Behind me is the earth

Chapter 391 389. Radio Radio and public opinion propaganda

"That's not right. Your wish can come true quite easily."

Then, Catalina said again.

"Ah? Is it easy to implement or difficult to implement?"

Anna was stunned.

Confused and anxious.

Catalina was caught, breaking the casserole and asking the truth to prevent her from becoming the Riddler.

"Your final wish is quite easy to come true."

Catalina said.

"oh."

Anna nodded and became happy again.

As long as I can eat roast duck.

"What are you two talking about?"

Paul saw the two of them muttering and came over to ask.

"Nothing, we are talking about roast duck."

Anna said quickly.

"Oh, if you can be favored by His Majesty the Emperor, you will definitely have endless roast duck!"

Paul didn't think much of it.

While on the ship, the two of them lived in a room on the upper deck and had a good relationship.

"Why do I feel like it's much warmer here than outside?"

Olga looked at the prosperous streets and saw the magical things in his eyes.

"Maybe the sun is bigger at noon."

Paul didn't know about the heat island effect in industrial cities, so he replied after hearing this.

He looked more at the huge factories on both sides of the road. The tall chimneys seemed to reach into the sky, and the clouds of smoke they emitted floated in the air, like cloud-making machines.

Anna and Caterina pay more attention to the beautiful clothes on the models in the ready-to-wear stores.

Everyone has their own preferences, and everyone pays attention to what they like.

It's a pity that they don't speak Jingguo dialect, so they can only see everything with a pair of eyes. The only Jingguo person who can communicate with them is the translator Zheng Shuwen, but he is talking to the soldier at this time and has no intention of giving anything. The meaning of their introduction.

"People from these small barbarian countries have probably never seen such a prosperous and huge city."

When the young platoon leader saw the appearance of the foreigners over there, he couldn't help but feel a little proud of the people of a big country, and his words were somewhat contemptuous.

Zheng Shuwen looked at the envious looks on the faces of the four foreigners, but then remembered the past, and recalled and sighed: "If it weren't for the princes who have traveled all the way to open up the mountains and forests, how could Wuzhou be so prosperous now? Just six or seven years ago, I was still I was begging all the way and almost starved to death on the road. Fortunately, Qingshui County gave me porridge and I survived."

The platoon leader was solemn when he heard this: "The teachers often teach us that when we put on the military uniform, we must fight for the country and the people.

A moment of delusion in my heart actually gave rise to arrogance. "

Zheng Shuwen laughed and said: "Society and people are prosperous. Isn't that what we work hard for? We work together to make society prosperous and abundant. We should be proud of it. Why should Platoon Leader Wang be like this?"

I guess these foreigners would be shocked when they arrived in Qifeng County and saw the current construction of Qifeng City. "

Get on the train and continue on your way.

Passing through the western part of Guyi County and the northern part of Fengqi County, when we arrived at Qifeng County, it was already half past six in the evening.

It's half past six in winter, and it's already dark.

As soon as I got off the train, there was a cold wind blowing.

There is a bright moon in the sky, shining on the earth. Looking into the distance, it is covered with snow. It is obvious that there has been a heavy snow here.

After leaving the train station, not only Paul and the others, but also the young navy soldiers were shocked by the night scene in front of them.

The neon city lights flashed like tall buildings in the sky, making them feel as if they had entered a dream country.

Even Zheng Shuwen, who had seen this kind of scenery before, couldn't help but marvel when he saw the beautiful scenery of snow and neon. There was light in his eyes and poetry in his heart.

Just when he was about to recite a poem.

"Didi~"

Several whistle blasts interrupted Zheng Shuwen's poetry and attracted his and Platoon Leader Wang's attention.

Several military green convertible off-road vehicles were parked on the road in front of the train station.

"Wang Hai?"

A soldier wearing a black fur coat got out of the car.

He exuded a fierce aura, as if he were a sharp sword ready to be unsheathed at any time. When facing him, people feel a bit oppressive.

"Yes, my lord!"

The platoon leader straightened his back and saluted.

"I'm from the Secret Service."

The soldier returned the salute, took out his waistband and glanced at Wang Hai, then glanced at Paul, Olga and the two hooded women: "Get in the car."

No wonder.

