Chapter 27.25 Cultural Storm

 Chapter 1359 Chapter 25 Cultural Storm

In early December 2620, the "agents massacred high-level executives" in the Watt Building in the Black Sea region attracted global attention.

The most popular "Der Spiegel Investigative" program of the Federal Free Television Station conducted continuous reports. A beautiful host wearing flesh-colored stockings sat down with experts and began to explain the case in a serious manner.

The federal government invited famous detectives from various agencies to investigate, but nothing was found. Well, the incompetent regional federal security department even hired a psychic to learn the so-called truth by channeling the dead. This can only add a few more episodes to this show.

(Please refer to the model of "getting closer to science" where simple things can whet your appetite)

The so-called anonymous person from the political firm on the program spoke anonymously using a virtual avatar: The only clue to the case was the communication card used during the live broadcast on the mobile phone. This mobile phone card seemed to come from within the military.

Beautiful host: "Although I don't know who posted this information yet, I heard that it has something to do with agents. The FBI has been involved in the investigation and there will be results soon."

(The program duration below is all nonsense)

At this time, as a criminal, Wei Keng's focus when watching TV was different from that of the chatty spectators. Now the truth is no longer important, what is important is the impression.

Two important things have happened. The first is that the Federation has completely banned the agent branch, and the second is that the Star Sea Federation has accelerated preparations for war to shift conflicts.

Regarding this, Wei Keng from Guantian Society lamented: "Hey, the trump card of the fleet (Star Sea Federation) has been shown many times, and (all levels of Star Sea Federation) are still playing the trump card?"

It is extremely childish for a person to get carried away with a trump card.

Wei Keng remembered that when he was seven or eight years old, he could not hide anything on his face. Of course, when he became an adult, he would find that what he had on his hands was nothing. He felt proud of himself at that time.

Social death.

If it appears after the fact in the country's overall worldview cognition, it is not as simple as personal social death, but "the childishness of forgetting the past history due to shame, and then continuing to be irresponsible for the future."

After the Star Sea Federation's fleet system was born, the military and political circles seemed to suddenly become arrogant. But this was by no means a sudden change. As early as twenty years ago, the Guantian Society had just been established, and the Xinhuo military armed struggle had just begun.

.

The Star Sea Federation has been preaching on culture. In order to highlight that what Xin Huo is pursuing is "blindness under tyranny and brainwashing," the Star Sea Federation has been continuously promoting the New Life Movement at that time, and forcibly shaping the concept of "refined life" by promoting it.

Xinhuo is an image of backwardness.

This cultural strategy played a very effective "narcotic" effect at the time, and even made the residents under the rule of Guantianshe think that their "life taste" was far inferior to that of the Star Sea Federation, and even forgot about the amount of electricity generated, and the number of roads under the rule of Guantianshe.

The mileage, various machinery, and steel production are growing rapidly, and in some crucial "material production potential" they are no less than those of the Federation.

And today, fifteen years later, such a cultural strategy has made those social intellectuals who ignored the "material production potential" begin to become the backbone of the Star Sea Federation!

Therefore, it is not difficult to understand the Korean flavor that the Star Sea Federation continues to display today from the elite to the middle class and petty bourgeoisie.

Even the most ordinary residents of the fifteen "upper districts" of the Star Sea Federation around the world keep saying that they have a registered residence in a developed district. Of course, behind this confidence is because the "income" of residents in the Star Sea Federation's big cities still maintains the same level as those in the industrial cities of Guantianshe.

Thirty times of.

Wei Keng: The wages of ordinary people in the Star Sea Federation have reached thirty times their salary, and various “virtual investments” have contributed a lot.

The federal currency is worthless in other aspects except that its purchasing power of mashed potatoes and fried chicken drumsticks is equivalent to that of Guantianshe.

For example, the so-called "middle class" areas where the federal government operates the "medical care" and "education" systems cannot guarantee the level of relevant public services. However, in the "economic assessment", these areas are all stable and improving, and all residents are running towards the "new

Life"

Narrator: Under modern medical insurance, the average life expectancy differs by five years, which represents a huge difference in daily health.

Because life is resilient in the prime of life at the age of forty or fifty, but after the age of seventy it will be blown away by a gust of wind.

