Chapter 1305

Early in the morning, before dawn, Zhou yingyao went out.

Northern Europe is a region with extremely bad environment. What is particularly intolerable is the length of day and night. Most of the time in a year, it's more night than day. For Swedes and Norwegians, it's most common. However, it doesn't mean comfort, especially for foreigners like Zhou yingyao, if possible, He doesn't usually go out early and come back late.

It's not only dark in the morning, but also very cold. Of course, you can wear thick clothes on your body, and your face and ears suffer.

Today, however, Zhou yingyao has shown no hesitation.

When he arrived at Hilton, he called Yang Rui in advance and took the elevator.

Knocking on the door, Yang Rui greets Zhou yingyao in his pajamas and says, "sorry, I just got up and didn't have time to change my clothes."

"It doesn't matter. I came too early." Zhou yingyao had an appointment with Yang Rui last night. At this time, he sat on the sofa in the suite with a smile.

Hilton's suite is not big, just a bedroom and a small living room mode, but also completely beyond the consumption level of domestic cadres.

Zhou yingyao put the heat preservation bucket and box on the tea table, looked at the room, and said: "tofu and fried dough sticks, I asked the canteen to prepare them in advance, they should still be hot."

He opened the thermos bucket filled with bean curd, and sure enough, he saw the steaming heat inside.

Zhou yingyao fanned his hands in mid air, smelled the taste, took a deep breath, and then sighed: "it's very good, no problem, it's the taste of bean curd. Alas, look at me, once you say you eat bean curd, you'll be homesick. Come on, I'll ladle it for you. Do you eat sweet or salty?"

When Zhou yingyao suddenly asked a serious question, Yang Rui hesitated for a moment and said, "spicy."

"There are spicy ones, too. I've brought them all." Zhou yingyao made a bowl of bean curd for Yang Rui with a spoon, and then made a bowl for himself. Then he sighed and said, "you don't know how hard it was to eat a bowl of bean curd when we first arrived in Sweden. By the way, you may not know that the bean curd is made by the staff of our embassy. "

"Did you grind it yourself?" Yang Rui tasted it in surprise, nodded and said, "it's really delicious."

"No, it's the tradition of our embassy to grind tofu, which has been practiced from generation to generation. When the museum was first built, some people wanted to eat a mouthful of tofu, but they couldn't find it in Stockholm, so they went to the local Chinese and bought a mouthful of graphite. When we had time, we used manual grinding instead. " Zhou yingyao said with a smile, "when every Ambassador comes, we will introduce our stone mill to him. Some ambassadors will take the time to grind it in person."

Zhou yingyao stopped for a moment and said, "when Ambassador Ling Zhiming arrived at the embassy, we told the story of graphite. Later, he came here once, but after a few grinding, the meaning left. However, he still likes to eat bean curd, once or twice a week. "

"Ambassador Ling went to Chad. I don't know if I can buy soybeans." Yang Rui has a leisurely mind. He is not satisfied with the ambassador.

Ling Zhiming agreed to his request and let him relax his vigilance. As a result, when he arrived in Stockholm, he became an orphan, almost causing huge losses. In fact, he has caused considerable losses. Yang Rui's plan has been delayed, and even the plan itself has been revised.

To be honest, Yang Rui doesn't know what Ling Zhiming's real idea is now, because he didn't see Ling Zhiming and the information he got came from others. Compared with the information brought by Zhou yingyao, the accuracy of the information provided by Wang Kuo is lower.

However, no matter what Ling Zhiming's real idea is, it doesn't matter. Chad is in the middle of Africa. It's very poor and has been in war all the year round. Its political state can be described as an unruly underworld with a name boss. The gangs gathered in various names fight repeatedly, using both big blades and AK47. The construction level of its capital is basically equal to that of the villages and towns in inland China, which is inferior to that of Xibao town.

For ordinary officials, diplomacy in such a country is likely to light up the corresponding political future. However, Ling Zhiming, who is looking forward to retirement, is not very happy.

Yang Rui thinks that the leadership of the ministries and commissions is quite interesting. Since Ling Zhiming can avoid things for the sake of a stable life, he is not wasting his talent by letting him continue to hide in an unstable place.

Zhou yingyao paid attention to Yang Rui's expression. Seeing that he followed him to Chad, he immediately confirmed Yang Rui's tendency. Following Yang Rui's words, he said: "ambassador Ling really doesn't like to take charge of affairs. He likes to push boats with the current. In Chad, I don't know if I can handle it. "

"There are frequent wars in Chad, and being smooth is more important than doing things." Yang Rui gave a light evaluation, which is also an evaluation of Ling Zhiming.Zhou yingyao knew clearly in his heart that he would not say more, and then he advised: "you try this fried dough sticks, don't mention it. It's easy to make fried dough sticks at home. After you go abroad, you can't even find the right flour. The foreigner's noodles are more vigorous. It's tired to knead. The fried dough sticks are not delicious. We finally bought flour exported from the United States. "

Zhou yingyao laughed at himself and said: "in Sweden, American food is cheaper and synonymous with junk fast food."

