Chapter 8052: Flipping the Wrong Table......
A closer look at the American War of Independence reveals that, in essence, the Revolution, touted as a victory for "democracy" by mainstream scholars and media around the world, was from the outset full of lies, deception, and bloody and brutal repression of the opposition.
Beginning with the Boston Tea Party, the American Revolutionary War Fathers had always been a minority in the North American colonies, and this minority was made up of the main large landowners and big businessmen of the timeβin fact, in those days, anyone who was well educated could not have been poor.
In the ensuing war against the British, in addition to the HSD, the thugs who were pushed to the front, this minority group was also behind the bloody purge against the small landlords or landed peasants. The reason is that those people think that whoever runs the country is essentially the same thing, so there is nothing wrong with staying under the British, but being anti-British will cause them losses - you know, in that era, the main sea and land transport was either controlled by the British, or controlled by the big landowners or big merchants, and the exploitation of small landowners and small merchants by the big merchants and big landowners, who were more uncontrolled than the British, was actually the most ruthless.
Of course, for the big merchants and big landowners, they are already in a position of greater competition with the suzerains for economic control channels and industrial chains, so for them, independence has become the only option, and those who cannot achieve their goals, whether they are the British, or the small and medium-sized landowners and small businessmen of the North American colonies, are all enemies.
Although some people will say that if you carefully analyze the historical data, you will find that before the Declaration of Independence was officially issued and the United States produced the American version of the "Ten Hatreds" of the United Kingdom, the Continental Congress organized by the founding fathers of the United States has actually been trying to get Britain to accept the political status of North America, but all kinds of efforts have not been accepted by King George III of the United Kingdom, and in the end, these founding fathers of the United States finally became angry and officially broke with Britain politically - note that this is talking about politics.
In addition, the discussion of the political system in North America in the Federalist Papers makes it clear that "since the current revolutionary achievements are entirely due to the leadership of the minority, we must admit one thing, that is, the majority of the people are not able to understand the rules of the world, and therefore, in order to avoid the dilemma of the future situation led by an ignorant majority, it is necessary to establish a political system designed to isolate the main opinions of the majority"
It is worth noting that the Federalist Party at that time was actually the current Democratic Party, and the Confederate Party, which had different opinions on the national composition of the United States at that time, was a minority in Congress at that time, although it was the majority on the outside, and the Republican Party was newly established on the basis of a small number of Democrats and a majority of those who supported the Confederacy ideologically. The majority of the Confederates were quickly excluded from the core of power, as was the case with the Continental Congress in the Revolutionary War, either assassinating, accusing British spies, or embezzling property through commercial or non-commercial means......
Of course, in terms of the game between the idea of federalism and the idea of confederation, it was also manifested in the early stage of the Civil War, when the North did support the Republican Party in the majority, but the style of the situation was more like the Democratic Party that supported big government, while the South supported the Democratic Party, but the form and style were more like the Republican Party that wanted to have a smaller government. In essence, whether the United States invades the United States externally or slaughters at home, someone will put a gorgeous cloak on their behavior every time, and the reason is that the existence of the United States can be said to be equivalent to the Arab Empire in the Middle Ages, on the one hand, it restricts direct communication between the East and the West, and on the other hand, it seeks benefits from serving as a channel of communication between the two sides, and then the United States will gradually become stronger.
In other words, the United States, by its very nature, has very obvious characteristics of a parasitic civilization. And the policy of immigrant countries that the United States has been advocating is actually proof from the side, and the top level of the United States itself understands that the United States needs to constantly replenish the civilization originating from other countries, otherwise on this continent, it will still exercise the principle of gun supremacy when the New World was first discovered.
In fact, due to the collapse of the Soviet Union, another huge power that separated the East and the West, and the emergence of the Internet, it was possible for exchanges between the East and the West to be free from the influence of the United States, so that the United States began to gradually enter a primitive and extreme form in the field of culture - interestingly, this sign of the decline of civilization is seen by many as a more civilized expression.
