Monkey Forest (V): From "Core" to "Sun"
Octavian was the Monkey King, but only for fighting other monkeys. When it comes to leading people to fight for territory with human's saws, the traditional role of "monkey king" is far from enough. The subject is so profound that most monkeys are puzzled. So, to explain this matter to the monkey people in simple terms, it fell on the head of the Preaching Team.
Germain and his team had to think hard about it. After all, this was a situation the monkeys had never been in since time immemorial, so there was no ready explanation. Germain and the other members held 19 meetings for three consecutive days, day and night, and finally finalized the following outline of their preaching:
——1.The history of all monkey groups shows that having the Monkey King at the core is the key to success in the competition among other groups.The stronger the cohesion of the monkey? king, the higher the fighting effectiveness and the greater the victorious possibility of the monkey flock.The fight against the human's saws is an exceptionally difficult task compared with the previous struggles. Octavian must therefore become the core monkey king in order to give the group unprecedented super power多望；
——2.The great and magnificent history of the monkey clan shows that the Monkey King played a decisive role in the development of the monkey clan. In the hands of different Monkey Kings, the expansion rate of the monkey territory is different, and the expansion rate of the monkey scale is also different. Octavian is by far the smartest Monkey King, and of course he should be called the "core" Monkey霉涨；
——3.Compared with the previous Monkey Kings, Octavian was a once in 500 years genius. So far, he has only equaled the rank of ordinary monkey kings in the group, which is a serious waste of leadership talent; Octavian deserves a place commensurate with his talent, which is to be at the heart of the monkey herd；
——4.In the traditional sense, the Monkey King is only embodied in the preferential mating right, the preferential habitat right, the preferential eating right. In general, the Monkey King's leadership over the monkey group is very loose. Most of the time, the monkey people still have their own ideas, their own foraging, their own leisure, their own reproduction, their own quarrel. Anyway, go one's own way;
——5.Octavian, the Monkey King, the heart of the pack, was very different, but the right of priority is only the most basic form. The point is that the whole group must be united around the Core Monkey King instructions. Whatever the Monkey King decides to do is the top priority that the monkey people must earnestly implement; Whatever the Monkey King opposes, the monkey people must not do蕊肥；
——6.If the monkey people have any new or better ideas, it must be an illusion, because the latest and better ideas will surely come only from the Octavian Core Monkey King of once in five hundred years. If the other monkey people had a better idea than Octavian, wouldn't he have been the Core Monkey King long ago? Thus, it is unlikely that any monkey man would think more than the Core Monkey King Octavian瞧柔；
——7.Since only Octavian's ideas are the latest, the best and the most correct, all we have to do is to study Octavian's ideas at all times, follow the pulse of Octavian's ideas, and do our best to put Octavian's ideas into practice；
——8.Eat peach do not forget the guide-monkey, monkeys should always have a grateful heart when they enjoy the happy life brought about by the idea of Octavian, and remember every teaching of Octavian more firmly. The Core Monkey King Octavian's thought is an inexhaustible source of happiness for the monkey people, and a magic weapon for the monkey group to fight against human's saws;
——9.As long as the above points are achieved, the monkeys will certainly become invincible, ever-victorious, and a brave and elite division against human's saws.
The above nine theses were presented by Germain to Octavian, who, after a moment's silence, raised his eyes to Germain and said slowly: " Nice outline. It's deep. But it's not shallow enough. Most monkeys don't understand. They don't necessarily understand. "
"So, Your Majesty, what do you think we should do? " Germain asked carefully, his heart beating wildly. He had not expected this outcome; he had expected Octavian to appreciate the preaching outline."" It's like an older monkey telling a story to a younger monkey, using more metaphors, so that the younger monkeys can understand it." Octavian, with a click, took a bite of the big juicy peach on his hand, chewing as though casually saying.
Sven and clever Preaching Team leader Germain, instantly enlightened. “I see. I'm on it.” With that, he jumped from an air root on the lateral branch of the central banyan tree. The monkeys who came to report to Octavian liked to climb on the roots of this branch.
With the outline, inspired by Octavian's "metaphor," the members of the Preaching Team went down to the trees separately and began to preach vividly about "Octavian's Core" with the monkey people: “The core, like the sun in the sky, as soon as the sun rises, all the earth will see clearly,; the sun goes down, nothing can see clearly. Core Monkey King octavian is like our monkey sun, With Octavian at the head, it was like working in bright daylight, seeing everything, solving everything. If you do it without Octavian, it is like wandering around in the dark night, doing nothing, but may be in danger.”
This metaphor is easy to understand, and the monkey people who are quickly surrounded by complex words in the outline are suddenly enlightened. “Octavian is the sun of the monkeys!” A monkey was excited by the fact that he had suddenly become enlightened, and shouted out his own understanding of the metaphor. When the other monkeys heard this, they felt that this sentence was much easier to understand than what the Preaching Team had said. As a result, they all abandoned the complex argumentation process of "Core Monkey King", and simply and rudely used this cry directly. Shouted excitedly：
"Octavian is the sun of the monkeys!"
" Octavian is the sun of monkeys! "
"Octavian is the sun of monkeys!"
…
This call ended that call, one after another, until there was a great cry like a forest falling down. The monkey people felt happier than they had ever felt in their power to resolve.
The "Octavian Core" thing thus became, but monkeys generally don't like the abstract word "core," they prefer to say "Sun Octavian" or "Octavian sun." It even ended up being a spontaneous greeting：The first monkey says hello to the other monkey this way: “Octavian sun脚草！”And the other one answers： “Sun Octavian!” Then they smiled at each other, just as they used to ask each other "Did you eat?" Or "Hello!" the same.
Octavian did not object to this. Because he was as tolerant and benevolent as the sun, he did not care about words, he understood that the monkey people meant the same thing as he did, and that was enough.
