(Q - Cédric42: No, I have been listening to you for a while talking about Max Valentin, the story of the Owl, the way in which historical owls, we will say, see Max Valentin
a little bit like a guide, someone who had quite exceptional solutions. I have the impression that in fact Max Valentin was afraid that this great thing would be found a little too quickly.
that the owl is a little bit his story and that he wanted to make it last in order to do his business, later, doing everything to mislead or at least delay, at the beginning, the discovery of the owl C.
This is the impression that your speech gives me, in fact in the sense that you often say that Max Valentin was not someone extraordinary in the sense that he had not found things out of the ordinary, therefore
I have the impression that Max Valentin really played with the notion of speed in relation to the discovery of the owl. Is that what I'm telling you, or is that true?
doesn't seem credible to you?)
MB: That’s an interesting question. Thank you for stating that because it’s really something interesting. I think that Max Valentin was then... I know exactly the words I use... They are weighed, weighed... I understand their significance so don't think that I'm improvising.
I think that Max Valentin was very quickly confronted with his own limits, and quite quickly understood, that his idea, his concept, the way in which he had translated it, were not necessarily great.
And very quickly, because we're talking about a communicator, he understood how to counter that and how, where to graft, onto history, the notion of a brilliant find, an exceptional hunt, etc... I think that hunting at the golden owl, at first, was nothing exceptional. I think he was confronted with that pretty quickly. He quickly understood it. And he reacted. "Hello ? Max Valentine? If you can hear us…” No, I was joking. He reacted by grafting the character of Max Valentin onto all of this and giving the story a dimension that it did not have at the start.
