Chapter 651: Asking Privately
Looking at the domestic political bigwigs in front of him who were frowning and contemplative, Zhu Dunru's heart moved, he thought of a possibility, and couldn't help but raise his head and glance at these bigwigs sitting there, wanting to speak, but he didn't know if he had the right to speak here as a specially invited attendee One by one Attending and speaking looked not much different, but as a politician, Zhu Dunru understood the difference after a little thought.
Therefore, Zhu Dunru suppressed his urge to speak, lowered his head again, and prepared that he would be an honest spectator, and to be able to attend this highest-level political meeting on the mainland as an observer, this is a small step for him personally, but for the mainland's political life, this is a huge leap, and he will surely shine in the annals of history just by virtue of this.
As a politician, you should be content to be able to do this. Although Zhu Dunru received the news that the future leader of Taiwan Island may have a place in the Politburo, for Zhu Dunru, who has been re-elected for one term, this position is probably not available to him; according to Taiwan's political conventions, two terms are an iron law, and Zhu Dunru does not want to challenge the bottom line of Taiwan, although theoretically he still has this opportunity after the reorganization of the Special Administrative Region, after all, he has reshuffled the cards one by one, and with Zhu Dunru's contribution to leading the peace talks and his current influence, it is understandable to be the first leader of the Special Administrative Region.
But from a political point of view, if Zhu Dunru really does this, it will inevitably leave people with criticism that he can't go away. Therefore, Zhu Dunru knew that after completing the major event of returning, it was his best choice to retreat bravely. Although the Politburo seat cannot be sitting, on the side of the government, a vice president of the country is almost a sure thing.
Thinking about it this way, Zhu Dunru's mind completely settled down, and the things he wanted to say were just as many opportunities to bring it up in private, and if he brought it up in private, if these domestic bigwigs felt that it was inappropriate, neither he nor the other party would feel embarrassed, anyway, they would just chat, and just laugh at the disagreement. There is much more room for manoeuvre than on this formal occasion.
Although the No. 1 leader keenly saw that Zhu Dunru wanted to speak and stopped, but he pretended to turn a blind eye, and in his heart he had a few points higher evaluation of Zhu Dunru, this is the performance of a mature politician, today let Zhu Dunru attend the meeting, although he had already solicited the opinions of most of the Politburo members in advance, and also agreed, after all, there is really nothing to be picky about in the performance of Taiwan Island in the war, and the elite F-16 fighters have been spelled out, what else do you have to say.
However, as the first leader to advocate the introduction of non-party figures into the Politburo after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the political pressure faced by the No. 1 leader is still very great, after all, this is an attempt at the core level, and the impact on the change of domestic political life may be very far-reaching. In this matter, the No. 1 leader needs to take a step by step after the breakthrough and see the reactions of all sides before deciding what to do next.
However, Zhu Dunru's desire to speak again stopped, so that the anxious No. 1 leader saw a glimmer of hope for solving the problem, and when the Politburo discussed for more than two hours without any results, the No. 1 leader decisively adjourned the meeting and waited for tomorrow's discussion, and the bigwigs could take advantage of this time to discuss some new ideas with the think tank behind them.
However, after the adjournment, the No. 1 leader invited Zhu Dunru to lunch, and this signal triggered some new speculation in the eyes of other Politburo bigwigs, but most people did not expect that this luncheon between the No. 1 leader and Zhu Dunru would lead to a new and huge change.
After inviting Zhu Dunru, the No. 1 leader was moved, and by the way, he also invited Vice Chairman Liu as an escort, and on the reform measure of bringing Taiwan leaders into the Politburo, Vice Chairman Liu clearly expressed his approval on behalf of the military, and in this private meeting, it was natural for the No. 1 leader to invite Vice Chairman Liu as an escort.
Of course, there is no need to make the lunch of three people so complicated, among the dozen or so home-cooked dishes, in addition to about half of the road goods that integrate the strengths of each family, each person has at least one special taste of private dishes, and the people around the No. 1 chief are naturally familiar with these things, so as soon as he sat down at the table, Vice Chairman Liu glanced at the dishes, and said with a smile, "Hehe, we are also seeking common ground while reserving differences at noon today, don't give me this boiled beef tenderloin" After speaking, Vice Chairman Liu turned to the waiter and said, "Pour me a glass of Moutai, It is rare to beat the autumn breeze of the general secretary once, and the 60-year-old Moutai is now drinking one less glass. Brother Dunru also has a drink? ”
"Lao Liu, you don't eat and drink less, you have to be honest when you speak in front of Brother Dunru, as if I owe you so much." The No. 1 chief said with a smile, "Brother Dunru, what to drink, I can't get used to the smell of Moutai, today there are three of us, I don't need to hold on, I can drink whatever I want." ”
During this time, the more he had contact with these high-level bigwigs on the mainland, the more he felt that they did not regard themselves as outsiders, "The general secretary and Vice Chairman Liu are too polite, and the amount of wine is limited, so let's have some red wine, and the white wine will be delicious, I am afraid that I will not be able to speak clearly after a while." ”
"Hehe, pony, pour us two glasses of red wine." The No. 1 leader laughed and said, "I'm going to ask Brother Dunru for advice in a moment." ”
After three rounds of drinking, Zhu Dunru took the initiative to say without waiting for the No. 1 chief to mention it again: "I have just listened to everyone's speeches, and Dunru has a shallow view on the problem of funds for the exploitation of undersea oil, which may be able to solve this problem. Zhu Dunru's words came out, the No. 1 chief's eyes flashed, obviously very surprised, although he had guessed that what Zhu Dunru wanted to say at the meeting was related to the financial problem, but the No. 1 chief did not expect that Zhu Dunru really had a solution.
"The construction of the mining platform requires such a huge amount of money, and it is of course difficult for the mainland to raise it on the one hand, but if the scope of this fund raising is expanded a little bit, and the entire Chinese community is used as the object of fundraising, then it is not surprising that this amount of funds is needed." Speaking of this, Zhu Dunru stared at the No. 1 leader with burning eyes, "General Secretary, if the country is willing to liberalize the policy to allow the Chinese circle of funds to enter this field, the PLA can ensure the safety of these offshore mining platforms, and Dunru guarantees to find at least one trillion or more funds within a month." ”
After Zhu Dunru said these words, his face began to be a little rosy, I don't know if it was the credit of the red wine, or if he was a little too excited in his heart.
