King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer -
Chapter 919 - 830 Media Storm
830
When night fell again over the land of Syria, an intense 18-hour raid finally came to a close.
Reporter Wallace transformed into a video editing assistant, hiding in the communications room constantly editing videos, searching for less shaky footage to splice together according to the teams' nationalities.
Then, with some background music added, he uploaded it to the P·B official website, and also reposted it on YouTube.
Editing really is a miraculous thing; it's like the NBA drafts, just by watching Zhou Qi's training clips, you'd think this guy is at least on the level of superstar Garnett.
The special forces in Syria are no pushovers; they're genuinely top-tier units from various nations.
Wallace merely cut out the less attractive parts of their operation, slightly sped up the footage, and those special forces in the shaky video turned into 'movie stars'.
He avoided those blood-soaked scenes that would definitely be banned or restricted, and focused on showcasing the prowess of the special forces!
Then these videos, which were at least rated 16+, instantly went viral!
With intentional promotion from America itself and the backers behind Qiao, the views on the video shot up instantly!
And it was quickly reshared by various media platforms and influencers, giving birth to a range of bizarre rankings...
For instance, military enthusiasts ranked the best squads, and even broke it down into polls for individual positions.
Streaming platforms were certainly not short of a female audience, and led by Charlene, Princess Amina, and Jemma Alexander, this conflict gained unprecedented attention from women.
It's just too bad that the female perspective tends to skew off track, and their values seem to follow their senses—this seems to be the case globally...
Men can create 'best squads' based on performance, and naturally, women can do the same, thus the 'Most Handsome Squad' poll was born.
Surprisingly to everyone, the universally acknowledged 'most handsome' was none other than 'Rabbit Squad'.
Their highway ambush strategy, especially that intense final assault, perfectly fitted women's fantasies of super soldiers.
They might not understand the strategies or tactics, but when Rabbit Squad jumped out of the trenches in the final phase with guns blazing, bravely exchanging fire with the dying terrorists, that intense surge of hormones infected a large number of female viewers.
Not only were their tactical postures standard and handsome, but even their roaring expressions after being shot looked particularly manly.
This group of 'foreigners' handpicked by the Chinese military really suited people's aesthetic preferences.
'Chameleon' looking like Judelo is not a mere saying.
This twenty-something Russian young man not only resembles Judelo but also is a young version of him before balding.
Even with his face painted, he's handsome enough to make girls scream.
The era of streaming media is an extremely complicated and frustrating place, but the main source of online traffic still comes from women.
If 'Chameleon' attracts 'lustful' women, then 'Dandelion' is truly impressive...
Qiao's feminist left and right hands, Princess Charlene and Princess Amina, both shared the operation video of Rabbit Squad, then specifically highlighted the West Xinjiang girl 'Dandelion'.
Then, a delicate flower blooming in a man's world made feminist organizations boil over with excitement.
In the past, women participating in war was hardly newsworthy, as there were many Kurdish female soldiers.
However, in the past, no one seriously managed the traffic related to this aspect, or rather, they were restricted.
Not only did the mainstream world avoid this topic, but even those profiting from the feminist movement traffic deliberately avoided it.
For those influencers, it was 'business', and touching content they were powerless over was a 'losing business'.
But 'Dandelion' was different—the girl from West Xinjiang herself was pretty, and with someone boosting her, she became famous in less than 8 hours, and unreasonably so.
A Los Angeles clothing company posted a seven-figure check on their Twitter account, expressing their desire to buy the portrait rights of Dandelion.
And they stated that if Dandelion was inconvenient to receive the payment, they would donate the money to Princess Amina's charity foundation, which would then convert the money into supplies to send to Syria.
Following that, T-shirts featuring 'Dandelion's' portrait were launched; the first batch of 1000 shirts was sold out as soon as they hit the stores, selling better than T-shirts featuring Che Guevara.
Then, there was an 'impressive sight' in Los Angeles of lines forming to wait for a T-shirt, and most of those in line were girls!
A group of young girls living in a peaceful world, who had put aside their focus on cosmetics, handbags, and celebrity breakups, were seriously paying attention to and discussing a war for the first time.
Although their focus was a bit off, it did not prevent them from making this war a focal point.
It was the first time in the world that war was treated this way!
P·B pioneered a new model, presenting all content for people to examine globally.
With clear stands and explicit goals, the causes and consequences were crystal clear.
Of course, there were still many opponents, but so what?
Whether it's according to political correctness or international law, P·B's actions are justified and legal.
American TV media began working overtime to discuss seriously, professional channels brought in various military experts, eager to analyze frame by frame the videos edited by Wallace, and then applaud every decision made by the special forces.
This is the American Government's negotiation team, pressuring Hafali through TV media...
They are warning Hafali: dirty bombs are formidable, but if you want to continue, then I will make all of you pay the price.
Mr. Qiao fulfilled the promise he made to Defense Minister Carter, and in less than three days, not even reaching 48 hours, nearly 1700 ISIS members were killed...
The hard-earned anti-aircraft positions were destroyed, multiple ammunition depots were destroyed, multiple checkpoint camps were destroyed...
