Chapter 657: Dialectics and Thinking under the Snow
Shenmu Guang, who was able to deceive beautiful women in their prime when he was only fourteen or fifteen years old, probably won't be able to cheat again after today.
A handsome face, the bonus of a star and a developed mind, these are the three factors that Shenmu Guang used to deceive young girls. Now, Kusaka Yingxiong has directly exposed his true face in front of so many media. He certainly can't become a star, but there is still the risk of relying on his handsome face and scumbag skills to deceive people.
The Kusaka Hero over there was indeed not bragging. He was really very active. He rushed over and started punching and kicking, each of which was aimed at disfiguring Kamiki Mitsuru. Hojo Kyosuke was deeply moved, but he was not sure whether this guy was helping him vent his anger or was jealous of Kamiki Mitsuru's handsome face.
After fighting for a while, in order to prevent this new brother from being unable to make it in the entertainment industry in the future, he quickly called out to Xisaki and asked him to send someone to pull him off, and of course, took Nishizawa Yang away as well.
This time, the Tsuruta Masao gang, which had been as lively as a raging fire just now, disappeared in an instant.
Kenzo Chikano on the stage began to talk about the current chaos in the literary world as if he was giving a victory speech, and his efforts to clear up the chaos, and by the way, he looked forward to the future. In a word, he is doing an extremely competent job as president, and please continue to look forward to his activeness and support him.
The guests in the audience were also very respectful, but while applauding, their eyes couldn't help but drift towards Hojo Kyosuke.
When Kenzo Chino first came on stage and started to fight back, the bigwigs below the stage were still marveling at the president's extraordinary means, who could make things happen with a wave of his hand. However, when they saw Secretary Hojo Kyosuke and his subordinates distributing information and maintaining order, everyone gradually came to their senses.
This is not a confrontation between Kenzo Chikano and Masao Tsuruta, but Hojo Kyosuke is behind the scenes manipulating Kenzo Chikano. After discovering this, many bigwigs, except for Seiichi Morimura who knew everything from the beginning, lamented that young people are so terrifying.
This was also the effect Hojo Kyosuke wanted. Among the literary giants present, there were certainly some who had grudges against Tsuruta Masao. Even those who had no grudges were happy to see such a person suffer misfortune. However, they were not necessarily happy to see Tsuruta Masao, a peer, being kicked away by a teenage high school kid like Hojo Kyosuke.
If Kenzo Chino attacked Masao Tsuruta, it would be a power struggle. But if it was Hojo Kyosuke who attacked Masao Tsuruta, it would be a challenge to the rules! Again, seniority is everything in the culture of seniority. Even if the person in a high position is a loser, it is not the turn of the talented young man to say a word.
If you can knock down Masashi Tsuruta today, will you have to pee on my face tomorrow?
If it was Hojo Kyosuke who was on the stage just now, I'm afraid that as soon as he opened his mouth, no matter what he said, an old man would stand up and shout "how insolent" and criticize him for not knowing etiquette. No matter what, as long as he has this bad reputation, Hojo Kyosuke will never be able to win any award in the future. Because all the judges are old men.
Everyone is a vested interest. What they are protecting is not Masashi Tsuruta, but the rules that are beneficial to them.
Therefore, Hojo Kyosuke did not tell everything to Kenzo Chino from the beginning, but pushed him out when the time came, and then let his subordinates take care of the specific details. However, Kenzo Chino did not lose out, although he helped Hojo Kyosuke take the blame, but the limelight and credit were all his.
All Hojo Kyosuke needed to do was to stand there quietly, calmly accept those surprised, suspicious and questioning looks, and respond with a humble and elegant smile.
Yes, I did it, because Tsuruta Masao wanted to make trouble for me, so I made him spit blood here and made him disappear from the literary world. If you old guys want to try again, think about Tsuruta Masao and his apprentice first.
For some reason, Osaka Tsuyoshi looked at the handsome and graceful Hojo Kyosuke and seemed to read a sentence from his seemingly humble smile:
"I have a suggestion. Pick an opponent who is at the same level as you."