Yang Rui took a bite of fried dough sticks, and it really has a domestic flavor. When he was abroad, the flavor of his hometown is the best. Yang Rui put up his thumb, swallowed the fried dough sticks, and said, "you are really good. En, just a moment, I'll call Jing Yulan to eat together."

He didn't ask Zhou yingyao for advice, so he called.

After a while, Jing Yulan, who was wearing casual clothes, knocked on the door and came in. Her face was a little red, but she was still calm.

"Try it. It's almost the same as what we ate in the capital. It's not long before we get used to their taste." Yang Rui shakes his head and personally installs bean curd for Jing Yulan.

No matter how silly Zhou yingyao was, he knew that Yang Rui and Jing Yulan were closely related. However, he didn't mean to evaluate them. On the contrary, he was happy that Yang Rui didn't avoid him and invited Jing Yulan to trust him. Therefore, Zhou yingyao's tone was bolder and said, "Director Yang, do you know the new ambassador, Ambassador Cao DACAO?"

"No, do you?"

"My father-in-law has an old relationship with him, maybe he can lead the line." Zhou yingyao takes the initiative to release his relationship line and hands it to Yang Rui.

Yang Rui raised his head and said with a smile, "that's very kind. I wanted to ask Guo Wei how to contact him. It's best if you know him. I'll ask you to introduce me then."

"No problem. I'll invite him if I can." Zhou yingyao thought: "our favorite food in Sweden is Chinese food, followed by French food. Occasionally, there are banquets held by the French Embassy, and everyone is willing to go there. How about French food? When Ambassador Cao comes from the Consulate in Marseilles, he may still be missed. "

He knew that Yang Rui had money, so he didn't save it for him.

Yang Rui shook his head and said, "we can't wait that long. When Ambassador Cao comes, there will be a dinner party. We will meet at the dinner party. By the way, if your embassy wants to have a good dinner party, you can invite more people from all walks of life in Sweden to come. This is more natural and not abrupt. "

Zhou yingyao suddenly appeared what his father-in-law said to himself yesterday: "the benefits of a new ambassador.".

Zhou yingyao doubted whether Yang Rui regarded the value of the new ambassador as a dinner party.

However, looking at Yang Rui's success, Zhou yingyao felt very strange, so he said: "director Yang, you have a great reputation in China, and you must have achieved what you want in foreign countries..."

"In a few years, maybe. Of course, it's up to people." Yang Rui is quite confident indeed.

It should be said that the good domestic situation gives Yang Rui a lot of room to move. Let him gather more resources and gain more support, for example, what Ambassador Cao Da wants to transfer from Marseille, because he has always been a group of people who support domestic research and support local scientists' indigenous innovation. During his tenure, he also organized many exhibitions and performances of domestic artists abroad. He was not only an innovator, but also experienced in practical operation.

It is also the result of Yang Rui's reputation accumulated over the years that he can invite such a person to be transferred to Sweden to escort himself.

Reputation can't be seen or touched, but when it comes to scenery, it can play a role.

Before Wang Mang usurped power, he could get the support of the government and the public. After he usurped power, he could get the support of the government and the public. What variables have changed? It's prestige.

Over the years, Yang Rui has not only made practical achievements, but also won a large number of supporters.

Besides, the young and old men in the Deling group helped Yang Rui a lot. After their return from Deling farm, after three or four years of development, some of them have regained their previous power and even made some progress. Some of them, even though they have left the field, can still exert great influence. Their gratitude to Yang Rui is not only out of their own heart, but also out of a collective will - helping Yang Rui is the collective will of all the people who have returned from Deling farm, To go along with this thinking is to contribute to the group of Deling. To go against this thinking is to deviate from the collective course.

If Yang Rui is in politics, the old and young men of the Deling group may be more reserved, but when he enters the academic circle, he is still doing a good job, so everyone has no scruples to help, not to mention that Yang Rui is very good at being a man, never making them difficult, and often has rewards.

Besides, Yang Rui's reputation in Peking University and Academy of Sciences is also very good.The academic circles in China regard Beijing as the most important place. The troika of the academic circles in Beijing is Peking University, Tsinghua University and Chinese Academy of Sciences, without exception.

In such an environment, Yang Rui can form a great power if he stirs up a little agitation.

80 S is the last elite era in China. Poets can go to the whole country shouting "dark night gives me black eyes". Peking University students can also hold up the banner of "Hello Xiao Ping" and cross Tiananmen. Mou Zhong shouts "chisel through the Himalayas" to travel all over China. The so-called power of leading sleeves makes this era turbulent, Become bright and gorgeous

And this gathered strength also paved the way for Yang Rui.

There is no other era that needs Nobel Prize to prove itself more than China in the 1980s.
