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

"What? Human relations and social etiquette. Being an official also requires one to be a good person. I thought only Yan Country had this practice, but I didn't expect it to be the same all over the world."

On the other side, at this moment, Nian is dressed as a director as usual. As a technical director, she is now trying to fully supervise the filming of "Yes, Prime Minister". Because the filming of "Yes, Prime Minister" is not difficult, Chen Qi handed this matter to Nian so that he can worry less.

However, at the beginning, when Nian Yi heard that she could actually supervise the filming of the famous "Yes, Prime Minister", she excitedly took the job immediately. However, as the filming went on, she became immersed in the plot of "Yes, Prime Minister".

"There has never been a system in any country that does not require human feelings. As long as people are in such an environment, this kind of result is bound to happen."

This time, even Xi, who had been staying in the painting, came out of the painting for the first time when she heard about the filming of the second season of her favorite show, Yes, Prime Minister. She was seen holding a cup of fine green tea in one hand and occasionally eating a pastry in the painting with the other hand, while she commented calmly:

“Rather, it is foolish to blindly believe that the system of any country will be completely mechanized. It is people who create the environment, not the environment that affects people.”

"It's a pity that there are always people who blindly believe in a system they have never personally experienced or even witnessed, and sketch out an 'ideal country' of their own imagination, not knowing that they are just jumping into an abyss that is even more bottomless."

One of the reasons why Xi likes "Yes, Prime Minister" very much is that there are many profound meanings in it that are worth Xi's deep thinking. To be honest, she always feels that it is not enough to watch this series just once. Every time she re-watches "Yes, Prime Minister", she will have new insights and understandings.

Xi continued to stare at the big screen, and at this moment, Manfred and the Blood Demon Lord had already left the office, and Manfred immediately came to the Blood Demon Lord and asked:

"What I just heard is horrible. I was blind. I had no idea there was a conspiracy in the Cabinet against the Prime Minister!"

"——Really? How interesting." The Blood Demon Lord seemed to have forgotten that he was the one who secretly hinted to Tracys that the Minister of Employment was plotting against him as soon as he finished speaking. He looked surprised.

Manfred was speechless for a moment, but he quickly continued to ask: "But you said yes."

"No, Bernard, I didn't say anything." When the Blood Demon Lord saw that Manfred seemed to want to ask more questions, he quickly gave him a look, suggesting that it was enough for him to understand.

"You mean... Oh." Manfred reacted belatedly, but he still couldn't suppress his curiosity and asked, "Do you know if there is a conspiracy?"

"Do not."

"Don't know or it doesn't exist?" Manfred asked again.

"Yes." Lord Blood Demon continued to answer irrelevant questions, so Manfred had to open up and ask, "Sir Humphrey, what did the Minister of Employment do?"

“Isn’t his policy a good one?”

"To whom?" Seeing that Manfred didn't seem to understand, the Blood Demon Lord continued to guide him and asked him. Manfred said as a matter of course, "To the country."

"——This is not the point." The Blood Demon Lord briefly mentioned the most important aspect and turned to Manfred and asked, "Bernard, where do you plan to go after you leave?"

"Oh, I..." When Manfred mentioned resignation, he subconsciously thought of "retirement", and the smile on his face spread a little, but then he immediately realized something, and the smile suddenly turned serious. He looked at the Blood Demon Lord and said in a much more cautious tone:

"I have no idea……"

Manfred's cautious look also caused a burst of laughter from all the Victorian officials. Obviously, they also thought that this was a threat from the Blood Demon Lord, and they wanted to "exile" Manfred if he continued to ask questions.

However, the Blood Demon Lord continued the conversation and asked, "How about being the Deputy Secretary-General, in charge of national defense procurement?"

"Oh my God..." Manfred's face immediately cleared up after hearing this. Even many Victoria officials' eyes lit up - this was a good job after retirement!

However, the next moment, the Blood Demon Lord's words suddenly brought Manfred and everyone to the bottom of the valley. He said lightly:

"Is the area in Kleibrassong, Warehouse City or Rosiema?"

"...Are these place names?" Manfred was a little confused. As a Victoria official, he had never heard of these place names. And this basically conveyed one message - these areas were extremely remote places in Victoria.

"Rosie hair? What do you think it is?" the Blood Demon Lord continued to ask.

"——Dog food brand." Manfred answered without hesitation, and the Blood Demon Lord was speechless for a moment, then immediately said in a simple and easy-to-understand way:

"That means that if the Minister of Employment succeeds, you will have to eat Rosie's hair for three years."

“So how can it be good for the country?”

"Absolutely impossible!"

