Chapter 963: Visit to China
South America, Europe, North America, and several continents in Africa have not been so peaceful in recent times. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Let's talk about Africa first, Algeria had a large-scale artillery attack a few years ago, although the matter was suppressed, but from the inside information, the person who was hunted down was not completely destroyed, so the surrounding countries are a little worried, afraid that the other side will come to retaliate again. And as long as the other party does not die, revenge is a sure thing.
The first bandit ran rampant in Europe for half a month, during which he caused a large amount of loss of personnel and property during the arrest and pursuit, and the most hateful thing was that the bandit was not found in the end.
The hearts of people on the North American side are fluctuating because of the South American side. The countries led by the United States have discovered an astonishing fact that there is a powerful organization that is trying to connect several countries in South America, and this incident has caused great harm to the interests of the North American forces.
Finally, let's talk about South America. Fang Yuanshan's blitzkrieg brought the half-century-long civil war in Colombia to an end in just half a month, but the hatred between the government and the anti-government forces was accumulated over a long period of time.
Then there's Brazil, where James Babbitt was elected president thanks in large part to Fang Yuanshan's strong support and the imprisonment of Etil Rousseford, a strong contender for the next president.
These two reasons made James Babbitt the president, but don't forget that he had only a 20% approval rating, and a large part of the people and parliament did not support Babbitt, but only found a replacement after the sudden loss of Rossefort.
After the news of the death of the "big devil" of the Yuanshan Group came out a few years ago, James Babbitt's presidency was in jeopardy, and there were internal voices and calls for a re-election of the president. This forced Babbitt to make a big concession: acquiescing in the knife of the Yuanshan group by those interest groups.
Just when Babbitt was busy putting out the fire and even put on hold several state visits that had been scheduled a long time ago, Fang Yuanshan's call came.
They are all people who have come over with strong winds and waves, and their own combination is also based on interests, so Fang Yuanshan did not complain that Babbitt did not take good care of the Yuanshan Group; Babbitt naturally did not need to explain, Fang Yuanshan could take the initiative to call himself is the best proof.
After his phone call, Babbitt stopped trying to balance the interests of all parties, and went on a state visit according to the planned itinerary, the first of which was China in the East.
On March 4, 2011, Brazilian President James Babbitt and his wife "Becky Pram Babbitt", Brazilian Ambassador to China Mark Smollett, Director of the Plateau Palace Chief of Staff Benson Bunian, National Security Advisor to the President Brant Freeman and more than 20 other members of their entourage launched a three-day state visit to China, the first stop of which was Yenching, China!
During this visit to China, enhancing trust and dispelling doubts will be an important focus of James Babbitt's visit to China. Mark Smollett said that the purpose of enhancing trust and dispelling doubts is to promote the healthy development of China-Pakistan relations and deepen mutually beneficial cooperation between China and Pakistan in the region and the world. I believe that as long as China and Pakistan adhere to the bottom line of non-conflict and non-confrontation and build a solid foundation of mutual respect, they will be able to do a good job in win-win cooperation.
At the same time, it will be a focused collaboration journey. Mark Smollett said that Babbitt's visit to China will push the cooperation between the two countries to a new level.
The two sides will reach important consensus on many fields such as economy and trade, energy, people-to-people, climate change, environmental protection, finance, science and technology, agriculture, law enforcement, defense, aviation, and infrastructure construction, and sign a number of far-reaching cooperation agreements.
Mark Smalley pointed out that the two sides will also have an in-depth exchange of views on various current regional and international hot spots, and further strengthen coordination and cooperation. It is believed that this visit will further expand the common interests of the two countries and add new connotations to the relations between China and Pakistan.
Of course, the sudden visit of the Brazilian president to China after the original plan was changed, and a series of deep-seated issues are the arguments of the outside world, but no matter what the outside world speculates, President Babbitt has arrived.
As a link of cooperation between China and Pakistan, Fang Yuanshan naturally attaches great importance to it, and President Babbitt informed General Fang in the western suburbs as soon as he got off the plane, and then he naturally learned about Babbitt's visit.
As for the reason for Babbitt's sudden visit to China, Fang Yuanshan is naturally clear. Personal friendship aside, the annual profits and taxes generated by his Toyama Group to Brazil are astronomical, and the integration of mining energy in multiple regions has increased the local employment rate by several percentage points, which is a tangible figure.
In addition, there are many more, and the pace of Yuanshan Group's deep processing and high-quality route is very far-sighted. A country that thrives on energy trafficking can never be called a great power, and this is also James Babbitt's approach to statecraft. He wants to lead Brazil out of the embarrassment of being a raw material exporter and on a healthy and sustainable path.
These are all external reasons, and there is also a deep-seated reason that once Fang Yuanshan is not restrained, his presidency will also be in jeopardy. Therefore, seeing that he did not rush back to Brazil to clean up the mess at the first time, he took the opportunity of his visit to China to have a detailed understanding.
