Before lunch, Zhou Nan and Entlebuch went to the conference hall that was almost completed.

The conference hall was not just one, but five, one of which was a conference hall that could accommodate 1,200 people, and was divided into three levels of auditorium, like a concert hall, with seats almost surrounding the stage.

It is not only a place where conferences can be held, but also concerts, stage plays, and even movies can be staged.

At the front of the stage, at the top of the aisle, there are four press areas designed to facilitate the filming of reporters. In the center of the hall, a small platform was designed to be lowered from the ceiling, which could accommodate four cameras and eight film crews.

Now TV does not have a live broadcast function, and with the development of science and technology in the future, the influence of TV will gradually exceed that of newspapers and radio, at this time, of course, it is necessary to plan for the future.

Except for this hall, which is more than three stories high, which is also the overall height of the building, the other four small conference halls are only two stories high because they only have two to four hundred seats.

Unlike the lobby, except for the press gallery at the front of the stage, the press seats here are at the back.

There is also a floor above these four small halls, which is the office space of the venue.

It is designed not only for the World Economic Forum, but also for international conferences at other times.

Not only is it the best place to visit Switzerland, but more importantly, there are countless international organisations in Switzerland. Therefore, it is not difficult to contact the holding of some international conferences.

According to Zhou Nan's vague memory of the conference hall in later generations, Zhou Nan also made a little hint in the design process of this building. For example, reserve press seats and increase the number of TV shooting slots.

"Jonas, whether it's Weggis or Hilton, I hope you can also play a role in liaising with some international organizations to hold meetings here."

"As the honorary chairman of this economic forum, it is my duty to shirk it." Zhou Nan is calm on the surface, but his heart is already surging.

In this era of ruins waiting to be rebuilt, Weggis has built such a high-level venue in front of everyone, and this will naturally become the first choice for meetings.

Moreover, in addition to the various conferences, there is also the Lucerne Music Festival, which can also play a big role here, and in the future there can even be a Lucerne Film Festival......

Cannes, one of the three major film festivals in the world, only held its first edition in the true sense of the word this year, and they didn't even have a main venue, but it was held in an old casino.

Although the Venice Film Festival was held several times before the war, it was not very influential at this time. The current political atmosphere in Italy is strong, and movies must also be linked to politics, so the credibility has not yet been affirmed.

As for the Berlin Film Festival, it's still a no-brainer. In Zhou Nan's impression, it was not until after the Berlin crisis that the situation between the East and the West stabilized that the Berlin Film Festival was held.

There are such good hardware conditions here, as long as it is properly organized and the evaluation is fair. The influence of the Lucerne Film Festival may surpass that of several others and become the most influential film festival in the world.

However, this matter is not urgent, he still needs to think about it, not only to find the positioning of the film festival, but also to maximize his influence.

"Jonas, this morning we have received requests for interviews from more than 20 media outlets, more than 30 calls for invitations, and the Federal Council is urging you to go to Bern in the afternoon, where it is said that there are more than 200 international collaborations to be consulted on. The Ambassador of the Netherlands has personally made three phone calls today and wants to come and visit, and I told him that you will be going to Bern today, and he wants to have a direct dialogue with you. ”

Rotentum quickly reported the matters that needed to be dealt with today to Zhou Nan, who frowned and asked, "Is it a call from the Dutch ambassador in person?" ”

"Yes, I'm sure it's Ambassador Van Lenhardt."

"You call him back, I'm not sure how late I'm going to be today, so if I don't have time tonight, I'll invite him to breakfast tomorrow morning."

Of course, all media interviews were rejected at this time, and Zhou Nan could push the invitations of other countries. At this time, it is not appropriate for him to say anything, and these invitations should be approved by Congress.

After dealing with these official duties, Rotentum reported: "The antiques and silk you bought from the Soviet Union have arrived in Zurich, and we still need to go through the formalities for the customs clearance of antiques." The eight cars you drove back yesterday ......"

Zhou Nan interrupted her and said, "You don't need to report these business matters to me in the future, just report directly to Helder in the future." Trivial matters were reported to Ettinny, and decisions on political matters were reported to Stolko first. All these transactions, I just need to see the report. ”

"Understood."

Zhou Nan frowned and thought for a while, and said: "Today on the 11th, wait until the afternoon of the 16th, organize an internal gathering, and I will officially arrange all the affairs at the meeting." ”

After being delayed for so long, Zhou Nan should also sort out the internal management and determine the scope of responsibilities of each person.

After lunch, Zhou Nan got on the bus to Bern and sent Audrey to school, and she reluctantly lingered with Zhou Nan before opening the car door. "Jonas, Bern is not far away, and when it's not busy, I'd like you to come home and rest."

