As soon as the reporter from Le Figaro finished speaking, he immediately attracted the glare of Sidney Milner. At this time, he deliberately caused trouble for Adelaide, and Sidney Milner tore his heart out.
Roque is not angry. He has been mentally prepared for this situation. It is normal for accidents to happen at press conferences. As powerful as the United States, the president even had a boot thrown at him. At least that extreme situation did not happen.
But since "Le Figaro" seeks its own death, don't blame Roque for being ruthless. As long as "Le Figaro" is willing to die, Roque will be willing to bury it. There are many newspapers in southern Africa. With "Le Figaro"
Many, even without Le Figaro.
"First of all, our party's decision on who to vote for candidacy must be the result of internal discussions. If we don't discuss it internally, do we have to discuss it with people from other parties?" Ade is not a newbie in the political arena, and it is easy to deal with this kind of problem.
: "——As for internal transactions, that situation does not exist in our southern Africa. You cannot use the situation in France to extrapolate to southern Africa."
Adelaide is still fighting, France is also holding an election, and the vote-buying scandal just broke out not long ago.
"As for Freiburg, if I remember correctly, reporters have always been interviewing Freiburg, right? Carl?" Ade directly named him. Carl Ryan was flattered. Wow, wow, wow, the Prime Minister actually remembered my name: "—
—As for why you, Prince Freiburg, the reporter of "Le Figaro" are not allowed, I think you'd better find out the reason from yourself first."
There are indeed reporters covering Freiburg all the time, but only reporters from a few newspapers such as The Times, and all reports must be reviewed by relevant departments before they can be published in newspapers.
The reporter of "Le Figaro" was red in the face. He did not get the results he wanted and made an irreparable mistake. He must pay the price for his quick words.
Killing chickens to frighten monkeys always works. As expected, when Ade next asked the reporter of Cologne Zeitung, the reporter of Cologne Zeitung was very abiding by the rules.
"Your Excellency Prime Minister, I am a reporter from the Cologne Zeitung. After the end of the world war, aid and reconstruction for Germany have also begun. What I want to ask is whether the federal government of Southern Africa has a similar plan and whether the federal government will extend its support to Germany.
Thank you for your help." The reporter from Cologne Zeitung was polite and refused to ask questions that he shouldn't have asked. He asked if southern Africa, so powerful, could provide some assistance to Germany.
Nothing is as affordable as this.
Adelaide was also well prepared for this problem. Just after the end of the world war, Southern Africa began to provide planned assistance to Germany, and it has been going on for more than a year now.
"——So, our help to Germany began more than a year ago. So far, we have shipped approximately 1.5 million tons of various food and daily necessities to Germany, and provided approximately 1.5 million tons of various food and daily necessities to Germany through Rand Bank.
We have a special loan of 50 million rand, and we have many companies that are cooperating with German companies to accept German immigrants to southern Africa - in short, I believe that Germany will definitely get better." Ade was born in Hesse, Germany.
The Grand Duchy has dual German and British ancestry, so it sincerely prays for Germany.
However, the reporter from Cologne Zeitung did not look good. Southern Africa did provide a lot of assistance to Germany, but that assistance was not free. While providing assistance, Southern Africa also received a lot of things from Germany, such as talents and
technology.
Ade only answered six questions in total at the press conference. Although there were many reporters who wanted to ask questions, Sidney Milner decisively ended the press conference.
After all, he is 70 years old, and his energy and physical strength are different from before. Ade's face cannot hide his fatigue.
Even so, Ade still refused Roque's support because he did not want to expose his weak side in front of reporters.
After leaving the Palace of Justice, Rock felt a fire in his heart. When he returned to the Ministry of Defense, he called Jerome, the head of Brad's office in Pretoria, over.
"I want the reporters from Le Figaro to leave southern Africa within three days." Roque gave the order directly and believed that Bullard's office would be able to complete it.
"Okay, my lord, I'll do it right away." Jerome didn't ask why. The less Roque said, the more it showed that "Le Figaro" was not worthy of forgiveness.
There was also the professor at the University of Good Hope who made such nonsense. Rock originally wanted Jerome to investigate as well, but after thinking about it, he decided not to. Although the professor's behavior was despicable, it did not break the bottom line.
Looking back, Roque also fulfilled his promise to stand up for Philip and met with more than a dozen members of Congress within a week to help Philip consolidate his votes.
A congressman named Paul Louis came to Rock's attention.
