"That old lady has hemophilia, and her genes are too poor. Don't even think about marrying into my family. "Vézé couldn't help but reply after reading Li Xin's telegram. The British royal family's hemophilia had always been seen as a negative example of genetics. The sons and daughters of the Victorian family intermarried with the royal families of various European countries, causing the royal families of various countries to carry this heredity. The only difference was whether it was dominant or recessive. Vézé didn't want his own bloodline to have this kind of inferior genetic defect.
However, this wasn't the focus of Vézé's attention. This diplomatic action was like the final establishment of dynamic friendly relations between China and the United States in the 21st century. The two major countries admitted that there were a lot of contradictions between them, and even fundamental contradictions. However, while acknowledging the contradictions, they controlled the contradictions, and at the same time, they didn't refuse to cooperate because of the contradictions. This was the wisdom that Vézé had plagiarized.
The other people's evaluation of the results of Li Xin's diplomacy was also very average. "This guy finally completed the task that the commander-in-chief ordered." This kind of cold water mercilessly formed a relatively common impression in the Central Committee.
As long as Vézé's orders were carried out to the letter, they would get very good results. The Restoration Party had ample experience in this regard. If Li Xin wanted to show his personal qualifications, he had to establish a career on his own before the commander-in-chief intervened. Therefore, although Li Xin's results were good, he only completed the work that a professional diplomat should do.
"Commander-in-chief, why do we let foreign devils come and earn our money? Even if we closed our doors to do business, our China is so big, why is there a lack of foreign land? "Hu Chenghe was very puzzled.
Without waiting for Vézé to answer, Prime Minister Levis continued, "The United Kingdom dominates the world with a small territory. Our China's territory is so vast, and our strength is so strong. Naturally, we have the ability to dominate the world. "
Hu Cheng glanced at Levis and couldn't help but look at Ruan Xihao. The conflict between the two of them had become public. Ruan Xihao believed that Levis was not suitable to be the Premier. Ruan Xihao and his old buddies all hoped that Shen Xin, who used to be the Director of the Political Department, could take over the position. Although the conflict had been temporarily suppressed, the grudges between the two sides had not disappeared. When it came to the upper echelons, it was no longer a simple struggle. Instead, as Vézé put it, "Who can perform better in the construction of the system." At this stage, the two sides were probably competing to see who could better promote the development and progress of China.
In a sense, this was also a collision between the Guangxi Group and the Huishang Group. As a descendant of the Huishang Group, Li Xin was obviously affected. At this time, Wang Mingshan, who was also in Europe with Li Xin, was much luckier. Although he was from Anhui, he was old friends with Shen Xin, who was highly regarded by the military. Therefore, when it came to Wang Mingshan's work, everyone at most questioned whether this arrangement was necessary, but no one criticized Wang Mingshan's work ability.
This was the first time Wang Mingshan had actually implemented China's plan in Europe. Although the trip started beautifully, the specific difficulty of the work far exceeded Wang Mingshan's imagination.
"Mr. Finance Minister, let's be frank. Who was the one who objected to us opening a branch in Florence during the implementation? "This was the third time Wang Mingshan went to see the Italian Finance Minister.
The Finance Minister, like the current senior officials in Italy, had a title, and was a local marquis. After hearing Wang Mingshan's straightforward question, the Finance Minister looked at Wang Mingshan with surprise. The marquis said in a rather surprised tone, "Sir, are you personally supervising this matter?"
There were all kinds of bureaucracy in China, and it was also a big problem of getting things done. Since 1880, at the annual meeting of the National People's Congress, the people's congress from the grassroots level raised the problem of getting things done. This involved practical issues related to the people's livelihood. Doing a simple thing required seven or eight chapters, and the ordinary people found these processes very difficult to bear. Not to mention the deep-rooted attitude of the official system. With power, there must be benefits. This was originally a legitimate process of the country, but many "procedures" were artificially set up. Although there were many senior officials in the Restoration Party, more people in the country's big system only lived through work. Their opposition to this was extremely strong.
The central government also came up with a lot of rectification measures, but the effect was probably only in the provincial capitals and big cities. The local civil service system did not improve much. There was a joke that went like this.
How to make pigs climb a tree.
Plan one, long-term motivation: Give the pig a beautiful vision and tell it that you are a monkey.
Plan two, performance assessment: Tell the pig that if it can't climb up, there will be a pig feast at night.
Plan three, responsibility implementation: Break down the task, specific time for each pig to climb the tree, and how to kill if it can't climb up within the specified time, there is a time schedule.
Plan four, imitation effect: Cut down the tree and let the pig lie on the tree for a group photo.
Usually, the country chose the first plan, the province chose the second plan, and the city chose the third plan, but in fact, the grassroots often chose the fourth plan!
Wang Mingshan was originally an outstanding talent in the system, how could he not understand this? The bank operation this time involved a lot of things and could not be neglected, so Wang Mingshan personally led the team. He wanted to use his identity as China's finance minister to personally solve the work that the grassroots might not be able to complete.
Since the Italian finance minister asked this, Wang Mingshan immediately replied, "Since the matter has been decided, then I will personally take charge and help our country open the bank."
Looking at Wang Mingshan's serious expression and listening to Wang Mingshan's serious statement. The Italian finance minister sighed awkwardly, "Sir, you put me in a very difficult position."
"Then does Sir support our country to set up a bank in Italy? Although the agreement can be signed, I would still like to ask your personal opinion. " Wang Mingshan was used to seeing bureaucrats. There was not much difference between the behavior of foreign bureaucrats and Chinese bureaucrats. It could even be said that foreign bureaucrats were far more feudal than Chinese bureaucrats. China was based on the official system, while Italy was undoubtedly still based on the aristocracy.
Seeing that Wang Mingshan was such a sensible person, the Italian finance minister did not use any bureaucratic tricks to fool Wang Mingshan. Generally speaking, when a big shot hit a wall three times, he would either fly into a rage or simply give up. Not only did Wang Mingshan not show such an attitude, but he immediately sought help and cooperation. This attitude in itself was already very remarkable.
After thinking for a moment, the finance minister said, "Sir, if you are interested, would you like to come to Florence with me?"
Seeing that the Italian Finance Minister actually had the intention to help, Wang Mingshan naturally obeyed.
