The knight in the big world of American TV series

Chapter 2382

Seeing things were about to go wrong, the Indian guy immediately turned around and said... Wait, I'll join! I'll join! We can talk about the previous terms again! Let's talk!
That's so annoying to that big Eastern country!

There's not much of a good solution. As I said before, international affairs can't be handled recklessly; after all, not everyone can act like a big golden retriever. Especially since a certain major Eastern power values ​​international etiquette and doesn't want things to get too ugly!

So they had no choice but to accept it.

Seeing the overjoyed expression on the face of that major Eastern power, the Indian knew he was truly unwelcome and that the other side genuinely didn't want him involved. So he toned it down a bit and tried to talk seriously... Even during serious talks, that bastard kept causing trouble, which the Indian saw as normal.

This is called reasonably striving for interests commensurate with its international status... That's right, since the fall of the United States, India has been jumping around and making its voice heard in various international affairs. Although most people are not very willing to pay attention to it, it feels good about itself... According to its own words, it is now basically aiming to maintain its second position and strive for first... That's right, that's its own self-positioning!

They've always been very confident...

When it comes to self-confidence, two countries inevitably come to mind: South Korea and India. In the world of self-confidence, these two are like the legendary Crouching Dragon and the Young Phoenix.

Koreans preach "all the good things are mine," while Indians think the opposite, believing "all my things are good things." There's an essential difference between them—Koreans' confidence is tinged with inferiority, after all, they live in a small country and can only rely on bluffing to maintain appearances; but Indians' confidence is genuine and heartfelt. You can see the way they think they're the most handsome when they're courting someone, and the composure they have when drinking cow urine. It's something that others really can't imitate.

Often, this confidence even leads to a disregard for the facts.

That’s confidence!

Fortunately, this time they imposed some restrictions, after all, there was real money involved!

If a certain mysterious Eastern superpower doesn't include them, they really can't play!
Their confidence wouldn't allow them to swim across to mine.

But the situation soon took a turn for the better.

Another troublemaker has arrived.

Oh my god!

It's really terrible for Daiying.

Several major events have resulted in her suffering significant damage!
When the Great Protection failed last time, the Great Plague of London tormented Ying to the point of near death.

But when the great guardian is revived, Yingying's troublesome nature comes out again.

Apocalypse beats up the little tyrant and stands up to the United States.

It ended with the United States leaving in a very undignified manner.

However, for a time, no one in the international community was willing to acknowledge Apocalypse's ruling position.

After all, his actions were essentially a coup d'état, and a mutant coup at that. He established a caste-based state, which is unacceptable to many countries.

The mutant coup that brought power to the country has terrified many ordinary people, who fear that one day they will wake up to find their own country has become like that.

Another issue is the caste system... Apocalypse implemented a strict caste system in its own country.

Mutants are at the very top of the pyramid, possessing almost the same privileges as the Celestial Dragons!

This is unacceptable to almost all countries.

Although the idea of ​​democratic oil is essentially a lie, the United States, which loudly proclaims it, may not actually take it seriously.

But this thing has been promoted for decades, and it's already deeply ingrained in people's minds.

American-style freedom, under the influence of Western propaganda, has been packaged as a highly deceptive pyramid scheme, aggressively marketed worldwide, backed by a sophisticated set of tactics. Democracy was originally a Soviet propaganda slogan, meaning the people are masters of their own destiny, free from oppression. How to achieve this freedom from oppression? By completely eliminating capitalists and exploitation. This is blatant Soviet communist ideology. When the Soviet Union was powerful, countless ordinary people voluntarily rallied under the banner of democracy, causing immense panic in Western societies. Seeing how effective democracy was, the United States employed a keyword substitution technique. Thus, democracy became the American political system of one person, one vote, competitive elections, and multi-party alternation of power. Under the powerful propaganda machine of the West, democracy and freedom became exclusive to the United States, and American-style freedom became a global beacon. The first tactic of American-style freedom is keyword substitution: by subtly changing concepts, distorting meaning, glorifying malicious intent, and deceiving the world, it achieves its ulterior motives. In the context of Western public opinion, coups are no longer seen as illegal and violent seizures of power, but as democratic transitions. Western-backed anti-government forces are transformed into democratically elected governments and spokespeople for democracy and freedom, provided, of course, that they can't skimp on the benefits promised to the West!

