After the Li family received the invitation letter for the charity conference sent by Shi Zhijian, the Gao family and Xie family in Bangkok also received the invitation.
At this moment, Peng Bing looked at Xu Shubiao who was speaking on the stage and nodded slightly to Dr. Fit and his wife sitting next to him.
When Shi Zhijian saw this, his heart fell to the ground.
Others don't know it, but Shi Zhijian knows clearly that people like Peng Bing have great power in Thailand, or that the "Privy Council" where Peng Bing belongs has great power in Thailand.
As we all know, Thailand is a parliamentary constitutional monarchy. The royal family, the army and the government are the three major forces that dominate Thailand's historical process. Regarding the relationship between the three, the Chairman of the Thai Privy Council once publicly stated that "the army is the horse and the government is the rider. The real
The master is the king."
To be precise, the role of the "Privy Council" is relatively fixed - it is the king's think tank, an "internal court" that manages the king's affairs, protects the royal power, implements the king's orders, and checks and balances all parties.
Generally speaking, the power of this "inner court" is very powerful. According to Thai law, if the King of Thailand is absent or shows that he is unable to exercise his powers, the Privy Council can exercise powers on behalf of the King. As the King's closest confidants, its members are originally from the government and military.
Fang's eldest brother, so he also has considerable power in Thailand.
The Constitution of the Kingdom of Thailand stipulates that within the scope of the King's powers, the Privy Council of Thailand can make recommendations to the King on issues that the King needs to study, and exercise other powers conferred by this Constitution. All Thai governments request the King's signature or ruling on issues that the King needs to consider.
, the Privy Council is obliged to participate in discussions and submit opinions to the King. These include Thai legislative drafts, Thai Royal Decree, and the appointment of senior officials by the Thai government.
At the same time, members of the Thai Privy Council have the power to recommend amnesty to criminals to the king, accept petitions from Thai people on behalf of the king, and even have the power to nominate heirs to the Thai royal family, and have the power to act on behalf of the king in his absence.
In addition, the selection, appointment and dismissal of the Chairman of the Privy Council of Thailand and all ministers are decided by the King of Thailand. Members of the Privy Council must swear allegiance to the King when taking office. Thai law stipulates that members of the Privy Council may not simultaneously serve as members of the House of Lords and the Lower House, government servants, judges, and national enterprises.
Employees or members of political parties must not lean towards any political party.
Because of this, as long as the General Peng Bing in front of him is willing to nod, then Shi Zhijian's recommendation of Xu Shubiao as the director of the Drug Administration is almost certain.
"It's amazing! This boss Xu has really shown his strength!" Gao Wanjun, one of the four Chinese tycoons in the audience, nodded in praise.
"He works with Shi Zhijian. Just like the boss, he will have the same subordinates! Sharp!" Li Yaozu gave Shi Zhijian a high look and loved him. He also praised Xu Shubiao and even clapped softly.
Only Xie Shihao looked at the stage with disdain and murmured in an almost inaudible voice: "I want to buy a director of the Drug Administration for only three hundred thousand. Such a deal is too good a deal?!"
It's not that Xie Shihao has any prejudice against Xu Shubiao, but the current situation is like this. Three hundred thousand is indeed a large amount for ordinary people, and Thai people don't have the habit of doing charity for welfare homes. Even if they do charity, they donate money to
Temple, this is Thai tradition.
But as a conscientious person, Xie Shihao knew clearly that Admiral Peng Bing, who was sitting with Dr. Fit, had absolute power of appointment and dismissal. As long as he liked him, Xu Shubiao could jump from a businessman to a medicine man.
Director of the Administration.
Xie Shihao didn't understand why Shi Zhijian arranged it like this, but where does the real power of the Drug Administration lie? No matter what Shi Zhijian does in the future, he will get twice the result with half the effort.
Xie Shihao even speculated that Shi Zhijian's next career may be related to the Food and Drug Administration. After all, young people like Shi Zhijian can rise from obscurity to become prominent in Bangkok in just six months. This kind of energy makes Xie Shihao
A veteran like this would be ashamed of himself.
In short, no matter how you look at it, is it expensive to directly exchange a donation of 300,000 yuan and 100,000 penicillins for the director of the Food and Drug Administration? Of course it is not expensive. The Food and Drug Administration is one of the three most powerful departments in Thailand.
The tax bureau, water and electricity bureau, and even the drug administration, make more than a billion dollars in revenue from drug inspections alone every year.
