Reborn superpower

() After Defuna arrived in China, she used her spare time to read a large number of modern Chinese literature. Therefore, it was Zao Wou-ki's writing that attracted her first in the two articles of "Fengshan". He felt that Zao Wou-ki's writing was no longer Lost to some great writers in China, moreover, Zao Wou-ki's articles still have a confident and refreshing charm, which can only emerge in the works of those countries or writers who are on the rise.

Originally, after the first article appeared, Devna couldn't put it down, and wanted to translate it into English and send it back to the United States for publication; but she put it aside temporarily because she was busy.To Devna's surprise, there is a second article, and the second article "Fengshan Bamboo Weaving, Dance on Fingers" not only has a particularly attractive title, but also the article itself is better than the previous one. .

After reading this article about bamboo weaving in one sitting, Devna came up with a plan.

Staff stationed abroad, because they represent the image of a country, are very strict in their daily work and life, even if they have to attend some social activities, they will be cautious.In addition, the grassroots society in China at that time treated foreigners like pets, which made Devna's life in Pingyuan City quite cramped, and the Chinese government did not advocate foreign diplomats stationed in China in their own land for various reasons. Running around.

Devna wants to use two articles as a guide to intervene in Chinese civil society.So she told her husband Peter what she thought.

As a consul, Pete naturally supported Devna's idea, but he put forward a better suggestion, that is, to apply to China on the grounds that the United States wants to import Fengshan wood carvings and bamboo weaving, hoping to visit Fengshan for inspection.Pete's years in Donghai City were not in vain. He was well aware of the thirst for foreign exchange, especially rice, in this ancient and newly opened country.If the product is "imported" as an excuse, it is almost impossible for Huaxia to refuse.

With the support of the consul and her husband, Devna took action.At this time, Devna has been promoted to the first-class secretary, and she has her own staff to plan for her.And calling the newspaper office to ask whether the report is true is the masterpiece of his subordinates.If those two articles are only literary creations, and those handicrafts are just things of the past, and cannot be produced and produced now, as the rice consulate, wouldn't it be laughed at by the Chinese?

On the 7th day after the publication of the second article, that is, before and after the system changed the mission rules, the US Consulate in Pingyuan City sent an official letter to the Foreign Affairs Office of the People’s Government of Xichuan Province: Shanxiang has the production capacity of woodcarving and bamboo weaving handicrafts. The consulate hopes to send personnel to investigate. Please your office to be responsible for the connection and investigation related matters. If it is confirmed that the content of the report in the "Xichuan Daily" of your province is consistent, the consulate will be very happy to facilitate Xichuan The province exports this outstanding folk handicraft to rice."

The official documents from the United States are naturally written in English, but the Foreign Affairs Office does not lack English translations. Therefore, the "Chinese" version of this official document was placed on the desk of Mo Kai, the director of the Provincial Foreign Affairs Office, half an hour later.

"Nimei, what's the situation?" After seeing the document, Director Mo almost swears, but he immediately realized that this matter is of great significance. Since the Mi Consulate, this is the first time for them Volunteering to be interested in a certain product of Huaxia.If it can be done, Mo Kai's own contribution will be indispensable.

Therefore, Mo Kai immediately asked the office to find the two articles involved in the official letter. After reading it, he thought it was very good, and prepared to sign the words "Please read the instructions from Governor Liao" according to the normal document handling mode. However, Mo Kai wrote the text Finally, he didn't hand it over to his subordinates, but went directly to the governor's office by car.

Diplomacy is no small matter, so at the local level, the top leaders of the government are responsible for making decisions on such matters (don't complain, the stars didn't check).

Although Liao Kang's thinking was a little rigid, he also knew that this matter was very important, so the two drove to Liu Boyi, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee.Liu Boyi's understanding of China's central yangjing was certainly not comparable to that of Liao Kang and Mo Kai. He immediately gave instructions: immediately contact the US Consulate in Pingyuan, agree and work hard to facilitate this investigation.

In the morning of the next day, a Volga from the Foreign Affairs Office of Xichuan Province drove to the gate of the Mi Consulate. Mo Kai and his entourage began to formally communicate with the Pitts about investigation matters.

The Pitts were also very surprised. When did Huaxia officials handle affairs at such a fast speed that a decision could be made in one working day?However, the consulate also seriously discussed matters related to the investigation with Mo Kai and his party.

In fact, the real purpose of the Pete couple is to go to Zizhou and Fengshan to understand the real situation of Xichuan.Of course, if the wood carving and bamboo weaving were really good, they would naturally be willing to facilitate a business transaction between Mihua.

Therefore, the Pitts only put forward two requests: first, to visit the production site of handicrafts in related villages in Fengshan Township; second, to ask Zhao Wuji, the author of the two articles, to introduce the production technology and process of related products.

As for the time of the inspection, the two parties agreed to take place on the day after China's National Day.

