Chapter 535 Country Life (15)

On the ordinary streets of Paris in the evening, the lower half of the French four-story building with red brick building materials is in the shadows created by the building across the street, and the upper half is painted with red colors by the sunset. The window glass and a few metals and reflective objects on the roof of the slope shine in the sunset, and the mottled exterior walls of the ancient stone buildings appear even more dark. No matter what the gaps are in between any buildings, just look in the direction of the Eiffel Tower, you can see the tall tower standing proudly in your view under the sky.

The ash that the vehicles overwhelmed was uneven on the road. On the stone walkways on both sides of the road were a large number of Parisian citizens wearing ordinary clothes. The pebbles under their feet had been completely stepped into the soil underground. Only in the position close to the roadside can a small number of pebbles be seen exposing part of the oval shape.

The closer it is to the Grand Opera Paris, the road becomes better. The stone sidewalk is replaced by cement-hardened ground. When the gorgeous Grand Opera Paris Paris shows its huge appearance in front of Yan Huiqing, Yan Huiqing noticed that the road surface under her feet is paved with stone slabs. Although the stone slabs are broken, you can still see the beautiful shapes built when they were initially laid.

In addition to the cars, a series of gorgeously decorated carriages were parked at the entrance of the magnificent opera house. After the gorgeous passengers got out of the car, the coachman proudly drove towards the parking lot. Yan Huiqing walked up the steps and arrived at the special entrance. The guard saw Yan Huiqing and turned around and said something to the guard opposite. The person on the opposite side walked quickly into the entrance. After a moment, a man in a long dress and manager looked at Yan Huiqing for a moment, he stepped forward politely and said, "Mr. Minister, welcome."

The Grand Opera House in Paris is much more gorgeous than outside. All the walls have complex shapes of flowers, from reliefs, bright lights illuminate these beautiful shapes, as well as the murals and the top paintings on the top of the corridor. The light and shadows created by it integrate the plane and three-dimensional artworks, showing the aesthetics of French luxury architecture and artistic style.

After walking through the luxurious corridor and climbing up the steps, the manager led Yan Huiqing and others into the minister's room on the second floor. There is an excellent viewing perspective here. As soon as Yan Huiqing sat down, he saw many people looking at him on the opposite room and the seats on the first floor. Some people raised their telescopes and wanted to see more clearly.

Soon, the door of the box was knocked, and some great followers came to give him business cards. The secretary introduced the name and identity on the business card to Yan Huiqing with his outstanding memory, including the directors of Bank of France, owners of large French companies and general managers. Yan Huiqing soon heard an interesting person from it, Professor Michelle. The professor of the high-level Parisian professor also gave Yan Huiqing a business card.

Should I go and meet? Yan Huiqing had such an idea. Soon, Yan Huiqing suppressed this impulse. Today, it is not suitable to meet these people, especially this French high-level professor. As a diplomat, Yan Huiqing can confront foreign government personnel in person, but in the face of scholars, journalists and other unofficial personnel, Yan Huiqing must be polite. It is very impolite to invite professors from Paris high-level professors to the private room now.

The etiquette approach is that Yan Huiqing will send someone to the Higher Education Department of Paris tomorrow to request a visit to the school. After receiving the approval of the Higher Education Department of Paris, she asked the school whether there was this Professor Michel during the visit. If Professor Michel is at the school at this time, she would request to meet with Professor Michel. If Professor Michel is not here, the letter asking for Professor Michel will be forwarded to the school.

As a diplomat, you must respect the foreign people. Even if the war breaks out with the country, you must emphasize that you have no malice towards the foreign people. Such politeness proves the attitude of the Chinese official towards French folks.

The opera performed today is "Turando". This opera is an Eastern story of Western fantasy. In order to avenge the abducted by his ancestors in the dark night, Turando (meaning "warm" in Mongolian) ordered that if a man could guess her three riddles, she would marry him; if he guessed wrong, he would be executed. After three years, many unlucky people have died.

After seeing Princess Turandot in Mainland, a Tatar prince was fascinated by her beauty and pursued the princess. Finally, she won the princess' love and hugged the beauty.

Yan Huiqing's Italian language is not very good, and this story is not particularly touching to the Chinese. But when the actor sang "No one falls asleep tonight", the love and desire from the heart from the song are not wild and unscrupulous, but deep and full of surging emotions. Yan Huiqing was moved and stood up and applauded with the same moved audience.

Many people in the second floor box noticed Yan Huiqing's touch, but to their surprise, not long after, Yan Huiqing left the box with his secretary. Until the end of the performance, the box was empty and Yan Huiqing did not finish the performance.

In the box opposite, a beautiful French lady said in confusion: "This Chinese minister is so strange. He applauded "No one fell asleep tonight", but he did not watch the eighth act at all."

Her companion replied in a nice mezzo-speaking voice: "Maybe he doesn't like this opera." Although his tone was plain, his disappointment was very clear.

It has to be said that this French girl with a nice mezzo-speaking voice did guess Yan Huiqing's view of "Turandot". However, the reason why Yan Huiqing left was because the embassy sent a message, and China and the United States finally signed the "Several Agreements on Travel, Migration and Judicial Cooperation between China and the United States". This agreement is undoubtedly a representative of the breakthrough of Sino-US relations. Yan Huiqing wanted to see the content of this agreement as soon as possible.

