African Entrepreneurship Record
Chapter 1117 Public Opinion
After the cruiser Luanda completed the rescue mission, not long after, the Titanic completely exceeded its carrying capacity. The entire ship sank rapidly into the Atlantic Ocean, causing a stormy sea in the Atlantic Ocean, and some lifeboats that did not come and those that were far away were also affected.
There were still some lifeboats around the Titanic. The Luanda mainly used the Titanic as its main rescue target at that time. Naturally, it was estimated that the lifeboats that had been scattered around would greatly distract and consume the Luanda. The rescue force loses more than it gains.
Some lifeboats, due to improper operation, did not leave the area affected by the sinking of the Titanic in time, and were also brought under the water of the Atlantic Ocean by this terrifying cruise ship.
After confirming that the Titanic had completely sunk, the cruiser Luanda began to return to the scene and released a huge rescue bomb to guide the lifeboats that had gone out before the Titanic sank to move closer to the Luanda.
The rescue activities continued until another British merchant ship arrived. At this time, the Luanda could only evacuate first. After all, the wounded and supplies took time, and the Luanda could not stay there forever.
…
Rhine city.
"The Titanic sank in the Atlantic Ocean..."
Ernst was a little silent when he took the news sent back from the Luanda, because it was really a coincidence, because the rescue of the Titanic was not at all what Ernst expected.
Although Ernst knew the Titanic, a famous ship in its previous life, Ernst never thought about saving this tragedy.
The most important thing is that Ernst didn't know that the Titanic would sink this year. After all, sitting in Ernst's position, he received information about major national events every day. Who would care about a British ship thousands of miles away? Cruise ship.
As for the mission of the cruiser Luanda, it was entirely arranged by the naval department, and Ernst had no involvement at all, so the chance encounter of the Luanda with the Titanic was completely out of Ernst's calculations.
Of course, this is not a bad thing for East Africa. It can still have a positive publicity effect on the international image of East Africa. Especially since the cruiser Luanda, as an East African warship, rescued a British cruise ship in the Atlantic Ocean, it is still the best in the world. The most famous cruise ship, there is just too much drama.
As for the arrangements for the cruiser Luanda, this aspect is naturally a good opportunity for the media of East African countries to promote East Africa.
Ernst told Merk: "To commend all the officers and soldiers of the cruiser Luanda is an opportunity to show the good image of our army."
Merk nodded and said, "Yes, Your Highness."
For Ernst, now that the East African warship Luanda's rescue of the Titanic was a foregone conclusion, the next step was to maximize the benefits.
After all, saving so many people this time is likely to have a huge impact on the trajectory of history. You must know that many people on the Titanic were rich or noble. Who knows what kind of impact these people will have on the future of history after they survive. waves.
Of course, history has changed a long time ago, so it is a done deal. Ernst does not care much about the interference of the Titanic incident on history. After all, Ernst himself is the biggest interference factor in the development of history.
"The publicity department should use this opportunity to greatly improve our image in European and American countries, especially in the UK. I believe that with the help of this Titanic incident, our public image in the UK can undergo earth-shaking changes."
East Africa has never had a positive influence in British public opinion. Even the East-British reconciliation has not been able to immediately change the British people's attitude towards East Africa.
As a world hegemon, Britain also controls the hegemony of world public opinion. Since the end of the South African War, the British government has relied on this hegemony of public opinion to conduct a dark campaign against East Africa for nearly two decades.
Even the poorest patriot in East London can't help but spit on the ground when he talks about the country of East Africa.
In British public opinion, the image of East Africa can be said to be no less than their ridicule of the French or Americans. After all, the birth of East Africa destroyed the British grand strategy of colonizing Africa. East Africa itself now has more than 10 million square kilometers of land. It can be said that Most of them were colonies of the British in their previous lives.
Of course, what the British hate most is the disastrous defeat of the South African War. Although the South African War was advertised as a draw, everyone knows that for Britain, the most powerful country in the world, a draw is just a fig leaf. .
The UK, which could not defeat East Africa by force, naturally had to make up for it in other ways. However, the UK's economic sanctions were not significant, and only public opinion achieved revenge against East Africa.
All in all, the image of the country in East Africa is definitely not positive because of the small-mindedness of the British and the deliberate guidance of the British government.
At other times, East Africa would naturally not care too much about this, but at this time, East Africa needs the goodwill of the British to obtain more investments and loans from the British.
So Ernst said: "Now when we borrow money from abroad, the UK always looks down upon East Africa because of stereotypes and arrogance. This is definitely not a good thing for us."
"After all, the UK is now the most capital-rich country in the world. If we want to obtain development funds, we cannot ignore the UK, and the UK's long-term negative publicity against our country puts us at a disadvantage in trade with the UK."
Although Britain lost millions of square kilometers of black African land in its previous life because of East Africa, Britain is still the world's largest colonial country and maintains its position as the center of the world's financial industry.
In this way, even if the British industry is not counted, the pound can maintain a strong currency value. After all, the pound can circulate in most parts of the world and represents the strongest purchasing power in the world today.
Therefore, no country can bypass the pound in foreign trade, and East Africa is naturally the same. For example, the trade between East Africa and India must be completed with the pound as the main medium.
East Africa can buy the goods, machinery and raw materials it wants in most parts of the world if it obtains enough pounds.
However, it is also fortunate that the pound is far less stable than the hegemony of the US dollar in the previous life, otherwise East Africa would not be able to bypass Britain to achieve industrialization.
However, obtaining a large amount of pounds is absolutely beneficial to the development of East Africa's own industry, and Britain's negative public opinion on East Africa has affected East Africa's efforts to obtain more pounds through borrowing, investment promotion or trade to accelerate its own industrial development.
This is why Ernst wanted to use the Titanic as a breakthrough to change the negative impression of the British people on East Africa.
Ernst: "The more favorable the public opinion in the UK is to us, the more industrial development funds we can get, thereby opening up the British colonial market in exchange for the resources and energy we want. The UK itself controls a market of more than 400 million people, and the Titanic incident can also open up sales in this huge market of 400 million people."
In the British colonial market, many British colonies originally had a bad impression of East Africa because of the attitude of the mother country. This is unavoidable. For example, in the Far East Empire in the previous life, a certain area colonized by the UK was still difficult to eliminate even after the UK left, and it lasted until the 21st century.
The UK directly controls the public opinion of nearly 400 million people. As long as it writes a little article, it can discredit East Africa. Now East Africa's rescue of the Titanic is a positive event that cannot be covered up at all. If it can be used well, it can not only greatly change the attitude of the British towards East Africa, but also greatly improve the attitude of the 400 million population market controlled by the UK towards East Africa.
And emotions themselves can affect trade. After all, trade boycotts are common in history. Similarly, the improvement of British public opinion towards East Africa can greatly stimulate East Africa's foreign trade.
