Thomas obviously does not accept Superman's rejection. If Superman does not support it, all plans will be ruined.
It's a pity that his ambitions are great, but his answers are poor and unsatisfactory. After all, he relies on the power of Superman and does not come up with a completely new set of things. He relies entirely on Superman and has no creativity.
We can't blame Thomas, because most people actually succeed first and then determine what happens next. For example, in Bushido, the emperor first used samurai to suppress the nobles, and only after the samurai succeeded did they start bushido.
In addition, during the era of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Confucianism began to be respected only after its advantages were established. The Renaissance was also because the city-states first made money, and then began to seek ideas that opposed the king and religion, and finally found ancient Greece.
Many people are unable to predict their own success in advance, so it is impossible to develop a successful system for themselves in advance. They all succeed first and then start looking for a system.
It is actually very simple to rummage through boxes and cabinets and find different ideas.
After all, when an idea is born, opposing ideas are also born. When a mainstream idea exists, there are always opposing voices, or even several opposing voices.
Where there is Tianzhuism, there is Jainism and Buddhism. Where there is Confucianism, there is Mohism, Legalism, and Taoism. Where there is Christianity, there is Satanism...
There are those who support the king, and naturally there are those who are against the king.
It is very simple to find an idea that is different from the mainstream idea. After success, it is normal to quickly find a different idea to fight against.
It's a pity that Thomas didn't want to change, he just wanted to use superhuman strength to restore everything to the original and become great again. But the original ideas were obviously not in line with the new era, and he would definitely not be able to control it by relying on strength alone.
After all, no matter how powerful Superman is, he is only one person. Chaos occurs in many places at the same time, and he has nothing to do.
"Superman, how can you help me?" Thomas still doesn't give up and still hopes that Superman can cooperate with him to end the troubled world. He feels that as long as Superman agrees, all problems can be solved and no one can resist him.
Superman said: "It is unrealistic to make everything that has failed great again. You should think further, change your past thinking, and welcome new thinking. Because today's social institutions are completely different from before."
The CEO agrees with this. This is also what he fears most. A large group of scumbags have obtained superpowers but have no way to control them. This is very terrifying.
In the past, Walt's company used fame and luxury life as bait to control people with superpowers and barely make them obey. Now that Walt's model has gone bankrupt, there is no other way to stop more and more people with superpowers. Apart from war, he
Can't find any solution.
The new order can only be born from fire. The CEO does not think it can be summed up easily. But he believes that when people with super powers occupy a large amount of social resources, they will naturally look for ideologies that are beneficial to them from history, and things will naturally fall into place when the time comes.
, establish the way of super power.
Thomas did not accept this argument and said: "Superman, you can win wherever you stand, so why refuse? Your power can reshape the world."
"It's true, but it's not something everyone accepts from the bottom of their hearts."
"It doesn't matter at all, they will get used to it. As long as your power can bring resources, everyone will naturally accept it. Even if you continue to let ordinary people suppress superpowers, everyone will surrender." Thomas said that even force can be used.
, said: "As long as you have resources, no matter how big a social contradiction is, you can cover it up. As long as you are invincible, all problems will not be a problem."
Duran believes that what Thomas said makes sense. The question is whether Superman is really invincible. Obviously not, he also has shortcomings.
And with the development of science and technology, it is only a matter of time before a superhuman potion is produced.
Dulan feels that if there is really an absolute power, it can indeed unify the world. Or if there is a method of brainwashing, it can also be done.
But nothing in the world is absolutely without its negative side, even Superman also has his negative side.
Thomas is indeed too conservative, but Duran thinks that the president is a talented person, but unfortunately there is too much black material and too much historical baggage.
Superman didn't want to talk nonsense with Thomas, so he took off and left. Thomas was dumbfounded. Looking at the blue sky and white clouds in the sky and the CEO kneeling on the desert, he didn't know what to do.
Obviously his plan is so perfect, it only needs Superman to make up for it, and it can start smoothly. Why can't Superman understand? Doesn't he want to end the troubled times?
"Not bad, not bad." Just when Thomas was struggling, Duran suddenly appeared. He had been watching the show in secret just now.
"Is it you?" The president and Thomas knew each other, it was Duran who was the driving force behind the troubled times and the black hand of the app.
"You and Superman have two different ideas. Superman wants a plan that can work even without him, but you have formulated a plan that cannot work without Superman. Naturally, we can't agree on it," Duran said.
"With great power comes great responsibility." Thomas said: "Superman is evading his own responsibility."
"No, no, Superman is not evading responsibility. If he wanted to evade, he would not go around providing disaster relief. Superman has positioned himself as the bottom line, not the upper limit. What he does is to protect everyone's foundation, not limit everyone's possibilities. And you
What you ask Superman to do is to limit the possibilities, and ask Superman to help you suppress those who want to make progress. He will definitely not do that." Duran said: "If you first propose a system that everyone accepts, everyone can make progress in it.
and development, Superman will naturally help you maintain the bottom line of the system."
Thomas had to admit that Duran was right, and his plan did use Superman to attack those who opposed it.
"So Superman can't help you, he's not your weapon." Duran said.
"But as long as there are resources, I don't think there is any problem." Thomas said: "As long as beggars can live a luxurious life, who cares? If you wash dishes for a month, you can buy a big house, even if there is no room for improvement.
, everyone will feel at ease."
"If you can do it, you don't need Superman at all." Duran said, "I'm curious, how can you let everyone live such a life?"
This standard of living can be called the happiness of the people of Qi, but even the country of Qi, where the people of Qi are happy, is not so happy.
Gathering all the resources in one place, the materials are extremely abundant, which is the joy of everyone. But the problem is that the materials cannot be gathered all the time, and Duran wants to know what good ideas Thomas can come up with.
"Of course I robbed it!" Thomas' answer was not surprising at all.
"So this is the problem. Superman can indeed grab it, but this will suppress everyone's development instead of protecting everyone's development." Duran said: "You want to use the world as a stepping stone, and Superman hopes to lift it up."
All over the world, these are the two ways of thinking.”
One has the world under his feet, the other has the world on his shoulders.
"I don't think there's anything wrong with the idea." Thomas said stubbornly, "I don't think there's anything bad about the world not developing." He is already the dominant nobleman, and staying put is the best choice.
From his standpoint, there is no problem with this idea.
But for those who are oppressed, they cannot want to be oppressed forever, so they will look for ways to break through the oppression. New ideas, new technologies and other variables will arise. Without variables, there is no way to change.
In order to break through the destiny of Xuanniao of the Yin and Shang Dynasties, King Wen of Zhou came up with the sixty-four hexagrams, which were expanded from the eight trigrams to sixty-four. The "Book of Changes" is the idea of variables.
Nobles don't like variables, but oppressed people need variables and must create them themselves.
