Nanhai, the capital city, is the center of the political center of this country. It is just an ordinary, slightly old and quiet villa. Mr. Ji works here. If it was just the first impression, no one would have thought that. Government orders that shocked the whole country were transmitted from here. A little bit of news flowing out from here could control the wealth and lives of tens of millions of people. It could control the prosperity and stability of a place, and it could lead to life or death.
This is what power tastes like.
Mr. Ji was leaning over the desk. His gray hair was neatly combed smoothly, and he wore a pair of reading glasses on his wrinkled old face. He held the latest government decree in his hand and read it carefully, writing two strokes from time to time. Then he gave a knowing smile, seemingly very satisfied with the decree in front of him, and his face turned into a chrysanthemum.
.
Guard Xiao Chen was standing at the door, holding a tray in his hand, which only contained simple vegetarian dishes and a large bowl of rice. From time to time, he cast his eyes on Mr. Ji who was writing at his desk with an anxious look on his face.
It's obviously lunch time, but how can Mr. Ji, who is busy with government affairs, have time to eat? The rice and vegetarian dishes were heated three or four times, and every time it was him, the guard, who was kicked out by Mr. Ji.
Things like this happen every day.
Those ordinary people never know that while they are enjoying ordinary busy lives, how much some people have paid for their seemingly ordinary lives.
Just when the guard Xiao Chen looked hesitant and troubled, Ji Tianhang, who was calm and majestic, walked in quickly from the outside. When he saw Xiao Chen standing at the door holding a tray, he not only showed a bitter smile, but also asked in a low voice, "Grandpa, don't you think it's okay?" Want to eat?”
Seeing Ji Tianhang, Xiao Chen was granted amnesty and hurriedly handed the tray to Ji Tianhang, "Yes, Consultant Ji, please hurry up and persuade Mr. Ji. He is getting older and if he keeps enduring like this, his body will not be able to bear it... Yesterday, the health care doctor also told me that I must remember to make Mrs. Ji eat on time. She is old and cannot bear such trouble."
"Well, give it to me. I'll go and persuade grandpa." Ji Tianhang took the tray and glanced at Xiao Chen. "Grandpa and I have something to discuss. You can go down first."
"Yes!" Xiao Chen bowed and left happily.
Ji Tianhang walked in with the food, went directly to Mr. Ji's desk, and placed the food in front of him.
"Tsk...didn't I tell you? I'm busy now and don't have time to eat. You can take it away first and I'll come back later..."
Without waiting for Mr. Ji to finish speaking, he raised his head and saw his grandson's cold face. He couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Tianhang, why are you here."
Ji Tianhang said with a straight face, "Why, grandpa, don't you want to see me? If I didn't come, I really don't know that you are so busy that you even skipped lunch... Look at this, you shouldn't need to be re-elected next term, right? No? It just happens that I can send you to a nursing home outside Beijing, and I will accompany you to take care of yourself until the end of your life.
! "
When his grandson got angry, Mr. Ji had to put on a smile and hurriedly lowered his head and took a few mouthfuls of rice, which made Ji Tianhang's brows relax.
"Tianhang, it's a rare time for you to come to me and tell me what happened?" Mr. Ji asked with a smile.
"It's nothing, there's just one thing I want you to know... Over there at the intelligence team, Butterfly and Ye Shen missed something." Ji Tianhang's eyes darkened, "They failed to prevent Tang Xiaoxiao from returning to China."
Mr. Ji waved his hand and said, "It's nothing. I had anticipated the failure of the mission long before I issued this order. Now that Butterfly has become famous and has a daughter and a husband, he is naturally no longer as obedient as he was in the past. Now every time he is sent to Most of her tasks are carried out in secret, and as for Yu Lingye... Humph, the Yu family has raised such a useless person who only cares about the love between his children, how can he complete the task wholeheartedly? "
"I think it's time to consider getting rid of the chess piece Butterfly." Ji Tianhang's eyes showed a cold and ruthless look, "Her rate of completing tasks over the years has been extremely low, and she has always pushed back every time a task was given to her. Especially this time... the fact that she changed the list of Oscar winners has been noticed by the FBI of country M. Her method is not clever. I have reason to suspect that as long as she is monitored and investigated a little, the CIA's Those flies will be on her soon."
