La Nueva Ciudad (Open RP)

[Major Jaws]

OOC: Right so, this is a meeting that anyone and everyone can attend and is intended for both government officials and other VIPs (business executives, investors, etc) to join, basically if you have a hunch that they might have an interest in this project, feel free to have them drop in. As a bonus, if we have yet to establish formal relations, this presents itself as a great opportunity to do so. The RP itself will begin Friday, in the meantime feel free to drop official responses here. Also, many thanks to tama for giving me this idea.

OFFICIAL LETTER FROM THE PALACE OF QUINTELIA

To the people of Mundus,

It is an incredible honour to present you with this opportunity. For years have Minister of Trade and Industry Miguel Ibañez, Minister of Public Works Gavielle Cesa, and myself dreamed of this day, where our plan to found a brand new city in Quintelia came to be something greater, and finally, under King Lapu's leadership, this dream has reached into the real world. So, it with great pleasure that I write this invitation to the public.

We formally invite the leaders, political figures, executives and the interested public of Mundus to join us for the opening ceremony of Nueva Lungsod City in Dagohoy province. There will be many opportunities to ask questions to the Quintelian leaders and executives, as well as plan future developments within the new city. We dearly appreciate your consideration as you read this open letter and sincerely hope to see you in Nueva Lungsod City.

Yours truly,

Minister of Internal Affairs Josepha Ladra-Buenarbe

Dear Minister,

As the Minister of Foreign Affairs, I inform you that the Haalglandian Prime Minister, Mr Andrey Romse would like to join the opening ceremony in Quintelia.

Our people would like to strengthen relations between the two countries for seeking a path of mutual cooperation. We are glad that you have finished the great project of La Ciudad Nueva.

Yours Sincerely,

Minister of Foreign Affairs Jan Sipk

Dear Mrs. Ladra-Buenarbe,

It is with such an honor and pleasure that I hereby announce the attendance of my wife    Christina McKee and I Ulrich Fava, CEO of Umbrella Corporation, to behold the grand opening of the city of Nueva Lungsod; After witnessing the successful launch of the common project vehicle between Umbrella and Dalton Motors, I'd say it's time to widen that cooperation to greater frontiers than one could ever imagine before. I hope that all those attending, including us, will have a great time with lovely company and perhaps gain new contacts, acquaintances and even friends. As a side note, the Fava family does have a majority stake as well as being the founders of several other prominent companies (Oceanic Worldwide, Fava Organisation, GLENCORE, YUM! Brands, PREMIER, WEAZEL, Blume Corporation, KRAPEA, ProLaps, Psyche Games and Atomic), thus I'm able to represent them as well...

Take Care and God Bless, Sincerely,

Ulrich Fava, CEO of Umbrella Corporation

[Achkaerin]

Mrs Mrs. Ladra-Buenarbe,

It is unfortunate that due to pressing matters of state and international concern that I will personally be unable to attend this significant event, however I wish this city every success on the day and in the future. In my place I'm sure my niece Princess Cerys, Business Minister Percy Higgins and Minister of Science and Technology Kathryn Deed will prove more than capable Achkaerin representatives. Also I can't speak for Achkaerinese businesses but I would expect some of them to turn up if only to poke their noses around the place.

Signed

Emperor Peter Azurewind

[Holy King]

Dear, Josepha Ladra-Buenarbe

It has come to attention that you are showing your great city to the world. With Quintella being relatively close neighbors with rather frozen relations we shall send Crown Prince, Duke Dietrich to the event.

 

May the gods brighten the way,
Walter Senft

Chiyoko Biotech Head Office

Her Excellency, Minister of Internal Affairs Josepha Ladra-Buenarbe

It's exciting to see our friends in Southern Ardia pursue their ambitions to such a degree, and have the brains to execute them successfully. Your project has piqued our interests to a degree that few others have managed in the century that this company has existed.

I will see myself as ambassador on behalf of Chiyoko Biotech to this opening ceremony, and am very much interested in pursuing development in Nueva Lungsod City.