Therefore, in the average life expectancy of a sixty-year-old, there is a difference of five years between the upper and lower values. It may be that in the forties, one has to rely on painkillers to survive various ailments, and then burps after the age of 60, while the other is that in the fifties

You can still dance square dance at many years old.

According to the latest urban population life expectancy statistics in 2620, the current average life span of the Star Sea Federation is 69 years old, while the current average life span of the Xinhuo Group is 75 years old.

The current problems of the Star Sea Federation are all covered up by the iron wings of the "Invincible Fleet" that are maintaining it in the sky at this time.

…Star Sea Federation TV program advertising dividing line,…

After finishing the current affairs report on the "Black Sea Case", the program background switched.

Beauty host: Now let us return to "Xin Daya". Recently, the pace of people's lives is getting faster and faster. Everyone hopes to have a moment of their own style. Let's take a look at romance.

Mediterranean town.

Wei Keng turned off the video, and the follow-up contains no nutritious content.

"Xindaya" originated from the "New Life Movement" that the federal government competed with ten years ago, emphasizing a series of so-called "elegant" life concepts.

For example, "afternoon tea" (setting aside half an hour in the afternoon to eat dessert and then read the newspaper)

In various federal media, you can often see "faithful and elegant" handsome men and beauties putting on airs and introducing softly: "Breakfast snacks" are also good. Come to the store and order a basket of tea snacks, and then use your silver

Chopsticks, use tea while eating.

In this regard, a certain person said: It is indeed very elegant, but you don't have to work, how can you be so free? I don't believe that in your own company, you can't wait to install a timer in the toilet, and you will arrange afternoon tea time for your employees.

Of course, there is "honesty and elegance" as well as "bad habits" as its opposite.

For example, after the rise of Guantian Society, the killing of "non-cultured livestock" such as rabbit meat, and now the consumption of dog meat, have been labeled cruel by the Star Sea Federation.

As a chef, Wei Keng expressed dissatisfaction with the Guangzhu area that currently belongs to the Xinghai Federation: "Why don't you say, pickling raw is cruel? Live fish and crabs are not killed and can be eaten directly with sauce, and the tongue can enjoy the pleasure of the live meat.

.”

Regarding raw pickling, Wei Keng is a little bit emotional. It is located inland and there is no fresh fish raw. It is said that grapes are sour because they can't eat grapes.

…emotional dividing line…

Wei Keng turned off the video in the Guantian Society and prepared to work, but his mood seemed to be a little fluctuating today. Perhaps it was the constant fluctuations in the world that caused the accumulation of entropy.

Wei Keng: The more I think about it, the angrier I get and want to show off to this hypocritical bourgeoisie!

…the dividing lines of cultural “tyranny”…

In the year 2620, various unrest occurred around the world.

Reforms were carried out within the relative Peace Guantian Society. Because this kind of reform was far less popular than various major international events, no one paid attention to it. However, the literati in eastern Asia fiercely criticized it, believing that "the dust of the times has fallen."

On each of them (them) is a heavy mountain."

Wei Keng complained: Did I criticize you or drag you out to fight? How could there be such a big mountain! - This kind of complaint is filled with happy banter, because it is the right thing to do!

This year, Guantianshe began to charge "heavy taxes" on all profitable entertainment and media fields!

"Heavy taxation" is a circle tax in name! - Wei Keng: Art creation can be collaborative, but it cannot be monopolized by high circles.

For example, if "workshop artists" such as writers and painters meet in the real world during a promotional event, the tax rates of the two people for that year will be superimposed.

Of course, the hardest-hit area is the film and television industry. When the performance industry is on a non-shooting site (offline), if more than ten actors with an annual income of one million meet together (walking on the red carpet), the tax rate will be doubled.

Explanation: Many capital groups complete the "financial integration" of capital in the entertainment industry by collecting "celebrities" and absorb savings by turning "prestige" (traffic) into financial management products. This "circle tax" is to cut off the "circle tax" of capital groups as public figures in society.

"Irrational investment risk driven by ".

The new law of Guantian Society stipulates that if any economic group has economic dealings with multiple well-known cultural figures at the same time, the group will be levied a "circle tax". The reason is that some groups take advantage of the "celebrity effect" and in actual production

Unfair competition in sales.

