Chapter 287 What a big game of chess

"Then I'm sure I'm sure I'm very grateful to His Highness the Princess for her trust. However, I also talked about this topic today, and I was surprised by these ideas at the moment, but I was not prepared.

So please forgive me for not being able to provide a specific solution that is effective within a year or two. Maybe I will start to implement it after I finish my studies.”

Gu Ao made a final conclusion on today's discussion with Princess Caroline and Prince Albert.

If you are too active in opening new pits, it will make people feel that you have been planning for a long time, and you are digging the pit and waiting for others to jump. Only by giving each other some extra money can you help build longer-term credit.

Princess Caroline also recognized Gu Ao's rhythm, and the cocktail party ended in a peaceful atmosphere.

The first pot of friendship can be relied on nepotism, and the subsequent efforts must be made to prove your value. This is an eternal truth.

Everyone was very happy, only Tiffany was a little unhappy. She didn't find Gu Ao so passionate about business, but she thought he was an interesting guy who was obsessed with art and excitement, and made some money by the way.

Unexpectedly, Gu Ao's "vulgar" side finally began to be revealed. His attraction to Tiffany also weakened for the first time.

Who made Tiffany never contact Gu Ao's serious and focused work before? What she saw was Gu Ao's side. When the truth was revealed, the gap would always appear slowly.

Gu Ao had no time to take care of the girl's emotions. Early the morning of the next morning of the cocktail party, he drove to Paris in person and then boarded a flight back to China.

...

On the morning of March 29, Gu Ao rushed back to China as scheduled.

After leaving Beijing Airport, I went home and took a break and clean up to maintain my spirits. In the afternoon, I was in a hurry to return to the commission to report for leave.

Fortunately, he handed over part of his job in the committee before the Chinese New Year, so he was still busy.

The sign here will be completely withdrawn next month. The office space in this building will be transferred to the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation for use. Now a considerable number of personnel in the committee will be transferred to the public. In fact, many people who have quickly handed over are already accepted there.

When Gu Ao returned to his office, he saw along the way that there were about one-third fewer people working than before the New Year. All kinds of unwanted expired secrets were sent for review and burning and treatment.

There is nothing much to say about the days when An'an handed over the work, it is just a trivial verification and proofreading and confidential audit.

The one-month handover period passed quickly. On May 5th, when Gu Ao went to work again to report, he had officially changed to a new unit.

Ministry of Electronics Industry.

The work location was also moved from Dongdan to Xidan, occupying the original office building of the Fourth Machinery Department. At that time, there were foreign affairs ministries and commissions near Dongdan, while there were many technical supporting departments near Xidan.

The newly established Ministry of Electronics Industry was based on the original Ministry of Machinery and also attracted the attention of the State Administration of Computer Industry and the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television. It is the "State Administration of Radio, Film and Television Industry", with the word "industry".

This former "State Administration of Radio, Film and Television Industry" was a general bureau under the State Council. It has existed for a few years. It was originally in charge of the construction of TV signal towers and broadcast signal towers across the country and provides infrastructure facilities for TV stations/radio stations across the country.

It is somewhat similar to the nature of the later generations of "China Tower Company" building towers and base stations for the three major operators.

The "General Administration" that everyone is more familiar with is directly in charge of the national TV and radio content work. It is in charge of the power of harmonious life and death.

But no matter what, there are many old people from the General Administration of Radio, Film and Television "Industry" who once came from the General Administration of "not bringing industry". Just like when China Tower was established in later generations, it must have been from Mobile, China Unicom and Telecom each to be the senior executives.

Now that the State Administration of Industry has been incorporated into the Ministry of Electronics Industry, Gu Ao saw a deputy department on the list of leaders on the first day, several directors and deputy directors, all of whom were important leaders of the former radio and television interface.

These are all personal resources, and they get along better with each other. In the future, they can develop cultural industries in China... Haha, I can't say much.

In short, Gu Ao took advantage of the last few days before going abroad this month to make friends.

...

This day was May 8, and Gu Ao followed the leaders to the Ministry of Electronics Industry on the first weekend.

His current identity is a director of the Electrical Science and Technology Bureau of the Ministry of Electronics Industry.

His direct leader is the director of the Electrical Science and Technology Bureau and Director Bao.

The most important minister is the former deputy director.

As the get off work was approaching, a lesbian from the Ministry’s Personnel Bureau came over and handed Gu Ao a form: "Director Gu, I heard that you will go to Washington to continue your studies next week? Congratulations, you can fill out this application form for suspension of salary and stay, so we can help you complete the handover procedures."

"Okay, thank you, I'll give it to you next Monday." Gu Ao thanked politely.

As mentioned earlier, most of the top American universities have three admission seasons a year, and this semester must be reported before May 30.

Therefore, there is actually not much time difference since the Ministry of Electronics Industry was officially established on May 4th in China.

After seeing off the female colleague of the Human Resources, Gu Ao sat at the desk and quietly wrote the form.

Because it was almost time to get off work, many colleagues in the department froze and the office building gradually became quiet.

