Yang Deshan became Ibrahim I of Egypt, which was great news for Lan Fang. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Yang Deshan and Zhang Yuting are different, if Zhang Yuting gets his wish and becomes the president of the Republic of China, then the relationship between Lanfang and the Republic of China will be more intimate and become a friendly "comrade and brother" relationship. But Zhang Yuting was not born in the Foreign Legion after all, and the relationship between him and Qin Zhiyuan is far away after all, and the relationship between Lan Fang and the Republic of China will not reach the level of intimacy.

Yang Deshan is different, Yang Deshan was born in the Foreign Legion, and Qin Zhiyuan is naturally a superior-subordinate relationship, as long as Qin Zhiyuan does not interrupt his support for Yang Deshan, it is not easy for the British to separate the relationship between Qin Zhiyuan and Yang Deshan.

If it is not of my race, its heart will be different.

It is true that Easterners and Westerners can live in harmony with each other, but only if the Easterners are dominant.

Of course, Qin Zhiyuan has confidence in Yang Deshan, which does not mean that others also have it, the day after Yang Deshan's coronation, Lu Zhengxiang and Huang Bohan came to Qin Zhiyuan together to discuss the future policy towards Egypt.

"Yang Deshan is still trustworthy, from North Africa to the Middle East, Yang Deshan's status has been improving, but the performance is not out of line, our Lanfang can currently have this situation in the Middle East, Yang Deshan is indispensable, so for Yang Deshan and Egypt, we still have to support, and even increase our efforts to make the British feel threatened, so that the British will inevitably pay a greater price in order to win over Egypt, no matter how far the relationship between Lanfang and Egypt will go in the future, it must be a good thing to have a Chinese as the king of Egypt." Qin Zhiyuan set the tone first, and was also prepared for the worst.

"It's no problem to increase support, but let's organize a business delegation and build dozens of factories in Egypt, isn't it just throwing money? Who have we Lan Fang been afraid of? "Huang Bohan is wealthy, and when it comes to throwing money, he should not let it go.

Huang Bohan's way of doing things tends to be simple and rude, but the effect is not bad, the wealth is moving, the friendship is not good enough because the relationship is not in place, and the relationship is maintained by strength.

Economic strength is the most important strength.

"Egypt's diplomatic power is still in the hands of the British, and it is not easy for us to establish diplomatic relations with Egypt at the ambassadorial level. Lu Zhengxiang is more pragmatic, and the solution to the problem is more inclined to the political level.

"Try it first and see what the British will do." Qin Zhiyuan is not in a hurry, this ambassadorial-level diplomatic relationship is for ordinary countries, and Egypt is definitely not an ordinary country for Lan Fang now.

Even if Lanfang and Egypt cannot establish diplomatic relations at the ambassadorial level, it is fine, and Egypt's attitude towards Lanfang and the United States towards Lanfang will definitely be different.

Among all the major countries in the world, Lan Fang is left with the United States without establishing ambassadorial-level diplomatic relations, which will definitely have an impact on the relationship between Lanfang and the United States, for example, if the Lanfang government needs to communicate with the US government on something, without ambassadorial-level diplomatic relations, it will not get the corresponding degree of priority, which will affect the communication between the Lanfang government and the US government.

There will be no such problem with Egypt, even if the Lanfang government and the Egyptian government cannot establish ambassadorial-level diplomatic relations, the communication between the Lanfang government and the Egyptian government will definitely not be so difficult to communicate with the US government, Yang Deshan will definitely attach importance to the relationship with the Lanfang government, no matter what requirements the Lanfang government makes to the Egyptian government, Yang Deshan will not slack off.

At least for now.

"I have already been contacted, and yesterday I asked Randall Becky to propose to the British government to establish diplomatic relations with Egypt at the ambassadorial level, but the British did not agree and only allowed the establishment of the minister level." Lu Zhengxiang smiled bitterly, this can be regarded as a small setback in Lan Fang's foreign relations.

"The minister is the minister, our Lanfang's minister in Egypt may not be one level lower than the ambassador of other countries, if the British want to rely on this to provoke the relationship between our Lanfang and Egypt, then the British are miscalculated." Qin Zhiyuan didn't care, in Qin Zhiyuan's opinion, there was not much difference between a minister and an ambassador.

"That being said, it doesn't look good on your face." In front of Qin Zhiyuan, Lu Zhengxiang was not obscure.

Lu Zhengxiang is right, in the eyes of Orientals, the problem of face is indeed a big problem, even for individuals, it is unacceptable to lose face, and even more so at the national level.

"Then let Shaochuan suffer a little grievance, and the British won't be proud for long, let's wait and see." Qin Zhiyuan is not angry, unlike Lu Zhengxiang's diplomat thinking, Qin Zhiyuan, who was born as an agent, believes that the country's image is not maintained by diplomatic relations, it doesn't matter if you don't have face, and the most important thing is to get benefits.

