As Professor Charles said, something did happen to the Hong Kong Mutants Brotherhood branch.
In fact, countries dominated by the United States (including some of its allies) had a very ambiguous attitude towards the Mutants. This kind of ambiguity could not be said to be complete oppression and oppression, because politicians also knew the simplest saying, "Where there is oppression, there will be resistance."
The Mutants were not a completely defenseless group. They did not discover the Native Americans at the same time that Columbus discovered the new continent of North America.
The European colonists used guns, cannons, and the Black Death to slaughter the indigenous people of North America. In the end, the European colonists completely occupied North America.
Because the Native Americans were still riding wild horses without saddles and using hunting bows that had a range of less than 30 meters, tribal warfare was still no different from primitive gang fights.
The Europeans had begun to equip themselves with modern firearms, artillery, and the most advanced tactical echelon of the time. They could easily slaughter these almost primitive tribes.
But the Mutants were not Native Americans. Because of the existence of Professor Charles and Magneto, the Mutants and the government actually maintained a delicate balance.
The politicians understood that if they completely fell out with the Mutants, it was very likely that they would be completely destroyed by the Mutants. At that time, it would cause a violent social conflict, and these politicians would not have an easy time.
On the other hand, the Mutants issue was a very suitable topic to hype up. The European and American countries first hyped up the Mutants issue after the end of World War II, because after the end of World War II, the investigation found that the Axis countries recruited a lot of psychics to participate in the war.
These Mutants were labeled as warmongers, and from this point of view, it might be correct. Because war crimes and crimes against humanity did need to be tried. A normal mutant was no different from a normal human.
But several subsequent elections of politicians broke the rules. It first originated in the United States. After Magneto rebelled against the X-Men organization of S.H.E.L.D., some politicians began to list the crimes of the Mutants.
The original intention was just to hype up the topic, and then gain exposure to attract support from the public. Thus, he came out on top in the Massachusetts gubernatorial race.
But the former Governor of Massachusetts did not expect that he had started a bad start. Everything started with him. Before this, the Mutants threat was just something that some radical people in the streets discussed in private gatherings.
But the Governor put it on the table and even labeled himself as an anti- Mutant. This suddenly attracted the attention of many media outlets. Like politicians, the news media has been accompanied by darkness and power since its birth.
"Uncrowned king" was just a title that shameless people gave themselves. Most of the news media only pursued sales, not really restoring the truth for the people.
Once politicians who needed exposure and media outlets who needed news sales combined, the terrible destructive power that erupted began to emerge.
The Massachusetts state election that year became a phenomenal event. The news media cooperated with the governor who needed to run and hyped up the Mutants thing. This allowed the politician to win the election by an absolute margin.
After that, many politicians discovered that elections could also be done this way! So later, a large number of imitators appeared. Whether they really hated Mutants or just for publicity, they all hyped up this kind of thing.
Then the harm of the Mutants group continued to be magnified over the decades. But at the same time, politicians remained rational and never really touched the Mutants in essence.
No matter what kind of campaign slogan they put forward during the election, it was just a slogan. When the voters cast their votes here, would they implement this slogan? God knows.
The politicians needed a stable environment to govern the country. Mutants were just a gimmick. Not all Mutants were as strong as Magneto. Mutants who farted with their mouths would not only make people stay away from them, but many people would even sympathize with them.
Politicians were well aware of this. At the same time, because of slogans such as Colored Issues and Human Rights Equality, there were very few politicians who mentioned the threat of Mutants in the late 1990s. (Except for radicals like Stryker. But even radicals would not say such things in public to the public and the news media. Because it was politically incorrect to do so.)
But on some occasions, politicians would still say something to attract the public. Because some people already had the concept of [Mutants are pests] after decades of brainwashing by the news media.
Most people were like this. In fact, they didn't argue about the right and wrong. Just like the two education systems implemented in the United States, the relaxed and happy public schools were the [Happy Education] that children in Asian countries were envious of.
The other was the [Elite Education] that was cruel and harsh. In order to keep up with the top universities led by the Ivy League, it was the [Elite Education].
Most people who didn't know the truth came from the [Happy Education]. Those who knew the truth but covered it with a veil came from the [Elite Education].
And this difference caused the [Elites] to manipulate the public's tongue to achieve their desired goal. To this day, the problem of Mutants in Europe and the United States has become a chronic problem.
Not all [Elites] and [Politicians] were people with no bottom line. Some of them were humane and compassionate. They realized that if this problem continued, it would become the biggest factor of instability in the entire country and even the world.
This was not a simple conflict of race, skin color, and religion! But this group of people was still small, so it was difficult for Europe and the United States to change their ambiguous attitude towards the Mutants.
But compared to Europe and the United States, or those small countries that were impacted by the cultural values of Europe and the United States to the point that their national consciousness was completely replaced by Europe and the United States, China on the other side of the ocean had always taken a different path from the United States.
In fact, China had gone through a very painful and difficult period of time. In the era of global industrialization, this large country with a population of hundreds of millions was still a huge agricultural country.
Eighty percent of the population was engaged in agricultural work. Without the assistance of industrialization, even if eighty percent of the country's population was farming, there were still countless people in the country who went hungry.
Therefore, the leaders of the country at that time proposed the concept of "Unite all forces that can be united and build for the people of China." China had a population that other countries could not match. Because of the large population base, the number of Mutants was also several times that of other countries.
With the increase of Mutants, there were also more Mutants who excelled in certain aspects. Whether it was Mutants who could direct water flow to help the construction team quickly build dams and aqueducts.
