Chapter 210: Transformation

The investigation of the assassination is currently in a difficult situation, and although the investigation of the murderer behind the scenes is involving the police of many countries, this era is not a country that has been stabilized in later generations, and many clues have lost their direction in the end.

Italy, for example, has been a modern state for less than 100 years and was originally a small city-state.

Although Mussolini strengthened the unified statistics of the country after taking office, there are still countless black households who do not submit to the unified rule of the government.

In some regions, such as the Duchy of Turin and the Duchy of Milan, the people there still cling to the traditions of the past and look at the poor ghosts of the south with contempt.

In the south, many regions are still patriarchal, and the mafia, which became famous in later generations, is not actually a kind of mafia, the existence of a black state, but an independent political system.

Even in the 21st century, patriarchy in Sicily still has a deep mass base.

In such a complex country, many people do not have an identity registration, and they only try to find someone through confessions, without photos, and many times it depends on luck.

Therefore, when the police often reach a certain stage of investigation, as long as the planner is hidden, it is difficult to find the real murderer.

What's more, the killers can even point the trail to their political enemies through deliberately throwing out specious evidence.

When pursuing a case, I am not afraid that there will be no clues, but I am afraid that there are many clues and the involvement is too great.

By the time the time it was mid-June, Zhou Nan's foot injury had already healed, and the investigation of the case had fallen into a complicated labyrinth.

The complicated situation in Italy is also the reason why the murderers deliberately chose to do it here, not really because Zhou Nan and Rome clashed.

Italy is a place of secret war between the East and the West, and Rome is a battlefield of Italian diplomacy and internal strife, and there is no place where the situation in Rome is so chaotic.

Any investigative trail ends up in a mess.

By the time the police station had already been arrested, more than 200 people had been arrested for this case.

More than half of the more than 200 people arrested were related to the spy agencies of various countries in the world, and as a result of this disturbance, more than half of the spy organizations of various countries in Italy were paralyzed.

At this point, it's time to let go.

Therefore, when the filming phase of the Roman holiday was over, Zhou Nan also left Rome and returned to Switzerland amid the apologies of the Italians.

In the eyes of the Italian police, Zhou Nan was probably a source of trouble, and happily sent him out of Rome like a plague god.

As soon as he returned to Jonas Farm, Zhou Nan smashed the plaster on his feet and no longer had to disguise himself.

Although this investigation did not find out the final murderer, Zhou Nan's goal was actually half achieved.

He tossed the Italian police to the death, showing his tough side, and no matter where he goes in the future, he will be highly valued by the local police.

And most of the spy organizations of various countries were also destroyed because of his assassination, which taught everyone a lesson, and any action against Zhou Nan in the future needs to be cautious.

And, although there is no conclusive evidence, by the time the investigation progressed to this stage, it had narrowed down the scope of the investigation to a handful of organizations.

However, in international disputes, the most important thing is evidence.

What's more, flipping the table is not the best way to solve the problem.

As soon as he returned to Jonas Farm, the Swiss Federal Council moved the week's regular meeting to Zhou Nan's home.

Zhou Nan warmly entertained these officials and parliamentarians in his own home, and reformulated a new plan for his various international actions in the future.

In the future, he can no longer do what he wants like before, and he can go abroad if he wants to. This is the protection of Zhou Nan, but it is also the result that Zhou Nan is most unwilling to see.

However, he can only accept this result. Because now he has too many interests and international balance involved, the importance of his security is too great.

The members of the Federation Council met for two days at Zhou's home, and after redefining Zhounan's identity, Zhounan also had to add some workload.

On June 17, at the regular press briefing of the Swiss Federal Parliament, Zhou Nan's name became the focus.

In addition to his position as Deputy Secretary-General of the Federal Council, Zhou Nan also holds the chairmanship of the three standing committees of the Federal Parliament.

The three standing committees are the Swiss Security Policy Committee, the Swiss National Policy Committee, and the Swiss Economic and Taxation Council.

