The Pacific Fleet of the Republic of China, which sailed around the world, returned to Qingdao, the anchor port of the Pacific Fleet. At the Qingdao Military Port Terminal, dignitaries and military figures from all levels of the Republic of China came to greet it. * With the salute that resounded throughout the world, Li Changgeng and his entourage stepped off the First Emperor. Then Li Changgeng walked to the podium and said: "When I set foot on this land, my heart was full of joy. Tranquility. Because I love this land deeply!" With a one-sentence speech, Li Changgeng walked off the podium, shook hands with the officials who came to greet him, and then Li Changgeng began to inspect all the way back to Chang'an from Qingdao. He stopped and stopped for half a month, visiting factories, schools, and infrastructure construction in various places, squatting in the fields and chatting with old farmers. He delivered more than ten speeches along the way. There are mostly words of praise for officials from various places, and in rare cases, they will say a few words of slight criticism. Yang Du, who has always been by his side, is also a little confused as to why Li Changgeng has such an attitude. This is completely different from Li Changgeng's attitude during previous inspections. Things that are confusing are always difficult to understand, especially as an official, it is extremely bad to be unable to understand. After Yang Du returned to Chang'an, he began to seek advice from his staff and officials in his circle. These people are all extremely smart people, and they quickly summed up a few ideas. One idea is that in order to calm the officialdom, the incident with the 11th Division last time caused enough tension below. This is the time to calm down the officials. Emotions. Of course, this statement does not make sense, because Li Changgeng used thunderous tactics to suppress officials several times and then severely punished them. It is not uncommon for officials to take their feelings into consideration, but this time it goes against the norm. The second theory is that Li Changgeng is motivated and is trying to win over officials. But this idea was immediately rejected by Li Du. Who is Li Changgeng? He doesn't need to use this method if he wants to make progress. The third theory is that Li Changgeng must have noticed that someone might be harmful to him, so his return inspection was actually a drunkard's intention to secretly investigate the behavior of some people. This statement attracted Yang Du's attention. Because this idea makes sense and is in line with Li Changgeng's methods. The fourth theory is that Li Changgeng must have made some big move. He is planning a suitable time, but this time is not mature enough yet, so he is secretly testing his ability to withstand this big move. As for the unconventional style of inspection, it is most likely to cover up a big move. Yang Du listened to the various suggestions from the officials below and walked around the living room. Based on his understanding of Li Changgeng, the third and fourth theories were more reliable. But both theories have one thing in common, that is, Li Changgeng's abnormal style is to cover up what he is going to do. In other words, his abnormal behavior is to confuse the minds of the officials below. But in this way, things are back to the original point. What exactly is Li Changgeng going to do? This can only be said that Li Changgeng's daily behavior is too big. His unconventional approach always achieves unexpected results in the end. And when everyone looks back and thinks about the common sense things he did , but it is so reasonable. Therefore, there is a popular saying in the official circles of the Republic of China. That is, no matter how big an official you are, you must have a big psychological structure. At this time, suddenly a department-level official who had just entered Yang Du's house said something, interrupting Yang Du's thoughts: Secretary General. Could the president's favor have something to do with his global trip? At this time, everyone turned their attention from the department-level official to Yang Du. This statement is innovative, and Yang Du has always been with Li Changgeng this year. If Li Changgeng's intentions are related to this global visit, then the only person with the most say is the Secretary-General in front of him. Yang Du is known as one of the most intelligent people in the Republic of China. Sit back on the chair and half-close your eyes, recalling a series of events about traveling around the world with Li Changgeng. Everyone is also waiting to hear what Yang Du has to say, one minute, two minutes, five minutes, ten minutes, a quarter of an hour, half an hour, three quarters of an hour. Everyone was listening to their own breathing, anxiously waiting for Yang Du's statement. At this time, he was a little weak and could no longer care about his image. He leaned nervously on the back of the chair and forced himself not to speak out. Yang Du also had a layer of sweat on his head, and the expression on his face was a bit ferocious. It was obvious that he was using his intelligence to the extreme. Slowly, Yang Du's expression relaxed a little, and the officials below also made their breathing sounds louder. An hour later, as the grandfather clock in the living room chimed the time, Yang Du suddenly opened his eyes, glanced at the people below, slowly picked up the tureen on the coffee table next to him, and took a big gulp of the already cold drink. He drank the tea and said: "You and Du are all loyal ministers who are willing to die for the president. The president does not intend to confuse you. If he does this, it can only be said that the time has not come for this matter, and Du can only guess. Probably, you don¡¯t need to worry too much. God¡¯s heart is unpredictable. Only by doing the things at hand well can you show your loyalty to the president.??'s best practices. The president's move should be based on changes in the overall world situation, but the specific means and extent are unpredictable. If you are interested, you may wish to pay more attention to the new changes in the world. "At this time, Huang Shaofu, an official who was relatively close to Yang Du, asked: "Xizi, tell us your feelings about traveling around the country with the president, and let us have an idea