South Korea is determined to win this bid to host the Games.
Li Zaixun is the leading figure among them.
He personally went to Athens before and used "dollars" and "beauties" to successfully "persuade" local officials and promised to voluntarily give up and withdraw from the bid in next year's bid vote.
Now that I have come to Austria, I have the same plan.
For this reason, Seoul even allocated a special event fund in order to use some special means to get Athens and Melbourne to give up the 1988 Games.
At this time, Li Zaixun was quite proud. Sure enough, money could make all the difference. Faced with the bombardment of US dollars, both Athens and Melbourne succumbed obediently.
He has even imagined that he will become a hero when he returns this time.
After Athens and Melbourne withdrew, Seoul, the only remaining city, will undoubtedly be qualified to host the 1988 Games.
However, at this moment, a young man from South Korea wearing a suit walked in quickly from outside.
As soon as I glanced at him, I saw Li Jae-hoon raising his glass and walked over quickly.
Li Zaixun also noticed this person, said "Sorry" to the two white men, turned around and walked towards the young man, frowning and said: "What's the matter?"
The young man's expression was stern, and he lowered his voice and said: "My lord, the news just came from the Swiss Sports Games Committee headquarters in Lausanne. Two hours ago, Huaguo Capital officially submitted its application to host the 1988 Games..."
When Li Zaixun heard this, his head buzzed.
He blinked quickly, wondering if he heard it wrong, what the hell was going on!
Since you want to bid for the sports games, why did you do it earlier? Isn’t this a scam? No!
In order to win the right to host this sports meeting, South Korea invested a large amount of money and was determined to win.
But the problem is, Athens and Melbourne can find a solution, but what about the capital?
Get money? People need that little money from you?
In fact, even Athens and Melbourne are not short of millions of dollars. They only use the money to target key people. If they stumble at key places, they can mess up the matter.
The so-called success is insufficient and failure is more than enough, this is it.
But in the capital, this method is completely unavailable.
Li Zaixun's mood fell from heaven to the bottom in an instant, and his brows almost twisted into a knot.
Things are getting difficult!
…
At the same time, the capital, thousands of kilometers away, announced that it would take over the 1982 Asian Games, and at the same time, it has launched a campaign to "welcome the Asian Games and promote construction."
At this moment, it showed unprecedented high efficiency, rapid planning, rapid approval, rapid design, and rapid construction.
Multiple departments were integrated under a temporary command group and started operating quickly with a single order.
According to the original plan, the capital was supposed to build a modern new urban area in the north of the city.
We were still discussing it before, but this time it just happens to be combined with the Asian Games Village, which can save a lot of procedural trouble.
Then there is the construction of various venues. With less than two years left, it is definitely too late to build a new main stadium. We can only renovate the original Workers' Stadium as the venue for the opening and closing ceremonies.
However, the design and location of the new stadium cannot be stopped, and preparations must be made for the 1988 Games in a few years.
As for the application failure, how is that possible?
…
That night, Lee Jae-hoon booked a flight ticket overnight and flew back to South Korea.
It was five o'clock in the morning when he got off the plane, and it was already dark.
Li Zaixun pinched the bridge of his nose tiredly, no longer as high-spirited as he was the day before.
He raised his hand and looked at the expensive watch on his wrist. It was definitely too late to go to sleep at this time. He had to report to everyone as soon as possible.
The biggest reason why we are so aggressive about winning the right to host the 1988 Games is to create momentum for everyone.
Before Park Jung-seo was assassinated, although he was also seeking to hold a sports meeting, he was not so determined to win.
After all, Seoul in South Korea has been determined to host the next Asian Games in 1986. This is already an honor for South Korea.
But after Park Jung-seo's death, the newly elected president urgently needed a greater achievement to prove his legitimacy to the people.
All exchanges require the honor of the 1988 Games. It will be an unprecedented honor for South Korea to host such a world-class Games.
Once All Exchange has obtained this qualification, it is equivalent to being covered with a layer of buff. For any South Korean, as long as they enjoy the glory brought by the sports meeting, they must recognize the legality and legitimacy of All Exchange.
And before now, the difficulty and cost of this matter were not great.
But he never expected that Beijing would suddenly intervene and catch everyone off guard.
Thinking of this, Li Zaixun felt a headache.
