Switzerland's political system is a wonder in the world political arena, and the existence of Zhou Nan is even more wonderful.

With the exception of administrative officials, officials in Switzerland are almost always part-time. And the Swiss administrative officer, to put it bluntly, is also a migrant worker, who only has the power to work, but not the power to make decisions.

Whether you are a governor or an archon, like a janitor, your duty is to serve the people.

The power of all people is only the power within the scope of your job, and there is no other privilege.

As recently as last December, one of the consuls, Stampfrey, was the true leader of the country, and in 44 years, he also served as the country's president.

He was drinking with a friend in a bar in Geneva, and had a conflict with others, and was directly pressed to the ground by the other party and punched twice, and the bruise on his face took half a month to disappear.

If it had been in another country, the other party would have been arrested long ago. But in Switzerland, because he also did it, he was only fined two hundred Swiss francs and six hours of community service.

He was also fined 100 Swiss francs for disturbing the peace.

If he wants to get into trouble with the other party, the rest will be in the hands of the police, and he has to go to the police station to file a case.

He couldn't get angry, and he did go to the police station to report the case, and then asked the other party to apologize.

Because the other party insisted on refusing, the case was transferred to the court. Well, the case went all the way to the state courts, where both sides spent almost a thousand Swiss francs each, and in the end he won.

The other party bore most of the legal costs and apologized to him.

But because of the lawsuit, he lost the trust of the parliament. Because the other party is just a coolie, his income is three times that of the other party, and now because of this lawsuit, the other party's life is in trouble all of a sudden.

In addition to losing the trust of parliament, he was also warned by the party, and the media scolded him like a dog.

Under the pressure of public opinion, he had to choose to resign.

This is the leader of a country, and he has to resign after being beaten.

However, this is the norm in Swiss society, where the law and public opinion are biased in favor of the poor.

Because the people of this country are made up of those who do not want to be governed by the royal family, the government, and the only purpose of the existence of all officials is to serve the people.

Even if you are the consul of the Federal Council of this country, you are only a high-ranking civil servant. You may have some executive power in your hands, but this administrative power cannot be converted into your personal power.

At this regular meeting, Zhou Nan will face the vote of one less person.

And Zhou Nan is also a wonder, and his existence is almost unique in the world.

His position is somewhat like an adviser to the country's leaders, but he is a voting decision-maker within the system.

However, he does not have any administrative power in his hands, because this position is only a part-time job.

Fortunately, his opinion has not been missed since he entered the decision-making circle, which has led to his voice even exceeding that of an executive.

Moreover, his current public support is still very high. A leader who makes decisions at all times is in the interests of Switzerland, not only in the parliament, but also in the general public.

Another strange feature of Swiss politics is that all meetings of the parliament are open, and any Swiss person can participate in the parliamentary voting as long as he or she applies for it.

Every meeting of the parliament can be attended by the media and ordinary citizens, so almost everyone knows what almost everyone has done.

This is also the main reason for Zhou Nan's high support rate.

So, after Stampfrey's resignation, the parliament listed Zhou Nan as one of the candidates for consulship, and although he is still half a year short of five years after living in Switzerland, most people seem to have forgotten about it.

However, Zhou Nan did not forget that he read the law to everyone at a hearing in the National Assembly, did not live for five years, and he was not qualified to serve as an archon.

At this time, the parliament had no choice but to elect two other candidates to come out and conduct an election, so that Zhou Nan would continue to serve as his deputy secretary-general.

Zhou Nan definitely didn't want to be this consul, because this was a full-time job. Holding this position meant that he could no longer write books and pursue other professions.

Of course, you can do your own thing in your spare time, but you must not do anything with your job.

There may be many politicians who want to become an archon and serve as a minister, but Zhou Nan definitely doesn't want to.

His ambition in life was not to be a civil servant and to serve the Swiss people.

If he had to choose a public office, he would rather go to South China to serve the Chinese.

Of course, no one can force him now, so he is willing to hide in Switzerland to write a book, publish an album, and then hide behind politics to influence the development of history.

This sense of self-existence and pleasure in changing history is definitely not comparable to the production capacity of a presidential position.

At the end of the Second World War, Switzerland, like other countries, shifted its focus to economic development.

The total amount of investment signed by the Swiss side with Nanhua reached 1.5 billion US dollars, and the investment in a large hydropower station alone accounted for more than half of the contract amount.

And Vera, now married to the Geigie family in O'Elli, will also invest more than $10 million in South China to build a pharmaceutical factory, a chemical plant, and a medical research center.

