Eureka's Kazimierz interview: a new high for "Yes, Prime Minister"? / Chen Qi: do you really have to elevate my show?

In the next twenty years, Victoria's Civil Service System will become increasingly entrenched and rife with intrigue. Undoubtedly, the "advanced knowledge" that the Bloodborne Archon shared with them in "Yes, Prime Minister" is enough for each of them to spend a lifetime comprehending.

"Call..."

Meanwhile, in the screening room, Vina, who had been diligently studying Yan language, resumed her studies because of the start of filming for "Yes, Prime Minister." Now, as she looked at the words filled in her notebook and gazed at Chen Qi, who was supervising the filming, her eyes shone even brighter.

These are all very important experiences for her to take the elite route and enter the Victoria system in the future!

Now, Vina is increasingly convinced that she made the right choice. Chen Qi is the one who can help her return to the center of power in Victoria and gradually regain control of the Victoria!

With Director Chen Qi around, she will undoubtedly avoid many detours on her path to becoming an elite, and she is getting closer and closer to that goal!

Meanwhile, on the other side, the Duke of Wellington, having seen this segment broadcast, felt the time was ripe and began ordering Victoria's spies to focus their attention on Kazimierz.

He believed that this generous gift from "Yes, Prime Minister" to Kazimierz would certainly subject Kazimierz to intense criticism, both financially and politically. Coupled with the support of Kazimierz's newspapers, which seemed to thrive on drama, this would keep them quite busy.

"I can't wait! Those knights must be thrilled this time. They can finally find something to use against the Commercial Federation and cause trouble."

"Tsk tsk, they should thank us. This time, we helped them 'regain power'."

The Duke of Wellington muttered to himself, but the smile on his face never faded. He couldn't wait to see the knights and merchants break off completely, and for Kazimierz to return to their "glorious era"—it sounded so appealing.

Chapter 141: Eureka's Kazimierz Interview, A New Height for "Yes, Prime Minister"?

"Teacher! Teacher! Come quick, look at the news! Something's happened in Kazimierz!"

In less than a week, Chen Qi was still discussing the filming of " To the To the Moon" with Kristen, and as usual, whenever there were outsiders around, Theresia stayed by Chen Qi's side without speaking, but she never left his side.

Theresia is currently simulating the "living dead" state that the Confessors has managed to resurrect. Having seen similar situations before, Theresia is a first-rate actress. She can imitate the living dead, who, although she answers fluently, is actually just doing things according to "instructions," which is incredibly easy for her.

So much so that even those who knew Theresia very well couldn't see anything amiss. Even Theresis only felt that Theresia did talk a little more when she was with Chen Qi, but only a couple of times at most.

Every time Chen Qi saw how perfectly Theresia disguised herself, he thought to himself that he wished he could get Theresia to act in his movies, then the next "Best Actress" award would definitely go to Theresia.

What broke the atmosphere on Chen Qi's side was Vina, who is now Chen Qi's student and also works part-time as "Queen Victoria's maid," bringing news from faraway Kazimierz to Chen Qi and the others.

"Teacher, after the fourth episode of your 'Yes, Prime Minister' was circulated in Kazimierz, the whole of Kazimierz is now in chaos!"

"Episode 4?" Chen Qi raised an eyebrow at this. Although the Duke of Wellington hadn't told Victoria about their plans, Chen Qi wasn't stupid. He knew that Victoria's support for him making "Yes, Prime Minister" was definitely aimed at disgusting other countries.

The financial content in the fourth episode will definitely have a significant impact on places like Kazimierz, which have Commercial Federation. However, Chen Qi was somewhat surprised; are the countries of Terra so easily affected?

Chen Qi was already quite surprised that the first season of "Yes, Prime Minister" could act as a catalyst to cause a rift in Victoria, but he could understand it after all. After all, Victoria was in a state of leaderlessness at the time, and the eight dukes had their own agendas. It was understandable that they would use this incident to stage a coup.

But Kazimierz? Chen Qi had actually been there. Although the Campaign Knight Kazimierz not acknowledge it, it was still a relatively stable place in many ways. How could it fall apart after just one episode of criticism?

"I'm not lying, teacher. Kazimierz is in an uproar because of this episode—I even have a recording of Kazimierz's TV broadcast here."

As she spoke, Vina handed her phone to Chen Qi, then said with some excitement, "Dr. Kal'tsit sent over the Kazimierz newspaper, but Mr. Młynar took it. He believes the news in the newspaper more."