Offstage, Yukinoshita Yukino had already forced herself to switch seats with Yamauchi Sakura. Even with her concentration, she couldn't think calmly between two super fun people. Of course, there was no way Sakura would obey. But Yukinoshita sneered:
"It seems like it's time to improve the welfare benefits of the service department."
"What? Yukino is going to invest in decorating the club room into Disneyland?" Yamauchi Sakura said excitedly.
"No, I think we can arrange for the members to have a physical examination every six months. After all, didn't Hojo fight a fight in order to complete the last commission? Physical examinations are necessary."
Hearing this, Yamauchi Sakura immediately stared at Yukinoshita with a gloomy look and muttered:
"...Xukino, you've become bad."
You taught me, teacher!
Seeing Sakura's angry but silent look, Yukinoshita suddenly found the fun of being a bad guy. But this "atrocity" was not in line with her justice, so she didn't pursue it, but just changed seats and said nothing more. If she didn't really want to study Hojo Kyousuke, she wouldn't do such a thing.
But just because Yukino let Yamauchi Sakura go doesn't mean Oono will let her go.
"Hey, hey, hey, physical examination, take me with you, I can sponsor you on behalf of the Yukinoshita family. It is very important for adolescent girls to pay attention to physical changes in time..."
"Wulusai, you are already in your twenties, you don't need to change the size of your bra anymore..."
"Nonsense, I'm only seventeen! Your Kyousuke told me this!"
"He has no say!" Yingliang rejected it outright.
"..."
Listening to the two people around her attacking each other, Yukinoshita breathed a sigh of relief. One sister was already difficult to deal with, and Sakura was simply a nightmare. The girl felt that Jesus did not suffer so much torture on the day he was betrayed by Judas. After all, He would be resurrected. As for herself, even if she died, she would not be able to get rid of her sister's entanglement.
The girl thought painfully and happily that she both despised and enjoyed her sister's love.
But the focus now is not the two funny people beside him, but the man standing like a sculpture under the podium, Hojo Kyosuke.
Weak and ugly people will immediately exclude others out of jealousy. What is surprising is that the more outstanding people are, the harder their lives are.
This is the root of Yukinoshita Yukino's determination to change the world.
Today, the girl was invited and came in her best clothes. She thought she was just sharing the joy of Hojo's success and congratulating him, but she didn't expect to see such an ugly scene.
When she was in elementary school, her indoor shoes were hidden sixty times. However, Yukinoshita Yukino did not cry in despair, nor did she give in. Instead, she calmly examined herself and the world, and looked coldly at those who did the wrong things and were still complacent.
She realized that being isolated and bullied was not her fault. Was being cute also a mistake? Should she be as stupid and ugly as others? No, it was not like that. She was born cute and became even cuter through her own efforts. There was nothing wrong with that. What was wrong was the wrong people and the wrong world. They needed guidance.
Even though she was just an elementary school student, Yukinoshita Yukino was able to understand this truth. At most, she was left with the sequelae of "not being good at dealing with dogs". Well, her indoor shoes were hidden by dogs several times.
Now that she is a high school student, and a hundred times cuter and smarter than she was in elementary school, how could she not understand the situation that Hojo Kyosuke is facing?
If you just work hard to eliminate your enemies, that effort will not improve yourself and therefore will not solve the problem.
Yukinoshita Yukino knew this truth, so after practicing Aikido and confirming that she could knock down those wrong people with one punch, she looked inward and continued to enrich herself, and one of them was practicing the "art of controlling people's hearts".
And that Tsuruta Masashi was walking on what Yukinoshita believed was the wrong path.
At first, when Yukinoshita heard what Tsuruta said, she also had the same worries as Eriri, thinking that Hojo Kyosuke was going to do something bad. It was not that she believed in Hojo Kyosuke's ability, but she was well-informed and knew Tsuruta Masao better than Eriri. She knew how powerful he was in the literary world, especially in the mystery novel world, so she was worried.
