"Is the radio broken?" Walter reached out to pick it up.
Le Goff watched curiously.
At this moment, the rustling sound stopped, and a voice rang out from inside, which made them feel extremely familiar even after half a year.
"Hello, friends all over the world. I am Ye Baizhi from the Republic of China."
Ye Baizhi!!
It’s that Ye Baizhi!!
The two were stunned, looked at each other, and saw the familiar fear in each other's eyes.
This woman...
Even though so much time has passed, it can still make them so scared and terrified!
It was as if she was in front of them as soon as she opened her mouth.
"How did her voice come from in here?!" Walter stuttered, and for a moment, he seemed to have lost the ability to think.
Le Goff, however, still had some sense and immediately replied, "The radio is made in the Republic of China! Of course she can help us change the channel!"
"That means - she can speak to the whole world through the radio at any time?!" Walter was shocked.
This is a major discovery!
But you must report to Her Majesty the Queen immediately!
However, Le Goff slapped him and said in a hurried voice: "Shut up first and listen to what she is saying!"
Ye Baizhi's voice was clear on the radio.
"Recently, my country has developed televisions that can watch a variety of videos and live broadcasts, greatly enriching the entertainment lives of people around the world. I, Ye Baizhi, believe this is an invention that will benefit all people in the world."
so?
If you think this is beneficial to all mankind, will you use the radio to advertise and encourage people to buy it?
The two speculated like this, but the words coming out of the radio were far beyond their expectations -
"...Therefore, I will dispatch warships to the capitals of various countries and construct large screens in their most prosperous squares as gifts to each country. Of course, due to the long journey and the need to carry strategic materials, our warships will only carry core components. All other materials will be funded by the governments of various countries."
Walter and Le Goff looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.
They can only understand half of the Republic of China version, and they only learned it in the past six months.
But later, it was followed by versions in various languages from all over the world, and naturally both of them understood it, every word.
But it was because I understood that I was confused.
They seemed to understand every word, but also seemed to understand nothing.
Bai Zhi only said these, and at the end, she said lightly -
"The gifts have been sent. Please accept them peacefully."
Walter: “…”
Le Goff: “…”
They played it on loop and listened to it many times in a row.
But they still suspected that they had heard it wrong!
Ye Baizhi said that the Republic of China invented televisions, and she thought it was a very good thing. She planned to build a large screen in the big square of every country's capital.
However, she only brought the important parts, and everything else was funded by the governments of various countries.
In other words, Ye Baizhi was telling each country in a notification tone that she was coming to deliver gifts.
The most important thing is——
She sent a warship as a gift!!!
Can I not accept it?
Haha, just ask her warships if they agree!
Peacefully accepting gifts, does that mean... that if we don't accept them, there will be no peace?!
Walter was dumbfounded: “She hasn’t made any noise for half a year, and once she makes a noise, it becomes such a big deal?!”
Le Goff swallowed and said, "Yes, this is really unexpected..." As arrogant as ever!
If someone comes to your door in a warship and delivers a gift, would you accept it?
Don't accept? Beat!
"So what is she thinking? Why should she install a big screen in every country?!" Walter scratched his head and questioned his soul.
Why for each country?
What on earth is this woman trying to do?!
Le Goff looked bewildered.
After a while, the two looked at each other and said in unison: "Report it quickly!!"
They reported it, and then received the answer from the court—
"Let her fix it!"
Obviously, Country F and Country Y are about to fight with Country D. Ye Baizhi's warships have become famous after fighting Japan, and they don't want to cause trouble at this time.
The two sides are eyeing each other covetously, and war is about to break out. Who is willing to fight against Ye Jun at this time?
Promise her!
No matter what tricks she plays, get rid of her first. We must not let her affect the battle situation!
If it can be built, it can be demolished. It’s not that they are afraid of her, but there are obviously more important things at hand, so she becomes secondary.
In just half a year, Ye Jun has gained countless warships.
The route has been planned, and each warship will follow the route to several countries.
Some countries felt that the big screen was advantageous and not too expensive. They wanted to be on good terms with Ye Baizhi, so they actively cooperated and helped Ye Jun's people build it.
A big screen, ready to go.
