Chapter 1618 Investigation Four
Mexico City, State Guesthouse.
When she woke up early in the morning, Anji lay lazy on the comfortable bed and didn't want to move. She lived in the highest-level suite, and all the supplies and facilities in the room were decorated according to the standards before the Cataclysm, and the luxury was no worse than the private houses of North American powerful people.
Since ordinary materials can be transferred unlimitedly, the lives of middle and senior management of the Aurora Legion have been greatly improved, and this national guesthouse has also been completely renewed. Pillows and thin quilts are finally no longer used goods, and all kinds of supplies are the best.
After being baptized in the night school last night, Anji's mind was in chaos. She stayed in bed for a while and didn't think about it, but suddenly she heard a radio sound from the balcony. The Aurora Legion's radio station started on time around 6:30 in the morning, and it was the morning news time around 7:00.
"Last night, the commander of the Legion visited Ninth Street for inspection and had a cordial conversation with the students in the street night school. He asked the students in detail about their gains and difficulties in their studies, and expressed his approval of the patience and meticulousness of the night school faculty and staff. He reiterated the status of education in the development of the Legion,..."
When Anji heard the news, she immediately sat up from the bed. She lifted the quilt and ran to the balcony with barefoot. She grabbed a coat to cover her convex figure under her silk pajamas, and pushed open the glass window of the balcony with bare thighs.
There is a big electric speaker on the street outside the window, which seems to have been installed in the morning. The speaker is playing news, and it seems that it will not be interrupted all day.
Chandra and Eugene lived next door to Angie. They both ran to the balcony when they heard the radio, looking at this with a bit of freshness and curiosity..., a so rustic promotional method.
After listening for a while, Eugene cursed: "It's so despicable and shameless. This is brainwashing propaganda, and it is to turn people into fools without self-thinking ability. This official argument is really disgusting. The media should be independent and should have the right to supervise, not a government lackey."
Eugene suffered a great blow last night. The learning attitude of night school students and their enthusiasm for the Legion Commander made him completely unacceptable. Now he even jumped up and scolded when he heard the radio.
An Ji was listening quietly. After the "leader is very busy", the announcer's tone suddenly turned cold and he reported several punishment news.
Some gang leaders who have captured the past oppressed the people will be held, and the trial will be held live. Some people are investigated for embezzlement of relief materials, and Attorney General Dave of the Legion expressed severe punishment; some people attempted to gather to make trouble, but were suppressed on the spot.
Then there are reports of new changes in Mexico City. For example, a certain block has been cleaned up; a certain place has been repaired; some people have been given residences, resettlement and relief; armed thugs in a certain place have been eliminated, and social order has been greatly improved.
Eugene was still scolding, and the words in her mouth were dictatorial, cruel, brainwashed, and foolish people. Angie turned her head and looked at her teacher Chandra. The old economist said after pondering for a while: "Although I feel that this method is quite backward, I think it is very effective."
Eugene immediately retorted, "A roaring loudspeaker can only disgust people. What effect can it have? Our Brotherhood has started to broadcast cable TV, and our news reports and program content is much richer than this kind of broken broadcast."
"Abundant?" Chandra smiled and shook his head, "How large can our cable network cover? At most, it is arranged in the city and only serves the middle and high-level levels. The Aurora Legion's broadcasting system faces the social base with a huge number of people, which can easily cover cities and villages."
A broken speaker is not worth much money, and this is also the combat preparation supplies Zhou Qingfeng got. At the beginning, he didn't know what it would be for these old-fashioned speakers? He just felt that the supporting wires and high-power broadcast equipment could not be wasted, and now...
Just come and have a broadcast in every village... Anyway, it is not expected to be widely available for TV. Zhou Qingfeng doesn’t have that much money to mess with the TV network, and no one makes enough programs. Radio is too simple, and it can take a day to find someone to tell a story.
The team of installing electric speakers has begun to spread out in full swing. There is a must-have for every street in the city. You can hear the radio from the Aurora Legion when you walk there. If you want to talk about brainwashing..., then wash it every day.
After the "It's awful abroad" session, the song started to be played, and it was actually a Chinese song or a revolutionary song "Sailing the Sea by the Helmsman" and the song film in the combat preparation supplies was this song, nothing else.
"A bunch of poor people, they are really a bunch of poor people." Eugene didn't understand Chinese, but his face turned red when he heard the singing, and he felt like the sound of the magic sound was in his ears. He couldn't help but not want to listen, and the electric speaker was loud. Finally, he forced him to retreat to the room and close the balcony glass door tightly.
Anji hummed along the tune for a while, and said to Chandra on the other balcony: "Teacher, I feel it is necessary for us to learn this publicity model."
"Oh?" Chandra didn't know what she was thinking, but was stunned when she heard this, "Do you think it's feasible?"
Anji continued seriously: "Our propaganda media is too incompetent. They are indeed independent and report whatever they want. But do you know what news is being broadcast every day by the TV station my father paid for?
There was a riot somewhere, and a certain department of the government was suspected of corruption. What clothes did a socialite wear today and who they interact with. Yes, that socialite is often me.
I remember that the Brotherhood TV reported not this at the beginning, but the reporters and editors quickly degenerated. They became extremely philosophical and vulgar, and liked to attract attention.
Negative, urban, and gossiping, those media are completely wasting the funds my father gave them. But what are the reports of the Aurora Legion?
Leaders care about life at the bottom, government restores new achievements in society, and new improvements in people's lives. The tone of news is very healthy and positive.
You can say that this kind of news is brainwashing and self-deception. But it is very valuable. It makes people have hope for the future and have a sense of identity with the government and leaders. Our media not only does not help, but instead criticizes us every day. When I go back, I will immediately ask for enhanced news censorship."
As the so-called "tiger father has no dog daughter", Anji has a fearless aura of daring to think, breaking the convention and being brave to innovate. She even pointed to the street speaker and said: "We should learn this propaganda method. The media cannot only focus on middle and high-level officials, but also on the bottom."
These words sounded insightful, Chandra nodded, but quickly shook her head again.
"You don't agree with my point of view?" Anji frowned.
Chandra said after pondering for a while: "I also feel that our media is too free and the news reported is worthless. It is necessary to strengthen news control, but it seems unlikely to allow those high-ranking media people to report on the life at the bottom. And..."
The old economist paused for three seconds and said, "Do you want our propaganda department to hang speakers everywhere for broadcasting? This is probably a bit difficult and not feasible."
"Why?" Anji was puzzled, "The broadcasting system can't cost much money, and the Aurora Legion can do it, so we can do it."
Chandra had no wry smile for the princess who had only ideas and no practical experience. He shrugged and said, "Believe it or not, we really hang the speaker on the street, and it will be destroyed in less than a few hours. What is destroyed is the bottom of the society you want to promote and educate."
Ah..., that's true.
Angie immediately had a picture of a speaker that had just been installed before the broadcast started, but a few idle black people, Latinos or other bullshits gathered below. These boring people looked at each other and began to smash the speaker with stones to make fun of it.
"It's so damn, that trash is so damn. Why can't they be as honest as the residents ruled by Victor?" Anji suddenly felt that he was thinking well, but the reality was completely different.
