Chapter 230: The Americans are in a hurry
Li Quan said to Director Zhou: "I hope that, except for some key parts that are inconvenient to leak, the country can selectively disclose the news to the outside world about these things I give you." I also allow the state to use these as bargaining chips in exchange for significant benefits. What am I referring to, I think Director Zhou is a person who understands. ”
Director Zhou is an old man, and he smiled and said, "It's a matter of the United States." Xiao Li, don't worry! I know what to do. ”
"Then you're up for you." Li Quan said with a smile.
Director Zhou sighed secretly, Li Quan's intentions are deep, he can see that Li Quan is not narrow-minded, and it can be seen from the fact that he can reconcile unconditionally. This time, Li Quan ascended to the top and held a world summit, and it is hard to imagine that this is the handiwork of a young man who is not much older than his granddaughter.
The United States didn't buy it, and Director Zhou already knew. Now it seems that Li Quan has long known in his heart, and he secretly admires Li Quan's resourcefulness.
When I thought of myself, I was even thinking that my granddaughter was about the same age as Li Quan, five or six years younger than Li Quan, and I heard that Li Quan had been single since he came abroad, maybe he could ......
But when he saw Lin reading quietly in the corner, he immediately dispelled this idea. His beautiful granddaughter has always been his proud capital, but it is less than a tenth of the others.
Director Zhou couldn't help but speculate again, what would be the relationship between this girl and Li Quan in front of him? Boyfriend and girlfriend? Maybe. Don't look at Director Zhou's age, everyone has a heart to gossip.
"Okay, Xiao Li, I won't bother much. I know that you are a busy person, and you can take time out of your busy schedule to see me and bring me back so many good things, Uncle Zhou owes you a favor. If you have time to come to Beijing, I will definitely be the east, please eat your aunt's private food! ”
Although Director Zhou's trip did not achieve its goal, it was very rewarding and in a good mood. Even the title is familiar with Li Quan.
"Definitely! I send you. Li Quan was neither humble nor arrogant, with a smile on his face, and sent Director Zhou out of the door.
Director Zhou was extremely efficient, and not long after Li Quan left, the news was released. The news that the Chinese representative had met with Li Quan in private and that he had returned home with a full load spread far and wide, and the United States finally could not sit still.
First, there were alien civilization technology tree materials and ironwood materials in front, and now there are several good goods deliberately released by Director Zhou, and when these pieces of information were placed in front of the US high-level, they immediately attracted a thunderous roar from Mr. President.
"Jorkins, don't you keep saying that you are sure that Li Quan can't have a lot of resources, and there is something wrong with your intelligence! Li Quan not only has important resources that we don't have, but also gives these things to China! Damn, I almost forgot that Li Quan is also a Chinese! Trump launched a rush to slam the president's desk, and the handful of dull hairs on his head were windless, proclaiming his anger: "You didn't keep assuring me that we would not lose anything if we did not send representatives to the summit, now, how can you explain it!" ”
It was a urbane consultant who was questioned. White House advisers have always been a high-risk profession, and the so-called companion of the king and the tiger, and the person who advises the president often has only one end in the end, that is, to bear the blame for the president's bad ideas. Mr. Joggins actually wants to complain in his heart, this is obviously your own nod and agree with the idea, why do you complain to me now, obviously you want to ensure that the position of the United States is not shaken, urge allies and us not to go to the summit, now the problem has arisen, the countries participating in the summit not only got an important information, but also obtained a new type of material, and now let the Chinese take the lead, aren't these all orders signed by the president?
But when I think so, it's hard to say. Adviser Joakins lowered his eyebrows and continued to bear Trump's close spit, staring at the stupid hair on Trump's head, and suddenly found that this image was really funny.
After a tantrum throw, Trump finally calmed down. Now, it is difficult to collect the water, and the things that Li Quan gave to China make him extremely red-eyed. According to Chinese intelligence, some of these technologies have even surpassed those existing in the United States.
