Section 122 Who's in front of the stage and who's behind the scenes [Part I]

Elizabeth and Yi Shui are still continuing their boring tricks. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Qin Lang sighed slowly. He knew their purpose, but was still confused. Yi Shui did this because he was patriotic enough to want China to emerge from its current miserable situation and become a feared world power again, but why would Elizabeth play a role in his performance?

Could it be her revenge? Because he and Rachel are looking around for helpers for her, she's prepared to cause him a little bit of trouble too?

It's ridiculous, and it's childish - how could she think that her performance with Yi Shui could bother him? If he refuses to waste his time, his life, and his money on a great and noble ideal, there is nothing they can force him to do.

So their performances are meaningless. And Qin Lang was tired of this performance, so he decided to let it stop.

"Can you stop your show, two?" He tapped the plate a few times with his fork, and they fell silent and looked at him with wide eyes.

However, Qin Lang didn't say anything, just kept a faint smile. After a while, Elizabeth asked him, "Do you know our purpose?" ”

Qin Lang asked her rhetorically: "Elizabeth, if I can't comprehend anything like a fool, what's the point of your performance?" ”

"And now? Now that you fully understand our intentions, do you think our performance makes sense? Yi Shui asked.

"I'd love to give you a little encouragement, but sadly, no." Qin Lang's attitude was resolute and did not hesitate at all, "If I don't want to do something, no matter how you persuade me, it won't make any sense. ”

"It's pretty much what I expected." Elizabeth said, apologetically smiling at Yi Shui, who was rapidly becoming more depressed, and made an apologetic gesture, "I'm sorry, Yi Shui, I couldn't help you." ”

"It's okay, Elizabeth." Yi Shui replied weakly. Qin Lang's answer made him extremely disappointed - he had thought that he could make his attitude loosen up a little, but now it seemed that the situation was just the opposite. But what exactly is the reason for this? Yi Shui was puzzled.

However, it was Rachel who openly raised the issue - although she was upset that Yi Shui did not consult her before performing the "show", she decided to do him a little favor after seeing his face. "Since you're not willing to help China change the status quo, what's your reason, Qin?"

"Why?" Qin Lang thought about it slowly. He has at least a dozen reasons why he is reluctant to get too involved in China's affairs, and each one is quite reasonable. But reasonable reasons are not always accepted, so the question now is, which one is Yishui willing to accept?

Or, say all those reasons? This may take a little time.

Qin Lang took a sip of coffee. "First of all, I want to state that I love my nation and my motherland, and I am very willing to do something for China within my ability, but this does not mean that I am willing to do anything for it. Unfortunately, changing the political situation in China is one of those things I am not willing to do, it is a waste of time, life and money. And in the end, I'll take my reputation. ”

"Do you think it's going to be that bad?" Rachel was skeptical, and so was Elizabeth.

However, they would never know that the actual situation was even worse than Qin Lang described. Overthrow the Qing government, yes, he has the ability -- he is not the Dr. Sun who has only one mouth most of the time. He has capital, he has an army, and in the future there are weapons of mass destruction. Overthrowing the Qing government was only a small meaning for Qin Lang.

But after the overthrow of the Qing government, unless he immediately let go - but this is obviously not Yi Shui's hope - trouble will befall him. The overthrow of the Qing government is just the prelude to a live-action game called "Building a Strong and Prosperous New China", and the rest of the game is the real content.

Of course, Qin Lang knew how this game should be played, but he didn't think he could play it well. Ruling a country is completely different from sitting in an air-conditioned room and playing Victoria. You can save and reread the game when you play the game, you can enter a cheat code, and you can restart the game if you really think it's bad......

But ruling a real country is completely different. No savings, no cheat passwords, and no restarts...... Well, it may be a bit absolute to say this--Qin Lang thought of the mysterious bastard who threw him back in 1893-but no matter what, in the real world, any small mistake would cause irreparable damage.

For example, millions of people have died.