At this moment, not only Xie Shihao saw this, but some flexible audience members also saw this. Since a big shot like Peng Bing can attend, this charity ceremony is definitely not simple. Maybe there will be something big later.
I want to announce it.
Sure enough, after Xu Shubiao delivered his speech, there was a commotion at first, and then Dr. Fitt, who had been silent for a long time, came on stage again.
As soon as everyone saw Dr. Fitt take the stage, they knew the drama was about to begin.
Dr. Fitt changed his previous nervousness, held the microphone in his hand and made a few opening remarks, and then said: "It is an honor to invite the distinguished General Peng Bing to the scene today. Let us all welcome him to the stage to speak!"
Bang bang bang!
There was applause.
It's coming, it's finally coming!
Xie Shihao's heart was slightly agitated.
Under warm applause, Peng Bing first lowered his head and chatted with Mrs. Trish beside him for a few words, and then tidied up his appearance and stepped onto the stage.
Dr. Fite handed him the microphone.
Peng Bing took the microphone and glanced around. Thanks to his military background, his eyes were extremely sharp, and his strong aura made people involuntarily feel awe.
"Thank you all for giving me the opportunity! First of all, I want to praise this charity conference, which allows more people to participate, raise funds for the lonely elderly and disabled orphans, and show love to them! Secondly, as myself, I am very committed to charity.
My understanding became clearer with this event - what is charity?" Peng Bing raised a finger and said firmly: "It's just two words - intentional! Do good deeds and donate money.
Anything can be used! If you have the intention to do good deeds, there is no distinction between age and age! If you have the intention of doing good deeds, you will become a Buddha with just one thought, and you will become a demon with just one thought!"
"Charity requires all of us to take practical actions to complete it, rather than just talking about it!" Peng Bing spoke passionately on the stage. Everyone below was impressed by his powerful momentum. Even Shi Zhijian had to admire him.
This general has a great aura.
At the end of the speech, Peng Bing suddenly changed the topic: "Speaking of the reason for this charity, as we all know it was caused by the lifting of the ban on penicillin. Boss Xu Shubiao and Xu's beverage company, well, in the past, the pharmaceutical company directly donated 100,000 pills, and the price is still skyrocketing.
Penicillin! Not to mention, he himself directly donated 300,000 yuan! I saw a great light from him that could illuminate the road of charity. At this time, there were many vacancies in the Drug Administration.
It’s exactly what kind-hearted people like Boss Xu are needed-----”
Before Peng Bing could finish what he said, someone suddenly shouted: "Well said! Charity is not something to say with words, but to be proven with actions!" As he spoke, Xie Shihao stood up from his seat and said, "That's right!"
It is said that listening to your words is worth ten years of reading. In order to show my respect to General Peng Bing, I will donate three million in cash to this charity conference on behalf of my beloved daughter Xie Bingqian!"
With a bang, the scene exploded!
No one expected that Xie Shihao would suddenly come up with such a skill.
Even Peng Bing was stunned.
Originally, he was very angry with Xie Shihao's attitude of interrupting his speech, but when he heard that Xie Shihao actually responded to his call and donated three million on behalf of his daughter Xie Bingqian, he couldn't help but be slightly surprised!
It can be said that Xie Shihao gave Peng Bing a big face! Because of your appeal, I donated the money! With so many people witnessing it, Peng Bing couldn’t even keep a low profile!
Others were also stunned by Xie Shihao's move.
"Sharp! As expected of the head of the Xie family, this move is unmatched by anyone!" Gao Wanjun secretly praised.
"What is Xie doing if he doesn't see rabbits and doesn't let go of hawks?" Li Yaozu frowned and whispered.
Others couldn't understand Xie Shihao's sudden donation intention. Just donate, and donate so much. Are you crazy?!
Li Xuexuan's beautiful eyes twinkled and she couldn't guess.
Not to mention Feng Guoquan, Charlie Chen and others, they are all a lake of brains.
Only Shi Zhijian narrowed his eyes, looking like a hawk at Xie Shihao, who was smiling and awe-inspiring!
Playing cut-off? This is my speciality. I didn’t expect to meet my opponent today. It’s interesting, it’s really interesting!
After Xie Shihao finished speaking, he directly greeted his precious daughter Xie Bingqian and said, "Aqian, why don't you stand up and go to the stage to personally hand over the money we donated to General Peng?"
Xie Bingqian seemed to have been prepared for it. She stood up with a smile, turned around politely and nodded to everyone, and then she took the stage lightly.
Admiral Peng Bing was calculating in his mind whether to accept it or not!
