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) have a very ambiguous attitude towards Mutants. This ambiguity can't be said to be complete oppression and oppression, because politicians also know the simplest saying, "Where there is oppression, there is resistance."
Mutants are not a completely defenseless group. They didn't discover the Native Americans at the same time that Columbus discovered the New World of North America.
European colonists almost slaughtered the indigenous people of North America through guns, cannons, and the Black Death. In the end, European colonists completely occupied North America.
Because the Native Americans still rode saddleless wild horses and used hunting bows with a range of less than 30 meters, tribal warfare was still no different from primitive gang fights.
Europeans have begun to equip themselves with modern firearms, artillery, and the most advanced tactical echelon of the time. They can easily slaughter these almost primitive tribes.
But Mutants are not Native Americans. Because of the existence of Professor Charles and Magneto, Mutants and the government actually maintain a delicate balance.
Politicians understand that if they completely fall out with Mutants, it is likely that the other party will completely destroy the stage. At that time, it will cause violent social conflicts, and these politicians will not have an easy time.
On the other hand, the issue of Mutants is a very suitable topic for hype. The European and American countries first hyped up the issue of Mutants after the end of World War II because investigations after World War II found that the Axis countries recruited a lot of special people to fight in the war.
These Mutants were labeled as warmongers, which may be true from this point of view. Because war crimes and crimes against humanity do need to be tried. Ordinary Mutants are no different from ordinary humans.
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 Mutants.
The original intention was just to hype up the topic and then gain exposure to attract public support. 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 threat of Mutants was only 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 attracted a lot of attention from the media. Just like politicians, the news media had 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 the politicians who needed to be exposed and the media who needed to sell news combined, the terrifying destructive power that erupted began to show.
The Massachusetts campaign was a phenomenal event. The news media cooperated with the governor who needed to run for office to hype up the mutants. This allowed the politician to win the election by a landslide.
After that, many politicians realized that elections could also be done this way! As a result, a large number of imitators appeared. It did not matter if they really hated Mutants or it was just for publicity. Either way, they were all hyped up.
Then, the danger of the Mutants continued to be magnified over the past few decades. But at the same time, the politicians maintained their rationality and never really touched the mutants.
No matter what campaign slogans they put forward during the election, they were just slogans. When the voters cast their votes here, would they put this slogan into practice? God knows.
Politicians needed a stable environment to properly rule the country. Mutants were just a gimmick. Not all Mutants were as strong as Magneto. Mutants who fart with their mouths not only made people stay away from them, but many people would even sympathize with them.
The politicians were well aware of this. At the same time, because of the slogans of color issues and equality of human rights, 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 of the people were like this. In reality, they did not try to explain the truth. Just like the two sets of education systems implemented in the United States, the relaxed and happy public school was the [Happy Education] that children in large Asian countries were envious of.
The other kind was cruel and harsh. In order to be able to keep up with the top universities in the Ivy League, the elite education was the foundation of the elite education.
Most people who did not know the truth came from [Happy Education]. Those who knew the truth but covered it with a veil came from [Elite Education].
And this difference caused the [Elites] to manipulate the public opinion to achieve their desired goals. Today, the Mutants problem in Europe and the United States had become a chronic problem.
Not all [Elites] and [Politicians] were people without a bottom line. Some people still had humanity and sympathy. They realized that if this problem continued, it would become the biggest factor of instability for 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 the ambiguous attitude of Europe and the United States towards Mutants was difficult to improve.
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 where 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 experienced 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 were starving.
Therefore, the leaders of the country at that time proposed the concept of [Unite all forces that can be united to 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 the Mutants who could direct water flow and help the construction team build dams and aqueducts quickly.
Or the Mutants who had super memory and could become a humanoid archive. Or the 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 quickly promoted the breakthroughs in certain fields of the country, thus making great strides forward at the national level. Until today, the stage where the East and the West were equally matched. (Note: China in Marvel is different from China in reality.)
Because of the concept of tolerance and proper management from the beginning. The living conditions of the Mutants in China were very different from those in Europe and the United States.
Even in some key positions in some countries, the Mutants were the leaders. 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 an unavoidable topic. Most Western countries, including the US government, discredited China on the issue of Mutants. For example, they used words like "slave-like work" to describe it.
There was no warmth in politics, especially when China's rapid progress over the years made the old powerful countries feel threatened. So why hadn't the Ten Rings gang in the Middle East been eradicated for so many years?
Was it really just because the Lord Man was invincible? Well, even if the Lord Man was invincible. Couldn't China 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 allowed China to 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, finally eliminating the long-term threat.
Of course, this kind of thinking was mutual. The boss shouldn't say that the boss was bad. In fact, China would do the same thing. For example, the Mutants Brotherhood.
Because the living conditions of the Mutants in China were relatively good, many Mutants who were bullied and oppressed chose 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 living environment of the Mutants was relaxed, and the Mutants Brotherhood organization also began to be established. In fact, many Mutants in China sympathized with the Mutants living in other countries.
In addition, the leader of the Mutants Brotherhood, Magneto Charles, was obviously at odds with the US government and its allies. Therefore, China actually turned a blind eye to the Mutants Brotherhood.
Magneto also understood this tacit understanding. He would never cause trouble in China or China's important allies. This was a kind of tacit understanding that could not be put on the table.
So when the news of the destruction of the Mutants Brotherhood in Hong Kong was put on the table, China Spear Game Director Zheng Xian scratched his head gloomily.
"Isn't Magneto not causing trouble in China?" Zheng Xian asked his right-hand man and the captain of the Investiture Team, the Weather Witch.
The Weather Witch shrugged, indicating 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 whiskers. I don't want this kind of revenge to happen in China, otherwise we will be very busy. "
Zheng Xian sighed, "Yeah, it's New Year's Day, but there's not even a holiday. I think you should go out and see what's going on. "
The 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 you looking for our Spear Game? "
"I won't know the answer even if you ask me." The Weather Witch made a "no comment" expression, "In fact, Naybinea has made a big move in the past year. He united seven countries in Africa and began to resist the EU's agricultural dumping in their country. I heard that they want to re-develop their own agriculture and not be completely controlled by the EU. You have to know that the EU's agriculture is supported by their advanced industry. The EU subsidizes each dairy farmer with 1.9 euros a day for a cow. Their milk can be sold at a price lower than the cost. The cost of raising 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 off by himself, "Obviously, they want to seek strategic cooperation, that's why they came to China. This is a good thing for us, but there are also huge risks. Africa is the EU's private land, 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 G8 countries in Africa (although none of them are big countries) boycotted the EU, 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 area of 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 eighteen year old girl, Katie!"
Zheng Xian, "… Eighteen years old? President? He felt 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. In later stories, it was also mentioned that the mutant country, Tuvalu, had connections with Naybinea.
PS2: Because everyone knows, I won't write about any other departments or officials in the China part, so 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 feature of this universe.
PS3: I explained the situation of the mutants in China a long time ago and laid the groundwork. So please don't complain that the setting of the mutants in China suddenly popped out of nowhere.