Some countries were afraid that Ye Baizhi would cause trouble, so they cooperated and wanted to send the person away quickly.
There are also countries that are quite dissatisfied.
Why do you want to come to our country to repair the big screen?
Why should we cooperate with you? !
Who do you think you are?
Absolutely impossible!
This is the case in Country D.
They had tried to win over Ye Baizhi before, wanting to join forces with her to deal with Country F and Country Y, but they never expected that Ye Baizhi would directly refuse without giving them any face or saying a word.
Country D was very angry.
They are a big country in today's world order, so of course they are not happy if someone dares to reject them.
People from Country F and Country Y had witnessed the power of Ye Baizhi's warships, but not Country D. So when Deng Qi and his men went to Country D, the other party replied—
"We don't agree. Country D will not accept this gift!"
Deng Qi: “…”
He was silent for a moment, then waved his hand: "Continue to the harbor."
So, the Republic of China's warships continued to approach.
The head of state of country D ordered: "Defeat the Republic of China warships!"
Then, the harbor began to fire at the warship.
"boom--"
The first hit missed.
There will be no second chance.
Because - Deng Qi also ordered the artillery to fire.
Today's warships are much more powerful than those half a year ago, and even Country D is absolutely unable to withstand them.
Her warships are the bullies of the sea. If you meet them and they want to attack you, you will die!
When the head of country D received the news that his port had been bombed and several warships had been destroyed, his face turned black.
"This Ye Baizhi from the Republic of China! Someone, send troops—"
His subordinates hurriedly suggested, "Headmaster! The most important thing for us now is the war with Country F and Country Y! The Republic of China is far away on the other side of the ocean, so it doesn't make much sense for us to fight them! Besides, we've received news from other countries that they really are going to leave after building the big screen. Their warships are too powerful, and we can't waste our combat power with them!"
If they fight with Ye Baizhi first, it will only make Country Y and Country F laugh secretly. They may even take advantage of the situation and cause Country D to suffer a great loss.
The leader's face darkened. He thought again and again, and finally nodded, gritting his teeth.
"Then let them come in and fix it!!"
The Republic of China's warships have not yet arrived in Country F and Country Y. Most of the court officials in the two countries think that they should be allowed to come. As long as the people are kept under close watch, they will not dare to do anything once they land.
But some court officials firmly disagreed!
Even though the Queen had given the order, they continued to raise objections.
Just as the debate was going on, news came that the port of Country D had been bombed.
Suddenly, all those who opposed it withered.
"Their warships are invincible in the harbor. Isn't it just a big screen? We're taking advantage of it, so of course we should let them build it!"
"Yes, quickly deal with the Republic of China people. We still have to fight with Country D."
"I really don't know what Ye Baizhi is thinking, but if I repair it, I can also tear it down..."
“Walter is right, this woman is really domineering to the extreme!”
"The D country's harbor was bombed, and a number of warships were destroyed. This is definitely good news for us. Our chances of winning have increased!"
"When Ye Jun arrives, we should be a little more polite to them. We absolutely cannot cause trouble now."
…
The entire court spoke in unison, and the queen slowly nodded.
In fact, their relationship with the Republic of China was also very ordinary. Half a year ago, the Republic of China asked them to pay a huge amount of compensation, but they directly refused and even spoke out to reprimand them...
Later, Ye Baizhi no longer asked for compensation, but the relationship between the two countries remained bad.
But compared with their relationship with Country D, it is much better.
At least, the most important thing for them now is to fight against Country D. As long as Ye Baizhi of the Republic of China stops talking about compensation, their relationship will still be able to improve.
As a result, there was no more opposition from the two countries.
After all, if Ye Jun also blew up their harbor because of their opposition...
That would really make me angry!
The big powers have all agreed. Do any of the other small countries still think they can challenge the Republic of China’s warships?
So, the warships sent by Ye Baizhi successfully built huge screens in the capital squares of one country after another along the route.
If someone doesn't want to accept a gift, the warship will fire and the other party will immediately accept the gift.
Mandatory gift giving, this is definitely a first!
For a time, countless countries were gritting their teeth in hatred.
——This Ye Baizhi from the Republic of China!!
If you want to give a gift, then give it. Why would you force someone to accept it by sailing a warship? That's not giving a gift, that's making an enemy!