Wang Hai knew why this man felt so oppressed. The guard regiment was an army that directly served the prince. They were the elite of the elite. They were either high-level warriors or powerful strangers. They could stand alone anywhere and were known as masters. .

The planning of the train station is still on the outskirts of the city.

It is in a position equivalent to the urban-rural fringe.

Even though it is already dark, when every train arrives, there is still a constant flow of people in the square in front of the station. On this cold night, there are many steaming food stalls under the street lights outside, dispelling the cold and adding to the fireworks of the world. gas.

After everyone got on the bus, the vehicle ran on the asphalt road and along Qifeng Avenue. When driving on the bridge, the view of the building connected with the reflection of the blue Yangtze River has become the iconic beauty of Qifeng County. It is still fresh to this day, and there are still people lying on the bridge to enjoy it.

When the vehicles passed by the foot of the building, Paul and the others raised their heads and looked around. There was no end in sight at all, as if the roof of the building had reached the sky.

Their hearts were deeply shocked, making them feel like four wild monkeys breaking into human civilization!

After the vehicle entered Yunshui Bridge, the surrounding area became quiet.

"We have arranged a residence for you. We will meet with His Highness tomorrow morning."

The soldiers drove the convoy to the door of an inn.

There are people waiting at the door, this is the official guest house.

"Give me the things first, and I will present them to His Highness first."

The soldier took over the brown wooden box that platoon leader Wang Hai and others had escorted all the way.

Wang Hai and others watched the vehicle leave and went to their rooms under the guidance of the reception staff.

"There will be food in the restaurant in front before nine o'clock tonight. You can go there to eat at any time. Tomorrow morning, the food will start at five o'clock and end at nine-thirty."

The receptionist introduced it to everyone.

After the receptionist left, Paul bid farewell to the translator Zheng Shuwen and returned to his room. He saw Olga pulling a colorful rope "click-click-click". As he moved, the room lit up. A dark one flickered.

"This lamp is so magical. It's such a small lamp that it can illuminate the room as bright as daytime! Jingguo is really a magical place!"

Olga said in amazement when she saw Paul coming back.

Paul entered the bathroom and looked at the spotless room. If Zheng Shuwen hadn't accompanied the receptionist just now and introduced them to them in a professional and detailed manner like a museum guide, he would have never imagined that this would be a place for pooping and peeing!

"Wow~"

Open the faucet and water immediately flows out.

Turn left, wait for a while and hot water will come out, turn right, and it will become cold water again.

It's like magic!

"Is this the life of people in Jingguo?"

Olga also squeezed in and exclaimed in this small room.

Paul turned and looked at each other, and they both saw a strong yearning for a better life in the other's eyes!

When he peed into the toilet, looking at the white toilet, he couldn't urinate for a while.

When the two people squeezed into this small room to take a shower, hot water rushed over their bodies, they used soap to rub their bodies into foam, and rubbed each other's backs. When the foam was washed away, they stroked the rough muscles on their bodies. Their skin became slippery, and they suddenly felt that the life here was even more decent than that of the nobles in Siro!

They were in their dressing gowns when they heard a knock at the door.

It was Zheng Shuwen who opened the door. He stood at the door and said, "Go to bed early tonight. After breakfast tomorrow morning, you will have to practice the etiquette for tomorrow's meeting."

"Okay, we'll get up early."

Paul said quickly.

Zheng Shuwen nodded and left.

The royal palace does not have so many rules, but these foreigners on the sea, who are both merchants and thieves, are often afraid of power and unethical, so it is necessary to set some rules for them.

After closing the door, Paul's mind was thinking about the meeting tomorrow, and his heart was beating a little "bang bang".

At this time, the palace was in full swing and the lights were brightly lit.

After dinner, Ren Pingsheng was playing with a wooden box. There was a large speaker on the wooden box, which looked very much like the radio from the 1960s and 1970s.

In fact, this is indeed a radio, and it is a "Qixing brand" radio produced in Qingcheng Town.

"This was just produced and sent to the Ministry of Industry for testing. It can receive electromagnetic wave signals..."

Liu Wen and Ren Nuan are both there.

Ren Pingsheng pulled out the antenna and plugged the power supply into a power strip. After turning it on, there was a burst of electricity. He turned the knob to search for a radio station, but since there was no radio station, of course he couldn't find one.

