Chapter 41 Two landlocked countries

Zhou Sen's next stop was Kazakhstan, Zhou Sen left Mongolia with the interview team, and Zhao Hong went to the airport to see him off.

"Lao Zhao, I'm going to Kazakhstan, take care of yourself, and when I have the opportunity, I'll come to Mongolia to see you again." ”

"Okay, Xiao Zhou, if you need anything, you can call me. ”

Zhou Sen waved goodbye to Zhao Hong, boarded the plane with the interview team, the plane took off, Zhou Sen sat in front of the window of the plane and looked at the blue sky, he was very emotional, he took the interview team from Mongolia to Russia by plane, and then from Russia to Kazakhstan by train.

He took out the map, looked down carefully, and the camera brother Yin Xiaoqiang came over.

"Mr. Zhou, Kazakhstan is so close to Mongolia and is a neighbor of China, what are the differences between these two countries, can you tell us about it?"

"Kazakhstan is a landlocked country located in Central Asia and the largest landlocked country in the world, located in central Asia, bordered by Russia to the north, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Kyrgyzstan to the south, the Caspian Sea to the west, and China to the east. ”

"Kazakhstan and Mongolia, the world's first and second largest landlocked countries, respectively, have great geopolitical similarities. However, Kazakhstan is still much better than Mongolia, which has five land neighbors and several giant lakes such as the Caspian Sea, through which it can directly reach two other countries, while Mongolia has only two neighbors and does not have any decent waters. ”

"Mongolia has only two closest neighbors, China and Russia, in fact, it is very close to Kazakhstan, and there is only one Kuitun Mountain between the two countries, and the straight-line distance is only more than 30 kilometers, but it is also because of the Kuitun Mountain, Kazakhstan and Mongolia cannot directly intersect. ”

"China's 'Belt and Road' to the world, these neighbors are very important, the world's development is uneven, there are rich countries, there are poor countries, there are developed countries, there are developing countries, the world situation is changing rapidly, we must use the vision of development to look at the changes in the world, China's rise, so that the world is concerned, China has a great power responsibility, China's eastern lion has awakened, no longer China was invaded by Western powers before. ”

"History is like a mirror, we Chinese must remember history, work hard to make the country strong, shoulder the mission and responsibility of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, be far-sighted, understand the world, develop together with the countries along the 'Belt and Road', and convey friendship to the world, which is not only to realize the 'Chinese dream', but also to benefit the world and the people of the world." ”

"Our ancestors, generation after generation of Chinese, with the sweat of hard work, the persistent spirit of hard work, from the East to the world, gradually expand China's influence on the world, the Silk Road, is the wisdom of the ancient Chinese, they used the spirit of exploration, with camel caravans and ships to explore the unknown world, this courage is admirable. ”

"At that time, it was necessary to travel long distances, the means of transportation were not as developed as they are now, relying on camel teams, relying on walking, crossing the arid Gobi and desert, sometimes there was danger to life, Zheng He went to the Western Ocean seven times, drifted across the sea, to unknown countries, and did not know what risks would be along the way, if the weather at sea was bad, there were strong winds and waves, and there was a danger of ship destruction and death at any time, but he withstood the test and returned to China smoothly, which made later generations very admired. ”

"It is difficult for a person to leave a name in history, Zheng He dedicated his life's energy to the cause of navigation, and in the struggle against the stormy waves, he showed excellent organizational and command skills and heroic qualities that are not afraid of hardships and dangers. ”

Zheng He's voyage to the West has increased our understanding and understanding of Western countries, and also made Western countries full of yearning for China, a mysterious country in the East, which has accelerated further ties between countries in the world and broadened people's horizons, and friendly exchanges and trade cooperation have promoted more countries and China's diplomacy, which is conducive to economic development. ”

"Let China, a big country, establish a good image of peace-loving and friendship to the world, and have been recognized by the whole world, as the descendants of Yan and Huang and the descendants of the dragon, we will always remember Zheng He's contributions to the West, and Zheng He has also become a legendary figure, which has been recorded in history and admired by future generations. ”

"As Chinese in the new era, compared with the ancients, our current science and technology are more advanced, we Chinese have a strong learning ability, a high desire for knowledge, we have a spirit of exploration that is not afraid of hardships and dangers, many Chinese go abroad, go to all parts of the world to develop, business, trade, transnational marriage, Chinese young men marry foreign girls, Chinese girls marry foreigners are also many, there are many Chinese people who have settled and lived abroad for a long time. ”

"Chinese people are hardworking, hard-working, and are recognized by the world as the world's most industrious nation, many outstanding Chinese have become professors, economists and scholars in the world's institutions of higher learning, Chinese scientists have won Nobel Prizes, Chinese athletes have won gold medals in the Olympic Games and won glory for the country, Chinese directors and actors have won awards abroad, Chinese models have become world famous models, Chinese tourists have footprints all over the world, China is showing its charm to the world in a Chinese way, and China has brought peace and friendship to the world." ”

Speaking of these, Zhou Sen was proud.

"I am deeply proud that I am Chinese, I feel that we were born in this great era, as sons and daughters of China, we should do our best to make some contributions to our motherland, although personal strength is limited, but the strength of many people is great, our delegation has many members, Captain Xia Yuxiang and Qu Lihua they went to Russia for investigation, Fang Yun went to Hungary for interviews, my task is to interview China's friendly neighbors and border cities. ”

"Understanding the history and geography of these neighboring countries, traveling to famous scenic spots, using our lenses to record the scenery along the road, so that our Chinese people can enhance their understanding of these countries, this is the mission and task of this expedition, I think we have a sense of responsibility to do this, we can not live up to President Zhang's expectations for us, if there are any difficulties, call President Zhang, he will help us find a way, provide support and assistance." ”

The eldest brother of the camera, Yin Xiaoqiang, nodded, "With Dean Zhang here, we are very relieved!"

Zhou Sen said: "Let's go to Russia first, before getting on the plane, I have already called Commander Xia, they are still in St. Petersburg, we will go to St. Petersburg to meet them, Commander Xia said okay, invite us to dinner, get together with them, and then we will go from Russia to Kazakhstan." ”

"Okay, Captain Xia is really happy, he promised to invite me to eat Russian food, and we can also visit the other members of the delegation. ”
