Beyond agitation and division
“It’s bad. The producer is not of good quality.”
A decent human should have deleted scenes that caused such riots.
However, the show’s producers seem to have decided to instigate a riot.
“You are a smart man. I put in the most controversial scene at this point. The ratings will double.”
“I will. There are other people who swear.”
If the controversy gets too serious, it’s enough to make the person speaking the scapegoat.
The show’s crew will admit that it was nothing but the fault of letting the contestants quarrel.
Of course, there is nothing wrong with being a woman who makes such radical remarks. You’ll get criticized, but thanks to you, you’ll be able to raise your awareness a lot.
Any ambitious person knows all too well that getting a name out to people is the most important thing, whether it’s on TV or in a movie.
Neither Eugene nor Monica paid much attention to the radical criticism of Eugene in the middle of the show.
It’s true that Eugene has a huge influence in America and Hollywood, but that doesn’t mean it’s a sanctuary that no one will ever touch.
In fact, there is no such thing as a sanctuary in America.
Not to mention influential people like Eugene, even the incumbent president is an American broadcaster who is not afraid to insult and use it as a material for humor.
There are two things Americans love the most. Freedom of the press and guns.
Here, you are free to swear at anyone or any object at will.
It is a country where corporate representatives are outspoken against Trump’s policies and say they are brainless or lousy con artists.
In Korea, if a businessperson said such a thing about a politician, the existence of the company would be at stake right now, but in the United States, it is only a natural expression of intention.
It does not matter if the criticism or insult is not based on facts beyond the level of criticism or accusation.
Rather, those who bring it back to court are likely to be criticized as an obstacle to freedom.
America is a libertarian country. Anyone has the right to blame anyone else.
It is impossible for a president to destroy a company just because he criticizes him.
This is probably the biggest reason why Eugene, who returned to the past, realized that he could earn more money than anyone else based on his future knowledge and decided to set up his base of activity in the United States.
To be successful in America, you need to get used to baseless accusations.
Instead, he himself can say whatever he wants, and he can criticize anyone.
“Listen well. The cause of Corona is China, a country that has absolutely nothing to do with Korea. It’s like the US and Mexico are completely separate countries. Of course, your tiny head won’t tell you apart.”
“What?”
“And there are countless rich people making money on Wall Street. But only one of them is spending tens of billions of dollars to help us. Can’t you even count how many tens of billions of dollars are? Even if it’s over $10, it doesn’t count, right?”
Amy was never a good girl. Of course, there is also the role of the screenplay, but looking at the emotions expressed in the words that come out of her mouth, I think that she can certainly crush people like that on her own.
“10 billion is a lot of money that needs to be 112 billion. ah! You don’t even know how big a billion is? There are only over 300 million Americans.”
The face of a woman who was weak in numbers saying she was majoring in art at the University of California at Amy’s remarks came out without a break.
“No one in the world has ever given tens of billions of dollars to the hungry without any conditions. At least 30% of Americans say that thanks to him, hunger was avoided!”
“Wow! It seems that the producers have decided.”
“Is that so?”
“Well… … Maybe Amy herself is sincere.”
“You look like that.”
Eugene and Monica watched the show with great interest.
For a while, the two women roared and led the show’s climax, so viewers watching the show can remember how much money Eugene is spending for Americans suffering from Corona, even if they don’t memorize it.
In this round, Amy’s team lost the game, and the woman who argued against Amy was eliminated by an overwhelming vote of the team members’ votes.
However, it would not be a loss to the woman who was eliminated.
There was a lot of her volume to give the feeling of causality, and that alone would be helpful in many ways.
“I have to pay attention. I didn’t know you could courteously so blatantly.”
“I know. Looks like you’re going to leave Amy alone until the end of the show.”
However, there was something else that Eugene was concerned about. That was Amy Goodwin’s attitude.
She was far more emotional than ever when she spoke in her defense of Eugene.
Of course, if you look at the whole scenario, you can think of her actions as acting, but considering that the scenario of a reality show is not made entirely without the disposition of the character in charge, I felt that her attitude was also close to the sincerity.
Moreover, Monica reported that she was by no means a good actress.
