Chapter 79 AU Assembly
A superb diamond also made Zhou You enjoy the passion of fire that night, such as the warmth of water, although the price is a little bigger, but Zhou You is still very happy. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info relive a lifetime, isn't the picture a happy and proud!
It's been ten years, and it's been ten years since I was reborn. With a happy family, a huge business kingdom, and a high social status. Now he can already say that even if he is reborn, his life is complete.
The spring breeze was so proud of the tour that the mood of the next day was very pleasant, even if the technicians found a few back doors in the stage of satellite detection, it did not affect the good mood of the tour.
As a Chinese, in a country where Chinese are the main body, even if they are used, they are willing. They are not afraid to leave the back door, because Zhou You has neither anti-human thoughts nor anti-national thoughts, and it is also for this reason that he does not make satellites abroad, but at home.
Three days later, the detection of the satellite was completed, and the technical team under Zhou You added some internal programs to the software program of the satellite, which had priority in the entire command sequence.
In this way, even if his actions cannot be concealed from the country, at least, the command of these satellites is in his own hands, and this is enough.
The satellites are then mothballed and then transported to the launch site. After a few more tests, a launch will be scheduled in January next year.
These will be operated by a technical team that will follow the satellites, install their own software, and conduct a full range of tests until the satellites are launched.
Yan Fangqing came back from Rongcheng, and after a few days of hard work there, she also looked a little tired. Zhou You returned to Singapore with her, stayed in Singapore for a day, and the next day left for Ethiopia to attend the AU General Assembly.
In general, Zhou You rarely attends some international conferences, because most of these memories are retreats, and in Zhou You's view, it is a pure waste of time.
If it is a retreat within a country, it is necessary to understand it, because it is related to the country's foreign policy or economic reform policy. But this kind of retreat between the two countries is more about quarrels and compromises.
The AU is only a coordinating organization among the 54 member states of Africa, and like the United Nations, it does not have the same rights, that is, the same role as the secretariat, and it does not have the name of the United Nations.
They couldn't even afford to build a headquarters building, so they still supported them in China and helped them build a headquarters so that they could have a place to work and hold meetings.
However, this meeting was held for him by Africa's economic development policy specifically for the traveling economy, so it was necessary to come to the traveling tours.
The special plane arrived at Bole International Airport in Addis Ababa, which was originally a small airport near the AU headquarters in the city center, and was specially designed for the planes to land when the leaders of the world came to meet for meetings. Unfortunately, it was a small airport with a runway of only two kilometers, and the large plane that traveled around could land, but could not take off, and could only land in the commercial airport outside the city.
This is also the biggest inconvenience after changing to a large aircraft, the Airbus 380 landing distance is two kilometers, and the take-off distance is nearly three kilometers, so that many airports do not meet the needs of take-off and landing.
Gracia arrived in Addis Ababa a day ahead of schedule and is now the managing director of Nanyang Holdings, where she is responsible for all aspects of the company's development in South America and Africa.
In 2007, she ranked third in the global power list of women, behind Pelosi and German Chancellor Angela Merkel, who made George W. Bush dizzy. She is also ranked higher than the Ukrainian Iron Lady Tymoshenko, US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Mrs. Young Head and a large number of other celebrities.
It is worth mentioning that although Yan Fangqing rarely appears in the limelight in business, she is also ranked ninth on the list. In Asia and the mainland, Yan Fangqing's current fame is no less than that of Gracia.
Of course, they are not as good as Zhou You in this regard, because Zhou You has already won the top spot in the global power rankings for two consecutive years, and in 2006 he was only one place behind Putin, and was second.
Since his first jump to the top spot in 2005, he has suppressed Putin and George W. Bush, two strongmen, and there is no one else in the limelight.
The top spot in 2007 is the least suspenseful, because this year, from the beginning of the year, Zhou You's layout for the U.S. subprime mortgage crisis, and then reaped a lot of money, and then the U.S. government succumbed and opened the door to Zhou You, which made Zhou You's top position simply unshakable.