Junior Director of Chiyoko Biotech

"For heaven's sake, we've got some of the most powerful people in all of Mundus, and you're saying that you can't make or work?" Minister Josepha shouted at the worker who just sighed. The middle piece of the terminal, a cylindrical glass that rises from floor to ceiling and would display a hologram showing all flights that are to and from Quintelia. The device was provided by the Umbrella Corporation. The Minister continued. "If you find a way to light it up, I'm going to have you promoted to a construction manager." Minister Josepha sternly said.

"But Madame, the firm would fire me if I disobey their commands, and their only rule is to 'not plug in the big hologram because it will destroy it.' I'm very sorry, your excellence, but I'm afraid I can't do that." The worker said as he put his tools down. The Minister stared at him like she was the queen. "Except, of course, if i let you ask my higher-ups." He nervously smiled as he handed over his radio transceiver.

After a brief talk with the construction supervisor himself, the Minister then called two more workers to help finish the hologram. As she backed away from the terminal and proceeded to run to the terminal gates. Going out into the tarmac, she wiped off the sweat from her face and met with the other Ministers. "Quite humid, isn't it?" Josepha said as she began fanning herself. Other than the three ministers, there were also CEOs of companies waiting such as Omarelle Dizon of Dizon Farms and Ian Dalton of Dalton Motors. Standing there, Minister of Trade and Industry Miguel Ibañez in boredom whispered to the Minister of Public Works Gavielle Cesa. "I hope this project of ours is more successful than that woman's marriage." Both men laughed as the first plane landed on the tarmac.

[Libby]

The first plane to land would probably be the least expected, it was the private jet of the recently publically outed Niklaus Corrino, his first appointment as an open member of the Bene Gesserit faith. He had heard there was oppurtunities here to get involved in some projects and he was keen that should a chance present itself the Bene Gesserit could take advantage. He'd brought with him his younger brother Nathanial, he didn't like the idea of business and diplomacy, he was a soldier first and foremost and this meeting had him worried, what if the Morelanders arrived? The final member of his party was Verspasian Atreides, the son of the influential Bene Gesserit Atreides clan, he ran an Archetecture company in Achkaerin and along with Niklaus was keen to make a go of any opportunity that presented itself. Each of the three men proudly displayed their Bene Gesserit emblem on their jacket pocket and as Nathanial went first followed by the elder Corrino, perhaps the most influential of the faith's Holy Houses.

"Minister Ibanez, a pleasure to meet you, Mister Cesa" Niklaus extended a hand to both before introducing the two others. "I'm here on behalf of the Corrino Foundation, we're always looking for chances for investment in several fields, your invitation intrigued me, this is Verspasian, he runs the Atreides House of Archetecture , he too see's some mutually beneficial opportunities so we look forward to discussing them with you."

[Norgeras]

Heinrich Wingert had picked some of his most ambitious architects to represent the Wingert Building Cooperation for this venture. It wasn't necessary for him to get actual contracts, but showing the world what they in theory could and would be willing to built was more than enough. The whole trip was an Advertisement Plattform, and he would sure as hell use it.

The Airship had been towed in on a more distant corner of the Airport, avoiding Turbulence from the incoming flights, before an entourage of Organic Cotton Needle Stripe Suit Businessmen marched down the gangway behind Heinrich, making their way straight to the Terminal, Coffers filled with sketches, ideas, models they had been working on mid flight. The 3D-Printer on Board had allowed them to finish work on the fly here.

"Keep an eye on the Ministers. These People don't value their own Country enough to consider hard truths about Enviroment. We are here to show off how Decadence beyond believe and Nature can go hand in hand." Heinrich firmly briefed his Men, before entering the Hall, making his way Towards the waiting committee:

"What a nice day." Heinrich greeted them, holding his hand out to the Natives: "I am sorry we came a little on short notice, Heinrich Wingert, CEO of Wingert Building Corp. from the Empire of Neu Uburzis."

[Achkaerin]

Cerys was nervous, this was her first solo overseas Royal Engagement, her first time on her own representing Achkaerin, she was the lead delegate so if there were any talks on a Government to Government level she was the one who needed to talk, in this she was ably supported by the Business Minister Percy Higgins and the Minister of Science and Technology Kathryn Deed. This trio covered the national stuff, there would also likely be a few of Achkaerin's business leaders taking a look around the city and they'd unquestionably pop up at the right time.

