Start 1861: I Just Inherited the Dutch Throne

Kingdom of the Netherlands, Australian mainland, Melbourne, Royal Palace

Eleven o'clock in the morning.

The dialogue between King William IV and Prince Albert and his son continues.

Prince Albert: "Father, do you think Jules Danetant's political attributes can be replicated?"

"Propaganda techniques that keep pace with the times"

William IV nodded and said: "Since it is the first technique, it can naturally be copied."

Without waiting for Prince Albert to ask, he said: "At present, in the New Christian Party, Lyndon has become a one-person government-party model. This may cause difficulties in policy discussion, so Lyndon gave up the election.

In fact, Jules Danetang is almost like a one-man party. After all, there is no one who can challenge his position in the party, at least for now Joseph Beit will not come forward.

Another structural challenge faced by Lyndon is the serious gender imbalance within the party. With the exception of Lyndon himself, the vast majority of the new Christian Party figures the princess was familiar with were men. This may help attract older male voters, but it may also have a repelling effect on younger male and female voters. "

The low participation rate of women and young men at the campaign rally held in Melbourne Square a few days ago is proof of this.

A team with an imbalanced gender ratio may strengthen the stereotype of the New Christian Party as a one-man party and lack diversity and representation. It will also hinder the formation of an effective restraint mechanism within the New Christian Party and increase the party's systemic risks. "

Prince Albert: "But not the Christian Party?"

William IV nodded and said: "The New Christian Party uses reform slogans to try to expand its territory, but Lyndon will find that what he wants to do, the Socialist Party and the Liberal Party have done well before him, and are even already doing it.

The conservatives of the Christian Party are the basic base, and the old Christian Party has a stable advantage. Therefore, the old Christian Party has maintained its basic base by remaining unchanged and adapting to changes."

“In major newspapers, the performance of the Socialist Party’s Jourda Netan exceeds that of the Liberal Party’s de Vries and Lyndon, and his supporters are almost twice as many as de Vries and Lyndon combined.

This is mainly due to the fact that the Socialist Party has mastered the essence of campaign marketing in terms of propaganda techniques. Looking at the content of all his speeches at the campaign meeting, what can we gain from watching? "

One question and one answer, in turn, review the past and learn something new. William IV asked Prince Albert.

Prince Albert thought for a moment and said: "I found that Giardnetan and other socialists seem to like casual speeches, the kind without scripts."

William IV: "Yes, there are no questionable scripts or exquisite arrangements. Most of them are socialist discussions on the spot. One event can create multiple levels of speech topics. In terms of content, there are no rigid fragments. The overlap between them is to repeatedly bombard young people’s minds to open up areas from multiple angles, which not only shocks young people, but also creates interest.”

Speaking of this, William IV had to have some thoughts in his mind.

In the past ten years, the Christian Party has been declining and facing difficulties in reform. One of the biggest obstacles is that conservative groups insist on conservative views on the political spectrum and find it difficult to adapt to the mainstream public opinion in Dutch society.

This is also the reason why the Christian Party suffered heavy setbacks in the last prime ministerial election and this election. Last time, the Socialist Party took the opportunity to lobby for the formation of a cabinet, which weakened the cohesion of the Christian Party. This time, however, it directly stepped on the Christian Party to take office.

The conflict between the conservative representative of the Christian Party, Rasha, and the reformist representative, Lyndon, caused the Christian Party to fall apart and disband after nearly a decade of flowery pseudo-unity.

The two seem to have just begun to find the mainstream public opinion in the Netherlands. Unfortunately, the power has already reduced to three or four.

The results of the Dutch Senate and Prime Ministerial elections show that the Christian Party may further or is losing the support of young voters. Regarding this personal issue, William IV also found that young people are already somewhat resistant to conservatism. Just like the rebellious period, I don’t want the history I heard about since childhood to happen to me again.

However, many observers still cling to the traditional pattern of young people responding enthusiastically to the Christian Party and do not immediately pay attention to this structural change.

The actual situation is that so far in the election campaign, among voters under the age of 40, Jules Danetant's support rate has stabilized at more than 50%, while De Vries of the Liberal Party only has 30%, and the other 10% goes to Lyndon, and the remaining Yi Cheng is unwilling to make a choice or says he doesn’t know.

As young voters begin to turn 16 (the legal age of majority in the Netherlands) one after another, with the help of the new era, Jourda Netan's support rate continues to grow.

It is worthy of William IV's attention that although Jules Dunedin advocated exchanges and communication with the British Empire, he did not support Britain's claims of sovereignty in the Malacca Strait, and he even stated that he would not shy away from directly opposing it after he was elected. Britain has influenced the internal management practices of other countries in Northern Europe and around the world. His views are even closer to those of the American Republicans, who believe that Britain should withdraw its troops from the Confederate States of South America.

Do not create obstacles to the reunification of the southern separatist regions of the Federal Republic of America. Such a statement has greatly increased Giorda Netang's influence in the Federal Republic of America, and his favorability has made him the most popular Dutch political figure in the United States in history.

More than Tolbeck, the leader of the semi-alliance between the Netherlands and the United States.

William IV said to his eldest son, Prince Albert: "Some Christians and Liberals are willing to vote for Giarda Netan because they are extremely dissatisfied with the Liberal Party and the Christian Party and hope to achieve party rotation. Who is interested in the Liberal Party?" Whoever criticizes the most fiercely and the Christian Party is likely to gain their support.

, this emotional setting has in turn affected some people in the Christian Party, especially candidates for local representatives. They publicly called on the Socialist Party to open cooperation with the Socialist Party to protect grassroots elections, further raising the momentum of Jurda Netang. "

Prince Albert listened solemnly to the personal views of a world-influential King of the Netherlands, and he benefited a lot.

"So far in the Dutch general election, the Socialist Party and its founder Jules Danetant have become the most eye-catching stars. Polls in recent days have shown that Jules Danetant continues to rank first and is gradually opening up. The gap between the Liberal Party and former Prime Minister de Vries.

Although Liberal candidate de Vries still occupies second place, the urgency of the competition is clearly felt. The Liberal Party, a major party that was in power for 16 years from 1862 to 1878, switched from the former Christian Party to the Socialist Party Jurda Netan, trying to maintain the strongest position of the Liberal Party and let the others behind it compete for second place. Unfortunately, it seems that the poll pattern cannot be maintained. My son, the royal family, can now let go and expand its influence."

"You mean father?"

William IV smiled coldly and said: "I am going to arrange for you to visit the Qing Dynasty in the north to win them over to join the economic global colonization under Dutch rule and make these countries our economic vassals."
