Chapter 435 Populism Tide

On this day, it was raining in Donghai City. Zhang Yuan walked out of the subway station and sighed lightly. In recent years, the population of Donghai City has moved out of 30%, and the population is getting smaller and smaller. There is no way, the colorful world outside is really attractive. As long as there is cultural exchange, it is difficult to stop the population from moving.

The remaining two cities that prohibit the use of cherry blossoms are likely to counterattack at any time, and the situation has reached its worst situation.

"Mr. Zhang, what should we do? They accepted their fate!" Several young men shouted unwillingly.

"A bunch of cowards, cowards!"

There were more than a hundred people in the entire team, all of whom showed an angry and unwilling expression, but they had no choice in the face of the bleak reality.

Zhang Yuan sat on the bench at the subway station for a long time and whispered, "This war has no enemies...or rather, the whole world is our enemies."

"There is only one way to completely stop the spread of cherry blossoms..."

“What is it?”

Zhang Yuan said softly: "To completely overturn the entire social system and re-establish a new system. The current robot public maintenance system cannot prevent the spread of cherry blossoms without a truly centralized government."

Everyone was silent.

After a while, someone said, "But, Mr. Zhang, this is impossible."

"Yes, this is impossible."

“We have no way to do it.”

Zhang Yuan sighed. It was not only a question of whether people were willing or not, nor was it a question of how many people were willing to follow.

This robot public maintenance system is so deeply rooted, covering all aspects of life, including violent institutions, law enforcement agencies, service facilities, and almost all industries. Various high-tech robots feed humans. Without these robots, most people don’t even have the ability to take care of themselves.

What's more, just by just these few people, how can we overthrow it?

To overthrow the old system, we must have a public foundation.

Where do the remaining anti-Sakura Alliance come from now? Where do the weapons and technology come from?

Is the entire social system overturned and everyone starved to death? Are the people willing to live the life of the old era? Of course, it is impossible.

"...So, there is only a second solution, but this method is just to treat the symptoms but not the root cause, and it is not a good solution..."

"What's the solution?"

Zhang Yuan thought about it for a while, and finally said softly: "People's sapism..."

"The voices of criticizing 'cherry blossoms' in society still exist, but they are fragmented and cannot be twisted into a rope. In particular, there are quite a lot of criticisms within Donghai City. Donghai City has banned cherry blossoms and no one has used them before, so this thing has not spread."

"So, we can stand on the moral high ground, criticize the users of 'cherry blossoms', and intensify the conflicts between the two sides from a regional perspective. We can promote on the Internet that the users of 'cherry blossoms' are inferior people, and those who use 'cherry blossoms' are inferior in personality and intelligence, constantly provoke regional conflicts, and promote the superiors of Donghai City. Reduce the communication between this city and the outside world to protect our city!"

As soon as this sentence was said, almost everyone was in an uproar and looked at Zhang Yuan a little incredible.

It's so weird, so weird, even full of conspiracy theories!

Yes, politics can never appear open and upright.

Zhang Yuan smiled bitterly and said, "This is a temporary feasible solution, but it is just a treatment of symptoms but not the root cause... If you want to do it, then let's work together, if you don't want to..."

If it were not a last resort, Zhang Yuan actually did not want to use this far-right method.

But now, in order to ensure that the two remaining cities are not eroded by cherry blossoms, this is the case.

...

In the next third month, the first artificial satellite "Deep Space 1" developed by modern humans was launched in a satellite launch base near Donghai City for hundreds of thousands of years.

This is a very remarkable event!

The team led by Zhang Yuan has planned for nearly five years for this satellite. All the funds are earned by developing games and writing novels, and university professors around the world who have been relocated to "Sakura" have provided high-quality talents.

"Deep Space 1" is a low-Earth orbit satellite, which can be used mainly for related services in the A-game industry. Although "Sakura" is rampant, many people still play games, and even after taking medicine, it will become more fun to play games.

As soon as the satellite launch was successful, a large number of posts appeared on the Internet, claiming that the people of Donghai City were more intelligent than those of other cities.

"Because Donghai City bans the use of cherry blossoms, the "satellite launch plan" that has not been completed for hundreds of thousands of years has been completed."

"The people in other cities are all stupid fools! A bunch of stupid low-class people."

This group of organized navy soldiers quickly made the entire Internet angry!

The Internet itself is a place where nationalism is rampant. Due to the different cultural constructions of each city, there were originally some regional blacks. Now Donghai City suddenly rose to the top of the contempt chain, despising all other cities from an intellectual level.

"If you have the ability, you can launch satellites yourself!"

"idiot!"

Zhang Yuan typed a line of text on the keyboard, and his heart beat twice. He sighed deeply, not knowing whether his choice was right or wrong.

The posts of such posts are organized and premeditated, rather than just for the sake of being black.

Populist thought is a wild beast locked in a cage and cannot be released unless it is absolutely necessary. It is an xenophobic trend of thinking that seeks superiority. Some people even directly regard it as the place of dignity, but it is also the last firewall for mankind.

In this social environment, only 2 cities in 1,800 cities prohibit cherry blossoms. What a terrible and dangerous form, we must use national populist thoughts to resist the erosion of "cherry blossoms".

Generally speaking, the general verbal war ends in a few days and is only spread among a small circle. But now, a few days have passed, the verbal war has become more and more intense, and even the initiator of the post is striking, making people unable to express a reasonable and well-founded rebuttal.

"...Donghai City has gathered a large number of cultural producers and produced a large number of novels, animations and games. The cultural output of other cities has basically stopped!"

"If you have the ability, don't read novels or play games!"

"More and more experts and scholars choose to settle in Donghai City. These people are smart people. Why? Because this city prohibits cherry blossoms!"

"The researchers in Donghai City have launched their own satellites? Do you have the ability to launch them?"

Under various provocations, rational rebuttals began to gradually decrease, and irrational curses began to increase significantly, and even affected a large number of ordinary innocent netizens...

Various discriminatory words emerge one after another, and there are more and more rumors. Insulting words such as "Donghai Dog" and "stealing manhole covers" have even appeared. The influence has become increasingly greater. From the Internet to reality, some tourists from Donghai City were beaten when they went out, which aroused the indignation of the people of the whole city.
Chapter completed!