It seems that Eugene influenced her much more than she thought.
In her past life, Amy Forrest succeeded her husband, the spirit of the South, as the incarnation of the far right and plunged America into chaos.
But somehow, I had a foreboding that this time, instead of that fate, I would be walking on a completely different path.
“It would be better not to send Amy any more bouquets or anything else for the time being.”
Monica must have felt something dangerous too.
“okay. That would be better.”
“Even now, I still send out handwritten letters about once a week. that… … Would it be better to reply?”
“Appropriately.”
“I see. Don’t cross the line.”
I thought maybe she might get into politics again.
And that path would suit her very well. However, this time it won’t be as tragic as Eugene saw it last time.
Eugene remembers the shock her death brought to America.
Her supporters, who vehemently oppose the action on climate change, have since become much more aggressive.
Whites, who were opposed to support measures for people of color, also showed a more discriminatory attitude than before.
Contrary to the fact that Lincoln’s death ended up sealing the country’s divisions, her death had completely torn apart an otherwise precarious American society.
Then this time… … .
‘If you do well, it will be a useful hand.’
As the TV show progressed, Eugene’s heart began to harden.
It was enough to feel through the screen that the emotions she felt for her were close to a certain level beyond just favor or respect.
If Eugene could use her political skills, it would be helpful in many ways.
Eugene well remembers how excellent her agitation ability is.
More than a decade after her death, her supporters paid tribute to her and continued to act radically to realize her ideals.
I’m not afraid of the division she will cause.
It is impossible for all citizens of any country to be of one mind.
Usually two, or three or four, sometimes innumerable branches and criticizing each other is rather natural in a proper society.
Rather, Eugene thought that a society without any divisions was far more terrifying and wrong.
An internally divided society at least does not allow excessive external violence.
It may be too harsh to hold Amy Forrester responsible for all the social divisions Eugene has suffered in America.
The United States must already be viewed as inherently and effectively divided, and Donald Trump and Amy Forrester would be just one manifestation of such a division.
So Amy Goodwin took a part in Eugene’s idea.
“yes? What is this number?”
Just then, Monica abruptly rises from her seat, grabs one of several cell phones she manages, and looks at her number.
“yes. This is Eugene’s phone call.”
Eugene uses several phone numbers, but most of them are managed by Monica, not Eugene herself.
The only people who answer Eugene’s direct phone call are still her family and a few close aides.
And the call Monica is receiving now is a direct number given only to Eugene’s important customers.
There are only a few people in the world who can use this number, and they are all people with the power to shape the fate of at least one country.
“yes. Is that so? Where are you? Okay. I will take action immediately.”
Monica ended the not-so-long call and hung up.
“Yes, sir. My son in LA has a problem and needs help.”
It is difficult to refuse a request from a person who is the secretary of a long and frightening institution called the ‘Discipline Inspection Committee of the Central Military Commission’.
Moreover, he is a favorite of the current Chinese leader, and even more so if he is likely to become the next leader.
“son? Yes Clerk Did I mention that your son is attending Stanford? What’s going on?”
Of course, for a person that is that important, greetings and family relationships are in their minds.
In fact, only for Eugene now, it is okay to leave such a thing to someone else, but it may be because he has already lived like that for decades, so he keeps it in his head and never forgets it.
“I didn’t say exactly, but it sounds like a drug problem.”
“Hmm. Then I’ll have to contact John Brennan too.”
I roughly guessed. China is a country with far more drug addicts than Korea. Perhaps because of the large size of the country.
It is not uncommon for a child of a powerful person who came to the United States to study drugs and get involved in drugs.
But the question is, why are you asking such an important question not from your own agents, but from a potentially dangerous outsider?
“I think it should be resolved the fastest and most secretly.”
While Eugene is lost in thought for a moment, Monica calls John Brennan.
John Brennan not only has connections with intelligence agencies around the world, but also has a very wide human capital in Korea. This kind of problem can be solved without too much trouble.
“I will take action immediately. They sent someone right away, and you can be hospitalized anonymously.”
And John Brennan seems to know a lot of ways to get things done without telling anyone.
It took less than an hour for Monica to answer the phone and report that the matter had been resolved.
