I want to be a warlord

Chapter 364 King Optimus Prime Town (please vote for me)
As the saying goes, Duke Zhou fears the day of rumors.

Rumor has it that this thing is intact, and it is still very lethal.

In particular, driven by Wang Zhen, the Democratic and Peace Party established a specialized 'propaganda' department early on.

The propaganda department has just carried out exercises in the middle and lower reaches of the country before.

"What did you say in your copywriting? It's a bit conservative." Wang Zhen looked at the text that Faisal had brought and that his propaganda department was preparing to use to incite the people in Baghdad.

"You have to fully consider the knowledge of ordinary people and the acceptance of information by ordinary people. What you write is indeed clear and logical, but the question is, how many people are willing to listen to you and understand."

"The best way to instill information into ordinary people can be summarized in two ways. First: establish a target that is closely related to ordinary people!"

"Second: The simpler, the better. It is best to summarize it in one sentence."

"For example, on March 2011, 3, a 11-magnitude earthquake occurred in Japan. As a result, a nuclear leak occurred at the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant. Many people in the country began to panic buy and hoard edible salt. Some families purchased enough salt to last their entire family for 9.0 years. .”

"Ah?" Faisal looked confused, "Isn't salt dug from mines?"

Wang Zhen nodded, "The public only needs to know one piece of information. Nuclear leaks will pollute the seawater, and the seawater can produce salt. Therefore, the salt will be polluted, so the price of salt will increase, so people must rush to buy it."

"It's that simple." Wang Zhen spread his hands, "The simpler the information, the easier it is to circulate and the easier it is to have a huge impact."

……

Baghdad, a civilian teahouse.

Arabs like to drink tea, and teahouses are spread throughout Iraq.

"I was fired by my boss." A man said with a frustrated look while drinking tea.

"Why?" asked someone next to him with a face full of surprise.

"Damn it, the boss said he wanted to lower my salary and I didn't agree, so he fired me!"

"Ah?" The person next to him looked very shocked. He looked at his companion in a daze, and after a while, he said in a panic: "Me, my boss also said that business is not good and he wants to lower wages. Doesn't he also want to fire me?"

"You!" The expelled person was obviously stunned for a moment, with an expression that ranged from shock to sympathy to a little bit of surprise. Even the sad mood was diluted a lot. "It's not that business is bad at all. Don't be fooled by him." Cheated!"

"how do you know?"

"Hmph, I went over there secretly to take a look today. Someone took over my job just after I left. I went up to question him. He said that the person who took over my job only needed 80% of my salary. Of course he would hire Someone with a lower salary." No. 1 said angrily: "That damn vampire, I worked for him for three years, three years, and he fired me immediately just because someone else wanted a lower salary! "

"I still have four children to feed at home. I, I was supposed to go to work today, but I dare not tell my family that without a job, I would have no shame to go back. I'm afraid..." As he spoke, the man's face He looked sad, as if he was about to cry, "I can't make any money, how can my family live? My daughter is only 4 year old..."

As he spoke, the man covered his face with his hands, and a sound of sobs came out.

The man's words were like a bullet, hitting the hearts of everyone in the teahouse, and everyone turned their heads to look this way.

Suddenly, a man at another table let out a long sigh, "I was fired too."

"What!" Someone at another table frowned and asked, "Isn't it because someone wants a lower salary?"

"Yes!" The man pursed his lips, "Don't you know, there has been an influx of people into Baghdad recently, all from the middle and lower reaches of the Euphrates River."

"Ah, I know what you're talking about. There are three of them near my house."

This sentence immediately resonated with everyone, and they all said that they had seen how many people from outside the country entered Baghdad during this period.

"Think about it, so many people come to Baghdad, they also need to eat, and they have no connections. Of course, when looking for a job, they can only impress the bosses with low wages!"

"Yes, I've met a few people over there who took the initiative to ask if they were hiring, and they directly said they could work for [-]% of the salary!"

A word from you or a word from me immediately heightened the atmosphere. The teahouse was noisy and everyone participated in the discussion. The result was simple: despicable foreigners took the jobs of locals.

Soon, everyone was discussing that the government should ban those despicable foreigners from entering Baghdad and drive them out!
"It's impossible. It's not like you don't know that the Euphrates River was diverted by terrorist bombs. It's difficult to drink water downstream. The factories have stopped working a long time ago. How can those people go back? If they don't come to Baghdad, they will die!"

