12-100 glory days
Li Kun and Wei Ziqian have been forced to stay in Luanda, the capital of Angola, all flights to San Juan have been suspended, and the land transportation is not smooth, and it is said that it costs 10,000 US dollars to take you to San Juan, but there is no guarantee of safety on the road, but no one dares to take the risk.
There are 10 people in the condolence group of Zhicheng Group, although many people have the experience of going abroad, but they are all European and American countries with good public security, no one has the experience of traveling in the troubled areas of Africa, and they are all at a loss when they encounter this situation, some people propose to go to the Chinese embassy in Luanda to find a way, but they are told by the embassy that Western Sadamoa is in a period of war, please do not risk their lives.
The opinion of returning to China prevailed in the condolence group, but President Li and General Manager Wei insisted on going to Western Sadamoa, so everyone had to sacrifice their lives to accompany the gentleman and wait for the opportunity in the hotel in Luanda, and after waiting for a week, suddenly the embassy sent someone to the door, saying that they could go to San Juan, and that they had prepared a plane for them.
When the group was surprised and delighted, when they took the car provided by the embassy to the airport, the embassy staff told them that the civil war in Western Sadamoa had ended, the warlord leader had been killed, and now that the United Nations police had been stationed in San Juan, safety could basically be guaranteed.
A propeller regional airliner was waiting for the people of the sincere condolence group at Luanda Airport, the pilot was Chinese, the flight attendant was also Chinese, and there was a line of English letters "REDSTAR" on the fuselage.
Luan is not far from San Juan, an hour's flight to its destination, when the plane circled over the San Juan airport, an employee leaned on the porthole and exclaimed: "What a beautiful little plane!" β
Everyone looked around, and sure enough, there were many small private jets parked at the airport, as well as some large Boeing Airbuses, the main building of the airport was magnificent, the glass curtain wall glittered in the sun, and the wide asphalt road in the distance was like a black ribbon in the grassland, and it seemed that this small West African country was not as barren as imagined.
After getting off the plane, a domestic passenger car drove directly to the gangway to pick them up, and sent the condolence group directly to the San Juan Hotel, the hotel has prepared a room, two high-end suites, and the rest of the people are standard rooms, everyone praised Mr. Wei's meticulous work, but Wei Ziqian knew that he didn't do anything.
The next step is to work step by step, go to the port to comfort the stranded Zhicheng Group workers, Li Kun changed his clothes and came out, and it happened that the guest on the other side of the door also came out, it was an Asian woman in her forties, with an excellent temperament, she greeted Li Kun very politely: "Ku you are angry." "The voice is tactful and elegant.
It's a Japanese, Li Kun also nodded slightly, and his heart was full of doubts, why is this woman so familiar? But soon she forgot about this, and took her subordinates to the dock to comfort the workers, everything went according to order, the leader spoke, the representative spoke, the masses applauded, and the condolences were distributed.
As soon as she entered the hotel lobby, the manager greeted her and told Li Kun in simple Chinese and gestures that someone was waiting for her, and then everyone saw a handsome black man in an all-white dress with a sword coming over to salute them, and then handed over a gilded invitation.
Li Kun was a little surprised, and took it with both hands to take a look, and the words "Inviting Li Kun and Ms. Wei Ziqian" to the palace to attend the state banquet were written on it.
"But I don't have a dress!" This is Li Kun's first reaction, and it is also the first reaction of all women, the state banquet! It was the most formal occasion, and this time I came to Africa with tropical attire, so how could I wear shorts and travel shoes to a state banquet.
The guy in the dress smiled slightly, snapped his fingers, and the waiter held two large white cartons and opened the lid for the guests to enjoy.
"Here's our evening dress for you."
Li Kun and Wei Ziqian were dumbfounded, one set of black, one set of purple, the silk texture glowed with a soft brilliance, and the most outrageous thing was that there was actually a small box of matching jewelry, an authentic Cartier diamond necklace! At least hundreds of thousands of dollars can be bought, is this for us?
"Please change your clothes, Your Majesty will greet you in the palace." The guy in the dress said.
Li Kun and Wei Ziqian woke up like a dream, and quickly took the box and went upstairs, so that the king could wait for him to behave rudely! When Li Kun entered the house, he happened to meet the guest from the opposite door again, and the two saluted each other again, this time Li Kun finally remembered that she was not the famous Japanese singer Miyuki Nakajima.
I didn't have time to think about it, I went back to my room and changed into an evening dress, my hair didn't have time to take care of it, so I could only simply put it down, put on Cartier jewelry and look left and right in front of the mirror, Li Kun couldn't help but feel that he was not old.
After changing their clothes and coming downstairs, the brilliance of the two evening beauties illuminated the entire hall, the Rolls-Royce car of the palace had already driven to the door, the guards helped open the door, and the hotel waiters all bowed and saluted, making Li Kun and Wei Ziqian feel like they had a sense of nobility.
At the same time, at the United Nations Peacekeeping Police Headquarters, Hu Rong, who had just returned from patrol, suddenly received an order to go to the palace in a dress to attend the state banquet. But this is an invitation from the royal family, and they can do it, and the dizzy Hu Rong hurriedly rushed into the public bathroom to take a shower, changed into a police dress and wore a ribbon, and got into the car with her hair still wet.
