    The Prime Minister¡¯s team made two preparations. On one side, they went to arrest the kidnappers, and on the other side, they hired stuntmen and special effects artists to prepare for cheating during the live broadcast at 4 p.m.  As a result, on the way to transport the stuntman, he was accidentally seen by a passerby, took a photo and posted it online, and the plan was exposed.

    The kidnapper responded by sending a finger and another video to the TV station.  In the video, the kidnappers cut off the princess's fingers.

    After the TV station released this video to the public, the originally calm society suddenly became agitated.

    Reason and civilization have been almost pushed into an invisible corner, and there is no room for discussion online.  Everyone is worried about the internet celebrity princess.  Someone online mocked the Prime Minister's partner.  Public opinion reversed. Originally only 28% thought the Prime Minister should compromise, but that instantly rose to 80%.

    Public opinion bared its fangs at this moment.

    At first, they expressed sympathy when they heard that the Prime Minister wanted to fuck a pig. Later, they expressed sympathy when they heard that the princess had her fingers cut off.  They don't care if it's contradictory or not, and they don't care.  Because they are not the ones at the center of public opinion.  They will only comment based on their own feelings.  For them, it doesn¡¯t matter what the future holds, only the emotions at that moment matter.

    Public opinion is never indifferent, nor is it rational.

    Amei looked at the screen with dull eyes, as if she had once again witnessed the changes in public opinion after the Han Jue hacker incident.

    At that time, Han Jue and Weng Nanxi teamed up to expose Li Zebin's true face. The public regarded Weng Nanxi as a goddess and Han Jue as his true character, which was a great compliment.  As a result, after the hacker released the so-called video found on Han Jue's computer, because it involved minors, everyone lost their sense and wished Han Jue would die immediately.  Some people cursed Han Jue and also mocked Zhang Yiman.  Some people gloat about others' misfortunes, while others fish in troubled waters.  What is the truth, and does anyone care?

    Amei looked at the computer screen, looked at "Black Mirror", and also looked at the screen showing "Black Mirror".  She kept asking in her mind, what is media and what is new media? Relying on the development of technology, what kind of existence do these news practitioners who have changed along with them exist, and what is the difference between them and traditional reporters in the past.

    "Black Mirror" [National Anthem] continues.

    The Prime Minister was driven into a desperate situation by public opinion. He finally placed all his hopes on catching the robbers and stopping this farce.  However, when the action team followed the clues to arrest the robber, they failed to catch the robber in the end. The only reward was a reporter who was brave enough to take secret photos without fear of death.

    The arrest operation that the Prime Minister had high hopes for also failed miserably.  Under the pressure of public opinion and the threat of the party, he finally had only compromise.

    When it was officially announced on TV that the Prime Minister would do something indecent as requested by the kidnappers, people seemed to have jointly contributed to an anticipated and happy event, and they gathered in front of the TV, waiting to watch this unprecedented event.  Officials advised people to turn off the TV, but no one turned off the TV.

    After switching between several exterior scenes, the bustling areas and busy scenic spots were all deserted.

    The whole country seemed as quiet as death.

    At four o'clock in the afternoon, the Prime Minister appeared on thousands of TV screens on time amid cheers from all over the country.

    ¡­¡­

    When he saw the prime minister in the story beginning to cry bitterly and squirming behind the pig as the kidnapper demanded, Wang Qingjun felt his heart being squeezed tightly.

    This is the power of art, the power of images, and the power of stories.

    After the Prime Minister fucked the pig, he lay next to the toilet and vomited in an extremely miserable state. However, Wang Qingjun looked at his own image on the screen and did not feel ugly at all.  Because he felt that there were other uglier things in the film.

    What shocked Wang Qingjun the most was not the scene of the Prime Minister fucking a pig, but the faces of the people who witnessed this scene.

    Han Jue did not present that very topical scene carefully like other rated movies, but slowly panned the camera over the faces of the onlookers twice.  The scene in this section is gloomy, and the sad orchestral music plays slowly, as if the whole country is mourning a national tragedy.  The camera focused on the faces of each audience member and slowly swept over them. Some people were staring at the TV enthusiastically, some turned their heads but couldn't help but focus on the TV, some people had dull eyes, and some  Some people had twinkling smiles, some couldn't bear to look directly at it, and some were dumbfounded

    Such a picture is simply chilling, and I feel extremely desolate.

