Zuo Chen secretly commissioned people to research weapons.
The reason for issuing the blessing cards first was to prevent the possibility of the Empire forcibly intervening.
But.
This still aroused the covetousness of the empire.
And in accordance with the empire’s past practices, it will surely resort to the same old tricks, first using the national audience to exert pressure.
Then extend an olive branch.
Finally, a scene that shows everyone is happy.
pity.
This time, the Empire is facing Zuo Chen.
Zuo Chen reminded Zuo Zhijing to go along with the imperial officials' words and give a superficial agreement first.
While the entire internet was cheering and celebrating.
The Zuo family is waiting for the empire's response.
Unfortunately, the empire had been complacent for a long time, and the Zuo Clan had no choice but to agree.
The person behind it immediately wanted to put on airs.
The hype surrounding the blessing card is about to die down.
Zuo Chen began to have the gray network create momentum.
The gray network compiled all of the empire's past acts of using its power to oppress others into a nine-grid JPG image.
Then.
Zuo Zhijing began expressing his regret online, saying that the Empire had not responded to their follow-up questions for many days. The country's sincerity was too great for them to accept.
I don't want to think the worst of the empire, but the facts are right in front of us.
So, many companies make these kinds of compromises under our unwitting pressure?
[If that's the case, no wonder so many companies and scientific labs have disappeared. Not because they went bankrupt, but because they lost money and went bankrupt due to insufficient income.]
The empire reaped the rewards, but only offered recognition for the research findings without providing any compensation?
If we are accomplices, then what is the Empire?
【We didn't do it on purpose, we did it for the Empire... God the hell the Empire, is this what you call doing anything?!】
Humans are emotional beings.
Emotions are easily swayed.
When they realize they have unintentionally made a mistake, while they try their best to clear themselves, they will feel sympathy for the victims and stand on the side of justice to seek justice for them.
A thousand-mile dike can be breached by an ant hole.
The empire had been complacent for a long time, and thus became arrogant.
This gave Zuo Chen and his group an opportunity.
This not only freed them from the Empire's covetousness of their success, but also made the Empire a target of public criticism.
A gray network has emerged.
This matter will not be easily suppressed.
The controversy it sparked overshadowed all the trending topics online, and it remained at the top of the list for a long time.
soon.
The empire pushed one person forward.
Things will gradually calm down.
"People are the foundation, enabling some to build fortresses. But given the right conditions to awaken people, they can also become the fulcrum to destroy that ivory tower."
Zuo Chen was very satisfied with the situation online; he had never expected this incident to bring down the empire.
All he had to do was plant a seed called "questioning" and wait for time to ferment it.
Qu Jian'er raised an eyebrow: "Unfortunately, there are still too few people to serve as a fulcrum and make it too difficult to move."
Zuo Chen stood in front of Qu Jian'er: "Don't worry, it's just that your trending topic was taken down."
Qu Jian'er spoke nonsense with a straight face: "Man, you don't understand my position. As the queen of trending topics, would I care about a little bit of traffic?"
Zuo Chen forced himself not to laugh.
He watched Qu Jian'er leave to film a movie.
Then, he twirled the beaded bracelet on his wrist. In the sunlight, his glasses unusually shimmered with two thin glints of light, so thin they seemed capable of severing any restless hand at any moment.
Zuo Chen stared gloomily into the distance, his eyes fixed on the horizon. In truth, he had long since learned how to deal with the imperial family.
But a ray of sunlight, formed from the struggle, took shape, and he embraced that ray of light that belonged to him. Therefore, he no longer sought to devour the empire through mutual destruction.
Instead, we changed our approach.
For example: boiling a frog in lukewarm water.
***
Qu Jian'er parked her car on the side of the road as she left.
She sorted out her thoughts. The next few days were packed with activities. After filming the remaining scenes, she had to attend the Bai family's banquet, followed by the competition.
During this time, she also needs to find the other four elephants in the final four in order to treat Zuo Chen's mother.
Thinking and pondering.
Qu Jian'er stopped in her tracks, looked at the group of reporters who seemed to have been waiting for her for a long time, and then looked at Meng Langya.
Meng Langya retorted angrily, "Who gave you permission to come here? My show hasn't aired yet, so interviews aren't welcome!"
"Director Meng, don't be so impatient. We won't knowingly do wrong. We'll release it after the movie is released."
"Besides, we were conducting an open and aboveboard interview."
"There's an old saying in the Empire: 'When in Rome, do as the Romans do.' Since you're here to film in the Empire, you should abide by the local customs..."
Qu Jian'er's sarcastic remark came from behind the crowd: "I always told you to read more books in your spare time to improve your literary skills. Now look what's happened, you've embarrassed yourselves in front of non-humans, who can't understand human language at all."
As she spoke, she looked at the group of reporters and labeled them as "incapable of understanding human language".
Qu Jian'er took off the little yellow helmet with the bamboo dragonfly on it: "I am very well-mannered, you can ask me any questions."
"You just said we're not human!?"
Finally, some reporters realized what was happening.
Qu Jian'er looked at Meng Langya and asked curiously, "What's the lunchbox for lunch today?"
Meng Langya blinked: "...Rice with toppings."
Qu Jian'er, appearing to be a non-picky eater, said, "Okay, same as always, I want two portions."
"You must be Qu Jian'er."
"Since you've offered to ask you, why are you refusing to answer us?"
The reporter watched as Qu Jian'er walked past them, chatting happily with Meng Langya.
They were immediately furious.