Provincial Party Secretary Liu Boyi saw the "memorandum" signed by Xi Chuan and the Mi Consulate on the inspection of Fengshan, and at the same time he quickly gave instructions on the reception, he also asked the secretary to find the two articles about the report on Fengshan and read them carefully. stand up.Liu Boyi was a college student in the 50s, and there was no obstacle in reading these two articles. Naturally, Zao Wou-ki's writing style, writing style, and the cherishment and love for wood carving and bamboo weaving shown in the article fell into Liu Boyi's eyes.

"Secretary Hu, please help me find out from the comrades in Zizhou City, who is this Zao Wou-Ki?" After reading the article, Liu Boyi also developed a deep interest in Zao Wou-Ki.

When Zao Wou-ki was struggling to write a speech for Felina, a very complete report on Zao Wou-ki's personal situation was placed on the desk of Provincial Party Secretary Liu Boyi.

A student who has just graduated from the Department of Economics of Xichuan Normal University for three months. He joined the party during his college years. He volunteered to go to the most difficult mountainous area to exercise. He captured three gunmen with his bare hands and won the first-class merit issued by the provincial police department. The military-civilian gala won the first prize with his own self-sung songs, and the articles he wrote were not only colorful but also attracted the attention of friends from the United States?Nigerian media, isn't this an outstanding representative of outstanding university graduates in the new era?

As for the identities of Zhao Wuji's father, Comrade Zhao Dezheng, the deputy secretary of the county party committee and the executive deputy county magistrate in the report, Liu Boyi has not yet entered into Liu Boyi's eyes.

Of course the Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee would not utter such foul language. Liu Boyi thought for a while, picked up the phone and dialed Li Shaoqiang, Director of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, "Comrade Shaoqiang, don't you feel that it is difficult to select cadres? Our eyes are still We should pay more attention to the grassroots, because the grassroots will produce talents."

"Secretary Liu, have you discovered any talents?" Li Shaoqiang's appointment as the head of the organization was not given in vain. The words of the secretary of the provincial party committee are obviously because he has taken a fancy to someone and wants the organization department to inspect and promote him.

"Hey, you misunderstood. Like you, I am usually in the government. How can I find talents at the grassroots level. However, there is a college graduate named Zhao Wuji in Lujiang County, who recently published it in the "Xichuan Daily" After publishing two articles, I asked someone to inquire about it, and the performance seems to be pretty good.”

"Secretary Liu, do you also know Zhao Wuji?" Li Shaoqiang asked in surprise.

"Comrade Shaoqiang, don't you also know about Zhao Wuji?" Liu Boyi naturally heard Li Shaoqiang's surprise.

"Secretary Liu, I have indeed heard some things about Comrade Zao Wou-ki, the main reason is that my daughter was also working in Lujiang Fengshan Township Zheng Fu before, they are colleagues, my daughter told me that the young man is very good. Oh, by the way, Zao Wou-ki once wrote an investigative report on Fengshan’s industrial development, and the article was very good, but some of the viewpoints in the article were too advanced.” Since the secretary of the provincial party committee paid attention to this little guy named Zao Wou-ki, Li Shaoqiang didn't care about sending a favor.

"Hehe, do you have that article?" Liu Boyi asked casually.

"Ah, yes. I'll send it to you right away." After Liu Boyi put down the phone, Li Shaoqiang immediately searched in his file cabinet.

Zao Wou-ki's "Fengshan Industrial Development Feasibility Report" was sent by his daughter Li Ping privately. Since Li Shaoqiang disagreed with some of the views in the article, and in fact it was not the same as the wind direction above at this time, Li Shaoqiang wrote Locked in the filing cabinet.After all, Zhao Wou-ki is a young cadre that his daughter agrees with, and Li Shaoqiang is unwilling to let this article fall into the hands of some people with ulterior motives, so as not to cause undue consequences to Zhao Wou-ki and make his daughter hate him as a father.

Twenty minutes later, Li Shaoqiang sent the typed draft to Liu Boyi's office, "Comrade Shaoqiang, please sit down." Liu Boyi took the article and began to read it.As for Li Shaoqiang, he had to wait for further instructions from Secretary Liu in a cup of tea made by the secretary.

Zao Wou-ki's report is not short, with 24000 words in length. If it is published in a newspaper, it will be close to three full pages.

The most valuable thing is that Zao Wou-ki wrote this report on the industrial development of a township from the perspective of the whole country, the world, and the times. The data and terminology in the report are dense, and the arguments and discussions are quite reasonable. , although Liu Boyi was not sure about some points of view, but Liu Boyi deduced the rationality of Zhao Wou-ki's judgment from those points of view that he very much agreed with.

Liu Boyi read it very seriously. Li Shaoqiang watched Secretary Liu's reading while drinking tea. He found that Secretary Liu had only read half of it in an hour, and he even wrote a few strokes in some chapters. Sometimes I have to go back and watch it again.

At this time, Li Shaoqiang already had some regrets, that is, he did not send this report to Secretary Liu's desk earlier.

Because he intuited that Liu Boyi basically had a positive attitude towards Zao Wou-ki's article, and even this article was very important to Secretary Liu. Reading there without moving for an hour?
