Chapter 343: Control and Motivation The conditions for the rapid development of industry on the Longmian Continent have all been completed, and with the full support of the Supreme Council and endless energy, the human civilization on the entire Longmian Continent will grow in an explosive form, and in order to ensure that this growth will continue to grow in the next few years and continue to push mankind to a higher level of civilization, Zhao Yannian has done his best.
Nationalization and the planned economy can minimize the waste of resources and duplicate development, and with the control of the Supreme Council, the direction of development of the factories after nationalization is unusually clear, all production is aimed at coping with future wars, and ordinary people have begun to increase the country's combat effectiveness several times or even dozens of times more than they know it.
Ordinary human beings who are still in the state of medieval civilization are actually much more industrious and willing to work than modern people on the earth, after being instilled with spiritual and magical knowledge, they still maintain a simple outlook on life, they can be said to be the best workers, working at least ten hours a day and only giving half a day of vacation every week, as long as the food in the canteen can make them full every day, no one will complain, and every night after work, if you can come to a large glass of cheap ale and a dance in the tavern, It was enough for everyone to raise a toast to the happy life that His Majesty the Merciful King had bestowed upon them.
Of course, this kind of treatment is not very humane for Zhao Yannian, but Zhao Yannian has no way to give more to the people.
It's not that the country doesn't have the financial resources to treat its people better, but with the energy of the fog reactor, it is entirely possible to build a utopia that only exists in a dream.
But all this takes time, and what human beings lack most now is time, and all benefits are actually purposeful.
Except for those taverns and brothels that satisfy basic desires, other so-called spiritual entertainment is actually a mind control prop that has been processed and disguised, and most of the movies shown every week are carefully arranged, and these movies usually use a large number of psychological hints to affect the behavior and thoughts of all classes of mankind, with the movies setting off waves in the human world, now Zhao Yannian can control the values, emotions and even actions of almost any class of human beings as a whole.
If you need to stimulate consumption, it is definitely the best choice to put a romance film set in the new city to the whole country, and the worn and used objects of the heroes and heroines will soon set off a wave of imitation in the human world, and after such a wave passes, a large amount of money will be returned to the coffers of the kingdom, and people with empty pockets will naturally be more active in looking for new jobs.
If the army needs to be recruited, then the last war blockbuster full of Hollywood special effects is definitely the best recruitment advertisement to show a few weeks before the draft, the sky battleships that look mighty and domineering, the cool veterans in power armor, and the camaraderie that transcends life and death, it is easy to make the gates of every recruitment office in the kingdom crowded with hot-blooded young people.
If the people's emotions are suppressed and they need to release their violent emotions, then a revenge film full of personal heroism will inevitably be sought after by everyone, the revenge experience of the Count of Monte Cristo, coupled with a large number of bloody and violent scenes, can quickly relieve the pressure of the people's suppressed emotions, and then follow the release of several feature films full of warmth, and soon the people's mental state will quickly become optimistic.
Human beings are such creatures, when they come into contact with things, they will inevitably be unconsciously affected by things, and with this subtlety, there are many seemingly impossible things that can be achieved by very simple and cheap means.
Controlling the minds of the viewers through spiritual consumables is an extremely important part of Zhao Yannian's unification plan, and this control will be widely used until humans defeat demons and angels.
Mind control can not only ensure that the kingdom will not be too chaotic in the earth-shaking reform of Zhao Yannian, but after the reform is completed, these control methods are the best way to bring humanity together.
If human beings want to exert the greatest strength in future wars, they must have a unified will, when the human race as a whole is threatened, the life and death of individuals must be considered in the interests of the whole, dictatorship is the most efficient way to rule in wartime, and the fanatical cult of personality can minimize the fear of death war, as long as Zhao Yannian arouses the people's fanatical worship of the king before the war begins, so that the structure of human society can be maintained in a relatively stable state during the war, In this kind of war, which is related to the survival of the entire human race, the people do not need to think and distinguish between right and wrong.
In order to achieve this goal, in a neighborhood in the new city that Zhao Yannian jokingly called Hollywood, a large number of ordinary people who were originally engaged in bards, dancers, musicians, etc. were summoned here, and at least ten or more film and television products were produced from Hollywood every month to deal with various situations.
