Zhang Fengli, member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and vice president of the State Council, attended the groundbreaking ceremony, and Myanmar's Minister of National Energy also attended the ceremony.

Zhao Guodong did not need to attend this kind of ceremony, the bigwigs gathered, in addition to the vice premier, a deputy secretary general of the State Council, the Minister of Commerce, the ministers of energy of the two countries, Cai Zhengyang, Tao Heqian, Song Guoliang, Wu Yuanji, Wang Lie These all attended. It is in line with the right people to participate. As a head of the organization, there seems to be no reason to get involved.

However, Myanmar came to a vice minister of energy, Qi Shi is also the Central Committee of the Myanmar Gong Association, he came out to attend the groundbreaking ceremony, there are a series of activities, such as visiting Yunnan Power Group, Yunnan Metallurgical Group, Queensland Machine Tool Factory, Bronan Provincial Party School, Monan University, Yunnan University of Science and Technology, Yunnan Provincial People's Hospital, Queensland Ecology and a community work in Queensland, and a deputy minister of the International Liaison Department of the Central Committee will also accompany the whole process.

Zhang Baoguo held a meeting in Beijing, and the province could only arrange Zhao Guodong to accompany him.

Zhao Guodong never thought that this captor could also catch himself, and after attending the ceremony, he had to take on this trip with foreign affairs tasks, and visited and inspected along with Vice Minister Jiang of the International Liaison Department of the CPC Central Committee and the Burmese guests.

"Minister Jiang, this guest looks very unusual." After the inspection of the bed factory in Queensland, the day's inspection is over, the Burmese guests do not seem to be tired at all, and they listen very carefully to the introduction of the development of several enterprises, and even go down to the workshop to check and understand the situation, and ask about the annual output value of the enterprise, the main use and sales of the product, the quality of the enterprise, whether it is listed and many other questions, which makes Zhao Guodong and the accompanying Vice Minister Jiang a little surprised.

"Well, Brigadier General Wu Di is a member of the Central Executive Committee of the Gong Association, and he also has a certain influence within the Gong Association, and he is young, not a few years older than Minister Zhao. Belongs to a new star in the political arena in the Gong Association, although he came out of the army, but he is familiar with the work of the government very quickly, and he is also good for our country! Goodwill. The central authorities attached great importance to the visit of his entourage, and after his inspection in Queensland, he also went to Nanyue, Jiangsu, and other places to inspect the visit. Minister Jiang pursed his lips and introduced.

Zhao Guodong also noticed the fierce and heroic spirit between the eyebrows of Brigadier General Wu Qi, and it was estimated that the brigadier general minister was about forty years old, and he walked with a military style.

At the end of the inspection, the other party and the interpreter came over to express their gratitude for accompanying the two of them.

Vice Minister Jiang and Zhao Guodong both said that this was their duty, and warmly asked Brigadier Wu Di if he had any activities arranged at night, if not, he could arrange for the province to see the night view of Queensland after dinner, and the other party also accepted the invitation quite happily.

"Minister Zhao, I can feel it, this General Wu Di has a good impression of you, he told

Sen,' said Xu had it

Yimu's unique military temperament, he admired your bearing, asked me if you were from a military background, and I told him that you were not from a military background, but you had worked as a policeman. Vice Minister Jiang Hua stood outside the hall and said with a faint smile.

"Huh? Impossible, right? Zhao Guodong was taken aback, "Although I talked with him very speculatively today, it was all about work, and the conversation was conducted through a translator, and he seemed to be very interested in developing the economy, especially in terms of machine manufacturing and infrastructure construction, and did not talk about anything else,"

"Myanmar is a country that believes in Buddhism, and Buddhism pays attention to fate, maybe General Wu Di thinks he has some fate with you." Jiang Hua smiled, "It's not a bad thing, General Wu Di talked to me about you during the dinner just now, and I was very surprised to hear that you were only thirty-five years old, he said that he has always felt that our party and the country are very particular about seniority, and it is rare for a young person like you to be able to hold his current position, I told him that your resume is quite rich, you have served in many places, and you won the two-year economic development and growth championship in our country during your tenure as secretary of the Ningling Municipal Party Committee, which surprised him even more, and he was more interested in you." ”

"Minister Jiang, this is not very good, he is a foreign guest, I am just a companion you recruited, and it is your task to receive him." Zhao Guodong smiled bitterly and shook his head, he couldn't understand what Jiang Hua meant.

"Minister Zhao, General U Di is not only the deputy minister of energy of the Burmese government, he is also a member of the Central Executive Committee of the Gong Association, for us, he is not only a guest of our country, but also a guest and friend of our party, whether it is public or private, strengthening communication and contact with him is beneficial to the development of relations between our two sides, you must pay attention to this." There was a hint of solemnity in the smile on Jiang Hua's face.

"Minister Jiang, I hear what you mean, it seems that tonight's night tour in Queensland wants me to be the commentator?

Zhao Guodong couldn't help laughing.

"Not really, but General Wu Qi may have to ask some questions, and Minister Zhao may pay attention when answering, and at the same time, we should also take this opportunity to explain some of our views and intentions to General Wu Di." Jiang Hua said his true meaning at this time.

Since the beginning of the 21 st century, India has seen the continuous development of Sino-Burmese relations and, out of strategic considerations, has continued to throw hydrangeas at Myanmar, and India-Burma relations have also continued to warm up.

In April 2002, India, Myanmar and Thailand signed an agreement to build a cross-border highway from Morey, India, to the Thai city of Mae Sai via the central city of Bagan in Myanmar and the southeastern border city of Myawaddy, Thailand, and in January and July 2003, the Minister for Foreign Affairs of Myanmar visited India twice, and in November the Vice President of India visited Myanmar, agreeing to strengthen cooperation in the economic, trade and defense fields, and India also pledged to provide $57 million in credit to help upgrade the railway from Yangon to Mandalay, in return, Myanmar supported India's permanent membership in the United Nations, At the same time, there is information that India is preparing to establish a naval unmanned reconnaissance aircraft base in the Andaman Islands of Myanmar to monitor the activities of the Chinese Navy in this sea area.

While the relationship between Myanmar and Myanmar has maintained a good momentum of development, it has also been disturbed by factors both inside and outside Myanmar, such as the changes in northern Myanmar, the status of the Chinese in Myanmar, and the involvement of India.

Are you saying that there are some sensitive questions that returning guests may ask? Zhao Guodong frowned slightly, "This is a troublesome job, the guest does not only represent the Ministry of Energy of Myanmar, but also represents the Myanmar Gong Association" As two independent and equal political parties, if something is inappropriate, it may cause adverse effects. Net

"Well, it's hard to judge yet, but this guest is quick-thinking and broad-minded, quick to accept new things, and it can be seen that he is quite interested in the economic development achievements of our country after the reform and opening up, so he may ask some questions, and because of his special status, maybe he will also ask some questions about the relationship between our two countries." Jiang Hua is also quite cautious.

"So how do I answer? Whether it's non-commentable, vague, or left-right

He? Zhao Guodong also felt a little difficult.

"That's not it, I believe that you can fully grasp the scale of general questions, Minister Zhao, if you ask questions related to the affairs of the two countries, this needs to be considered, and it is not appropriate to say too sensitive content to avoid irritating the other party." Jiang Hua smiled, "Although we are not diplomats, we also represent the attitude of a political party to introduce the situation to foreign friendly parties: Of course, there is no need to be too nervous, I believe that Rong Ren will also know the measure, who made him have such a good impression hsw.net of you?"
