Chapter 1266 (1/2)
The attic in the heart of the ocean, under the semi open arc dome, is now full of lights.
This is the most luxurious banquet hall in the whole new country, and at the same time, it often hosts the most top dinners in the whole new country. In addition to the state banquet, which is usually sponsored by futuren group, private or enterprises will have to pay NT $20 million for renting venues.
According to the current international influence of the new nation and the Earth Defense Alliance, the banquet held here at this moment is probably one of the most desirable meals in the world, which is no less than the state banquet held in the White House. Maybe what's on the banquet table is not a wonderful delicacy, but all kinds of things outside the table determine the future direction of the world.
”Ha ha, president Zhang, Congratulations!” The man in a suit and leather shoes stepped forward and congratulated.
”It seems that heaven is destined to keep our new country prosperous, because every citizen of the new country has made the right choice.” Dressed in a black evening dress, a representative of a civic group raised his glass with a smile and also offered congratulations.
In the face of congratulations and compliments, president Zhang humbly smiles, leaving as elegant an image as possible for the visitors. However, the corner of his mouth and the red light on his face betrayed his pride.
The victory came easily, even as expected.
However, even if you know this, the little vanity in people's hearts has been greatly satisfied.
Who would have thought that four years ago, a political refugee who lived in exile in New Zealand, turned out to be the revolutionary leader of the new country and was promoted to the presidency?
Of course, not everyone is happy with the result.
Standing in the corner of nobody's attention, the Party member looked jealously at Zhang Yaping, who was cheering and congratulating at the door, and whispered sarcasm.
”It's just a thigh? There's nothing good about it. ”
”Ha ha, just a puppet...”
”Hum! When I become president, the first thing I will do is to end the monopoly of the futureman group on the economy of the new country, and the second thing is to take back the power of national defense and intelligence from the star ring trade. It's just an enterprise. It's unreasonable to ride on the head of the country... ” Those who want to talk to their own party members are more likely to hate their own party members.
Occasionally a passer-by heard it and laughed at it casually.
”So you'll never be president.”
The man's face was red, his chest was angry, but he did not speak and looked to one side.
Obviously, when he said these words, he was very clear.
As long as the new country continues to be strong and powerful, these ideas can only be realized in a dream
In addition to a few complaints, the main theme of the banquet was positive.
Melodious symphonies reverberate in every corner of the hall, and courteous waiters walk through the table, adding wine to the goblet on the long table.
From time to time, there was a commotion at the door of the banquet hall, and the guests in the banquet hall also cast their attention to the door from time to time.
In addition to those important guests, the ambassadors of some superpowers, the foreign ministers of a member state of the Earth Defense Alliance, or the generals and presidents of the vassal countries of Morocco, the Philippines and Madagascar
To these guests who come to visit on behalf of the country, whether they are welcome or welcome, the battle is quite grand. After all, this is to lay the foundation for the future four years of diplomatic relations between the two countries. No matter how much budget is spent and how extravagant and wasteful the performance place is, it is worth it.
”Welcome, Mr. Kerry.” Looking at the Americans who came in, Zhang Yaping's face appeared a little surprised, but soon turned into a smile like spring breeze and stretched out his right hand to him. ”It's a great honor for the United States to have such an outstanding secretary of state like you.”
”Thank you for the compliment,” Kerry said with a formulaic smile, although he was not satisfied with such praise. ”On behalf of the U.S. government, I would like to congratulate you on your election. I hope that in the next four years, we will work with you to maintain world peace and cooperate in a wider range of fields...”
After reading his lines, Kerry gave a smile without hypocrisy, nodded politely to president Zhang and the clapping crowd around him to show his friendliness. He released his clenched hands and walked into the hall.
……
Standing on the elevator to the banquet hall on the top of the building, Jiang Chen took Aisha's little hand, looked at the figures on the lawn outside the landing window, and the reporters who were stopped outside the isolation zone by the police and the army, narrowed their eyes slightly and read a poem softly.