Why is there suddenly a sports meeting? Why does it happen to be in 1988? Isn't 1992 a bad year?
After coming out of the airport, Li Zaixun got into the car and looked at the familiar road outside the car window, but he didn't want to face the next situation at all.
It's a pity that that kind of thought can only flash in my mind.
Soon, the car stopped at the side entrance of the Blue House.
Li Zaixun took a deep breath and got out of the car, followed an attendant and walked inside.
Instead of going to the office where everyone had changed, they came to a lawn.
A slightly bald middle-aged man wearing casual clothes was exercising, and he was the one currently in power.
Li Zaixun pursed his lips and stood solemnly beside him.
The officer who brought him over took a few steps closer and said nothing.
It wasn't until everyone had finished changing that they looked this way.
He wiped his sweat with a towel, came to Li Zaixun, and said calmly: "Tell me, what's going on?"
Li Zaixun bowed without saying anything: "Sir, I'm very sorry, I didn't expect..."
But before he could continue, he was interrupted by Quanquan: "I don't want to hear my apology. What are you going to do next?"
"This..." Li Zaixun was speechless for a moment, how did he know.
They all changed their towels and handed them to the entourage. They stared at Li Zaixun with hawk-like eyes: "I don't want to hear excuses. I only want the right to host the 1988 Games, no matter who the competitor is. Do you understand?"
Li Zaixun nodded quickly. No matter what he thought in his heart, his current attitude must be firm and clear.
But I was already scolding my mother in my heart.
No matter who the opponent is, he is not afraid of Feng Da's tongue flashing.
That is the capital, the capital of flowers and fruits, not Athens or Melbourne.
We can't use those unflattering methods. Otherwise, when the H-8 goes on a patrol in the East, it will fly directly over South Korea without bypassing South Korea. Why aren't you afraid?
It's a pity that Li Zaixun only dared to think about these words in his heart, and he didn't dare to say them out loud, unless he didn't want to live anymore.
"Your Excellency, if this is the case..." Li Zaixun's ability to sit in this position at such a young age was not just due to nepotism, but also because of his ability and brains.
The thought in his heart was telegraphed, and he already had a response, and he said it in a serious way: "If you want to compete with the capital, I am afraid that off-the-table methods will not work. You must compete head-on with various software and hardware conditions, and strengthen public relations for each member with voting rights. This
...The original budget was probably..."
They all raised their eyebrows but did not speak immediately.
To be fair, Li Zaixun's words are not unreasonable. He said in a deep voice: "It's still up to you to go to Ruishi. How much money is needed? Just contact Li Bingzhe directly."
Li Zaixun nodded immediately and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. At least he passed this test today.
When he came out, Li Zaixun realized that the shirt on his back was soaked through.
But then a flash of joy flashed from his eyes.
As the saying goes, a blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise.
This is what he is doing now.
Although I had a lot of money in my hands before, all that money was used as normal government public relations expenses.
Although there is some oil and water here, to be honest, it is very limited.
This time it all gave him the right to directly ask Li Bingzhe for money, which was a bad debt.
Who is Lee Byung-chul? He is the founder of Four Star Group and the representative of South Korea’s chaebol economy.
Li Zaixun's eyes flickered, and he had already begun to figure out how much benefit he could get from it this time.
As for whether the application can be successful or not, it is no longer within his control, so it is better to get the money first.
In fact, when he received the order to urgently fly back last night, Li Jae-hoon had already thought about it.
This time, the bid to host the sports games will most likely fail.
Counting on this as capital for promotion is most likely a luxury.
After all, the influence of flowers and fruits cannot be compared to that of a small South Korea.
Now, no one has to give some face to America or Su Lian. In addition, Huaguo itself has a strong base in Nanyang and its influence in the third world. Even if they cheat, they may not be able to win.
However, just when Lee Jae-hoon was in a complicated mood and was about to go find Lee Byung-cheol first, a big event happened in South Korea.
…
A few hours after Li Zaixun returned to Seoul, Du Fei received the news in the capital.
Du Fei curled his lips as he looked at the telegram he had just received.
It’s true, what is supposed to come will always come.
Just this morning, protests against the total replacement in South Korea intensified, and fierce conflicts broke out especially in Gwangju City, Jeolla Province...
Du Fei knew what was going to happen.
