Chapter 107 The princess will ask you
"Although the royal family has no actual power, it still represents the image of Sokowaiia internationally and is deeply loved by domestic people. Since you enjoy the benefits of the royal family's terms, you should fulfill your obligations and maintain a good image internationally and in the hearts of the people at home." Alfred was not moved by her.
Although the Sokowi royal family does not enjoy actual power, they can still obtain a large amount of royal preferential funds from the government every year and enjoy the status of head of state internationally, which makes Silvi unable to act willfully according to his own ideas.
"Anyway, I just need to play the role of a mascot and let the people in the country like me, right?" Silvi still refused to give up. "According to the feedback from the Internet, since my photo with giant panda was released, the people's approval rating for the royal family has increased by five percentage points. I think if they learned that I became friends with this panda, the approval rating will continue to rise."
After all, Princess Silvi received excellent education and she quickly fought back based on the actual situation. You said I should maintain a good image. So since my contact with Panda greatly improved the image of the royal family in the hearts of the people, why do you still stop me?
"Uh, this..." What she said made sense. I was speechless. Alfred didn't know what to say.
"You see, during the referendum in Scotland, there were two pandas given to the British government by the Chinese government in the Edinburgh Zoo. Once the referendum was established, the two pandas would be moved to the UK. The Scottish people responded fiercely, threatening to 'We can take away our freedom, not our pandas'; and when the United States and China had conflicts, the Americans even said that it was possible to break off diplomatic relations, and the pandas would never be returned." Princess Silvi also gave several examples.
"It can be seen from this that the status of pandas in the hearts of the people and how much they like this cute creature. So why not take advantage of this rare opportunity to use pandas to continue to enhance my image in the hearts of the people of Sokowai? I think the people of Sokowai must prefer me as a panda keeper rather than a hypocritical philanthropist who goes to Africa to make a show?"
"So I came here not only because of my personal preference, but also because of the image of the Sokovian royal family." Princess Silvi said seriously, "If you are not sure, you can hand over these two plans to the royal image consulting team for consultation. I believe their opinions must be inclined to panda keepers."
"Your Highness, you can see that you are very attentive in your studies at Cambridge University." It was just his willfulness, but by Silvey's words, it was simply a perfect political means. Alfred felt that this matter had exceeded his authority to deal with it. "I think I need to communicate with the country."
After saying that, Alfred took the phone to the balcony, and Sylvie, who was staying in the restaurant, showed a smug smile. She secretly picked up a piece of bamboo shoot and fed it into her mouth. She could see pandas every day, and such delicious food, which was much more comfortable than life in the palace.
Alfred made the phone call for more than an hour. The relevant departments of the Sokovian royal family held an emergency meeting to negotiate on this. The king and the queen would be concerned about Sylvi's safety, but the image consulting team expressed strong interest in Princess Sylvi's proposal.
They took out complicated forms and tried their best to explain to other participants the lofty status of pandas in the hearts of the general public, especially the photo of Princess Silvi and Haer shaking hands. Since the photo was released, the royal family's approval rating has been rising.
They also took out many photos to prove the popularity of pandas, such as the crowded streets of the pandas when they arrived in the UK, the luxurious new panda hall in the Netherlands, the terrifying global box office of Kung Fu Panda, and the surge in the number of fans on Princess Silvi’s social software.
These data and photos prove that raising pandas in Chen Yibin’s pet store is definitely a greater effect on the royal family than going to a charity as a guise. As for Princess Silvi’s safety, there is no need to worry about Chen Yibin’s information. They have already checked clearly.
"My gentlemen, Mr. Chen received a huge sum of more than 3 million euros not long ago, but he donated the huge sum to the giant panda base without any hesitation. This shows that Mr. Chen will never do anything unfavorable to the princess for being attracted by money. In addition, the public security situation in Yunzhong City has always been good. There are police stations outside Mr. Chen's store, so we don't have to worry too much about the princess' safety." This time, even the last little concern was dispelled.
"But, what if something happens to Silvi and this Mr. Shen?" The queen asked a new question.
"We found that Mr. Chen seems to be slow in the issue of love. There are several very beautiful girls around him, but he does not seem to have any plans to go further with the other party, so there is no need to worry about this issue." The consulting team explained.
Of course, if something really happens, they will be happy to see it happen. Now it is no longer an era where the royal family is superior. Royal members from Denmark, Sweden, Britain and other countries have experienced marriage with civilians, and have brought their relationships closer to ordinary people and gained higher support.
Besides, this panda is Chen Yibin’s personal. If he married the princess, wouldn’t this panda become Sokovia? Is it possible to trade a princess for a panda?
So after a fierce discussion, the Sokovian royal family finally agreed to Silvi's opinion, allowing her to change her internship location from a charity to Shen Yibin's shop, and immediately began to promote the incident. The focus of the publicity was of course the civilian image of Panda and Princess Silvi.
"Your Highness, the royal family has agreed to your choice." The helpless Alfred told Sylvie helplessly, "I will stay in Yunzhong City to take care of your life."
"A pet store employee follows the royal housekeeper every day? What does this look like? You can stay in Yunzhong City, but please don't interfere with my work and life." Silwei insisted.
After a long fight, Alfred made a concession again and agreed to the princess' request.