More than half an hour later, Gu Ao's application was almost finished. His office door was tapped gently again and then pushed open directly.

"Oh, Lao Qin, have you come back from Argentina?" Gu Ao looked up and saw that it was Qin Guogang.

Well, now strictly speaking, it is time to call me "Deputy Director Qin". In private situations where no one can still remove the word "deputy". There is no need to remind the other party that you are the deputy.

This was the first time Gu Ao saw Qin Guogang after everyone transferred to the Ministry of Electronics Industry.

"That's necessary. The ministries and commissions adjust the handover. No matter how big the matter is, they have to come back first. I have been back for more than ten days, but the handover is too busy and I have never been able to talk to you. Some of the follow-up work in Argentina can only be handed over to colleagues who have transferred to the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economics. We are not in his position, so we can do more things."

Qin Guogang's tone could not hear any fluctuations, and he didn't seem to mind the change of ownership. He just wanted to do things and was eager to make contributions.

Gu Ao was reminded by Qin Guogang, and combined with the news he had been concerned about in the past few days, he quickly noticed a problem.

It is May 8 today! But in international news, I have not heard of the Argentines going to war with the British. So far, both sides are just talking and making diplomatic statements with each other. All spectators can realize that the situation is tense, but the war has not broken out yet.

According to the original historical script, the Battle of Horse Island should have started for a week now.

It seems that it was Qin Guogang and even higher-level people who discovered the greater value behind certain trades and began to explore them deeply. Only then did they try their best to dissuade the Argentines from being impulsive for the time being?

Of course, Gu Ao was not the person involved in the reason for dissuasion, so he certainly couldn't know.

He even had no evidence to prove which foreign country dissuaded the Argentinian, maybe it was French, right? Who knows?

If Gu Ao had to think about it irresponsibly, he probably wouldn't have been too powerful for the reason for dissuasion. At most, the French said, "You are not fully prepared yet, don't be impulsive. Why not wait until my next batch of weapons is shipped to the table before taking action."

It's totally irresponsible to guess.

After Gu Ao understood this, he closed the door and asked Qin Guogang: "Argentines can listen to advice, even if it is temporary, it is a good thing. By the way, do you know whether other departments have cooperated with them?"

Qin Guogang looked contemptuous: "You ask me, I still want to ask you! You are the pride of the School of Foreign Affairs and a top student. You have so many friends in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and you often wander in front of President Liu. Do you think you are embarrassed to ask me?"

Gu Ao smiled embarrassedly: "Didn't I confirm this? If you have asked other favors for inquiries, I won't waste my favors."

While talking, Gu Ao dialed the numbers of his friends in the department and muttered for a while.

Just inquiry, not advice. (What kind of virtue, Gu Ao can do? He dare not change history. He was just pushed away by the leader's order.)

After hanging up the phone, Gu Ao said to Qin Guogang in a divine way: "It seems that some people have noticed the value of this matter. There are indeed experts in the ministry who can think of a game of chess around the world and coordinate the chips on both sides together to bargain."

This is the real diplomacy of a great power.

Just like when the United States and the Soviet Union were playing games, they never bargained on the main battlefield.

For example, after Lisboa invaded Ukraine and separating Crimea, he would not bargain with the Americans directly with Crimea. In that case, there would be insufficient chips, and no matter how much he vomited, he would feel unhappy.

The best way is to invade several more regions of Ukraine, hold Donetsk and Kharkov in your hands, and then say to the other party: If you recognize Crimea, I will return Kharkov and Donetsk to you.

It’s a bit like when the Japanese pirates invaded China, the puppet Manchukuo was unable to hold it in his hand, so he caused more trouble in North China and then made a statement with Chang Kai: You can recognize the puppet Manchukuo, and you can repay the five provinces in North China if you recognize the puppet Manchukuo.

Of course, this style of playing is too ugly after all.

A more advanced way of playing is that if there is a gap in the conditions between the two sides of the Crimean issue that cannot be bridged, so go to Syria to cause trouble, or do whatever you want in the Husse, a big dog.

Anyway, you just use small countries as general equivalents for trading, and you can get more and get less and get what you want to cut your liabilities.

Qin Guogang did not understand diplomacy as well as Gu Ao, so he asked Gu Ao, the commentator to explain: "Are there any specific trends?"

"The contact with the Brittanians seems to have begun in advance. Although the differences are still large, everyone wants to determine their intention to resolve the problem through negotiations. It is expected that there will be substantial progress in June and July. It is not easy to say much about it. Being willing to contact formally is a good omen, thanks to the mediation of the proposers."

"So, is it possible that the Argentinians will be betrayed by us in a critical moment?"

"It is necessary, what value can the Argentinians have? If you sell it, sell it. Are your inventory that has not been sold in Argentina hidden enough?"

"Absolutely secretive. Even the Monacos don't know how many moves I have left. At most, they find the first move, and then they think it's all."

"That's good. Deterrence means that you have to sit in the launch silo to have deterrence. If you attack them all, then it's not called deterrence."