"Damn it, alien technology, why did it end up in that kid's hands? Why not in the hands of us Americans? Trump loosened his tie angrily, glanced at Joggins adviser with unkind eyes, and asked Jorkins, "What do you think?" ”
"Mr. President, you have seen the plant material before. The material is so easy to use that once countries are successful in its use, America's industrial advantage will no longer exist. Jorkins replied, "I heard that the Heart of the Forest Company has given away several potions to China this time. We are still investigating the effects of the specific agents. I've heard that the data is very staggering. Once the intelligence is true, we will maintain an advantage in the field of chemistry for decades, and we will also be surpassed by the Chinese. At that time, I am afraid that the problem will not be so simple. We must continue to contain the pace of development of this imaginary enemy on all fronts, you know ......"
"What China gets, we also have to share!" Trump has always followed the principle of America First, and now that China has taken the lead, how can he endure it. However, the thought of being related to the Heart of the Forest Company made him feel a headache. The frequent actions on his side in private, his allies are aware of it, and they are all watching his jokes. The United States has not been able to take a private company located in Africa every time, and even the delta sent out has been stripped naked and thrown into the desert. If it weren't for the fact that it would be even more embarrassing to avoid making things bigger, he even wanted to send a plane over at one point.
Trump is at a loss. He wanted to get in touch with Li Quan, but the relationship between the two sides had always been strained. There have been many confrontations between the two sides, all of which have been carried out in secret. Now I can't pull the face to talk about it.
"I'll leave this matter to you. For the sake of the future of this free country, I think you know what to do. Trump didn't hesitate to throw the problem to his advisers.
Jorkins smiled bitterly inwardly, he had expected it. "I'll talk to them in person." What could he do, he had to agree to come down.
Africa, Burundi.
"Oh? The United States sent a representative and offered to meet me? Li Quan sat behind his desk, smiling and listening to Pete's report. The Americans finally couldn't help it, and this same hook-and-bait strategy was a complete one. As for how to entertain the American representatives, he also knew what to expect.
"Boss, how do you reply to them?" Pete asked.
"Of course I do, that's exactly what I want." Li Quan said with a smile, "To be honest, if I had been thinking before, I would have been childish for a few days at this time." You know, I don't think the Americans like it. ”
"The arrogance of the Americans is precipitated by time." Pete said thoughtfully. He is not an American, but a British. Although Britain wears the same pants as the United States politically, to the ordinary British people, the United States is more like a barbaric relative, far from the gentlemanly demeanor of classical Britain. Especially the new president.
"Arrange to meet tomorrow. After dealing with this, I'm going to disappear for a few days, and I still have some things to do. Li Quan commanded.
"Okay, boss." Pete didn't ask anything, as long as it was Li Quan's order, he copied it.
The next day, Jorkins, as the representative of the United States, appeared in Li Quan's office. This office had only received Director Zhou a week ago. Unlike last time, there was no tea this time, but Jorkins walked in with a bottle of beautifully packaged wine in his hand, and it seemed that he had done his homework and was well versed in apologies in Chinese culture.
"Dear Lee! We've finally met, and we've been friends for a long time. Jorkins' opening remarks said that he stepped forward and gave Li Quan a big hug.
God has been a friend for a long time, I don't know you. Li Quan secretly scolded himself, and said with a peaceful smile on his face: "Welcome to Burundi, Mr. Jorkins. ”
"Lo and behold, I brought a bottle of Lafite 1982 as a gift for our first meeting!" Jorkins brought the bottle and gestured, "Is there a glass?" How about we have a chat while tasting this rare wine? ”
Li Quan smiled and brought two goblets and a wine opener. Jorkins expertly uncorked the bottle with the wine opener, and poured a glass of red wine for each of them, and a pure wine aroma wafted into the air.
"Here, a toast to our friendship." Jorkins said, holding up his glass.
"Cheers to world peace." Li Quan raised his glass and said.
Taking a sip of wine in his mouth, Li Quan tasted it for a while, and felt that the so-called 82-year-old Lafite was nothing more than that, and it was not as good as his Red Tauroman.
