"Wang Fengshou said that the translation was not very accurate, but who still doesn't understand the meaning? It doesn't matter if we treat you to dinner, or not, Charles, but you must invite Feng Zibin!"
"Okay, it's a subtle diplomatic rhetoric. You captured the key point in just one sentence."
"But with Charles's temper, he wouldn't care so much. Why didn't you accept the invitation?"
"You are so smart, just tell me."
"The Shire is no longer the Shire, and the country of Jili is no longer the country of Jili, but the princess is still the same princess... It's actually not that complicated. It's just that the Shire doesn't want to go."
"If someone slipped out in the middle of the night, I believe Charles are still very interested. He always has a good harvest in the past few days."
This is the conversation between Manman and Hua Zhenxing on the way from the Fangguan Development Headquarters to the Embassy of the Kingdom of Kilili. The Fangguan Development Headquarters is not far from Chunhua and Beijing University. Today, Hua Zhenxing drove Manman in person.
Man also took it with him.
Manman is not a member of the Kyrgyzstan mission, nor has she been seconded there. She is still a student at Pingjing University, and she usually has coursework. But there are many official matters that she has to discuss with the director of the Chunrongdan Center, so she also went there today.
The embassy meets with relevant working groups.
Three days after the Kiribati delegation arrived in East China, a visiting delegation from the Roba League also came. If you look at the local media reports of the Roba League, it was called a "Climate and Environmental Rights Investigation Team", but the official media of the East Kingdom
In the report, it was called "Energy and Economic Issues Mission."
This may also be a translation problem.
The inspection team is semi-official. Although its main members have diplomatic status, the topics involved are consultative. They can be regarded as consultants in the economic negotiations between East China and the Romanian Alliance.
Kedia is also a member of this mission, and she also has the status of "honorary leader". When translated into Eastern Mandarin, it probably means this. If translated literally, the name is a bit difficult to pronounce.
Princess Ketiya is only 27 years old this year and has been appointed to many charitable and rights organizations, involving important economic issues of the Loba Alliance and the Eastern Kingdom. Of course, it is not something that a little royal princess like her can have the final say on.
But her status in the visiting group is very high, which is equivalent to auspiciousness in Dongguo dialect.
According to them, the main task of the visiting delegation is to inspect and evaluate Donggong’s climate and environmental policies and public sentiments, and to formulate a review report and submit it to the Roba Alliance Executive Committee. The implication is to evaluate
and scored.
According to Dongguo official reports, they came for a friendly visit to exchange views on issues of mutual concern, which was roughly equivalent to having a meal and chatting all day long.
Dining with Charles or Feng Zibin was not part of the official business plan of the delegation. It was a private invitation from Princess Ketia. In fact, last night, after everyone dispersed, Hua Zhenxing kept Charles alone, and there were more than two of them.
Chatted for a few words.
Hua Zhenxing: "Dafeng Harvest has explained to you the importance of diplomatic rhetoric. The person I really want to invite is Feng Zibin, but by sending you the invitation to Feng Zibin, I am deliberately trying to make a thorn in the side."
Charles is very proficient in Dongguan: "picking the ditch? I want to eat shit!"
Hua Zhenxing: "But I know you. As long as she dares to invite you, you dare to go. With your current status and being in Dongguo, are you still afraid of what tricks she will do? Why don't you go? I remember that you met her first
When she came back, she stared blankly for more than a month."
Charles: "I'm very busy. It's already past two o'clock in the middle of the night, and I'm still talking to you about work."
Hua Zhenxing: "To be honest, the goddess who was so unattainable back then finally has a chance today. How does it feel?"
Charles: "Do you really want to listen to the truth? I don't feel it anymore! If the harvest didn't mention this, I can't even remember this person now. If I were still the same groom, she wouldn't look at me at all.
The purpose of my efforts so far is not to have a meal with her, but to not be like that anymore and not have to be like that again."
Hua Zhenxing: "What kind?"
Ciel: "No longer look up to her, and don't care about me in her eyes."
Hua Zhenxing: "Are you complicating the problem? It's just a meal, or someone else is treating you. And you also made a mistake. I remember it very clearly. You told me many times, but you didn't
I led a horse for Ketia, how can I say that I am a groom?"
Charles sighed: "Wang Fengshou told me a long time ago. Before I came to the East Kingdom, I knew that Princess Kedia would also visit the East Kingdom with the delegation, and I guessed that she might ask me to meet.