Deciding to get things going Cerys took the lead and headed out of the plane and into the terminal

"Good day" it was Percy who did the introductions "I'm Percy Higgins the Achkaerinese Business Minister, my colleague Kathryn Deed who is the Minister of Science and Technology, and this is her Imperial Highness Princess Cerys Azurewind."
"A pleasure." Cerys said "There are a few Achkaerinese CEO's and business leaders around the place or so I'm told, no doubt they'll pop up at some point."

[The Young Pope]

Ulrich Fava, CEO of Umbrella Corporation + numerous other companies,
an influential member of the Fava Family, along with his trusting and noble wife Christina McKee finally arrived in one of Nueva Lungsod's airport terminals being escorted by their own security to meet and greet upon arrival their Quintelian hosts; Ulrich was very much pleased that he, naturally, was invited to this spectacular grand opening and key events taking place in this new city. The Favas being Bene Gesserit as their Corrino counterparts couldn't however reveal their true faith, after all ever since the first generation of their family restarted their lives in ES after being forced in exile, they adopted the Celestian Catholic faith out of societal influences as well as economic benefits within the Church State; they were at least happy that BG members who once had to hide their fath may now actively and publicy endorse it.

"Great to see you again My Quintelian friends, it's an honor and pleasure to be here...Oh I can smell greater times for Umbrella Corporation once we've settle down here Must say.." he greeted the hosts upon arrival.

[Forever Alone]

The interior of the private jet was silent save for the few murmurs that could be heard occasionally emanating from the security forces on board and every so often the rustling of paper. Matvey Naumov, the Minister of Foreign Relations of the USRSDG, looked at the source of the paper sounds and frowned slightly. The truth was the woman who made these sounds always unnerved him. He wasn't sure why but the fact that he had watched her grow from being a cheerful and laughing child who was fond of pulling pranks on him when her father let her roam free around the offices of his ministry, into the cold, distant and seemingly emotionless woman who now sat before him made him feel somewhat sad. The woman was Tsetsiliya Valentina Kuznetsov, the 26 year old daughter of Maksim Kuznetsov, one of the three founders of the USRSDG and its current leader. She currently served as the Minister of Trade of the USRSDG, a position she had proved worthy of on numerous occasions. To Naumov the efficiency she showed when she first gained her position was somewhat frightening, she always seemed to be working, he had never seen her drink; even now the Scotch she had been served by the stewardess was untouched, what unnerved him most of all was the fact that he could count on one hand the number of times he'd seen her smile since she'd become a minister. And those smiles, as nice as they were, had seemed off to Naumov, they lacked sincerity and almost seemed sinister to him. Tsetsiliya seemed to have noticed his staring and looked up from the book she was reading; "Is there a problem Minister Naumov?".
Naumov was startled by the sudden breaking of the silence but kept it from showing on his face; "No, everything is fine Miss Kuznetsov". Naumov responded calmly, he may have felt uneasy but he was experienced enough not to let it show. As Tsetsiliya scratched the scar on her left cheek and again focused on her book Naumov turned his attention to the third minister on the plane, Agafya Yevgeniya Tereshkova, the Minister of Foreign Trade of the USRSDG. Like Tsetsiliya she was a good looking younger woman but with blond hair and blue eyes as opposed to black hair and grey eyes like Tsetsiliya. Also unlike Tsetsiliya, who wore a military parade uniform, Agafya wore a normal business dress suit. In fact, despite the fact the two women often worked with one another, they had next to nothing in common. Agafya was a cheerful woman of 32 years of age who almost always had a smile on her face; seeing her sitting next to the expressionless Tsetsiliya made her joyful demeanor all the more apparent.
"Miss Tereshkova, I suggest you hold back on the drinks; we'll be landing soon"
Hearing Naumov's comment Agafya put down her drink and gave the older man a bright smile.
"You know me Matvey, I won't go overboard especially with the reputation of our nation and its leader Maksim on the line" the woman responded with a chuckle. Naumov knew one of the reasons she had gotten her position was due to her unyielding devotion to the communist party and its leader. Naumov had his suspicions that the reason she got along with Tsetsiliya so well was due to Agafya's almost unhealthy obsession with the younger girl's father. Just as Naumov was about to say something else the seat-belt light came on with a ding and the pilot's voice informed the passengers that they would be beginning their descent. Naumov quickly buckled his seat-belt and frowned when he saw Agafya clumsily buckle hers, she may not have gone overboard but she was clearly feeling the effects of the alcohol. Tsetsiliya marked her page and buckled up remaining expressionless the whole time. After adjusting her seat-belt she apparently noticed some lint on the right sleeve of her uniform and picked it off rubbing her middle finger and thumb together to remove the unwanted debris. Noticing Naumov staring once again Tsetsiliya looked his way and with a slight tilt of the head smiled at him; Naumov smiled back despite the unease that her fake feeling smile caused him. As Tsetsiliya stowed her book away Naumov focused on the task that lay ahead for the three of them.

