Kuo Jie's specialty is personal attacks. What their group of golden-headed criminals do is to rob the good reputations of social groups and individual citizens, and then publish them in their newspapers and magazines to sell them to ignorant people. //www.//ig, rainbow
And now, he must not let these bastards take advantage of him. Not only can he not let them take advantage of him, but he must also let them use it for himself.
At this time, in his writing, reporters he was familiar with appeared one after another, and then they wrote either exclamation points or question marks after their names. The exclamation marks represented that the reporter could act according to his requirements, and A question mark indicates that the person may have some questions.
At this time, Lin Baishui knew that he had to shoulder his responsibilities, but as the government press secretary, he needed a headache:
"What if there are still some people looking for bones in the chicken?"
Thank God, at least it is possible to inform the nation and patriotism to persuade them!
¡°Secretary-General, it¡¯s time!¡±
Finally, his secretary came to his side and reminded him softly.
here we go!
When Lin Baishui collected the press release and walked towards the press room, he felt an unprecedented sense of mission lingering in his heart. When he was about to enter the press room, when he saw Lu Zhengxiang was about to enter the press room, , facing a colleague, Lin Baishui suddenly smiled.
"Do you believe?"
The colleague was stunned, obviously not knowing what he was talking about.
"Starting today, we will create history!"
Before his colleagues could react, he opened the door first and walked in after Lu Zhengxiang entered the press conference room.
¡°Why are the officials from the presidential office here?¡±
When reporters from various countries in the press conference room saw Lu Zhengxiang, they felt doubts in their hearts. At this time, Lin Baishui, who had just walked to the podium, spoke.
"Everyone, please be quiet. Friends from the press are invited here today. The State Council and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs have made an important decision to announce to the outside world!"
Afterwards, Lu Zhengxiang stood up and took out a piece of paper. His speech was very brief, and he could even say only a few sentences. In fact, some things only require a few sentences.
"For more than seventy years, China has been bound by unequal treaties. This kind of restraint is contrary to the international principle of mutual respect for sovereignty and is not allowed by independent countries. Now that China has achieved independence, it should further abide by it. Due procedures, the renegotiation of the New Covenant should be carried out to fulfill the purpose of equality and mutual respect for sovereignty. The State Council and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs made a decision that our country¡¯s current diplomacy should focus on the re-renewal of the New Covenant and abolish it. There are three principles for remaking an old covenant and remaking a new one: A treaty that has expired will of course be abrogated and a new covenant will be made; for a treaty that has not yet expired, the national government should dissolve it with appropriate procedures and make a new one; when the old covenant expires, a new covenant will be made. If it is undecided, we will make temporary measures to deal with everything"
As soon as Jian Zhi's speech ended, Lu Zhengxiang's mission was completed. In fact, the next thing was Lin Baishui's matter. It was precisely because the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was not in the habit of facing the press that Lu Zhengxiang asked the State Affairs Bureau to The hospital participated in the press release.
When Lin Baishui stood on the stage, he encountered an extremely stupid question at the beginning:
"Secretary-General Lin, how do countries react when they learn that the State Council intends to abrogate the Old Testament?"
Listening to this extremely stupid question, Lin Baishui forcibly suppressed his temper,
"Compared with the reactions of other countries, as Chinese officials, we need to consider China's interests more!"
Lin Baishui's words only caused a burst of applause. As press secretary, Lin Baishui knew that it was this emotion that he needed to incite now. He used patriotism as a rallying cry to incite the patriotism of all Chinese people. At a time when patriotic passion is everywhere, At that time, public opinion can also be used by the State Council, and the State Council and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs can use public opinion as a bargaining chip on the negotiation table.
After answering several questions in succession, he heard another stupid question:
"Does the abolition of the engagement bring back memories of the great powers' declaration of war in the Year of Gengzi?"
At that moment, Lin Baishui decided to end the press conference. His goal had been achieved.
An hour after the press conference ended, Lin Baishui glanced out the window of his office. At this time, the State Council was now surrounded by reporters from all over the capital. Just wait, fuck them, Lin Baishui Thinking that they would only know what he told them to know, these reporters must be used by the State Council.
On the way to the State Council, Zhu Erdian looked a little excited. He did not expect that Yuan Shikai refused.When I saw him, it was just yesterday that Yuan Shikai suddenly caught a cold.
Yesterday, no one knew what a cold meant.
But today, when he went to the Presidential Palace, he was unable to meet Yuan Shikai because he had a cold, so he had no choice but to give up his previous plan - refusing to meet directly with the State Council. But now, he is on the way to the State Council.
"On the treaty issue, I don't think we have any room for negotiation with them. If they try to challenge the principles that the treaty must abide by - then let them taste the pain."
The minister¡¯s words made Odik, the assistant counselor, frown and say:
"Sir, is this too tough? Maybe we should be more flexible."
