Chapter 132: Celebration
Chinese On the high platform, the seats above are divided into two opposite directions, on one side are the seats of the Dutch royal family and the Dutch government, and on the other side, the seats of the South China Parliament and the South China government.
In front of the high platform were the seats of the invited representatives of the world, and behind these seats were the seats of the citizen representatives who were allowed to enter the venue, but all of them were converted into standing tickets.
But at this time, no one cares, and being able to witness the independence of Nanhua is a rare opportunity for anyone and worth remembering for a lifetime.
When Zhou Nan communicated with Cai Lao and them, he insisted on refusing to sit on the stage. Although it is a great honor for anyone to be able to sit on the stage at this time, his identity background is somewhat complicated, and sitting on the stage is somewhat inconsistent with international norms.
He was seated in the middle of a row, with the seats of the representatives of Great Britain, France, and the United States on the left, and beside him was Rehart, one of the seven consuls of Switzerland, who was also the Minister of Foreign Affairs.
To his right, on his right, sat representatives of the USSR and their republics, with Switzerland as the dividing line, and the two sides were clearly divided.
Audrey sat beside him a little uncomfortable, timidly paying attention to the surrounding environment, and whispered to Zhou Nan: "Jonas, I'll go to the back and sit with my mother and them, it's uncomfortable to sit here." ”
"Aren't you used to being in front of the media?"
Audrey didn't know how to express the different pressures brought to her by this different environment, and the solemnity around her made her feel breathless.
Unlike Audrey, Etinny and Stolko, who were sitting behind Zhou Nan, had a feeling of being at home. On behalf of Zhou Nan, they actively contacted and communicated with government representatives from all walks of life in the venue, and on this occasion, the importance of Zhou Nan was even more important, and he became the object of active contact with all representatives.
Many people who are inconvenient to contact directly, but need to be contacted, will communicate and coordinate through him as an intermediary. So Etinny and Stolko, from the moment they entered the venue, became the busiest people.
At half past nine, Queen Wilhelmina entered the venue with the representatives of the Netherlands, who did not go directly to the stage, but talked to the representatives of various governments one by one.
Although today is also the home of the Netherlands, the Netherlands has long lost the glory of the sea coachman, and the international influence of many people on the scene is far greater than the influence of the Netherlands, a second-rate country.
It was almost ten o'clock before they were invited to the high platform by the staff.
When a group of South China delegates ascended the platform, all the people were boiling. Because no matter Cai Lao, Chen Lao, or Pan Lao, they are all dressed in Hanfu crown clothes, and all of them are red main colors, inlaid with black and yellow edges.
The Hanfu on their bodies is not much different from the Hanfu on Zhou Nan's body, with the right side of the collar and the wide sleeves of the praise clothes, and only a few parts are a little different.
After Givenchy helped him make two sets of Hanfu under the commission of Zhou Nan, he came to Nanhua and designed this set of Hanfu with several scholars who have a deep study of traditional culture.
Nanhua is located in the south, the five elements belong to fire, and the fire is still red, so red is the main color.
Unlike Zhou Nan, who only paid attention to comfort and coolness at the beginning, every detail of this crown dress is full of exquisiteness, in line with traditional etiquette and exquisiteness, and will be determined in the future to become Nanhua's national uniform.
In addition to tiara dresses, they are also actively developing new styles, regular clothes, women's skirts, and will be launched one by one in the future.
Nowadays, the whole world is learning from European and American culture, and suits have become almost the common dress of the whole world. The last time Zhou Nan was at Eliza's wedding, he wore Hanfu to attend, which can be said to be a personal act, even if the Western media paid some attention, but it was not involved in national emotions.
But now it's completely different, it's a great ceremony of independence for a country, and it's not just one person, but all the leaders wear it like this, then it's obvious.
The upward and downward effects are as good as those in ancient and modern China and abroad.
Although South China is an overseas country, it is also committed to inheriting Chinese civilization, which has the greatest impact on both sides of the civil war.
If it were at any other time, I'm afraid they would only think that Nanhua's behavior was out of courtesy. However, now the situation is unclear, Dading is undecided, and no one has come out to say that Nanhua is arrogant in doing so, but there is a sense of national pride.
Pan Zhicheng was a little unaccustomed to tidying up the somewhat loose cuffs and took out a manuscript from it. As the host of today's ceremony, his heart is full of a strong sense of pride and a sense of excitement that he has no regrets in his life.
In terms of high morality, he is not as good as Speaker Cai Lao, in terms of extensive travel, he is not as good as Chen Lao, and in terms of the scale of family capital, he is only average.
He was elected prime minister of the first government in this election, on the one hand, because he was neutral in his governing thinking, not impatient or impatient, and on the other hand, because he was "young and promising".
