The 9th year of the Republic of China, August 9, 1970.

Capitol hill.

This is what is known as the U.S. Capitol.

A large number of guards stood with serious expressions, nervously watching every move around them. A large number of reporters flocked there, anxiously waiting for something.

Some parliamentarians began to appear.

They are not willing to give up this opportunity to show themselves. Some of them shook their hands, greeted God knows who they were, showed their "affinity", and some were interviewed by familiar reporters.

A congressman named Vincent was stopped by an old friend of the journalist and happily accepted the interview.

"How do you feel about the Chinese president's speech to Congress?"

"I'm looking forward to it."

"What do you think the Chinese president will say?"

"Who knows? Maybe talk about the weather in Warwickton? ”

"You're just meeting with a private delegation from Japan, and given the current tensions between China and Japan, does that mean you're going to raise questions about China-Japan relations during your speech?"

Vincent replied professionally, "If you give me this opportunity, I think I'll try to ask questions." ”

The convoy flying the flags of China and the United States drove over and immediately attracted the attention of all the journalists. The reporter who was interviewing Vincent immediately threw down Vincent and flashed wildly at the team's spotlights.

Vincent was very dissatisfied, since the arrival of the Chinese president in the United States, all the media have been drawn to it, and his exposure rate has been much less.

The convoy slowly stopped.

The car door was opened, and Wang Hengyue, the president of the Republic of China, slowly got out of the car.

The reporters went crazy, the cameras went crazy, and the whole room was surrounded by flashes of magnesium lights.

"Mr. President, may I ask ......?"

"Excuse me, Mr. President......"

One by one, the questions were desperately thrown at Wang Hengyue, Wang Hengyue smiled and beckoned to them, but did not answer any questions.

Walking into the Capitol chamber, most of the lawmakers had already arrived.

Without applause, Speaker Prell A. Carter greeted Wang Hengyue and led him to the podium.

The introduction of Wang Hengyue burst into sparse applause, and the response was not as enthusiastic as expected.

All this was expected by Wang Hengyue, he always had a smile on his face, and he said in skillful English: "Without applause, there will be no speech, just like eating steak and forgetting to put a knife and fork, you will protest to the waiter then, please allow me to protest to you here!" ”

There was a burst of laughter among the parliamentarians, and the applause was renewed, this time much more enthusiastic.

"Well, the knife and fork are up now, and my protest is over for the time being."

The laughter sounded again with Wang Hengyue's words. Well, it is said that Oriental people are stereotyped, but now it seems that this Mr. President is not stereotypical at all, on the contrary, he is quite humorous.

Wang Hengyue's voice spread in the conference hall:

"I am very much looking forward to this visit to the United States. Of course, there are some people who are not particularly looking forward to it, and they are full of hostility, but this does not affect anything, people cannot always have friends and no enemies in their lives, and the same is true of a country.

My country has some enemies, of course, more friends. For example, the United States. This is my first foreign visit, and it is also the first Chinese head of state to visit a foreign country in thousands of years, and I chose the United States for this first stop, because I respect this country, and I am willing to choose you to be China's friends, but this is based on mutual respect......"

Wang-Hengyue's words began to attract these parliamentarians and gentlemen, and some of the parliamentarians who had been sitting casually also straightened up.

Wang Hengyue's words continued to ring in their ears:

"There is a great power in the West, the United States of America, which has a very short history; There is a big country in the East, China, which has a long history. But history does not hinder exchanges between the two countries, and in many ways, we share common goals and beliefs, and we need close cooperation on many things

In fact, before this, that is, before the reunification of my country was completed, I had maintained a full friendship with the United States, and I am grateful to the US Government for its support and friendship. I don't want such friendships to deteriorate with the intervention of some countries, and if that were the case, it would be a great pity. Ladies and gentlemen, you can imagine what it would be like if one day you lost a rising giant ally in the Far East. ”…,

"It's best if two giants stand side by side," Prell A. Carter muttered.

