I am a director in Ark. If I am not banned, I will be considered successful.

“That is, no matter how important a ministry is, such as the Ministry of Finance or the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, as long as they have enough power, there is no need to worry about whether they understand the relevant knowledge.”

"For a king, the people he wants to use must first be obedient before they can discuss whether they are useful or not - is this considered enlightenment, Lord Blood Demon?"

"...Yes, General."

Facing Tracy's counterattack, the smile on the Blood Demon Lord's face disappeared for a moment, but soon returned to normal, and then he slowly chose to leave.

"...Recently, the people in the Royal Court have also been studying 'Yes, Prime Minister', General." Facing the departing Blood Demon Lord, Manfred stared at the direction he left and said to Tresis:

"They are uneasy about the TV series you sent to the royal court. They feel that you are deliberately attacking them, so there are a lot of criticisms, and they think the problems in it are just the superficial aspects of a country's governance."

"--Whether it is fur or not, they will know later."

Tracy twitched his lips. He did not have much good feelings towards the Royal Court. If it were not for the revival of Kazdel, which required the support of the clans represented by these guys, he would have long wanted to stop being restricted by the Royal Court.

But... I have to admit that although the third and fourth episodes are funny, for Tracys, there are many problems in them that Kazdel does not need to consider for the time being.

He must have some news that can help Kazdel, whether it is beneficial to Kazdel today or about Victoria's loopholes.

"...I'm going to visit Director Chen Qi in person. I think his smart brain will give me the answer I want."

Tracy made a decision immediately. He now felt the importance of Chen Qi more and more. Now, this idea made Tracy regret more and more that he had signed a "blood contract" with Chen Qi.

Because now, Tracy no longer wants to let Chen Qi go.

Chapter 41: Chen Qi's contact with Theresa?

By the time Tracys went out, it was almost evening. He did not let anyone follow him, but he knew that the Pardoner and his guards would definitely follow him secretly.

Tracys came to the Londinium Hotel slowly by himself. He let Chen Qi and his party stay here as VIP guests, on the one hand for entertainment, and on the other hand... it was also for the convenience of surveillance.

"Recently, Director Chen Qi has been wandering around Londinium for a fixed period of time, just like in the past. Sometimes he is accompanied by Tallulah and Alina, and sometimes by Patriot and Froststar."

When Tracys first arrived at the Grand Hotel, the Pardon Master, who was standing by like a ghost, said to Tracys, "He seems to be planning to walk through the entire Londinium, but he never paid attention to the deployment of defenses and the location of the city defense artillery."

"Artists also need to relax and unwind occasionally." After hearing the news, Tracy didn't care too much, because he knew from the first time he met Chen Qi that Chen Qi had the physique of an ordinary person, and was even thinner than most people.

But what Tracy valued was not Chen Qi's physique, but his brain. If Tracy had some thoughts about Patriot, Tallulah, or the talents of the crew at the beginning, then now he can say that he doesn't need them at all.

The last pure-blooded Wendigo, who was unwilling to accept the "ritual" to become stronger, is no longer one of us after all.

As for the adopted daughter of the Duke of Ursus, it was meaningless to Tracys. He didn't want to have anything to do with Ursus. Tallulah's power was also present in his legion, so he didn't care.

Chen Qi's wisdom and his script are what can change the situation of the war and even the entire world!

Now, the influence of "Yes, Prime Minister" has gradually been revealed. In just two weeks, with a total of four episodes, the entire Victorian people have begun to have some doubts and emotions about the now increasingly declining Victorian government.

After all, after encountering the "national defense policy is to make Victorians believe that they are protected" and the subsequent "Originium Tool Ban Incident", the superiors in Victoria placed themselves above the people and regarded human life as worthless, which was vividly demonstrated.

Especially in Londinium, with the broadcast of "Yes, Prime Minister", many residents who were exposed to politics for the first time laughed heartily in the first few times, but then gradually tasted the cruel politics hidden behind the jokes.

This caused many residents of Londinium, who were already dissatisfied because Londinium was occupied by the Sarkaz garrison and all city defenses were taken over, to lose confidence in the Victorian government. In order to "test" the effect, Tresis issued a "new working hours system" for the first time to regulate the working hours of Londinium workers.

