Section 387 Diplomacy
Tomorrow is 515, the anniversary of the starting point, and the day with the most benefits. In addition to the gift bag and school bag, this time's "515 Red Envelope Flip" must be seen, how can there be a reason not to grab the red envelope, set the alarm clock high~
As a result, the group left the airport one after another and got into the car -- Director Qi Nan specially got into Xu Yan's car, and she told Xu Yan that she had asked the Foreign Affairs Office of Jincheng to help the Japanese guests book a room at the Jincheng Hotel and also book dinner there.
According to the tradition of the Chinese people, the first meal after the guests arrive at the ground, it is called the reception banquet, Xu Yan, as the owner of the head snake in Jincheng, should attend, otherwise, the Japanese may blame the reception for the poor number of etiquette.
Qi Nan smiled and said, "Director Xu, the Japanese are very anxious to see you, it is estimated that they have something very anxious to ask you." To be honest, I really don't care very much about whether or not your meeting can be negotiated and whether an agreement can be reached -- whether or not you can negotiate or not, your intelligence department will decide for itself, and we will not interfere.
As for me, as long as I can go through the negotiation process smoothly and smoothly, without any mistakes in the middle, and without letting the Japanese find fault with anything in etiquette, then I will be very grateful to you! If you can attend this reception, help to cheer up, and support my work, then I will thank you even more!"
It is really fateful to get along with people, because seeing that this Director Qi Nan is pleasing to the eye, Xu Yan happily agreed to her request - isn't it just a meal? Lao Tzu is not drunk with a thousand cups, can he still let the Japanese eat me?
Jincheng Hotel is a designated hotel for official reception and foreign affairs reception in Jincheng City, the hotel is located in the center of Jincheng City, with a beautiful environment. The service is considerate, and the taste of the dishes will naturally not be bad. But eat here. Xu Yan didn't feel much joy.
At the dinner table, the two military attachΓ©s and counselors from the Japanese embassy were fine. They were very enthusiastic and talkative, talked about what they had seen and felt after coming to China, and also told a few jokes that mocked the lack of knowledge of Koreans to liven up the atmosphere -- the so-called Sino-Japanese friendship depends on South Korea, and the Chinese and Japanese get together, and there seems to be no common topic except for laughing at Koreans.
What made Xu Yan feel unhappy was Ichiro Hashimoto, the leader of the envoy group, who kept his face open, lowered his head and just ate, and the expression on his face was as cold as an ice cave in Antarctica.
At the dinner table. Qi Nan and the two Japanese diplomats tried their best, telling jokes and toasting in turn, repeatedly enlivening the atmosphere, but because of Hashimoto Ichiro's coldness, the atmosphere was like a pile of soaked firewood, which could not be burned no matter how it was drawn.
During the banquet, Qi Nan whispered to Xu Yan that he didn't have to care too much about Ichiro Hashimoto's performance - he was asking Xu Yan now, and it shouldn't be possible to deliberately show Xu Yan's face. It must be his nature. But in the bar time after eating, he should be very open, uninhibited, and can do any messy things. At that time. is the time for his true nature to be revealed.
Xu Yan also believed Qi Nan's statement, but he didn't understand Ichiro Hashimoto because of this-what is your own temperament and habits, that's your own business. Right now. You have asked me to promise someone, you put on this dead face. Are you trying to embarrass me or what? Why do I have to accommodate you, not you?
In the final analysis. Or is it because you Japanese are used to being uncles in China, and you don't realize that your current status has been reversed.
Because this meal was not enjoyable, Xu Yan also made a hasty decision, he put down his chopsticks and nodded to everyone: "Everyone, please use it slowly, I'm full." I'm sorry, I still have something to do, so I'll leave!"
As soon as this remark came out, the audience was shocked. Director Qi Nan looked at Xu Yan in shock: "Director Xu, you ......"
Judging from Xu Yan's previous performance, she has already seen that this Director Xu is a person who does not play according to the convention, but she didn't expect that Xu Yan would do it so obviously - he ate the reception seat in half an hour, and then directly put down the dishes and chopsticks and said goodbye, this kind of behavior is extremely rare in officialdom or in diplomatic circles, if it is not for the great resentment between the two sides, it is not much different from slapping the face in the face.
Xu Yan said goodbye, and several Japanese present also put down their dishes and chopsticks, showing stunned expressions.