In particular, the development of South America changed the pattern of the entire South American region, and he expanded his influence to Africa, and even fought two wars in Africa, which made him more popular than the leader of any country.
Of course, Gracia was not the only one who came to the airport to greet him, but also some of the company's subordinates, as well as Ethiopia's most famous political figure, Meles Zenawi.
This comical-looking, seemingly wooden revolutionary overthrew the government of Poison Cabbage and ushered in an era of democracy in Ethiopia. During the Transitional Government, he served as President and later as Prime Minister of the Government.
Don't think that the prime minister is smaller than the presidency, in Ethiopia, the president is a fictitious office, belongs to the honorary leader, and the power is in the hands of the prime minister.
Meles held a brief welcome ceremony at the airport and fired a 21-gun salute in accordance with the protocol for greeting VIPs. However, because Zhou You is not the leader of the country, there is no part of the military parade and the playing of the national anthem.
Gracia has always been very good on such occasions, and with her beautiful appearance and proper dress, she has now become the most suitable partner for traveling in formal situations.
After the welcoming ceremony, Meles and Zhou You got directly into the bulletproof minibus of Zhou You, and under the protection of the convoy, they went directly to the Prime Minister's Office in the center of the city.
Addis Ababa is a highland city, and although it is relatively small, it also has four distinct seasons. At the end of October, the temperature here is around 12 or 3 degrees, which is very pleasant. However, the city construction here is poor.
In the city center, the Presidential Palace, the Chancellery and the Parliament Building form an isosceles triangle. The Prime Minister's Office and the Parliament are located at two feet, and the Presidential Palace is a little further away, but not more than 500 meters away, and between them is a semi-enclosed city park.
In 2007, the GDP was less than $40 billion, and the GDP of a country was less than a quarter of the wealth of travelers, and the per capita annual income was only $300.
It is also to support the local economy, and the climate here is very good, so the African Union originally chose to have its headquarters here. Then the mainland helped them build an AU headquarters, also in the city center, but slightly to the southwest.
On the way here, Zhou Youyou had checked all the details of Meles. His experience was almost identical to that of Colonel Ka, who had seized power through a coup d'état.
But after becoming the master of the country, Colonel Card became arrogant, regarded the country as his private property, and did whatever he wanted. But Meles is at the opposite end of the spectrum with him, no bodyguards, no enjoyment, he wants almost nothing but power, and completely returns power to the people.
Ethiopia is not rich, but they have the highest public spending on the poor in the world, which is 100 percent highest, which has led to the admiration of the entire Ethiopian people.
However, he obeys the Western government and closely follows the Western country in policy, so Zhou You's perception of him is average.
It is also for this reason that although Zhou You's talks with him were very warm, he did not make a commitment to invest. It was also the representative of Gràcia who expressed his willingness to provide one million dollars in annual aid to the students of Ethiopian University, which could help 100 university students study abroad.
One million is not much, but it is not a one-time thing, but every year, so it can guarantee that at least 100 college students can be helped every year, which is very good.
Of course, this is also a means of restraint, and if Zhou You is upset at any time, this assistance will naturally stop.
Stayed overnight at the most luxurious Sheraton Hotel in the area and enjoyed a wonderful night with Gracia. The next day, Zhou You went to the AU headquarters to attend an economic conference held by the AU especially for him.
Although the African Union has decided to build its headquarters building with the help of the mainland, it is still arguing over the location of the building. The biggest of these is Colonel Ka, who, in order to expand his influence, has been asking the AU to move its headquarters to his hometown of Sirte.
Of course, this is just wishful thinking on his part, and although the AU has held many meetings in Sirte with the stick of his money, it is only because of his money that no one wants to put the AU headquarters in a place where there is nothing but sea water and desert.
