Tower of Babel

Chapter 160

The television in this world has not yet been born. Zhang Cheng directly provided mature products in the Terminator world - electronic waste, second-hand LCD TV technology. Although these TVs have a wide variety of models. The sizes range from the largest fifty inches to the smallest palm size, but these TVs have been refurbished and modified. They look good and do not need to receive TV station signals. Instead, they use memory to play. Relying on huge storage capacity, they can store 400G of TV programs and thousands of TV series.

The cheapest model, s1, a small-screen black and white TV, is sold at a price of only ten yuan. Zhang Cheng does not care about profit for this model, but for cultural output. Even the TV series are sold very cheaply, almost to the point of giving them away for free. If they are advertised on TV stations and broadcast slowly, these TV series can earn at least hundreds of millions of pounds.

But TV stations are like radio stations. No country will easily give up control of the news media. Even in movie theaters, you can't broadcast whatever you want. It's impossible to ask you to export culture. Only this kind of player with built-in memory is equivalent to the VCD recorder in the past. It can penetrate through various channels and play at will in private space. Not to mention that it is difficult to control in small governments in the West, even in countries with strong control capabilities, it is difficult to prevent watching small movies.

In addition to building a TV station with Soviet assistance, Zhang Cheng did not use satellite technology to forcibly establish a global satellite TV station. Although he has this ability, it is not the time to expose satellite technology.

In order to make the majority of TV viewers watch TV programs more comfortably, Zhang Cheng directly provided language translation technology. Whether Danes, Finns, French, Germans, or Spanish, they can translate various TV series into their own language with one-click translation. Greatly expanded cultural imports,

After the war, many countries imposed embargoes on the Soviet Union, and the government banned private commercial exchanges and material transportation. However, with the release and return of prisoners of war, many personal belongings were brought back. The small TV became the most dazzling star among these personal belongings, causing a great shock. Driven by huge profits, smuggling channels were soon established. Televisions also quietly became popular.

When television was first born, its appeal was no less than drug addiction, and television sales were unprecedentedly hot. Forty- to fifty-inch LCD color TVs, once released, caused crazy pursuits and became the darlings of dignitaries. The price was directly sold for more than one thousand pounds, which was equivalent to luxury classic cars in Europe. Even so, there was often no market for them. Because of the trade embargo, televisions could only rely on smuggling.

Capitalists naturally refused to cede such a huge market to foreigners, and soon organized a large number of scientists to study and try to crack the technology. However, due to the gap in science and technology, it was doomed to be futile to study chip technology in an era when transistors were not even born. Finally, they had to make major concessions on the trade embargo.

What is even more tragic is that no matter how hard they tried,None of the TV series they watched were shot by themselves. Although film technology had been born and film and television were almost separated by a wall, it was this wall that prevented any movie from being played on TV, and film reels could not be converted into digital signals. Zhang Cheng did not provide this technical support. A large number of Chinese TV series flooded the screen, and a Chinese trend soon emerged in Europe and the territory of the bear.

But in the Republic of China, even the lowest-end products cost ten yuan, which was relatively expensive. Ten yuan was equivalent to one pound in Europe. In the Republic of China, a laborer could not earn ten yuan a year.

What Zhang Cheng wanted to awaken was the patriotic consciousness of the people. A century of rise and fall, the country was in danger, and the people were confused. The flower-growing family has been defeated repeatedly on the road to self-help. Many literati betrayed the country and the nation, and even openly denied Chinese culture and Chinese characters, including Lu Shuren. Zhang Cheng, who came from the future, knew the harm of the export of Western ideology and the sooner the people's hearts were reorganized, the better.

For this reason, Zhang Cheng directly published a signed article "What is the Chinese Nation" in major newspapers of the Republic of China. It expounded the differences between Eastern and Western cultures, from the Western Bible to the ancient saints and sages of China. One is a maritime culture, a robber culture, and a barbaric culture. The other is an agricultural civilization, a great unification, and a united effort to change the world. One is Noah's Ark, one is Dayu's flood control, one is the Tower of Babel, one is Qin Shihuang's unification of the world, one is the Matthew effect, one is the way of heaven to reduce the surplus to make up for the deficiency, one is individualism, and the other is collectivism. Chinese culture is not inferior to Western culture by half a foot, on the contrary, we are more outstanding. We will be reborn from the ashes. On the surface, we are a dragon culture, but in fact we are a phoenix. At the end of the article, a simplified musical notation version of "Loyalty to the Country" was released. A record was also released at the same time.

This article caused a great sensation among the Chinese people and also attracted the attention of the imperialist powers. Many countries published articles "Chinese Fantasy" and "Chinese Self-praise". Even this article caused religious differences, which is a later story. Zhang Cheng ignored it.

It was July 1918, and the Paris Peace Conference, a conference to redistribute postwar interests, was already in turmoil. Germany, which had been newly armed to defend against the Soviet Union, refused to admit defeat, while France insisted on dismembering Germany. The United States hoped to gain more say. Although Russia was absent, no one could ignore the existence of the bear.

In the Far East, Zhang Cheng took over Hokkaido and Lushun military ports. Xu Shuzheng had been back in Beijing for more than three months. The things Zhang Cheng asked Xu Shuzheng to do were ignored. After the failure of the intervention war, the Beiyang government turned a blind eye to the olive branch Zhang Cheng extended. Although there was no unfriendly behavior, it pursued a policy of not speaking, not contacting, not communicating, and not provoking.

Zhang Cheng sent Sol to submit letters of credence again and again, but the Beiyang government did not respond, and Xu Shuzheng refused to meet. Pushing again and again. Finally, Saul brought more than 100 special forces soldiers, directly surrounded the Prime Minister's Office by helicopter, set up mortars, and threatened to bombard the Prime Minister's Office if they did not respond.

When things got to this point, the steward still trembled and said: Sir, our Prime Minister is really not here, please be patient. Be patient.

In the past two years, Thor has been strengthened twice by flattery and good performance. His body is very strong. He grabbed the steward's collar and lifted him up from the ground. He said angrily: "Say it again? He is obviously here. He didn't go out this morning and is smoking in the bedroom now. Do you think I don't know? As you Chinese say, you can hide on the first day but not on the fifteenth day. Today is the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month. What does your Prime Minister mean by hiding? If he thinks that pretending to be confused can solve the problem, then we will take further effective measures!"