At this moment, Manfred also realized the seriousness of the matter. Even if the employment minister's plan was really beneficial to Victoria, it involved the interests of the civil servants themselves, so even if it was beneficial to the country, it would never be successfully implemented.

This time, Manfred, the Prime Minister's personal secretary, had to stand with the Cabinet Secretary, the Blood Demon Lord.

Now, the two people closest to the Prime Minister have united their front, and everyone watching knows that the employment minister will obviously not end well, and this policy that seems to benefit the country and the people will definitely not be implemented.

"This can be considered as the dust settling."

"Yeah, this employment minister is in trouble."

Several Victoria officials whispered to each other that they had already gained a lot from this trip and it was well worth it.

However, it seems that he felt that the experience he had imparted was not enough. Manfred on the screen continued to ask: "But why did you suggest asking the organization secretary to confirm the non-existent conspiracy?"

"Because he can only beat around the bush, the secretary of the organization cannot say there is no conspiracy." However, the Blood Demon Lord calmly handed over a large number of young civil servants and politicians a "test point" that might save their lives in the future, and said lightly:

"Just in case it really happens. He has to find a way out for himself."

"Bernard, go in and report the content of the conversation to me later." The Blood Demon Lord then warned him. However, when Manfred said that these might be confidential and he could not disclose them, the Blood Demon Lord gave a rare and tough answer:

"I need to know everything! Otherwise how can I tell if I need to know it or not!"

"call……"

At this moment, all the words spoken by the Blood Demon Lord were recorded after being laughed at by the civil servants and politicians who were watching. Many of them breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the full booklets they had written with satisfaction.

These are all valuable knowledge! How can you not learn this knowledge that may save your life in the future officialdom?

However, the actions of many Victoria officials are enough to reassure Chen Qi at this moment that his reputation value in the second season of "Yes, Prime Minister" will definitely not be low.

Perhaps it is not just Victoria officials who can learn from the content of this first episode. All politicians from top to bottom in many countries can learn from it. These are all valuable tips that can help you avoid many detours!

Chapter 125: Vina wants to learn the art of being an emperor from Chen Qi?

On Chen Qi's side, the filming in Londinium went extremely smoothly, but the unblocking of "Yes, Prime Minister" had already started a long time ago, and had already caused some annoyance to several surrounding countries to a certain extent.

There is no way. The influence of "Yes, Prime Minister" at the beginning was too great. It was not just in Victoria and Ursus. In fact, in the circle around Victoria, except for Kjerag, which had no Internet at the time, and Iberia, which no longer paid attention to such things, other countries have always had a severe attitude towards "Yes, Prime Minister".

Although it has not reached the level of Ursus, where it is directly listed as a banned drama and anyone caught watching it will be arrested, with serious cases even being sent to a mine to fend for themselves, countries like Leitania and Casimir still have restrictions on "Yes, Prime Minister".

For example, a large number of deletions were made, even to the point where one had to guess what was happening when watching the show, or if someone was found to have secretly kept a videotape of the original show, it would be confiscated directly and the person would be detained.

After all, the satire in "Yes, Prime Minister" was a bit too strong, and the scope of the satire was too wide... It might have been okay in the past, but when the war had just ended and all countries were still scratching their heads over internal problems, Victoria lifted the ban on "Yes, Prime Minister", and they felt uncomfortable.

Especially now that Victoria has specifically announced the news, they have invited Chen Qi to shoot the second season of "Yes, Prime Minister". Victoria's deliberate high-profile announcement is intended to let people in other countries hear it as much as possible and spread it.

Moreover, Victoria now has the Sarkaz mercenaries led by Tracy to help spread the information. All it takes is a team of Sarkaz mercenaries to go to the key mobile cities in several countries and upload the relevant data. It will immediately spread from one to ten, and from ten to a hundred, and there will be no time to stop it.

There are even methods of competing wits and courage with the cybersecurity departments of various countries, hacking into the backend, tampering with programs, and even Sarkaz mercenaries have resorted to infiltrating and bribing internal personnel to cause sabotage.

Anyway, to put it bluntly, there is only one goal - to spread "Yes, Prime Minister" as widely as possible at all costs, and to make the impact as great as possible.

Cybersecurity departments in various countries are extremely busy, and it has only been two weeks...

On this day, just as the staff of the cybersecurity departments of various countries, after experiencing two weeks of hell, came to work with their breaths hanging on, a piece of blockbuster news came one after another.

"Oh no! Season 2 of Yes, Prime Minister! They're really filming a second season!"