"I'll try my best, but I've been busy lately, and I've had a lot of socializing, so I'll be relaxed after this time."

A little more than an hour later, Zhou Nan arrived at the Federal Palace in the old town of Bern.

Entering the congressional secretariat, there were already more than thirty people sitting at the conference table, and at the conference table, each of them had a thick stack of papers in front of them.

After a brief greeting, Zhou Nan quickly got into the working state.

"Audit Scheme for Buying Wheat from Egypt."

"Plans to deliver electricity to the United States in the German occupation zone."

"A support plan for the development of precision industry."

"Promote humanitarian programs in primary and secondary school textbooks."

"National Energy Reserve Program."

"Pasture to Farm Support Program."

A series of plans on internal affairs, economy, foreign affairs, and other aspects were quickly discussed by Zhou Nan and the others, and preliminary opinions were reached. Only after they pass their review will these plans be sent to various committees for supplementation and argumentation, and finally to Congress for review.

The Federal Council will not begin to implement these plans until they have been approved by Congress.

There are many clauses in this that have nothing to do with Zhou Nan at all, and do not need his opinion, but many people attach more importance to Zhou Nan's opinion in many plans in diplomacy and economy, including education.

It was busy until seven o'clock in the evening, when it was already dark, and the meeting ended. Zhou Nan's business is not over, he has dinner with the members of the Federation Council to discuss some measures to deal with some international problems.

Participation in the deliberations of the National Assembly is only his deputy, he is an adviser to the Federal Council, and his work focuses on the implementation of the proposals, not the legislative ones.

Today is Monday, and before the regular meeting of the Federation Council on Wednesday, they have more than 100 plans to finalize, and Zhou Nan is still very busy with his tasks.

"Jonas, the waves that the Netherlands have made in the East Indies have already affected the future of the world. In particular, in order to get the support of the Chinese, the Dutch side has been consciously or unconsciously revealing your importance in this plan. You're getting too much attention at the moment, and in recent times, I want you to refrain from giving any more opinions on this matter. ”

Philippe was one of the seven consuls and came from the CDU. Seeing that everyone else was nodding, Zhou Nan knew that they had reached an agreement on this matter.

However, this matter was originally for Zhou Nan's sake, so he nodded and said, "I will have breakfast with Van Lenhardt tomorrow morning and ask the Dutch side what it means." In the future, all my wishes will be communicated to the outside world through a joint decision of the Federation Council. ”

Etter smiled and said: "This is the way to be a qualified politician, we will not mention the previous things, I hope that in the future you can play a greater role in the economic development of Switzerland." ”

"Of course."

That night, they were busy until midnight, when Zhou Nan stayed at the Hotel Dieteau in Petitpierre.

Early the next morning, he had a half-hour conversation with the Dutch ambassador Van Lenhardt in the hotel restaurant.

During the half-hour exchange of opinions, Zhou Nan agreed that they could use their own name to obtain the support of the Chinese, and that they were willing to meet with the Chinese representatives after the approval of the Federation Council.

The Dutch side has also promised to give the Chinese a more relaxed environment in Southeast Asia, not only the economic environment, but also the political environment. As long as the Chinese can recognize the honorary status of the Dutch queen, the Dutch side will spare no effort to support the Chinese military force to jointly fight against the Javanese who have always disagreed with the Dutch decision.

However, Zhou Nan asked the Netherlands to play down his role in the process as much as possible. He is now an official in Switzerland, in a high position, and emphasizing Zhou Nan's role will only make him more passive.

At its regular session on Wednesday, the Federal Council adopted a total of 35 resolutions, 19 of which are related to international economic policies, in which Zhou Nan has contributed to a greater or lesser extent.

On Thursday, in the midst of his busy schedule, Zhou Nan attended a drinking party hosted by Hermann Hesse to celebrate his 46th anniversary of winning the Nobel Prize in Literature.

Hesse was not well known in the East, but in the West he was a literary figure of high status, and his best friend was Romain Rolland, who had died the year before. It's just that his works are more esoteric and have never become popular works.

At the reception, Zhou Nan and Hesse also had a brief exchange, and during the meeting, Zhou Nan discovered that he knew Chinese Taoism very well, Lao Tzu and Zhuangzi were philosophers he admired very much, and his books were also influenced by them, full of Taoist philosophical thoughts.

Because of this common ground, the two talked very happily, and agreed on a time to get together again, and the two had more cultural exchanges.

In Bern, Zhou Nan stayed until Saturday before returning home. And by this time, the decision of the Netherlands in the East Indies had already formed a huge storm.

(The next chapter should be out in the evening, I'll try to get it early.) ）
