Chapter 1103 Wang Rongchang's Retirement Home
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month was discussed. Chu Rongchang from Taiwan and his uncle and nephew Chu Shihan flew to Dingzhou to visit Fan Wubing.
Fan Wubing had always warmly welcomed these two Taiwanese entrepreneurs with whom he had always had a good relationship. This time when he picked them up at the airport, he even specially invited the person in charge of the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council to show his attention.
In fact, as the vice-chairmen of the Straits Exchange Foundation, Wang Rongchang and Wang Shihan's uncle and nephew also have relatively large influence on the island of Taiwan. It also played a very key role in promoting the cross-strait mini-three links and direct flights, so the person in charge of the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council believes. He accompanied Fan Wubing to the airport to greet them. It’s not a self-depreciation either.
However, as soon as he received Wang Rongchang and Wang Shihan, the old man said to Fan Wubing, "I have resigned as the Vice Chairman of the Straits Exchange Foundation."
Fan Wubing was confused by these words, so he asked Wang Rongchang what happened?
According to Fan Wubing's long-standing observation, Wang Rongchang is a man of great wealth. Although he seemed like he was easy to get along with, he obviously had a lot of ideas in his heart, that is, Fan Wubing got along well with him. Moreover, both parties have common business interests and treat each other with sincerity, which is why we have achieved today's achievements.
If it weren't for the engineers Wang Rongchang and Wang Shihan's uncle and nephew brought from Taiwan at that time, Fan's chip industry would obviously have to take some more detours to get on the right track. After all, the technical talents that the Wang family has reserved in this area are all experienced veterans, which is of great significance.
After asking about it, I found out that the old man had been ostracized by the A-Bian authorities, and he refused in anger.
The main mission of the SEF is to carry out technical and transactional work in cross-strait non-governmental exchanges entrusted by the Taiwan authorities! Including the collection and verification of entry and exit of compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, and the verification and delivery of documents in mainland China. The repatriation of cross-strait prisoners, the mediation and settlement of economic and trade disputes, the communication of academic and cultural exchanges, etc.
Therefore, the SEF can be regarded as an intermediary agency between the Taiwan authorities and the mainland.
In fact, the SEF is responsible to the Legislative Yuan of the Taiwan authorities through the Mainland Committee of the Executive Yuan of the Taiwan authorities, and is also supervised by the National Assembly of Taiwan. Most of its funding sources come from government appropriations, with a small amount coming from donations from the business community.
The SEF takes the form of a corporate foundation, and its funds are jointly donated by the government and the private sector. When it was established, its positioning was to coordinate and handle matters related to people's exchanges between Taiwan and the mainland, and to protect the rights and interests of the people of both countries. for the purpose of profit.
Wang Rongchang was able to serve as the vice-chairman of the SEF at that time. In fact, it was because the old man was from another province and had a strong will for the cause of peaceful reunification. Therefore, he donated a lot of money and took on important positions personally. .
However, A-Bian's perverse behavior since he came to power really made the old man feel very angry.
Especially this year. The A-Bian authorities are frantically carrying out separatist activities in the international arena and engaging in so-called offensive diplomacy. In an attempt to break through the limitations of the one-China framework and implement substantive reforms.
This year, Abian and others went to Senegal, Sao Tome and Principe, Malawi and Swaziland in Africa for the third time during his term of office. The top leader's overseas visits are an annual diplomatic activity carried out by the Taiwan authorities, aiming to stabilize those limited and unstable diplomatic allies. The A-Bian authorities focused more on border crossing. This is an attempt to enhance substantive relations with some important countries and highlight Taiwan's international presence as a sovereign and independent country.
After A-Bian succeeded in passing through New York last year, he overestimated his ability and thought that he could extend this achievement to European and Asian countries. Since the beginning of the year, the Taiwan authorities have launched various research activities in full swing. Relevant people have frequently traveled to Europe and Southeast Asia, and have selected a few countries to vigorously research and obtain their consent for A-Bian to transit on his way to and from Africa.
However, no country agreed, and the Taiwan authorities had to amend the itinerary and cancel transit arrangements before A-Bian left.
Planning high-level vacations to non-diplomatic countries is also an important means for the Taiwan authorities to break the so-called diplomatic ice and enhance substantive official relations with non-diplomatic countries.
Start at the beginning of the year. The Taiwan authorities have instructed the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the National Security Council to follow the policy of doing whatever it takes as long as they can get out. Actively planning for A Bian and other high-level officials to go on vacation to Southeast Asia, and compiled huge funds for confidential activities.
Under the guise of vacation, Lu Xiulian broke into Indonesia with a three-million-ton natural gas purchase contract, thinking she could knock on Indonesia's door.
As a result, Indonesian President Habibie contacted Fan Wubing as soon as he learned the news and asked how the matter should be handled.
