Daydream Theatre

My impulse did not bring any benefit to the program team, but whether it was the director, producer, editor or editor, they did not complain to me. After all, my starting point was good.

However, even though we did not welcome the Miss Tomoko, we were still able to continue the program. But as expected, Moloch would send a "no suitable participants" selection report every week, allowing us to have nothing to do in the empty theater.

This was obviously what Moloch was happy to see, and what made me even more angry was that the other side's' Robot Theater 'was getting more and more popular, with Access Rate s innovating repeatedly. If this is the charm of their program itself, I have nothing to say, but the Robotics Theatre is no doubt a shameless reproduction of the model of the Daydream Theatre.

"Shameless!" Director Andy read the Access Rate's report while patting the table, "Shameless!"

"Yeah, they completely learned our program's model, other than the lack of Time Capsule as a prop … Maybe before long, we will even give in to the Time Capsule! "

"They have added many live broadcasters, and each live broadcaster is at a different distance from Miss Tomoko. Ordinary users can only watch the show from a distance, while VIP users can only get close to Miss Tomoko."

"Most importantly, they even broadcast the program that was originally being recorded live. To the audience, of course, the live broadcast was more intuitive and exciting, while the recording could be edited afterwards. There is no doubt that the live broadcast format is the biggest feature of our 'Daydream Theatre' and the audience, but it no longer exists! "

"The program's content is almost the same as ours! The purpose of our program is to help people achieve their dreams, but in the latest robotic program... As long as he completed the mission, he would be able to coexist with the Miss Tomoko for a day! Isn't this naked plagiarism? "

"Yeah, the Robot Theater was originally a closed program and no one came to watch it. But now, they have actually learnt our way of doing things. Every episode will choose five people from the audience to participate in the program, which greatly increases the enthusiasm of the audience. After all, everyone probably wants to stay together with Miss Tomoko for a while longer, right? "

Of course, there were also many other details … Everyone was talking at once. It was obvious that I was the one responsible for the consequences.

If I didn't divulge all the details of the program to Moro, I'm afraid that Moloch and the rest wouldn't have followed through with the method of a daydream theater. Furthermore, Mr Eloi has told us that Moloch has been actively contacting the experts in the Castari recently. Maybe in the future, our Time Capsule will also be taken away by Moloch. If that's the case, our program will truly become an empty shell.

Ah … However, I think that my previous idea was not bad. If our program had a beautiful person like the Miss Tomoko to host it, maybe the number of Access Rate in our program would have increased greatly.

It was as if I could see the Miss Jiang secretly laughing at my face. I was completely tricked by them and fell into the "beautiful" trap. It's fortunate that I'm not a core member of the program team, otherwise I might reveal even more secrets, such as my Castari's contact details and so on.

"Director, I have an idea!" I was about to speak, but everyone heard my voice and looked as if they could no longer trust my words. "I mean, I have an opinion."

"Tell me about it. Actually, your previous thoughts were very good, but …" The director didn't know how to put in a good word for me.

"The recent situation isn't stable," I said, scratching my head. "I wonder if everyone is paying attention to the latest news?"

"You mean some social instability?"

"No, no, not just that. You have to look at it from a macro perspective. I organized some news, and you guys can take a look... " I have distributed some information to everyone, and I have made these preparations in advance in order to recover the damage I have caused.

The data take from recent reports of negative news, in natural disasters, such as the once-in-a-decade flood, the accelerated melting of the Arctic ice, typhoons ravaging the coastal areas, and so on. And there were also a number of crimes: dozens of famous paintings stolen from the Louvre, three visits a day by thieves from the Bank of California, reappearance of homicides on the mainland seven years later, and so on. There is, of course, the so-called turmoil: the biggest debate between the two parties in recent times, the inability of the Snowe regime to lift people out of poverty, the anti-Castari movement of the leading socialists, and so on.

"I don't know if there are any coincidences behind this, but the problem has erupted in the near future — in about a month or two." I frowned and said, "This is surprising because, as far as natural disasters are concerned, our prediction of the weather has always been quite accurate, but there have been major recent errors. In the area of public security, we have a teacher who has been created according to everyone's physiological and psychological characteristics. It can be said that in the past decade, our criminal offences have basically gone extinct … Furthermore, what is even weirder is that the Castari have not been doing much lately, but the public still need to fork out the money to support this group of astute scholars, so I think it is understandable for these so-called famous people to instigate the anti-Castari movement. "

"This should be a coincidence, it's just that bad things happen within a certain period of time," Zhang Xuan did not think much of it, "Although our society is advanced — and I am not ashamed to say it this way — it is still unable to stop every disaster and atrocities. Furthermore, the advancement of technology is not something that can be accomplished overnight, so we cannot place all our hopes on Castari. They did come up with vast amounts of technology, but maybe they also got stuck in a bottleneck. "

"Coincidence or not, I don't want to change the situation, I don't have the ability to do so," I sighed. "I mean we might be able to change the focus of the show from fulfilling people's dreams to... to cover the story behind these social changes. "

Everyone thought for a while, and then the Director Andy asked, "In our little crew's opinion, I'm afraid we won't be able to find out the reason behind all this. "So what do you mean by that story?"

