Chapter 2590 The skin smiles and the flesh does not smile
Seeing Liu Fei's face suddenly darkened, the atmosphere in the entire reception hall suddenly became tense.
Whether it is Gordon or the officials accompanying him, even Xiao Jianhui's face looks very ugly at the moment. Although he hopes that this visit can go smoothly, he has been forbearing and restraining, but Xiao Jianhui himself is a soldier, and he has a very hot temper, especially when it comes to issues of dignity. He also has his own bottom line, and he actually has no regard for what Liu Fei said on the bus before. I quite agree, but sometimes, in order to complete the tasks he shoulders, he has to make some local compromises, but he also has his own bottom line. Now that he sees his delegation encountering accidents one after another, Xiao Jianhui also explodes. He looked at Liu Fei with a gloomy face and said: "Secretary Liu, since Mr. Hanest is not in the presidential palace, I don't think we need to stay here. Let's go back to the hotel to rest first."
Hearing Xiao Jianhui suddenly made this suggestion, Liu Fei's face showed a look of relief, and his eyes softened when he looked at Xiao Jianhui. At this moment, Xiao Jianhui truly has some weight in Liu Fei's eyes. Only those who can defy any power and hardships Only those who are worthy of becoming his partner, and the Xiao Jianhui in front of him is truly worthy of his position as deputy leader. Liu Fei nodded lightly and said: "Well, that's fine, let's go back first."
At this moment, the translator quickly told Gordon the content of the conversation between Liu Fei and Xiao Jianhui. After listening to this, Gordon showed a look of embarrassment on his face. He quickly smiled bitterly and said to Liu Fei: "Commissioner Liu, please Don't get excited. Please listen to me explain. Our President, Mr. Harnest, did not do this on purpose. It was like this. Just half an hour ago, people rushed into a primary school in the suburbs of Morris. A group of armed thugs hijacked a whole class of more than 50 students. They demanded that Morris pay a ransom of 10 million US dollars and provide them with a helicopter to escape. They also said that Hanes must be heard They will only consider releasing him if President Trump personally agrees to their request. Otherwise, after an hour, they will kill a student every three minutes, and for some reason this matter was reported by the Associated Press, Agence France-Presse, etc. The big news media have all heard about it, and they are broadcasting this matter live. Mr. Hanest is under great pressure now. Although he really wants to welcome you at this time, the situation in the suburbs is also very critical. , as the president, he must personally go to solve the problem, because Mr. Hanest is a child who came out of the slums, so he cares very much about ordinary people. He is not like Osnorwood, the leader of the Pan American United Peace League. That kind of politician, but a good leader who wants to do something for our Morris country and people and change the destiny of the people of our country, so he asked me to express my sincere apology to you first. He said that he would wait until he solves this problem. After this incident, I will personally come to apologize to you and the delegation. I hope you can forgive him."
After hearing Gordon's explanation, Liu Fei's anger dissipated a lot. Although he hadn't met Hanest yet, he suddenly felt a lot of respect for Hanest, a president who came out of the slums. Liu Fei was very appreciative of Hanest's ability to choose between meeting him and resolving the hostage crisis. This appreciation was because he saw the shining points in Hanest. Seeing that Hanest is not a politician, but a real leader, a leader who truly cares about the sufferings of the people, and only such a person can lead the people of Morris towards a more promising future, if If Hanest chooses to continue to welcome Liu Fei and his delegation among these two things, then Liu Fei's trust in Hanest will be lowered to a lower level, because a politician values more his own political interests. , but what a leader values is the interests of a nation and a country, and the success rate of cooperation with a leader is far greater than that of cooperation with a politician.
Liu Fei also stood up, took the initiative to reach out his hand and shook hands with Gordon and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Gordon, you can tell Mr. Hanest that he can solve the hostage crisis first. If he can do something like this Not only will our delegation not be angry or angry, but we are full of respect for his choice, and we are full of expectations for working with a leader like Hanest who truly cares about the people's sufferings."
After hearing Liu Fei's words, Gordon took a long breath and looked at Liu Fei with more gratitude and relief. From Liu Fei, he saw the magnanimity of a great country, and even more. From Liu Fei, we can see some characteristics similar to Hanest's, and this is precisely what surprises Gordon the most, because Gordon is not a simple person.