However, their family is now being liquidated very badly, and they can't take out the two million of the investment start-up capital, or Zhou Nan guaranteed it, so they borrowed a three-million dollar emergency fund from the bank.

In addition to the Vera family's business, companies like Nescafe are also preparing to invest heavily in South China, and they are ready to grow coffee there because of Borneo's excellent climatic conditions.

Although Borneo is now short of manpower, the land is under the control of the state, and there are more than 100,000 square kilometers of land that can be planted, and there is no need to face complex land rights disputes.

As for the manpower problem, Nanhua has also promised to solve it within a year. And they need to study the local soil problems, environmental problems, and really invest a lot, at least a year or two.

Another company that has signed tens of millions of dollars is Roche Pharmaceutical. Zhou Nan never thought in advance that this company had something to do with him, because one of the founders of this company turned out to be Felix Hoffman of the Hoffman family.

That is, Hoffman, who invented heroin, which harmed the most people, and aspirin, which saved the most.

Although he is the chief scientist of Bayer, he is also one of the founders of Roche Pharmaceuticals, but he is not good at management and has been hiding behind the scenes.

It was also this investment in Nanhua that Felix, who had been hidden behind Roche Pharmaceutical, wanted to make a relationship through Zhou Nan, so he came to the fore.

And his appearance also made Zhou Nan understand that the world's richest man Villa Hoffman, who is vague in his memory, may really be Villa. And in another life, I am afraid that it is because of Felix's relationship that she can marry O'Eli Gapi.

It's just that the fate of other people, it is impossible to know, why Vera didn't find herself later, and there is no way to know the reason.

Zhou Nanning wished that she didn't care about herself, and she didn't want to believe that it was because other people had misfortune that made her hate herself.

Zhou Nan is a core leader in Switzerland and has a high status in South China, so now he has become the most authoritative decision-maker.

Everyone has very optimistic expectations for the comprehensive cooperation between Switzerland and South China.

Under such a large environment, there are countless Swiss companies willing to invest in Nanhua, and it took Zhou Nan two days just to check these investment applications.

The result, of course, was that almost all the investments were allowed, while a large number of industrial products were sold to South China.

From road building machinery, offshore drilling platforms, complete sets of machine tools, to nail clippers, this time the economic and trade cooperation between Switzerland and Nanhua is definitely a super big order.

However, this is not Switzerland alone, in addition, the Netherlands, the United States, and the United Kingdom have also signed super large orders.

After all, the current South Chinese people have nothing but money and some low-tech industries invested by the Chinese.

On the 24th, Zhou Nan came to Geneva and held a one-day meeting with the Red Cross to determine the procedures for the award ceremony. As for the list of winners, it was decided last month.

This selection is worldwide, and if you don't notice one or two months in advance, I'm afraid many people won't be able to catch up.

On the 25th, Zhou Nan returned to his home, and Marita, with a few girlfriends and a group of entourage, came to the farm as a guest again.

Fortunately, Hughes felt that it was inconvenient to live in Zhou Nan's house because he called a few female companions from the United States, so he moved out, and if this guy was there, Zhou Nan was worried that he would coax these noble girls to bed.

He is the most popular idol in Europe and the United States, and there is no one.

The status of a billionaire and an adventurer allows him to attract a large number of girls without opening his mouth.

What's more, this guy is also eloquent, and he can say anything in front of girls.

Pan Donkey Deng Xiaoxian, this guy occupies all of them alone, so most girls can't escape from the palm of his hand.

The arrival of Marita was not only a group of girls, but also Captain Anderson, who was in constant contact with Zhou Nan.

With the independence of East Pakistan about to be declared, the British seemed to have forgotten their role in crossing the river and tearing down bridges over Burma, and came to ask Zhou Nan for advice on the position between East and West Pakistan and India.

Zhou Nan had been waiting for them here for a long time, and he took out a map of India, and he told Captain Anderson that Britain should not completely withdraw from South Asia, and at least keep a navy there, and sell weapons and warships by the way.

This is, of course, Zhou Nan's selfishness. With a British army in place, India would not dare to brazenly turn Nepal, Manipur, and Sikkim into its own vassals.

Moreover, there is a British army there as a-stirring stick, and the more weapons are sold, the more chaos there is, and the better it will be for the Chinese.

As for whether the British are willing to listen to it, Zhou Nan doesn't care, anyway, he hasn't received this year's consulting fee yet, and he can give him a casual point, which is already worthy of them.
