The only specialty of the rich world is to conduct personal attacks. Their group of criminals with golden light on their heads is to rob the good reputation of social groups and citizens, and to sell them in their newspapers and magazines to ignorant people...

Now, he must not let these bastards take advantage. Not only can they get a profit, but they also have to use it for their own use.

At this time, under his pen, reporters he is familiar with are constantly appearing, and then they either write exclamation marks or question marks behind their names. The exclamation mark means that the reporter can do things according to his requirements, and with a question mark, it means that the person may have some problems.

At this time, Lin Baishui knew that he had to take on his responsibilities, but as a government press secretary, the headache needed was:

"What if there are still some people looking for bones in chickens?"

Thank goodness, at least it may also inform the nation and patriotism to convince them!

"Secretary-General, time is up!"

Finally his secretary walked to him and reminded softly.

here we go!

When Lin Baishui put together the press release and walked towards the press room, he felt an unprecedented mission lingering in his heart. When he was about to enter the press room, when he saw Lu Zhengxiang about to enter the press room, facing a colleague, Lin Baishui suddenly smiled.

"Do you believe it?"

The colleague was stunned, obviously not knowing what he was talking about.

"From today, we will make history!"

Before his colleagues could react, he first opened the door and walked in after Lu Zhengxiang entered the press room.

"Why are the officials of the Presidential Palace here?"

When reporters from all over the world inside the press release room saw Lu Zhengxiang, they felt a little confused. At this time, Lin Baishui, who had just walked to the speech stage, spoke.

"Everyone, let's have a rest. Today, I invite friends from the press to come here. It is the State Council and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs that have an important decision to announce to the outside world!"

Then Lu Zhengxiang stood up and took out a piece of paper. His speech was very brief, and he could even say only a few words. In fact, some things only require a few words.

"China has been bound by unequal treaties for more than 70 years. This kind of constraint is contrary to the principle of mutual respect for sovereignty in the international community, and is also prohibited by the state. Now, when the meeting of China's completion, it should further comply with the legitimate procedures and implement the re-routing of the new contract, and use the deputy to complete the purpose of equality and mutual respect for sovereignty. Through the State Council and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, my country's current foreign exchanges should abolish the Old Testament as the core and re-rout the three principles of re-routing of the New Testament: the treaties that have expired shall be abolished and a new contract is made; those that have not yet expired shall be terminated and re-routed. If the Old Testament is expired and the New Testament is not settled, a temporary solution shall be set to deal with everything......"

As soon as Jian Zhi's speech ended, Lu Zhengxiang's mission was completed. In fact, the next thing was Lin Baishui's affairs. It was precisely because the Ministry of Foreign Affairs did not face the habits of the press that Lu Zhengxiang asked the State Council to participate in the press release.

When Lin Baishui Station arrived on the stage, he encountered an extremely stupid question at the beginning:

"Secretary-General Lin, how did the countries react when they learned that the State Council wanted to abolish the Old Testament?"

Listening to this extremely stupid question, Lin Baishui forced his temper,

"Compared with the reactions of various countries, as Chinese officials, what we need to consider more is China's interests!"

Lin Baishui's words only caused a burst of applause. As the press secretary, Lin Baishui understood that it was this kind of emotion that he needed to incite the patriotism of all Chinese people now. When patriotic passion was everywhere, public opinion could be used by the State Council, and the State Council and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs could use public opinion as bargaining chips on the negotiating table.

After answering several questions in succession, he then heard a stupid question:

"Did the abolition of the kinship convoy bring back memories of the declaration of war in the year of Gengzi?"

At that moment, Lin Baishui decided to end the press conference, and his goal had been achieved.

An hour after the press conference, Lin Baishui glanced out of his office window. At this time, the State Council was surrounded by reporters from all over the capital. Wait, fuck them, Lin Baishui thought that they would only know what he let them know. These reporters must be used by the State Council.

On the way to the State Council, Zhu Erdian looked a little excited. He didn't expect that Yuan Shikai would refuse to see him. Just yesterday, Yuan Shikai suddenly felt cold.

Yesterday, no one knew what a cold meant.

But today, when he went to the Presidential Palace, he was unable to meet with Yuan Shikai because of a cold, so he had to give up his previous plan - refusing to meet directly with the State Council. But now, he is on the way to the State Council.

"I don't think we have any room for negotiation with them on the issue of treaties, and if they try to challenge the principles that the treaty must be adhered to - then... let them taste the pain."

The minister's words made Audik, the assistant counselor, frown and said:

"Your Excellency, will this be too tough----maybe, we should be flexible."