    The so-called [national anthem] is actually the voice of the people??, look up at your hand.  The phone in his hand had turned off, and his face was reflected on the black screen.  Wang Qingjun saw his face.  That "prime minister" face.

    In the film, he is the prime minister who was sacrificed on TV, but what about outside the film?

    Today, when Han Jue is being coerced by public opinion and public opinion, he clearly has the ability to do something but does not do it. What is the difference between such carefulness and those watching the excitement in the film?

    Wang Qingjun held his mobile phone as if facing a black mirror, looking at himself carefully.

    After a long time, he put down his phone and made a decision.

    ¡¾no¡­¡­¡¿

    Wang Qingjun sat up suddenly, clicked on his phone, closed the page showing the copywriting, and said sorry to his agent in his heart.  [I don¡¯t want to be one of those people.  ¡¿

    Opening WeChat, Wang Qingjun took a deep breath and started typing word by word.

    When Amei finished watching "Black Mirror", she fell into a long-lasting daze.

    The senior walked up behind her and asked her how her work was going.

    Amei looked at the notebook spread out on the table. It was blank with nothing on it.

    The senior asked Amei what was going on, but Amei remained motionless and did not answer.  The senior was silent for a moment, shook his head and left.

    Amei continued to be dazed for a while, and then searched the Internet for tweets related to "Black Mirror".

    There are some praises and some belittlings, the ones that are praised are extremely exaggerated and real, but the ones that are criticized are very empty, like a template prepared in advance.

    Amei discovered that there was a tweet related to "Black Mirror" on the popular trending page, and it was actually posted by Wang Qingjun, the protagonist of the first episode of "Black Mirror" [National Anthem].

    Wang Qingjun said:

    ¡¾Nowadays, the trend of asking people to take sides on the Internet is very popular, and I was also asked where I wanted to stand.  I actually don¡¯t want to stand on either side, I just want to stand on the side of the truth.  If Han Jue really committed a crime, then he will go through legal procedures and let the law decide.  But before the truth came out, people started to attack because of hearsay. This bad behavior is no different from crime. The only difference is that they blended into the crowd and committed crimes together, and the law does not punish the crowd.

    If Han Jue is innocent, then all of us have been fooled.  Just like in Black Mirror, we have all been used, kidnapped, and played.

    Someone asked me what type of drama "Black Mirror" is. I didn't have a clear definition of the drama at the time, so I made a joke to explain it.  Because a series like this has never been seen before, the content is ridiculous, but scary when you think about it for a moment.  Now I can confirm that this is an allegorical play.

    Now the same thing happens, we sit back and watch the movie become reality and become one of the stupid mediocre people.  Or pursue the truth and become a sober person?

    So, don¡¯t let ¡°Black Mirror¡± become reality.

    Until the truth comes out, I will not criticize, support, or take sides.  Most of the time, too intense emotions are not conducive to discussion and communication of topics.

    We should remember at any time that if evil forces win in the world, those who will be held accountable first are not the tame executors of the evil side, but the sober servers of the good side.  ¡¿

    Wang Qingjun¡¯s speech made him like a flag, using "Black Mirror" as a fuel to light a flame in the chaotic and irrational public opinion environment.

    He made those who were lost in the chaotic environment seem to find their way and move closer to the flames bit by bit.

    He wants to tell the world that this society will not be as bad as in the movie.

    [Don't let "Black Mirror" become a reality] Amei muttered silently in her heart, suddenly made up her mind, put the scrap manuscript into her bag carefully, then pushed away the chair and strode to the deputy editor.  .

    The deputy editor raised his glasses and asked, "What? Has it been written?"

    Amei could feel that in addition to the deputy editor in front of her, the eyes of other colleagues were also focused on her.  Amei blushed and almost ran away, but despite this, she still said what she wanted to say firmly and clearly:

    "I, I want to resign!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