Before Fan Wu Bing could react, people from the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs rushed over and asked Fan Wu Bing to exert influence on the Indonesian government, especially President Habibie, and stop Annette Lu.
Considering his political influence, Fan Wubing did not agree directly. However, he immediately expressed to President Habibie that he hoped that he would respect the wishes of the mainland and not do anything that would affect the relations between the two countries.
Habibie was naturally concerned about this, so he instructed his subordinates to never let Annette Ann come to Jakarta.
Annette Lu was refused entry at Jakarta Airport and had to go to the Indonesian resort island of Bali.
Originally, this matter should be forgotten, but Lu Xiulian humiliating herself once was not enough. She felt a little unbalanced in her heart. Why did she arrange all the embarrassing things for me?
So she tried her best to encourage Ah Bian, saying that her popularity and influence were not enough. If President Ah Bian went there, he would be treated differently.
A-Bian still had a high opinion of herself and couldn't resist Lu Xiulian's urging. After many days of planning by the relevant departments, she confidently went to Indonesia for vacation.
The result is naturally the same. For this reason, the Indonesian Ministry of Foreign Affairs also made a special statement, clearly stating that leaders of the Taiwan authorities are not welcome to visit Indonesia in any way, and leaders of the Taiwan authorities are never welcome to Indonesia.
As a result, the A-Bian administration's vacation diplomacy was completely shattered. He was in such a state of embarrassment that he was ridiculed on the island as a flesh-and-blood diplomacy and a stow-away diplomacy, which resulted in humiliation for himself.
However, it is clear that the two of them have not given up. Stimulated by various factors such as becoming official members of the ... On the one hand, it continues to win support from the United States, and on the other hand, it expands its lobbying countries to Europe and Japan. Even South Korea, in addition to urging the parliaments of various countries to raise the tone of support, the focus of the Taiwan authorities has obviously turned to the administrative authorities of various countries, in an attempt to convert the support of the United States, Japan, and Europe for Taiwan's entry into the fertilizer industry from verbal statements to action support.
At the same time, the Taiwan authorities also induced Nicaragua and other 14 countries to jointly send a letter to their delegations to the United Nations to support Taiwan's application to become an observer at the World Health Assembly.
However, Taiwan cannot join international organizations that are justified by sovereignty. This is a shame for the vast majority of countries that pursue a China policy. Heart. At the World Health Assembly. Not only the United States, Japan, Britain and other major countries have remained silent. France also publicly expressed its opposition, and Spain even twice opposed Taiwan's proposal, once on behalf of its own country and once as the EU's rotating president on behalf of the fifteen EU countries.
As a result, the proposal by a few countries that Taiwan join the WHO as an observer was not included in the agenda of this year's World Health Assembly at all.
Maintaining a certain number of diplomatic allies is related to Taiwan's legitimacy as a sovereign country and has always been the focus of the Taiwan authorities' diplomatic activities. After the A-Bian administration came to power, Taiwan's economy declined sharply, and gold-dollar diplomacy became increasingly stretched. Under the current situation where money means diplomatic relations that cannot be changed, the diplomatic relations between the Taiwan authorities and the existing less than 30 small and poor countries have been directly affected.
This year, many small countries have embraced the mainland and severed relations with Taiwan. There has been news about unstable diplomatic relations with Africa. While the A-Bian authorities deceive themselves by claiming that Taiwan's foreign relations focus on quality rather than quantity, and it doesn't matter if the number of countries that have diplomatic relations with Taiwan is reduced, they continue to spend more money to consolidate diplomatic relations.
The four major DPP leaders successively visited Africa and diplomatic countries in Central and South America, bringing money and goods with them. A total of US$500 million was spent on the three visits. In addition, there is a secret diplomatic budget of about 60 million US dollars, which is specially used to consolidate existing diplomatic relations.
"Then does this have anything to do with you, old man?" Fan Wubing asked curiously after hearing the old man Wang Rongchang's complaints.
"Of course it has something to do with it!" Wang Rongchang replied, "A-Bian and the others are so angry that they can't vent their anger, so naturally they want to criticize. I am one of the people in the SEF who have the best relationship with the mainland. , I will naturally be suppressed, so when I get angry, I will simply resign! I plan to settle in mainland China, buy a house in Suzhou or Hangzhou, and prepare for retirement!”
Fan Wubing took a look at the old man's mood, and it turned out to be very bad, so he thought about it and said, "That's it! Then you don't need to worry about it. I will buy a house for you in Suzhou or Hangzhou, but Forget it, land is now owned by the state and private individuals cannot buy it. At most, I can give you a garden villa with a natural wetland and a small pond. "
After hearing this, the old man agreed, and then asked, "Do you have any good suggestions?"