In the world before he traveled, this incident was quite famous.
According to official figures, more than 4,000 casualties were caused this time, including more than 150 deaths.
But there are also rumors that the real death toll is more than 3,000.
Du Fei didn't care about the matter itself, but in his memory, the biggest opponent in bidding to host the 1988 Games was Seoul.
Coupled with the fact that South Korea has always resorted to all kinds of dirty methods, some things must be prepared for a rainy day.
It just so happens that what happened this time should let the whole world see their vicious faces.
This is obviously contrary to the spirit of the Games.
Then there is the previous request regarding labor stalls in South Korea.
Although in Du Fei's impression, people like Nan Gaoli are just soy sauce, there is no guarantee.
If they can show a different character this time than what he remembers, it would not be impossible to give him some support.
However, it turns out that in the real world, most of the time, don't expect miracles.
In the days after the incident broke out, Du Fei paid close attention.
The situation gradually escalated, and in the end, everyone was ordered to shoot...
At this point, Du Fei had no illusions and no longer paid attention.
Unexpectedly, someone came to the door the next day.
…
At around ten o'clock in the morning, Du Fei was in the office checking the materials that Shen Jianing sent last night regarding the construction company's undertaking to build the Asian Games Village.
Yu Jiajia came in from outside.
As Zhang Wenzhong got older and the firefighting equipment company's business grew bigger and bigger, he gradually became unable to do what he wanted.
As Du Fei's confidant, Yu Jiajia began to take over some of Zhang Wenzhong's work.
At the end of August, when the summer was hot, Yu Jiajia was wearing a light-colored dress and white semi-high-heeled leather sandals. Her waist-length hair was permed and she wore light makeup on her face. Although she was in her thirties,
Instead, it shows a more mature and fashionable charm than before.
As national strength increases and international status is restored, the mental state of Huaguo people returns to normal, and they increasingly show their natural tolerance.
The most obvious thing is how people dress.
Yu Jiajia is not a standout person on the streets of the capital, and can only be said to be quite average.
She is eye-catching because of her beauty.
"Manager, there is a South Korean man coming outside and wants to see you." Yu Jiajia looked slightly serious and emphasized: "This man is a student leader from South Korea. According to him, he claims to be here on behalf of the labor force of South Korea...
"
When Du Fei heard this, he couldn't help curling his lips. It was really... just anyone who came to see him.
Of course, this cannot be blamed on Jiajia. After all, it involves foreigners, student leaders, and comrades from the same brotherhood. She must be cautious and report it to her superiors.
Understanding what Du Fei meant: "I understand."
Du Fei nodded, indicating that she could go.
Du Fei really didn't want to get involved in the messy affairs of South Korea.
A group of people who had been brainwashed by the so-called dishonest people and naively thought that they could use the chaebol to fight against the military... Du Fei was not even willing to call them idealists.
True idealism will never give up its ideals.
But the ideals these people talk about are completely different from what they do.
Outside, a middle-aged man wearing glasses stood at the door of the reception room and looked into the inner courtyard when he saw Yu Jiajia coming out. He had a bad feeling before he could speak.
Sure enough, Du Fei didn't agree to see him.
In fact, it's not too surprising. After all, no one recommended him and he came to the door of the unit to block people. It's a high probability that he won't be able to meet the talent.
It's just that he is not reconciled. The people with lofty ideals in their country are dying, and he must find a way to get the support of Huaguo.
They had already been to Moscow during the sports games.
As expected, he received a cold treatment.
Now when we come to Huaguo, we have concluded that Du Fei is the key figure.
It’s not about how Du Fei holds a high position of power, but if you want to get substantial help, Du Fei’s here is a shortcut.
Unfortunately, it seems that even this shortcut is extremely difficult.
"I'm very sorry, Comrade Park, our manager has a very important meeting..." Yu Jiajia made an excuse.
Pu Yongshun showed a wry smile, but did not mess around with a lady. He said helplessly: "I understand, thank you, Comrade Yu."
He knew that no matter how much he talked to Yu Jiajia, it would be useless. Whether he could see Du Fei in the end was not Yu Jiajia's decision.
However, just when he was very disappointed and turned to leave, Yu Jiajia suddenly said: "Wait a minute~"
Park Yongshun was stunned for a moment, and his dim pupils shone brightly again.
