The call came from Maggs, who asked Dulin to turn on the TV and watch Channel 1.
Du Lin was a little strange. While he asked his secretary to notify the people in the conference room to dismiss the meeting, he walked to the lounge in his office and turned on the TV.
In fact, people in the Empire prefer to enjoy themselves. Most of the top officials in the departments have a separate rest room in their offices.
There is a comfortable bed, a bathroom, and some more personal items inside.
When they are tired from work, they can rest anytime and anywhere to ensure that their physical and mental conditions are always good, which is also a responsible attitude toward work.
Dulin closed the door, turned on the TV, sat by the chair and looked at the screen. The word "live broadcast" appeared in the upper right corner of the screen, which meant that all the pictures were sent directly to the viewers from the scene.
Live broadcast technology is not an overly advanced technology, because the areas where live broadcast is possible are very limited. If you want to live broadcast, the equipment used for live broadcast must be able to connect to the main line of the local cable TV company.
In other words, most live broadcast venues are no more than two hundred meters away from cable TV signal lines. If it is too far away, there will be no time to lay out too long lines.
The building in the picture looked familiar to Du Lin, but he couldn't remember where it was for a while. However, Du Lin knew the person in the picture.
A young man who looks to be in his thirties, he has a very decent appearance and a very good temperament, especially the shape of the two collar buttons on his collar, which are the shape of the royal family emblem.
This is a member of the royal family. He is the second son of His Royal Highness, Hikari, a very famous playboy in the aristocratic circle.
He may not be richer than Dulin or some other big capitalists, nor may he have more power than some politicians, but his natural royal blood makes him very popular in the empire.
The middle class's yearning for nobility and royalty is crazy, which makes Hikali as popular as a superstar among this group. It happens that the middle class is also the main consumer of some mid-to-high-end brands. Among the many members of the royal family , he is doing well.
At least that's the current situation. A large amount of advertising revenue and some additional income make his life very comfortable.
Du Lin was a little surprised when such an "unremarkable" guy appeared on the TV. After waiting for a few minutes, the royal chief executive suddenly appeared on the screen. Du Lin suddenly recalled that this should be on the Imperial Avenue. in a hotel.
Then more members of the royal family appeared on the screen. At this time, the host came back from a distance, holding a draft in her hand.
Most formal political events will have an official press release, which is more like a core idea. No matter how media people write or write next, they must recreate the core ideas expressed in this press release. , cannot exceed the line of the content of the draft.
It ensures that some serious political events will not cause huge misunderstandings due to wrong interpretations. Sometimes this misunderstanding is not terrible, but sometimes this misunderstanding may implicate many people.
The host watched for a while before picking up the microphone with a ghostly expression on his face. He opened his mouth without making a sound. After almost ten seconds, he faced the camera and began to introduce the situation behind him.
"His Majesty the Emperor fell into a coma unexpectedly this morning while visiting the garden. He later regained consciousness after being rescued. At present, we learned from the doctor that His Majesty the Emperor's current condition can no longer take care of more work. After a noon discussion, His Majesty finally agreed Decided to abdicate and pass the throne to His Highness the Third Prince..."
The change of power of the royal family and the emperor is indeed a big event for the emperor. In the seemingly true and false history, the royal family just "retreated behind the scenes", and Magus did not completely abolish the royal family, which allowed the royal family to be preserved. Down, in the form of a mascot.
But even if the royal family is just a mascot, the influence of this mascot is very amazing. Just the change of the throne has alarmed the entire empire. Even some foreign embassies in the empire are discussing how to celebrate. The accession of the new emperor to the throne.
What is a little strange is that His Majesty the Emperor did not pass the throne to the relatively low-key eldest prince, but to the third prince. If Mags hadn't told Du Lin some of the inside stories, Du Lin might not have guessed it. Why is there such a result.
I thought this was just a change of times and royal power. Just when Du Lin was about to turn off the TV, the hostess spoke again. This time, what she said really aroused Du Lin's interest.
"Just now, His Royal Highness the Grand Prince publicly announced that he would form a 'Baath Party' and actively participate in the construction of the empire..."
When the reporter finished these words, a very contemporary word suddenly popped into Dulin's mind - "imperialist party".
His Royal Highness the eldest prince holds the real power of the royal family. Now the emperor of the empire is dissatisfied with the eldest prince's choice and passed the throne to the third prince either out of anger or whatever. This leaves the eldest prince facing a choice.
Either hand over the power that belongs to the royal family to the third prince who is about to ascend the throne, complete his "mission", and then become a mascot without power, be jealous of his younger brother and even eventually kill him.
Or choose to stick to your choice, oust the third prince, and ascend the throne as the emperor yourself. But doing so also has great sequelae. The illegal and unreasonable access to the throne will make him, the emperor, a "pseudo emperor" in some people's mouth.
An illegitimate emperor means that the power he holds is also illegitimate, which means that he cannot represent the royal family, which will make him very embarrassed. What is even more troublesome is that it will allow some people to pinch some of the exiled royal families out of thin air. The orthodox bloodline came to question and harm the authority of the royal family.
It seemed that the eldest prince no longer had the power to choose, but this guy unexpectedly solved this dilemma very quickly through another method, which was to form the Imperial Party.
Under such circumstances, the eldest prince is active on the political stage as a "royalist" and the first person in the imperial party, so he does not need to hand over the power in his hands. On the contrary, some royalists and members of the royal family will be more proactive moved closer to him.
The third prince's ascension to the throne in turn made people feel a little funny. Not only did the old emperor's desire for revenge fail, but his son, the new emperor, became a victim.
As long as there are no problems with the eldest prince's imperial party, even if they cannot play a greater role on the political stage, at least in the next few decades to one or two generations, the power of the royal family will be controlled by the eldest prince's family. in hand.
There is even a more interesting possibility that the royal family will be excluded from the real imperial party and become the real mascot!
This move is very beautiful, but it will also bring huge changes to the political ecological environment of the entire empire.
The carving up of the empire by the new party and the old party has made each other feel that the resources and power they control are very scarce. If the God Party is added to the mix, the next political situation will be even more complicated.
Du Lin was thinking about a question at this time. Could such a change have something to do with his plan to run for election
He felt that it was very possible that Maggs was very good at creating such things to achieve his own goals. The new party, which had been undefeated for thirty consecutive years, actually lost to the old party, preventing Powers from coming to power.
It is not impossible that the Baath Party will win the first election after its "comeback".
I plan to go to the hospital for a physical examination in two days, and I am actively correcting my work and rest schedule. I will go to bed as early as possible these days. I will start updating during the day tomorrow and the day after tomorrow to avoid the possibility of sudden death at any time. Please forgive me for the time being.
