Chapter 430: Responsibilities of the Military Attaché
Yu Lian was very satisfied with this very healing story, so he looked at Mr. Qi expectantly.
However, unfortunately, Mr. Qi Bingwen showed a face as if he had been constipated for ten years: "Did the story you told...actually happen?"
Well, it’s different from what I expected! Yu Lian thought, but said: "Similar stories actually exist in the areas ruled by the empire. Of course, after Emperor Yiwenya ascended the throne, the empire’s ruling method was relatively different.
It is said that the oppression of foreigners has become more relaxed, and the oppression of foreigners will also start to pay attention to food and appearance. After her, the emperors of the Dawn Dynasty also showed that their imperial capitals were open to all rivers and focused on talents, so there were already non-Tiruiro people born.
Hereditary nobles, and even prime ministers. However, this still cannot change the nature of the empire as a tyrant who is anti-intelligent life."
“So, you’re sort of merging a lot of things together?”
Yu Lian nodded and added: "But there is a real prototype story about the ancient Meiya girl and the little starfish family."
“Reflect reality!” Mr. Qi pressed his temple slightly.
“So, what do you think?”
"It's a little more confessional. Without the metaphorical effect, it wouldn't be called a script. It would be better to just write a statement. Moreover, the tragedy has a deliberate flavor and lacks a sense of fate caused by the environment." Mr. Writer began to act as a professional.
He made a judgment: "Advanced tragedy can convey a feeling of despair. This despair comes from the environment, but it is caused by the empire. This is what you want the audience to see, right?
"
He is indeed a cultural leader who dominates the world in this era! This kind of penetrating insight is not something that ordinary people can feel.
“To be precise, it’s not just the Empire, but also the Alliance, and this world where people cannibalize people. Everything that this galactic society has established and taken for granted has caused such a tragedy.” Yu Lian decided to tell the truth.
This time, Mr. Qi did not answer immediately. He lit a cigarette and thought in silence for nearly five minutes. Suddenly he showed a difficult smile: "This topic is really too big! I can't grasp that direction now...
…”
Although his smile was a little difficult, his eyes were still full of vitality, as if he was a young man who was preparing to embark on a journey to defeat the devil: "Thank you, I now seem to understand that I should go
Write something."
“Is there a new theme?”
Yu Lian was very pleased. He felt that even if Mr. Jean had the intention to fight with his pen again, his trip to the empire would not be in vain.
“I have said that this subject is too big and needs more investigation.” Mr. Qi said with a smile.
“So, can this script be done?”
"This is not a script, you just told a very healing story!" Mr. Qi said angrily: "But... it's just a stage play anyway, it doesn't take much work. Give me a week, and I will do it in my free time.
Get it out."
“But, those feelings of fate, despair, etc. you mentioned..."
"So it needs to be revised! And the story you gave is too full of information. It would be a pity to make it into just one scene. Of course, the rest is my job. Hey, now that I think about it, you really are
Are you thinking about this?"
"Aren't you afraid of the Cultural Affairs Bureau and the secret police?" Yu Lian said with a smile: "If I were the empire, not to mention not allowing the show to be released, or banning actors and directors, I'm afraid the secret police would be dispatched directly to arrest all the creators.
Humanity is destroyed."
"That's why I have to revise it! If I didn't even have the means to jump left and right on the cordon, the people who gave me the Galaxy Award back then must have been cowardly! In the past few years, they have been crying and begging me to come.
Those guys who teach a course at the Imperial University are even more cowardly! It just so happens that the little guy from the Sikri Theater Company is always crying and begging me to write a script for him. Isn't it a coincidence?
"Mr. Qi burst out laughing.
“The little guy from Sikri Theater Company” should be the deputy leader of this cultural exchange group, right?
To be honest, although that guy was greasy and tight-lipped, considering that he had always been kind and amiable in front of him, and he was always trying to pimp him out, Yu Lian still had a good impression of him.
Of course, Yu Lian still hasn’t remembered the name of the deputy captain. But this does not delay him from feeling injustice for that good man.