of ????judgment. " Yang Du glanced at Huang Shaofu and thought to himself, he is worthy of being the confidant he has cultivated. He knows that at this time, he can help him win over people's hearts. Then he said with a smile: "Du and all of you have traveled abroad to various countries in the past, but this time The experience of going abroad with the president this time is different from the previous ones, and it is also different from your experience. First of all, I feel that China's status in the world has increased. Especially the president is highly respected every time he goes to a country, which has aroused great popularity among governments and people in the world. " A flattering official below continued: "The president's words and deeds overseas have a profound meaning. He really exerts national prestige overseas. " Yang Du glanced at the flattering official, feeling unhappy in his heart. It was really a mistake to let such a flatterer get involved. Next time there is such a meeting, it is better not to call him. Some officials who responded quickly saw Yang A hint of displeasure flashed through Du's eyes, and he quietly moved away from the flattering official. Then the flatterer made a good friend, Huang Shaofu, and said to him, "Yes, President, through this global visit. , has become famous all over the world, greatly improved the status of the country, and also eliminated the people of the great powers. Some prejudices against the people of our country. We are envious that Xizi can accompany the President and witness his peerless elegance, which is famous all over the world! Alas, look at my nagging, Mr. Xizi, please speak up! " Huang Shaofu checked Yang Du's expression while talking. When he saw Yang Du nodded to him in a meaningful way, he felt a lot more at ease. He turned around and glared at the toady. That look said "I'm for you." This grandson just got a good deal from Yang Du. This is how it is in officialdom. If you do something less, you will be wise. If you do something less, you will be mediocre. It¡¯s obvious that he is stupid. Today, this usually smooth-talking flatterer made the stupidest mistake. This is the so-called time, destiny, and luck! After hearing Huang Shaofu¡¯s words of support for that flatterer, everyone rejected that flatterer. A lot was eliminated. Yang Du also saw that this was the first time for this flatterer to participate in such a meeting. He also thought that at this time, he was competing with the Liang faction for power, and internal unity was still very important, so he said with a serious expression: "Uncle Brother Chen is right, but you have only seen the president's impressive performance overseas, but you don't know that he has visited many countries this time. Whenever the president visits a country, he often only sleeps four or five hours a day to discuss the topics of talks and the text of his speeches. Consider again and again. In every social situation he personally participated in, he had to anticipate and rehearse the finger gestures! Even when the ship was sailing, the president never missed a moment. Study and understand the culture, etiquette, language, religion, celebrities, etc. of the country you are going to visit. It is the president's diligent and meticulous diplomatic attitude that gives him such a prestigious reputation, the president once said to Du. There is no such thing as random success in this world! " After Yang Du finished speaking, he took off his glasses and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. This inadvertent move made the official who thought he was a master of flattery skills fell into admiration. This is the ultimate in flattery skills. ! Come from the heart, stop expressing emotions. No wonder Yang Du can become a red-hot minister next to the president! Many officials below were also excited by Yang Du's praise of Li Changgen. This is a rare wise king in ancient times. ! Unknowingly, Yang Du resolved the embarrassing situation just caused by the toady. He then said: "This trip around the world with the President has really broadened Du's horizons. In the past, we only visited one or two countries, but this time Together with the president, he visited more than 20 countries in total, including both great powers and weak European states. In the words of the president, this is a horizontal comparison of the national power of countries around the world. It is not difficult to lay down the foreign policy of the Republic of China in the next twenty years on this basis. It was just when Gangdu thought of these words that the President said that he guessed a bit of the President's intentions! " At this time, a relatively high-status official among the Yang officials said: "Mr. Xizi, please tell us in detail what are the differences between these countries! " "Brother Linyuan asked, so he listened carefully. Borrowing the president's division, today's world can be divided into three worlds. The first world is Britain, France, and the United States. These three countries are different in comparison. Britain is the number one country in the world. Relying on the blood transfusion of its powerful overseas colonies, it only took a few years to recover its national strength from the trauma of World War I and become even stronger. But Britain is like an old man in his sixties. Its national strength has reached its extreme level and it is no longer able to continue its development. Especially during the First World War, a large number of men died, which caused the country to lose its internal strength, leaving only oneHuge body. The situation in France and the United Kingdom is similar. Although it now controls the discourse on the European continent, this country, like the United Kingdom, appears to be powerful, but has a weak successor. The most powerful and capable country in the first world is the United States. The United States is like a man in his thirties, with full-grown bones and muscles, full energy and blood, and a good appetite. During World War I, the United States¡¯ national power was not damaged, but it became the biggest winner. Not only did its population not decrease due to the war, but it actually increased significantly. This is a country built on business. As long as it is beneficial to the country, they are willing to do it. In fact, you are no strangers to the United States. Our