Chapter 766: International Friends
"It's a bit surprising that my style has changed recently!" Wang Yongjiang said with a smile.
Zhang Tinglan waved the Tao Te Ching in his palm casually, and said with a smile: "Mr. Min Yuan, do people always have to improve, I now read Lao Tzu's five thousand words every day, and there is a book of Zizhi Tongjian on the bedside." ”
Wang Yongjiang also nodded: "When I was studying in my early years, I was convinced of these things, but after I was a little older, but when I came into contact with Western studies, I had a little doubt about these things, and even thought that these things of the ancestors were outdated. ”
"Mr. Min Yuan praised it falsely, but I think that what Lao Tzu said about the big country is also obscene, and it is the best in the world. It's just a little feeling. ”
"How?"
Zhang Tinglan smiled slightly: "Take the past Chinese dynasties as an example, our degree of control over the surrounding vassal states is actually far higher than the current colonies. We did not enforce the culture, and as a result, Korea, Annam, Ryukyu, etc., all had to avoid enshrined Confucian culture as a classic. We didn't go on a random expedition, but these countries all looked up to China, and the king even knelt down on us. Even though there is some chaos in the country, no matter who comes to power, they all ask for the consent of the Celestial Empire, and they all rely on China, but now the sun never sets on the empire to garrison troops everywhere, but it is full of fires and troubles. ”
"That's right." Wang Yongjiang said with a smile: "Humble words, if you see this, in fact, you can see the wisdom of ancient China, we rarely rely on strong force to kill indiscriminately like Westerners. Take, for example, the matter of tribute. If a small country sends something, we will have to send it back several times, which seems to be a bit of a loss and a bit of a fool. But don't forget, it is in this way that our currency is promoted, and these small countries have a little money, and they all have to buy Chinese tea, silk, porcelain. All of us have a trade surplus with our neighbors, and if we don't give a little more, these small countries will go bankrupt. ”
Wang Yongjiang said with a smile: "In my opinion, Westerners are shrewd in small things. Big things are confused, otherwise they wouldn't have broken out into a European war. And follow this trend. There may also be another war in the West. I don't know if this is a zuihou or not, but such belligerence, sooner or later it will consume their national strength, the West is only one or two hundred years ahead of shijie, and it still depends on industrialization, as long as other countries also learn this. Sooner or later, the West will fall. ”
"Mr. Min Yuan, are you so confident?"
"Some people are prescient, some people are aware of it, and some people are unaware. In fact, reunification began with China. After the beginning of industrialization, this general trend has been determined. ”
Zhang Tinglan is also full of confidence in China, after all, he has been in the world for thousands of years, and accidentally took a nap and let a group of night boys trot to the front. It's like a student who has been the first in the exam for several years in a row, suddenly falls ill and takes a leave of absence, and when he returns to school, he will definitely catch up after a period of hard study.
"Mr. Min Yuan, I am also full of confidence in the future, but at this time, the West still occupies an absolute advantage, and we have to dig out the corners of the West step by step."
"That's right, if you want to hold a forum in Asia, Africa and Latin America, it's quite good, there are already quite a few political parties and groups from small countries in China, and there are already more than 30 of them, and some are on the way."
When Zhang Tinglan heard this, her eyes suddenly widened, and she asked in surprise: "How can there be so many, I estimate that it would be good to have a dozen." ”
Wang Yongjiang hahadaxiao: "Humble words, you underestimate China's influence too much, take the surrounding vassal countries as an example, Annam, Burma, Nepal, Laos, Ryukyu, North Korea, Luzon and other places all have representatives here, such as India, Iran, Egypt, Turkey and other countries also have people, in addition to Africa, Cuba, Colombia, Peru and other countries in Latin America are also represented, and even Japan sent a delegation over. ”
Zhang Tinglan listened to Wang Yongjiang's introduction, and couldn't stop nodding, there are too many small countries in this world with great bitterness and hatred, and they have basically become colonies of the West, if there is a chance to seek independence, they will definitely spare no effort.
In recent years, China has risen from a public colony to a largely independent and unified country, which has had a fatal attraction for these regions. Just as after the Meiji Restoration, Japan became the look of East Asia, but China had more influence than Japan, and other countries were more inspired.
With the size of China, if Shijie convenes a beggar gang conference, after excluding the rich and handsome of the several great powers, the huge China will be the natural leader of the alliance and the gang leader, so all kinds of national independent organizations in these regions, representatives of the resistance movement, have come to China.