Born in '95, he is only 52 years old this year, and he will be appointed prime minister for at least 10 years of stability. Although the current South China has a blue road, it has an economic advantage that many countries do not have because of the collective rule of big businessmen.
What South China needs on its way to development is not radical, but stable. As long as we firmly follow the predetermined direction of development, after completing the basic layout of the country, the road back will not be difficult.
More than half of South China's 11 million population is middle-class, an advantage that even developed countries such as the United States and the United Kingdom cannot match.
Therefore, the stability of the first government team is more important than anything else.
Only stability can ensure that the economic strength that Nanhua now has will become a comprehensive national strength.
At ten o'clock, Pan Zhicheng walked to the podium in front of the high platform, and he took a deep breath with some excitement to suppress his excited heartbeat.
He leaned a little closer to the large array of microphones placed on the podium, controlled his tone a little, and said in a sonorous voice: "Your Majesty the Queen, the Honourable Parliamentary Delegates of the Netherlands, the distinguished guests of various countries, the distinguished media representatives of all countries around the world, and all the citizens of the Republic of South China. Today is November 21, 4644 in the Yellow Emperor calendar, and January 1, 1948 in the Western calendar. Today, the Republic of South China was officially established! ”
Through the radio, his voice spread to all parts of South China, to all parts of Southeast Asia, and even to every corner where the signal could reach.
Suddenly, a tsunami-like cheer resounded all around as soon as his words fell. Everyone stood up and cheered passionately, and even the delegates of various countries stood up and applauded.
Subsequently, the military bands that had been waiting on both sides of the platform played the Dutch national anthem, and then the South China national anthem. When the Nanhua national anthem sounded, it could be heard clearly, and there were neat singing inside and outside the venue.
Pan Lao and Cai Lao on the stage also sang loudly one by one, and many of them were embarrassed and burst into tears.
After the national anthem was sung, Pan Lao controlled his emotions and leaned in front of the microphone again. "Since the Qin and Han dynasties, countless Chinese have begun to explore areas outside the mainland, and according to the historical relics excavated in Nanhua, there were Chinese living and developing in this land more than 2,000 years ago. But it was not until today, more than 2,000 years later, that we Chinese finally established our own political power in this land. Nanhua will no longer be just a geographical term, but will truly become our living country and spiritual home. ”
The scene was thunderous applause, cheers one after another, and the sound was deafening. Pan Zhicheng pressed down with his hands, and the cheers at the scene gradually subsided, and he said loudly: "Nanhua is not only a country of Chinese, but an open country that includes Chinese, Malays, Wus, Javanese, Malugu and other ethnic minorities. We are open, free and inclusive, and are willing to establish equal diplomatic relations with any sovereign country in the world, and are also willing to establish friendly trade relations with any country that is not prejudiced and can treat South China equally. ……”
The letter to the people that Pan Lao is reading now is not written by Zhou Nan, and he has not had the time and energy to write an announcement that will be acceptable to the vast majority of people recently.
Because this announcement is not only a speech, but also a diplomatic announcement representing South China's political position and economic development policy.
In this article, it is not only necessary to take into account the attitudes of all aspects, but also to position Nanhua clearly and reasonably.
More importantly, times are evolving, and the situation is changing. No matter how reasonable an announcement may seem now, it may become out of place over time.
Zhou Nan didn't have time to think about all aspects of the problem, but Nanhua definitely has no shortage of talents in this area, not to mention writing a vernacular announcement, that is, writing an edict in classical Chinese, and countless people can do it.
The proclamation first expounded Nanhua's ethnic and foreign policies, and then detailed the economic policies to be implemented by Nanhua.
On the contrary, in terms of national defense policy, he did not elaborate on it, because South China still has a Dutch suzerainty at its head after all. Everything follows the Netherlands, and there will be no political mistakes.
The existence of this suzerainty seems to have some shackles on the independence of South China, and it is not good to say it. However, now there is a suzerainty above the head to help Nanhua shelter from the wind and rain, which is actually beneficial to Nanhua.
What era is it now? At the beginning of the Cold War!
Almost all countries in the world need to choose sides, or they will be beaten and excluded. Nanhua, on the other hand, does not need to worry about this.
The Netherlands is the suzerain, and it is right for us to follow the suzerain.
In order to win over South China, the Soviet Union planted a nail at the maritime crossroads of Malacca, and it would not force South China too tightly, and would even give some preferential conditions to win over.
Therefore, the current South China has a suzerain, which is more in line with short-term interests than complete independence.
As for the future, in a few decades, the world situation will change again. At that time, it was not too late for Nanhua to become completely independent.
(The limited pen power, coupled with the threat of the Harmony Army, did not dare to write more about the independence and foreign policy of South China.) High, the tide seems to be a little bland, I hope you forgive me. )