In the nearly six months since the Democratic president took office, everyone has begun to worry about how the "culture" of the United States should continue to continue, and how to continue this political system that isolates the majority from decision-making through complex rules -- in fact, the combination of these two points shows that the upper echelons of the United States indeed regard the United States as a colony, not a motherland.
Samuel Huntington said on the eve of the collapse of the Soviet Union, "Whether China or Germany or even Britain and France have failed, they are still the same country, and if the United States and the Soviet Union have failed, then we will be nothing." β
And the rapid collapse of the Soviet Union also proved the correctness of his views to a certain extent, but for the American upper class, this will be the worst situation - because everyone is too deep in the United States, so it is necessary to ensure that the United States continues to exist, and any force that wants to subvert the United States will be dealt the greatest and most brutal blows, in fact, the American upper class especially understands what Hitler and Emperor Hirohito thought when they faced the imminent defeat......
In fact, the United States has made it clear to countries around the world more than once that I am very willing to drag the whole world into hell, and I have the ability, so you all have to let me go!
Among them, the Democrats, who have provoked the most foreign wars, and even prefer civil wars to negotiate and compromise, believe in this principle the most - a careful analysis of historical data will show that the Democratic Party habitually wants to flip the table after encountering setbacks, except for a few times when the Republican Party is beaten up and bruised and swollen, the Democrats mainly change to flip the table externally.
As a member of the diplomatic group, Phoebe herself controls a huge industrial economic chain, so she naturally has to choose her supporters carefully, of course, naturally, because the diplomatic group has a strong naval background, she will naturally choose the Republican side.
But this doesn't mean that Phoebe doesn't understand the other side's thinking, and it doesn't mean that Phoebe won't use the other side's means, such as telling others that she wants to flip the table or something, in essence, the Republican Party has actually learned this trick a long time ago, so Phoebe is no exception.
Throughout history, it will also be found that the best thing for the Democratic Party is to tear down the table where everyone used to eat together, and then split the table and then pick it up, and sit down to eat again, and at this time, the Democratic Party often sits on the main seat of the new table, while the Republican Party is better at building a new table, and after it is built, it takes it for granted when no one else has time to sit on the main seat, and at the same time, it is also willing to take the role of holding up the table that has been overturned by the Democratic Party.
From the perspective of patriarchy, the Democratic Party is a girl who is in an uncertain mood, while the Republican Party is a boy who is responsible; from the perspective of preference for women, the Democratic Party is a boy who likes to cause trouble, while the Republican Party is a girl who understands others.
But either way, the boys and girls here have a hooked tail behind them......
And Phoebe, naturally, also has a hook tail, of course, compared to others, he hides better and deeper, and at the same time, she doesn't mind applying some methods to the middle and lower class people.
For example, when it comes to the psychological intervention plan for Lee so-man, this is the case, and for example, the BOA brought by Lee so-man, Phoebe also has a plan for her - after all, BOA not only has a relatively stable position in South Korea, but also in RB, in Phoebe's view, in the future, if BOA participates in the RB plan of Girls' Generation, it is indeed good news for Girls' Generation.
However, as mentioned earlier, Phoebe, who can use both Republican and Democratic Party methods, will not simply express her desire to cooperate with the company and BOA.
Because even if there is no restriction on the relationship between predecessors and juniors, it is necessary to consider that BOA's contract in RB is still with Ai Hui Music, and Phoebe has even done everything possible to prevent the company from being sprinkled all over the company, how can she open her arms to Ai Hui Music?
In Phoebe's view, those who say that cooperation can achieve a win-win situation must have problems with their brains, or people who do not have their own core competitiveness, but want to get things for free from people with core competitiveness. For Phoebe, cooperation means a decrease in share, and a decrease in share means a decrease in opportunities, and she tosses and turns, isn't it just to create more opportunities for Girls' Generation?