Dear Minister Ladra-Buenarbe,

On behalf of His Excellency, President Dominic T. Colbert, I would like to accept your invitation to the opening ceremony of Nueva Lungsod City in Dagohoy province. Pardclinese investors are eager to strengthen economic ties with Quintelia through numerous investments which they are optimistic in being fruitful. The Pardclinese government wishes for great fortune to the new city in the years to come.

Sincerely,

Saul G. Hagen
Minister of Foreign Affairs

OOC: Those who sent a letter are presumed to have arrived
One-by-one, each guest was welcomed by the Ministers and was lead to a room where staff would make them wear safety gear such as a hard helmet, reflective vests, and what not. "We wouldn't want to invite our beloved guests from all the construction work ongoing here. It's a protocol given by Minister Cesa so." A staff explained to the envoys sent by nations and companies. The same staff also explained do's and don'ts to them. "...And lastly, although this is not written in the safety codes, I would highly recommend to not anger Minister Josepha Buenarbe-Ladra. I'm saying this based on experience." He smiled as he fitted the last vest to the Pardclinian Minister. The emissaries were led outside.


"... And hey, did you see the commie minister?" Josepha asked her colleagues, with Miguel Ibañez asking. "Which one? The old man or the depressed looking one?" Josepha was about to laugh before being interpreted by Gavielle Cesa. "They both look depressed, what's the difference? That's what communism does to everyone, make them suffer." He raised his voice and Josepha shushed him. "You know they might hear you! They came to finally have formal relations, not to have a war." The three became quiet as the local CEOs pointed at the foreign dignitaries who wore the same outfit as almost anyone in the city.

"I officially welcome you to Nueva Lungsod." Josepha said to the guests as she began walking. "This airport would be the best in Quintelia, which would be able to serve at most one million people a month." She boasted as they reached the building's mezzanine. The glass column that reached from floor to ceiling lit up as the crowd entered, as if it was on cue. "And here, we can see the Nueva Airport's main feature." She pause for a while, smiling at the workers below. Gavielle Cesa then continued the exposition. "Now, this hologram displays reach commercial flight in Mundus. So far, only Quintelian commercial planes and commercial planes that have entered our airspace are shown. For this, I'll have to thank Umbrella Corp of Ulrich Fava for letting us buy such a technological marvel." He pointed at the CEO and gave a bow as a sign of thanks. "Anyways, we wouldn't want to longer here any longer, as the construction work in order terminals and wings would need to resume construction." He continued as they walked towards the exit door and a rush of hot and humid air striking their faces. A few meters away was a monorail train station. As they all waited for the train, the Ministers moved away from the crowd and huddled together near a phone on loudspeaker. "Are you servicing today?" Josepha asked one of the five train operators, who at that time of the day, was the only one driving. "Well yeah, tomorrow's your meeting right? Yeah, I know." Sighing in unison, the Ministers groaned and the operator realized that he screwed up. "Uhh, yes, sorry about that. I'll busy drop of these workers in all stations and go to you." Josepha ended the call and with a frustrated voice, asked. "So, what are we going to do now? We cannot go back inside because of all the dust inside and I can't stand this heat outside." The two men looked at each other and Cesa replied. "We vote for 'we wait outside'." They say back at a bench and sighed.

[Norgeras]

Heinrich instantly had some of his staff come to his aid, fanning air to him like a flock of schoolboys swarming the Quarterback. Sitting back, he started making notes: Humidity troublesome. Threat of Corrosion. Could use as advantage for Green City Concepts.

