Chapter 714 (2/2)

President Li: ”I've only heard about the wealth of nations before. I must read it when I have the opportunity. However, sir Youde's governance of the place can not only rely on the knowledge in books, but also a Book 200 years ago. ”

”I don't think Mr. ADA Smith expected that the economic development and changes would be so fast, and all kinds of new manufacturing industries would develop so fast. Britain can't always think of its glory. It would be very dangerous. ”

”This is the 20th century, not Britain in the sunset. We can't always look at problems with the old eyes. We should know how to keep pace with the times. Diplomats are not unfit for other jobs. They can't pull too high at once. In this way, they are prone to problems without experience. When you want to adjust, you may have suffered heavy losses. ”

Youde didn't expect President Li to react so quickly. It seems that he really underestimated each other. Before, I felt that the Chinese mainland was relatively closed, and there must be no research on many new things in the world. As for the development of economy, it is the level of primary school students, so it is with the theory of national wealth.

I didn't expect the other party to move things back. There are still many capable people in mainland China. When these people grow up, they will add a demographic dividend; What a huge amount of energy will erupt, I can't imagine. So it seems that the British Empire is even more unable to maintain the rule of Xiangjiang. It still needs to make plans early. Otherwise, you may be caught off guard.

But the aura can't be lost. He doesn't represent himself now, and the whole British Empire.

Youde smiled and said, ”sometimes I really admire you Chinese people. You don't understand it. But it's hard to pretend. If you weren't familiar with Chinese culture, you might have been fooled. ”

In fact, President Li knows what's going on, and he is also reflecting. With such a good opportunity to work in Xiangjiang, why don't you read more books. We must change, not so lucky every time. As the president of Xinhua news agency, he is already a civil servant in mainland China who knows the British best. But they still make jokes. It seems that they need to change their strategy.

First of all, take a look at the wealth of nations. Youde has read many Chinese literary works. People know you, but you don't know them. It's strange that you don't suffer losses in negotiations. Although the Chinese mainland is now standing in the general interest, not every negotiation is related to Xiangjiang.

President Li: ”Sir Youde's remarks are too one-sided. Is there no such person in Britain! Everyone in the world has his own ideology. We can't change it, we can only constantly improve ourselves. ”

Two people chat can be said to be full of sparks, and there is a knife in their words. All the people who came to Huo's house to attend the birthday banquet this time are not only people with status, but also smart people.

Seeing these two chatting, neither of them came forward to say hello. Isn't that nothing to ask for!

It was not until dinner was about to begin that Huo Yingdong came as the host. He smiled and said, ”I'm very happy to see the two chatting. Is it a bad time for me to come over?”

Although Youde doesn't like Huo Yingdong, today is also the other party's 60th birthday. He came to the birthday banquet again. The face that should be given should still be given, otherwise everyone's face will be ugly.

Youde smiled and said, ”President Li is very knowledgeable. I also benefited a lot from chatting with him.”

Hearing the host's invitation to take a seat, President Li didn't forget to dig at himself. President Li knew that Youde didn't want to make himself feel better. Then we can't let him do what he wants. Anyway, two people will never be friends.

President Li: ”where can we compare with Sir Youde to formulate Xiangjiang's economic strategy according to the economic point of view of the wealth of nations theory. Britain has talents. Mainland China can formulate an economic plan for up to five years, but Britain can formulate an economic plan for 200 years. It seems that we should study hard. There is a lot of difference in this aspect. ”

Although it was far fetched, Youde was still unhappy. It can be said that the conversation was evenly divided, but Youde was slightly better on the whole. President Li mainly knew too little about Britain. Youde is a genuine huaxiatong, which also makes president Li read British books every day after work. When he retired, he became a British expert and published a book on Britain.
