Chapter 2983 Discussion
Duran said that the most important thing is experience, because the environment of the universe will change, and everyone has to adapt to it. But the current goal is still very clear, that is development.
The Star Cluster Council has been crazy. Although there is no declaration of war, the goal of destroying Mobile Ultraman is already obvious.
After several rounds of fierce battles, Mobile Ultraman's combat effectiveness has increased rapidly, and he has also received help from many aliens. The alien spies in the Star Cluster Council also provided a lot of intelligence, informing the evil ambitions of the Star Cluster Council and reminding humans to be careful of the Jetton Core.
In their mouths, the Jetton Core is the decision-making body of the Star Cluster Council, and the so-called parliament is just a cover. The Jetton Core hides in the dark and controls everything, so if you want to prevent the Earth from being invaded, you must defeat the Jetton Core. Team Kot also strengthened its determination to defeat the enemy.
So the current situation is that the earthlings help the aliens fight the earthlings, and the aliens help the earthlings fight the aliens.
Adad and Zero are helpless. Although Duran said it very well, building an altar, placing a flexible cosmic will in the middle, and then letting everyone in, using resources to ensure the development of diverse talents, it seems simple, but looking at the various situations happening on Earth at this moment, they can't help but doubt: "Don't they know the problem? Don't they understand flexibility?"
"Of course they know, but they don't need it." Duran said that his relationship with the Star Cluster Council and the Earth is like the relationship between Mencius and King Hui of Liang.
Mencius's benevolence and righteousness are very good, but they are not what King Hui of Liang needs. What Wei needs is a means to strengthen the army and enrich the people, and what it needs is more resources, not a distribution relationship.
It is also a bit like the relationship between the Qing Dynasty and the powers. The Qing Dynasty is not unwilling to do business with the powers, but it needs the powers to do business according to its own tribute system.
The Qing Dynasty wants the powers to kneel within its own rules of the game. If the powers don't kneel, they will fight in the end.
In fact, it can be understood if you think about it, because the Qing Dynasty is not only facing the powers, but also the entire East Asia. The entire East Asia is a tribute system, and they all kneel in the altar of the Qing Dynasty, using the same set of rules. Now the great powers suddenly came, saying that they brought their "benevolence and righteousness" and wanted the Qing Dynasty to do business according to their distribution method. The Qing Dynasty would definitely not be willing to do so.
If the Qing Dynasty changed its trade methods, what would the small countries in East Asia think? How could the Qing Dynasty maintain its tribute trade? So if the great powers did not kneel, the Qing Dynasty could only let them go. If the great powers did not want to go, then they could only declare war.
Unfortunately, the Qing Dynasty suffered a disastrous defeat and failed to stabilize its own system.
Just like the Wei Kingdom, King Liang Hui drove away Mencius, but in the end the Wei Kingdom was defeated by the Qin Kingdom and the original system was not maintained.
"History tells us that if two sets of rules coexist, it is difficult to replace them in a short period of time without a war." Duran said.
Just like the Qing Dynasty, before the Qing Dynasty, intellectuals all followed the example of the previous kings, that is, they followed the example of Yao, Shun and Yu and competed with the emperor for the right to speak. They would say to the emperor that it is not good for you to do this, and you should do it according to the practices of Yao, Shun and Yu. But are these practices really the practices of Yao, Shun and Yu? No, they are actually the practices of the literati.
Of course, the emperor can also use the ministers under Yao, Shun and Yu to demand the ministers, so as to form a check and balance.
But didn't the Qing Dynasty lose the war? Besides, if Yao, Shun and Yu were good, it would definitely not work. If Yao, Shun and Yu were really good, how could the Qing Dynasty lose?
It is not good to follow the previous king, so the intellectuals turned to follow foreign countries, that is, to imitate foreign countries. It is to tell everyone that it is not good to do this way, look at how foreigners do it, and they do it this way. You all listen to me.
The Qing Dynasty was defeated miserably, and the previous king also failed. This is the so-called breaking the backbone, from following the previous king to following foreign countries. The definition of beauty has changed from Yao, Shun and Yu to the moon in foreign countries. Of course, the method with Central Plains characteristics has not changed, but the object of imitation has changed.
Now the earth has its own rules, and the aliens have their own rules. If you want to replace them as soon as possible, you can only defeat them, and it must be an absolute victory. Let the earthlings and aliens realize that their original rules are outdated at the same time, and then they will turn around and learn.
If there is no war, it will take a long time to export standards, and in the end it may be a cultural circle, not a unified country.
"All forces have rules. The countries on Earth have rules, the people of Empera, the Star Cluster Council, Ultraman, and we have rules. Even Belia has tried to establish his own rules. If we bring our rules to them, they will definitely look down on us. If I don't have the technology of the Plasma Spark Tower, I'm afraid the Kingdom of Light will drive me away directly." Duran said that fortunately he is not Mencius. He not only has benevolence and righteousness, but also technology.
If Duran only has benevolence and righteousness but no technology, the Kingdom of Light will definitely leave without sending Ultraman to cooperate.
"So our choice is war, or continuous development of technology to replace their rules, of course, we can use both." Duran said.
"It seems that the rules are not about good or bad, but whether they can be stable. After all, it's just a distribution relationship. As long as everyone is willing to accept it, there is no good or bad." Adad deeply understood that the distribution relationship cannot be compared between good and bad, but only depends on whether everyone is willing to accept it.
In fact, there are still good and bad. The distribution relationship is the allocation of resources to mobilize everyone's enthusiasm. The distribution relationship with clear rewards and punishments is definitely better. But as long as it can function, a region is stable. There is really no good or bad in maintaining stability. It is enough to maintain order.
Cero also said: "War and development are really difficult. We have sufficient military force now, but if we use war to defeat everyone and force the rules on them, it is not in line with our philosophy." "But what method can we use to make everyone realize that they should work hard to develop and take risks themselves?" It is very annoying because you can't wake up those who pretend to be asleep. The fact that King Hui of Liang drove away Mencius is a good example, because it is very difficult to change the rules spontaneously. Only through your own failure can you deeply understand the shortcomings and have the motivation to change.
Cero knows very well that using force is the easiest, and using development is probably not possible.
Because why should I develop? It is better not to develop than to develop. Once it develops, the society will be in chaos and my position will be lost. Isn't it a big loss? The rich will live the life of the rich, and they will not come to rob the poor of their broken bowls. Although the poor only have broken bowls, they can also eat and don't have to worry about survival.
The bottom line of life cannot be underestimated. One hundred yuan a day is a living, and eating steamed buns for three meals a day is also a living.
"If the original distribution rules can continue, then they will have no motivation to develop and change, only war. This is for your good, so I want to beat you." Adad also thinks that life is often a humiliation.
Only after failure and not being able to eat, everyone will have the motivation to change.
As for seeing others live a good life, they want to work hard to change themselves, which is obviously overthinking. There are definitely such people, but definitely not everyone. Some people can survive and don't ask for a good life. It's like the story of the beggar and the merchant. Both of them are on the beach. The merchant asked the beggar why he didn't work? The beggar asked back why he had to work? The merchant said that work is to make money, and making money is to enjoy life and sunbathe on the beach. The beggar said I am sunbathing now.
If you lose the war and can't eat, it is a situation that directly threatens survival. If the beggar can't get food and has no food to eat, he will not be in the mood to sunbathe. So beating you for your own good is really possible.