"I didn't expect you to speak English so well, I can't hear anything from your words." Jorkins cherished the wine in his glass, a look of intoxication as if he were happy. Lafite in '82 is not something you can drink in the usual way, this is paid for by the White House. He told Li Quan: "I have met some Chinese, and their English has a strong Chinese accent. But I heard that Mr. Li also grew up in China? ”
"That's right." Li Quan replied noncommittally. Good English? What doesn't exist, it's all an illusion. Youlin helped him translate and let him speak bird language. "Come and taste my wine." He casually pulled out a bottle of Red Bull Man from behind him. To drink wine is to drink the best wine, and compared to the Red Bull Man, this so-called world famous wine is nothing more than that.
Jorkins was amazed by Li Quan's miraculous "conjure" of wine, but he didn't think anything else, and his attention was quickly attracted by a strange aroma of wine.
"Oh, what brand of wine is this? This taste, my god ......" Jorkins took a cup and placed it to his nostrils, his eyes immediately widening in disbelief. Before he could take a sip of wine, the person seemed to be drunk, and his white skin was flushed.
The wine of the Red Tauraur is indeed very strong, after all, it is an otherworldly grape variety, and the inhabitants of Azeroth are generally in good health, and the people of the earth will not be comfortable drinking it at first, but good wine is good wine, which is the same in every plane.
After only one sip, Jorkins was a little distracted. He shouted "God" in his mouth, and the expression on his face was quite exaggerated. He never imagined that there would be such a rich, mellow wine in the world, compared to what he had drunk before.
"This is our in-house made wine. The grapes we use are grown ourselves. In the field of biotechnology, Heart of the Forest stands at a height that no one believes even if I am humble. ”
Seeing Jorkins' inquiring eyes, Li Quan added: "Yes, that's right, this comes from alien technology." ”
"God......" Jorkins admired for a moment, then came back to his senses and remembered that he hadn't really come to drink. The shock brought to him by this wine was far less than the technique that Li Quan said. Think about it, is it very difficult to use these technologies mastered by Heart of the Forest to subvert the world pattern? So far, the Heart of the Forest Company is still very restrained, which has to be said to be their luck in the United States. At least, this is not a tyrant in front of him.
The foreplay was almost over, and the two sides began to formally chat about topics of concern to both parties.
Jorkins avoided talking about the many back-to-back encounters between the two sides throughout, as if that didn't exist. Li Quan knows very well that Americans are very thick-skinned, but this level of thickness is something he has only seen in his life. Thinking about it, for the sake of the so-called face of the United States, this White House adviser is also struggling with not having many cards to play. Now it's not that Li Quan has asked for anyone, but they have come to the door by themselves.
Jorkins was clearly prepared. Although there were very few cards to play, it still allowed him to seize a chance. He brought up to Li Quan about two recent antitrust investigations by the U.S. Department of Justice against Forest Heart.
"I would like to sincerely apologize to Mr. Lee, and I can assure you that this is definitely a personal act. That guy is damned, he's made an unfair ruling against your company for his personal gain, in concert with a part of us and federal law, in defiance of scum. We have launched an investigation into the UN Under-Secretary-General for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs and indicted him for misuse of public resources, and there is substantial evidence that he faces at least 10 years in prison. I hope this will bring about a soothing misunderstanding between us. ”
From Joggins's mouth, Li Quan learned the specific causes and consequences of the incident, and finally figured out who the other party was. A small Under-Secretary-General of the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs has caused him so much trouble, and his bureaucratic understanding has inevitably increased his bureaucratic awareness.
Even if the Americans don't intervene in this matter, he will find an opportunity to solve this problem once and for all. He doesn't allow marmots to burrow in his backyard, the enemies he has to face come from his head, and he doesn't want his own people to make trouble for him.
With the pride of the Americans, being able to make such a statement can already be regarded as a signal, and goodwill cannot be said, at least it can be regarded as a compromise. At least from now on, there should be fewer small actions by the United States secretly targeting the heart of the forest, and the Sahara Desert will not need to have US military search and rescue teams as often.
Since this is the case, Li Quan decided to accept it when he saw it. It is irrational to eat fat in one go. The status of the United States as the world's police will need time to slowly corrode like running water. To say the least, there are still 50 years, which is enough.