The reason given by the Ministry of Commerce of Guantianshe is: "The most important thing about a product is its performance. It is illegal to speculate on too many additional concepts."

Of course, the tax rate for ordinary entertainment workers with an annual income of less than 300,000 yuan is not necessary unless thousands of people meet together to try to monopolize a special cultural industry.

In 2620, Guantianshe's policy of "famous entertainers appearing in public at the same time" was implemented to prevent certain (capital) group organizations from deliberately using the influence of entertainers to interfere with competition in other industries.

Such a law made the captive literati in the eastern part of the Star Sea Federation lash out as if their parents were dead.

The unruly people laughed and laughed: deducting money from these royal literati is more effective than "swearing".

Faced with the fact that imperial literati could confuse right and wrong, the Propaganda Department of Guantian Society mocked: "This is not to suppress culture and create a literary prison, but to separate the dirty smell of copper from the smell of ink."

Narrator: Most of the super-high-income cultural workers are actually in the individual handicraft industry, the workshop industry! A group of people in the workshop industry can communicate privately and non-publicly, and speaking in unison publicly is interfering with the healthy operation of the industry.

In addition, technical industries such as film special effects and prop arrangement are defined as "information industry" types of work and are not within the scope of circle tax.

Ordinary painters in comic studios need collaborators behind the scenes. Since they do not appear in public, the "famous effect" is very weak, and their own income does not meet the tax standard. When the tax rates are superimposed, 0+0 is still 0.

The alliance of cultural celebrities cannot improve the output of "spiritual needs of the people". As for the quality of works, it cannot be improved by continuous injection of funds.

Mr. Wei vaguely remembers the 21st century: the entertainment industry, such as football, film and television, has been frantically injected with money, spending more and more money, but the result is not satisfying the public, but only satisfying the financial industry.

With the economic reform of the "cultural world", Guantianshe's various communication platforms suddenly became clean.

Although some old intellectuals angrily quit the entertainment industry of Guantianshe, the latecomers soon came up with new works that attracted the public. At the same time, they reminded those overly conceited intellectuals that the entertainment industry would be the same without them.

At the end of the year, Wei Keng explained the reason to Qian Mumu who came to seek advice.

Wei Keng: Have you read Shang Junshu?

Qian Mumu was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

Wei Keng: What are the five skills of controlling the people?

Qian Mumu looked at Wei Keng's face and said: Foolish people, weak people, tired people, poor people, humiliating people.

Wei Keng nodded: Don't think this book is evil just because you see the word "people". You have to take a stand and define the "people" of that era. Just like in Confucianism, people do not include refugees without permanent property. The people Shang Jun emphasized to suppress

, not the citizens in the modern sense, but also the Book of Shang Jun, which needs to be combined with another Legalist book, Han Feizi's Five Worms, which accurately summarizes the objects that the Book of Shang Jun wants to control.

1: The author of books and biographies is full of benevolence, justice, morality, kindness and beauty; he pays attention to appearance and clothing and is clever in his words, disrupting public laws and shaking social consensus.

2: Those political strategists who travel around various forces, resort to deceit, cheat, use external forces, and achieve their private goals with nothing.

3: Those who sensationalize, violate prohibitions, flaunt new ideas, gather party members, and form a trend.

4: Those who try to evade social obligations and responsibilities rely on powerful people, pay bribes wantonly, and avoid hard work.

5: Those businessmen add huge added value to their equipment and accumulate luxury assets. Or during special periods, they hoard and extract huge profits from the common people.

"These objects mentioned above can also be treated with Shang Jun's books!" Wei Keng reminded Qian Mumu, who still has a long way to go, to read more and try to understand the books from different standpoints.

And we must always understand that we ourselves sometimes have opinions.

Qian Mumu was stunned for a moment, and said silently in his heart: "This is the heritage of a veteran time traveler who has traveled through hundreds of years!" From the very beginning, he was able to go on the right and more stable path than others.

Only then did Qian Mumu understand that he had lost in the "Future Storm" plane from the beginning. Looking back on the various directionless operations that he had made to reach this plane, it is really shameful to think about it now, but this veteran time traveler had no direction from the beginning.

Energy wasted in the wrong direction.