"It's already spread everywhere! The Victorian authorities have put this program on their central channel. It's impossible to stop it now! It's impossible to ban it!"

When the cybersecurity departments of various countries received this news one after another, it was said that many staff members convulsed and fell to the ground under such heavy pressure. Now we can only hope that this news will not cause them to die suddenly.

And now, far away in the palace of Yan State, there are things happening about the second season of "Yes, Prime Minister". Because Chen Qi is hanging out with Nian and Xi, any big news will be reported to the palace as soon as possible. Now the Emperor of Yan State has also received this information.

However, what a coincidence is that Nian Yuxi's elder brother Chongyue is also in the palace.

The reason why Chongyue came was to personally deliver the videotape of "Brave Heart" to the Emperor of Yan State, in order to help the Emperor clear the suspicion that his two sisters and Director Chen Qi were getting together and intending to rebel.

Then, Chongyue came to the Imperial City from Yumen with full confidence, reporting all the way. As soon as he met the emperor, people from Simuitai came in a hurry and reported that his two younger sisters were already filming the second season of "Yes, Prime Minister" in Victoria with director Chen Qi.

This is a bit embarrassing... Zhongyue wanted to use "Brave Heart" to express that his two younger sisters didn't have the courage and the mind to do so, but his two younger sisters ended up making a heavyweight TV series directly.

"——General Zhongyue, do you have anything else to say to me?"

“…Although it is a work of discussion in the court, Your Majesty must also know its value and that the country it satirizes has nothing to do with Da Yan.”

Although Zhongyue was embarrassed, he would never say that his two sisters wanted to rebel, so he had to change his perspective and said, "I heard that Your Majesty also attaches great importance to the profound meaning of this play. Since it is beneficial to our Great Yan, why should you be suspicious?"

Although Chongyue was also one of the "Sui" under surveillance, his relationship with Yan State and his importance were obviously different. It could be said that everyone in Yan State was very confident in Chongyue, especially the emperor and the Grand Tutor who knew the inside story of Chongyue.

The emperor was not worried about Nian and Xi, but Chen Qi. Chongyue and the Grand Tutor actually had the same goal. Although it was to eliminate the suspicion of rebellion by Xi and Nian, it was actually to convince the suspicious emperor and let Chen Qi's talents shine. Maybe he would be useful to Da Yan in the future.

"Your Majesty, General Zhongyue is right." The Grand Tutor also advised: "The broadcast of "Yes, Prime Minister" will have little impact on our Great Yan, but it will bring many benefits to our Great Yan. It can be used as a bronze mirror to reflect the many flaws of our Great Yan."

"Your Majesty is so conflicted, isn't it because you value Chen Qi's talent but are afraid that he cannot be used by Dayan?"

"And now Chen Qi still dares to film "Yes, Prime Minister" in Victoria, he must have received Victoria's support. Since even other countries are not afraid of speech, why should we in Da Yan be afraid of it?"

"Hmm... that makes sense." Upon hearing this, the Emperor of Yan nodded slightly, and Chongyue and Taifu also breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

Many people know that the current Emperor of Yan State is somewhat jealous, but few people know that this Emperor is also a person who is not very convinced - probably because he was always suppressed by his elder brother in his childhood. He has a stubborn character and never wants to admit defeat. When he hears that someone is better than himself, he tends to be competitive.

Although he was betrayed by his brother by accident, his personality became much more restrained after he became emperor, but his personality would still be revealed to some extent in normal times.

"But... the first episode talks about the internal fighting between the parties, which is a bit too sharp... This kid is really brave to shoot a drama."

This is true...Facing the emperor's mumbling, this time, Taifu and Chongyue also agreed with his idea in their hearts - they were actually a little scared of this guy Chen Qi, he was really a little too bold.

……

"Dr. Kelsey, I want to apply to go to Londinium. I want to see Director Chen Qi and watch the filming of "Yes, Prime Minister" in person."

But in Rhodes Island, the scene is completely different now. Kal'tsit and Amiya who returned from Kouchi County were still watching the first episode of "Yes, Prime Minister" when Vina broke in, contrary to her usual behavior, and said this to Kal'tsit.

"...Operator Vina, you should know that if you rashly enter the public eye of Londinium with your identity, it will be an extremely irritating signal to the eight dukes now, right?"

Kal'tsit was also slightly stunned when he heard this, and then immediately calmly judged: "You have lost the best opportunity to get to your position. If you go to Victoria now when everything is stable, you will most likely die."

"And Director Chen Qi will surely not support you. He has just established a friendly relationship with Victoria. Even Rhodes Island will not interfere with your actions."