After saying this, everyone also sighed. Ordinary people are actually quite simple and kind-hearted, as long as you don't touch their bottom line.

"In the final analysis, the government is still doing nothing. It is like a waste. It has lost its land and watched terrorists blow up rivers but can't do anything. How long has it been!"

Soon enough, people turned from cursing the despicable foreigners to denouncing the government's inaction.

Throughout history, regardless of ancient or modern times, whether at home or abroad, people in the capital have always liked to discuss politics and national policies...

Everyone made various remarks one after another to denounce the government from various angles, and the atmosphere became increasingly heated.

At this time, no one noticed that the two people who spoke first, including the one who said he was also fired, quietly left the teahouse one after another.

Retire after success and move on to the next family!
At the same time, there were more than 100 such teams operating in teahouses, restaurants, bars and other crowded places in Baghdad.

At the end of the day, more than 5 people were affected!

And these 5 people will definitely subconsciously tell others about what happened today after they go back, spreading it from one person to ten and then to a hundred. The scope of this person-to-person transmission is like a virus, spreading among the middle and lower classes in Baghdad.

Yes, not just the bottom!

A very simple plot was designed by Wang Zhen, the great enlightener, voter, God's spokesperson on earth, and the great prophet of the Democratic and Peace Party.

Naturally, the striking surface cannot be just that small.

The reason why the bottom is called the bottom is because their voices and influence can only echo at the bottom and will never be heard by the top.

Therefore, there is also promotion for the middle level!
At the bottom level, the propaganda focuses on the fiercer competition between foreigners and locals for jobs.

For the middle level, the focus of propaganda is that the large number of foreigners pouring into Baghdad can provide cheaper labor, prompting them to actively look for cheap labor to replace current employees and increase profit margins.

There is nothing wrong with this kind of thing. People do business reasonably and legally in order to make money. It is impossible to use cheap labor and have to hire expensive labor!
This can quickly trigger conflicts between foreigners and locals at the bottom.

Of course, considering that the middle-level people are more knowledgeable and accepting of new problems, Wang Zhen added some more things to the plot for them.

For example, the middle and lower reaches of the Euphrates River were affected by the disaster, and economic activities were completely stagnant, causing huge economic losses. The consequence of this was that the people had no money.

When people have no money, their purchasing power will drop significantly, causing some products to be unsaleable.Unsaleable products will first lead to product sales at reduced prices, reducing business profits. Later, in order to recover costs, businesses have to reduce production and increase selling prices, which will further make products unsalable...

A vicious cycle will lead to economic crises in local areas.

Iraq is only a little older in total, and one-third of its land is occupied by IS. Its ability to withstand economic crises is very low. Therefore, the economic crisis caused by the middle and lower reaches of the Euphrates River will definitely spread to surrounding areas, and Baghdad, as a The capital and economic center must bear the brunt!
Therefore, these middle-level people had better prepare for the economic crisis from now on!

In order to survive this crisis, we will not go bankrupt due to being affected.

What is justified!
At first, this kind of sound came from the bar. Two people were drinking. I don’t know how they came to discuss this aspect. One side was the economic crisis group, and the other side was the optimistic conservative. Then they started to argue. Xu had drunk too much. Ask the people around you to help make the judgment.

Then, give examples and list data. The more middle-level people are, the more they have their own judgment and the more willing they are to stick to their own opinions. When the first participant in the discussion appears, more and more people participate, and finally a clear distinction is formed. The two factions began to argue.

Until the bar was closed in the end, no party had an absolute advantage and won, but the bar owner won. Because of the argument, everyone drank more and more, and the more they drank, the more they got drunk...

When a few lightbulbs pop up over the bar owner's head, the opportunity to make a fortune will come!
The Men's Basketball World Cup has just passed, and bar business has obviously begun to decline. If there are more discussions like this, wouldn't it be another good opportunity for bar customers to surge!
As for Wang Zhen, what he wanted was the discussion itself, and the result was unimportant.

Whether it is the victory of the crisis faction or the victory of the conservatives, the argument that an economic crisis will occur in the middle and lower reaches and ultimately affect the country has emerged. So, no matter what faction you are, you will inevitably be prepared for the economic crisis.

According to "Murphy's Law": The more you worry about bad things, the more likely they will happen.

Wang Zhen estimates that economic crisis is inevitable, no matter how big or small it is.

Wang Zhen, on the other hand, is ready to build on this foundation and speed up the evolution of the situation.

……

Bairvanai, big market, canteen private room.