We are all smart people, and he could see what Xie Shihao was thinking at a glance, but it was too outrageous to arrange for a woman to be the director of the Drug Administration, right?
But Peng Bing soon understood that Xie Dongcheng, the eldest son of the Xie family, was pursuing an official career. Now he wanted to run for parliament, and he also wanted to join the Privy Council in the future.
Needless to say, his second son Xie Xi will of course inherit the family business. As for this precious third daughter, she is really suitable for seeking an official position in the government's real power department!
Nowadays, the whole world pays attention to "women's liberation." If Xie Bingqian can take charge of the Food and Drug Administration and become the first female director, it will definitely add glory to Thailand's achievements in the feminist movement.
Who is Peng Bing?
He was a general who had fought in battles. He understood the rationale after just a little calculation, and couldn't help but praise Xie Shihao again for "no omissions were left out in his calculations."
Compared with Xu Shubiao, Xie Bingqian is better than Xu Shubiao in terms of status and contribution - one is three million, the other is three hundred thousand, anyone who knows mathematics will understand.
Even Xie Bingqian's female identity, which was originally at a disadvantage, turned out to be an advantage under the international situation!
After Peng Bing thought everything clearly, Xie Bingqian came on stage and handed him a donation check of three million.
Peng Bing smiled, glanced at Dr. Fitt and his wife in the audience, with a hint of apology in his eyes, then reached out to take the check, took Xie Bingqian's hand and raised it high, saying: "Thank you, Miss Third, for your donation.
Applaud and pay high respect to her!"
There was silence for a moment, then thunderous applause!
We are all smart people, what we have to do at this time is to add icing on the cake!
"Miss Xie is so sharp!"
"Miss Xie is really kind and righteous!"
"Long live Miss Xie!"
Everyone applauded one after another, and some even shouted loudly.
Admiral Peng Bing said nothing more. The declaration that he was originally planning to nominate Xu Shubiao as the director of the Food and Drug Administration came to an abrupt end with Xie Bingqian's sudden donation.
Shi Zhijian in the audience knew that the real competition had just begun.
…
Like many charity conferences, after Peng Bing made a concluding speech, some on-site interactions followed.
Those who want to stand out on such occasions will certainly not miss every opportunity to be spotlighted, so during the on-site charity donation event, they generously donated 3,500 yuan to the donation box.
For them, they spent 10,000 yuan to buy invitations to the venue before, so why would they be stingy with the 3,500 yuan now?
Of course, their donation was definitely rewarded. The children transferred from the orphanage by Shi Zhijian surrounded the kind and benevolent people, offering them flowers and asking for hugs.
Those people took the opportunity to hold their children and take photos with the media while holding flowers.
Mrs. Tracey is the protagonist today, and of course she is indispensable in such an occasion. Many tycoons took the initiative to interact with her, take photos, and talk about charity together.
Dr. Fit is a typical scholar who is obsessed with scientific research and has no interest in such occasions. He will not take the initiative to seek the limelight or steal the limelight. After taking photos with everyone and blessing him, he stepped back to admire the display boards placed in the auditorium. Above are introductions to orphanages and nursing homes, as well as many photos of children playing football, and pictures of charity volunteers helping the elderly wash bedding.
Shi Zhijian quietly moved to Dr. Fitt's side and admired the colorful photos with him. Seeing that other people nearby were paying attention to Admiral Peng Bing and Mrs. Cuisi, Shi Zhijian whispered softly. He said, "No matter what, thank you for your help this time."
Dr. Fit didn't say anything, but turned his head with his hands behind his back and looked at Admiral Peng Bing who was taking pictures with the children in the distance. Then he looked at Shi Zhijian and said, "It's a pity that we couldn't help in the end, right?"
Shi Zhijian smiled: "Who will eventually sit on the director's chair has not yet been determined, right?"
Dr. Fite frowned: "Dear Shi, to be honest, I admired you at first! But now... you are too utilitarian, which is not a good thing."
Shi Zhijian stood side by side with Dr. Feite, hands behind their backs, "But you have to admit that the promotion of society is accomplished by utilitarianism! Without utilitarianism, people would just be in a stagnant pool of water, not knowing how to struggle, not knowing how to strive. Society will also stagnate and develop!”
Dr. Fit was thoughtful and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "You are sophistry. In my opinion, what promotes social development and people's progress is love and scientific research!"
"Love can be divided into true and false, and scientific research can also involve intrigues!" Shi Zhijian said, imitating Dr. Fit's actions, and turned to look at Peng Bing, who was being sought after: "For example, guess him---is he loyal or traitorous? ?”
