Rebirth of the 92 Business Tycoon

"Over there is Capitol Hill," Buchanan said, pointing to the tall Gothic tower on the hill in the distance.

This is naturally not HSD’s Parliament Hill. The tallest building on Parliament Hill is the Gothic tower that can be seen almost everywhere in the city. The maple leaf flag is flying high. This is Canada’s Parliament Hill. Feng Yiping and the others just arrived, which is a city 400 kilometers away from Toronto, the second largest city in Ontario and the capital of Canada, Ottawa.

It must be said that at least domestically, like Australia, another Commonwealth country, the capital of Canada is also really not well-known.

This may also be related to the low frequency of this country’s domestic news broadcasts.

Speaking of Canada, the first, and perhaps all, impression of the Chinese people is that of Dr. Bethune, a communist fighter.

The reason is mainly because there are too few trade exchanges between the two countries.

Speaking of it, trade between Canada and the country actually started very early, at least before the United States. As early as that time, wheat from Canada had become a life-saving ration for many people in the country.

However, with Nixon’s visit to China in 1972, the Sino-US relations that had been interrupted for more than 20 years were restored, and Sino-US trade was also reopened. Canada, a country with the United States in North America and a land area similar to that of China In terms of trade, we got up early and ended up with a late episode, which became less and less important and was quickly squeezed out of my country’s top ten trading partners.

Speaking of it, this is also the sad part of Canada. The United States is by its side, so that it cannot escape its dependence on the United States economically.

"You only need to show up," Buchanan said. "You know, even if you give them a face,"

"No problem," Feng Yiping agreed readily.

Regardless of whether it is in the East or the West, these politicians take face seriously, and as their company expands step by step and their influence increases step by step, there will be more and more people who will name them and hope they can come forward. Participate in the talks.

This is also for the benefit of the company, it doesn't matter.

"Mr. Perret, do you?" Feng Yiping asked Buchanan, pointing to his face, "you know,"

This concern mainly came from some of his later experience. At that meeting, Canada was not friendly to China. It often worked with the country and accused us of human rights for no reason, and met the old lama who was in India. , Openly support some so-called domestic democracy activists...

Some are annoying, and some are like being left out and wanting to get attention.

This is not a joke. Among the major powers in the world, the heads of government did not visit China during their first term of office. Only Canada. I don’t know what their wishes are, but we seem to be really indifferent.

For the development of the company, Feng Yiping is willing to lay down, but this certainly does not include accepting discrimination from some people.

"Canada is a multi-ethnic country and there is no discrimination," Buchanan said.

However, familiar with the nature of these politicians, he immediately added, "As long as the support for'green' is generous enough, other colors will not be a problem."

The so-called green is naturally the color of the dollar, and other colors naturally refer to Feng Yiping's skin tone.

"That's good,"

There is no precedent for free help by politicians at home and abroad, but in China, many officials who reach out put the benefits into their pockets. In a parliamentary country like Canada, politicians generally seek benefits for voters.

The symbol of Canada, the Parliament Building, is located on Parliament Hill in Ottawa, overlooking the Ottawa River. It consists of three Victorian Gothic buildings and a large green square.

On Wellington Avenue opposite it, there are clusters of important buildings such as the Federal Government Building, the Judicial Building, the Supreme Court, and the Central Bank, so this area is the political heart of Canada.

This building, which was built in 1859, suffered a fire in 1916. Only the library at the back and the northwest wing survived. It was quickly rebuilt on the original site and completed in 1922. Because of the age, The stone on the wall is a little black when you look closely, it can be said to have a sense of history, or it can be said that it seems that it is not well maintained.

Under the leadership of an assistant of Congressman Pelette, Feng Yiping and his party walked through the square. In the center of the square, it was built to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the founding of Canada. It was lit on New Year's Eve in 1967 and stopped slightly by the long open flame that has not been extinguished.

This is a bit interesting, it seems that the fire is burning in a puddle of water, and the fire and water blend together.

Buchanan said that underwater is natural gas from Alberta.

Feng Yiping looked at the some serious assistant to the parliamentarian in front, and asked Buchanan in a low voice, "Why are the roofs here green?"

He has been holding back this question for a long time.

It looks good, and it is a symbol of national power. Why is there such an unconventional color on the top of the head?

…………

Canadian Rep. Pallet is a short man, less than 1.7 meters tall, with a blessed figure, golden hair, and a pair of tortoiseshell glasses. He is about 50% and the muscles on his neck are obviously loosened.

Like all politicians, he did not greet Feng Yiping and his party at the door of the office in the central area of ​​the Capitol. Instead, he waited in his office. As soon as Feng Yiping entered the door, he saw this man reaching out and walking. "You must be Feng, nice to meet you!"

"It's an honor to meet you, Chairman Perret,"

Pelette, who he made a special visit today, is the chairman of the Standing Committee on National Security and Defense Security of the House of Representatives of Canada.

At present, NEXTDOOR in Canada, although the main promotion of social functions, but if the prominent safety aspect can be highlighted like in the United States, it will naturally add points to the promotion, and to do this, it is best to get the support of people like Perret This is the purpose of Feng Yiping's visit today.

The opportunity to meet this time is for Buchanan on behalf of NEXTDOOR to set up the Canadian headquarters in the constituency of Councilor Pellet in Toronto, and promise to provide at least 300 more jobs, and sponsor Pellet Councilor's ongoing project. In exchange for.

