It's ridiculous that some people are so idle as to host and organize entertainment programs, yet they still insist on getting involved. Disagreeing with them is like disrespecting them.
The most baffling thing is that after the apocalypse, everyone needs more fun and entertainment programs. Anyway, Shi Yin doesn't understand the point of having sentimental sacrifice and remembrance segments and oath-taking segments.
If this kind of thing were used for pre-battle mobilization or to inspire people during battle, Shi Yin wouldn't say anything. But now that everyone has finally overcome hardship, to give them this kind of thing is a bit too much.
"Ms. Shiyin, what do you think?"
Shi Yin was staring blankly at the documents in her hand when she was suddenly brought up.
"What do you think?" Shi Yin looked up and saw that Bei Qingchuan had also stood up.
“Now that the first disaster is over, everyone is on edge, and there’s no point in doing these serious programs.” Kitakyokawa frowned and voiced his objection: “What we need to do now is focus on everyone’s mental well-being and help them relax.”
“We’ve all come through hardship, and we’re all so psychologically fragile. We should reflect on ourselves.” A middle-aged man retorted, “People need to be educated. After being disconnected from the internet for so long, people have been living in primitive conditions. Of course, we need to continue to provide educational value. Don’t you agree, Ms. Shiyin?”
"Reflect on yourself?" Shi Yin found it somewhat amusing: "The people aren't working hard enough."
"That's right, everyone should reflect on why we were so fragile before, and why we didn't become stronger after surviving the apocalypse," the middle-aged man said righteously. "The country has made a huge contribution, and now is the time to vigorously promote our national prestige and enhance our national credibility..."
"Simple, you two just sign a performance-based agreement." Shi Yin chuckled, "Just a reminder, the country makes money from this."
A performance-based agreement?
Upon hearing this, everyone present was stunned.
"Isn't there just two objectives? First, to appease and mobilize public sentiment. Second, to revitalize the economy and promote social continuity and economic circulation." Shi Yin casually put down the documents: "As the saying goes, 'running water never stagnates,' and a dynamic society is full of vitality, right?"
"Uh, yes." Kitakami didn't know what Shion was planning to do, but he still subconsciously agreed to Shion's words.
“Miss means that the results will speak for themselves.” Nan Zhu stood behind Shi Yin and said gently, “The two of you should each create a program and compare its popularity, traffic, activity, economic value, and degree of spiritual comfort.”
"You two have the guts to argue openly in a meeting, so you should also have the guts to sign a betting agreement, right?" Shi Yin nodded in satisfaction: "Whoever loses will become an ordinary person and experience the hardships of life, how about that?"
Although it's said that whoever loses should live the life of an ordinary person and experience the hardships of life, it's clear to everyone that Shi Yin seems to be targeting that middle-aged leader.
Everyone here is shrewd, so they could naturally tell that Shi Yin was mocking him for being ignorant and ungrateful.
His statement about "reflecting on oneself" was so outrageous that for a moment, no one spoke up for him.
"This will continue from now on. It's okay if there are conflicts. We have enough resources to implement both solutions." Shi Yin's expression remained unchanged: "The losing side should of course be punished, so please think about the consequences before proposing any ideas."
“Then please tell me roughly what kind of program you want to produce,” Nanzhu continued Shiyin’s words. “I will make a note of it and provide you with equal support in terms of finances and superpowers.”
The meeting ended there, and the two of them submitted their outlines and ideas to Nanzhu.
Even though Shi Yin had prepared herself mentally, she still couldn't help but feel dizzy and turn her eyes away when she saw the outline from the middle-aged leader, Director Jia. She barely managed to suppress the urge to roll her eyes a second time.
[Hold a Spring Festival Gala, add educational skits and activities to increase everyone's enthusiasm for fighting the apocalypse, conduct speeches and skits to promote the spirit of sacrifice and dedication, emphasize self-reliance and helping others, and end with a happy dumpling-making scene.]
"If you think there's a problem, why don't you fix it later?" The Consul General didn't know how to respond: "Could you do me a favor?"
“I can’t help. I feel like there’s something wrong with everything.” Shi Yin said expressionlessly, “If you want to promote the spirit of sacrifice, send ordinary soldiers. We ability users don’t get involved in this.”
The other ability users, including Lin Beiyue, who were listening to the meeting in the secondary conference room, all nodded in unison, their eyes filled with tears.
Don't let them appear on TV! It'll really kill them. They'll work hard, and if they're going to die, they'll die quietly. Don't make them perform on TV!
"The main thing is that everyone knows about this, but once it's publicized, it feels weird... it takes on a different meaning," Lin Beiyue muttered softly.
The surrounding superhumans all nodded in agreement.
It's one thing for them to have private gatherings and perform on stage, but let's leave them alone when it's for a national audience.
“Emphasizing self-sacrifice and helping others… I would suggest Director Jia see a psychiatrist.” Nan Zhu calmly commented: “In the midst of a blizzard, there are countless examples of good intentions going unrewarded and good deeds resulting in bad outcomes. Trust is already quite fragile right now, so suddenly emphasizing self-sacrifice to help others might backfire.”
"Putting aside the facts, theoretically speaking, it does make sense, doesn't it?" Shi Yin pouted. "It's just that we can't let it go."
"Miss, shall we return these resources?" Nan Zhu asked.
“Of course we’ll give it to you. You can’t do it all by yourself. You need the support of your peers.” Shi Yin looked at another proposal.
This is much more normal; it's just the revival of an old variety show. This show is quite lucky because all the guests are still alive. While the revival attracts viewers, it can also play the emotional card.
Shi Yin didn't understand any of this anyway. She glanced at the process and then handed it over to the people who were good at it. She didn't want to worry about everything herself; it would be exhausting.
However, there's not much to slack off on.
Shi Yin had read those illustrators and novels countless times, and she had almost memorized them all. She knew exactly what they wrote and what they painted, as well as which books were popular and well-received.
The downside of being reborn too many times is that there's no sense of novelty at all.
Well, I've been busy enough today. I should rest now, as I have a long trip to take tomorrow.
Since Shi Yin is personally leading the team, they can't just do small-scale operations in the surrounding area. This time, Shi Yin plans to go to a deeper place. If possible, Shi Yin wants to try her luck at one of the largest laboratories.
Although, given the current rapidly evolving timeline, they may have already received the news and withdrawn, it's better than nothing.
