Chapter 367: Death Does Not Belong to Communism

The second more

Death does not belong to communism.

This is the slogan of a new round of public opinion war launched by the Soviet Propaganda Department, which points the knife at the public opinion propaganda of the Americans. Compared with the U.S. Intelligence Agency, which covered up its traces but was pervasive, the Soviet Union, which was more focused on public opinion, chose to call out this expert in public opinion warfare.

George Cannan, one of the architects of the Cold War, was the CIA, the CIA's strategic propaganda agency, but he preferred to use the nice word "Department of Culture" to describe the CIA, saying something like, "The United States does not have a Department of Culture, and the CIA has a responsibility to fill the void." ”

Unlike the United States, the Soviet Union chose a deliberate propaganda approach in terms of propaganda, which was to let everyone see that this was the society under Soviet propaganda, and it was also the real society they saw. Beginning in 1991, the Soviet Union contrasted Moscow in its most difficult period with Moscow, which is now prosperous.

"In the winter of 1991, there was a depression on the streets, and almost all the shops were closed. It was an unfortunate year, as the failed policies of the economy led to a massive recession in the Soviet Union. The poorly fed people had to queue up in front of the bakery, because they were no longer able to supply enough food to the citizens of Moscow......"

This is the beginning of a documentary, Surkov does not shy away from the political turmoil and lack of supplies in 1991, he shows them the social landscape of the Soviet Union at that time, the citizens with lost faces, the red flags fluttering in the cold wind, as if to herald a major catastrophe is coming.

In previous times, such a tactic was tantamount to discrediting the image of the Soviet government. However, the State Propaganda Department personally supervised the production of the film and provided the material. gave the director of the documentary the courage to continue filming. Surkov assured him that he must restore the real Soviet Union, not the false world that the government wanted to see in the propaganda department.

Next is the tragic pineapple's turmoil in the Three Kingdoms of the Sea, angry crowds, and the suppression of armored vehicles, the director focused on the helplessness of the soldiers and the clips of protecting innocent people, although it was not clearly pointed out who was right and who was wrong, but through the film, it can be found that the director gave more clips and ink points to the soldiers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs who bravely protected the people.

The bloodshed of the war in Chechnya is often associated with the hostage incident in Beslan. Through the close-up of the eyes of those terrified and innocent children, the hatred for the religious elements was inadvertently deepened, and then the suppression of the Chechen war, when the whistling of rocket death fell on the enemy's head, everyone could not help but cheer and cheer.

In terms of battlefield performance, Surkov also specially created some false shots, such as the soldiers of the 9th Company, who were about to be surrounded by the enemy, pulled the firing pin of the grenade and died with the enemy before dying. For example, ordering the Hind helicopter to fire at the position, and working with the enemy to eliminate the commander under the bullet, sensationalism can often attract more tears, and at the same time, it can subtly achieve your desired goal.

Next is the economic construction of the past few years. Surkov specifically chose three cities, Leningrad. In contrast to the development of Moscow and Volgograd, from the recession of 1991 to the catch-up of 1995, Yanayev achieved in only four years what a Go-like fool could not achieve in a lifetime, so that the giant ship of the Soviet Union continued to move forward on the road to revival.

The documentary was shown in the dimly lit screening room, and when the subtitles were dropped, Surkov finally breathed a sigh of relief, this documentary is a perfect record of the entire process of the Soviet Union from decline to rise, although the gloomy tone in front of it is contrary to the core value system of socialism, but the final flourishing finishing touch made Surkov's documentary written by himself won unanimous praise.

"Death Is Not Communism" is a new round of tactics against America's protracted propaganda war. The Propaganda Department of the USSR was on the alert more than ever. Because it is useless for this propaganda film to say that it is good, it must be satisfied by the people. If even their own people can't take it, then the Soviet Propaganda Department can choose to dissolve it on the spot.

When the documentary was shown in Moscow cinemas, Surkov made a special trip to the theater where it was released, hoping to hear the voices of the people, not just the rave reviews that he did not know whether they were true or not.

The lights in the cinema were dim, everyone was staring intently at the faint light on the screen, and the documentary had just been released in the cinema, and it was packed, and everyone was as curious about the development of the past few years as they were about the top-secret archives of the KGB, and the people wanted to know how the halfway chairman had gone through the cruel life of nearly five years.

Surkov's patronage of the cinema was completely secret, and the cinema side was completely unaware of the arrival of the propaganda minister, so the crowd sitting next to Surkov was real and not an extra.

Surkov carefully observed everyone's expressions and demeanors, their earnest and reverent gaze as if they were believers looking up to the Lord, attentive and intently watching what was happening on the screen. In addition to the whispers of the depressed scene at the beginning of the movie, the crowd was completely quiet, and the emotions were brought into the world of the movie, some people sighed softly, and retired veterans quietly wiped the tears from the corners of their eyes when they saw the scene in Chechnya.

The Russian nation is a talented artist who is good at creating tragedy or stirring passion, just like Surkov's extensive quotation of flat and low tunes in the film, which brought the audience to tears of emotion, and after nearly forty minutes of tragedy, the second half of the film begins to gradually enter the plot of the great revival, telling the painful process of the Soviet Union from decline to rise.

Seeing this scene, the gray cardinal, who was sitting in the corner of the cinema, finally smiled, knowing that this was a very successful documentary, singing the clarion call of the war of public opinion in the Soviet Union.

"General Secretary Yanayev, this time, we will definitely win." Sulkov smiled and muttered to himself, he did not continue watching, but chose to walk out of the cinema, because there was more important task for Surkov to complete.

When the subtitles of the movie fell, the audience who had thought they would leave did not disperse, and when the first person came back to his senses from the atmosphere of the movie, he stood up and began to applaud, and the people around him also stood up and paid the highest respect to the documentary.