"Shaochuan" is Gu Weijun, Gu Weijun originally waited for the normalization of relations between Lan Fang and the United States, and went to the United States to serve as Lan Fang's ambassador to the United States, Yang Deshan was crowned in Egypt, and Egypt's importance to Lan Fang instantly jumped above the United States, so Lu Zhengxiang has decided to let Gu Weijun serve as Lan Fang's ambassador to Egypt.

Well, now it's Lan Fang's minister to Egypt.

It doesn't matter much, Gu Weijun is used to enduring humiliation and burdens in the Republic of China, and the situation he wants to be in is a world of difference compared to when he was in the Republic of China, just like Qin Zhiyuan said, Gu Weijun, the minister, is indeed not very good in name, but in terms of actual influence, he may not lose to the ambassadors of other countries.

"Okay, I'll allocate a few more cars to Shaochuan, and make up for the loss outside the embankment." Lu Zhengxiang was half-joking, ready to compensate Gu Weijun from other aspects.

Do give some compensation.

After Yang Deshan became Ibrahim I, the British immediately announced their recognition of Yang Deshan's status in Egypt, and then the United States, France, Italy and Egypt rushed to establish "ambassadorial-level" diplomatic relations.

Yang Deshan also realized this, but Egypt's diplomatic power was controlled by the British, and Yang Deshan could not change this reality.

The fact that the "minister level" cannot be turned into an "ambassador level" does not mean that Yang Deshan cannot do anything.

After Lan Fang and Egypt announced the establishment of diplomatic relations at the ministerial level, the next step was the construction of the embassy.

The construction of the embassy requires building land, and this power is not in the hands of the British, so the specifications of the building land that Lanfang got are exceptionally high.

Generally speaking, a diplomatic mission is a "country within a state".

If the Lanfang government builds an embassy on the territory of the Egyptian government, it is equivalent to Lanfang's territory, and the Egyptians have no right to manage it, and the Lanfang government is responsible for everything from construction to defense.

In fact, for embassies and consulates, all countries do not have a fixed standard, and those who have conditions are naturally all kinds of splendid and high-end, and those who are not conditional, just like the Republic of China in Paris before, can find an apartment building, rent a room, and make do with the office.

After the Lanfang government applied to the Egyptian government for construction land, Yang Deshan circled a peninsula for Lanfang on the bank of the Nile River, right next to the Cairo Palace.

That's high enough!

Relatively speaking, the embassies and consulates of other countries, even the United Kingdom, the suzerainty of Egypt, have an area of only 20 acres of land, while Lan Fang's embassy and consulate land has an area of one square kilometer, and it is still next to the Cairo Palace, and the king of Egypt is a neighbor, which immediately made the group of melon-eating people who wanted to see Lan Fang's jokes dumbfounded.

The Lanfang government acted quickly and immediately announced the design plan for the embassy and consulate.

In the planning of the Lanfang government, the Lanfang Legation in Egypt will be a huge oriental complex, of which the main building is a three-storey main building with a height of 20 meters, next to two two-storey podiums with a height of 15 meters, and with the unique shape of the embassy and consulate staff dormitory, a huge area of gardens and green spaces, the Lanfang Embassy and Consulates in Egypt will become the most perfect square kilometer in Cairo.

Such a huge design will definitely cost more money, but the Lanfang government does not care, after announcing the design plan, Gu Weijun followed up with the announcement that the gardens and green spaces within the Lanfang embassy and consulate will be opened to the public, adding a good place for the people of Cairo to take a walk and relax after tea and dinner.

This decision was a bit unexpected.

According to custom, the territory of the embassy belongs to the "state within a state", and the Egyptian government has no jurisdiction over the Legation of Lanfang, as does the staff of the Legation and the people who enter the Legation. In other words, even if he is a key criminal wanted by the Egyptian government, as long as he enters the Lanfang Legation, the Egyptian government has no jurisdiction.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, no matter which country's consulate, the local government will set up another blockade outside the consulate to prevent certain people from illegally entering the "territory of other countries".

Now Lan Fang has announced the opening of the legation, which is tantamount to a problem for the Egyptian government.

If Lan Fang really opened the legation as announced, then it is a question of whether the Egyptian government wants to set up a blockade line. If not, then Egyptians can enter the precincts of the Legation at will, and the Egyptian government will lose its jurisdiction at that time. And if it is also unwise to set up a blockade line, it is a bit too much for the Lanfang government to spend a lot of money to build a free park for the citizens of Cairo, but the Cairo government does not allow the citizens of Cairo to enter.

Gu Weijun didn't care about this question, when asked this question at a press conference, Gu Weijun was very calm: "The Lanfang government has no intention of setting problems for the Cairo municipal government, although Lanfang and Egypt are only minister-level diplomatic relations, but there has always been no contradiction between Lanfang and Egypt, we have maintained friendly relations before, and will continue to maintain them in the future, as for those possible troubles, as long as the Lanfang government and the Egyptian government maintain effective communication, it is not a problem." ”

It seems that the relationship between the Lanfang government and the Egyptian government is really good.
