To Four Thousand Years Later
Vol 4 Chapter 182: Turn against each other
In the past few days, Frank's political situation has become increasingly tense. The daily flow of people coming in and out of several well-known newspapers in Frank suddenly increased: people from various forces who inquired about the news kept coming in and out... They even met each other at the door of the newspaper office, glanced at each other silently, or nodded their heads or pretended to be something None of them were seen. That's right, in this era when telephones have begun to be popularized, they still use the most primitive method of inquiring.
Although they all have telephones in their homes, they dare not transmit information through the telephone. Not even information that is not that important and not classified. Because they can't trust Leonardo, the cost and maintenance of the phone will be cheaper, and the structure is simple enough for easy maintenance and use. Only in this way can it be easily popularized.
But the terrible thing is that all the working crew of the switching station are from Leonardo. All the calls are made to the Telecommunication Bureau, which also means that the switching station can eavesdrop on the content of the call.
Even if they don't go bugging. Just knowing who to call whom is a nuisance.
Imagine a conversation like this: "Hello ma'am, get me Mr. Mueller, yes. Mr. Mueller who lives somewhere.
After making such a phone call, who of them has a connection with whom, and who has a close personal relationship with whom, wouldn't Leonardo know all of them without even investigating? In other cases, they just regard it as a "fashionable decoration", a decoration for showing off. After all, they have servants at their disposal. No matter how bad you are, you can hire people. Even if they have something to inform each other, they don't have to run errands at all. As long as they give orders twice, someone will write the letter for them, and someone will deliver it for them after it is written. Because of this, they couldn't feel the convenience of this phone at all—after all, they were not the ones who had to run away, which was why Leonardo didn't position the phone as a high-end product. The main clients he faces have always been middle-class lawyers, doctors, mine owners, manor owners, and ordinary businessmen. The news seems to have grown wings. It was only spread to Frank, and it flew to various newspaper offices in the blink of an eye. The relationship between the newspapers, at least the relationship between the major newspapers, is still quite harmonious, which is different from the intense competition shown on the surface. In order to ensure the orderly release of news, and at the same time, to maintain authority Major newspapers will exchange and discuss hot news before publishing it. What is needed is to gather multiple news channels, and try to ensure the correctness when it is released for the first time.
Journalists are human, after all, and human beings make mistakes.
A tabloid like Attlee's. Naturally, they can immediately release any news they interview. The picture is a fast one. As for whether the news is accurate or not... Anyway, the readers' newspapers have never been for the accuracy of the news, but more for fun. Find a few stories, some pornographic news to brag with your friends. The door's newspaper is to try to "accurate" the news. In this way they have to exchange information with each other. Then, according to the contribution, important news will be released in turn to ensure that no one company will dominate. If anyone dares to break the rules, other newspapers will jointly block news of their family... What is needed is to gather the strength of multiple families. Keep each other's jobs. So like this big newspaper. Basically there will be no exceptions. Even if their news is confirmed. Always have to wait for the next issue to be published.
This also means that before five o'clock in the morning of the next day, if you want to know what you have heard, you have to go to a very community to inquire in person and then follow the interviewer's card. As well as the forces behind the person who is questioning, they will give different levels of information depending on the situation. Of course, this kind of news that is given out half a day or even a day in advance will naturally be charged. That is more than several times the income of a newspaper. Even if it is only an hour in advance, it is tens or hundreds of times the income. If the news twelve hours in advance is really important, they dare to ask for hundreds of thousands of pounds. And let's put it this way... In the past few days, the income of these newspapers has already caught up with the net profit of last year.
A week ago, Frank had a "major serial killing" incident. Nearly 80% of overseas MPs were strangled by the strangler Michaelot within a day or overnight. Even in their house, manor and other places, all other people related to them were killed. This is undoubtedly a murder of a very bad nature. Not only because of the large number of dead, but the bigger problem is that when Michaelot killed this time, several of them were almost wiped out without a doubt. But as if they had received some news, several major newspapers and many small newspapers took a very objective standpoint when they reported this matter. There are only a few small newspapers. Immediately after the constant calls to arrest this "hateful killer" at all costs, on the day after these various news were sent out, several major newspapers coincidentally published reports about the dead in this assassination operation and about drug trafficking. , as well as evidence of forcing others to sell drugs, using drugs to control the prostitution of teenage girls...and a long list of victims.
Several newspapers jointly condemned their heinous behavior that violated the rules of the Frankish Republic and issued a denunciation to the rest of the overseas officials.
All of a sudden, the political world was in chaos.
The first to bear the brunt are those tabloids that received money to publish Weixin news. The users and reputation they had accumulated were almost completely destroyed overnight. Some of the victims' households even learned about it, and besides the legal sect, all factions, large and small, began to open fire on the overseas faction all at once. They finally found a handle that could completely destroy each other... But the legal faction stood aside with their arms crossed from a neutral and objective standpoint, trying to make others let go of their desire to attack the overseas faction. Generally speaking, what they say to persuade the fight is nothing more than three types of **** remarks: "It's all over, it's all over", "It's already like this anyway", and "The dead are the greatest". Although little Augustine began to chase and fight almost at all costs, but with the full support of the legal faction and the full bribery of the overseas faction, the situation was gradually stabilized.
Until what happened yesterday. Disturbed the chess game again.
If it is said that Leonardo made the first chess piece, he handed over the evidence to all the newspapers who were unwilling to accept black-hearted money... then he just played the second chess piece at this moment.
No one thought that it was surrender rather than arrest. But after all, he fell into the hands of the legal nobles. However, this created the first rift between the legal faction and the overseas faction. Because the overseas faction tried to sentence Michaelot to death. In order to maintain their honor and completely destroy... But the legal sect disagreed. Their fundamental interests collided at this time.
Members of the legal faction suddenly realized that this moment is an excellent time to implement the abolition of death. The strangling killer Michaelot killed these drug dealer officials. This incident has almost attracted national attention and discussion... and he has already Standing on the moral high ground, if the legal faction supports him, he will also get the support of the public.
There is no doubt that Michaelot is a man of justice. Only by successfully abolishing the death penalty will they be able to thoroughly control the power base of the judiciary and the prison system... and only when this humble goal is achieved can they fully exchange their "right to speak" into benefits. This purpose is beyond the comprehension of the overseas faction. Because from the very beginning, the Legal School did not fully reveal their purpose.
In their view, Michaelot fell into the hands of the legal faction, and if they didn't want to kill him, they must be planning to use what was in his mind. In turn, the village sent overseas.
Originally, the status of cooperation between the Overseas Faction and the Legal Faction was equal. But now those who directly connect the Overseas Faction to the New World have been killed, and they are already weaker than the Legal Faction. This time. The legal faction has no obligation to help them rise again. Controlling or even annexing them is more in line with the interests of the legal faction.
In one day, they completely turned against each other.