"He is so pitiful. Will he be restricted from entering the country by the empire in the future?"
“I gave you the opportunity to go down in history, so be grateful.” Mr. Qi snorted coldly.
Very good, it’s great to be so energetic! After you write one or two scripts to warm up and clear your mind, I can take the revised "Book of the Original" and ask you to polish it.
"In addition, this report of yours..." Mr. Ambassador picked up the "Investigation Report on the Workers' Movement at Red Maple Factory" again. He probably wanted to ask a few more questions, but a communication prompt sounded on the table. He turned the knob, but
It was his secretary's voice.
“Your Excellency, General Lal still likes to wait in the small reception room next door.”
“He didn’t leave?”
“...I’ve been waiting all this time, and I’ve drank seven cups of coffee. Oh, and I’ve also eaten three pieces of cream cake.” There seemed to be a smile in the secretary’s voice.
Major General Watt Rall is the chief military attaché, and it is understandable that he would like to talk to Yu Lian, the newly appointed assistant military attache, to hand over the work. However, after all, he is also the assistant to the Ambassador, and it is not easy to come directly to urge him, so he can only
Been waiting for.
Of course, the general must have a good relationship with the ambassador's secretary, and there may even be some tacit understanding in private. Otherwise, the secretary can ignore it completely, let alone call to remind him.
"...Well, it does take up too much of your time today. Let's wait until we have some free time and then talk all night long." Mr. Qi obviously didn't enjoy himself, but no matter how willful he is, he can't really turn into a naughty child.
Let Yu Lian go.
However, when Yu Lian opened the door and was about to leave, he heard the other party say again: "If this article can really help me answer my questions, I will arrange for it to be published in the most influential academic journal."
Yu Lian paused for a moment, turned around and saluted the old gentleman.
Mr. Qi Bingwen really gave Yu Lian a big surprise. Probably because of the historical image. In Yu Lian's imagination, this gentleman should be an arrogant, noble, but also full of strong and passionate scribe.
There is a high probability that he is Dr. Qu who was close to the period of "The Water in the Canglang is Clear". However, when he actually saw the real person, he suddenly discovered that even the great writer had a worldly side.
He knows how to play side-kicks, he can jump left and right on the edge of the line, he can use his reputation and connections to achieve his goals, and looking at this, he may have a dramatic side.
Sure enough, there will always be some discrepancies between the historical image and the real image.
However, so what? It’s better to be more secular! Only when you are secular can you really become an article by laughing and scolding!
【Reading Welfare】Follow the public.. account【Book Friends Base Camp】, read books every day and get cash/points!
Of course, his side as a writer, artist, and even sociologist is, after all, greater than his side as a diplomat. In other words, Mr. Qi has never been a professional diplomat, so there must be times when he overturns.
Therefore, the team of the Community Embassy in the Empire must be a capable team. In a sense, they are more like Mr. Qi’s nannies than diplomats.
The most capable bureaucrats are those who can act as "nannies" for others!
Yu Lian really realized this when he met with Major General Walter Rall, the chief foreign military attache.
The Major General, who looked to be several years older than Mr. Ambassador, but weighed at least twice as much as Mr. Ambassador, put his hands directly on Yu Lian's shoulders when he came up, and then put a white and round face on his face.
The face immediately occupied most of the sight of the round face.
The other party said sincerely: "Listen up, Lieutenant Colonel Yu Lian, the first priority of our embassy is that peace is a blessing!"
He looks like a affable and wealthy shopkeeper, but he is wearing a major general uniform and is still the chief military attaché. Wouldn't this make the empire look down upon the community?
Or, is this the strategy of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of our country to deceive the enemy? Do the trash in the Foreign Affairs Committee who can only do translation and repetition have such a mentality? How terrifying!
"Don't think about it. Strategic deception, diplomatic fraud, etc. This kind of technology is too advanced! We are not good at it." Major General Lal said seriously.
Are all of you able to read minds?
“I can’t read minds! And even among you psychics, the ones who can read minds are all big guys, right?”