But obviously, Ye Baizhi didn't care.
Their curses did not enter her ears at all.
After the large screen in Country Y was built, Ye Jun retreated readily.
Although everyone found it unbelievable, it turned out that they made this special trip just to build a big screen for them in the square!
After the big screen in Country Y was completed, some other countries were still in the process of building it.
Countless people from Country Y ran to the big screen every day, pointing at it and talking about it in a flurry of voices—
"What the hell is this?"
"It's said to be a large screen, capable of displaying images!"
"What image?"
“It’s like watching a performance, with not only sound but also visuals!”
"What?"
…
They looked at the screen with gossipy eyes and curious expressions.
Three days after the big screen was built, at night, when countless people were still bragging and chatting in the square—
The big screen suddenly lit up.
"Ding—Central Channel 1 of the Republic of China Television Station is officially operational!"
They couldn't understand it, but there were words on it, and they were in the language of the Republic of China and Y Chinese.
“Oh my, it’s bright!!”
"Oh my god! What the hell is this?! It's so scary!"
"Wow, mom, I'm scared!!"
"Is this a TV? Does it have sound and images? What does it say?"
"It says on it—this is the Republic of China TV station, and it starts operations today."
"What Republic of China TV station?"
"You don't even know the Republic of China, but it's the country that built this big screen for us!"
…
They stared at the screen with wide eyes.
"Hello everyone, this is CCTV-1, the Republic of China Television Station. Next, we will be broadcasting the first self-produced drama of the Republic of China - "Collection of Short Stories from the Republic of China". I hope you enjoy it!"
Before everyone could understand what was going on, the host disappeared and the video switched scenes.
The words "Episode 1" were written in large letters on it.
It was evening in Country Y, but on the screen it was morning and the sun had just risen.
“Oh my god, this is amazing!”
"There are people inside. How did they get in?"
"No, they didn't get in there. They're from the Republic of China. This is just an image, recorded in advance!"
"How do you know so much?"
"A few days ago, when the Republicans were building here, I had a few words with a Republican!"
"Oh my god, the Republic of China is so awesome!!"
"Yes, they can actually create something like this!"
…
On the screen, after the sun rose, a house's door opened.
Gradually, the discussions died down, and the Y people sat on the ground and started watching TV.
This is a story about a village. In this village there is a wealthy but stingy and bad businessman, a young and handsome hunter, and a beautiful girl from a farmer's family at the entrance of the village.
The girl and the hunter were childhood sweethearts, and the hunter saved money to marry the girl.
Every time the handsome hunter came back from the mountains, he would pick beautiful flowers, saying as he picked them, "Such beautiful flowers should go with my beautiful sweetheart..."
Everyone in the play speaks the language of the Republic of China, but there are subtitles in Y Chinese.
Even those who cannot read can understand this simple plot through their obvious expressions.
The hunter placed the flowers on the girl's windowsill. The girl opened the window, took the flowers and began to sing.
"I know that these beautiful flowers were given to me by my handsome warrior. He is so tall and handsome. I will only marry him in this life. My love for him is like that mountain..."
"That's beautiful. This girl is so pretty."
"Yes, she and that young hunter are lovers. I'm sure they will be together!"
"Beautiful girls from the Republic of China, beautiful scenery from the Republic of China."
"A handsome hero of the Republic of China. His heroic figure fighting his prey is truly captivating. No wonder girls like him."
"Oh—I want to go to the Republic of China!"
…
The people of country Y were talking about it.
The story continues.
In order to marry the girl as soon as possible, the hunter decided to go into the mountains to kill a tiger and sell it as a betrothal gift. While he was away, the girl was betrothed by her parents to the stupid son of a rich man in the village.
The girl didn't want to marry him, so she sang at the window—
"My hero, when will you return?"
The first two episodes ended, and the show was previewed to continue tomorrow, and then the TV was turned off.
The people of country Y were dumbfounded.
They are enjoying the show!
"Oh, how come it's gone?"
"How can I know what happens next? I want to know if the girl and the hunter are together!"
"Such a pretty girl, she should marry a hunter!"
"Ahhh, how can I get to the Republic of China? I want to help them!"
…
The big screen lights up!