Regardless of whether this kind of thing will happen or not, the Great Harvest has made plans anyway.
If the staff around Ketiya collect my personal information, they may find out that among the members of the original hunting team, someone recalled Ketiya's deeds in the Black Wasteland and claimed that he and I had led the princess.
Cross the horse.
Wang Fengshou told me that if I had the opportunity to meet Princess Ketiya, the princess might say that she still remembers me, and claimed that she was deeply impressed by me back then, and thanked me for holding her horse, like a true gentleman...
If she said this, it means that the people around her did their homework, but she herself did not remember it at all. But I am not interested in verifying this. If you have dinner with her, she may also mention this matter."
Charles had only met Ketiya once. When Princess Ketia went hunting in Fiso Port, she not only had her own security team, but also a group of local guides and bodyguards to provide services such as leading the way, setting up camp, and finding and gathering prey.
Work.
The local entourage was not allowed to carry guns or mobile phones, and was not allowed to take pictures on site. Charles also joined the team, walking in front of the team with a spear in his hand and wearing so-called traditional clothes.
When they were camping, the spears were taken away, and Princess Ketia, accompanied by her entourage, came among them, greeted them cordially, sat down next to Charles by the campfire, and asked him his name.
Charles was so nervous that he stuttered, but the princess smiled at him and said, "Thank you, my warrior!" Then she handed Charles food with her own hands, a piece of freshly roasted meat that the princess had cut off with a knife.
Charles was so excited that he almost had a seizure. After he came back, he was in a daze. He never talked about Princess Ketiya when he met anyone. He claimed that the princess had occupied all his heart. She was the most beautiful, the most charming, the most elegant, and the most temperamental.
, the most cultivated and charming girl.
Although the princess was wearing a mask, Charles could not see her face clearly; Charles was very dark, and Ketiya must not have been able to see what he looked like in the dim bonfire...
Charles's dazed state lasted for more than a month, and was later cured by Old Man Yang in the grocery store. (For details, see Chapter 149, The Gold Rush.)
This was the only time Charles had close contact with Ketia, but he never led Ketia's horse because he was not qualified to do such a "high-end" job at that time.
Although the best means of transportation in the wilderness north of Fiso Port is an off-road vehicle, and carrying horses is simply a burden, Kdia still took two competition-level horses and took several news photos of horseback riding. Now they are on the Internet
Can still be found.
The same information that can be found is the memory of a certain team member at that time. Charles, the current president of the Kingdom of Kilili, once led a horse to Her Royal Highness the Princess... Of course, this information is of little concern and requires a special search to find it.
Discover.
Hua Zhenxing said dumbly: "The harvest is too bad! If I see Ketiya, I hope she won't fall into the trap of the harvest, so that she can drink wine more comfortably.
In fact, even if you have led a horse for Ketia, it doesn’t matter. We can think about it from another perspective, she is an ordinary tourist, and you are an employee in the tourism service industry. Isn’t all this normal? "
Charles actually laughed: "I'm normal, of course I'm normal, but is she a normal tourist? Brother, you are too worried. I have nothing to worry about in the past, and she didn't offend me in the first place.
But she did something wrong today. If she really wanted to invite a head of state to dinner, she shouldn't have used that method. In her heart, she lacked respect for me and the country of Jili."
Hua Zhenxing: "Okay, I understand what you mean. What about Feng Zibin, should I accept the invitation?"
Ciel: "From what you say, I'm already planning to accept the invitation."
Hua Zhenxing: "I'm asking for your opinion."
Charles: "I believe in your ability. No matter what tricks she has, just get rid of her! She must have something to talk about, and it is related to the country of Jili, so thank you for your hard work and eat for the country!"
Then both of them laughed, and Hua Zhenxing stood up and said: "Since I am Feng Zibin, I have to bring bodyguards. If I need to go out for a fight, the official diplomats of Jili State are not suitable. Bai Shaoliu sent them to me.
Two people, I didn’t expect it to be really useful.”
Today, Hua Zhenxing talked about this topic with Manman while driving, and remembered the conversation last night. He only heard Manman say again: "So Charles won't go, but you have to go."
Hua Zhenxing: "I didn't go, it was Feng Zibin who went."