Obviously he had his considerations. In fact, he knew that China is not China three years ago, and now the British army is completely trapped in Europe, so it is impossible to send even one company or a warship to Asia.

"I will agree to one of his requests!"

Juerdian smiled

"Today I will only talk to him about the candidates of the General Taxation Division. As for the treaty, I don't think there is anything to change, and I will disclose this to him."

After the car arrived at the State Council, they saw a large number of reporters outside the State Council. When they got off the car, the reporters took photos and raised questions, but Juerdian just repeatedly emphasized the "basic international principle" that "the treaty must be adhered to." Finally, Juerdian and Audik entered the State Council under the escort of armed guards.

Minutes later, the two British diplomats were taken to the General Office of the State Administration, while Li Zicheng met them in his office, and then shook hands and greeted them in English.

From Zhu Erdian's coldness and the remarks he made to reporters outside the world just now, Li Zicheng believed that this was a tough bone, but his face was silent and smiling.

But the other party's calmness made his heart beat sharply. Zhu Erdian vaguely realized that perhaps this time the Chinese really didn't say anything, and began to believe in the authenticity of re-constructing the new contract. It seems that the Chinese are really ready to do this.

"General - Master, I think the remarks made by your country in the morning are undoubtedly extremely inappropriate!"

Although Juerdian had already made up his mind not to talk about that matter on the way here, he suddenly changed that idea.

But Li Zicheng just smiled and said:

"As a sovereign country, I don't think there is any discomfort in making statements that are comparable to that of a country's sovereignty!"

Juerdian immediately replied:

"That remark violates the international basic principle of "the treaty must be adhered to."

After being silent for a long time, Li Zicheng put away his smile and looked at Zhu Erdian, and said sarcastically:

"What if the same treaty was pressing on Britain? How would you react?"

After asking a question, Li Zicheng said with sigh.

"Well, we respect the principle of "the treaty must be followed", but it does not mean that we do not have the authority to reconsider the old treaty and then conduct detailed discussions with the signing countries,"

Li Zicheng said this. Although he did not reveal his anger and hatred towards those unequal treaties, he definitely had a deterrent force.

"As the sovereign state of **, this is our power, and it is also the basic power of the state given by the "basic principles of internationality" mentioned by the Minister."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Zicheng pointed his hand at the office.

"If you think that the Republic of China is still the Qing Empire, then we can not negotiate on this issue. Even if you think we are an emerging country, then negotiating on the signing of treaties by the old regime is the basic obligation of China and Britain, and it is also a prerequisite for maintaining the basic international principle of "the treaty must be abide by."

This Li Zicheng!

At this moment, Zhu Erdian realized that the general manager in front of him, like those extremely difficult diplomats in the Chinese Foreign Ministry, had received complete Western education. They were cunning and difficult, understood international rules, and were good at using any international rules to serve their own interests. Zhu Erdian, who could not give any answer to Li Zicheng's statement, hesitated for a moment and took the initiative to speak:

“We think…”

He looked at Li Zicheng and said:

"We believe that the Anglian General Taxation Division should retire early."

After making an active concession and changing the topic, Zhu Erdian said just now:

"However, we require that the next General Taxation Division must be appointed as agreed in the terms of the Treaty of 1898, with no room for negotiation on this issue."

Zhu Erdian took the initiative to show goodwill, but Li Zicheng sneered in his heart, then nodded in agreement:

"Mr., we have never denied the validity of the treaty."

Then his face turned cold again.

"The decision to dismiss Angeles was made by the decision it made as a foreign official hired by the Chinese government and rejected the executive order of the Chinese government. There was no room for negotiation on the decision that the Chinese government had to dismiss him!"

What a joke, the purpose of dismissing Anglian was to kill the chicken to show the monkey and let him resign with a decent amount. What's the point?

"Does it have to be like this?"

"The British government will not allow civil servants who refuse to implement government executive orders to resign decently!"

"But you have to take into account the decency of a gentleman."

"Compared with the decency of a gentleman, as the general manager of China, what I need to consider is the authority of the country. Could it be that the Minister, I think that the decency of a British man is more important than the authority of China?"

Zhu Erdian, who was completely blocked by a word, was a little contemptuous in his heart, and even looked at Li Zicheng with resentment. He did not expect that the other party was so ignorant. If it were officials from the Qing Dynasty, they would even accept this suggestion happily. They would happily think that for the country, it was already the most decent thing.

But now... Despite his dissatisfaction, Jurden cannot express the decency of a British man, which is more important than the authority of China's state, otherwise that remark would be enough to make London withdraw him.

"certainly,"

Smiling awkwardly, Zhu Erdian nodded and praised while sneering in his heart.

Don't think about making any progress here in the UK!
