Chapter 375: Summary of the End of Volume Five

Review the layout and writing ideas of all parties.

The title of the fifth volume is *Harry Potter and the Minister for Magic*. Just like the fifth volume of the original work, it just followed the outline smoothly and continued to write the story. Specifically to the title of this volume, or if one has to find some characteristics, it is not easy to find.

The overall writing tone of the fifth volume highlights "going against the original work," because quite a few book fans fed back that when reading the fifth volume of the original work, they always felt a bit stifled, so in this article, the rhythm of singing all the way was simply adopted. Except for Bellatrix becoming a pathetic loser, the plans of everyone else were almost very smooth.

First, sort out Yanayev's strategy and plan. His general strategy is to raise the upper limit of the Wizarding World (in his previous life, he knew that the Wizarding World was suppressed by Death), obtain absolute power in the wizard group, and then exchange his prestige in the Wizarding World to the Muggle World by breaking the Statute of Secrecy bit by bit, realizing overall reform and hegemony, etc. The most important point in this is that wizards participate in or even master the Muggle army.

For the Muggle military, they usually wouldn't be happy to have outsiders intervene, so Yanayev planned the battle between the Order of the Phoenix and the Death Eaters, intending to establish a wizard army in the Wizarding World first, and then slowly contact military power through military cooperation between the two worlds. But because of the lie of the painting, Harry suppressed the outbreak of war while maintaining the powerful wizard deterrent, which seemed to disrupt Yanayev's plan, but in fact, it didn't matter. After Muggles understood the powerful wizard deterrent, they definitely wanted to solve this problem. There were no geniuses of the era in the Soviet Union, so establishing an elite wizard army became the only solution to deal with the powerful wizard deterrent. In chronological order, this also caught up with the Chechen riots, so Yanayev took advantage of the situation and adopted Plan B, directly carrying out joint military operations, preparing for subsequent mastery of the army and initiating reforms.

Yanayev's Plan B's actions in the British Wizarding World were to support Jim Hack to master (or at least infiltrate) the British high-level. From the beginning, the Ministry of Magic was under Yanayev's control. He tried to push Hack to the position of Prime Minister while taking advantage of the situation to weaken the British Wizarding World, and by the way, test the problem of Horcruxes. There are many doubts about the resurrection of Horcruxes, or rather, places that have not been determined. Is it necessary to collect seven Horcruxes, or is it fine as long as there is no conflict? In other words, he wanted to test whether destroying one or more Horcruxes would prevent Voldemort's resurrection or accelerate his resurrection? Because although Yanayev used "using a wizard army to fight Voldemort" as his slogan to cultivate power, he actually didn't want to really pull the army to fight Voldemort (he would feel distressed if his own power was consumed a little), he hoped more to use other means to solve this hidden danger.

In order to solve the problem of Voldemort, Yanayev had considered using the Order of the Phoenix as a gun, but he soon discovered that only the parent generation (Sirius, Lupin, Snape) in the entire Order of the Phoenix was C, so he simply changed his thinking, focused on cooperating with Snape, and finally saw Snape take Harry to completely solve Voldemort's problem smoothly.

Secondly, review the situation of the White House. First, there is indeed factional struggle among them, but it is not the kind of evenly matched struggle, but the Magical Congress unilaterally excluding Tang Tang Nade, a new congressman. They feel that Tang Tang Nade's layout of eating in both worlds is too ugly. Moreover, because only Tang Tang Nade is optimistic about Harry, plus the consistent "we must oppose whatever the Soviet Union supports," the White House is preparing to bet on the other end, that is, by helping Death Eaters master the ability to "resurrect Voldemort anytime, anywhere," so as to push Death Eaters to the peak of power in the British Wizarding World, and then go to cooperate with Death Eaters. So in the early stage, they sent out the abandoned child Krest to attract others' attention, and the real main line is William gradually gaining presence among the Death Eaters, and making a decision in the middle and late stages, choosing someone to bet on—unfortunately, he chose Bella, and then lost the bet.

Facing this situation, or rather, for the future of Britain and Harry under this situation, the three elders started from different angles and finally presented different thoughts.

First, talk about Snape's plan. He actually didn't think things would become like this at the beginning, and there were several times of improvisation. But at the beginning, he had already determined two things: one was to cooperate with the Ministry of Magic to solve the Death Eaters, and the other was to cooperate with Lu Xiusi, using the exposure of the diary to lead out the lie of "Deng Buliduo's Horcrux." For Lu Xiusi, this lie was to make Bella throw the rat and fear the weapon; for Snape, this lie was to maintain the deterrent after solving Voldemort (he had probably guessed the meaning of the deterrent during the summer vacation).

Of course, in this process, Snape was not entirely without selfishness. He is now a T0-level figure in the British Wizarding World. He wants to take advantage of the situation to obtain a little political status and deepen his control over Hogwarts. These are all human nature, and he has no children, so sooner or later it will be left to Harry, which is completely acceptable in his own heart.

Lupin's plan is relatively pure, wholeheartedly planning for the future of werewolves. He saw a new direction full of hope, so he actively carried out practice. In his heart, the werewolf matter is what he cares about most and hopes to solve most. So you can see that he doesn't really care about the tasks of the Order of the Phoenix, and he only provides a little off-field assistance to Harry and their plans, and he doesn't even dare to respond to Tonks's feelings. Before Gilnis truly becomes rich and strong, Lupin doesn't want to think about other things.