At the moment, a war film is being shot in a huge studio, and the actors are preparing the images they need for post-compositing for scenes that are difficult to shoot on location.
"Still no, you have to remember that you are a great king, you just faced your millions of troops, so show your royal bearing, if you don't have a royal bearing, you can't highlight your presence in that huge scene!"
Zhao Yannian is teaching an actor who looks very similar to Edward how to play a king vividly, in order to make this actor can truly show the momentum of the king, he even took out a video of Edward himself inspecting the army for the actor to imitate.
Just when Zhao Yannian was constantly explaining to this guy who seemed to be a little submissive how he should show the spirit of a king, a noble old man with a gray beard and hair walked in angrily.
"Lord Earl, I can't do this job anymore!"
The old man slapped the large stack of sheet music and lyrics in his hand on the table and said angrily.
However, the old man did not leave the studio after finishing speaking, but stood there waiting for Zhao Yannian's reply, judging from his actions, the old man seemed to be just venting his grievances rather than really planning to leave.
"Sir Laurent, what has happened?"
Zhao Yannian handed the philosopher's stone in his hand to the actor who played the king, and then sent him aside to practice by himself, and then picked up the sheet music and looked at it and asked the old man.
"Lord Earl, you are also a person who loves music, why don't you know that music needs free thought and inspiration, don't you think that this way of mass creation is an insult to sacred art!?"
This old man named Laurent is a famous musician in the royal capital, and after Hollywood started, Zhao Yannian invited this old man from the royal capital in order to produce music that conforms to the world's trend and aesthetics.
"Every film has its own theme, and we have to create music for these films that fits their theme."
Of course, Zhao Yannian knew what Sir Laurent meant, but he didn't intend to explain anything to the old sir in public.
"But why do all the scripts scheduled for next year require the same type of music, and won't we produce other types of movies next year?"
Sir Laurent was furious when he heard Zhao Yannian's explanation and did not say anything, although music creation was a pleasure for him, but the same impassioned music was asked to compose hundreds of songs at a time, which obviously could not be accepted by the old man.
"You wonder why?
Please follow me.
Zhao Yannian looked at the old knight's angry expression that seemed to be ready to leave at any time, thought for a while, then dropped a sentence and turned around and walked out.
Sir Laurent, who hoped to get an answer, naturally couldn't let go of this opportunity after hearing Zhao Yannian's words, so the old musician followed Zhao Yannian to the biological research institute under the executioner in the new city in the magic car.
After passing through many inspections, Zhao Yannian led the old man to a hall where a crystal stone was stored.
Under Zhao Yannian's control, some terrifying images that were somewhat blurry and distorted were played from the crystal stone.
In a dark world, a huge pool of blood is tumbling up and down, from time to time there are some half-fish, half-human type little devils crawling out of the pool of blood, when these little devils with fish tails come to the ground, as if time flies for hundreds of millions of years, the little devils quickly complete the evolution to humanoids, and then these little guys whose brains are full of violence factors begin to make simple weapons, and continue to hunt their companions on the dark field.
As can be seen from the picture, there are little devils in this field who don't know whether they are tens of millions or hundreds of millions, and when there are little devils who devour their companions to a certain number, these little devils will once again evolve into more powerful and evil monsters.
Sir Laurent's head was confused by these bloody and violent images, and although he had heard of creatures such as hellish demons before, these unattainable things did not tell him much useful information for a musician who had devoted most of his life to making art.
Why Zhao Yannian brought him here to watch these things made the old musician completely confused, and when the film ended, the old man turned his inquiring eyes to Zhao Yannian.
"This is the scene of the third layer of demons, in the next two or three years, there will be such a dark plain in our world, in order to be able to keep our people from losing their fighting spirit in the chaos created by demons, we need to create more songs that can stir people's hearts, only let the people believe that His Majesty the Great King can lead us to war demons, and we can have the possibility of victory in future wars.
And now it's up to you whether or not it can be achieved, Sir Laurent.
Zhao Yannian turned to Sir Laurent and said solemnly.
