The Liangguang Clique's progress report!
Chen is most likely to succeed Lu Rongting in the hands of the AI.
The Liangguang/Austria-Hungary dev promises to try to put in some form of easter egg for the Danubian Federation/United States of Greater Austria co-existing with United Provinces-united China.
The Liangguang Progress Report is probably the first progress report on the China rework featuring a path leading to genuine democracy - and the way the conversation was phrased, it sounds like only one of Liangguang's paths lead there, so it sounds worryingly like either the United Provinces or Chen Mingshu's Minquan ideals and promotion of local democracy will fall short of hopes.