To thoroughly influence public opinion in a country, besides using keyword substitution to shake public perception, it's also necessary to create a democratic icon who, through personal testimony, allows the public to empathize and gain widespread support. The simplest way to do this is to evoke public sympathy by establishing an oppressed hero figure who reflects both the government's brutal oppression and Western democracy and freedom—a win-win situation.

The American-style free-spirited approach has created a complete star-making assembly line, producing different personas based on the national conditions of different countries. There are tragic idols, tough guy actors, and boy-next-door types. The Syrian girl Hanadi Zahlut mentioned at the beginning of the article is a typical example.

If you think the American approach to freedom only involves propaganda and public opinion, you're underestimating its power. It's backed by the American economic, political, and military triad.

Economic sanctions and trade embargoes, in the context of global free trade, can quickly push a country into hyperinflation and mounting debt. At this point, manipulating international financial organizations to halt aid will inevitably lead to a decline in the standard of living, thus breeding discontent. Then, political pressure can easily force many heads of government to compromise. What if someone is stubborn? How about a military coup or armed rebellion? At this stage, the US can clear out its arms inventory, and it's another profitable period for several parties.

Although this thing is complicated, to be honest, the idea has taken root in people's hearts.

Moreover, the caste system is too abstract.

Apart from Indians, no one can accept this system.

Therefore, people generally harbored hostility towards Apocalypse and his country.

But at this moment, a wise man stepped forward and declared his recognition of Apocalypse and his country!

That's right, it has "嘤" in it!
Some people say, what's the point of admitting it with a sob?
A second-rate country!
That's absolutely right.

But Daiying is no ordinary second-rate performer!

It is undeniable that modern Britain has indeed declined, a far cry from its former glory. Consider how powerful Britain once was: leading the world economically through the Industrial Revolution, dominating the globe with its powerful navy, truly the world's superpower. Especially during the height of its power, the "empire on which the sun never sets," the British planted the Union Jack across the world, with colonies visible in all 24 time zones. Even as night fell over the British Isles, the sun shone brightly over South Asia. Statistics show that at its peak, Britain ruled over a total area exceeding 3300 million square kilometers, approximately 25% of the world's land area at the time, and its population reached 4.58 million, again accounting for a quarter of the world's population. Furthermore, Britain was once the world's leading industrial power, handling about 30% of global industrial capacity, earning the title of "the world's factory." As for the military aspect, the British were invincible all over the world, and when they drew their swords, they were at a loss. At that time, almost all the major powers and strong countries that were known in the world had been dealt with by the British.

In short, Britain was once incredibly powerful, and the international order at the time was even referred to as the "Peace under British rule." However, new generations emerge and the old order is replaced by the new, and contemporary Britain is no longer what it once was. With its once vast global colonies gone, the British people are now confined to the British Isles, reminiscing about their past glory while sipping tea. Where is even a trace of the once mighty British Empire?
Undoubtedly, Britain has declined. However, even a fallen camel is bigger than a horse, and a wrecked ship still has three thousand nails. Britain was, after all, once the world's leading power, dominating the world for nearly a century, and its foundation is undeniably deep. It's no exaggeration to say that even in its current decline and extravagant spending, the British can still live off their past achievements for many years to come.

As the once dominant global empire on which the sun never sets, Britain wielded immense international influence. Its former colonies bore the deep imprint of British identity. Even though most of them are now independent, British influence remains.

For example, after the dissolution of the British Empire, Britain created the Commonwealth, placing most of its former colonies and closely related countries under a unified organizational framework. Even today, the Commonwealth has 58 member states, making it the second largest international organization after the United Nations. Although this organization is now quite loosely structured, it remains a platform for exchange; they even held a sports meet the other day, which was quite a lively affair.