Hashimoto Ichiro said a few words with a calm face, and his assistant An Qing Oriko immediately translated: "Xu San, Mr. Hashimoto implores, you can stay for a few more moments, we have a very important meeting and hope to communicate with you." If you are not too presumptuous, we hope to have a tea ceremony with you in the tea room of the hotel - Director Qi, may I ask, can this be arranged?"
Qi Nan also put down her chopsticks, she straightened up, smiled dignifiedly, and said: "Let me state first, this meeting is mainly in charge of Director Xu, and our Ministry of Foreign Affairs is accompanied, how to decide, or Director Xu decides - it's just that a few distinguished guests have just arrived in Jincheng, and they are tired from the journey, if the talks are held immediately, I wonder if you can withstand it?"
Minister Hashimoto said again, and An Qing Oriko translated it again: "Director Qi, please rest assured." Mr. Hashimoto said that the country attaches great importance to this meeting and is looking forward to the results of this meeting. Some little tiredness that we can completely overcome. β
"I am very impressed that Your Excellency Hashimoto and your gentlemen are so conscientious and responsible--Director Xu, what do you mean?"
Xu Yan groaned slightly--he didn't expect that the Japanese envoy was so urgent, and as soon as he got off the plane, he didn't even need a little rest, so he immediately asked to participate in the meeting. From the stiff-faced Hashimoto Ichiro, he vaguely saw the shadows of the group of Japanese soldiers who fiercely charged with bayonets and "killing chickens" and charging with machine guns.
It's a very annoying thing that the Japanese are so stubbornly pestered like a fly buzzing around them. If we can fix things tonight, it will be fine.
But out of prudence, Xu Yan still did not immediately agree to the Japanese, he said sorry, went out and made a phone call to Wen Xiuzhi, he simply said the matter: "The Japanese seem to be very urgent, they hope to talk with me tonight - Brother Wen, this meeting, will the ministry send a more experienced leader to come over to us to sit down?"
Wen Xiuzhi's attitude was very simple: "This matter." Yanzi, you have full control over it, and the ministry won't arrange for another person to go over. Something. You and Huang Xi can discuss it, that little girl is still a little smart. β
The Ministry of Intelligence delegated power to Xu Yan so much. Xu Yan was a little panicked: "Isn't this okay? I have no experience, if I say something wrong that shouldn't be said, or leak any secrets, it will be troublesome!"
"Hehe," Wen Xiuzhi smiled: "Yanzi, in fact, we have already thought about it, for this, the ministry has already evaluated you, and the ministry thinks." Although you are a middle-level cadre in a position, the Special Anti-Terrorism Division is a newly established department, and there is no business contact and communication with other departments, and you have always operated independently, and you have no opportunity to contact top-secret content -- blind, Yanzi, to be serious, you have never even entered the door of the Ministry of Intelligence, what kind of state secrets can you know...... So. There is no possibility that you will leak secrets to the Japanese side. β
"But the question is, I know a lot of case information about F-virus fanaticism......
"Don't worry, this information will be made public soon. Soon it will no longer be a secret. β
"Ah, what's going on?"
"Now, considering the current situation of frequent episodes of F-virus mania. Some experts have already made suggestions to the central government, suggesting that the F-virus mania virus should be disclosed to the public as a rare disease that occurs naturally. There's no need to hide it anymore.
Experts believe that it turns out. The vast majority of the large number of deaths and injuries caused by F-virus mania are caused by poor response. Now that the global trend of F-virus mania has been confirmed, this is already an objective reality, and there is no need to adopt such an attitude of avoiding medical treatment, but should treat this disease as a natural disaster such as a car accident, volcanic eruption, earthquake, tsunami and typhoon, and actively disseminate knowledge of its characteristics, hazards and responses among the public, so as to reduce the casualties caused by the disease.
If the common people were to be clearly aware of this disease and how to identify and deal with it, it would not cause panic -- just like now, the number of traffic deaths in the country every year is close to 100,000, and when it comes to the number of casualties, isn't it even more serious than the F-virus mania? But in this way, are the people panicked? No? Why? Because everyone understands the causes of car accidents and knows how to prevent and prepare for them, the society will not panic and be in turmoil because of this, although the damage caused by car accidents is very great. For the F virus, such an effect can also be achieved through publicity and popular education for the public. β
Wen Xiuzhi spoke for a long time, and Xu Yan also listened very carefully, he asked, "Then, will the central government listen to their opinions?"
