President was born on the island of Hawaii, and his parents have many acquaintances here, not just you. You don't need to try to build connections."

Furthermore, I believe the president is a competent politician; he will understand that offending the entire mainstream of Hawaii is irreversible. Self-correction is essential for the Democratic Party to maintain its advantage next year.

Amy Zeggart was essentially taking a gamble. In reality, Abercrombie and the president had an exceptionally good relationship; one could say he watched the president grow up, was his earliest political mentor, and a staunch supporter. However, the closer the relationship, the more likely one is to fear that their actions might affect the other party.

Chen Yiran disliked this kind of direct political debate, so he steered the conversation directly to money.

"Make a choice. You can choose to resign gracefully, or sign the SB229 impeachment procedure act and gamble that more people will still trust you. I can accept either of these options."

But if you disagree, I will just reveal that a multi-million dollar esports project was originally planned to be launched in Hawaii, but it couldn't go through because of the corrupt practices of the governor and his officials.

This isn't just about tens of thousands of tourists; gaming and esports are a rapidly growing economic sector. If we can successfully establish Hawaii as an esports mecca, that in itself would be a huge boost to Hawaii's economy.

It can attract a large number of tourists and countless e-sports players. Furthermore, through the competition, we can engage in friendly exchanges with other countries around the world, all of which represent significant achievements.

Make your choice.

The officials present were somewhat clueless; they had been observing the situation from the sidelines, but Chen Yiran's words had drawn them in as well. This wasn't good news for them either; the public would certainly criticize the governor, but they wouldn't stop criticizing them either.

Several people stared coldly at the governor, hoping he would make a rational choice.

But to their disappointment, Neil Abercrombie was no ordinary politician.

He graduated with a master's degree from the University of Hawaii at Manoa in 1964 and then entered politics. Due to his mediocre abilities and the fact that he attended a relatively ordinary school, it took him more than a decade and several failures before he became a Hawaii state representative and then a senator.

However, his political career was very bumpy. He was one of the rare people who, after failing to become a senator, went on to become a congressman, failed again, and then had to return to be a Honolulu city councilor.

When ordinary politicians experience this decline in status within three years, they usually just retire.

However, his early weightlifting career continued to influence him, and he persisted in doing strongman-level sports until he was sixty years old.

He wasn't someone easily defeated, so he rallied, was re-elected to the House of Representatives, and eventually became the governor of Hawaii. He possessed the tenacity of an idealist, as well as the struggles of a politician.

With only a year left in his governorship and facing various pressures, his strongman spirit swelled within him. He slammed his fist on the table twice and even smashed the cup beside him to the ground.

He probably thought he was just venting.

But Nuno, who was behind him, was startled. He immediately darted from behind Chen Yiran to the front, looking at Abercrombie with hostility.

After a moment of hesitation, Chen Yiran decided to escalate the situation, shouting in a somewhat panicked voice, "The governor has gone mad! He's going to hit people!"

Then, the state government staff on the first floor watched in shock as the twenty-odd Lanai Island security guards who had been waiting outside in a friendly manner suddenly changed their expressions, all drew their guns, and went straight up to the second floor, barging into the conference room.

The police officers stationed there, seeing the man's menacing appearance, decisively retreated. The captain in charge didn't even report it.

The people opposite me are all from Lanai Island, and their combat uniforms are printed with the new logo that Lanai Island introduced last year. It consists of an orange background representing the indigenous elements, with a dog's head made of preserved egg printed on it.

Since last year, the police system on Lanai Island has been receiving large donations from the other party. If something really happens, he thinks it's better to pretend he didn't see it. Anyway, the other party hasn't drawn their gun yet, and even if they did, as long as it doesn't go off, he doesn't plan to interfere.

Besides, he had already heard the helicopters approaching. If something really happened, the garrison would have to handle it; the police were simply not qualified.

Inside the meeting room, Abercrombie looked at the fighters who had stormed in and said disdainfully, "What, you actually dare to attack the government? Go ahead and kill me if you dare!"

Chen Yiran ignored him. Surrounded by layers of people, he stuck his head out and said to the other officials present, "I think I might have overreacted, but look at the governor's size. If he really comes over and hits me, I can't just stand there and take it, can I? You will all testify for me, right?"

"Governor! You acted impulsively! How could you hit someone!"

"Governor, you can't resort to violence no matter what. Look, you've smashed the table."

"Abercrombie, there were seven pairs of eyes there that saw you hit someone. I think you should have some self-respect."

"Yes, Abercrombie, just resign gracefully and let this matter be as if it never happened. I believe Mr. Chen Yiran will forgive you."

Chen Yiran felt the situation was about right: "I'll wait a day. If there's still no news by tomorrow, I'll call the police and accuse the governor of attempting to physically assault a legitimate taxpayer during a meeting."

After Chen Yiran left under heavy protection, Abercrombie looked at the few people around him with mocking expressions and made a final struggle: "I will not resign, but I will sign the SB229 impeachment procedure law. I will only be impeached, not resign."