Meanwhile, Chen Qi was watching the news broadcast on Vina's phone. Kristen couldn't resist his curiosity and came over. Even Theresia, feeling that there were no other people watching and no one was paying attention, finally couldn't resist looking over...

Soon, everyone saw a woman Zalak with pink hair and a rather beautiful face on the phone screen, who spoke to the screen:

"This is Kazimierz Television, and I'm Eureka, your special correspondent for this Kazimierz report!"

"As you can see, the people of Kazimierz behind me are extremely agitated; they have gathered at the National Assembly in Kazimierz for a large-scale march and protest!"

"Among them were even many Competition Knights and Campaign Knight! Although they were all dressed in armor, silent and unseen, their presence here was not only to maintain order, but also a symbol of their own resolve!"

Behind Eureka, Chen Qi could clearly hear that these were obviously organized and disciplined protest groups, mostly composed of civilians, but there were also a few knights in armor among them, though he couldn't tell their identities.

In modern-day Kazimierz, thanks to the involvement of the Commercial Federation, Competition Knight wear electronic identification tags for identification purposes.

The Campaign Knight, however, wore these electronic identification tags out of disapproval of the Commercial Federation; their identities were based on the ancient "dog tags."

This time, however, whether they were Competition Knight or Campaign Knight, everyone who chose to protest silently concealed or discarded anything that could verify their identity. They stood there like statues, exuding a silent sense of oppression.

In contrast, the residents of Kazimierz behind them were responsible for chanting slogans, and their voices were remarkably unified:

"We demand a public investigation! The Commercial Federation's audit records must be made public!"

"The National Assembly and the Commercial Federation are colluding! Just how many people is the National Assembly trying to silence?"

"We demand a retrial of the Nearl Family's case! We want to clear the Nearl Family!"

"We can hear the people of Kazimierz shouting loudly!" Eureka, clearly seeing such a large-scale demonstration for the first time, was also visibly influenced by the emotions of the crowd, his voice rising several decibels.

"And the reason for all this is the fourth episode of 'Yes, Prime Minister,' which is now a huge hit in many countries and was once listed as a 'banned drama' by the Ursus Empire!"

"The incisive revelations about the financial world sparked considerable discussion among the people of Kazimierz. All of this erupted following the release of a chat log from within Kazimierz of dubious origin and questionable authenticity!"

"This also involves the disappearance of the Nearl Family, from the renowned knightly family of Kazimierz! Ah! Grand Knight Commander Ioleta of the Supervision Committee has appeared! Let's go interview them!"

Before Eureka could finish speaking, the Grand Knight Commander had already walked out of the National Assembly, and Eureka immediately went to the front to interview him.

After going through all sorts of hardships, Eureka finally squeezed out from a large group of reporters. Perhaps because Eureka was too excited, she almost pushed her way out of the crowd and miraculously dodged two knight guards, throwing herself directly at the Grand Knight Commander!

Be careful.

"Ahhh! I'm so sorry! I'm a reporter! I didn't mean to!" Eureka was helped up by the Grand Knight Commander and quickly apologized to Grand Knight Commander, but she still didn't forget her job and almost reflexively asked:

"Grand Knight Commander! I am Eureka, a special correspondent. We have many questions that the people of Kazimierz are concerned about, and we hope you can respond to them!"

This was the first time Eureka had come so close to the Grand Knight Commander, yet she failed to notice his gesture to stop Grand Knight Commander. Without it, Eureka would have already been thrown out by the two guard knights and might have been killed as an assassin.

Fortunately, although the Grand Knight Commander felt ashamed before the Nearl Family, he was worthy of his name, and calmly asked, "Please ask, I have come here to respond on behalf of Kazimierz."

"Thank you! So, regarding the first question, concerning the momentous incident involving the Nearl Family, what is the Grand Knight Commander's response?"

Eureka's first question concerned the Nearl Family, seemingly forgetting that she had come to interview about the collusion between the Commercial Federation and the National Assembly. However, this question remained a sensitive one for Kazimierz.

However, the Grand Knight Commander calmly replied, "I deeply regret the disappearance of the Nearl Family couple, but everything is confidential and cannot be disclosed. Next question."

"Ah, okay." Eureka was also a little nervous. She had just wanted to ask about the veracity of the chat logs regarding the disappearance of the Nearl Family couple and their connection to the Supervision Committee, but she keenly sensed that asking that question might lead to her death, so she quickly changed her mind:

"Then, Grand Knight Commander, could you please reveal some information regarding the widely publicized collusion between the Commercial Union and the National Assembly, as well as the tax evasion and bribery issues exposed by the Commercial Federation?"