Yu Lian nodded. Moreover, the more determined the opponent is, the difficulty of mind reading will increase geometrically.
"It's just, hey... In fact, everyone who met me for the first time had the same reaction as you. Mr. Ambassador even asked directly." Major General Lal replied. He didn't feel offended at all, and he was satisfied.
His face is full of honest smiles,
"Of course, I have grown up like this after all, and it is reasonable for others to have such doubts. However, isn't this pretty good? I was originally doing military theory research in the rear, and then I changed careers and started studying intelligence.
Theory, and then went to the military academy to work as an international relations teacher for several years, and ended up becoming a diplomat in a muddle-headed way. This, probably because the people above felt that Mr.... er, that is, the Ambassador's temperament was occasionally a bit, uh,
It’s a bit witty, but also a bit tough, so it needs a simple and honest person like me to buffer it? It must be so!”
The other party's appearance was so simple and strong, and it really didn't look like he was talking nonsense at all. Yu Lian said that he believed it, so he asked again: "Understood, our main job is to give advice to people in formal diplomatic situations.
It’s on the imperial side, right?”
"As expected of a man from the moon, a genius! He is enlightened!" The general gave Yu Lian a thumbs up. He was really complimenting him sincerely, and there was absolutely no sarcastic or sarcastic meaning. Yu Lian couldn't see it anyway.
from.
"Lieutenant Colonel, look, you are a war genius, a young hero... Hey, when the battle report of the Far Coast Nebula reached our embassy, we had a banquet to celebrate. I was even drunk! Aha
Haha, in the past ten years, our community has not had such a proud time."
But. Yu Lian said in his heart.
"However, after the celebration, our lives still have to go on. Your Excellency particularly appreciates you, and all of us admire you, um, even worship you. But, here, you really must restrain your heroism
You must not irritate the Ambassador. I know this does wrong you. But this is all for our established diplomatic strategy, and of course your own personal safety. Do you understand?" General Lal said with a close call.
Yu said in a pleading tone, looking directly at Yu Lian with keen eyes.
To be honest, the Major General, an ordinary person, can look at Yu Lian, a man with four rings, for so long. He is at least a person with a very strong will, which does not fit with his fat appearance.
Yu Lian now feels that the Community Embassy in the Empire is really interesting, and all places are interesting, so he smiled and said: "So, Your Excellency, what is your job as an assistant to the military attaché?"
Major General Lal glanced at Yu Lian and showed a more honest smile: "So, Lieutenant Colonel Yu Lian, what is the job of a military attache stationed abroad?"
The job of a military attache stationed abroad is, of course, to provide professional military advice to diplomatic ambassadors who are mostly civilian officials or even celebrities, to assist embassy members in maintaining diplomatic ties with their host countries, and to handle international military exchange activities.
and undertake legal military assistance, training and trade relations.
Of course, all the above work is actually handled through the formal diplomatic department, and the military attache department assists.
However, there is another very important task, which is of course to collect local military intelligence by "reasonable and legal" means... Remember, it must be "reasonable and legal"!
To put it bluntly, the military attache stationed in an embassy is usually a spy chief. As a military attache, if there are not one or two squads of secret police behind you when you go out every day, you must be derelict in your duty.
“There is no last point!” His Majesty the Major General said very seriously.
"No?"
"Absolutely not! We are all serious diplomats. Who among the serious diplomats would become spies? Diplomats who act as spies have no souls! In short, we have only one job, which is for everyone at the embassy, especially those at the embassy.
Mr. Ambassador is just providing military advice. That's all. As for the rest~~~~" He lengthened his voice.
“The rest~~~~” Yu Lian also lengthened his voice.
"The rest are everyone's private activities, and the embassy has nothing to do with it. We have to live in the imperial capital for several years, and it is reasonable to have some personal friends. We are all soldiers, and we occasionally go to participate in some military exchange activities or hug each other.
It is very reasonable to observe the Hand of Glory Shipyard with a sense of piety like a pilgrimage." The face of the chubby Lieutenant General Lal was filled with a smile like Santa Claus.
