Alfonso XII has no way of knowing the situation on the German side, but it is conceivable that they were shocked when they saw the ESP1875.

Alfonso was even thinking whether the Krupp Group, which has been coaxing for so many years, would doubt itself. After all, the cannon, which has always been one of the fist industries, has been beaten in all directions...

At this time, the top priority for Alfonso XII is naturally the newspaper that claims to be the mouth of the government.

Although newspapers are outdated in the 21st century, they are new for the 19th century.

The first newspaper in Spain was the Pioneer newspaper in Catalonia, founded by the Godot family in 1881.

Although the Herald has a long history, it has always been published in Catalonia, and its influence is not very large.

In Spain in 1875, the public opinion environment was still occupied by various small newspapers.

How powerful is public opinion, I believe any young men and women in the 21st century have seen it. Public opinion can turn black and white, put people to death, and help an ordinary person become a hero in an instant.

In the 19th century, however, no one cared about the way of public opinion dissemination. People didn't realize the importance of public opinion, so they let it go.

And the Spanish Royal Press Co., Ltd., which was established a few days ago, is the tool that Alfonso is trying to master this weapon.

Misty May Trino, as a young man who was personally appointed by His Majesty the King as the editor-in-chief of the newspaper a week ago, will bring the first newspaper he designed to the Royal Palace and the King today to report the results.

Misti used to be the owner of a newspaper in Seville. With his good mind and good relationship with local officials in Seville, he was able to sit on the status of the industry leader in Seville in just a few years.

Alfonso took a fancy to his operational talent, so he gave him the mouthpiece of Spain in the future.

Misti was a little nervous. Although he was said to be the boss of Seville's largest newspaper before, the highest level of contact was nothing more than the mayor.

Today, what he wants to see is King Alfonso XII of Spain, the supreme ruler of the Kingdom of Spain, and he is well aware of the responsibilities he is taking now.

The entourage of the palace found him and said: "The king's original words are, if Spain is a giant, and I will invite you to be the mouthpiece of the giant, you will speak for us."

He was going crazy with excitement, no matter the literal meaning or the actual meaning, it made him shudder with excitement, which meant that he would become one of the few upper-class people in Spain.

And today he has come to the Royal Palace of Madrid with his latest newspaper.

"Lord Howard, this is the newspaper requested by Your Majesty."

Misty respectfully stretched out his hand and handed over his hard work over the past few days.

Howard took it gently, this is his usual style.

"Then wait a moment, His Majesty is handling official business in the conference room. Please wait in the living room first."

Howard nodded, instructed the attendant to take Misty to the living room, and then went to the conference room and knocked on the door.

"Come in." Alfonso's voice came from inside.

"Your Majesty, you ordered the newspaper company Misty to make the newspaper. Now he has finished making the newspaper and brought it over to show you."

Howard remained expressionless and soft-spoken.

"Where is the other person? Tell him to come to see me in the conference room, I want to talk to him and hear what he thinks"

Alfonso glanced at the boldface Le Monde font on the newspaper and fell into thought.

A few minutes later, Misty had come to him, "Good morning, Your Majesty the King."

Misty, who saw the king for the first time, was quite excited. Although there are countless people who support the republic, anarchism, etc., this does not include Misty.

As a vested interest in the existence of the king, he has no reason to object.

"Mr. Misty, good morning, hard work, I didn't expect you to design a template for a newspaper so quickly."

Alfonso smiled, the person in front of him was also a rare talent.

"Thanks to His Majesty the King for his compliment. Please see if His Majesty's newspaper is satisfied and whether it needs to be revised." Misty replied that he now wanted to show himself in front of the King to ensure his work.

"Very good, can you tell me what you expect from this newspaper?"

Alfonso originally thought that he would name the newspaper Spanish XX, but he didn't expect it to be the name of Le Monde in the end.

"Your Majesty, I think Spain, a major power in the world, should not be confined to Spain, but should have its own influence all over the world.

I define the slogan of Le Monde: to look at the world, maintain quality, and be fair and just.

I hope that I will also work hard to make it the biggest voice in the world. "

Misty finished his slogan and vision passionately, with a long-term goal, which was very much in line with Alfonso's taste.

But it's useless just to match the taste. Alfonso naturally knows that there is no such newspaper in the world that can really achieve this step.

"The significance of Le Monde should be to express Spain's voice to the world. UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com explains our policy from a positive perspective at home, and in the face of our enemy, we want to discredit him in Spain."

King Alfonso XII said in a deep voice that he invested in newspapers not to fulfill his personal ideals, but to master the weapons of public opinion.

"This is natural, Your Majesty. I deeply know how much influence public opinion will have on the people. Maintaining the image of His Majesty the King and the interests of Spain is our biggest goal."

Misty said directly, he is not an idealist who doesn't understand anything.

"Very good, then make Le Monde the official Spanish newspaper. You need to recruit editors from the country at a faster rate, so that Le Monde will be published as soon as possible."

Naturally, the sooner public opinion is in control, the better, and the responsibility will change later.

"Your Majesty, your subordinates in Seville can be directly summoned to work in Madrid. The printing factory needs to be arranged by His Majesty."

Alfonso rubbed his brows and turned to greet Howard.

"Are there any capable people who can do this and help popularize the newspaper as soon as possible."

Howard was expressionless, and wriggled his lower lip.

"The former mayor of Madrid, Count Heredia Spinola, may be able to do this. He is a person who has no desires, but eats everywhere. He is the most suitable for it."

"It's him." Alfonso waved his hand, motioning them to go out.

The long hours of work have made him a little uncomfortable, and now he is a little distracted.

This has to be taken seriously by Alfonso. After all, Alfonso in history did indeed die when he was less than 30 years old.

As the only monarch in Spain in the 19th century, it is indeed a pity.

"The Imperial Physician..."
