Looking at Sarkozy's behavior after staying at the Elysee Palace, as well as the conflicts between China and France in some areas, it is not difficult to see that it is only a matter of time before China and France become hostile.

First, immediately after Sarkozy came to power, he made a drastic revision of the traditional French diplomatic line as a whole: alienating the Arab countries and rapidly approaching Israel; Abandoning the independent diplomacy of the de Gaulle era, significantly rapprochement with the United States, and even reversing de Gaulle's historic decision to withdraw from NATO and return to NATO. As for the hostile relationship with China, the high-profile reception of the monk in his capacity as EU presidency is only part of his comprehensive diplomatic strategic adjustment.

What particularly disturbs and alarms China is that Sarkozy has publicly abandoned Gaullism and returned to NATO. Because the basis for the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and France was Gaullism, and the relationship between the two sides can only continue to develop in depth, the root cause is also Gaullism. If Gaullism ceases to exist, the relationship between the two sides can be said to be non-existent.

Under these circumstances, no matter how much Sarkozy makes overtures to China, there is no guarantee of stability in the relationship between the two sides. As a result, China simply gave up the possibility of improving bilateral relations with Sarkozy and went to the end.

Secondly, France has always had a great power complex, dreaming of one day returning to the glory of the Napoleonic era, and Sarkozy is also known as the "little Napoleon" in his country, which fully expresses the great power complex of the French.

This can be seen from Franco-American relations: France has always wanted to get rid of the influence of the United States, withdraw from NATO, launch the European Community, vigorously oppose the war in Iraq, and so on. In order to show his status as a great power, he did not hesitate to make enemies with China, so what is so strange about this?

Third, there are also contradictions between China and France in Africa. China's rapid rise and growing influence in Africa are seen by France as a detriment to its own interests.

China's astonishing success as a backward developing country has not only helped to solve the problem of poverty worldwide, but also provided new impetus for the development of the global economy. This would have been welcomed by the international community. However, China's development model is different from that of the West, which poses a challenge to the West's discourse.

In addition, as the former colonial suzerains of Africa, they have always believed that Africa, even if it became independent, would remain their sphere of influence and backyard. However, out of the needs of traditional and current economic development, China's relations with Africa have developed rapidly and become very close in recent years. Naturally, this has caused great concern for these former colonial overlords, who fear that their interests and influence will be squeezed by China.

Fourth, there are differences in values between the Chinese and French peoples, and ordinary people are easily misled by the media, such as the saboteurs who snatched the torch of Chinese disabled athlete Jin Jing during the relay of the Beijing Olympic torch in Paris, and these saboteurs are French. The reason why they do this is because the influence of the hand media is too deep. However, the French media's reports on China have always been untrue, and there are many prejudices and slanders. In the final analysis, it is the difference in values between the two countries. However, the West has always only looked at problems from its own point of view, unable to realize that the actual situation is different from country to country.

Finally, these exchanges are also related to Sarkozy's own personality, "changeable, volatile and fickle" is the impression that Sarkozy left on the majority of the Chinese people, as some people say, Sarkozy is a political clown. In China's values, "capriciousness" is described as a sign of villainy, not what a country's leader should have.

As a result of these conflicts, Sino-French relations have reached a freezing point.

However, China and France are, after all, two big countries with a long history, with a deep traditional friendship and many common interests in the economic, scientific and technological fields. Although some contradictions have arisen between the two sides, both sides have realized that confrontation and conflict are not beneficial. Only by strengthening communication and dialogue, increasing knowledge and understanding, eliminating some misunderstandings between each other, rebuilding mutual trust through actions, and continuing to promote cooperation in all fields, can we create a cooperative partnership from which both China and France can benefit.

The rapprochement of Sino-French relations is beneficial to both sides, especially in the context of the global financial crisis. After all, "there are no eternal enemies and no eternal friends, only eternal interests" between nations

Therefore, Zeng Cheng's remark that the French government needs China's order too much was immediately understood by Vice Minister Rong to mean that the French are now in a weak position, and he immediately has a set of his own operational roadmap: first let the French realize their mistakes!

Vice Minister Rong nodded, and then thought of the reason why the Second Elder let him come to Paris with the intention of purchasing two billion US dollars of planes this time, which was nothing more than scratching the itch of the French at once, so that they had to make some concessions.

After all, the influence of the French business community, especially the aircraft industry, on the government is too great to ignore.