As mentioned earlier, the Republican Party is best at building a new table and sitting in the main seat itself, but it is not said that it will exclude others from doing the same thing. Phoebe is the same, but even if she cooperates, she will not choose those companies whose artist positioning not only overlaps with Girls' Generation's positioning, but also has a very large number of companies.
Phoebe chose AKS Group to cooperate before, the reason is that AKB and Girls' Generation's positioning is very different, even in 2009 AKB48 began to flourish, but their positioning itself still does not go beyond the scope of signing a contract with Titan RB branch - Several members of AKB48 who wanted to follow a similar route to Girls' Generation's orientation were fired from AKS as soon as possible, because it was Dentsu and several prominent RB social organizations that thought they had regained the support of Langley for the cooperation of Titan's RB branch......
Therefore, no matter how she looks at it, Phoebe does not think it is a good idea to invite BOA directly to participate in the cooperation, because what she can get from BOA is just some convenience that is almost icing on the cake, not a help in disguise. On the U.S. side, the help that can be provided to BOA will obviously be more than what Girls' Generation will get from BOA, so if you say it directly, it will definitely make Girls' Generation lose a lot of expected benefits, and BOA will even sprinkle companies to take a lot of benefits out of thin air.
So in any case, Phoebe also had to use some psychological intervention on the BOA - of course, because this girlhood came to the United States was not part of Phoebe's plan, so the decision was made a little hastily, but anyway, since Phoebe had enough information through in-depth discussions with BOA when she went to Boston for a kick-off and went through the withdrawal procedures at the same time, it was not too difficult to formulate this new plan. Especially, it was Sunny who was with Phoebe at the time.
Phoebe knew that the plan she was making now was in a hurry because of the rush of time, and there was a thirty percent chance that Sister Sun would see that the arrangement in the United States this time would affect BOA's thoughts, but Phoebe was not worried about Sister Sun exposing her. Because, that time, Sunny faintly felt that BOA had bad intentions, and was very worried when he saw that Phoebe and BOA talked so much, but Phoebe told her: "Sister, it's not because I like BOA, but I want to know if she can help us continue to climb up in the future." β
Sunny naturally doesn't take it lightly as "seniors helping juniors", but although she still vaguely shows BOA's distrust later, she no longer tries to stop Phoebe from communicating with BOA.
Therefore, on the night when BOA first entered the estate of Beverly Hills, which was already the home of Girls' Generation, the action against her also began, although Phoebe would try to lift some tables, but she still considered herself a Republican after all, so she lifted the table not to make it to the main seat herself, but to try to get someone else to sit at her table. And what is more beneficial to Phoebe at the moment is that the senior traitor who is in conflict with the company is also Ai Hui in RB's contracted company......
While Lee so-man was communicating with Mr. and Mrs. Miller, BOA followed the members of Girls' Generation to soak in the small indoor swimming pool.
According to information that Girls' Generation learned from the housekeeper at the manor, the small pool does not use tap water from a water treatment plant, but is collected from a hot spring in Yellowstone and flown in, and the water is changed once a week, only 52 times a year...... It is said that the water from the hot spring was purchased not only by the estate, but also by many wealthy people to use in their own pools.
That's quite a lethal way of saying for women, well, actually, it's the same for men.
BOA, who was dragged by a member of Girls' Generation to run in the pool, said with a smile, "I said, this is not a hot spring either......"
"But the water is indeed a hot spring, sister, you don't know, we have experimented, this water can be sterilized~" There are always people who are particularly excited about BOA, and this person is naturally Xiaoyuan.
BOA SMILED WRYLY AGAIN, "BUT THIS IS A SWIMMING POOL, RIGHT?"
Xu Xian nodded and said, "I also think it's a swimming pool." β
Xiuying said, "This one has a heating device, so it can be used as a swimming pool, and it can also be used as a hot spring...... Don't tell me it's such a hot day, you want to soak in the hot springs all the time......"
"As long as it's ......good for your skin," Tiffany said, examining her arm, "the water is a little cold now, and it feels like it's all wasted...... Or is it from Yellowstone......"