The state banquet was held in the new royal palace of Western Sadamoa, which is an ancient Greek-style building built by a Chinese company, there are no walls only pillars, the ground is all paved with marble, there are no electric lights, only countless candlesticks, holy like a temple, and even more dazzling is the countless fountains in the courtyard of the palace, which are dazzling in the night, and the hot temperature is also reduced with the water mist of the fountains.
The banquet was not as grand as expected, and there were not many guests invited, but UN officials, envoys from various countries, representatives of peacekeeping police, and representatives of Chinese-funded enterprises, Li Kun and Wei Ziqian saw Hu Rong sitting opposite, and they all smiled knowingly at each other.
After the guests were seated, the host appeared, and the three women were waiting for the appearance of that person with excitement, as expected, Liu Ziguang and His Majesty Arthur appeared together, an old man and a young man wore the same evening dress, white top, black pants, white bow tie, and his demeanor was incomparable, if it wasn't for the difference in skin color, it looked like father and son.
The dishes at the state banquet in Western Sadamoa were much more shabby than the environment, a piece of beef, a fish from the Gulf of Guinea, a banana, a glass of sugar cane-stuffed dessert wine, and nothing else.
On such a formal occasion, Li Kun's words could only be held in his heart, Wei Ziqian even lowered his head to eat silently, and even Officer Hu, who was usually very aggressive, became a docile kitten at this moment, and his gestures seemed so unnatural.
The banquet was just a formality, and the main event was yet to come, when the king invited everyone to a musical evening to pray for peace at the San Juan Stadium.
The group came to the stadium by car, and Hu Rong saw that it was her colleagues who were performing security tasks outside the stadium, and they also saw Hu Rong sitting in the car and waved to her.
The seats of the VIPs are located in the box of the rostrum, the security measures are tight, and there is a supply of air conditioning on the hot summer night, which is much more comfortable than the spectators in the stands, the San Juan Stadium was built in the 80s and can accommodate 6,000 people, but today at least more than 10,000 people have come, and the stands are crowded with people, and the lights are shining, shining on the big stage below.
The waiter brought the program list, and Li Kun glanced at it, almost stunned.
U2, Madonna, Rolling Stones, Paul? McCartney, Aden? John, Sting, the Eagles, Arthur the Kid, BeyoncΓ©, Jenny? Jackson, Celine? Dion, Maria? Kelly, Enya, Paul? Simon, Britney? Spears, Christine? Aguilera, Ricky? Martin, Jennifer? Hudson, Miyuki Nakajima, Li Shuangjiang and Liu Huan from China, and many unknown names, this is simply the world's top music feast.
Li Kun suddenly understood why there were so many private planes parked at San Juan Airport, it turned out that they were all here to attend the concert! She couldn't help but glance at Liu Ziguang, how much appeal this man has.
As if guessing what she was thinking, Liu Ziguang smiled: "They didn't come here just to see my face, this is a spontaneous, music event with world peace as the main theme, all the singers come at their own expense, perform on a voluntary basis, and of course they will not charge tickets." β
Hu Rong stretched out her head and asked in a low voice, "You are adding a burden to our peacekeeping police, how high should this security standard be!" Don't tire people to death, and say, What other moths have you prepared? β
Liu Ziguang smiled: "In a few days, the Barcelona football team will come to play a friendly match with the Western Sadamoa national team, but what you said is also very reasonable, it will not be good if someone makes trouble at such a big event." β
At this time, the concert has begun, and a young black female singer, Joan Armatrading, is singing a song called "FlighttheildGeese" to pay tribute to the people who died in the war in Africa.
Li Jianguo walked over and whispered a few words in Liu Ziguang's ear, Liu Ziguang smiled and nodded: "You can deal with it." β
In a low-slung house on the outskirts of San Juan, dimly lit and wild dogs barking outside, Colonel Miller of the CIA was strapped to a chair with his head drooping and blood dripping from the corners of his mouth......
The concert continued, with the eyes of the world focused on the San Juan Stadium, where countless cameras broadcast the top concert live to the television audience, with singers from all over the world performing and singing for freedom and peace.
What resonated with the Chinese present was a song sung by a music group from Hong Kong, China, Beyond, three shirtless men holding guitars appeared in dazzling lights and thunderous applause, and they first explained the origin of the song in Cantonese, which was originally a song dedicated to Mandela, the black leader of South Africa, and is dedicated today to a yellow-skinned Chinese who contributed to peace in Western Sadamoa.
The bell rings to welcome the glorious days......
Hold on to freedom in the wind and rain
A lifetime of hesitation and struggle
Self-confidence can change the future
Ask who can do it
Whether it is possible to distinguish between skin tones
May this land be full of glorious years regardless of whether you or I are high or low
Hold on to freedom in the wind and rain
A lifetime of hesitation and struggle
Self-confidence can change the future
Ask who can do it
The final finale was the chorus of Mike Jackson's "Healtheorld", the atmosphere reached the most **, and at the end of the song, the audience gave a standing ovation, warm and lasting.
War is far away, world peace, this is the theme of stirring in everyone's heart,
