Turn a blind eye!
The world has always been so unfair. When the British carried out massacres in India, they would keep claiming that they were civilized people. A few years ago, when England fell into starvation due to reduced crop yields, Queen Victoria would be heartbroken.
She shed tears. But when millions of people in Ireland are starving to death, Her Majesty the Queen will continue to spend huge sums of money to hold her balls and continue to have dates with her lovers. The death of the Irish will not let her drop a drop.
tears.
The British...have a double standard!
"Because we are not white! If we do the same thing, it will be a genocide against white people, and it will even arouse opposition throughout Europe, which will also give the British an excuse to intervene -"
Although he was a little helpless, Zhu Xianhai had to admit that the British troublemakers did have their own merits. What were they best at?
It's never about war! It's about diplomacy, it's about being a troublemaker!
"Once the British have this excuse, they can not only unite South American countries, but also unite Europe to oppose South China, or even invade South China!"
Zhu Xianhai didn't know whether Nanhua would face the Eight-Nation Allied Forces by then, but it would definitely face the Allied Forces of more than a dozen countries.
One against the world?
Apart from that old woman who has this courage, who else in the world has such courage?
Courage is easy to sing, but it doesn’t end well!
"So we need to be the side of justice!"
Staring at the documents on the table, Zhu Xianhai sneered,
"We need another battlefield in Europe!"
Open up another battlefield!
Of course it is a battlefield of public opinion!
“We need to fight a war of opinion in Europe!”
"War of public opinion?"
"Yes, that's right, it's a war of public opinion. We want to make the atrocities of Brazil and Argentina public in Europe, so that all Europeans can see their atrocities."
"Will this work?"
"Don't worry, the vast majority of ordinary people are kind and full of conscience,"
Of course, they are also ignorant and very easily incited. No, it should be said that they are very emotional. Their emotions are very easy to be provoked, so you can definitely take advantage of them!
Zhu Xianhai said.
"We need to convince Europeans how cruel and barbaric Brazilians and Argentines are. We need to make them sympathize with Paraguayans and be enemies of Brazilians and Argentines. In this way, we will have no chance of conflict with them in the future.
When the time comes, European public opinion will be on our side. Perhaps public opinion cannot influence the country's will, but public opinion can be our boost!"
is that useful?
Zhu Xianhai was unsure, but he felt it was necessary to verify it. After all, war never discriminates against means.
In any case, let's dress ourselves up first as angels, no, as civilized people. As for Argentines and Brazilians, of course they are barbaric and brutal.
"Can we do it?"
Qian Zizhuang felt a little unsure.
"It's a newspaper, it's a reporter."
Zhu Xianhai smiled slightly.
"There are newspapers all over Europe, and they are all journalists. They should not mind the "advertising fees" we provide, and of course they don't mind publishing some news related to the Paraguay War. Of course, we can also acquire some newspapers and buy some
Newspapers to control public opinion.”
Suddenly, Zhu Xianhai's words stopped, and he realized that this was an opportunity!
An opportunity to control public opinion in European countries, perhaps not to mention controlling public opinion, but at least to guide the direction of public opinion and make it develop in a direction that is beneficial to itself.
public opinion!
It is a weapon in itself. For Zhu Xianhai from the 21st century, how could he not know how powerful this weapon is.
It is so powerful that it can even destroy a country!
In history, how did Britain get the United States to join the war during World War I? It relied on the fabrication of a "Zimmermann Telegram" to arouse public sentiment in the United States. Overnight, Americans changed their views on staying away from the war in Europe.
, and then got involved in the war. During World War II, how did Fatty Qiu make the Americans who were deeply harmed by the European War willingly send their troops again? He spent a lot of money to change the American public opinion circle bit by bit.
It changed Americans' attitude towards the European War. But what about Soviet Russia? They used articles published by left-wing journalists to reverse Americans' attitude towards Soviet Russia and win assistance from the United States.
In short, if you win the war of public opinion, half of the war will be won!
There are so many successful examples why not take advantage?
How did the British manipulate American public opinion during World War II?
Their method was simple and crude - just throw money at them. At its peak, the British Embassy spent millions of pounds on "advertising expenses" in newspapers and radio!
Looking at Qian Zizhuang, Zhu Xianhai smiled and said,
"The secret chess that the Investigation Department has laid out in various European countries can be put to use!"
…
London in September was the best time of the year. The day was as sunny as usual. As usual, when Pearson came to the restaurant to have breakfast, a young man came to him.
"Mr. Pearson, can I invite you to breakfast? We can talk about something that is beneficial to both of us!"
As a reporter, Pearson looked up at this young man. He looked quite decent in well-dressed clothes, and he should be a rich man.
“I’ll treat you to the best breakfast,”
he added.
"What do you think?"
"why not?"
Pearson smiled and looked at the young man sitting in front of him again. He was an educated and quite wealthy young man.
"Excuse me, what can I do for you?"
"Mr. Pearson, I know that you are the most well-known journalist in London. You have been working for The Times, but you also know that it, like other newspapers, is dead. Now the British press needs to inject fresh energy."
Blood, so just a week ago, I acquired the London Evening Standard, and I hope you can become its editor-in-chief!"
"What!"
Pearson looked at this guy in surprise.
"What are you talking about sir? You bought the Evening Standard?"
"The London Evening Standard" is the largest newspaper in the UK second only to "The Times" in terms of circulation. More than ten years ago, it was sold to whiskey merchant James.
After Johnston. In order to expand the circulation, Johnston also lowered the price to 1 penny. This is also the reason why its circulation is large - because it is cheap.
Now the Evening Standard has actually been bought!
"Yes, I need a new editor-in-chief. I need to change the rigid and dull style of London newspapers. Mr. Pearson, I think you are the best candidate."
Dyson said with a smile.
"So, I would like to hire you as the new editor-in-chief of the Evening Standard. I believe that under your leadership, the Evening Standard will definitely reach a new peak!"
