Taiwan’s ‘Zero Day Attack’ Is a Model of Preparing the Public to Fight

Imagine a fleet of Chinese ships that suddenly appeared in the Taiwan Strait, in charge of searching all the ships traveling across the crowded road – including on the Taiwanese side. Or a Chinese fighter plane crashed from the Taiwanese coast and Chinese warships that prevent the island to search for.

One of these events actually happened, and the other is part of a new Taiwanese TV program, but the events seem to be real. “A Chinese Y-8 reconnaissance plane entered the South China Sea at 10 am today and crashed into the Pacific Ocean, directly off the eastern coast in Taiwan.

This is how it begins Zero Day attackThat began to broadcast in Taiwan this month. In addition to providing entertainment, the goal of the offer is to warn Taiwanese from Chinese intervention on a large scale. With the threats of China and Russia waving on the horizon, such stories are needed to be further than Taiwan.

Bad Taiwan does not end with the siege. The search and rescue process in the People’s Liberation Army turns into a Taiwan, whether in water or in the air. (Such operations will be easy for China, which in real life has the largest sea fleet in the world, whose air forces were going through a great modernity and expansion.) It is frightening, and Taiwan needs imports and exports to survive, but the Taiwanese continue their lives.

Then Chinese military vehicles appear in the streets. Then the Internet begins. (You cannot believe one of the influencers in the middle of recording a video that it was cut.) Then, with the collapse of the Internet, the financial system collapses. Angry residents cannot use credit cards or make smart phone payments, and ATMs cannot dispense with cash. Pirate attacks follow the infrastructure, as well as sabotage. Life becomes very stressful. The outgoing president is about to succeed by the winner of the recent presidential elections, he records a message to the nation: “Without freedom, Taiwan is not Taiwan.” Those around it, the attacks continue to grow, in diversity and intensity.

Zero Day attack It is a convincing TV. The trailer has been monitored 2.5 million times. The show, which was first shown in Taiwan on August 2, is 10 episodes, and although it may be a great TV for anyone who can watch the series outside Taiwan, for the Taiwan themselves, the story is scary.

In 2023, immediately after the Speaker of the House of Representatives hosted at the time Kevin McCarthy in California, Beijing sent the inspection fleet to the Taiwan Strait. The message was unambiguously clear: China can decide to examine nearly 240 ships that pass every day; If this happens, the huge delays will result in it and the charging methods will be changed to avoid the strait. Taiwan will be cut.

Of course, the inspection fleet is not the only aggressive act that Taiwan had to carry in recent years. There were campaigns of misinformation, election interference, electronic attacks, and sudden bonds of Taiwanese food exports. When China suddenly suspended the imports of Taiwanese pineapple, the #FreedombeApple campaign sought to alleviate the effects of the Chinese ban.

There were many suspicious cable discounts. In February 2023, Chinese merchant ships cut the two lines that connect Matsu Islands with the rest of Taiwan. In February, the Taiwanese Coast Guard caught a Chinese ship in the process of cutting another Taiwanese cable.

Most Taiwanese realize that their country is at risk, but the government, which the Ministry of Culture helped to finance Zero Day attackIt is believed that the audience needs to be reminded-including the fact that the damage may not stop when cutting cables and electronic attacks. (It is a sign of the times that Taiwan’s Chungwa Telecom also contributed to financing: Chungwa has cables damaged by Chinese ships.)

Taiwan on the front lines, but other countries can benefit from such Edutainment. The last time that the West witnessed a group of Ghazwi imagination, it was in the period before the First World War, when the British writers regularly warned of the danger to the beaches of Britain that the Hun-in this event is presented, the royal navy had no little problem. During the Cold War, like stories like Dawn red It emerged intermittently, but they tended to focus more on unlikely scenarios of realism or education.

Scene Zero Day attack.Cultural and creative Zeroody

Like Taiwan, other democracies have seen that hostile countries target them in various ways in recent years: besides electronic attacks everywhere and influence campaigns, there were discounts in the surface cables, deliberate attacks, parcel gangs, election interference, immigration weapons, car sabotage, GPS, and GPS, and GPS,

Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, most of this passes invisible and without anyone noticing them. This leaves governments with a dilemma: How to persuade voters that defense budgets need to increase when they are largely unaware of the aggression?

About a decade ago, the Norwegian series busy I did to Norway, what Zero Day attack He is now preparing to do it for Taiwan. It was also a convincing TV – making the international fans installed it on Netflix. National security is, in fact, the best entertainment possible; It has a nail stomach drama, varied, panorama shots from famous cities, all kinds of people-and these days must have cable repair crews in stormy seas.

These future future contracts may be less likely, but it is worth thinking about them now. Taiwan residents can be more prepared, and TV drama can educate the public in most other countries as well. I have every belief that Swedish, Danish, Finnish, and Norwegian TV (again), and German and British TV will make a smashing function. Let’s see what global entertainment can reach.