In addition, he is also the Chairman of the Official Friendship Group of the Federal Parliament.

There are official and unofficial friendship groups within the Federal Parliament. The official name of the Official Friendship Group is "Permanent Delegations to Parliaments of Other States".

There were four such delegations: the German Bundestag, the Austrian Parliament and the Parliament of the Grand Duchy of Liechtenstein, the French Parliament and the Italian Parliament.

The establishment of a permanent mission is subject to the following conditions: the proximity of the other country's territory to Switzerland, the common interests, the particular political, economic, historical or cultural commonalities, and the political and economic influence of the partner country in its own neighbouring areas.

According to the rules, the official group meets with the parliaments of these countries once a year. The venue rotates between Switzerland and partner countries, and the meeting usually takes place in a scenic tourist area for one or two days.

At the same time, Zhou Nan also announced in a press release that he would form an unofficial friendship group. The name of the Panel is: Permanent Delegation to and from the South China Parliament.

The group will cooperate in all aspects of economic and trade exchanges, economic cooperation, technical exchanges, talent cultivation and talent exchange between Switzerland and South China.

Unofficial friendship groups are initiated by one or more parliamentarians who have a special interest in a number of countries.

Since these countries did not meet the requirements for the establishment of permanent missions, the friendship groups with which they interacted had to finance their own activities and received very limited administrative support from Parliament.

There is no limit to the number of members in such a group, and the activity of the group depends largely on the founders.

As soon as this news came out, it immediately attracted the attention of countries around the world. Because this means that Zhou Nan will break away from the original vague position and truly enter the center of Swiss power.

And this also means that Zhou Nan has completely cut off the possibility of joining the South China political arena and focused on Europe.

Zhou Nan also has no way, politics is a whirlpool, and anyone who joins in will be unknowingly involved in it.

Of course, he could have given up his position in Switzerland and joined South China. But at the same time, he has lost the space to mediate, and will face the pressure exerted by the East and the West.

At the same time, he will lose the foundation he has gained in the past few years, which will do more harm than good to himself and to Nanhua.

Today, he remains in Switzerland and still holds the title and status of the father of the European Union.

It can directly influence the policy between Europe and South China, as well as the relationship between Europe and the United States, and can also gain political recognition from Europe and the United States.

This is much stronger than his return to South China.

Because he is only stronger than others in controlling the direction, and he is not as good as other politicians in terms of specific affairs ability.

Although he is in Europe, he can still influence the development policy of South China, and that is enough.

The day after the meeting, the Swiss Ministry of Security sent a secret diplomatic note to the security agencies of several countries, expressing the importance that Switzerland attaches to Zhounan's personal safety.

It's a reminder and a warning.

Although Switzerland is a small country and has never been aligned, it is precisely because of this tradition that Switzerland has become a very important window of international exchange and a force that cannot be ignored in the world political arena.

Although the United Nations, under the influence of the United States, prepared to move its headquarters to New York, it was only the permanent establishment of the United Nations that moved to New York.

International exchanges and negotiations will continue to be centered on Switzerland. Because less than half of the countries in the world do not identify with the United States, but they all identify with Geneva, an international conference center.

In the decision of the United States to relocate the UN headquarters, it is not known how many countries voted against it. There was even a national initiative to expand the conference center next to Zhou Nan's house and build it into a United Nations headquarters, but it was vetoed due to opposition from the United States.

Therefore, although Switzerland is small, its international influence is definitely not small.

During this time, Zhou Nan was busy meeting with parliamentarians from all walks of life every day and having full exchanges with them on various foreign and security policies of Switzerland.

But in the evening, he had a discussion about editing the film with Billy Wilder, who was still in Switzerland, and executive producer Reina.

The preparation of a movie requires at least one-third of the energy. The preparation of the script, the director, the actors, the crew, and more importantly, the search for the background shots of the film all require countless energy.

After shooting the desired shot, it is only two-thirds of the way through, and the post-production recording, dubbing, background music, and editing are all important.

