Chapter 1697: Going to North Korea
When his nephew Jiannan was in college, he had a good relationship with a classmate from Ji Province, who lived by the Yalu River, and told his nephew about some things that happened near his home in middle school, and later these things reached Zhang Nan's ears.
The man said that around the time he graduated from junior high school and during his years in high school, he could occasionally hear gunshots from the west in the middle of the night, especially in the winter.
In those years, after the Yalu River froze, the locals never went up to the river to hang around, especially at night, because when the river opened in spring, they could always see some floating corpses floating down from the upstream!
Those Koreans who wanted to cross the border to China when the river was frozen but could not succeed were killed by the border guards on the opposite side of the river -- in such an atmosphere, whoever went up to the river at night was a fool, and if the person with a gun on the other side was regarded as a defector, there would be no place to cry out for injustice.
risked his life to run to China, the loser died on the river, it was okay, but it was estimated that it was even worse if he was captured alive by the border guards on the opposite side, so what about the success?
In the first few years, the North Koreans who went to China basically had relatives who relied on their relatives, and then found a black job to do it, which was better than starving to death.
It's a little longer, and there are many people who go to South Korea after passing through a third country.
What if I don't have relatives to take refuge in?
Men are counting on kind-hearted people to get them some work, and the big girls will marry, and there are really a lot of North Korean daughters-in-law in nearby villages in those years, and everyone is not surprised.
North Korean women with a big pie face and single eyelids?
Wrong!
At least the nephew's classmate saw that the North Korean daughters-in-law were actually okay, and at that time, some local people joked: "Those who came to marry are good-looking, and I know that no one wants them if they are too ugly..."
It's a bit vicious.
The North Korean daughter-in-law is hard-working and hard-working, and she can't show up to work to make money, but the affairs of the family will never need the man's family to worry about anymore, and the man's family will be served comfortably.
It's not a big problem to have no identity for the time being, as long as no one reports it, on the one hand, for stuttering, on the other hand, most of them are difficult households who can't afford to marry a local daughter-in-law, and they are making do.
Besides, there are also villagers nearby, as long as there is no grudge, no one will do the reported lack of morality!
But!
Is there a lack of virtue?
Yes!
The forest is big and there are all kinds of birds, this child was born, and it was reported by the ghost of lack of morality, of course the child is a Chinese person, once the mother is repatriated...
......
"What, you want to go to North Korea?!"
When Nicole got home, she was a little stunned when she heard the news.
"William and Albert both wanted me to go there as a private person, and I was curious about it, because it was an opportunity, otherwise it would be difficult to go there in the future...
At the end of next month, the UN Security Council will impose sanctions on that side, and the bullet production line will be 100% one of the sanctions clauses, and it will be difficult to find a suitable, non-political reason...
By the way, you're worried that I'm in danger over there?
Don't worry, it's safer for me to go there than it is to walk around the manor.
Our family is only a few kilometers away from the safety line, and I will go to North Korea, where the 3,000 miles of rivers and mountains are my safe distance..."
In March last year, North Korea announced its withdrawal from the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) for the first time, and according to Albert Gore, the United Nations Security Council will propose an investigation into North Korea's nuclear program and impose sanctions on it by the end of next month at the latest.
The situation now is that before and after the sanctions are introduced, someone needs to go to North Korea to ease the atmosphere.
Zhang Nan does not participate in politics, he is going to engage in some trade, and when the sanctions come out, there will be heavyweights who will go to North Korea to mediate, and nine times out of ten it will be former President Carter.
Zhang Nan is a soy sauce player.
It's good to play soy sauce, he doesn't want to be the president's envoy, or take some mission to the peninsula, if that's the case, he won't go.
This world is very big, and now in addition to Shah and Colombia, which have made big moves, all over the world, even Spain and South Africa, Zhang Nan can go at any time.
But this North Korea is really special, and it is not something that can be visited if you want to: on the one hand, it is extremely difficult for Americans to go there, and on the other hand, Zhang Nan is quite suitable to go there once at this juncture.
All parties will be glad that he, a Chinese-American, has come to North Korea as a private person, and even if he does not have a hint of political overtones, others still have special significance.
As for North Korea, as long as it is not stupid, it will 100% welcome Zhang Nan's visit.
What others think, Zhang Nan doesn't care, he has reached this level of being extraordinary, just like Adjani's status in the French film industry, he can not care about what others think.
In her childhood education, Nicole never had a good word about North Korea, but she also knew that her man's perception of that mysterious country was different from her own, and those people north of the 38th parallel would not treat him as an American.
"Really want to go?"
Zhang Nan nodded, "It's a very interesting country, I've almost forgotten what the days of wearing a statue medal are like, I really want to feel it, other places don't have this taste."
Someone from the Botswana embassy in Huaxia will soon make a trade offer to the North Korean side..."
What is the Embassy of Botswana in China?
Matter!
Botswana has diplomatic relations with North Korea, but does not have an embassy in North Korea, but is administered by the embassy in China.
Within three days, news came back from the peninsula: at any time, and warmly welcome Mr. Zhang's visit!
Let's go.
But how to go about it is another question, on May 1, in the small conference room of the main building of the manor, a bunch of core personnel of interest groups also held a meeting for this.
Zhang Nan, as the big boss, first said his thoughts.
"Don't be too high-profile, the plane can't fly directly yet, the other party has already helped us get in touch, just 767, fly to the capital first, and then transfer to Pyongyang.
Among the people who went with them, the old American was the Paul Garmack brothers, and the others were Andre's side, as well as the guys brought by his brother-in-law..."
Most of them are Chinese and Russians, and the chef does not bring Danny, but Andy, who is of Chinese descent, so as to avoid a lot of trouble.
Without the 747, Pyongyang Airport is an aircraft that can take off and land at this level, but the double-engine 767 is much more low-key.
Xiang Weirong sat on one side, he did not object to his brother-in-law's going to North Korea, but he did not support it, so he felt that he was too idle.
There isn't much to pursue, but it's more reliable than going to space like Kwan Xingquan.
Hearing him say this, he said, "With your own car, or theirs?"
"Let them arrange, when we get there, we are absolutely safe, otherwise it will be useless to drive a tank.
Just bring anti-listening equipment, and everyone can hear what I don't want to say. ”
After discussing for more than two hours, I took everything into consideration, and brought some gifts for the people over there.
Many people are not to blame, knowing that the Jin family does not play anything hard and simple.
