The Eternals Who Travel the Worlds

Chapter 1202 Propaganda

In this era, the Internet has not yet entered thousands of households, and the means of obtaining information are very limited.

Apart from newspapers, the only channel for ordinary people to understand the outside world is television.

This method of communication has great limitations and is not timely.

Normally, if a war starts abroad, ordinary people will not know about it unless they pay special attention.

But there are always exceptions.

Just like now.

As long as you turn on the TV, you will see news about extraterrestrial civilizations on every channel.

Traditional paper media are urgently printing new issues in order to catch up with this hot topic.

With such huge publicity efforts, information about extraterrestrial civilizations has been rampant in less than a day since the announcement.

Now you just go to the shabby security booth downstairs, and the old security guard inside can tell you a lot about Trisolaran civilization, Shi Qiang civilization, PDCC and so on.

It’s actually not surprising that it has such exaggerated popularity.

The discovery of extraterrestrial civilizations is already a quite shocking event, but two were discovered at once, and "aliens" have already arrived on Earth.

The most important thing is that there is no threshold at all when using alien civilization as a talking point.

From the most cutting-edge scientific research facilities to the civil engineering workers who have just finished moving bricks and are sitting and smoking.

We can all chat for a word or two.

Even kindergarten children can use childish voices to ask their parents if they can be friends with aliens.

Taxi drivers are even happier.

Originally, I could only take a long-term view and analyze the state of the country and the world endlessly.

As soon as the news about extraterrestrial civilization came out, we had to discuss the form of the universe.

The doorbell rings.

When Old Yangtou next door heard the news of Zhang Yuanchao's return, he quickly came over.

People of this age cannot change their habit of visiting each other even if they live in a building.

"Hey, Lao Zhang, you guys have started watching TV today? How can I remember who said that we ordinary people just live a down-to-earth life and don't care about those irrelevant things? The government

I won’t give you a half-cent increase in your pension because of this.”

Old Yangtou spoke jokingly, pretending to be really surprised.

They had been old friends for decades, and Zhang Yuanchao was not embarrassed, so he pulled Lao Yang's head and sat down.

"This is not a far-fetched thing, aliens, can you believe it? Didn't you say that every major decision of the country will have an impact on our lives through various direct or indirect channels?

The emergence of this alien civilization will have a greater impact than the war between two countries, right? You have to analyze it carefully for me. I heard that alien civilization will also share advanced technology with us. You said this, it will keep

really?"

"Hey, you asked the right person about this."

Old Yang held a cigarette in his mouth and said energetically: "The technology of this alien civilization is much higher than that of us humans. You know, that kind of artificial intelligence, robots, they will do whatever you ask them to do.

From now on, he will work directly for us."

After talking about it, Lao Yang gave a thumbs up.

"Then we won't have a job?"

"You are stupid, Lao Zhang. All the work has been done by robots. Why are we still working? The state will pay us directly."

"Oh, that's a good feeling."

Old Yangtou laughed loudly: "But that's not all. There are many technologies that we have never even heard of. In short, life will change drastically before long."

Zhang Yuanchao suddenly frowned and said worriedly: "But why is this alien so nice to us? Is there any problem here?"

"Old Zhang, this is because you have a dark mind, right? Aliens are so advanced in technology and they don't need anything. Why do they still care about your three melons and two dates? And the spokesperson of the Planetary Defense and Exchange Council said so

, that alien called the Trisolaran can't even lie..."

Conversations like this are happening in every corner of the world.

Everyone feels that the world will be different starting from today.

Sounds came from the plasma TV set at Zhang Yuanchao's home.

[Mr. Lu is the first alien to come to the earth. He represents the indestructible friendship between Shi Qiang civilization and human civilization. 】

[This station is honored to invite Mr. Lu Yan, the representative of Shi Qiang Wenming. Everyone welcomes you. 】

There was roaring applause from the TV, and it was obvious that the audience was very enthusiastic.

Of course, these audiences must have been specially arranged, there is no doubt about this.

Zhang Yuanchao and Lao Yangtou looked at each other, and then sat down consciously.

They were quite curious about what this alien looked like.

Soon, a handsome young man appeared on the TV screen. If he didn't explain it in advance, everyone would probably think he was a male star.

But even with the introduction in advance, the well-trained audience present could not help but exclaim.

The image of Lu Yan is obviously far from the image of aliens imagined by ordinary people.

[Host: Mr. Lu, thank you for coming, let me say hello to everyone first.]

[Lu Yan: Hello everyone.]

[Host: Mr. Lu must have noticed it, everyone is surprised by your appearance.]

[Lu Yan: My head should be bigger than my body, and my two eyes take up two-thirds of my face?]

[Host: Haha, Mr. Lu is quite humorous. I think everyone is like me and has many questions to ask...]

In the studio, Lu Yan glanced around at the well-trained audience, and continued to maintain a skilled and friendly smile on his face.

Thanks to his friendly image, even if he is said to be an alien, it is difficult for most people to dislike him.

"Mr. Lu, what do you think of the current panic about alien civilizations in society?"

The decent-looking female host asked in standard Mandarin.

Lu Yan pursed his lips.

Although before coming here, Chang Weisi told him that there would be some sharp questions in this interview.

But in order to alleviate the growing panic among the people, we still have to fool it first.

"On this point, relevant figures from the government and the scientific community have provided explanations and clarifications on many official occasions."

Lu Yan spoke in a gentle tone: "But I can understand the panic. What needs to be explained is that neither the Trisolaran civilization nor Shi Qiang civilization, which is four light years away, has any ill intentions towards human civilization.

The main tone of the three parties will be peace and development..."

After half an hour, the interview ended.

As soon as Lu Yan returned to the backstage, Shi Qiang ran out of nowhere and slapped him on the shoulder.

"Hahaha, well said, Lao Lu!"
