Chapter 129: Midnight Chat

What is a careerist?

It refers to those who are born in the lower strata of society and have a strong desire for power, and have great willpower because of their strong desires. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info for their own interests can be ruthless to others and even themselves, unscrupulous means, unlike people who really achieve great things, careerists tend to focus on getting ahead because their ambitions are too strong and ignore the cultivation of other personality aspects, and finally can not climb to the ideal height.

Looking at the entire history of the Federation, what leader has not been such a person?

Gu Youning killed a thousand by mistake and did not let go of Cao Cao, who coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes; In terms of proximity, the most famous one belongs to Adolf Hitler, who once dominated the European continent, as the third world head of the German Empire before the storm, who doesn't know who doesn't know?!

In a sense, ambition is an absolute factor that a leader must have, Yang Lei believes that ambition is not a derogatory term, and careerists are not as shameless as the outside world says, because people who can be called careerists have a clear mind and far-sightedness, they have received a good education, have firm beliefs and a strong foundation, are sociable, can bend and stretch, and keep forging ahead.

It's not terrible to have ambition, it's the most terrible thing to be unable to control your ambition! Most of the failed careerists in history are often too extreme, the sword is too extreme, resulting in the infamy of the ages, if they can control their inner desires in time, then they will not be blinded by superficial phenomena, and it is impossible to do things harmful to the world.

Lao Ji is in the woods, and his ambitions are thousands of miles.

Looking at Dongfang Shuo in front of him, Yang Lei felt that his old chief had really begun to slowly deviate from the track, and he didn't know whether to persuade or indulge him.

suddenly remembered that Bai Yanzhang had bluntly said that Dongfang Shuo was not a man who could control his ambitions, but he knew how to hide it very well.

I don't know why, thinking of this sentence, Yang Lei's eyes on Dongfang Shuo quietly changed, there was a hint of strangeness in it, in his opinion, people who know how to hide their desires are more terrifying than those who can control their desires, because you never know when his ambitions will be banished.

If you don't explode in silence, you perish in silence!

"In this world, most of the wars come from poverty, such as the South African region, which has been plagued by war all the year round, although it has the largest diamond placer mine in the entire federation, but the local natives are because they have not mastered the correct mining technology and do not know how to make money, of course, they will be looked upon by other countries, just imagine, if one day they can exchange those black diamonds with an average price of 30,000 federal guilders per carat for advanced weapons, who will dare to compete with them?"

Dongfang Shuo's words made Yang Lei speechless, indeed, the world's first discovery of primary diamond deposits was in South Africa, and since the storm, many world-famous diamonds have been produced there, but as the world's most important diamond producing area, the vast majority of developers there are from foreign empires, if it were not for the low cost of local labor, those black-hearted developers would not even let the locals be responsible for the excavation work.

"Another example, the Boer War that broke out twice in a row......" Dongfang Shuoshuang turned his head behind him and said: "All of these are caused by poverty, so poverty is the root cause of the outbreak of war, and there is no war in the world that happens for no reason!" ”

Yang Lei nodded, he had seen this famous war in the history textbooks of the military academy, the outbreak of the Boer War was a very early storm period ago, it was a major war caused by the descendants of immigrants from the English Empire for the territory and resources of South Africa, and the textbooks are also called the South African War, the Boer War or the Second Boer War.

To a large extent, the Anglo-Boer War was a major historical sign of the advent of the imperialist era, in which the great powers first demanded the repartition of the divided colonies, and then engaged in frenzied competition by means of war.

In fact, there were countless examples like the Boer War in that era, and they all had one thing in common, nothing more than because they were jealous of the rich resources of other countries, just like Dongfang Shuo said, in the final analysis, it was still two words, poverty!

Looking at Dongfang Shuo's back standing in the wind, under the background of the night, Yang Lei seemed to see the former stepping on the ladder of ambition composed of thousands of skulls.

"What's wrong with the Speaker tonight?" Yang Lei said in his heart.

In Yang Lei's impression, in the past few years that he and Dongfang Shuo have known each other, all the conversations add up to less than this night, and Yang Lei is also very puzzled, why does the former tell him so much for no reason?

"It's getting late, rest early." Turning around, Dongfang Shuo said with a smile, as if he suddenly thought of something, and asked again: "By the way, how is the matter of forming the Pacific Death Squad?" ”

"Everything is going well, and the speaker can rest assured." Yang Lei said humbly, thinking secretly, strange, I haven't heard anything about the Pacific Death Squad all this time, why are you asking now?

"Regarding the formation of the Pacific Death Squad, we must do a good job." Dongfang Shuo said: "If nothing else, soon our Huaxia country's death squad will also come in handy, and now each empire is forming its own death squad, which invisibly also demonstrates the national strength of a country, understand?" ”

"Does the Speaker mean that the American Empire has chosen to send us a request for support?" Yang Lei asked incredulously.

With a sneer, the corners of Dongfang Shuo's mouth raised lightly, and said: "The current United States is like a lonely boat, which may go with the flow at any time...... Haha, that guy from Wren would never have imagined that at the last moment of his administration, he would encounter such a rare thing in a hundred years. ”

As we all know, due to the advanced age of General Wren, the first speaker of the United States of Representatives, this year is already his last year in office, that is to say, in another year, the former will be able to retire peacefully and enjoy leisure, but now, such a big thing has happened in the American Empire, for a while, even those politicians who actively compete for the future speaker of the House on weekdays have died down, obviously, no one wants to take over such a mess.

And for Wren, it is already the best result not to be smeared with a stain on his life's political achievements.

Dongfang Shuo's departing back was stretched slender by the waning moon in the sky, reflected on the concrete floor, unintentionally, he slowed down, glanced at Yang Lei, who had been staring at him behind him, with his residual vision, the corners of his eyes suddenly trembled, and soon returned to calm, and slowly walked away.

Yang Lei, who was standing alone on the training ground, looked at the distant back, looking extremely melancholy.

"Why him?" (To be continued.) )