"...No, I just want to go to Londinium." However, when Vina heard this, she naturally knew that if she went there as the crown princess, it would inevitably cause an uproar. But this time, she was not going to Londinium to seize power, but to go there in her own identity.

"Not the crown prince, but the leader of a gang. Not Aslan, but just an ordinary Filin. And I'm not alone. Operator Maenna will go with me. I will go as an operator of Rhodes Island and disguise myself so as not to disturb anyone."

"...Can you tell me the reason?" Kal'tsit couldn't help but ask lightly. She always felt that Vina's ideas were not that simple.

If Vina wanted to go to Londinium, there were obviously many opportunities, but why did she come to her after learning that Chen Qi was filming the second season of "Yes, Prime Minister" and watching the first episode?

You know, the content of the first episode is about party struggles... Kal'tsit couldn't help but connect the two things together, and vaguely guessed Vina's move this time.

I'm afraid that Vina has no intention of returning to Victoria for the time being. She also knows that although she has experienced the suffering of the people, she is still far from being a true wise ruler.

And this time, after watching the second season of "Yes, Prime Minister", she wants to go to Chen Qi's side... I'm afraid that Vina saw from the party struggle in this episode that the knowledge Chen Qi possesses will be of great help to her future return to Victoria?

"...I can let you go, but from now on, your identity will no longer be Aslan, but an ordinary Filin. Can you do that?"

Kal'tsit looked at Vina's particularly serious eyes, and after a moment of silence, she agreed with Vina's choice.

It would not be beneficial for Rhodes Island if Vina continued to stay there. It would only drag it into the dispute in Victoria. Now Victoria is obviously unshakable, and Kal'tsit is not ready to face Tracy for the time being. It is also a good choice to let Vina go out to gain experience.

"We are collaborating with Director Chen Qi on the Ore Disease Inhibitor and other areas. We need an external operator to stay by Director Chen Qi's side and keep in touch with Rhodes Island at all times."

"Then, as an operator officially registered in Rhodes Island, I hereby dispatch the operator, King of Advance, to assist Director Chen Qi's crew."

"……Thanks."

After getting Kal'tsit's permission, Vina's face flashed with joy for a moment, but she quickly suppressed her emotions and nodded.

"Well, after you finish watching this episode, you can go find Kulushiel. She will use scientific methods to hide your Aslan racial characteristics. Basically, as long as you don't take off your disguise, no one will recognize you as Aslan."

After Kal'tsit finished speaking, she turned her gaze back to the TV, while Vina and Amiya also planned to watch the second episode first.

Vina's eyes were shining. Although she was suppressing her emotions, if Chen Qi saw her gaze at this moment, he would find that it was very similar to the way Abrana stared at him at that time.

However, Vina sees things more deeply than Abrana. She knows that it is impossible for her to return to Victoria as the crown prince, so she plans to change her mind.

She will return to Victoria in the future with a new identity. She will use her own abilities and talents, relying not on bloodline but real talent, to become the true leader of Victoria in the future.

When she reaches the pinnacle of power and has the opportunity to fully display her talents, her status will no longer be a hindrance or a disadvantage that will lead to her death. All identities can only be maximized if they are based on talents!

At first, Vina couldn't find someone who could teach her, but now... Vina felt that she seemed to have found it.

Chapter 126: Learn from Chen Qi how to deal with the media

The broadcast of the second season of "Yes, Prime Minister" will inevitably be watched by all countries in Victoria and even Terra, because the "program effect" of the first season of this drama was too shocking, which directly raised the drama to a height that did not belong to it.

What's more, this time, Victoria even broadcast the second season of "Yes, Prime Minister" on the official central channel and promoted the show that once divided their country. And this is a show that ordinary people "love to watch" in such a period, so the popularity is naturally not low.

However, compared to the serious attitude of senior officials in other countries towards the party struggle part of "Yes, Prime Minister", most people just laughed it off. Some people were even confused and did not enjoy watching it very much.

Fortunately, the second episode that followed can satisfy their desire to laugh. The content of this episode mainly discusses the "media" that every country needs to pay attention to.

"The media... is also a difficult existence to deal with." When mentioning the media, Vina muttered to herself with shining eyes this time:

"Especially the media in Victoria. They are not easy to deal with. Will Director Chen Qi talk about how to deal with the media in this episode?"

"Just keep watching and you'll find out." Even Kal'tsit knows how annoying Victoria's media is, but she has basically said goodbye to public appearances now, so she doesn't need to think about this issue.

However... Amiya needs to learn how to deal with the media. Kal'tsit looked at Amiya's eyes and continued to watch with her without saying a word.