Xiao Yuan said again: "That's right! We have experimented, it is definitely hot spring water! It can also sterilize!"
Taeyeon laughed and picked up a pinch of water and threw it at Hyoyeon: "Ah! That's just drowning insects with water!
Xiao Yuan was not annoyed, wiped the water from his face casually, made a pinching motion: "That little insect fell into it accidentally", and said seriously to BOA: "What I said is to use the microscope here, washing your hands with this water will really destroy bacteria." β
Jessica also hugged Xiaoyuan in her arms and stopped her from continuing: "Okay, we know, but we have both soap and hand sanitizer here, and we really can't have disinfectant, so we really don't need to use this to wash our hands." β
Yu Li and Sunny didn't speak, they both looked at Xiao Yuan with a look of joy, at this time BOA still remembered that Sunny was not very close to her last time, but she knew that if Girls' Generation couldn't get close to her, then some of her ideas couldn't be realized, and obviously Sunny had more opportunities to talk to Girls' Generation members than herself, and if she said she wasn't good, it wouldn't be good. But she's not stupid enough to talk to Sunny directly, after all, compared to last time, this time it's in front of the entire girlhood, and there is no way to slow down if something happens.
But this didn't bother BOA, she said casually, "By the way, why didn't Phoebe join you this time?" I remember that she couldn't remember faces, and she wasn't very used to participating in activities alone. β
Sunny gave BOA a quick look, but Sunny didn't speak, it was Seo Hyun who spoke: "Phoebe is accompanied by Barbara, and she is going to participate in a family event that the family that adopted her is going to attend, not the kind that is held every year, so she has to go." β
What Xu Xian knew was the explanation given to them by Phoebe and Barbara, of course, Sunny knew that Phoebe was running to inherit the title, but isn't inheriting the title also a family event? And it's the kind that doesn't happen every year, so Phoebe didn't lie to anyone this time.
BOA actually knew this, so she didn't dwell on it, but said: "But to be honest, that girl can't remember faces, and it's still quite worrying to be alone outside." As she spoke, she glanced at Sunny again.
Sunny suddenly felt crying and laughing, and said to himself, "What do you mean by looking at me sentence by sentence?" But Sunny is still as indifferent as he was just now- In fact, Phoebe's choice of this home field for Girls' Generation is really good, whether it is the predecessor BOA, or Li Xiuman, in fact, the moment they enter the gate of the manor, they have been affected by the momentum and scale of the mentality, this is not a simple explanation that can be explained without seeing the world, in essence, this is actually the mental isolation brought about by the insurmountable gap between the classes of European and American countries, and people of one class will instinctively produce loneliness and defensive psychology after entering the scope of activity of another class.
So why isn't Girls' Generation like this?
As mentioned earlier, one is because Girls' Generation has been here for more than two days and has enough time to adapt, and the other is also the main reason, many people here, including those from Desert New Town, who pretended to be the assistant team of Universal Music, all wore logo gems on their left shoulders, although these people are all fresh faces, but Girls' Generation is usually used to seeing people from their assistant team wearing logo gems, so it is not surprising that Girls' Generation can use this side as their own territory more quickly.
People are on their own territory, even if they look rich here, people will become much bolder and more open-minded, and don't forget, Barbara also rushed to South Korea before, sent them borrowed jewelry, and clearly said that they need to cultivate nobility, so this also makes the members of Girls' Generation enter the role of learning from the beginning, so they will not be shocked.
As mentioned earlier, Barbara was urgently recalled by Phoebe, and the two should have met directly in the UK, so all these arrangements were actually planned by Phoebe, in order to establish a psychological advantage for her sisters, whether it is in the face of the senior BOA, or in the face of those European and American artists who speak a language they don't understand at the awards ceremony, Girls' Generation needs this very much.