There are also stories played inside, which is so interesting!
The news spread quickly, and countless people came from all over, sitting in the square, waiting eagerly for the TV to turn on.
During the day, the big screen is usually on.
However, the "Collection of Short Stories from the Republic of China" is only available in the evening. During the day, videos introducing the Republic of China and televisions from the Republic of China are broadcast continuously.
Maybe it's too rare, even with such content, everyone still enjoys watching it.
Many people in country Y do nothing every day. They just take a piece of bread, cross their legs, and sit in front of the big screen, curiously watching what is being played on it.
It is busiest at night, but there are also many people during the day.
A video introducing the Republic of China is being played right now. The Republic of China was a vast country with everything, beautiful scenery, and different landscapes throughout the year. There were many large mansions in the Republic of China, which is very interesting.
At the same time, the Republic of China was carrying out infrastructure construction, which was truly amazing!
Railways, roads, schools, hospitals, various factories and bustling markets...
They watched and discussed -
"Oh, God, it's so wonderful to live in the Republic of China!"
"I want to go to the Republic of China. I think the Republic of China period is very interesting. Look at the clothes that girl is wearing. They are really beautiful. I wonder if they sell them in the Republic of China?"
"The transportation and cities in the Republic of China are actually better than ours!"
"Their people live well, their wages are high, and they're not exploited by capitalists!"
"I want to go to the Republic of China."
"I want to go to the Republic of China!"
"I want to go to the Republic of China, and I also want to buy a TV!"
"Some businessmen have already gone to the Republic of China to buy it. It's said to be not cheap, at least this amount!"
“So expensive?!”
"Yeah, nowadays probably only rich people can afford it, let's just look at this big one."
"It's very cheap over there in the Republic of China, but we have to ship it thousands of miles back, and we need a signal, so it's very expensive!"
…
They looked at the screen with envy and longing.
Because of a big screen, ordinary people in Country Y were excited, but the Queen of Country Y and the courtiers of Country Y were unhappy!
"The current atmosphere is very bad. Everyone says that the Republic of China was great, and many people want to go to the Republic of China!" A court official said unhappily.
"There are also televisions from the Republic of China. Many merchants have already taken boats to buy them. The prices are extremely high. The Republic of China is doing this to attract a large amount of our money to flow into their country!"
"Yes, and that propaganda video of the Republic of China is misleading people into thinking that the Republic of China is better than ours!"
"Your Majesty, we should turn off that big screen. No, we should smash it!"
…
The court officials made suggestions in unison.
The queen was also very unhappy. She heard them praising another country every day in her own country. As a leader, how could she hold back her anger?
"Your Majesty! This is a cultural invasion! It may seem like a small matter, but the impact is enormous!"
"Yes, and as far as I know, this phenomenon also occurs in other countries. Even in some poor countries, the problem is even more serious. Everyone is very dissatisfied with it!"
The queen's eyes flashed. "Since everyone is dissatisfied... then let's ask them. Let's just protest together. No matter how powerful the Ye army is, and even if their warships dominate the sea, they can't withstand the wrath of the whole world."
Yes, no matter how powerful she is, what can she do if the whole world is against her?
She only has warships and can only run rampant on the sea.
And they all live on land!
As soon as the Queen of Country Y sent out the message, countless countries began to respond, expressing their dissatisfaction and anger.
It was also at this time that large screens were built in all countries.
The warship returned to the Republic of China.
The Queen of Country Y sent someone to cut off the power to the big screen. At this moment, the big screen that had been playing the promotional video suddenly made a rustling sound.
They were stunned and hadn't reacted yet.
"What's going on?"
"Could it be that because of the Queen and the others' protests, the people of the Republic of China turned off the propaganda video themselves?"
As soon as the words fell, a person suddenly appeared on the screen.
She was wearing a black military uniform with the word "叶" embroidered on it, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. Her delicate and beautiful face seemed a little cold.
Her eyes were filled with a cold light, making people feel a chill all over their bodies at a glance. She slowly spoke:
"Everyone, all the large screens have been installed. From today on, they will become the tools for me, Ye Baizhi, to communicate directly with various countries. Please inform the leader that I have something important to announce. I will wait for you for ten minutes."