Today Wang Zhen invited Kang Xianjun, Kuang Jianwei, Song Yuwu, Bao Zhongping, Nie Huixiong, Dai Jianjia... and other acquaintances.

Without Lao Hou, if Lao Hou came, he would be the first to stop Wang Zhen from doing such a thing.

At the banquet, everyone was familiar with each other, and Wang Zhen was still everyone's savior. Although his status was different now, after a few glasses of wine, the estrangement was temporarily dissipated.

After reminiscing about the past and chatting about how many preparations had been made to save people, the atmosphere at the wine table became more and more lively.

At the climax, Wang Zhen explained what he had invited everyone to come today, "I have some things to promote in Baghdad, and one of them needs help from our people."

"Brother Wang, what you said is too foreign, don't you think of us as brothers!" Kang Xianjun said loudly: "What do you mean by helping? It's your own business, isn't that what you should do!"

"Let's talk about it!"

"That's right, if Brother Wang has any plans, just tell me!"

"We Chinese in Iraq just want to stick together!"

Wang Zhen was very satisfied after listening to everyone's chatter. What is personal charm?
“I hope that our people can help bring a message to Baghdad. Based on the current situation in Iraq and the capabilities and actions of the Iraqi government, the Chinese Chamber of Commerce has judged that Iraq’s consumption capacity will decline in the next year. In order to cope with this Under this situation, Chinese businessmen decided to reduce the export volume of goods here. After all, once there is a backlog of goods, the losses will be too great!" Wang Zhen said with a solemn face.

"Hey, Iraq's consumption power has decreased?" Dai Jianqian sat up straight and his face became solemn. Others were in the same state.

Wang Zhen expressed his judgment and finally added: "That's not all. There are still some top secrets that I can't reveal to you brothers."

What Wang Zhen is talking about is fighting.

Once his plan is implemented smoothly, there will inevitably be a war between Baghdad and Ramadi in the future. The war will inevitably lead to the interruption of transportation, the lag in the circulation of goods, and the decline of business.

If the Democratic and Peace Party also attacks Tikrit, it will have a huge impact on people's livelihood.

Everyone looked at each other. While everyone was very curious about the secret Wang Zhen told, they also felt that this matter might be more serious than the downstream economic problems.

In this way, it is almost certain that economic activity will decline and consumption power will decrease.

This news cannot be ignored!

While paying attention to it, I am also deeply grateful.

Foreign trade profits are indeed high, but there are limits. If a batch of goods is discounted, all the money earned from previous transactions will be thrown into it. If not, the capital chain will be broken, and the consequences will be more serious.

The year before last, Ace suddenly invaded Iraq, and then made inappropriate remarks against China and began to target the Chinese. Every incident that occurred caused many Chinese businessmen to be affected and suffered heavy losses.

Not to mention those who died as a result of the war, they had heard a lot about the bankruptcies.

If they don't know this news and only see the rapid development of the big market and the continuous increase in foreign trade stockpiles, they may suffer heavy losses.

In comparison, if you reduce some of the volume and wait and see what happens, even if something doesn't happen, you will make less money at most, but you won't lose money anyway!
For the sake of their business, what matters more is insurance!

"Thank you, Brother Wang, for informing us. This is really life-saving!" Song Yuwu stood up and said, picking up the wine glass.

As he took the lead, others also stood up and wanted to toast together.

In the eyes of everyone, Wang Zhen is so righteous!

Why ask them for help? This is clearly a tactful way to remind them so that everyone can avoid losses.

This is not righteousness, what is righteousness!

"Yes, let's toast to Brother Wang together!"

"Brother Wang is the white jade pillar of our Chinese businessmen in Iraq, the purple golden beam that supports the sea!"

"If it weren't for Brother Wang, I don't know how many people would have suffered heavy losses."

Wang Zhen was a little dazed by everyone's sudden enthusiasm. No, I'm begging you to do something. Why are you thanking me?
Although he couldn't figure out the situation for a while, Wang Zhen stood up and thanked with a smile without delay, "I still have Optimus Prime. We are all Autobots, right? It's passed, it's passed, we are all Chinese, eating on other people's territory. , if we don’t unite as one, then who can look down on us!”

"Brother Wang is right. If we don't unite as one, no one will think highly of us. Come on, come on, let's do it!"

"Done!"

……

Begging for a guaranteed monthly pass!
We have dropped 100 places on the monthly vote list. If we can’t get on the list, we have no exposure!
Dear readers and fathers, Old Fireworks needs to eat!