Of course, after having a psychological advantage, it is not without side effects, for example, now BOA's obvious two hints of "hooking up" have all been ignored by Sunny, mainly in the past, which is absolutely unthinkable, otherwise Sunny would not have been alert and even a little jealous because BOA and Phoebe talked too much before.
After BOA tried to seduce Sunny twice in a row and failed to join the conversation, he thought of something else - Li Xiuman has always claimed that in order to cultivate BOA, so how to do it, such as this time Li Xiuman came to the United States to investigate, and the reason for everyone was to help BOA develop in the United States to find opportunities.
And Sunny, but Li Xiuman's niece, in BOA's opinion, in fact, Mr. Li is sometimes a little too unkind to his niece, although this is inevitable due to reality, but in any case, he should still be relieved and relieved in private, right? But BOA knows that Mr. Li has never done this......
So, BOA now vaguely understands where Sunny's faint hostility towards him comes from - last time, it was he who wanted to rob Sunny's best friend of Phoebe's honor, and even talked and laughed with Phoebe very happily, and this time, it was sent by Li Xiuman again. In other words, success is also Lee Xiuman, defeat is also Lee Xiuman, at least to himself, Sunny's hostility is really very reasonable, BOA even feels that if he is Sunny, then his attitude towards Li Xiuman's optimistic person may be more intense.
So, BOA, who "reacted", said to Xiuying beside him, half seriously, half tentatively: "Anyway, you are really happy, like Phoebe...... You don't know, Mr. Li often checks reports about your performance in private, although others are in the United States, and it seems that they are guiding me, but he spends most of his time dealing with other things, and when he instructs me, he is usually reading your information I just talked about at the same time. β
Taeyeon's eyes widened from afar and she asked in surprise, "Really?"
BOA nodded and smiled: "I didn't lie to you, he was still on the phone with President Jin on the way here, talking about your arrangements for the second half of the year." β
In fact, BOA was also paying attention to Sunny's movements as she spoke, and sure enough, when she finished saying "the arrangement for the second half of the year", Sunny sat up from the water and said, "Hmph...... Yu Li and I are going to farm in the second half of the year, which is also arranged by the company?"
Yu Li also nodded a little resentfully, and added: "It's a year of planting......
In fact, in this matter, Sunny is once again asymmetrical with the information of the group members, she has heard the news that Phoebe said that KBS2 is going to come out of the farming variety show, and she knows that Phoebe is very optimistic about the effect that this variety show may cause, and she knows that Kim Doo-seok has spent a lot of effort in order to stuff the Girls' Generation people into this variety show as much as possible - although the upper level solved the problem with the help of Phoebe's attack at that time, but still has to face competition from other brokerage companies and other brokerage teams.
However, anyway, after the contract was signed, the other members of the group began to joke: Woo~Whoa~ Soon-gyu and Yu-ri are going to farm~~
And this joke is what really makes the two of them unhappy: they are obviously going to do a variety show about farming, but they have to say that they are going to farm......
The most annoying thing is that according to the plan of the program team, after returning to South Korea after attending the award ceremony, the other members were interviewed in the studio for the awards, but they had to go to the countryside to change their work clothes, and then say something about wearing jewelry and dresses to attend the awards ceremony in the United States...... With such a gap, they really can't be happy.
And Yu Li always told her in private, worried that this time it seemed to be deceived or something, which made Sunny annoyed, and now he was teased by BOA a few times, so he couldn't help but follow BOA's words and give this responsibility to his own uncle, in Sunny's opinion, so that Yu Li will not complain about anything in the future, right?
But her reaction,In BOA,It's another thing.,I didn't notice it before.,Now that I've noticed it.,Then you have to solve this problem anyway.,In BOA's opinion,Teacher Li is really good to herself.,But if you want to say that it's not good for your niece.,BOA will definitely shake your head.,You know,Teacher Li told BOA many times in private.,The most reliable in girlhood.,It's Sunny, who doesn't seem to care much about anything.,Nothing.,BOA thinks,You must let Sunny know Mr. Li's evaluation of her. β¦β¦