Or Mutants who had super memory and could become Humanoid Archives. Or Mutants who could raise the temperature of the flame and help China produce the first batch of special steel.
These Mutants were active in every piece of land and every field of China. They were like catalysts that rapidly improved the country's breakthroughs in certain fields, thus making great strides in the country as a whole. Until today, when the East and the West were competing against each other as equals. (Note: China in Marvel is different from China in reality.)
Because of the concept of tolerance, acceptance, and preparation to do proper management from the beginning. The living conditions of Mutants in China were very different from those in Europe and the United States.
Some countries even had mutants as the leaders in key positions. So at that time, when Shang Qi (Shang Qi, Iron Fist's senior) was talking to Captain Rogers, he said, "In China, there are only Chinese, there are no Mutants."
At the same time, because of the confrontation between the East and the West, it was difficult to escape the topic. Most Western countries, including the US government, discredited China on the issue of Mutants, such as "slave-like work" and so on.
There was no warmth to speak of in politics, especially since China's rapid progress over the years made the old powerful countries feel threatened. So why hadn't the Ten Rings gang, which had been entrenched in the Middle East for so many years, been eradicated?
Was it really just because the Lord Man was invincible? Well, even if the Lord Man was invincible. Could it be that China couldn't gather all the powerful Mutants or cultivators (mainly from Kunlun) to kill him? Although there was a price to pay.
In fact, a very important reason why the Ten Rings gang could survive all these years was because of the Western countries' indulgence. They let China deploy a large number of troops on the northwest border to divert China's energy. However, with the Battle of New York as an opportunity, China seized the opportunity to carry out a joint sweep with Latvia, and finally got rid of the big trouble that had been plaguing them for many years.
Of course, this kind of thinking was mutual. The boss shouldn't say that the second boss was bad. In fact, China would do the same thing. For example, the Mutant Brotherhood.
Because the Mutants' living conditions in China were better, there were many Mutants who couldn't do well in life. Some even said that the Mutants who were bullied and oppressed would choose to flee to China. Although it was difficult to obtain a China passport, as long as one could get a long-term work visa, it was actually better than many countries.
Therefore, the Mutants' living environment became more relaxed, and the Mutant Brotherhood also began to be established. In fact, many Mutants in China sympathized with Mutants living in other countries.
In addition, the leader of the Mutant Brotherhood, Magneto Charles, was obviously at odds with the US government and its allies. Therefore, China actually turned a blind eye to the Mutant Brotherhood.
Magneto also understood this tacit understanding. He would never be in China or make trouble for China's important allies. This was a tacit understanding that could not be put on the table.
So when the news that the Mutant Brotherhood in Hong Kong was destroyed was put on the table, China Spear Game Director Zheng Xian scratched his head depressingly.
"Isn't Magneto not making trouble in China?" Zheng Xian asked his right-hand man and the Captain of the God's Team, Weather Witch.
Weather Witch shrugged to indicate that she didn't know: "I don't know about this. In fact, Magneto hasn't appeared for a while. That's why some people want to stroke his tiger's whiskers. I don't want this kind of revenge to happen in China, otherwise we'll be very busy. "
Zheng Xian sighed: "Yeah, it's rare to see New Year's Day, but there's not even a holiday. I think you'd better go out and see what's going on. "
Weather Witch gestured that there was no problem: "Okay. But you still have to meet the President of Africa, Mahadou, right? "
Zheng Xian continued to scratch his head: "Shouldn't receiving foreign guests be the business of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs? Why are they looking for our Spear Game? "
"I won't know the answer even if you ask me." Weather Witch made a "no comment" expression: "In fact, Naybinea has been very active in the past year. He united with seven African countries and began to resist the European Union's dumping of agricultural products in their country. I heard that they want to develop their own agriculture, and not be completely controlled by the European Union. You have to know that the European Union's agriculture is supported by their advanced industry. The European Union gives each dairy farmer a subsidy of 1.9 euros per day for a cow. Their milk can be sold at a price lower than the cost. The cost of raising their own cows and chickens in these African countries is not even as cheap as the selling price of others. "
"That's why I'm having a headache!" Zheng Xian's hair was about to be scratched out by himself: "It's obvious that they want to seek strategic cooperation, that's why they came to China. This is a good thing for us, but there's also a huge risk. Africa is the European Union's territory, their traditional sphere of influence. I don't know if it's a good or bad thing for China to get involved. "
"In particular, Naybinea held a conference in Nemaha (the capital of Naybinea). The African Group of Eight countries (although none of them are big countries) boycotted the European Union, which has angered the Europeans. They want to use the WTO as an excuse to sanction these countries. Is it appropriate for us to intervene? These things should be left to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. "
Zheng Xian really didn't want to deal with this matter because it wasn't his expertise.
The Weather Witch: "I think you should meet him. Because the President of Naybinea, Mahadu, has brought another special guest. "
Zheng Xian: "Who?"
The Weather Witch: "The new president of Tuvalu, an 18-year-old girl, Katie!"
Zheng Xian: … Eighteen years old? President? He felt like he was a little irritated.
PS1: Naybinea, a country that appeared in the chapter "Game Breaker" in my previous volume, "The Eve of Star Wars". The country was fictitious by me. In the later stories, it was also mentioned that the mutant country Tuvalu and Naybinea were connected.
PS2: Because everyone knows, I won't write about any other departments or officials in the China part. Therefore, Spear Game took care of all the work, such as diplomacy, strategy, national security, and so on. Please don't complain. Just think of it as a characteristic of this universe.
PS3: I've explained the situation of China's Mutants a long time ago, and I've laid the groundwork for it. So please don't complain that the setting of the mutants in China suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