A gathering of mercenaries in the town encountered a devastating strike, ISIS members were wiped out, mercenaries all ran away, several important locations were bombed, and several key figures were either killed or went missing.
A night of special forces' spree not only demonstrated the correct use of special forces to the world but also made everyone understand Mr. Qiao's determination to stick it out in Syria and engage ISIS until the end!
P·B has long held a superior position on the media level, allowing them to effortlessly guide the direction of the media.
When the media in Europe and America including feminist organizations stood out to praise this as a great victory, those European countries couldn't sit still.
Especially Italy and Greece, their politicians who loved grandstanding for the sake of grabbing traffic, took the lead in 'claiming' their own teams!
Italy's 'Super Gun Cavalry' and Greece's 'Spartans' instantly became trending topics...
Initially, they supported P·B covertly, sending people to assist in the form of 'Volunteer Soldiers', fearing the consequences if something went wrong.
But now, seeing the situation, why hesitate? They are all our own people...
This acknowledgment has brought a lot of praise to the politicians!
Italy and Greece became excited, and the happiest were the people of their own country!
This is the first time Europe hasn't seen protests due to war intervention, as the emotional female netizens led the direction of the conversation.
Seeing the benefits reaped by Italians and Greeks, the Swedish Government did not act, but their Crown Princess stepped forward to 'claim' their special forces.
And she even pulled her siblings, who were vacationing in Central Africa, to record a video sending encouragement and blessings to Sweden's 'Paratrooper Assault Team'!
This kind of 'competition' caused the Germans and Austrians, who were reluctant to appear, immense embarrassment...
Still, they didn't drag it out for too long, Austrians took the lead to 'claim' their own 'Ekato Assault Squad', stating that Austria is a firm ally of P·B on the anti-terrorism road.
The remaining Germans held out for 5 more hours, and finally, their federal defense army inspector clocked in to 'claim' their own KSK...
Then this civilian officer stated that Germany is willing to contribute its power in the 'anti-terrorism cause', which also serves as a response to the extremist groups that once attempted to attack Germany with chemical weapons.
In the eyes of the world, the German military has always been perceived as 'inept'.
Even if they send troops to fight alongside the allies, the attitude of German soldiers remains indifferent...
Sausage, barbecue, beer—these are the labels of German soldiers.
This active engagement in war excited a part of the right-wing in Germany.
The Americans, trying to distract their citizens and in turn control Europe, had ruined political correctness.
Europe, following America, ran headlong on the 'left-leaning' path, and the various bizarre 'political correct' measures began to wear out people.
The principle of 'opposite extremes must react' holds true everywhere, leading to the rise of the right-wing conservative forces, gaining considerable support.
Not just in Germany, right-wing forces all across Europe are rising. The more aggressively the LGBT fights, the quicker the right-wing conservative force grows.
And the weaker the economy, the higher the surge in nationalistic sentiments, the more support the right-wing gains.
This situation is the same all around the world!
Germany, now the leading economic power in Europe, yet completely lacking in military autonomy, how can those conservative and prideful people tolerate this?
For the first time, KSK is not dispatched by the Americans or the European Union, but independently involved in an anti-terrorism war, greatly boosting the spirits of some Germans.
If it's normal for these 'Volunteer Soldiers' to be claimed, then the exposure of P·B's elite squads undoubtedly makes one sigh.
The permanent members are the true rulers of this world; what is there to brag about the special forces of some tiny countries?
However, P·B's T1 units are all squads that have retired from the military lineup and hold a 'dark history'...
Officially, they are reluctant to admit these were once their people, but Boss Qiao never lets his people down on the "honor" issue.
Under Wallace's lens, he personally interviewed his people...
Just like that spliced video of the beauty pageant...
The teams, whose bodies were still smelling of gunpowder, were dragged into a room with a green screen, and after posing their coolest poses for the photos, Boss Qiao would loudly ask...
"Where are you from?"
Members of 'Jazz Squad', their faces covered in camouflage and filled with a somber aura...
"Russia〜"
"Ura〜"
'Ferryman' showed no romantic traits of the French, these soldiers from France's most elite troops proudly saluted...
"France〜"
"Montjoie〜"
Compared to the pride of the Russians and French, SAS's 'Goat' and 'Iron Hammer' from England were much more awkward...
They chose to face away from the camera, took a group photo, shouted "England" and bowed their heads to leave.
The 'Rabbit Squad' was quite at ease, they look nothing like Chinese, so they just stood there boldly and shouted...
"China〜"
"Serve the People!"
The slogan was shouted with proper form and tone, unfortunately, not many believed they were Chinese; they thought Boss Qiao was just assembling a team to pretend to be T1 of the permanent members.
Honestly, the frustration of not being believed is known only to those who experience it...
Compared to the others, members of 'Sharp Knife Squad' pondered for a long time, and under Boss Qiao's encouragement, they chose to wipe off the camouflage on their faces, stood straight before the camera to salute, and burst out their former code names...
"Hellhound"
"Saint"
"Gunpowder"
"Frisbee"
"Locksmith"
"Shark"
SEALs Team Six, Red Squadron, Squad B!