The trade delegation will only stay in France for just over a week before returning the same way, while the rest of the negotiating team will remain here to continue their work until mutually acceptable terms have been reached. Therefore, Zeng Cheng and others separated from the people of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and solved their own affairs.

Although Vice Minister Rong has some worries about the Sino-French negotiations, the attitude of the French side in the several cooperation talks so far has been relatively pragmatic and does not have many practical ideas, which has made his work easier.

The two sides have reached an agreement on agricultural cooperation and some nuclear power projects in the mainland, and now the main issue is focused on the purchase of aircraft, and although Airbus hopes to get this order worth a total of 2 billion US dollars, there are not a few people who are holding back, and the Chinese side has been biting the price issue, so it has not reached a consensus for a long time.

The French are a little anxious about this, but there is no better way.

Zeng Cheng has had a very easy time these days, and Fan Xueqing is free with the group. So there's some time to explore the French landscape. Especially in Paris, where the scenery is good, such as on the Seine, such as in the Louvre, such as under the Arc de Triomphe...... It's still very interesting, but there is no one around to accompany me, and I am a little lonely.

He is such a young Chinese, carrying hundreds of thousands of professional cameras, but he has no artistic beauty to shoot those dead objects, no artistic temperament, which makes those artists from all over the world who wander the streets of Paris feel very worthless, it is simply a waste of so expensive cameras and so many films.

After three days of wandering, Blanche and Sister Evelyn finally get in touch with him.

Zeng Cheng asked, "Have you already found out the clues?" ”

Zeng Cheng felt a little incredible. In his opinion, it should not be so easy to find the black material of the French first lady, not to mention that some specific information about her is needed, how can three days be enough?

"We've found it." Evelyn replied very simply.

"Okay, then come here, I'm getting art now." Zeng Cheng said to the two sisters on the phone.

It didn't take long for the Blanches to find Zeng Cheng, who was wearing a casual jacket and a denim hat hand-woven from the leaves of a certain plant, and was wandering around the Louvre with a camera, no wonder he said he was being trained in art.

"There are a lot of places here that don't seem to allow the use of flash." Evelyn reminded Zeng Chengdao.

In order to protect some works of art, especially paintings, murals, or old enough oil paintings and Chinese paintings and other art treasures, museums often require visitors not to use flash to take pictures, and when entering the venue, these things are generally checked, I really don't know how Zeng Cheng brought in the camera with flash.

"There's nothing in France that can't be done with money." Zeng Cheng's answer seemed rather vulgar.

Hearing Zeng Cheng's words, the two sisters were speechless. Aren't they living examples, the hereditary countesses have become Zeng Cheng's subordinates because of the problem of money.

Blanche sorted out a large paper bag, handed it to Zeng Cheng's hand, and said, "This is the information we found." ”

"Well, I guess we should find a proper place to look at these things." Zeng Cheng said to the two sisters.

Both sisters agreed, because the Louvre was really not a place to read the information seriously, there were too many people here, and they were all full of curiosity.

So they got on a yacht and slowly cruised down the Seine.

After Zeng Cheng read the information, he had a plan in his heart, and said to the two sisters: "This thing is very useful, and your task has been completed very well." ”

Seeing that Zeng Cheng didn't mention the bonus, Evelyn reminded her with some unhappiness: "Didn't you say that there was a bonus?" ”

"There will be a bonus, but not mine." Zeng Cheng said to Evelyn.

"What do you mean?" Both Blanche and Evelyn didn't understand.

"This information will be of great interest to the French opposition parties." Zeng Cheng said to them, "So, they will be willing to pay for this information." ”

"I want an Aston Martin car." Evelyn said to Zeng Cheng.

Aston Martin's racing?! Zeng Cheng said in his heart, I don't have this thing myself!

Aston Martin sports cars are mostly front-mounted V8 or inline 6-cylinder engines, which are powerful and aerodynamic, accelerating from a standstill to 100 km/h in just six seconds.

In recent years, Aston Martin has not been doing well, and has been bought by Ford and private owner David Richards, but their cars are very famous on the international circuit, winning many international car championships. Moreover, these cars are all handmade, exquisite workmanship, reliable quality, and the annual output is only 800 vehicles. Even the cheapest Aston Martin sports car costs no less than a hundred thousand dollars in the international market.

"I'm driving an ordinary Volkswagen Phaeton...... Mr. Zeng said. (To be continued.) )