Ten minutes later, no matter what the reason or mood.
All the leaders stood in front of the TV.
Some people were in front of the big screen, while others were in front of the small TV inside the palace.
The Queen of Country Y is right in front of the small TV.
She looked at the people on TV and said angrily, "This Ye Baizhi! From today on, no televisions made in the Republic of China are allowed to be imported. We will produce them ourselves! The big screen in the square must be completely destroyed!"
The big screen in the square, the imported TV, everyone can see it, but it is controlled by the leader of another country. The consequences are unimaginable!
Inside the screen, Ye Baizhi, who had been wiping her glasses, put them on and put down her handkerchief.
"Ten minutes are up. What I'm about to say is very important. I hope the leaders of various countries and the ordinary people watching the live broadcast will remember it."
The queen sneered.
You said you would remember it?
Do you have the ability to be so rampant? !
"Here, I must warn everyone that war has brought indelible disasters to the people of the world. My slogan, Ye Jun, is - everything for peace, so we have the obligation and confidence to maintain world peace and prevent the occurrence of war. I, Ye Baizhi, will work for peace all my life." Baizhi said calmly on the screen.
She said this in Japan, and after she said this, it was the Emperor of Japan who apologized.
At this moment, she said it again.
This was the first time most people had heard this. The head of state of Country D immediately flew into a rage: "Who do you think you are? Maintaining world peace? Haha, let's see how you can stop it!!"
Someone actually thinks she can bring world peace?
Is she kidding?!
It is very difficult to bring peace to a country, let alone bring peace to the whole world?
That's basically impossible!
Ye Baizhi must be talking in her sleep!
Could it be that he didn't want to waste his fighting strength and didn't fight Ye Jun, giving this woman such great confidence? !
The head of state of country D was almost laughing out of anger.
Inside the screen, Bai Zhi said calmly—
"I know you must be thinking right now, why do I say this?"
Leader of Country F: "..." If you know this, why are you still so arrogant?!
Leader of Country X: "This woman must be crazy. Just because we defeated Japan and Country D temporarily gave in to her, does that mean she thinks she's invincible and the ruler of the world?"
The Queen of Country Y: "Oh, Ye Baizhi has probably forgotten how backward their country once was, and how we fought them so hard that they almost became a colony! Their country isn't strong enough to command the whole world!"
These chiefs sneered in their respective countries.
Some even said, "We must be crazy to waste our time listening to her nonsense!"
"Of course, I am so confident and I also have to thank Japan. Thank you for providing hundreds of millions of ransoms, which gave me the power to bring world peace." Bai Zhi slowly smiled.
Prime Minister of Japan: “…” So angry!
The new Emperor of Japan: "This woman is too arrogant. One day she will pay the price for her arrogance. What she took from us, we will definitely take back one day!"
So angry!
The more I think about it, the angrier I get!!
Leader of Country F: "Let the world have peace? Does she think she's a god?!"
The power to bring peace to the whole world, unless she is a god!
Le Goff and Walter looked at each other as they gathered together.
Walter: "Does she really want world peace? She has said it several times..."
Le Goff: "But the power to bring peace to the world? Do you think there will be such a thing?"
Walt: "Well, I don't think that's possible!"
Le Goff shrugged. "I think so too. So she's just daydreaming."
Last time she asked them for hundreds of millions of dollars in compensation, but then the two countries refused to pay, so she had no choice, right?
Ye Baizhi...
Actually, it’s not as scary as they imagined, right?
Bai Zhi stretched out two fingers and tapped the table. Her eyes looked through the lens, as if she was staring coldly at the people outside, with a sharp look.
"From today on, no one is allowed to provoke war. Those who provoke war will be regarded as factors of non-peace. All factors of non-peace can be eliminated!"
Outside the screen, the leaders were stunned.
What does she mean?
Is it to destroy the country that provoked the war?
Haha, what is she kidding!
Inside the screen, Bai Zhi smiled, like a child sharing a gift with a friend, offering a treasure—
"Next, I want to introduce something to everyone. I have already given gifts to every country. From now on, I will give the country that provokes war another expensive gift."
"I've given this expensive gift a name: Intercontinental Missile Baizhi No. 2. Do you think it sounds nice?"
