Chapter 1384: Chapter 449: The Influence of Literary and Artistic Works on Political Propaganda

As soon as the program ended, public opinion came one after another.

There were praises, curses, people claiming they were preparing to attack Lin Miao, and others thinking Lin Miao was bluffing and lying, overall the discussions were intense.

Pan’an, who was entrusted by Lin Miao with important tasks, was so furious after seeing a series of comments that she was beside herself with rage, wishing she could grab a gun and go after those guys on the other side of the network.

It had only been ten minutes, and Pan’an couldn’t hold her temper, jumping up from the chair.

"I can’t do it, I don’t want to deal with this anymore. Find someone else."

Pan’an angrily wanted to leave the office, but Lin Miao pressed her back into the chair with a hand.

"Who are you mad at, me?"

"Look at these idiots!"

Pan’an pointed at the malicious comments on the screen.

"You gave away so much stuff for them, and what’s the result?"

Pan’an was heartbroken, thinking of all the advanced technologies now fully shared with companies and New America, the loss was so great she could barely breathe, yet so many people were ungrateful and even attacking Lin Miao.

For the first time, Pan’an felt the term "ignorant masses" was so accurate, even though she used to think the company’s lofty attitude and disdain for the lower class were so annoying.

But when she herself needed to manage a group, she suddenly discovered the diversity of organisms, and she completely couldn’t understand what was going on in their minds.

This conflict between ideals and reality gave her a sense of disillusionment with human nature.

"You need to change your perspective, Pan’an, they have no obligation to understand me, nor to keep pace with us."

Lin Miao patted Pan’an heavily on the shoulder twice.

"That’s why our road is long and challenging; establishing communication and trust cannot be achieved overnight. You must actively try to understand them, figure out what they’re thinking, then communicate, educate, reconcile; only when the propaganda work is done well, more people will be willing to join us on this path and stand shoulder to shoulder with you."

Lin Miao joked.

"Now do you understand how Sol sees you?"

"Hmph... Who would trust the New American Federation government?"

Pan’an snorted.

"It’s a pure waste of time."

Seeing her stop sulking and refusing to work, Lin Miao finally turned to leave.

"Do a good job, Pan’an. Lead those Efficiency Department folks outside, select truly valuable responses and data from within, then summarize and submit them to me, Lucy will assist you."

"By the way, there’s a new Super Dream about to go online on Voice of the Horizon, if you have time, you can check it out."

"Where are you going?"

"Someone wants to make trouble for me; I have to resolve it."

Miles surely watched the live broadcast too, and because there was no prepared script in advance, Miles and the others were caught off guard. Lin Miao said some falsehoods during the live broadcast. Miles actually never announced the idea of a fusion reactor construction.

Because the development of a new energy system based on a fusion reactor entirely challenged the old energy system of Chun Er + oil, and the European Community would absolutely not allow it to develop, it could only be done quietly.

Once this matter is exposed, New America will have no choice but to directly face enormous pressure from the European Community, unless Miles is willing to actively give up or hand over fusion reactor technology, but doing so would mean stepping down and facing reckoning is inevitable.

You dragged me to Washington, Cuba still refuses to add chips, wanting to stay aloof?

Watch me handle you until it’s sorted out.

"..."

Watching Lin Miao’s departing figure, Pan’an knew what the other was shouldering was even heavier than she imagined.

Otherwise, given Pan’an’s temperament, she would never sit in this office and help him with work, what kind of nonsense New America, doesn’t concern Adcardo.

Indeed, still need to relax with something good to watch.

"Super Dream..."

Pan’an carefully clicked on the Super Dream page of Voice of the Horizon, and there was indeed a new Super Dream, the name was

[Saving Private Ryan]

The propaganda war either doesn’t start or, if it does, has to deal a punch that knocks the opponent breathless, this is especially true for ideological warfare.

In the history of the United States, the most severe struggle period was the era of McCarthyism prevailing after World War II.

During that time, the FBI group led by Hoover implemented a policy of terror internally, resulting in severe monitoring and repression of left-wing elements within the United States.

They monitored the famous left-wing writer Hemingway to suicide.

There’s also Helen Keller who wrote [If I Had Three Days of Light], if not for her really being too famous, the FBI couldn’t make a move, she would also have a hard time escaping death.

But even still, in the propaganda domain, you’d almost never see news about her being a staunch supporter of socialism.

Even they faced such situations, what other people encountered can be imagined to be extraordinarily dire.

Was the United States after World War II heaven?

Clearly not, with still large populations living below the poverty line, racial massacres, cults, and discrimination being commonplace.

Can humans see these things and choose to ignore them?

But based on this, the born revolutionary elements were crazily annihilated by the FBI.

Rebellion means death.

To not rebel means to endure moral interrogations.

Thus, under such dual siege, a new culture was born.

The hippie culture of the 60s.

I cannot resist the dreadful thing, nor can I save others, then I’ll choose to destroy my own body, and not be exploited by you guys.

Drug addiction, promiscuity, revelry, irresponsibility, disturbing social order...

Behind a series of stigmatizing words is the despairing reality oppression.

And in the cyberpunk era, such a thing erupted for the second time.
