Hogwarts Gymnastics Professor

Chapter 208
If you want to do something in the European continent, you must abide by the traditional rules of the European continent, otherwise it will be difficult to win the hearts and minds of the European continent.

It took Lockhart about a morning to sum up a central idea from the conversation between Maxim and Polydev. Their ideas are very real, because in terms of magical culture, Britain is on the edge of European magical culture.

Britain was hardly affected by the Grindelwald Rebellion suffered by the European continent, and Europeans did not feel deeply about the evil deeds of Voldemort and Death Eaters suffered by the British.

That being the case, Lockhart decided to solve this problem from a different angle. Looking at many things from another angle, there will be new gains and handling methods.

In 35 years, Chu Fasui.Sui said, "I'm not guilty." Chu said, "I'm a barbarian."

Lockhart thought of a famous passage in "Historical Records".

Although it is said that "the Spring and Autumn Period is a war without righteousness", the Spring and Autumn Period has not yet completely collapsed and the morality of "the teacher is famous" still limits the annexation of the weak country by the strong country to a certain extent, which can be said to be "the pressure of international public opinion". After being repeatedly rejected by the vassal states of the Central Plains, Chu State chose "I am a barbarian."

Perhaps the UK can also adopt the same approach. Since people in the cultural and educational circles of the European magic circle do not approve of the UK’s approach, it might as well leave them alone. They think that “I’m a barbarian” and start doing things without all kinds of unspoken rules. .

This approach and slogan of "I am a barbarian" is actually a higher level of wisdom in Lockhart's view.

In Lockhart's previous life, China was clearly developing better and better, but it was still not recognized by some countries, and some people proposed a trend of thought called "Entry into Customs".

This trend of thought compares China to Jianzhou Jurchen during the Ming Dynasty, and regards some European and American countries that currently control the mainstream of the world's cultural circles as Ming Dynasty.

Of course, this is not because China is a barbarian, but because the West regards China as a barbarian. Under the current "Western-centric" world system, China is a "barbarian".

For 400 years since modern times, Chinese civilization has been a marginal civilization, while European civilization, Western civilization, and Onsa civilization are the mainstream civilizations. Whether you agree or not, China is a "wild land" on the edge of the world.

Today, Britain is also a barbarian to the European continent.

If the barbarians acted in accordance with the rules formulated by the "Da Ming", then the system formulated by the Ming Dynasty would always be able to benefit themselves and suppress the "barbarians", resulting in the phenomenon that "everything the barbarians do is wrong".

To solve this kind of problem, for the barbarian British magic world, entering customs is a very effective choice.

Abandon the set of unspoken rules of the European continent, instead of talking to them, but to develop their own military, technological and economic strength, and wait until the military, technological and economic strength presents a crushing posture, as a barbarian In the British wizarding world, you can choose to enter the customs.

After entering the customs, there will naturally be great Confucianism to identify the scriptures for me.

This is the real thing that happened after the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs in Chinese history.

It is undoubtedly an act of asking for trouble with the wizards of the European continent under the rules specified by the magic circle of the European continent. Anyway, it just doesn't make sense.

In the Internet public opinion field of Huaxia in the previous life, I don’t know how many “Western lackeys”, “spiritual Westerners” and “public knowledge” existed. Groups who master the world’s mainstream culture don’t even need to go out in person, there is a group of “dogs” to help them control public opinion .

History has proved countless times that as "barbarians" and those who master the mainstream culture and set the rules of the world, they will never win if they speak reason.

But as long as you gain military, technological, and economic advantages, and then enter the customs as a barbarian, after successfully entering the customs, countless people will naturally stand up and speak for you.

After the Manchus entered the customs as "barbarians", it was this group of people who liked to talk about great principles that fell to the "barbarians" of the Manchus at the first time, and it was also this group of people who later defended the Manchus with great principles countless times.

Confucian statues were also enshrined in Confucian Temples in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, but the Confucius on the portrait was a man dressed as a barbarian with money and rattails. I don’t know how many people in the cultural and educational circles pay homage to such Confucius statues.

Such things also have a long tradition in continental Europe, especially in France, a country that controls mainstream European culture and public opinion.

On March 1815, 3, Napoleon fled from Elba Island to France, assembled an army, overthrew the newly restored Bourbon Dynasty, and proclaimed himself emperor again.

During this period, the news headlines in Paris newspapers were also gradually changing.

At the very beginning, when Napoleon just took out his captivity, the headlines of the news were "Monster from Corsica Lands in Port Juan", "The Unspeakable Ogre King Approaches Grace", "The Despicable Kleptocrat Into Grenoble.

Then, gradually, as Napoleon gained military and political victories step by step, the newspaper headlines gradually changed into another look. "Napoleon Bonaparte Captures Lyons", "General Napoleon Approaches Fontainebleau", "His Majesty the Supreme Emperor Arrives Today in His Faithful Paris".

Lockhart already had some calculations in his mind, and Lockhart had already crossed off his schedule to entertain Maxim and Paulie Dev with Dumbledore on Saturday afternoon and Sunday.

Lockhart notified Dobby, Hermione, Lupine, Wood, Sirius and Pavlovsky at the former headquarters of the British Ministry of Magic, which is now the headquarters of the British Council of Magic. Members of the ghost society in relevant parties are ready to discuss the "entry" plan.

Of course, this plan cannot be called "entrance" when the British magic world faces the European magic world. It should be called the "cross-sea" plan.

After the Ghost Club's memories and discussions, it was decided that the fight for people in the cultural and educational circles of the European continent will not be the focus of work for the time being. Of course, it will continue to work on the subtle influence of ordinary wizards.

In the next period of time, the Ghost Society and the British Wizarding Council will vigorously support various commodities that can be "dumped" to Europe, and strive to control the economy of the European continent as soon as possible.

At the same time, the support for the guerrillas in various countries and regions in the European continent should be strengthened, and more guidance should be provided at the same time, so as to speed up the process of liberating the magical world in the European continent.

As for the thoughts and opinions of ordinary wizards in the European continent's magic circle, we can wait until they are liberated, and there is no need to rush for a while.