…the dividing line between the heavens area and the main world…

In the late 34th century dimension of the main world, Wei Keng now spans eight major territorial systems, with two major branches (Bu Tianxin and Human Base) and six smaller branches appearing.

At the Supreme Council of Time and Space, He Chongyun and the other seven kings looked at the uncontrollable scene in the space system. The flow of time that quickly became thicker and stronger flowed out from the heavens and took root in the core territories. They quickly responded to all the original

The system of Time Lords was replaced.

Behind each of these expansions is a "travel system" with strong vitality.

It can even be said that the patterns in the eight major territories are so small that Wei Keng's partial system is enough to fight back.

"Human Base" and "Bu Tian Xin", as the two major branches, basically penetrated the dimensional territories of "He Qiuye" and "He Chongyun", while several other territories could only block Wei Keng, but their

The progress is relatively slow,

In the year 3399 of the main world, in the Dimension Heavenly Palace, He Chongyun asked Peng Haitao, another giant lord of the omnic realm next to him: "With this situation, what do you think?"

Peng Haitao glanced at his nominal boss, who had just completed contact with Putufan. He didn't know whether He Chongyun's inquiry was a test or something else.

Peng Haitao: "I think we might as well engage in peaceful negotiations."

When Peng Haitao said this, he saw that He Chongyun was still making final strategic adjustments. Thin lines formed a long stream (a group of consciousness), which were converging into those variable time streams from other dimensional areas.

Peng Haitao curled his lips inwardly. He Chongyun had mobilized troops like this countless times in this war. As a result, all the obsessions mobilized were evenly distributed into the new time stream, and played very little role.

He Chongyun's series of operations actually evacuated all the mid-level and high-level time travelers in the entire territory system.

The Fifth Plane War lasted for a full century. The once abundant world of the heavens, perhaps during the time when Qin Tianfang just left, never thought that this mighty river of consciousness would be withered by a war.

,

Of course, it cannot be said that these consciousnesses have disappeared, but that in the huge time flow that is currently growing, the emerging time and space forces have absorbed these consciousnesses in the current main world (Wei Keng calls it "re-education of time-travelers with spiritual defects".)

Peng Haitao saw that He Chongyun was still mobilizing troops. He knew that He Chongyun's current behavior at this time was not for strategy, but to emphasize to himself that he was still the king of the eight territories!

Peng Haitao couldn't help but be silent. Once upon a time, he had witnessed Qin Tianfang passing the throne to He Chongyun.

When He Chongyun was sitting on the throne of dimension, he still felt a little uncomfortable. In terms of ability, he was no weaker than He Chongyun, but in terms of closeness, he was not a direct descendant of Qin Tianfang. But today, everything has changed. He

I began to sympathize with He Chongyun.

At this time, He Chongyun saw that Peng Haitao was silent and began to speak: "Are you still in contact with him?"

Peng Haitao looked at He Chongyun. In the past, when Qin Tian was there, Peng Haitao avoided him, but now he faced this powerful gaze and began to look at each other.

Peng Haitao: "A hundred years ago, in the dimension area, you had a master, but I only had a senior." (Qin Tianfang was He Chongyun's master, and Peng Haitao could only call Qin Tianfang his teacher. In the close relationship, Peng Haitao was slightly

in the outer layer.)

He Chongyun's pupils condensed slightly. He felt that what Peng Haitao meant now was that Wei Keng, who was currently in the fifth plane war, was his master. This relationship was the same as that between Qin Tianfang and He Chongyun.

He Chongyun suppressed his inner anger and said very calmly on the surface: "So you want to get rid of me and replace me!"

At this time, Peng Haitao no longer gave He Chongyun a third share in the power of words: "Well, you are narrow-minded. I think that sometimes when you are wrong, you have to bow your head and admit it. Hey, that one (Wei Keng) is actually

He has always been a good gentleman in the dimension, and everyone who has met him knows that as long as he lowers his head and admits his mistake, everything can start from scratch."

At this time, He Chongyun opened more channels for dimensional mobilization. While opening it, he smiled and said to Peng Haitao: "Now does he want me to admit my mistake, or do you want me to admit my mistake?"

Peng Haitao saw that He Chongyun mobilized the "reserve force" of time and space and understood that this guy had broken the pot.

Peng Haitao sighed: "Maybe you shouldn't be chosen as a time traveler."