Mr. Ji took a deep breath, closed his eyes lightly, and said with a hesitant look on his face, "Yes, Mero has been performing tasks for so many years, and the CIA must have targeted her. As long as she makes another move, The CIA will take action, and then... everything will be passive."
"So, my opinion is to deal with her quickly and cleanly!" Ji Tianhang slightly narrowed his eyes.
"She is a meritorious minister to the country, but she also possesses too many secrets and intelligence. If the CIA really knocks her out, it will have a very bad impact on our country's intelligence work. It will even burn down the intelligence network we have set up for decades..." Mr. Ji narrowed his eyes gently and tapped his knuckles on the table rhythmically, "In this case, we can only consider the overall situation."
Ji Tianhang smiled proudly. To consider the overall situation, you have to sacrifice yourself personally, right
After discussing this matter, Ji Tianhang accidentally glanced at the documents on Mr. Ji's desk. When he saw the big red header on it, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "Grandpa, what, are we going to lower oil tariffs?"
Mentioning this matter, Mr. Ji's face lit up with a smile, "Yes, domestic oil and gas energy is gradually depleting, and the energy reserves in Province L and Province H, two major energy-producing provinces, have dropped below the warning line. If If we can no longer find a suitable source of energy, it will have a very bad impact on the stability of the domestic situation... The current oil price is already high enough and cannot continue to rise like this. Therefore, we can only choose to import from abroad.
. ()”
Ji Tianhang had a look of awe and solemnity on his face, lowered his eyelids, and said calmly in a very calm voice, "Grandpa, have you ever thought about it? Doing energy... Today's Tang Dynasty Industry is already the most famous emerging energy company in the world. Group, they have accounted for more than 50% of domestic oil imports. How big an impact will this kind of dumping have on us? If this continues, they may completely control domestic oil imports, and by then... "
Mentioning this matter, Mr. Ji's brows showed a bit of bitterness and helplessness, "Tianhang, you only remember to guard against Tang Xiaoxiao, but have you ever really gone out among the people to see what the common people are complaining about now?"
Ji Tianhang was silent.
"I secretly went down there a few days ago and saw the lives of ordinary people. Do you know what they are scolding now?" Mr. Ji's face flashed with anger, and he knocked on the table with his hand unconsciously. A little higher, "House prices, oil prices, and medical prices! Except for some rich people, ordinary people and even well-off people don't dare to drive out with cars because they can't afford gas! They don't dare to go see a doctor if they are sick, because Hospital charges are too high! Rich people don’t dare to buy a house because they have spent most of their life’s savings and can’t even afford a toilet!”
Ji Tianhang's face showed a bit of shock.
Mr. Ji took a deep breath and said earnestly, "Tianhang, have you forgotten our ideals? We want to make this country more prosperous! Grandpa does not want you to be just a politician playing tricks, but to truly implement A good official who is really doing practical things and doing good things for the people... Power tactics and conspiracy are just a means to make the country more prosperous and the people more prosperous and prosperous. This is your ultimate goal. Grandpa hopes that you will not do it because of your means. And forget your own goals!”
Mr. Ji's words were like a revelation, leaving Ji Tianhang stunned, unable to answer for a long time.
"I have not banned Tang Dynasty Industry from entering China, because Tang Dynasty Industry's oil is purer and cheaper, which is more conducive to the steady decline of rising oil prices and more conducive to ordinary people!" Mr. Ji's voice became louder involuntarily. , those turbid eyes shined with a shining firm light, "As long as it is good for the people, I can abandon my prejudices and accept it wholeheartedly!"
Ji Tianhang had a look of impatience on his face, "But, grandpa, this is a conspiracy."