"We are still conducting an internal security investigation into this matter, and once we have uncovered all the details, we will immediately inform the people of Kazimierz."

The Grand Knight Commander remained calm and composed, replying, "Furthermore, the Commercial Federation and the Supervision Committee have no vested interests. The Supervision Committee can fully guarantee this. The Commercial Federation has not yet responded to this matter, but we are already investigating the bribery issue within the National Assembly."

"So, the next question."

"Oh, okay, I see. Then..."

However, just as Eureka was about to ask something, perhaps intimidated by the Grand Knight Commander's seemingly calm yet subtly sharp gaze, Eureka gave an awkward smile and said sheepishly:

"No, I'm sorry, please wait a moment while I check my question..."

Clearly, some of Eureka's questions couldn't be asked, Eureka also had to process the interview content on his phone to see which questions were inappropriate to ask.

However, just as Eureka took out her phone to consider the problem, she discovered Eureka her phone, which she had used for several years, had frozen as soon as she entered the selection page, perhaps because the memory was almost full.

"Oh no, is it? It crashed? At this hour?"

Eureka didn't dare keep the Grand Knight Commander any longer, feeling countless eyes staring at her, so she hurriedly tapped on her phone.

Eureka's phone then returned to normal, but the first app to respond wasn't the notes app... but a video app.

Eureka didn't completely exit the software; the video started playing immediately after she opened it, and the content playing, whether it was timed correctly or not, was the fourth episode of "Yes, Prime Minister," which Eureka had only watched half of.

What's even more awkward is that, because Eureka wasn't speaking, she was holding the wireless microphone upside down in her hand, right in front of the speaker on her phone...

So, with the phone's speaker volume at maximum and the microphone amplified to its maximum, Eureka's half-watched episode 4 of "Yes, Prime Minister" quickly spread out in a voice that everyone present could hear clearly.

The content involves Prime Minister Hacker, played by Theresis, and Dorothy, played by Talulah, discussing the City scandal...

Theresis: "I'm thinking about Berenson's scandal. What do you think?"

Talulah: "Something's fishy. Because of the statements from the various banks in the City."

Theresis: "But they haven't made any statement, have they?"

Talulah: "That's why it's strange. If the rumors were just baseless, they would definitely rush to deny them."

However, when the content of the fourth episode of "Yes, Prime Minister" was played at maximum volume so that everyone could hear it clearly, it coincidentally corresponded to the Grand Knight Commander's earlier response of not denying any rumors, echoing the earlier statement.

In an instant, the previously noisy arena fell silent, everyone staring blankly at Eureka, who had done all this, in front of the Grand Knight Commander.

Soon, many knights and civilians looked at Eureka as if she were a hero. They admired this girl who dared to confront the Grand Knight Commander and refute his statement with the content of "Yes, Prime Minister"!

At this moment, Eureka's face turned deathly pale, and her hands and feet were ice-cold.

At this moment, even the Grand Knight Commander turned pale.

Eureka said nothing, but the content broadcast on "Yes, Prime Minister" at that moment seemed to have said everything Eureka had to say, and also expressed the sentiments of all the people of Kazimierz.

Whether it's the collusion between the Commercial Federation and the National Assembly, tax evasion and bribery, or even whether the disappearance of the Nearl Family couple Supervision Committee and Futures Commission, this segment of "Yes, Prime Minister" has already answered all the questions!

If it had nothing to do with you, you would definitely step forward to disclaim any involvement. But now you can't even give a direct response, and you still say this matter has nothing to do with you?

The next second, the news broadcast abruptly ended. Chen Qi, who had been watching this scene, took a long time to recover from the shock of the news, and after a long while, he muttered to himself:

"... Oh no, Eureka's performance has once again elevated 'Yes, Prime Minister' to a new level that doesn't belong to him."

Chen Qi was well aware of just how explosive the program effect of this interview would be. It was no less than the effect of the eight Dukes of Victoria collectively cutting off the broadcast of "Yes, Prime Minister" back then.

Now, the Kazimierz Supervision Committee, the National Assembly, and the Commercial Federation are truly unable to clear their names, even if they were to go to the Seaborn, because the people of Kazimierz no longer trust them.

The enormous impact of the credit collapse will cause wave after wave of shocks to Kazimierz in the coming period... and the source of all this, as some have pointed to, is his "Yes, Prime Minister" incident!