However, Fang Yuanshan did not have time to greet his visit, and he was discussing the issue of laser artillery with several responsible comrades of the National Defense Science and Technology Work Committee.
Before the price was negotiated, the things had already been shipped, and they were also commanded by the old man. This kind of thing can't be fought at all, so after the two sides sat down, he said directly: Na, you look at the points, if you want to give some "scrap iron money", you can give some scrap iron money, if you don't want to give it, it's okay, it's just for you.
Hearing him mention the word "money", the seven or eight old men sitting there all looked at each other with expressions. They had heard the news that they had been "sent" and that everything had been shipped, so how could it be sold now?
This room is full of human spirits, who can't hear the meaning of his words? To put it simply: After giving money, we will continue to cooperate; if we don't give money, it's okay, and in the future, the road will be facing the sky and going to one side! The laser cannon will be regarded as his repayment to the motherland~
After he said the word "money", there was a silence in the underground conference room for a while, and finally General Fang, who didn't know what his position was, said: "Mr. Fang, we still need to study the problem of this laser cannon. How about getting back to you in three days at the latest?"
Fang Yuanshan can understand this, if you "sell" something to others, you must always let people try it on, and if you can't take it over, you must "buy" it. And to be honest, the high-tech content of the laser cannon is too high, and three days is really not much.
Originally, General Fang was going to have a further in-depth discussion on the issue of future cooperation, but who knew that Fang Yuanshan did not take the bait, and their plan was disrupted for a while. After thinking about it, there is no need for this meeting to continue!
After staying at the base in the western suburbs for less than three hours, Fang Yuanshan left here at half past ten and rushed back to Yanjing City, where there were still many people waiting for him.
James Babbitt and his entourage got off the plane at 9 a.m., and at 9:45 a.m., they attended the welcoming ceremony held by Mr. Wang Jingping, President of the People's Republic of China, at the People's Hall!
10 o'clock: Hold a meeting with Mr. Wang Jingping, President of the People's Republic of China!
10:30 a.m.: Attend the China-Pakistan Economic and Energy Summit held at the Yutai State Hotel. The summit was co-hosted by the China-Brazil Commission, the National Development and Reform Commission and the National Energy Strategy Research and Cooperation Center. Mr. Zhang Keqiang, General Manager of the State Council of the People's Republic of China, and Mr. Babbitt, President of Brazil, made concluding remarks respectively.
11:30 a.m.: Attend the official banquet hosted by Mr. Wang Jingping, President of the People's Republic of China!
And just when Babbitt attended the luncheon, Fang Yuanshan had already rushed to Yanjing City...
The schedule of the Brazilian president's visit to China is relatively tight, and in order not to over-interpret it in Western countries, Babbitt is only making a daily visit. The events between the two sides were also official, and there were no private meetings.
It can't be said that there is none, at least the conversation between him and Fang Yuanshan and the outside media don't know.
South America, because of its proximity to the United States, has always been the backyard of the United States. Even "French Guiana", which was bitten off by France, had countless secret confrontations between the two sides, and finally compromised.
As the largest country on the South American continent, the United States will never allow Brazil to move closer to China, and as long as this sign appears, Brazil will be greeted by the big stick of the United States. And what they didn't know was that Fang Yuanshan was also making a short stay in Huaguo now, and once they knew, it was estimated that this big stick would soon fall.
"Fang, regarding the monopoly of the Yuanshan Group, there are now several political coalitions in Brazil that have asked me to explain, and several of them have already launched attacks. The next step is probably to go to Parliament, and I will probably become the first president of Brazil to be expelled since independence. ”
Babbitt seems to have had a bad time lately, and he talked about the situation he faced as soon as he met him.
Regarding the problem mentioned by Babbitt, Fang Yuanshan had already expected it. Brazil's political environment is complex, with many parties and many interest strata. When the political demands of many political parties are not satisfied, they will throw themselves into the arms of another "big fool" and act as the vanguard of the anxious attack on those in power.
Among them, the Workers' Party of the Far Hills Group and Babbitt represented the new forces, while Vale and the Democratic Movement Party represented the old forces. Among them, Rossefort, who lost power, is a representative figure.
When Babbitt, a "country thief" who did not deserve the name, was elected president of Brazil, the Brazilian people still had a lot of complaints, and if it were not for the support of Lula Sisle, even with the help of Fang Yuanshan, he would not have been able to ascend to the presidency.
Babbitt also brought him another piece of news, just after the news of Yuanshan's death spread a year ago, in order to bring down Babbitt, there was evidence that someone was ready to take action against Lula Sisle, the "outrageous" president.
Once the former president, who has unparalleled appeal among the Brazilian people, falls, it will not be far from the fall of Babbitt, the new president who took advantage of the situation.
"I don't know who Vale's shareholders are, and they don't have any details in the sub-database, you know?"