In fact, it can be regarded as a shijie trend, take the Soviets, who have not yet gotten rid of the civil war, they engaged in the Third International, and co-opted all kinds of liliang on shijie. This played a crucial role for the Soviet Union, at least for a long time, a large number of Shijie elites regarded the Soviet Union as the hope of mankind, and the colonies went to Moscow to learn from the experience, providing an excellent opportunity for the Soviet Union to expand its influence.
After World War II, the rapid formation of an Eastern camp also had an important relationship with this painstaking management. However, the Soviets also made a serious mistake, that is, the country's pursuit of control over these small countries led to rebellion, and the simple and crude style also ruined the good situation.
Zhang Tinglan is now proposing to hold this forum, in fact, he is robbing the Soviets of their jobs, and it is not only the Soviet Union but also China that can lead national independence on Shijie, and they don't have to go to Moscow, they can also come to Beijing!
Of course, if you want to become a strong and unified country, you will inevitably challenge the existing shijie pattern, no matter how you hide, China's size is there, which cannot be avoided. However, how to operate is very knowledgeable, and it would not be good if it provoked the Western powers to join forces to sanction it, as in the Soviet Union.
Therefore, when Zhang Tinglan manipulated the topic, he did not mention armed resistance at all, but took cooperation and respect as the theme of the forum.
On April 20, 26, the forum was officially opened, and at the opening ceremony, in front of hundreds of representatives from all over Shijie, Zhang Tinglan, as the initiator of the forum, first delivered a speech.
"Friends from all over Shijie, Chinese often say that there are friends from afar, and they are happy. I am very grateful to you for being able to come to China from thousands of miles to participate in this forum, as well as to the Chinese Government and people.
Weishenme wants to convene this forum, obviously hoping that some backward countries and regions can sit together and think of ways to solve the problems in front of them and seek common development. Shijie is constantly changing, and the old-style colonialism, which was mainly based on plunder, has become something that everyone spurns. I believe that neither the East, which believes in doing unto others, nor the West, which believes in the creation of all human beings, do unto others, do not want to see such a situation in which people enslave people.
China empathizes with the suffering of other countries, and until now, part of China's territory is still in the hands of the great powers, and it has not been completely resolved. Therefore, the pursuit of independence and the establishment of a nation-state is the aspiration of almost all people, and here I would like to make a few observations on the future international order.
Peace, openness, freedom, and equality, these four points should be the core spirit of the new shijie relationship. Peace means opposing war and violence, and all countries and regions should uphold the principle of national self-determination and establish independent countries on the premise of mutual respect.
In terms of economic development, all countries should maintain an open and free attitude, break the cages formed by colonialism, allow goods to circulate freely, and give full play to the advantages of various countries and regions, so as to jointly achieve prosperity and ......prosperity."
Zhang Tinglan's Asian, African, and Latin American forum actually attracted the attention of Shijie countries, and everyone thought that this was China's desire to declare war on colonialism, just like the Soviets did. All the countries of Europe and the United States have come together, sharpening their knives and wanting to attack China.
But after waiting for Zhang Tinglan's speech to circulate, everyone realized that it seemed to be a bit of a misjudgment, especially the Americans, after seeing this speech, they were simply concerned.
Isn't this exactly what President Wilson put forward at the Paris Peace Conference, breaking the cage of colonialism and promoting liberalism is exactly what the Americans want. You must know that now Britain, France and other countries have established one relatively closed trade system after another through colonial control, and the Americans have huge production capacity and cannot sell goods to the world.
If Zhang Tinglan's concept is followed, it is in the best interest of the Americans, and before an alliance has been formed between Europe and the United States, it will instantly collapse into invisibility, and even the mainstream media in the United States have reported and praised this idea of peaceful opening up. Even the U.S. government is ready to exert influence on various regions under this banner and establish a shijie order that is favorable to the United States.
Of course, any politics is dirty, Zhang Tinglan is high-sounding on the surface, but behind the scenes it is not at all, no one will believe that a few slogans can make Britain, France and other countries give up their colonial interests.
However, the Celestial Empire always has to pay attention to a little taste and subtlety in doing things. During the forum, the Chinese side arranged for representatives of various countries to visit factories, schools and docks to see China's achievements in industrial construction.
In particular, Zhang Tinglan also arranged for them to visit the paratrooper operation, which had just shown their skills in the southwest, and this time they were taking it out again, and also arranged for a transport plane to airdrop two small armored vehicles. When the armored car hit the ground, it quickly started moving, and the representatives of all colors of skin all applauded heartily.
Some of them have eyes wide, oh my God! China has such a strong force, it seems that it is completely possible to let the Chinese help build up the army, and then fight back to the country, several representatives have completely made up their minds! (To be continued......)