Chen Qi, after his drama series split a country, has achieved his second world-class accomplishment.

One TV series destroyed a nation's reputation. Eureka was the best accomplice.

A week has passed, and he has already finished filming episodes five and six of "Yes, Prime Minister." The content of episodes five and six is even more explosive, and it can be said to be an indiscriminate area-of-effect attack across Terra.

This time, Chen Qi was forced to press his advantage. "Yes, Prime Minister" was going to step on the gas pedal again during a time of national turmoil!

Now, can Chen Qi really escape responsibility? How will the people of Terra view him?

Chen Qi didn't know the answer to that question; all he knew was that he had unwittingly become the one who caused chaos on the Terra once again.

Chapter 142: Chen Qi: You insist on elevating my drama to a higher level, right?

How Eureka's farce ultimately ended was unknown to Chen Qi and his group, who were far away in Londinium. However, Chen Qi still sincerely hoped that Eureka could land safely. But judging from the current series of events, the scale of this farce in Kazimierz has far exceeded everyone's expectations—including the eight dukes.

Originally, the eight dukes' plan was simply to send spies into Kazimierz to stir up public opinion, expose the dirty secrets of the Commercial Federation and the National Assembly, and create chaos within Kazimierz.

After all, it's impossible for Commercial Federation to be completely clean, and Victoria knows that very well. Anyone who's in business and makes a lot of money would be a miracle if they had a clean record.

Therefore, with a thorough investigation, they will definitely be able to find out. And even if they really can't find out, they have already instructed their spies to carry out the exposure of the financial darkness in episode four of "Yes, Prime Minister" in Kazimierz.

Unexpectedly, their spies went to great lengths this time, not only expanding the influence of "Yes, Prime Minister," but also releasing evidence of collusion Commercial Federation and the National Assembly.

However, they were also quite bewildered when they learned about the disappearance of the Nearl Family couple.

What? There was an unexpected bonus?

When the eight dukes received this news, they looked at each other in bewilderment during their meeting. None of them knew which spy had discovered such important inside information.

However, when they exchanged messages, they discovered that this information did not seem to have been discovered by any of their spies.

That's really strange. How could such important information be leaked? Could it be that some civil servant "intentionally or accidentally" leaked this kind of information?

However, while the eight dukes were scratching their heads, it was Chen Qi's crew who got the answer first, and the person who guessed the answer was Młynar.

"... Perhaps it was done by the Black Knight." Młynar glanced at the contents of the newspaper in his hand, speculating as he spoke calmly.

"I released her in the Grand Knight's Dominion back then, and she was being hunted down by the Commercial Federation, while the Supervision Committee ignored her plight. Therefore, she harbors hatred for Kazimierz, and only she has the reason and the ability to do such a thing."

"After winning three consecutive championships in the tournament, Jian was invited by Silvermane Knights. Although she declined, she left a deep impression on several of Silvermane Knights's colleagues."

"This matter was probably done by her, using some means, in conjunction with some Silvermane Knights who were extremely curious about the things that happened to the Nearl Family back then."

"Only those people will continue to believe in the Nearl Family... It's laughable, but they're even more convinced of the Nearl Family's innocence than the Nearl Family themselves."

As Młynar spoke, he continued to look at the newspaper in his hand. However, when he saw the photos in the newspaper, showing so many commoners and knights, whether they were Competition Knight or Campaign Knight, questioning the Supervision Committee about the Nearl Family, a helpless smile appeared on his usually calm face.

"Thank you, Director Chen Qi."

"Hmm?" Chen Qi didn't know why Młynar suddenly thanked him, and Młynar explained:

"Although I know that my brother and Supervision Committee inevitably connected to the witnesses, now that everything is public, the chances of me bringing them back are much greater. As long as they are alive, they will find out about what happened in Kazimierz today sooner or later."

"At that time, Margaret and Maria will have a better chance of meeting their parents... For that, I will continue to do my part on set until that day comes."

"--The Art Troupe has always welcomed a talent like yours, Mr. Młynar."

Chen Qi hadn't expected that this incident would lead Młynar to decide to stay on set for an extended period. However, this time, compared to Vina, Chen Qi's attitude towards Młynar's arrival was much clearer—because his uncle was powerful!

With his uncle's help, the Art Troupe is now so powerful that they wouldn't even be afraid of running into two teams of Silvermane Knights. Chen Qi and his crew now truly have the strength to roam freely on the Terra.
