Crossover in the Anime World

The headshot girl was originally a free citizen. She was adopted by the president, transformed, packaged into an elite citizen, and even became the vice president. But it is not easy to maintain her status. She does not dare to expose the fact that she grew up in an orphanage as a child. Anyone who recognizes her will die.

After becoming vice president, she was less willing to listen to the president's plans and less willing to take risks.

With the advent of troubled times, some superpowers who pursue order are also working hard. Some resort to religion, some resort to the old order, and some pursue the new order.

Headshot Girl hopes that the old order will continue, because she is the vice president of the old order and is not sure of development in the new order, so she is very conservative and suppresses people with super powers.

The president hoped that his goddaughter would promote the path of superpowers, but her daughter went in the opposite direction.

"Is everyone doing it for themselves?" The CEO felt very cruel. Except for Superman, everyone on earth seemed to be doing it for themselves: "How could it be like this?"

That's how it was. Dulan thought that the Mohists and Confucians were beasts because Confucians said to love yourself first before loving others, but there was no supervision at all. According to Confucianism, love yourself first and then love others. It all depends on self-awareness.

It is difficult to rely on self-awareness, just like the people of the motherland are so powerful that no one can supervise them, so they go around and over and only love themselves.

Only later did Mencius put forward the standard of "Father of the Law". Only by learning from Yao, Shun, and Yu, and following the standards of Yao, Shun, and Yu can it be regarded as benevolent. Yao, Shun, and Yu not only loved themselves, but also loved the people of the world.

Some people say that Yao, Shun, and Yu were not saints at all, but ordinary people who would usurp the throne and attack each other.

None of this matters. Yao, Shun, and Yu are a beautiful standard. They are not really just three kings. All the good things in the world can be added to the three kings.

As long as everyone follows the beautiful standards of the Three Kings, it will be fine. But who has the right to interpret the standards of the Three Kings? Of course it is in the hands of Confucians.

But with the king of Fa, Confucianism has also accepted supervision. After all, the king is the standard of beauty. No matter how you explain it, "the world has a common benefit" is something that Confucianism cannot change. Everyone may not accept it in their hearts, but they cannot show it.

Of course, Confucianism also failed many times during this period, and metaphysics and Buddhism once surpassed Confucianism. However, after the imperial examination, Confucianism took advantage.

After the Opium War failed, it was useless for Confucian scholar-bureaucrats to talk about Yao, Shun, and Yu. People will ask why Yao, Shun and Yu were so powerful, why did they lose to foreigners?

At this time, the scholar-bureaucrats turned the West into a standard of beauty. The moon abroad was round, the country was peaceful, and there was a spirit of contract. Children abroad could go cross-country for a thousand kilometers in Xiali Camp at 50 degrees Celsius...

All good things come from abroad.

However, compared to the three deceased ancestors Yao, Shun, and Yu, the West does exist in reality after all. When the West had room for development and social resources were unprecedentedly rich, the contradictions in the West were covered up, and everything the scholar-officials said was right. However, as the development space of the West disappears, resources decrease, and conflicts increase, coupled with the high-speed information dissemination in the Internet era, the Western standards of scholar-bureaucrats are not good.

However, the scholar-bureaucrats will not give up. What they need is a standard to change from one Western country to another. Anyway, they can boast a lot.

Anyway, there are nearly two hundred foreign countries, so just brag about them one by one. Because only by mastering beautiful standards can we have the right to speak. They don't really want to brag about a country, but they want to create an utopia and a carrier of beautiful standards.

But the problem is that reality is not a paradise. As long as there are countries in reality, there are contradictions, so the scholar-officials are just blowing off one by one.

This shows Mencius's cleverness. He did not look for a standard in reality, but a standard between reality and legend. Yao, Shun, and Yu have some records in history, but there are not many records, so no matter how they beautify them, they can't find any flaws.