Sirius is more taking one step at a time. He has always insisted on acting while ensuring Harry is happy, so he uses his little cleverness more to judge the "optimal solution at the moment," without any grand strategy.

In summary, Sirius chose to comply with the rules to become a capitalist in the most secure way, supporting Harry's life in the way of a group company and the Mafia.

Lupin would say that Harry is his junior, but he is not the only person in the world who needs care and help. Gilnis can objectively serve as a backing for Harry, but it is more of Lupin's subjective personal ideal. Of course, forced by the limitation of vision, more is forced by the total number and strength of the werewolf group, Lupin's strategy is to hope to live steadily in the form of a "third-world country in a corner," belonging to having dreams but no ambition, life can be lived, but the ability to resist risks is not strong (just like Gilnis in WOW history).

Snape has always benchmarked Harry against Deng Buliduo. After he figured out the truth of the wizard deterrent, he would speculate that Deng Buliduo actively became a deterrent, and then believed that Harry had a great power dream of maintaining the deterrent. So for this great ideal with a bit of misunderstanding, he tried his best to provide help to Harry, and all Snape could do was use all schemes to help Harry unify the Wizarding World.

These people have the ability to act, and the Order of the Phoenix is indeed, except for these few big Cs, the rest are all lying flat.

Aberforth is depressed after the scandal (actually he is also depressed in the original work), Doge plays himself as a president who is gradually fascinated by power and forgets his original intention (benchmarking Scrimgeour in the original work), Moody indeed wants to find Horcruxes, but the old thing has become useless. The rest, like Diggle and Vance, are purely making up the numbers, and they are also making up the numbers in the original work. Except for the three of the parent generation, the only thing the entire Order of the Phoenix accomplished was Krest, who was thrown around and even always a cook and bartender. He at least really pulled up Deng Buliduo's Army.

Not to mention the Death Eaters, they are not just lying flat, they are completely worse than lying flat. Lu Xiusi left a way out from the beginning, as long as the benefits are enough, he will defect at any time; Bella can't even discuss big things, from focusing on wanting to resurrect Voldemort to discovering that she couldn't resurrect him, she has always been led by the nose by the White House or the Ministry of Magic. Of course, Lu Xiusi is not without ambition, but his own magic level is insufficient, and he cannot organize enough loyal armed forces, so he can only take the second best with the self-knowledge that is still sober.

Under such circumstances, the Death Eaters are indeed not a problem worth worrying about.

Next, talk about Tang Tang Nade and his emotional line. Regarding his character setting, I will talk about it later. Just looking at the actions of this volume, he is relatively failed.

In terms of setting, for most of the fifth year, Tang Tang Nade was at home filming Marvel while secretly trying to reproduce Iron Man's armor with the power of magic. Then, at the summer dance, he noticed that Alina accepted the invitation. First, Tang Tang Nade suspected this belonged to Luo En's little thoughts, so he specially matched Alina with a cross-dressing dance partner, feeling complacent in his heart, thinking he had sent an assist to Luo En. But in fact, Luo En was disgusted by the dancing of demons, and Alina didn't fall in love with Luo En, so that scene ended hastily.

Before Christmas, Tang Tang Nade noticed that Luo En and Hermione seemed to have signs again, so when Alina received the dance invitation, he gave her a death order. Alina had no choice but to adopt a direct kiss without any technical content, and then the effect was excellent, and Luo En was trapped.

During Christmas, Tang Tang Nade considered that Zhang Qiu had beaten him before, and was also worried about being hated by Harry, so he decided to take out something real (Rainbow of Focus). Coincidentally, he came, and talked to the Ministry of Magic about a Rosa Parks plan, which could just be arranged for Alina to implement. This move is on the fifth floor.

Next is the analysis like Zhang Qiu, in the process of getting along, Alina gradually fell in love with Hermione, wanted to give up Luo En, and was afraid of being recognized by Tang Tang Nade, making bad moves one after another. And under the intentional calculation of Harry and Zhang Qiu, Tang Tang Nade was really deceived during the public class.

Finally, if I want to explain the problem of Tang Tang Nade to everyone, it is inevitable to say some digressions, about the problem of the author.

At the beginning, this book had three authors participating in the plot discussion and listing detailed outlines. But when writing to the third volume, the other two authors started to lie flat... Currently, it is the snake-skin book friend who is writing down according to the discussed outline. Compared with three people, one person will definitely update slower, and then there may be some unintentional backstabbing... but the outline is set, and there should not be a big deviation.

Regarding the character Tang Tang Nade, the outline is set as a tool character who can act as a villain in a standalone subplot, but can also serve as an ally in the main plot or other subplots from time to time. Everyone can imagine that if a wealthy man with a clean background is wholeheartedly pursuing Hermione, he is very likely to succeed, and it is unlikely that Harry would obstruct him. So, in order for him to fulfill this role of a "subplot villain," a scumbag persona was established based on the point that protagonists in fan fiction love to have harems.

Perhaps, due to the author's change in writing style, the portrayal of Tang Tang Nade in the early stages tended to emphasize his role as a main plot ally, while in this volume, his identity as a subplot villain was emphasized a bit too much, to the extent that this fragmentation and reversal caused a fierce reaction from some readers. The specific ending between Tang Tang Nade and Hermione involves the main plot, so there will be no spoilers for now. But one thing is certain: Hermione is definitely not stupid, and she will not be easily led around by the nose.

Finally, the question of what Ge Xuan has been doing this year will soon be revealed in the sixth volume.