! Hong Guoguo’s conspiracy! Tang Xiaoxiao deliberately lowers the price of imported oil to impact the domestic market and maintains such a high oil import ratio. Her purpose is to use oil to threaten us and make us afraid of her and dare not take action! This is a conspiracy she had planned long ago! "
"So what?" Mr. Ji's eyes sparkled, "Although she threatened us with this move, her actions are beneficial to the country and the people, so I will accept it! No matter what her purpose is! God! Hang, please remember that as a politician, you must first put the country and the people first, followed by your own selfishness! Since she can bring rich oil resources to the country, what reason do we have to put She turned him away?"
"But, Grandpa, have you ever thought about it, what if she uses this to attack the domestic oil market and defeat the two major state-owned oil groups? This kind of dumping method... is not uncommon in the world!" Ji Tianhang retorted stubbornly.
Mr. Ji shook his head helplessly, "With the oil tariff reduction, do you think she is the only one who will invade the domestic market? The international oil giants have long regarded China as a piece of fat meat, and everyone wants to take a bite. , if Tang Xiaoxiao does this, others can do the same... Instead of trusting those oil giants, it would be better for me to trust my own people!"
Having said this, Mr. Ji's eyes suddenly softened, "I watched the Oscar awards show that day."
Ji Tianhang was stunned for a moment. He didn't know what his grandfather wanted to say. Why did he suddenly talk about Oscars from oil imports
Mr. Ji stared at his grandson meaningfully, "I guess you haven't seen it, let alone noticed... She has said one thing at the Oscars for three consecutive years, - I am a Chinese."
Ji Tianhang's body trembled suddenly!
"She stayed in the United States for four years. Judging from the intelligence agency's surveillance of her, the Immigration Service came to her no less than a hundred times in these four years, trying to persuade her to get a U.S. green card. Even the current When the federal president met her, he personally invited her to immigrate to the United States in public... She just smiled and replied that she would think about it. So, to this day, her nationality is still Chinese."
When he said this, Mr. Ji took a deep breath, "I admit, she is a stumbling block for us, and I don't want to get rid of her all the time. But on the other hand, I really admire this person who is only in his twenties. A 20-year-old girl... She always remembered that she was Chinese, and she had never done anything to disgrace the motherland."
"As for this girl, although we fight with her...but, I firmly believe in her
. I firmly believe that she will not do anything that would disgrace the country. Mr. Ji's face showed a smile of relief and satisfaction, "Now is a time of peace, but if it were the war decades ago, and heroes emerge from troubled times, her achievements would be even higher!" At that time, she will definitely become the backbone of this country and nation! "
Ji Tianhang didn't know what it was like, and he couldn't help but feel sincere admiration for his opponent Tang Xiaoxiao. Grandpa's high opinion of her was definitely not unreasonable.
She really deserves this rating because... she is a queen.
"Grandpa, I... understand." Ji Tianhang had a look of approval on his face.
Seeing his grandson's serious look, Mr. Ji felt slightly relieved, knowing that his grandson had truly listened, and nodded with satisfaction.
"By the way, grandpa, some news just came out." After finishing the topic, Ji Tianhang suddenly realized the purpose of his visit today and said quickly.
Mr. Ji looked up and was stunned, "What's the news?"
Ji Tianhang gently narrowed his eyes, and the light in his eyes flashed away, "Tang Xiaoxiao will publicly announce at an external charity dinner three days later that he will completely sever ties with the Tang family and start his own business from now on. He is known as the Hongdao Tang Family.”
"Red Island?" Mr. Ji frowned, "Where is that place?"
"It should be the disputed Feiyu Island on the southeastern coast." A strange smile appeared on Ji Tianhang's lips. "It's the island that China and Japan dispute. A few years ago, fighter jets were dispatched and almost started a fight."
"Feiyu Island?!" Mr. Ji stood up suddenly, his eyes flashing with burning eyes. A few years ago, the Feiyu Island controversy came to the fore, and the Huaxia Kingdom almost provoked a war with the Japanese Island Kingdom, but in the end it was Several superpowers in the world tried to stir things up and ended up settling the issue, but this Feiyu Island allowed the Japanese island nation to take advantage. The Chinese nation was always in a weak and unprofitable state.
Ji Tianhang couldn't hide the smile on his lips, "Yes, from the tone, it seems that Tang Xiaoxiao renamed Feiyu Island Hongdao. The most important thing is..."