According to Chen Qi's understanding, it is a very standard 996.

However, compared to the previous policy of Tracys, who did not treat the residents of Londinium as human beings in order to quickly build the Broken Tower and the air fleet in Londinium, Tracys' "test" now unexpectedly won the hearts of the people.

Now, the residents of Londinium have gradually changed from hating Tresis and the Sarkaz Legion to thinking that "it doesn't seem that bad" within two weeks.

What Chen Qi didn't know was that because of this incident, in the sewer, the leader of the self-rescue army, Aledae, was so angry that she was at a loss what to do. Faced with the increasingly obedient residents of Londinium and the increasingly difficult situation, Aledae was really overwhelmed. For a moment, she even forgot her identity as the daughter of the Duke and started spouting all kinds of Victorian trash. It was a pity that Chen Qi didn't know about it.

"As expected, the riots and absenteeism in Londinium were less than expected, and other mobile cities in Victoria have been sending messengers to ask us to instruct them to ban the broadcast of Yes, Prime Minister."

"Sure enough, the Victorian government is afraid. They are afraid of enlightened citizens, afraid that their tricks will be exposed and they will no longer be able to deceive citizens."

“This shows that we did the right thing, and what Director Chen Qi wrote was also correct.”

Tracys was worthy of being the regent of Kazdel. Through Londinium, many of his ideas on political implementation were verified.

However, Chen Qi didn't care about these things. Rather, no matter what the reason, as long as the residents of Londinium could live a little better during the time when Theresis controlled them, Chen Qi didn't care why.

"…Your Highness, there is something I must remind you of."

However, when the pardoner saw that Tracy didn't care, he said something that made Tracy stunned for a moment:

"Director Chen Qi met Her Highness Theresa while traveling around the city of Londinium."

"..." However, the words of the Absolver made Tracy pause for a moment. After a moment, Tracy stopped and asked:

"Did they talk about anything?"

"We talked a lot. Director Chen Qi seemed very interested in Her Highness Theresa and said he wanted to tailor a movie for Her Highness Theresa." The Pardoner answered honestly:

"But Her Highness Theresa didn't respond much. You know, she is just a shell now. She has no personality of her own. She is only the embodiment of the will of the Sarkaz."

"So her response to Director Chen Qi was very lacking in agility, but I think this matter needs to be reported to you."

"--It's okay, let them contact each other." Theresias couldn't help feeling a little melancholy when he mentioned his cousin. To him, Theresia, who was walking on the street now, had no soul of her own. She was just a corpse with an empty shell, walking in a half-dead way, just because he needed her appeal.

Even with just a "doll" like this, the effect that Theresa brought was something that he had been unable to achieve after years of hard work.

Tresis worked diligently to support Kazdel's revival, but in the end, only half of the Sarkaz and less than 30% of the kings of the royal court supported him. Now that "Theresia" stood on his side, almost 90% of the Sarkaz mercenaries were included in his command, and even half of the people in the royal court expressed their support for him.

But even so, Tracy was not jealous of his sister. He knew that he was not as good as his sister in some aspects.

"...If she were still alive, and she stood with me, and Chen Qi, perhaps the revival of the Sarkaz would not have taken the path it is on now."

"Nothing, it's just an empty shell. Let them touch it."

Theresis was obviously very relieved about Theresa, who was now soulless, or perhaps his conscience was moved, and he had no objection to Chen Qi's contact with Theresa.

After all, Theresa has no soul now. Even an existence like Wang Ting cannot properly resurrect Theresa. For Chen Qi, an ordinary person, it is even more impossible, right?

……

"Okay, Your Highness, this is the content of the fifth and sixth episodes you requested."

Some time later, in Chen Qi's room, facing Tracy's sudden visit, Chen Qi was not surprised - because during this period, he and Tracy had met quite a few times, and most of the time, Tracy came to urge him to submit his manuscripts, or to discuss politics with him.

Regarding the former topic, Chen Qi’s answer is always “I’m writing it, I’m writing it”, and regarding the latter… Chen Qi would not answer it if he could. He didn’t want to personally teach a big devil of public opinion warfare.