He can not care about these losses, for the ruler, the death of millions of people is nothing more than a statistic that lacks an intuitive concept, but someone will care. Humans are not computer programs, they have their own consciousness and can like or hate something. And computer programs don't think they can replace players, but there are always people in humans who think they can or even should be players.

So, in the real world, if the ruler of a country keeps making mistakes and adding statistics that shouldn't exist, the regime he leads will fall.

And there are other problems that can lead to the end of the government, such as corruption, reforms that make some people unhappy, and foreign policies that are difficult for the people to accept......

And Qin Lang swore that if the vast number of Chinese knew about the plan he had made for himself and the American consortium, he would immediately become a traitor on the same level as Li Zhongtang. Although it is still a secret, how can a politician hide his secret completely?

Even if no Chinese were to discover it, the hyena-like American journalists would find it and make it to the front pages of the newspapers.

Once this happens, does he still want to rule China in peace?

"So, if I don't want to get myself into trouble, the best thing to do is to leave China alone." Qin Lang said concludingly.

Of course, in the previous remarks, he omitted everything related to computers and computer games, so his three listeners still didn't have a clear idea. Yi Shui first questioned: "There have been countless changes of dynasties in Chinese history, and I don't think those founding emperors have so much to worry about as you. ”

"The history you see is all about the successful, easy water. Behind the emperors who started a dynasty are the corpses of ten times more losers. Qin Lang shrugged and picked up his coffee cup, but the cup was already empty. So he beckoned the maid to pour him coffee, and continued: "And you don't take international issues into account. ”

"International issues?"

"When the emperors of Chinese history started their own dynasties, were there any powerful countries in their world, such as Great Britain, the United States, Germany, or Russia, that had extensive interests in China?" He shook his head sadly, "Believe me, Yi Shui, times are completely different." ”

"Well," Elizabeth replaced Yi Shui, and jumped the subject forward a bit, "how can you be so sure that you are not capable of running a country?" Qin, to be honest, it surprised me that you would be so pessimistic. ”

"Elizabeth, running a country is not as simple as managing a company, and China is a vast country with a population of 400 million people, and it has a thousand-year-old tradition of centralized politics. It is more difficult to rule it than any country in the world. ”

Elizabeth was still confused. "What do you mean?"

Qin Lang took a sip of coffee and replied, "I mean, unless the new central power has absolute ruling authority over all grassroots units in China, every community in the city, and every village in the countryside, the orders of the central power cannot be effectively enforced. ”

In the history of China, there is only one regime that has penetrated its influence into every community and village of the country, and with his current capacity, it is simply impossible to construct a similar regime.

"But why let the influence of the new regime reach every community and village?" Rachel frowned. She's the quintessential American...... That is, the kind that enshrines democracy and freedom as creeds.

Although in the company, she behaved little different from a dictator. But in any case, in her mind, the American political system is undoubtedly the most perfect.

"If the world has enough time and a peaceful environment for China, I don't mind implementing the American political system in China." Qin Lang didn't want to start a debate with her about the merits of the American-style political system, so he changed his explanation: "Rachel, you should know the situation that China is facing, and if it doesn't have a strong central government, I swear it will split into several small countries that are supported by different countries." ”

"Then those small countries will be annexed by the great powers or become colonies." This time, Yi Shui was on Qin Lang's side, "And China's conservative forces are extremely strong, and without a strong central power, no reform can be carried out." ”

"China can't become a strong country without radical reform." Qin Lang finally added, "Of course, if I were an idealist, I would still start this game, but I am a realist. ”

There was silence for a while, and finally Elizabeth commented, "Your problem is that you are too realistic, Qin. ”

"No, my problem is that I know myself too well." That's the reason he can't tell. How can a man whose most of his success depends on his knowledge of history think that he can do better than the famous people in history in a new history?

"Great Apollo—" he sighed.

Note: Qin Lang's exclamation stems from the famous sentence engraved in front of the temple of Apollo: "Know yourself, so that you can know the secrets of the gods and the universe" - but he apparently only knows the first sentence.