The Commonwealth is a truly unique entity. Comprising over fifty countries, aside from colonial legacies from over a century ago, it's more like a network of relationships than an alliance; it's not about transferring influence and sharing resources. While its hard power isn't as formidable as it once was, its soft power, institutional structures, and historical accumulation still give it a place on the international stage.

Of course, this thing has become increasingly malfunctioning over time.

That's right, they hope to cash out as soon as possible!
Since Daiying has always been known for her uncivilized behavior, it's not surprising that she's pulled off some outrageous actions.

But the Apocalypse is really a bit unsettling.

After all, even their own citizens can't accept this thing... Luckily, Dai Ying has never really cared much about her own people.

This country has always had a notorious reputation for being inhumane!
The situation in Daiying is really bad right now, so in order to alleviate the predicament at home, these guys decisively made peace with Tianqi!

They sold out America completely!

Now they see that there's something profitable going on with this certain major Eastern power.

Follow immediately.

They shamelessly tried to get a share of the profits.

Not only that.

They also want to dominate this multilateral agreement.

Some people think this is impossible. They think, "Look at the state they've become, don't they have any self-awareness?"
However, the truth is that the accounts are not calculated that way.

When it comes to playing political games, Yingying is a seasoned pro!
Others understand a principle very well: to take advantage of the situation!

Dai Ying went directly to India, and the two bizarre countries immediately colluded.

Both major powers wield considerable influence.

If they can act in unison, their voice will be quite powerful!

Of course, they are also clever; they know that if they really want to play, they must get the support of a certain major Eastern power.

This is inevitable; if others don't take them along, they can only watch helplessly!
So they came up with a plan.

The rule is: "The money of the wealthy and powerful will be returned in full, while the money of the common people will be divided 30/70!"

Their idea is simple: they will join forces with India to find a major Eastern power and then trick other smaller countries into investing money!
Then, the majority of the profits were divided among the three families!
Of course, there's something to discuss about who is three and who is seven.

At least the Indians think they should get seven!

Both countries are very confident!
I believe I can succeed!

After all, it's all about ripping off ordinary people's money, while keeping the money of the wealthy and powerful untouched!

At that time, both families can get something for nothing, while Dongda can continue with its own plans!
How good!

Unfortunately, a certain major Eastern power will not allow it!

While this move may bring short-term benefits to the University of Tokyo, in the long run it will be more harmful than beneficial!
What money from the wealthy and the common people!
Damn it! This is all my money!

It's all my money!
Are John Bull and Indians important to Dongda University?

The two countries combined don't even have two ships, what good are you?!

My multilateral agreements are not just for show!

Rather, it is for a greater good.

On a grand scale, it's about building a new international order; on a smaller scale, it's about cultivating the market.

What business is it of you two demons and monsters?

But as I said before, it's impossible for that major Eastern power to refuse outright.

It just so happens that many countries have a lot of concerns about this multilateral agreement.

With these two troublemakers, we can get a lot done.

Anyway, that certain major Eastern power isn't in a hurry.

After all, this is not something that can be accomplished in a short time.

A certain major Eastern power watched as these two demons and monsters jumped around wildly!
This resulted in the multilateral agreement being delayed for a long time.

Seeing that a certain major Eastern power remained unyielding on certain issues, these two countries resorted to all sorts of disruptive tactics, forming alliances and using coercion and enticement.

Meanwhile, a certain major Eastern power was engaging in one-on-one negotiations with other countries while watching the show unfold.

And then very quickly, very quickly!

Other countries are getting impatient with these two companies!
Are you two going to do it or not? If not, get out!

Cutting off someone's livelihood is like killing their parents!

In reality, if you walk along the river long enough, you're bound to get your shoes wet.

Whether it's the British or the Indians, constantly engaging in extreme tensions will inevitably lead to trouble.

Moreover, a certain major Eastern power is pulling in the back.

In a sense, this multilateral agreement also distinguishes between friend and foe.

The only purpose of these two troublemakers is to distinguish who wants to make money and who is a troublemaker!
Those who jump up and down with these two, even if they don't have ulterior motives, are just stupid idiots!

Unfortunately, neither of these two things is popular!