Therefore, Chen Qi has been trying to reduce his contact with Tracy as much as possible. Now he handed the content of the next two episodes to Tracy and continued:

"According to your request, the content of these two episodes is quite explosive, involving civil servants' salary increase, as well as matters concerning coups and diplomacy."

"That's great." When Tracy heard that this was some very important news, his mind became much more active and he took the script immediately.

"There is definitely some exciting inside information that you are looking for. I believe the information here is worth holding a meeting."

"I have absolute confidence in you, Director Chen Qi." This time, Tracys didn't even bother to look at it, but instead asked a question:

"It's just that I'm surprised that you're not opposed to cooperating with us. In the past, the partners we met would stay away from us once they heard about us 'Demons'."

Of course, how bad the Sarkaz's reputation is is just a historical issue... Chen Qi shook his head at the moment. What's more, he didn't really want to cooperate with Tracys. It's just that he gave too much.

In addition, if Chen Qi really refused at that time, it would inevitably cause bloodshed. However, Chen Qi would not answer like this, but changed his words and said:

"Your Highness, I have no prejudice against the Sarkaz. To me, race never represents whether a person is good or bad, and a despicable person has nothing to do with race."

"It would be nice if everyone in this world thought the same as you do, Director Chen Qi."

And Theresis also smiled when he heard this. For a moment, Chen Qi's words reminded him of Theresa. The two had very similarities.

"...So, did you and your cousin have a good conversation?"

Tresis turned to Chen Qi, met Chen Qi's nervous eyes, and then smiled softly: "Don't get me wrong, I won't stop you from contacting your sister."

"...Perhaps in the future, I will invite you to shoot a movie specifically for my sister."

After saying that, Tracy took back the script and left the room. His words were obviously reminding Chen Qi that every move in the city of Londinium was under his control.

However, after Tracys left, Chen Qi's originally somewhat nervous expression relaxed a lot after a breath of relief, and he murmured to himself:

“I was scared to death… I thought Theresa saw through me, but now it seems that I can’t have any contact with Theresa anymore.”

"But fortunately, I have done what I can do... I have to thank His Highness Tracys for giving me so many reputation points."

Chen Qi thought so in his heart, and he breathed a sigh of relief and lay back on his bed. He couldn't live even a second longer in his current life of fear. He was really being monitored everywhere.

Therefore, he had to think about how to escape from Londinium, and for this purpose he found an "ally" for himself.

This ally would definitely scare Tracys, something he would never have imagined...

At the same time, in the bedroom of Tresis in Londinium, in another room that was even more luxurious than where Tresis lived, a Sarkaz woman with long light pink hair was sleeping on the bed like a doll, staring at the ceiling with her eyes blurred.

And, for a moment, when all the surveillance from the outside world seemed to be lifted... the eyes of the originally lifeless body seemed to have regained their own brilliance for a moment...

Although it was only a moment, it was enough to prove the existence of her soul. She is no longer a soulless body...

Chapter 42: Everyone is paying attention to "Yes, Prime Minister"

A week later, Chen Qi and his crew filmed the fifth and sixth episodes of "Yes, Prime Minister" again. These two episodes were very representative in terms of quality, explosive content, and famous lines. Therefore, Chen Qi and the crew filmed the episodes with more full and stringent requirements.

Tracys, Lord Blood Demon and Manfred, who had read the script, saw their most needed value from the scripts of these two episodes, and worked harder in their performances, giving 120% of their concentration.

Therefore, the filming of these two episodes was particularly smooth, because everyone was very focused. Even after the filming was over, Tracys, who was always very calm, grabbed Chen Qi's hand and said without noticing Chen Qi's horrified look:

"Director Chen Qi, please give us the first finished product as soon as possible after you have calculated the final cost."

Tracy was happy. Now he needed "Yes, Prime Minister" to come up with enough explosive news so that he could refute the views of the kings in the royal court and say that what they did in Londinium was useless.

Tracy is indeed using "Yes, Prime Minister" to awaken those kings in the royal court whose brains and bodies have begun to decay because they have lived too long. Although Victoria's political system is criticized and satirized in this TV series, what Tracy sees is a civil service system that is truly operating smoothly towards the expected goals.

A civil service system that can still operate even if there are frequent internal struggles, a civil service system suitable for peacetime, which selects the best and chooses the elite, and promotes people based on their qualifications and abilities, rather than relying on who has stronger Originium skills or a longer lifespan to determine who holds a high position.