As a result, such a big man, with such a perfect rhetoric, was easily killed by Hojo Kyosuke, as if he had lifted a heavy weight with ease, as easily as kicking a small stone at his feet. Why is that? Because Tsuruta Masajou's efforts were only to eliminate the enemy, not to improve himself. His own weaknesses were too fatal.
But, Hojo, what about you?
Up to now, your efforts have only been to eliminate the enemies, but what will happen after eliminating Masashi Tsuruta and Naoki Nishizawa?
The problem you are facing has not disappeared. You have only solved Masao Tsuruta himself, but the impact of what he said will not disappear.
What the wrong people say and do are naturally wrong, and everyone will agree with this, but what is the reality?
The girl Yukinoshita's mind was extremely calm, and everything was arranged and integrated in her mind.
The current situation is that Hojo has proved that Tsuruta Masao was a wrong person, so what he said was naturally wrong. But now we can't bring up the past again, because those words are actually correct in essence. Once people's memories are awakened, they will suddenly realize that "Ah, although those two people are scum in the literary world, they are right. Hojo Kyosuke's work really shouldn't have won the award."
So, Hojo, what are you going to do now?
Yukinoshita Yukino began to put herself in the situation and think about it.
The girl's light blue eyes were particularly eye-catching in the dim venue. Eriri, who was standing next to her, took a quick glance and thought that might be the "light of wisdom." So she lowered her head and looked at herself in Kashiko's big eyes, and discovered that her own azure eyes were as beautiful as blue crystals.
What? I’m pretty smart and wise!
The girl smiled happily, lifted her little feet, and couldn't wait to hear the chores' acceptance speech.
How to do it?
Hojo Kyosuke is now facing the same dilemma that Yukinoshita thought. Defeating the enemy is only a path to victory, but it cannot be a means of winning. If he can win through shady means, he will surely suffer backlash in the future.
He made so many efforts, not to leave the impression that "Hojo Kyosuke is only good at intrigue" to so many bigwigs present.
What to do now?
If he wanted to eliminate the influence caused by Masao Tsuruta and push himself to victory, it was very simple. What he needed to do now was not to overturn his previous words, but to fill those people's brains with new theories and replace those memories.
Human memory is sometimes so easily fooled.
Let’s take a simple example. A classmate tells you that cats tend to look to the left when they walk, because there is a dog on the left, and cats need to be alert to the dog running out. Then the next moment, the cat’s owner appears and says that her cat tends to look to the right, because she always throws dried fish to the right. She did not directly refute the other person’s words, but directly threw out another completely different set of reasons. Who would you believe at this time? Of course, the cat’s owner, because she is more authoritative and more credible. The previous memory will be easily replaced.
So what Hojo Kyosuke has to do now is very simple and clear.
Go ahead, it’s decided to be you, Mr. Seiichi Morimura!
Where on earth did such a young child get so many calculations?
Morimura Seiichi was confused. He sighed silently, then slowly stood up and walked up to the podium amid the puzzled gazes of his old friends.
Really, this old man has been doing good deeds all his life, is it just to support you today?
Walking up the stairs on the side of the podium, Seiichi Morimura turned his head to look at Kyosuke Hojo and saw that the guy was grinning at him foolishly.
Alas, young people are like this. Who says I am a good person?
The old man sighed in his heart again and walked up to the podium resolutely.
Kenzo Chikano on the stage first pretended to be surprised and excited, solemnly introduced the identity of Mr. Seiichi Morimura to the guests below the stage again, and then left the stage obediently.
"Hey, how did you manage to invite this teacher?"
Kenzo Chino quietly came to Hojo Kyosuke and inquired. The latter just kept laughing but refused to say a word.
"Could it be that you also surrendered like Nishizawa Yang?" Kenzo Chino guessed.
When Hojo Kyosuke heard this, he elbowed the other party, causing Kenzo Chino to bend over in pain.
"Have some respect for me, Mr. Morimura is not that kind of person." He said seriously.
"But you are. To be honest, in my mind, you are much more insidious than those two Tsuruta guys." Kenzo Chino said sincerely.
Hojo Kyosuke said angrily: "You, a pervert who promotes silicone lovers, have no right to criticize me!" (End of this chapter)