Paul Lewis is a member of Congress who was born in Orange. He has a relatively good voter base in Kimberley, the second largest city in Orange. In the recent general election, Paul Louis was successfully elected as a member of Congress as a member of the Liberal Party. Roque
After communicating with Paul Louis, I found that Paul Louis coincided with Rock on many concepts.
"The Old World is gradually sinking. The Treaty of Versailles cannot bring real peace. Twenty years from now, when a new generation of Europe comes of age, war will break out again. What we have to do during this time is to accumulate strength and continue to
To absorb the population, by the time the next world war breaks out, we must have at least 60% more human resources than the United States in order to complete the redemption of the old continent." Paul Lewis is not a time traveler, this is his
Rock was interested in inferences based on facts, especially about the United States.
"Why the United States, and why 60%?" Rock is really curious. Many southern Africans, like Europeans, have no favorable impression of the United States, but Rock has always regarded the United States as the country with the greatest potential.
opponent.
"Because before the rise of southern Africa, the United States was most likely to replace the British Empire's position in the world - now there are variables in this issue. The relationship between our southern Africa and the British Empire is better, and we have a better foundation to replace the British Empire. The only
The problem is that our population is not large enough. If we had 50 million people now, we would immediately replace the British Empire and become the most important country in the Commonwealth." Paul Lewis is confident about the future of southern Africa. The population
It has always been the issue that Rock is most concerned about.
The importance of population does not need to be emphasized. The United States now has a population of 100 million, which is a huge market in itself. The Commonwealth seems to be powerful, but in fact, excluding the hundreds of millions of people in India, the total population of the mainland plus overseas autonomous territories is only 7.
80 million, which is still far behind the United States.
According to the information in Rock's hands, the combined population of southern Africa and the Mesopotamia has just exceeded 25 million. If the population is to increase to 60 million within 20 years, there will be almost no hope if immigration is not increased.
possible.
This is based on the premise that the population of the United States will no longer increase. If the natural population growth of the United States is taken into account, then Southern Africa will have a population of at least 90 million to compete with the United States.
In Rock's impression, the population of the United States seemed to be about 150 million during World War II.
At this rate, Southern Africa will have a population of up to 40 million by then.
Not a lot. In another time and space, when World War II broke out in 1939, the British population was 47 million and the French population was 41 million.
In 1913, before the outbreak of World War I, the British population was 45.65 million and the French population was 41.46 million.
So here comes the question. From 1913 to 1939, for 26 years, the British population barely increased, and the French population declined instead of increasing. What happened in the middle?
There is a huge gap between 40 million and 90 million. Rock originally felt good about southern Africa's immigration performance during the World War, but after hearing what Paul Lewis said, it turned out that it was still full of crises.
There is nothing to say. Continue to increase investment in immigration companies. The Far East is in the stage of war between warlords, and people are starving and dying. Immigration is actually easier now than before.
"The most important issue now is that the mainland is gradually paying more attention to our southern Africa. The "Tariff Agreement" just passed by Congress directly targets our southern Africa. Our products are no longer as unimpeded as they used to be. London
We are trying to get rid of our dependence on us. We need to increase our lobbying in Congress. If possible, we should use all our strength to promote a person who sympathizes with our southern Africa to become prime minister." Paul Louis has ambitions, and Roque does not.
I have carefully considered this issue.
It cannot be said that Roque did not seriously consider it. Winston and Neville were Roque's biggest sources of support in London.
Although Winston resigned and lived in seclusion in Nyasaland, Neville was rising from the British political scene. The strong capital of the Chamberlain family can ensure Neville's growing influence. If Neville comes to power next, it will still have a great impact on southern Africa.
It's a major benefit.
It's not a good thing. Britain is in a mess now. Whoever comes to power will be unlucky. If Neville becomes the British Prime Minister, then Neville may not even be as good as Winston.
So Roque sent a telegram to Neville the next day, reminding Neville to be careful. Even if he wanted to be prime minister, he had to wait until the economic crisis was over.
By then, as the world economy recovers, whoever is on stage will benefit. This has nothing to do with personal ability. Judging the situation itself is also a type of personal ability.
Of course, Roque did not forget to recommend Paul Louis to Philip. Although Paul Louis' resume is not good enough, as a qualified staff member, Paul Louis is definitely qualified. Philip currently lacks people like Paul Louis.
Philip still trusted Roque, and after contacting Paul Louis, he absorbed Paul Louis into his campaign team.
Later, Paul Louis gave Roque a piece of jade to express his gratitude to Roque.
Give him a papaya and give him a Qiong Yao?
interesting.