Fan Wubing didn't have any clear opinions for a while, but then he thought about it. I thought of a place, so I asked the person next to me, "What kind of Xixi is there in Hangzhou? It is said to have beautiful scenery?"
Someone next to me immediately replied, "Xixi, the scenery is very beautiful!"
Wang Rongchang is impatient. After hearing this, I immediately asked someone to get information about Xixi, Hangzhou.
Fan Wubing then introduced the people from the Taiwan Affairs Office to Wang Rongchang. The two sides said hello and then rushed to the hotel.
By the time they arrived at the hotel, washed up and prepared to eat, Fan Wubing's men had already brought over travel information about Xixi and put it on the wall of the hotel room with a projector for everyone to see.
Hangzhou has always had several popular places to appreciate plum blossoms, such as Lingfeng and Mt. In the mid-Ming Dynasty, Xixi, Lingfeng and Gushan were listed as the three major plum blossom viewing places in Hangzhou. By the Qing Dynasty, exploring plum blossoms in Xixi had become one of the eighteen scenic spots in West Lake.
Watch plum blossoms in Xixi. The most charming place is to watch the plum blossoms on the water, paddle a boat to explore the plum blossoms, and ride under the plum trees when the flowers bloom in early spring. Diffuse like snow.
Paddling into the West Creek. In addition to the plum trees that can be seen protruding from the shore along the waterway from time to time, the Xixi Plum Villa in the southeastern part of the wetland has a concentration of all kinds of plum blossoms. Walking along the waterway west of Meishu from south to north and crossing Chunxin Bridge, you can see plum blossoms all over the mountains and plains. After landing and climbing up the stairs, there are two grass-roofed buildings. Moving forward, you can see Xingmei Garden and Hongmeiwu. Xingmei Garden is the highest point on the slope of Meishu, where you can lean on the plum trees and look far into the distance; Hongmeiwu uses plum trees as a fence to recreate old life scenes.
It has always been a tradition for Hangzhou people to go outing in Xixi in spring. At this time, the Xixi Wetland is as green as blue, the flowers are blooming like fire, and it is full of life everywhere. Whether walking on the grassy beach or riding a boat on the blue waves, it will make people feel refreshed.
It's time to eat. Interested tourists can find a flower bush by the water, with the blue sky as the roof, green grass as the blanket, flowers as the screen, insects and birds as the company, and spread out the prepared picnic cloth. Take out the various delicacies brought from home. Having a picnic under the flowers with unique flavor will definitely increase people's interest and appetite.
In the projection, a three-acre fish pond is surrounded by the smoke and water fishing village. Along the way, a few unknown plants are floating with fragrance. There are several teahouses in the village. They are all transformed from the original two-story wooden houses of farmers. The small buildings are built by the water, combining tea tasting and lake viewing.
Xixi Water Pavilion winds along the open water bank, crossing two small bridges to the water pavilion, and the scenery along the way opens and closes, changing in an orderly manner. Bamboo forests and willow smoke, screens cover.
The wall of the water pavilion, the lower gable is rammed earth wall, and the upper part is a woven bamboo mud wall with exposed beams, with a strong rural atmosphere. There is a pier on the east and west sides, and a small pavilion on each bank to facilitate tourists to get on and off and rest.
A stone slab bridge connects the east and west banks. Climbing up to the Xixi Water Pavilion, you can see the endless green peaks in the distance, and hear the gentle waves hitting the shore. There are pink peaches and green willows on the shore, and layers of waves in the water. The water pavilion is stacked on the water and lives because of the water, showing the infinite interest of the fusion of pavilion and water.
"Although there is no weak water for three thousand miles. It's not that immortals don't come. It's really a good place!" After seeing it, Wang Rongchang's eyes were straight, and Li Xuan clapped his hands and exclaimed, "Mr. Fan, I've decided to live here!"
Fan Wubing nodded. "No problem, I will arrange for someone to prepare it immediately. It would be great if there is a ready-made one, but if there is none, we can start right away and it will be completed in a few months. What style of architecture do you like, Mr. Wang?"
"It should be more natural. You can't put a reinforced concrete building in such a beautiful scenery to spoil the scenery, right? The old man's mood immediately improved, and he said with a smile.
Fan Wubing agreed. Then he arranged for someone to greet the people in Hangzhou to see if there is a suitable residence. If they can't find it, then they can only start construction temporarily.
However, he is not worried about whether there are plans to open a residence there. After all, as a privileged class, his investment projects in Hangzhou are enough for the municipal government to give him a green light.
In fact, as far as Wang Rongchang is concerned, he deserves this privilege. The old man has done a lot of useful things for the great cause of cross-strait unification, but there is no need to publicize it everywhere in this episode.
The first update of Yinri is sent to one, one by one.