Here we have to talk about the parliamentary system. Many countries in the world have a two-chamber system, the House of Representatives and the Senate.

The members of the House of Representatives (Members of Representatives) are all directly elected by the country; while the members of the Senate (Senators) are not necessarily, some are elected by local institutions (such as the United States), some are hereditary (such as the United Kingdom), and some are nominated by the prime minister ( Such as Canada).

Since the House of Representatives of Canada is directly elected, it has greater representativeness and is the main body of the national legislative body; while the Senate is a body of review, checks and balances, and basically has no legislative power.

However, due to historical reasons, the Senate evolved from the Senate in Ancient Rome and the House of Nobility in England. It appears to have a higher status. Therefore, the Senate is also called the "House of Lords" or "The House of Nobility"; correspondingly, the House of Representatives is also called "House of Commons".

In the United States, senators are elected locally, and amendments to the constitution also give the Senate greater powers. For example, the president’s important personnel appointments must be approved by the Senate, and laws passed by the House of Representatives must also be approved by the Senate. Therefore, the United States Compared with other countries in the world, senators have greater powers and a higher reputation.

Except for the United States, the Senates of other countries in the world are basically rubber stamps, especially Canada.

If it must be compared with China, the Canadian House of Representatives is like the National People's Congress and the Senate is like the CPPCC. Therefore, NEXTDOOR's key public relations object in Canada is naturally the House of Representatives.

"Thank you very much, Chairman, for your support to NEXTDOOR," Feng Yiping took the initiative to say after both the guest and host took their seats. "NEXTDOR in the United States has contributed to the safety and harmony of the community, and we believe that we are cooperating with Mr. Chairman's committee. In the future, we will certainly be able to provide additional help for the safety of Canadian communities,"

"In the current era when terrorist attacks have become the biggest security risk, we also welcome companies like NEXTDOOR to join," Perett said with a light smile on his face, polite, but it seemed quite perfunctory, accompanying Feng Yiping. With some grand-sounding clichés, there is a faint feeling of grandeur.

It seems that even if it is a public servant directly elected by the people, this sense of superiority is consistent.

To such a person, Feng Yiping is not interested in rushing to flatter him, so this may be the driest meeting he has participated in.

Fortunately, this meeting did not last long, and after a cup of tea, Perret stood up and said, "Sorry, I have a hearing next time. Specifically, you can contact my assistant. He will help you introduce the heads of the Security Service, RCMP, Criminal Intelligence Service and other departments,"

"Bob," he yelled, and a quiet young man knocked on the door and came in. "Mr. Senator,"

Pellet pointed to Feng Yiping and Buchanan, "Next, you have to do your best to assist these two distinguished guests in handling related matters,"

"Sorry," he stretched out his hand again, "I'm sorry,"

"Thank you, Mr. Chairman," Feng Yiping shook hands with him, but did not look at him. Instead, he turned to say to Buchanan, "Notify the crew that they are ready to take off, and let Ruth contact the New York Mayor’s Office and tell Mr. Bloomberg, After two and a half hours, we should be able to have lunch together."

It seems that you are the only one who is busy, and my schedule is also very tight.

"Okay, I'll inform right away,"

Hearing Feng Yiping mentioning Bloomberg in this way, Pellet was obviously more enthusiastic. The political and economic circles in the United States are both big men. "So you already have an appointment? I'm planning to arrange lunch together at noon. "

"Thank you for your hospitality, and once again thank you for your support to our company,"

Who wouldn't say if you don't worry about it?

…………

Huang Jingping took her family and left for the airport. Feng Yiping didn't return to the hotel either. He drove directly to the airport from Capitol Hill. Perhaps Pelette had confessed that Bob drove a car behind.

"Buchanan, I have seen the recent news that Stephen Haber, the leader of the Coalition Party~www.wuxiaspot.com~, is integrating the Coalition Party with the Progressive Conservative Party? Can he succeed? If he succeeds, then the new conservative The party will be the largest opposition party and the largest right-wing party. Are we going to establish relations with them first?"

Looking at the British-style buildings outside, Feng Yiping said.

He didn't think so before, but Perett's faint arrogance made him feel this way. Now that he has a good relationship with the next president of the United States, he should establish contact with the prime minister who will be in charge of Canada for nearly 10 years. , Then why not?

"Did you also notice? I'm still preparing to brief you," Buchanan said. "This politician who has left Ottawa for a few years now seems to have some unstoppable momentum."

"However, people in the Ottawa circle think that what he wants to do is very promising, but his big move this time is not small."

Yes, relatively speaking, it is always easy to split and difficult to integrate.

"Will his integration action be successful? There will be results by the end of this year at the latest. I plan to find a way to establish direct contact with him by then."

"Then don't wait until next month," Feng Yiping said, "the sooner the better, it's best to get acquainted with him right now,"

He doesn’t remember much about Canadian politics. Of course, this Hubble, he naturally has an impression. Based on the analysis of later events, his integration action this time was obviously successful in one fell swoop. Of course, some people do not like him. Get acquainted with him when

"If we can help, you will fully support it,"

This will contact him and help him, which is a bit like sending charcoal in the snow, waiting for a while and then looking for him, it is equivalent to clinging, the treatment will naturally be different.

Buchanan did not understand why Feng Yiping was so affirmative, but he simply agreed, "I will implement it immediately," (to be continued.)