Libya relies on oil exports, and has a lot of money in hand to attract followers. Colonel Ka was also blindly arrogant because of this false momentum. He also looked down on Saddam, but later ironclad facts proved that he was far worse than Saddam.
At this time, the AU headquarters looked very shabby, without the momentum of an international organization, and if it weren't for the large number of international peacekeepers, it would be like an ordinary school.
In the large conference center that can accommodate 1,000 people, Zhou You observed the meeting held by the African Union on the development model of Zhou You, and they spoke highly of the success of Zhou You in South America, believing that although Zhou You has also transferred money, it has brought real development opportunities to South American countries.
Western countries have always been predatory development, they use the resources of backward countries, turn them into products, and exploit the funds of local people with huge profits, but they have never helped the local people to develop their own industries.
The development model of Zhouyou has not only increased countless job opportunities for the local area, but also really improved the living standards of the local people, developed the local industrial capacity and processing level, which also increased the local consumer market in disguise and made the people's lives better and better.
Angola, Nigeria, Zambia, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and other countries are now following the South American countries to actively negotiate various development models that suit their own national conditions, and have achieved good results. So the overall evaluation of the AU is still good.
However, there is no shortage of opposition, and there are quite a few of them. Of course, these countries are some countries with scarce resources, and they can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour.
Not only did they accuse the development of Zhouyou of plundering the area, but they also accused the illegal armed forces of Zhouyou, which directly engaged in new wars of aggression in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Angola.
But these words, Zhou You, selectively treated as if he had not heard.
In fact, no decision of the AU can affect a country's established policies. Whether they agree or not, countries like Angola and the Democratic Republic of the Congo will not pay attention to them.
If it weren't for Zhou You to give them face this time, he wouldn't have wanted to come to such a meeting at all.
The meeting was scheduled to last for two days, and until the afternoon of the next day, after the African Union Chairman-in-Office, Tanzanian President Kikwete, made a summary of the meeting, the former UN Secretary-General and current General Counsel for Africa of Nanyang Holdings Kofi Annan took the stage to make a speech. In his speech, he appealed to cherish the rare investment opportunities now, such as this kind of investment to drive the overall industrial upgrading of a region, now only Zhou You alone in the world can do it, giving up cooperation with Zhou You, it is tantamount to giving up the development of the country, will become a sinner in history.
These words are a little exaggerated, in fact, from the beginning of the development of South America, the tour is the mainland of the future generations of the Belt and Road policy. It's just that according to the actual situation, he has made some adjustments and changes. If he hadn't been born again, he wouldn't have such a brilliant mind.
He is more easily accepted by other countries as an individual than a country. Because there are no political factors in this, all economic factors.
However, there is no disadvantage in this, that is, he cannot have a factory that covers all industrial fields, and can only attract a large number of enterprises to cooperate in the form of an alliance, which also leads to the fact that in order to balance, he has to absorb some European enterprises to join.
However, on the whole, the effect is still very good. While earning a large sum of money, he also received countless accolades and won a high social status. And thanks to this development, his security company has also grown rapidly, and the total number of people has now exceeded 100,000, which is more than the number of armies of many countries.
This kind of development is not something that any entrepreneur can do, whether in terms of soft power or hard power, he can be said to be unmatched.
Finally, Zhou You also took the podium and gave a speech on Africa's resources and development in front of hundreds of participants and media reporters. In his speech, Zhou You made no secret of the fact that only resources are the basis of all economic development, but his development is not predatory, but shared. The choice of whether to continue to be poor, or to use resources to bring in capital and technology for common development has never been coercive.
Finally, he also mentioned the development opportunities of some resource-poor countries, and believed that the economic development of neighbors can drive the development of the region, because economic development is never independent, and countries with poor resources should not be jealous of their developed neighbors, because when their neighbors develop, they will also drive their own economic development.
No matter what they thought in their hearts, anyway, after Zhou You's speech, the audience resounded with warm applause.