"I mean, these social changes... Every little person in the process of change, their inner changes, what they think, their advice to society and the pain they endure. I don't think that goes against the original purpose of our show — to show humanity. However, we will be removing the high-tech parts. I think if we were to create them in this direction, there would be no need for the Time Capsule. "

I heard the director's applause: "I think this idea is a little interesting, but if the sudden outbreak of these bad things is a coincidence... Very soon, the world would be peaceful and peaceful. How else can we report the pain people suffer from it? They wouldn't have any suggestions for social reform, would they? "

"That's right!" The two original jury members were also laughing at me. "It won't be long before people come out of their misery! People wanted to see the Miss Moro Tomoko, why would they care about any social issues? In their opinion, the Miss Tomoko is more humane than humans! "

I shook my head disdainfully. "It is precisely because of these 'anti-human' ideas that our society has to support an independent, dangerous organization. It is to kneel and beg them to give us some scientific progress. "But he's been wasting his life in the virtual world!"

Even though everyone understands what I mean, but for now, the most important thing is for us to think of a new direction for the development of the program. We don't want Moloch to lead us by the nose.

"I will think about it," the director finally decided, "This is a pretty good direction, but from my many years in the industry, this kind of program has too high of a overlap with normal news programs, Access Rate might... You have to understand that this is a situation where Access Rate is the king. Without the Access Rate, our program wouldn't be able to live for long. "

I returned sadly to my own place, and it seemed that none of my ideas would ever come true. Ironically, as a program host who aimed to realize the dreams of ordinary people, he was unable to even implement his own thoughts …

However, in this difficult time, Balance Bureau was still diligently doing his own work. And now, they were naturally aware of this — — The balance between and the Eloi had been broken, even though the "Daydream Theater" was originally a small program.

Thus, Committee Member Cai appeared in front of us once more. He held a holographic sphere, and there might be some important documents inside.

He smiled and said to the Director Andy: "This time, Moloch has finally approved. You know, according to our new rules, they can't reject the selection of participants seven times in a row, so this show can really start over. "

In fact, only they themselves know why the rules set by the Balanced and Harmonious Bureau are so, but there is no other way. They are the government in power, even though we all believe that the entire political-centered regime will disappear within twenty years. The future belonged to the super corporations. Whoever had control over the core technology would have all the power.

"So who is the eighth person?" It was obvious from this lazy tone that Andy did not have high expectations for it.

"Hur hur, let us take a look." He opened the holographic sphere and we saw an extremely ordinary woman in her thirties wearing simple clothes and a pair of black-rimmed glasses (which was obviously a retro decoration). She looked anxious.

"Has it begun?" Her voice was featureless, too.

"Hello, welcome to deliver your resume to Eloi Film And Television Company's' Daydream Theatre '. Please make a brief self-introduction. "

"Ah, I …" She slightly straightened her clothes, and then rearranged her hair. It was obvious that she did not like to dress up, as her hair was scattered all over her shoulders. "My name is White Dale, from …"

Her introduction made me drowsy.

"Thank you. According to your judgement, you have completed your self-introduction. Due to the special nature of the program, please give a brief description of the reason why you wish to use 'Time Capsule'. "

"I …" She was extremely nervous as she kept stroking her hair. "My mother has arteriosclerosis, and she's already very old …"

Arteriosclerosis? Old? Could it be that she wanted to use Time Capsule …

"I love my mother a lot," she said, straightening her posture and leaning closer to the camera, we could almost see the hairs on her face, "The purpose of using Time Capsule is to be able to spend more time with my mother. Yes, that's what I thought. I could spend a little more time with my mother. "

"What?" I blurted out, It seems to me that no matter what arteriosclerosis or old age, it doesn't stop me from being with my mother, even though there are still a lot of people dying of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease every year, but... So he had to use the Time Capsule, this precious thing?

"Thank you. According to my judgement, you have finished …"

"Wait!" She seemed to want to add something else, "You …" You may have questions, but why must I use Time Capsule s in order to spend more time with my mother? Because, because … Because I have already received my Castari admittance certificate, yes, I will be leaving for Castari immediately, so I don't have time … "

"So that's how it is," I thought. "Once I enter the Castari, I'll be almost cut off from the rest of the world. As far as I know, they set up a family visit once a year for three days, but almost... Almost no one has ever used it. " Maybe because life in the Castari was too unfathomable, no one wanted to step foot into the mediocre world anymore.

But... But even so, this ordinary-looking lady who was about to enter Castari … No matter what strange reason … Do you want our program to do a lot of live broadcasts... Was the live broadcast about how happy she and her mother were in the Time Field?

The director and I looked at each other, but no one said a word.

"Thank you. According to your judgement, you have completed a brief description of the matter. Eloi Company will reply to you within three days, please continue to pay attention to Eloi Company's programs … "

"Okay, thanks!" There was a look of relief on her face, as if the story had not been easy for her.

This was the content of the holographic sphere.

"That's great!" The Committee Member Cai clapped his hands, I thought that perhaps only he would think that this girl was very beautiful, "It's so good! In our time, isn't it precisely the lack of real, touching motherhood, fatherhood? Director Andy, please do your best! "

"Of course, of course." Andy trembled as he received the holographic sphere, "We will definitely do an extremely touching program and will not disappoint the expectations of our Balance Bureau."

What else can we say? Although it was definitely an extremely boring program, the Access Rate still wouldn't … Is it zero?

I recalled Tomoko's words: "The value of the usage is basically zero."

I am to blame for my current predicament! I secretly made up my mind that I would definitely turn this happy match between mother and daughter into … It created a massive phenomenal program that reflected on human nature, the times, and society!

Hehe … Of course I was imagining things.