And although this "Roman Holiday" has now finished filming, it still needs to be carefully polished if it wants to truly become a classic.

The biggest change between the new version of "Roman Holiday" and the original is the change in the plot at the end.

The fight scenes on the dance floor on the river in the original version are so ridiculous that they were designed that way to set the stage for the two kissing scenes later.

Of course, Zhou Nan would not let his wife kiss others, so changes were made here.

Princess Anne dances with Bradley on the boat before being spotted by the guards. Then eight guards came to take the princess back, and the princess at the beginning also resisted and tried to escape, but she couldn't break through the cage of reality and was finally caught.

However, she is a princess after all, so when she promised to go back with the guards, she also won the opportunity to say goodbye to Bradley.

This farewell is also a superb part of the whole film. The princess confided her pain between duty and freedom, and although this day of vacation was her happiest, she still had to fulfill her responsibilities as a princess.

And Bradley struggles with the ambivalence of whether to get the scoop or not, and is finally touched by the princess.

At the press conference the next day, the princess learns of Bradley's identity and that they have taken many pictures of herself, and after Bradley and they return them, the princess offers to play a song for everyone.

And the princess played "Castle in the Sky".

Bradley seems to be purified against the background of music, and he drives the Beetle down the streets of Rome, a smile of relief gradually appearing on his face.

And the princess boarded the plane, returned to her own country, rode in a carriage, passed through the forest, and appeared at the gates of the royal castle.

The whole film ends with the music of "Castle in the Sky" with the princess playing the piano, rather than the original ending with a straight departure.

When Zhou Nan completed his editing plan in words, Billy Wilder also agreed, and after they returned to Hollywood, they would edit and dub according to this plot arrangement.

And Audrey will also go to Hollywood with them for the final dubbing.

Zhou Nan can't go now, his current identity is no longer suitable for going abroad casually.

After this Roman attack, he will go abroad in the future, and most of the time, he will be received according to the specifications of a state visit, so as to prevent such a thing from happening again.

Moreover, other countries will not allow him to enter the country like an ordinary person again, because if something happens, no one can bear this responsibility.

This time, the Italian police were tossed to death by Zhou Nan and the Swiss side.

The political arrangements finally came to an end, and Audrey went to the United States again, but Zhou Nan's life did not calm down.

At the end of June, Dutch forces finally captured Yogyakarta, the temporary capital of the Javanese, and almost wiped out the leaders of the resistance.

The United States and the Soviet Union did not want to see the combined forces of the Netherlands and South China to exterminate the Javanese, so they exerted tremendous pressure on the Dutch and South China to launch all-out negotiations with the Javanese.

And Nanhua was also satisfied after occupying the fertile land and all the oil fields on the island of Sumatra.

In this war alone, Nanhua has added more than 200,000 square kilometers of land, and now the total area is nearly 1 million square kilometers, almost the size of three Japans.

The population has also increased by more than five million, but most of them are Malays.

However, the Malay race is not a single ethnic group, but a collective name for a number of indigenous peoples living in Southeast Asia, among which the Malay people are the main ones, many of whom do not have their own language and script at all, and still live a primitive life.

As long as they have something to eat, they don't care who rules. Nanhua is also strengthening immigration from the mainland, since it is a country with Chinese as the main body, the number of Chinese must account for at least more than half, and the current population ratio is already dangerous.

In the first six months of this year, the number of Chinese in Nanhua has increased by more than 3 million, and the total population of Nanhua today is nearly 20 million, of which more than 11 million are Chinese.

However, this is not enough, human resources are still a bottleneck restricting the development of South China.

(The book was actually only about a third of the story, and it was originally planned to be written about '55 and then into the '80s.) But now I can only speed up the progress, and write out some of the follow-up content that I want to write relatively briefly, which can be regarded as a full stop for this calligraphy and painting, and the new book is also in preparation, hoping to connect it uninterruptedly at that time. Thank you. )