This is the civil service system that Kazdel will use in the future. Even though this TV series is satirizing Victoria, Tracy still feels that it cannot be completely denied.

To put it another way, if a civil service system is full of infighting, loopholes, and infested with pests, it can still function normally and ensure the stability of a country by relying on this perfect system.

Doesn’t this prove that this system is actually quite stable?

Tracy knew that even though he and Theresa had different ideas, he had to first take revenge on all the countries that had invaded Kazdel in the past in order to ensure that the Sarkaz would not be destroyed again in the future - but he also knew that after completing all this, he was destined to step down.

Theresis knew very well that he was not suitable for governing the country. He also admitted that Theresia was the most suitable person to govern everything in peacetime, which was why so many people followed her.

But... Tracys couldn't accept the Sarkaz people's humble pleas for peace. He wanted to conquer back everything he had lost. Victory was the best way to consolidate their racial status.

In the future, when he has achieved this goal, Kazdel will inevitably have to build a political system that is more suitable for governing the country. Now, the best reference case of Victoria, a veteran power, is right in front of him. How can he waste it?

They wanted to create a better, more excellent and more mature template from Victoria's political system, and the first thing Tracy had to do was to convince the kings of the royal court to support him.

And "Yes, Prime Minister" is the best proof he can give to the Royal Court, proving that Kazdel's ideas are outdated and the Royal Court will inevitably be replaced.

"If they are willing to obey, then they will naturally have a place in Kazdel in the future, but if they continue to be stubborn..."

When Tracys thought of this, he couldn't help but reveal a bit of Sarkaz's evil smile, and said lightly in his heart:

"This system only needs obedient and excellent people. As for whether they are good at something or not... I believe that as long as the position is satisfactory enough, anyone can become a competent cadre."

"At that time, they will consciously do the right thing for votes and support, so that the Sarkaz people can receive favors, and they can also gain the respect and support they want."

"This is the future path of Kazdel. No one can disobey it, and no one can dominate alone."

“I can’t. Thearesia can’t… and the kings of the royal court… can’t either.”

Tracy has already outlined Kazdel's future path in his mind. Now he is still preparing for Kazdel's battle to restore his country, but at this moment, he already knows the future path and how to go about it.

And next to Theresis, at this moment, Theresia, who was standing with lifeless eyes, was also as motivationless as a puppet.

But, for some reason, as if after hearing Theresia's inner voice, Theresia's pupils regained a little luster. Although they quickly returned to dullness, at that moment, her pupils seemed to reveal a glimmer of... joy.

……

"It's on air! Two new episodes of Yes, Prime Minister are on air!"

"Really?! Hurry up! Everyone, put down what you are doing! 'Yes, Prime Minister' is on!"

"Coming! Coming right now! Fester, stop what you're doing and go watch Yes, Prime Minister!"

On the day when "Yes, Prime Minister" was scheduled to be broadcast, almost every household in Londinium immediately turned on their televisions during this time period, and stayed in front of the TV with great interest, hoping that this time, "Yes, Prime Minister" could broadcast more explosive topics that would make them laugh.

This scene was not only happening in Londinium, but also in all the mobile cities of Victoria. Almost everyone with a TV was looking forward to today's content. For a while, the ratings of all the TV stations in Victoria's mobile cities were rising wildly during the same time period!

However, it was not just Victoria. Many people who had heard about the TV series and began to pay attention to the messages contained in it also started to pay attention to it as soon as possible.

For example, the self-rescue army in the Londinium underground passage, Rhodes Island... and other places.

"Is this abominable TV show on again? I wonder how far they plan to go to discredit Victoria this time?"

For Aledae, the leader of the self-rescue army, this is simply the most difficult period for her. Every time a new episode of "Yes, Prime Minister" is broadcast, the support of the residents of Londinium will drop a few points.

It has only been two weeks and the situation of the Self-Rescue Army is already worse than before. Alede really can't imagine whether the Self-Rescue Army can continue to hold on in Londinium if this TV series continues to be broadcast like this for a while.

And it’s really embarrassing... Just because of a TV show like this, all their efforts as a self-rescue army became impossible in just two weeks.