"At present, the central government has asked our task force to conduct a comprehensive review and evaluation of the information on the virus of F virus mania, and we should gradually open up and publish this information soon.
We have already communicated with the diplomatic department, and we can disclose this information to the Japanese in advance, in exchange for the Japanese concessions to our country in other aspects, in this case, we are tantamount to taking some secrets that are about to be disclosed in exchange for concessions from the Japanese, and we are not losing money in this business, hehe!
In short, Yanzi, with the Japanese, you can break it as you like! They just want to inquire about the giant beast case of Shudu University, and it is not impossible to negotiate -- anyway, now that the news on the Internet is flying all over the sky, it is not bad for you, the person concerned. This matter has been authorized to you by the organization, and there will be nothing to do, hehe!"
Speaking of this, Wen Xiuzhi laughed dryly, looking very proud-Xu Yan guessed, no, this cunning plan was what he came up with, no wonder he was so proud.
ended the call, and Xu Yan already had a bottom in his heart. He hurried back to the dining room and whispered to the eagerly waiting crowd, "Okay! Then, let's meet tonight!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ichiro Hashimoto said very politely, saying that he wanted to invite Xu Yan to taste the "tea ceremony". Everyone asked the hotel for a tea room, four people on the Japanese side, and three people on the Chinese side, including Xu Yan, Huang Xi and Qi Nan. The small tea room, which was sat down by these seven people, suddenly seemed a little crowded.
The two sides sat down around the tea table, the Japanese sat on one side, and Xu Yan and the two girls sat on the other side of the tea party, with clear barriers on both sides.
Several Japanese people are sitting upright, with serious expressions, their waists straight, their eyes level, and the momentum is really a little oppressive, like a gangster who is really ready to negotiate.
Seeing a few Japanese sitting in front of their lapses with such a strong aura, Xu Yan suddenly admired them a little - some people may think that the Japanese are just pretending to be face-saving, but they need to know that the truth is inside and the form is outside, if there is no strong and firm inner support, even if you want to pretend to be majestic, it is not so easy to pretend.
Take the current sitting posture of the Japanese as an example, it can be called "standing like a loose and sitting like a clock", and to maintain such a posture, it is impossible to do it without good habits and perseverance of restraint -- there is an idiom in ancient times called "Mu Monkey and Crown", if you want to let those non-mainstream teenagers in the urban-rural areas of China sit in such a sitting position, I am afraid that they will not last for three minutes, and they will have to fall apart.
The waitress came in and served tea to everyone, looking at the solemn and tense atmosphere in the room, her hands in pouring tea trembled slightly.
Qi Nan said to the waiter very seriously: "Waiter, we are talking about something very important, wait a minute, without our notice, you don't come in again to add water - what you want, we will look for you." β
"Okay, guest, please take care of yourself - if you need anything, please ring the bell to let us know. β
The waiter hurried out in fright, and the meeting began.
Before the talks began, the Japanese embassy attache Ichi Sasato, bowed and apologized first, saying that according to domestic requirements, the talks required a record, so he would place a small video camera in the tea room to record the entire process of today's talks.
He sat cross-legged and bowed deeply: "I'm really sorry if I have caused trouble and inconvenience to Xu Sang and you! I'm sorry!"
Xu Yan frowned slightly. He glanced at Qi Nan, but saw that the latter also took out a small camera from the handbag beside him: "Mr. Sato is too polite." Although it is not a formal diplomatic occasion today, it is after all a formal official meeting, and it is appropriate to leave a record. Since Mr. Sato has already put a camera, I think you don't mind if I put in a video recorder and a recording microphone, right?"
A few Japanese nodded solemnly, indicating that they didn't mind, as it should be.
Once the recorders on both sides were placed, the meeting began. Naturally, according to the usual practice, the beginning of the talks was first spoken by the highest-ranking people on both sides, Hashimoto Ichiro over there chirped, her assistant An Qing Oriko quickly translated simultaneously, Hashimoto Ichiro said a polite word, he said that he came to China and Jincheng, and was warmly received by the Chinese government and Xu Sang, he felt very honored, and he would like to express his gratitude to Xu Sang.
Xu Yan politely humbled a few words, and said some nonsense that friends from afar were happy, and the two sides got to the point.
The Japanese didn't go around in circles with Xu Yan, and quickly got to the point: "Xu Sang, in March this year, you and your friend Miss Zhu Youxiang entered our country for an exchange visit, do you still have an impression of this matter?"