"Any suggestions?" he glanced over to his flock of fanboys, tilting his head: "Huge Statues. Those never get out of Style." one said, before another added: "Green Pathways. Intercept the City with a grid of Walkways and Parks. Suburban feeling in the middle of the City." a third one tilted his head: "Green skyscrapers. With a Park Avenue running across the Rooftops, maybe an artificial River as well. City trouble deep down below, A serene Safe  Haven on Top."

Heinrich nodded in a slow motion, his eyes glancing to the local CEO's: "Don't get your hope sup to high, they couldn't even get us transportation. Probably blew half their budget for that shiny silly holographic Display. It will probably be broken every other week with the Humidity coroding the Electronics, or cost a Billion in Maintenance every year."

Leaning back he tilted his head: "I get a feeling this could be more my sisters kind of Project. Tons of money vanishing down dark alleys. I hope my first impression proves wrong, but who knows."

[Holy King]

    Duke Dietrich, Duke of the Fenneishislandstaaten, and crown prince to the throne, was sitting on a bench of a decent make along side his Imperial Advisor,  Matthias Raske. Both of them wore black suits with royal colors on the cufflinks, although Matthias wore a golden shoulder cord, knights star, and a captain's cap. "The train is seemingly going to take forever and we're stuck here in this damn heat." The crown prince sighed and rubbed his temples. Matthias looked at him before calmly saying, "It'll be fine, Your Grace. I'm sure this project will at the very least meet your expectations." Dietrich sat back up and sighed once more. "Hopefully it will."

    "Your Grace, would this time not be the best chance of learning of where our assets have gone into?" The prince looked at his advisor. "I suppose you're right. I'll go ask our hosts about some of the areas we'll be seeing." The prince turned and began to walk towards the people who had so humbly asked for diplomats to come and visit the city.

[The Young Pope]

"Lovely...Damn foolish idiots who can't get a train started, blimey me. Well seems I've got nothing to other than to help out...Yo, you guys need any help over there? I may be the CEO of Umbrella wearing dancy suits every day and smutting champagne but at least I got my skill set left and tolerate one or two cans of resin oil." Ulrich Fava exclaimed with his wife having no other choice than to agree it seemed, well if he were to claim all the glory oh hell no, a Bene Gesserit Lady letting the man do all of the job, "I don't think so hubby dubby, how about this could be a couple thing eh?" Christina McKee insisted so much that he as well didn't have a choice other than to bring along his potentially dangerous wife...well at least that's how it all worked out in bed.

(OOC: Finally getting back. Using a new character that will be added soon to my own posts here in TIO)

Men of the Sirinisian military often addressed him as the Colonel of Asteion while women considered him as the Hero of the Sioropr. His name was Eifrig Adalwolfa and he had earned his blood by the virtue of his mother and father who were from different groups in Sirinisi. Despite that, which had given him some troubles in his childhood, he overcame that when he made the decision to enter the Sirinisian military. Today, he was here for a simple visit. Or not.

The man took slow, deep breaths as he combed his long, uncut hair that was blessed with the colors of the night sky and the colors of the soil. He then stopped and reached for a pair of scissors that lay on his desk and cut his hair until he was sure that he wouldn't look like a woman from Sirinisi. No woman would cut their own hair and no man would have their own hair cut by another. As tradition was, he followed. Soon enough, he put down the scissors and picked up an electronic head shaver and used that to clean up. Minutes later, he had washed his head, put on a new uniform and attached his badge to his chest pocket and after a little bit of action here and there, went out of the hotel room and went on to look for his aide who was waiting in the lobby.

Just hours before, he and his aide, Colonel Lotte of Roeiatean descent, had come to this city on a matter that simply begged them to go and relax. For the sake also of re-establishing connections with the outside world, a visit like this could do wonders for the public, the government and military of the Sirinisian people.

His aide was standing in the lobby, wearing her scarlet dress uniform while he wore his dark green dress uniform. Both however wore the badges of the Army, signifying them as officers of the infantry due to the rifles on their badges. Both greeted each other with a handshake instead of the usual salute as they didn't want to appear too militaristic in this foreign land.