The Chinese Embassy in France has not received the full text yet, only a rough outline. Yan Huiqing looked over one by one and finally felt relieved. China's conditions were formulated by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and at least this outline is exactly the same as the clauses in Yan Huiqing's memory. In other words, the United States accepted China's demands.

Taking off his glasses, Yan Huiqing couldn't help but remember the French government was discussing the suggestions put forward by He Rui at this time. Yan Huiqing was very confident in the signing of the Sino-France strategic cooperation, and He Rui accurately grasped France's needs. However, He Rui clearly stated the needs of China in his handwritten letter, "France provides China with an interest-free loan of 20 billion francs, which will be paid off in 10 years from the third year after the full payment of 20 billion francs."

Yan Huiqing believed that He Rui would never speak out loud. However, if this condition was proposed by someone else, Yan Huiqing would definitely think that the person who proposed this condition made such a judgment with a very unserious attitude. Of course, Yan Huiqing was also very clear. If the French government agreed to such conditions, it would mean that China-France cooperation would inevitably be truly implemented.

The Elysee Palace, the French Presidential Palace is brightly lit. The French President, Prime Minister, House President, Foreign Minister, and Chairman of Bank of France are ready to make the final decision. Mr. Ma Baifu, Chairman of Bank of France, wiped the sweat from his fat face and prepared to speak.

Born in a Marseille banker family, he went to the senior year of the University of Paris, studied at the Paris High School, and then worked in several large French companies. He then returned to the banking industry and continued to accumulate experience, becoming one of the many directors of Bank of France.

If it weren't for the excessive work of raising funds for France during the European War and causing serious illness, he should have been losing weight all the time. However, in order to cure the disease, Chairman Ma Baifu used hormones. Although his condition was greatly relieved, his body became so fat.

However, the physical burden did not affect Mr. Ma Baifu's thinking ability. After understanding the plan proposed by China, Chairman Ma Baifu understood that he must let China-France cooperation be completed. At this time, French President Dumeg asked: "Mr. Ma Baifu, do you still think this cooperation is an opportunity for France?"

"Yes." Mr. Ma Baifu replied decisively. Although obesity caused by endocrine problems caused him to tremble when he stood up, Mr. Ma Baifu still stood straight, just like when he was young.

"Mr. President, I guarantee that with my personal experience in my personal career and the kindness of God, the plan of the Chinese government, Mr. He Rui, fully takes into account the interests of France. This is a plan tailor-made for France. For France, I ask you to fully accept Mr. He Rui's conditions."

After two days of discussion, many economic people have explained their views on this suggestion to the French senior officials. The upper class, including French President Dumeg, has understood that He Rui's plan is indeed in line with France's interests. But in contrast, He Rui's conditions seem... very bold. The interest-free loan of 20 billion francs will be paid off in 10 years. Even though French economic people believe that this condition is not unacceptable, the Prime Minister believes that the French cabinet is afraid that it will not agree to such a request.

Ma Baifu fully understood the views of the government's upper-level government and emphasized his own view, "20 billion francs do seem very risky, but France's short-term returns will far exceed this amount. In the long run, France will gain financial confidence and industrial revival from this strategic opportunity. In my personal opinion, Mr. He Rui's request is very fair."

Seeing that the government leaders were still hesitating, Ma Baifu continued: "If such a huge investment enters a country like China that lacks an industrial foundation, there will definitely be problems during the implementation period. Therefore, I suggest that a team of experts from France will go to China to provide timely advice to China to help them solve the difficulties encountered in industrial development."

Hearing such a firm view from the chairman of Bank of France, French President Dumeg also made up his mind, "Mr. Ma Baifu, do you think we can make changes to Mr. He Rui's suggestions?"

Ma Baifu immediately shook his head, and his head was so violent that the fat on his neck also shaking, "No, Mr. President. Mr. He Rui proposed such conditions based on his trust in France. Britain will not accept a completely industrialized China. The United States only considers making profits from China. Only France will treat China fairly. Compared with the benefits that France is about to obtain, China has the right conditions. Mr. President, I would like to ask you to answer me, is the purpose of modifying the conditions for economic or political considerations?"

President Dumeg heard the blame from Ma Baifu's words. As a politician, it is almost instinct to consider issues from the perspective of political interests. So Dumeg understood why Ma Baifu made such a blame. Previous economic people believed that once the cooperation was successful, the French economy would revitalize. France's current economy is suffering from external pressure, internal inflation and monetary turmoil. As long as the economic situation improves, Dumeg, who decides about this matter, and the current cabinet, will gain huge political benefits.

It is obvious that the gains will not be worth the loss to damage China's trust in France for hundreds of millions of francs.

Dumeg finally made up his mind. He stood up and said, "Sir, from now on, this matter is the highest secret. I believe that for the future of France, you will surely ensure that you will not disclose this matter."

Seeing that President Dumeg finally made a decision, Ma Baifu felt relaxed and sat back on the sofa like a mountain of meat.

French Foreign Minister Beryan straightened his back. He understood that it was time to take action himself next.

Sure enough, President Dumeg said: "Mr. Beryan, I hope you can determine the time when President He Rui visited France."