country has had great economic and trade exchanges with the United States in recent years. I think most of you here have been to the United States. I won¡¯t say much more. You might as well pay more attention to the United States after you go back. The president attaches much more importance to the United States than the United Kingdom and France. Let me tell you about the countries in the second world. China is also among them. In terms of national power ranking, I am happy to tell you that after the president¡¯s comprehensive evaluation, China¡¯s comprehensive national power ranks first. But the president said Although our overall national strength is very large. But the current foundation is not strong enough. If China can reach the penetration rate of German education, our country will have the strength to be among the first world. Unfortunately, it will take us a long time to move this stumbling block. Let¡¯s talk about other countries in the second world, Germany, Soviet Russia, Italy, and Japan. ??Apart from the United States, the country with which our country has had the closest ties in recent years is Germany. The president commented that Germany is expected to surpass France in national strength in ten years. Germany is the birthplace of the Second Industrial Revolution. Although this country became a defeated country in World War I. It was not until 1925 that my country and the United States restored it to a natural country with the joint efforts of our country and the United States. But in fact, this country has been secretly accumulating strength. Although Germany suffered a huge blow from its defeat, you may wish to think about it. Education has not been interrupted, this country's scientific research has not been interrupted, and this country's industrial technology has not been interrupted. In the words of the president, these things represent a country¡¯s soft power. As long as the Germans do not lose these capabilities, Germany will one day become a powerful country in the first world. But Germany, like our country, needs time to rise. Talking about Soviet Russia, the relationship between Soviet Russia and us has been pretty good over the years, but this country is too terrible. To use two words to evaluate this country, it would be "horrible!" The industrial development of this country is actually entirely supported by us, Germany and the United States. However, due to the strategic guidance of our country, all industries in this country are not designed to serve people and the economy, but solely for the purpose of waging war. Can you imagine that this country is developing its military industry. Dare to take food away from the people, and the people in the granary of Eastern Europe like Ukraine, its member country, will have nothing but potatoes to eat. And not enough to eat! According to the conclusions drawn by our intelligence personnel, it is likely that millions of people died of starvation in Soviet Russia. Soviet Russia's practice of developing its military industry regardless of its people has frightened countries such as Britain and France. In fact, our country should also be vigilant! Let¡¯s talk about Japan. Japan has always been a strong enemy of our country. This country imitates the United Kingdom in everything. Although its national strength has been suppressed by the development of our country, its overall strength is still considerable. The president's evaluation of the above three countries is that Soviet Russia is a bear, greedy, barbaric, and desperate to achieve its goals, but not mindless. Germany is a tiger, smart, brave, and capable of both wisdom and courage to achieve its goals, but it doesn't know how to find friends. Japan is a wolf, cunning and ferocious, and will do anything to achieve its goals, but it is easy to overdo anything. These three beasts are growing rapidly. Once their claws are strong, they will challenge the first world countries, Britain and France. Let¡¯s talk about Italy, this country is almost everything, but it doesn¡¯t seem to be too bad! In the words of the president, he is a pig teammate! " After the audience laughed for a while, an official who usually didn't talk much asked Yang Du. "How does the president evaluate our country? " "The president said that our country should be an elephant. Elephants will not actively attack other animals. But as long as the elephant grows up, no matter whether it is a bear, a tiger or a jackal, they will not dare to do anything to the elephant, because the elephant is strong enough to kill them! But I think the president wants our country to become a dragon in the sky, transcending everything! There are even more third-rate countries. Countries such as Spain, Argentina, and Brazil are all distinguished by their economic capabilities or a certain item. We can only survive by following the first and second world countries! " The meeting between Yang Du and other officials was put on Li Changgeng's desk the next day. Li Changgeng took a brief look at the content of the day's meeting and smiled. Yang Du had been by his side for all these years, and he still It's very smooth. It has lived up to the painstaking efforts I have spent in the past half month. What is the so-called superior intention? It is used to let the officials below guess. The more the superior intention makes these officialsIf we can't figure it out, we will become more and more unpredictable. Only then will the officials below be afraid, only then will they be able to please, and only then will they dare not change their minds. Of course, what Li Changgeng did was not to test the loyalty of officials. During this global trip, he killed more than two birds with one stone. Of course, the main reason is that he wants to know whether China's development in recent years will change the history he knows well, and whether his golden finger will still work. Fortunately, although the rise of China has had a certain impact on the world, the general trend remains the same as in history. At least the U.S. stock market is as crazy as it has been in history. France's dominance on the European continent has accumulated countless resentments among the German people. Britain's world policy still pursues a European balancing strategy. Soviet Russia is also like history, Comrade Stalin completed his national work bloody (To be continued)