Everyone pursues beauty and hopes that their lives will be better, but in reality there are many contradictions and people cannot feel the beauty. Therefore, if someone gives a beautiful direction, everyone will flock to it.

Idol characters in modern society are actually a kind of selling beauty. Idols are far away from everyone. It is difficult for everyone to see the idol’s private life and shortcomings. They can only face the idol’s character. The character can be perfect. , there will be many people willing to pay for the personality.

When scholar-bureaucrats look to foreign countries to set their standards, even developed countries still have contradictions, so their beautiful standards are no longer attractive, which is a sign of idol character collapse.

What everyone accepts is beauty. If the beauty collapses, these scholar-bureaucrats will naturally be eliminated.

Unless they can still find a true ideal country as a standard, in which there is no buying or selling or killing, and can carry all the good things. But the question is where to find such an ideal country?

Some people may ask, since there is no Utopia, why not continue to play the game of Yao, Shun, and Yu?

Of course, it was because Yao, Shun, and Yu were defeated, and everyone was unwilling to accept a standard of failure. Although Confucianism was suppressed by Buddhism and Taoism in the past, Yao, Shun, and Yu never failed. But the foreigners' powerful ships and cannons caused Yao, Shun, and Yu to fail.

Foreigners have their own standards, which is different from the Yuan Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty. The Yuan Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty still upheld Yao, Shun and Yu in the end, so although they failed in terms of force, they did not fail in terms of standards.

But the foreigners brought a new set of standards and a new set of game rules. Confucianism is not just a failure of force, but also a failure of standards.

Of course, foreigners also have needs for beauty, and their standard of beauty is ancient Greece, an ancient civilization.

Ancient Greece is the most beautiful, the birthplace of civilization, with philosophy, knowledge, and three heroes. All beauty begins here.

In fact, Western civilization has nothing to do with ancient Greece and more to do with ancient Rome. Ancient Greece, and even Pan-Hellenism, mainly went in the direction of the Middle East.

But modern Westerners cannot talk about Rome, because if they talk about Rome, many standards will not be grasped. Because the development of Rome was very smooth, with clear development rules, and there were many contradictions in it.

Rome has a clear development path from the monarchy, the Senate, the Citizens' Assembly, the Big Three, the post-Big Three, the empire, religiousization, schism... you will find that the West has actually been going around in circles, treading water.

So let’s talk about ancient Greece, because ancient Greece stayed at the parliamentary system and could not go any further.

Why is there no progress? It shows that the parliamentary system is the best. Taking ancient Greece as a standard, there is no need to consider why Rome entered the empire, why Rome promoted religion, and why aristocrats promoted nationalism...

Once you consider the problems Rome had, it wasn't pretty at all.

Ancient Greece was good, because it was trapped on the peninsula, never developed, and always maintained a parliament, which was very beautiful for the nobles. So ancient Greece became the standard of beauty, and everyone learned the best from ancient Greece.

Some people may want to ask why the scholar-official didn't brag about ancient Greece? Ancient Greek civilization is a fictitious concept, similar to Yao, Shun, and Yu.

Of course, this is because the ancient Greek civilization was not adapted to the local environment. Ancient Greece was a small country with few people, and the West was also a small country with few people. As a standard, there is no problem. But the mysterious country in the East is very vast and rich in resources. Although ancient Greece is beautiful, it is obviously not suitable for a complex environment.

Moreover, ancient Greece could not carry the beauty of "common benefit for the whole world". Although the three heroes of ancient Greece could serve as the Yao, Shun, and Yu of intellectuals, they could not be the Yao, Shun, and Yu of everyone.

In short, the scholar-bureaucrats used it in ancient Greece, but the effect was not good. After all, most people would think that a great civilization should survive, rather than suddenly disappear. A civilization that has not survived cannot be said to be beautiful.

Although ancient Greece cannot be said to be completely gone, it did not develop and eventually became more and more closed. Rome, which developed during the same period, performed much better than ancient Greece.