¡°Obviously he has his own considerations. In fact, he knows that China now is not the China it was three years ago, and now that the British army is completely trapped in Europe, it is impossible to send even a company or a warship to Asia.
"I will agree to one of his requests!"
Zhu Erdian smiled
"Today I will only talk to him about the selection of the General Taxation Department. As for the treaty, I don't think there is anything that can be changed. I will disclose this to him."
After the car arrived at the State Council, they saw a large number of reporters outside the State Council. When they got off the car, the reporters took pictures of them and asked them questions, but Zhu Erdian just repeatedly emphasized that "the treaty must be abided by." "Basic international principles", Zhu Erdian and Audik finally entered the State Council under the escort of armed guards.
Minutes later, the two British diplomats were brought into the Prime Minister's Office, and Li Zicheng met them in his office, and then shook hands with them and greeted them in proficient English.
From Zhu Erdian's indifference and the remarks he just made to reporters outside, Li Zicheng believed that this was a tough guy, but he had a smile on his face.
But the other party¡¯s calmness made his heart skip a beat. Zhu Erdian vaguely realized that perhaps, this time, the Chinese people really didn¡¯t believe in the authenticity of the new covenant. It seemed that the Chinese people were really ready to do this.
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, I believe that the remarks made by your country this morning are undoubtedly extremely inappropriate!"
Although Zhu Erdian had made up his mind not to talk about that matter on the way here, he suddenly changed his mind at this moment.
But Li Zicheng just smiled and said:
¡°As a sovereign and independent country, I don¡¯t think there is any discomfort in making remarks that are equivalent to a country¡¯s independent sovereignty!¡±
Zhu Erdianze immediately replied:
"That statement violates the basic international principle that treaties must be observed."
After being silent for a long time, Li Zicheng put away his smile, faced Zhu Erdian, and said sarcastically:
"What if the same treaty was imposed on Britain? How would you react?"
After asking the question, Li Zicheng said with emotion.
"Well, we respect the principle that "treaties must be observed", but that does not mean that we do not have the right to re-examine the old treaty and then conduct detailed discussions with the signatory countries,"
Li Zicheng said this. Although he did not reveal his anger and hatred towards those unequal treaties, he definitely had a deterrent effect.
¡°As an independent sovereign country, this is our right, and it is also the basic national power granted by the ¡°basic international principles¡± mentioned by the Minister.¡±
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Zicheng pointed his hand toward the office.
"If you think that the Republic of China is still the Qing Empire, then we don't have to negotiate on this issue. Since you think that we are an emerging country, then China and the United Kingdom should negotiate on the signing of a treaty by the old regime. It is also the prerequisite for maintaining the basic international principle that "treaties must be observed."
This Li Zicheng!
At this moment, Zhu Erdian realized that the prime minister in front of him had received a complete Western education like those extremely difficult diplomats in the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs. They were cunning, difficult, and understood international rules. And is good at using any international rules to serve his own interests. Zhu Erdian, who was unable to make any answer to Li Zicheng's statement, hesitated for a moment and then took the initiative to say:
"We believe that¡¡"
He looked at Li Zicheng and said:
¡°We believe that Anglian¡¯s General Taxation Department should retire early.¡±
After making a proactive concession and changing the subject, Zhu Erdian said:
?¡°However, we demand that the next General Taxation Department must be appointed in accordance with the terms of the 1898 treaty. There is no room for negotiation on this issue.¡±
Zhu Erdian took the initiative to show his goodwill, but Li Zicheng sneered in his heart, then nodded in agreement:
"Your Excellency, Minister, we have never denied the validity of the treaty."
Then his expression turned cold again.
"The decision to remove Anglian was based on his refusal as a foreign official hired by the Chinese government to refuse the administrative order of the Chinese government. The Chinese government must dismiss him, and there was no discussion on this decision. room!"
What¡¯s the point? What¡¯s the point of removing Anglian?
"Is it necessary?"
"The British government will not allow civil servants who refuse to implement government executive orders to resign with dignity!"
"But you have to consider the decency of a gentleman."
"Compared to the dignity of a gentleman, as the Prime Minister of China, what I need to consider is the authority of the country. Does it mean that your Excellency, the Minister, thinks that the dignity of a British person is more important than the authority of the state of China?"
Zhu Erdian, who was completely blocked by one sentence, felt a little contempt in his heart, and even looked at Li Zicheng angrily. He did not expect that the other party was so ignorant. If it were officials from the Qing Dynasty, they would even happily accept this. Once a suggestion is made, they will happily think that it is the most decent thing for the country.
But now, even though he is dissatisfied, Zhu Erdian cannot say that the dignity of the British is more important than China's national authority. Otherwise, that statement will be enough for London to withdraw him.
"certainly,"
??Laughed awkwardly, and when Zhu Erdian nodded in agreement, he sneered in his heart.
You can¡¯t even hope to make any progress here in the UK!