Gordon was originally a hegemonic presence in Morris's place. Even the Pan-American Union was quite afraid of him. At the beginning, Osnorwood and the Americans were constantly trying to win over Gordon. They even promised Gordon many very favorable conditions in the hope that Gordon would fall to their camp. But at that time, after careful consideration, Gordon still did not choose Osnorwood and the Americans, but finally chose to work with them. Hanest has a high voice among the people but is relatively weak, because Gordon himself is also a man full of patriotic enthusiasm. Over the years, although he has held a high position in the local area, it is precisely because of his high position that he Only then did I see the unequal treatment suffered by the Morris people under the plunder and oppression of the Americans and Western forces. I saw the suffering the Morris people suffered. I saw the meager gains the Morris people received despite their hard work. However, it is difficult for him to earn enough to support his family. As a politician, Osnorwood is only the spokesperson of the United States. He is a pure politician who does not care at all about the suffering of his own nation. He cares more about his own political interests. and economic interests, and the reason why Gordon chose Hanest for cooperation was precisely because he saw the deep patriotic enthusiasm exuded by Hanest and his persistent dedication to the people of Morris. , and it was with Gordon's support and the prestige he had established among the people that Hanest finally defeated the politician Osnorwood in the recent general election and successfully ascended to the top. , it can be said that Hanest's success is the awakening of the people of Morris, and it is also due to Gordon. Therefore, when Hanest ran for election, he began to partner with Gordon.
At this moment, after Xiao Jianhui listened to Gordon's explanation and Liu Fei's answer, he didn't say anything, but remained silent, because he also recognized Liu Fei's actions, but in his heart he had to treat Liu Fei He admired Liu Fei's response speed, and his anger and anger fully demonstrated Liu Fei's character and magnanimity.
At this moment, Gordon looked at Liu Fei and said with a smile: "Commissioner Liu, Mr. Hanest specially told me that in order to show respect for you and your delegation, he has arranged the decoration in the banquet hall. We have organized a VIP banquet to entertain all of China’s international friends, and in order to express his welcome to you, Mr. Osnorwood, the leader of the Pan-American Union, has also rushed to the banquet hall in advance to wait for you." said the last words. At this time, Gordon's face showed a trace of worry. He is a very smart man, and he knows very well that Osnorwood is absolutely indispensable for welcoming Liu Fei, because he is the Speaker of the Parliament and has the right to do so. It is also very big, but Gordon is most worried about Osnorwood, because he knows very well that with Osnorwood's character, it is impossible under normal circumstances to go to the banquet hall in advance to wait for Liu Fei and the others, especially After knowing the purpose of the Galliton Alliance's invitation to Liu Fei and the others, it was absolutely impossible. Thinking of this, Gordon secretly thought: "Osnorwood, I hope you will never pull any tricks. Although Liu Fei has a good demeanor, but problems arise one after another, I am afraid that even if he has a good demeanor, he will become angry."
After listening to Gordon's words, Liu Fei just smiled lightly and said: "Well, okay, then I would like to thank the people of Morris for their hospitality."
Liu Fei is not a pedantic person. He knows very well that there are certain rules for mutual reception between countries. If there is a deviation in the reception specifications, it can only mean that the person receiving the reception or the country has something in mind. And you must pay great attention to these details.
After resting for a while, Gordon stood up and said: "Commissioner Liu, everyone, you have worked hard to come all the way. Now I will take you to the banquet together."
Liu Fei smiled and nodded, stood up, and walked out with Gordon, followed by the others.
When Liu Fei and his party walked to the door of the banquet hall, they saw a fat white man about 1.90 meters tall standing at the door with a smile on his face. When he saw Liu Fei and the others coming, he took the initiative to reach out to Liu Fei. He laughed loudly and said: "Dear Mr. Liu Fei, you are very welcome to visit our Morris. I am Osnorwood. On behalf of the people of Morris and the Parliament, I welcome you."
Seeing the smile on the fat man's face, Liu Fei's expression seemed very dull, because he had already seen that although the fat man was smiling, he was smiling, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were twinkling. The sinister luster made Liu Fei secretly feel a little more wary.
