Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

C3138 The Media Style of Absurd Legend

This was truly a very interesting game. In the battle against the public in Spain, Xiao Letian had already gained the upper hand, because he had obtained the most comprehensive and accurate information, while the Government of Spain was still confused!

It was also because of this time difference that Xiao Letian could be like a dog in the face of this public opinion war. It was all thanks to this information transmission technology that was left behind in the world, as well as the fact that there were very few teleportation stations in the world.

He definitely could not leak out all the information in one breath. That would have an impact but would not be able to drive the tempo!

They had to put it out little by little. First, they had to put in a big piece of news, saying that the Spanish fleet had ambushed Brunei Bay during the night, but they didn't tell them the truth!

Journalists, don't be anxious. There is no answer to your questions. After all, the transmission of telegrams from east to west is still inefficient. We have no choice but to write so much with the first telegram!

The Chinese spread out their hands without any comment. The reporters were so anxious that they could only scratch their ears and scratch their cheeks in helplessness!

However, the reports still had to be written. The chief editor and the boss were already worried. Such hot news must be hype up. Sales volume was increased by using this kind of hot news!

"If you can't get the latest news, get lost! I will dismiss you! " How many nights had these reporters been scolded by their superiors?

Not only was his superior anxious, even the curious readers were also anxious! Since the advent of the media, humans finally had a window into the world.

Although the early newspapers were still primitive, the information was inaccurate and filled with bizarre stories, such as vampires, zombies, mummies, and other absurd news.

Before the absence of a newspaper, if ordinary citizens wanted to know what the world was like, they could only listen to the rumors spread by the pastors of the church, the feudal lords beside them, the merchants, bards, and so on.

One could imagine how bizarre and bizarre the understanding of the human world was during that era! There is a market for any of your lies, and people believe them!

He knew that the 20 mid-century leaf s, the hot topic of European newspapers was still adventure shows. explorer came from the distant rainforests, deserts, islands … He brought all kinds of rare animals and plants, as well as news of ancient ruins.

These plates were the most popular, but of course, there were already a lot of fake news going on. Many so-called explorer would piece together the bones, skin, feathers, and other parts of several animals to make a so-called rare creature.

This kind of randomly made up news could also be exchanged for huge economic benefits!

This was a barbaric era for the media, and of course, it was also a golden age for development. Humans' natural curiosity was forcing the media to grow!

This sort of thing was so fun to watch! It was human nature to watch! And war was the most attractive thing in all the news, because it was so much conflict!

The Franco-Prussian War was of course exciting, but it was European war after all. The news spread quickly, and people could quickly get the latest war reports. This way, the novelty and mystique decreased!

However, this Asian war was different. This was the ancient and mysterious Asia, and it was also the rainforest filled Southeast Asia. The conflict between the ancient civilizations and the modern European powers was already full of drama!

Many people would never travel to Asia in their lifetime. The price of a ticket to Asia in that era was not something that ordinary families could afford!

Only the news, only the newspapers could satisfy their curiosity!

"The Philippines! What a distant island country that is! I heard that volcanoes are everywhere there, and the crater of those volcanoes is spewing out gold liquid! "

"There are a lot of barbarians there. If they can blow away thousands of poisonous needles in one go, would the Chinese army be able to defeat them?"

"I heard that there are also spells!" They called it the Descending Head Technique! There's even a mysterious troop that can teach imps how to fight! "

"The barbarians in Southeast Asia would turn the dead baby into a ghost army, an invincible army!"

"There are also huge chimpanzees as tall as mountains in the jungle. They are very tall, taller than the Tower of London... This kind of huge boulder which the gorillas are investing in can easily smash the main battleship of Royal Navy! "

"Sea monster!" Of course, you cannot forget about the existence of sea monsters. In the Southern Ocean, there are huge Sea Turtle Goblin, and their entire back is an island. They are controlled by Chinese Mages, and can completely block the entrance to Brunei Bay … "

"A giant sea turtle can wipe out all the Spanish navy with a single crash!"

The streets and alleys were filled with this kind of bizarre talk. Almost at the same time, the big, well-informed cities in Europe all became infested with South China Sea fever.

Very soon, this surge of energy rushed towards the smaller cities and villages. To these places, the rumors were even more bizarre and unsightly. The story of the Chinese and European dragons that were hanged in the sky appeared!

Demand is the market, and the market must be satisfied by someone!

Don't expect these media reporters to be of high moral standards and professional spirit. While being pushed to the brink by their superiors, they also heard the bizarre legend of the commoners. They were also shameless. Let's start making it up!

Two glasses of gin and they couldn't control their pens, and all the journalists in Europe had become whimsical novelists these days, good at writing ghost stories.

The stories of the common folk, such as the chimpanzees, the kid army, the barbarian soldiers, and the sea demons, were all very rich in color as they continued to be deeply processed.

At this moment, the editors and bosses of the various newspapers were overjoyed. The readers were also excited as the sales of newspapers throughout Europe soared. printing plant and the paper mill had also become rich!

After the news of the Spaniard's sneak attack on Brunei's Bay on January 8th was released, there were no new news until January 11th. These three days, the entire Europe had been brainwashed by the Asian ghost story!

"Hahaha …" That's the effect I want! Who cares if it's a ghost story, I'll have the European headlines first! "

"headline! What I, Xiao Letian, want is headlines!"

Spaniard was also stunned, I spent all my effort to defend myself and try to poke holes in Xiao Letian's hypocritical face, why is this scene suddenly changing according to the rules!

What the heck was this? What nonsense was this? How did a good war news turn into a bizarre ghost story conference?

How could these people know the importance of snatching the headlines? Once they got the headlines, they would get the recognition and have the right to speak!

As long as we, the Chinese race, occupy the headlines of Europe today, then the news will follow!

Sure enough, on January 12th, the leading European newspapers and newspapers, which were the serious media from various countries, suddenly released a piece of news on the front page that completely shocked all of Europe!