Seeing this, Ruan Tang sent out an electromagnetic wave. The radio was immediately affected, and the current sound "Ji Niu Ji Niu" rang several times.

As Ruan Tang changed the electromagnetic waves, a sleepy "meow~" sound came from the radio. The police chief lying next to him suddenly jumped up: "Who? Who is imitating the police chief!"

The loudspeaker also shouted at the same time: "Who? Who is imitating the police chief!"

The same tone, the same voice, made the police chief confused.

But it is already a very knowledgeable cat. It has seen mobile phones, computers, cameras, cars, airplanes... and will not make a fuss about a radio.

"Unfortunately, only Qifeng County, Qingshui County, Le County and Yile County are fully equipped with electricity now. It is not easy for people in other places to use it."

Ren Pingsheng is a bit regretful.

"Your Highness, there is a battery version of the radio. This thing does not consume much power. Two batteries can last about half a month."

Liu Wen said.

"this is OK."

Ren Pingsheng put the radio on the table: "What is the manufacturing cost?"

"One unit is about 800 yuan."

Liu Wen said.

Ren Pingsheng frowned slightly.

"Your Highness, I understand that the radio can receive the signal of a certain frequency band from the radio station, and then convert the current sound into human voice through the speaker."

Ren Nuan said enthusiastically: "If this thing can be popularized, our public opinion propaganda work will produce historic changes and completely end the power of public opinion held by the gentry. Our policy propaganda can bypass those gentry and wealthy families. , reaching directly to the grassroots level and reaching everyone’s ears!”

Ren Pingsheng nodded, this was obvious.

The emergence of radio can not only greatly enrich people's spiritual entertainment activities, but also help them understand the world. However, for the government, the most important role is propaganda, dissemination, and mobilization.

Looking at the radio, Ren Pingsheng suddenly said: "The work of popularizing vernacular Chinese in the government must also be put on the agenda."

Ren Nuan also nodded and said: "It is true. The red tape format of official documents is indeed not conducive to the understanding of the people. Instead, it gives the gentry the right to interpret and influence the meaning, which is detrimental to our propaganda work."

As long as it is something that benefits the people, we are not afraid that the people will know about it, but we are afraid that the people will not know about it and will not be supported by the people. Instead, we will be secretly sabotaged by relevant interest groups that will be harmed.

Common people are greatly limited by their knowledge and experience, and it is often difficult for them to understand the top-level design and official document language.

Official documents must be straightforward, or we must have the ability to translate official documents into a language that the people can understand, and explain them in vernacular, so that the propaganda work can be smooth and silent, and will not be swayed by saboteurs or disharmony. destroyed by the sound.

“To be grounded, you not only have to put your feet on the ground, but also dig deeply into the mud, and let go of your body to gain understanding.

Anyone can shout slogans and talk big words, but when doing practical things, we cannot do so with empty talk and pragmatism.

The credibility of the government requires both publicity and implementation. Publicity assists implementation, and implementation feeds back publicity. This cycle can make the people trust the government and make the government more authoritative. In this way, the people will be united and united.

If what is propagandized is not implemented, what is reacted is not given feedback, what is expected is not echoed, and if things go on like this, there will be mutual distrust and suspicion among the people, and then there will be opposition between the top and bottom, internal strife and external enemies, and internal and external difficulties. "

Ren Pingsheng's thoughts wandered for a while, and he spoke a few more words, then pulled back and continued: "The Propaganda Department has sufficient experience in dealing with the people, and knows how to use the people's language to speak well about their concerns. This matter is left to Ren Nuan. You take the lead, let Liu Shu assist, promote the vernacular activities and include them in the year-end assessment.

As for the radio, the manufacturing cost of 800 Wen is too high. In the early stage, the Finance and Taxation Department will subsidize part of the production and push it into the market. When it is sold to the people, even if the price is a little higher, it must be within the range that they can accept. At least it must be within the acceptance range of those wealthy households, and there must be at least a few people in a village who can afford it.

Pricing varies from place to place. Under the premise of grasping the general principles, you and the factory can make up your own minds on the specific price.

Finally, regarding radio matters, the Propaganda Department still took the lead in establishing Wuzhou Radio, with the Ministry of Industry Department providing technical support. "

Ren Pingsheng broke down the tasks.

At this time, Ruhua walked into Qixing Hall holding a brown wooden box.