Wang Hengyue heard it very clearly, and he smiled slightly:

"Yes, Mr. Speaker said just now, it is best for two giants to stand side by side, so why don't we come up with such a choice? Politically, we have a common enemy, at least now in Russia, the Chinese army, the American army, are fighting together on Russian soil. Our soldiers are bleeding, the United States has given us tremendous support, and our common goal is to restore justice, fairness, and freedom to Russia...... This is everything we strive for, and no enemy can destroy it......".

The attention of the parliamentarians was completely focused, and they listened to Wang Hengyue go on:

"Not only in Russia, but I believe that we will be able to cooperate more closely in many areas in the future.

A new world order is being formed, and whoever ignores it and despises it will be distanced by the wheels of history......"

Economically, we cooperate more with each other. The Americans have a lot of investment in China, and just as China is about to invest a lot in the United States, there are many benefits that can be brought to us by promoting the economic development of the two countries. Don't confront, don't be hostile, and get what everyone deserves, which is the most important thing. If an investment can bring a win-win situation to each other, hell, only a fool will not do it"

Another soft laugh came.

Well, even Congressman Vincent had to admit that the Chinese president was telling the truth, and there was no hypocrisy in the slightest, and he found that his attitude towards the Chinese president had changed somewhat.

In the face of interests, any kind of shield can be solved.

"Some people say that if China becomes strong, it will be a huge threat to American interests in the Far East, but such words seem to me to be the most ridiculous statement, and they can completely sweep the person who said this into the dustbin of history." Wang Hengyue said with a little contempt:

"What can a powerful China bring to the United States? To better maintain peace and order in the Far East, do some people think that the Far East in the midst of war can ensure its own interests? Then this person must be crazy. All investments will be reduced to ashes in the flames of war, and there will not be even a single fur left, and a weak China is not in the interests of the United States......

I would like to draw your attention to the fact that when the war broke out in Europe and the United States entered the war without hesitation, who was the US interests in the Far East encroached upon? Is it China? Or other countries with ulterior motives? While Europe and the United States are in dire need of help, is it China, or is it something else? A simple and easy answer is "

This has caused some low-level discussion among parliamentarians.

When the war broke out in Europe, European countries were busy with war, and the United States was busy aiding European countries, but that hated Japan continued to encroach on the interests of the United States and Europe in China and the Far East.

Think about it carefully, what did the Chinese president, who had not yet completed reunification, do? While trying his best to resist Japan's encroachment on China, he continued to sell the materials and resources that Europe urgently needed to Britain and France.

Obviously, he got a lot of money out of it, but making money is not something Americans hate.

What I really hate is Japan!

God, they are doing nothing, but they are digging into the corners of the United States and Europe......

Wang-Hengyue knew that his words resonated with the parliamentarians: "There are huge differences in ideas between the two sides, but this does not affect anything, this is just a collision of Eastern and Western cultures. Differences in philosophy can be put aside, and collaboration is our theme. The creation of a new order in the Far East is our primary concern. Any country, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, and, of course, China, when we abandon those preconceptions, a new world order is not far from us. I firmly believe that I can do it, and I believe that the United States can do it.

This visit will cause serious unhappiness in some countries, they are afraid to see a big country in the East, united with another big country, and they are trying to destroy it in every possible way, but who will care about this? There's a wider road ahead, why don't we go for it, why do we have to choose a path with potholes, God knows how many heels we'll stumble upon? Is it in the interests of the country that this is done?

I would like to draw the clear attention of all parliamentarians to this, and together we are strong; Confrontation, we will only consume each other's strength, there is an old Chinese saying, sandpiper and clam compete for the profit of the fisherman......" is what it means. We are friends, not enemies, and the gap in ideas can be eliminated, and if someone has to deliberately sabotage the cooperation between us, then that is the real enemy between China and the United States!

And this is the real purpose of my visit to the United States, we are looking for a friend who can cooperate and can be closely connected in everything! ”

Wang Hengyue's speech is finished. He smiled slightly and looked at all the councillors with confidence.

The chamber was very quiet, and then bursts of applause rang out from the hands of most of the councillors. ）