Hearing his question, Babbitt leaned back and said, "I'm sorry to tell you, I don't know either." But I can tell you that the Brazilian government will not have more than 30 percent of the shares in it, and the Japanese Mitsui & Co. will also have about 30 percent of the shares. As for who the other shareholders are, I can't find out with my authority. ”
Fang Yuanshan's brows furrowed, and he scolded fiercely in his heart: "What's the matter, this Vale seems to be very hidden, labor and management want to see what your fox tail is?"
To be honest, hearing Babbitt's words, his heart was very shocked. Although the president's power in Brazil is limited, how can he say that he is also a president, and now even he does not know the details of this Vale, can you imagine how deep they are hidden?
It's also a deformed monster, but the Toyama Group is in front of Vale, like a little hairy child facing a giant, which can be destroyed in minutes. But there is a premise in this, that is, Fang Yuanshan will not make a move. With his current strength, if he is ruthless against Vale, then the positions between the two sides will be lost.
Originally, there was an agreement with Jeffrey Byron, the current chairman of Vale, that everyone would not interfere with the river water, but now that they broke the agreement in the first place, there is nothing to say. Throw off your arms and get to work!~
Fang Yuanshan is a big tree, and Babbitt said unceremoniously, it is the vine attached to him, so he has nothing to shy away from, and talks about his layout in South America. When he confessed that he was responsible for the Colombian affair, Babbitt's mouth opened wide and he looked shocked.
Colombia, Brazil, and Peru next, after thinking about it in his heart, he was even more shocked beyond measure. If you think about it on a deeper level, wouldn't it ...
Without waiting for Babbitt to think about it more, he followed: "Mr. President, your state visit will take two more days, and tomorrow I will rush to Xiangjiang to deal with some personal affairs." In addition, I made a little investment in Yanjing, and I may need to delay for two days, and I will be in Brazil by next Monday at the latest. ”
Babbitt also silently thought about it, he is now in a relationship with the Yuanshan Group that is both prosperous and loss-making. There are a lot of places where he needs to rely on him, and if he falls, it will not affect him much. Therefore, the degree of the period must be grasped well, so as not to prevent the other party from looking for a spokesperson for interests again.
"Well, that's the case in Brazil right now. Mr. Wang Jingping, the head of the country, has prepared a dinner, do you need to go with you? ”
Hearing his invitation, Fang Yuanshan smiled and said, "There is no need now, I hope that one day I can attend the reception dinner held in Huaguo in a dignified manner~"
"Haha, I'm looking forward to that day~"
When Sharon Fielding said that sentence in Fang Yuanshan last night, she was quite surprised. Her identity is relatively special, and the people she usually contacts are also fixed, coupled with the unstable situation in Brazil, in order to prevent someone from maliciously slandering, she has even had a lot fewer opportunities to go shopping recently.
Yesterday, while her father was busy with the visit of the President of Brazil, she and her friends went to the bar for a walk, who knew that she met a Portuguese-speaking and more importantly, Sharon's family is from Rio, and she could hear that the other party's Portuguese had a Rio accent.
It was because of this incident that Sharon, who was going to go out to play today, simply accompanied her father and mother to attend the reception dinner held in Huaguo.
Now Sharon Fielding is waiting with a group of people in the spacious and bright lounge of the State Guesthouse, and in the room directly opposite, President Babbitt is meeting important guests. Both sides have been in for more than two hours and have not come out yet.
Sharon Fielding, who was born into a family of politicians and politicians, has been an envoy since her grandfather, so she knows all about these receptions. That's why Sharon is very strange.
It stands to reason that the guests that Mr. President will meet after he arrives in China have all been arranged a long time ago, but this situation is obviously not the same. In addition to the president's security personnel at the door, such an important guest did not bring an entourage, which was what made her feel strange.
Just as she was suspicious, the bright yellow wooden door of the meeting room was opened, and a man wearing a baseball cap and sunglasses walked out, and then walked quickly towards the door. As he passed Sharon Fielding, the man paused for a moment, then the corners of his mouth hooked, clearly smiling.
There are a lot of things that foreign envoys need to learn, social etiquette, conversation skills, and recognizing people are all basic common sense, Sharon has been familiar with these basic skills since she was a child, so she recognized Fang Yuanshan the moment she saw him. When Fang Yuanshan passed by her, Sharon unconsciously stretched out her hand to cover her mouth, her eyes were full of horror!~
After Fang Yuanshan left alone, Mrs. Fielding, who was standing next to Sharon, saw that something was wrong with her daughter and asked softly, "Baby, what's wrong?"
"Just now, just ... ”
Sharon, who wanted to say that he knew him, suddenly found that he didn't even know who the other party was, and then asked rhetorically: "Mom, Mom, do you know who this person Mr. President met with?"
Mrs. Fielding glanced left and right, then put her mouth to her ear and whispered: "Fang Yuanshan, chairman of the Brazilian Yuanshan Group... ”
