Chapter 430 Overestimating One's Own Abilities

Vienna, Lion's Pride Hotel.

Solomon Rothschild was very annoyed, not only because the troupe's signboard was poached, after all, if he could support one, he could support the second one.

With the strength of the Rothschild family, even letting a castrated boar become a beauty contest lady would not be a problem.

But this "Mr. K" is a difficult character. He can defeat one pole of Vienna's underground forces at lightning speed, which is not something that ordinary people can do.

You must know that the Winster family has been operating in Bohemia for many years, and its power is intertwined. Even the Austrian Imperial Government wants to move such a behemoth. It is not easy, and even Solomon Rothschild dare not mess around in Prague.

However, meeting Archduke Albrecht can only be said to be unlucky for Winster. After all, it is natural for the "master" to teach the "slave". The only family in Austria that can clean it up so thoroughly is Archduke Karl.

What's even more unfortunate is that Archduke Albrecht was also a good general with a bad temper. It is said that the artillery fire lasted for a whole day, and in the end, not even a mouse was spared.

Thinking of this, Solomon couldn't help but laugh contemptuously.

"Why do some people always not know their own weight? They dare to challenge the royal family members who hold heavy troops. They are really overestimating their own abilities."

At that time, there were many military reporters in Albrecht's army. They recorded the last words of Winster before his death, "Do you want to go to war?"

This sentence was originally full of arrogance and stupidity. With the exaggeration of those military reporters, Winster, the tyrant, looked as ridiculous as the clown.

Moreover, these military reporters were arranged by Franz. Their purpose was to beautify this action. Many times, even when fighting against crime, we must pay attention to our image, otherwise we may become the target of public opinion attacks like Batman.

One of the biggest unstable factors in Vienna at this time was that there were too many college students who couldn't find jobs. The background and knowledge of most of them could not help them become officials.

In addition to the drawbacks of Austria's own system of granting official positions, even if the examination system has been adopted in some departments and units (such as the Prime Minister's Office, the Central Bank, etc.), there are still a large number of people who are dissatisfied with it.

Franz had also adopted the teaching method before, but most of the college students who stayed in Vienna were arrogant. They disdained to teach children, and even more disdained the low salary. Even if it tripled, it was still lower than the income in Vienna.

And at that time, Vienna's infrastructure construction was indeed the best in Austria, even Milan and Prague could not compare with it.

So Franz turned his attention to the media and entertainment industry, and journalists were one of the professions he arranged for these arrogant people.

"If you can't stop the war, then tell the truth to the world." However, those who can really become war correspondents have been screened through layers, and they must be absolutely loyal to the Austrian Empire and the Habsburg royal family.

As for what they write, of course, it can only and must be what Franz wants.

Those who are dishonest or too straightforward, Franz thinks they can be arranged to work abroad.

The rest can also be made paparazzi. That's right, while building momentum for his own side, he was frantically smearing his opponent.

Although it is said that the loudest voice is not the most reasonable, in the 19th century when people's quality was generally low, the loudest voice would definitely have more advantages.

Vienna was originally a consumer city, so Franz was very optimistic about its tertiary industry.

Although he had no choice but to do this, Franz had actually done an investigation before that and considered the feasibility of the entire plan, so he made a promise.

That day, Franz was blocked in the box by four principal dancers. He glanced at his captain of the guard, Colonel Bordeaux. The latter gave Franz a look that he understood, then quickly left the room and locked the door.

Franz could only bite the bullet and talk to them about life and his plans.

They were also smart people and quickly understood what Franz meant.

This was the first time in their lives that they had been honest with others, because Franz showed enough sincerity and enough power to convince people.

Although Franz claimed to help them escape from suffering and embark on a glorious life, what he actually signed was the same "indenture" as Korean entertainment.

Whether this contract will become an indenture depends on Franz's attitude and their performance.

The reason why Franz did this is that he did not want to see a situation where "no one cares about the general's withered bones, but the world knows the family affairs of the actors".

Moreover, idols are something that people need in any era. It can be negative, of course, it can also be positive. It depends on the person and the environment, as well as whether there is external interference.

Back to the point, Solomon did not know the purpose of this "Mr. K". Did he come to Vienna to share a piece of the pie, or did he want to eat the whole pie for himself?

This is what Solomon cares about. After all, only by knowing the other party's purpose can we make the best response, whether to accept him as a dog, or to join forces, or to join others to eradicate him.

But the problem is that this "Mr. K" seems to have a great background, because he lives in the mansion of Archduke Karl, which makes ordinary people dare not approach to investigate.

Come to think of it, if he didn't have a close relationship with Archduke Karl's family, how could he have invited someone like Archduke Albrecht?

After all, the commander of the Vienna City Defense Army did not care about anything other than military affairs. Like his father, he did not care about the family accounts at all, and the money was managed by dozens of housekeepers.

The direct impact of leading troops to wipe out the Winster family this time was that many of the properties of Archduke Karl's family that were not very profitable or had losses suddenly became very profitable.

It is said that the old housekeeper who had not left the Archduke's mansion for decades also went out not long ago, and his purpose was most likely to check the accounts in various places.

With the financial resources and influence of Archduke Karl's family, it would be too easy to punish a few housekeepers who embezzled family property. Even if they were beaten to death, the local government would most likely turn a blind eye.

In fact, the old housekeeper went to Switzerland with Archduke Karl, so those who frantically paid the money were actually busy in vain.

And because of Albrecht's commotion, the entire Austrian aristocratic circle has restrained itself.

After all, what Franz publicized in the newspaper was not that Winster sent people to follow the royal family with bad intentions, but that Winster's behavior caused public outrage and openly opposed the royal family with the intention of rebellion and treason, and Albrecht was just executing justice.

However, in the eyes of those nobles who usually do evil, these contents seem to be a warning to themselves.

Solomon actually didn't think that "Mr. K" could revitalize Winster's industry. After all, he lacked talented screenwriters and operators familiar with related industries.

Franz's approach was to let them manage themselves. As for screenwriters, he would help when he was bored. After all, as a man, he knew what men wanted to see.
