Chapter 1865 - 1865:
Not to mention anything else, just this one military procurement order from the Wale Republic to the US arms dealers has already caused a huge stir!
First of all, Myanmar and other neighboring countries of the Wale Republic indeed hold opposing views, especially the former. As for the latter countries, after some diplomatic statements, they had nothing more to say.
Myanmar is truly something else—jumping up and down to curse, and at the routine meetings of the United Nations, their representative yelled at the Wale Republic's representative as if about to spew food, accusing the Wale Republic of ignoring the security of surrounding countries, blindly strengthening military power, and questioning their intentions. Are they walking the path of expansion by force?
Secondly, Eastern Pot, which borders Changnan State with the Wale Republic, also issued a stern warning through its military spokesperson, urging the Wale Republic to stop at the edge of the cliff and not to lift a stone only to drop it on their own foot, intentionally creating regional instability and intensifying uncertain situations. It advises the Wale Republic to focus on its economy and people's livelihood, instead of resorting to military adventurism and wasting public resources.
Lastly, even Evil Luo Shi joined in, agreeing with Eastern Pot's stance, accusing the Wale Republic of excessively inflating its military budget, thus making regional peace unstable.
Unfortunately, for all these countries, the Wale Republic is fully prepared to respond: First, as an emerging republic, without strong national defense and military power, how can we safeguard the fruits of Wale's century-old revolution? How can we bring a sense of security to our country and people?
Second, the Wale Republic's constitution is clear that the country is committed to a path of peaceful coexistence on the international stage, making more friends and fewer enemies, and not actively inciting armed conflicts and wars, while actively participating in tasks to maintain world peace. The constitution cannot be violated, unlike some countries that amend it at will to satisfy some people's desire to have their way!
Third, countries that do not have diplomatic relations with the Wale Republic have no right to criticize Wale. Wale's people are walking their own path of national defense. These countries have no business pointing fingers! Such countries should reflect on themselves, being inherently aggressive yet criticizing others?
Fourth, is it because some major countries are displeased that Wale signed agreements with US arms dealers instead of procuring military equipment from them? If you're dissatisfied, just say it, okay? And also, look at your own level of military equipment before disparaging others, alright?
Well, when it comes to verbal sparring, the Valle People are indeed formidable! After all, the entire cadre of civil servants in economic, political, and cultural services is a motley crew of elite talents from various nations, and they are truly battle-ready.
In this wave of events around strengthening the military and the nation, the Wale Republic still comes out on top. Some major countries continue to make fools of themselves internationally!
On the contrary, Myanmar, after jumping and cursing a bunch, turned around and bought airplanes, missiles, and warships from Eastern Pot, spending quite a bit of money! Eastern Pot, on the other hand, felt balanced and comfortable, gaining some profit.
Of course, Liu Zhizhong really looks down on those useless pieces of scrap metal they bought. With a glowing facade, how strong can they be when it comes to actual use? If they were really that strong, wouldn't they have already reclaimed so-and-so?
Such major countries can still intimidate small countries like Myanmar. After all, when it comes to head count, Myanmar can't match up, haha...
The world, sometimes it's quite adorable. Politicians just hurl verbal abuses, afterward, the strong can continue doing whatever they want, while the weak can only win by maintaining a hard front.
So here it is, in order to safeguard national security and people's safety, and to maintain regional peace and stability, the Wale Republic directly placed a $100 billion US dollar first order for military procurement. Well, the treasury is full, money is abundant...
Founding Father Chi Zhongshui is truly outstanding, who else but him?
Not to mention, before concluding his visit to the United States, he was invited to give a speech at the US Congress.
A young man barely over thirty, delivered a brilliant speech at the US Congress, on peace and development, democracy and freedom, economics and livelihood, winning a whole room of applause.
Such a speech was also broadcast worldwide, causing a sensation, just like his previous speech and debate in the British Parliament.
This time, his speech in the US once again brought global attention to Chi Zhongshui, such a young, insightful political youth leader, conquering the world!
Moreover, Liu Zhizhong made the cover of Time Magazine, and also appeared on the big screen in Times Square for two full days.
Of course, on the Times Square big screen, Liu Zhizhong also endorsed the state-owned enterprises of the Wale Republic, directly boosting the reputation and business of several major state-owned enterprises.
Furthermore, after concluding his Congress speech, the details of Wale Republic's state-owned enterprises listing in the United States were agreed upon. Once the news was out, the stock prices of these state-owned enterprises rose again.
In addition, the newly emerged stock market in the Wale Republic received consecutive trading halt increases, flourishing wonderfully...
This is the benefit of leaving everything to the market; this is the benefit of contracts and freedom, alas...
After Liu Zhizhong visited the colleagues at the UN delegation, he embarked on the journey back to the Wale Republic.
This time, President Old Landen personally escorted him to the airport.
At the airport, Old Landen held Liu Zhizhong's hand, his silver hair fluttering, resembling a kind elder.
He spoke in his magnetic voice, still discussing with Liu Zhizhong the values of democracy and freedom. Liu Zhizhong, in his fluent English, conversed very congenially with the old man!
Finally, when Liu Zhizhong was about to board the plane, the other party still clasped his hand, saying, "Mr. Chi Zhongshui, the world of democracy is ours, it's yours, and it belongs to all of humanity. But ultimately, it still belongs to young people like you and all of humanity. Perhaps, democracy isn't the best, but for now, it's the most suitable. I have grown old, and in two years, I will retire. The world will be yours to create and lead. May God be with us."
Liu Zhizhong was momentarily stunned, then said, "Your Excellency Landen, you are in good health, exceptionally so, why not run for re-election?"
Landen softly whispered in Liu Zhizhong's ear, "Can't do it, the prostate issue is quite severe, can't hold out anymore!"
After saying this, he still smiled nonchalantly, not feeling any shame in discussing his health condition.
Liu Zhizhong also laughed, saying, "It's not a problem, trust in modern medicine. This issue will be around for some years, wishing you well."
"I've been thinking of trying this Eastern Medicine that Eastern Pot mentioned, they say it's the wisdom of the ancestors, hahaha..."
"Hahaha... still, it's modern medicine..."
The old man's and young man's laughter was captured in the cameras of accompanying journalists, and even made it to the headlines of major news outlets worldwide. After all, seeing an elder statesman and a young politician chat and laugh, representing Western and Eastern political styles and achievements, such a parting and interaction at the airport presents such a harmonious picture, doesn't it?