Manman: "Of course, I won't hire a grocery store boy. But I'm thinking about another thing. She has some relationship with Gumby Sting. Will she know that you are the chief instructor of Yangyuan Valley?
"
Hua Zhenxing: "She can invite Feng Zibin, but she can't invite Director Hua. For example, she can invite the winery owner Ishi Ye to a local business interview, but you ask her to invite the leader of the Kunlun League.
?”
"It's a bit wrong for you to talk like that!" A voice suddenly came from the back seat. Another driver might have been frightened, but Hua Zhenxing was still calm, at least on the surface, and his hand holding the steering wheel did not move at all.
shake.
This was Yang Tehong's voice. Following the voice, he raised his head and looked in the rearview mirror. He didn't know when his old man was sitting in the car.
"Why is this wrong?" The person asking the question was neither Hua Zhenxing nor Manman, because there was more than one old man in the back seat, and Ke Mengchao also got in the car at some point.
Hua Zhenxing said with some dissatisfaction: "This is the Fourth Ring Road. Can you two old people obey the traffic rules?"
Ke Mengchao: "Which traffic regulation did we violate?"
Manman and Hua Zhenxing already had a tacit understanding. They pointed forward and said, "Did you see the blue sign on the isolation zone? Four big words - no crossing!"
Yang Tehong and Ke Mengchao were both amused. Ke Fuzi smiled and turned his head, his expression became serious again: "Old Yang, what did Xiaohua say wrong?"
Yang Tehong: "What's the difference between Director Hua and Feng Zibin, Boss Shi and Leader Mei?"
Ke Mengchao: "You are just talking nonsense. Of course there are differences. Ignoring the substantive differences and only emphasizing the confusion under special concepts has always been a trick."
Yang Tehong: "So what if there is no distinction between education and discrimination?"
Ke Mengchao: "It is precisely because there are categories and there are objective differences in social roles that sages advocate teaching without category, but sages also say teaching in accordance with aptitude."
Yang Tehong: "After all, you are right?"
Ke Mengchao: "Anyway, you can't use a language to confuse right and wrong."
At this time, Manman interjected: "But Feng Zibin and Director Hua, Boss Shi and Leader Mei are essentially the same person!"
Yang Tehong nodded and said: "Manman is really smart!" Yan Bi stopped entangled with Ke Mengchao and said to the front row: "Xiaohua, what do you think?"
Hua Zhenxing thought for a moment before replying: "When I go to eat this meal, I am dealing with the world. Whether it is Princess Ketia or a gangster, they are all part of this world."
Ke Mengchao said with dissatisfaction: "You are so young, don't learn to be so tactful."
Old Man Yang glared at Mr. Ke again: "Since I asked this, which one of us do you want him to offend?"
…
A lot happened in the next few days. Zhang Buying disappeared during the educational cooperation negotiations. A delegation from Guiliguo visited Dongguo and achieved fruitful results in various fields of cooperation.
Charles accepted an honorary doctorate from Pingjing University and was invited to deliver a speech at Pingjing University. The title of his speech was still the famous "I am Charles", and the speech script was drafted by himself.
This speech is so famous in the Kingdom of Gilly. The content in Dongguo is only 90 seconds and 350 words. Almost all people in the Kingdom of Gil can memorize it. This is also their introductory textbook for Dongguo.
The theme of the speech at Pingjing University remained the same, but the content was greatly expanded. Charles spoke for a full forty-five minutes without writing.
After many "successful people" achieve great success, they often do one thing, which is to modify their experiences and try to beautify the past.
Charles is completely different. He has no taboo about his origin. He is not proud of his origin, but reminds everyone of the suffering he has suffered. What has this country, including himself, experienced?
After delivering this speech, Charles arranged a temporary itinerary. As the last stop of this trip, he personally went to Feishui University of Technology to visit his tutor, became a doctoral candidate, and by the way negotiated an agreement with Wucheng University.
Campus cooperation.
On the night when Charles visited his mentor in Feishui City, Mr. Feng Zibin, the richest man in the Kingdom of Gilly, a famous industrialist and philanthropist, accepted the invitation of Her Royal Highness Princess Ketia of the Kingdom of Belly to have dinner with him.
In Charles's words, this is eating for the country, and maybe drinking some wine for the country. The venue for the meal is the Hong Kong Jockey Club, located in the second ring road of Pingjing, where there is a lot of land, only a few meters away from the east side of the Palace Museum.
