Number One Player - Chapter 279
The following is the official news from People’s Daily Online:
From July 23 to July 29, the Supreme Commander of China and relevant members of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee and the federal delegation led by the President of the Bald Eagle Federation and the Secretary of State had a candid, efficient and constructive discussion on related issues of common concern.
(Notes: candid = disagreements and inability to communicate; efficient = can’t talk after a little chat; constructive = whimsical.)
(Translation: The two countries have had very disagreeable, slow progress, useless, time-wasting discussions.)
Both sides believe that the development of healthy and stable China-Federal relations is very important to the two countries and are committed to resolving relevant issues through dialogue and consultation.
(note: committed = status quo is not so, want)
(Translation: The relationship between the two countries is very ordinary, there are too many differences on some issues, and some issues are expected to be resolved through dialogue and consultation.)
The two sides fully exchanged views on issues such as joint cooperation in relevant scientific research fields, two-way investment, and protection of intellectual property rights, and reached some consensus in some areas.
(Note: fully exchanged opinions = each has their own words, and there is a lot of quarrel; some areas = there is no such thing at all, so that it is impossible to say which areas.)
(Translation: The two countries have had a lot of quarrels on joint cooperation in related scientific research fields, two-way investment, protection of intellectual property rights, etc., and basically no consensus has been reached.)
The two sides recognize that there are still major differences on some issues, and it is necessary to continue to step up work and make more progress.
(Translation: Both parties realize that there is no way to talk now, it can only be a quarrel, and X needs to continue to “step up Y’s work” before they can continue to talk.)
The two sides agreed to continue to maintain close communication on relevant issues and establish corresponding working mechanisms.
(Translation: Noisy, Noisy, Noisy, the Federation will always give in, haha.) [Note]
“We’ve been arguing for a week, and we haven’t come up with any results yet.” While complaining, Nie Zhibo reached out and closed the news page of People’s Daily Online, “Lu Yanchi will develop a complete version of space transmission technology, negotiation The progress is still in the state of ‘maintaining close communication’, tsk tsk, this speed.”
“Diplomacy, it’s all like this,” Xu Shaoyang, who was sitting next to him, said with a smile, “Actually, it would be more beneficial for us to take a longer time. It’s better to wait until Lu Yanchi and they directly transfer the full version of space technology. It would be better if it was developed.”
“You’re right, that’s what the top management should think about.” After tilting his head for a while, Nie Zhibo made a sudden realization, “The current negotiation rhythm does mean a bit of a delay.”
Xu Shaoyang looked at Nie Zhibo for a while, then shrugged: “…Forget it. I’ve been under heavy pressure recently. Before the negotiation is completed, I need to keep an eye on public opinion.”
He maintained a smiling posture and picked up a stack of paper information on the table: “Then I will take this stack of intelligence information?”
“Take it,” Nie Zhibo waved, “I wish you good luck.”
Xu Shaoyang looked at Nie Zhibo for a while, then looked at Shang Yinhe who was sitting next to him: “Don’t you have anything to say to me?”
Nie Zhibo thought for a while, then pretended to be stupid: “It doesn’t seem to be? We can’t seem to get involved in the work of public opinion, right?”
Xu Shaoyang pouted and slowly moved out of Nie Zhibo’s office.
As soon as Xu Shaoyang left, Shang Yinhe, who had been pretending to be a wooden man for a long time, couldn’t help but spit out: “Why did you act stupid just now? Didn’t you foresee the current situation?”
Nie Zhibo couldn’t help laughing: “Occasionally pretending to be stupid is good for your physical and mental health. You shouldn’t tell the truth in front of Shaoyang, right?”
Shang Yinhe couldn’t help but roll his eyes back at him.
Yes, their Guardian Alliance team had foreseen this diplomatic stalemate as early as N days ago.
Even in the current situation, there is a shadow of their intentional or unintentional promotion behind it.
After the establishment of the Guardian Alliance, Lu Yanchi was the one who had the biggest gain on the surface. He got a whole new technology line of the city in the sky that is completely different from the earth as a reference, and also gained an enhanced version of [Inspiration Burst] extraordinary ability.
With the addition of these factors, in just a few weeks, he solved many problems, and deduced the space transmission technology that originally belonged to the castle in the air to an astonishing level.
Lu Yanchi has gained a lot, but other people’s gains are not small.
Especially Nie Zhibo, his completely enhanced [intelligence gathering] extraordinary ability is simply the trump card in the field of intelligence work, and he can almost perfectly restrain many extraordinary abilities that are not yet developed on the entire earth.
Anyone who does something must leave traces. The enhanced [intelligence gathering] extraordinary ability can identify all the loopholes and traces without Nie Zhibo himself fully aware of it, capture the spies who leave traces, and block the possible Traces of information leaks.
Coupled with some information about extraordinary technology and extraordinary abilities obtained from Sky City, Nie Zhibo can be regarded as a shotgun. leak-proof state.
However, under such an iron-clad intelligence network, the information that Lu Yanchi successfully completed the first animal teleportation experiment of space teleportation technology was still spread abroad, and it was blowing like the wind at a jaw-dropping speed. It reached the ears of high-level leaders of many countries, and triggered a wave of visits to China by leaders of various countries.
This situation may seem… contradictory?
It seems contradictory.
Because this information leak was originally made by Nie Zhibo on his own initiative.
“Basically, no one showed any suspicion about this kind of intelligence leak,” Nie Zhibo said in Sky City at the time, “Everyone knows that the intelligence work situation in the extraordinary era has become very complicated, and key intelligence leaks have been done for a long time. Prepare yourself mentally.”
“Besides,” he laughed. “Even if someone really started investigating intelligence leaks seriously, they would never find out about me. Who would have thought that the leak was actually made by the boss of the intelligence department?”
“…Are you okay?” Mu Shiming couldn’t help asking when he heard this.
Nie Zhibo was at a loss when asked, “I’m fine, what’s wrong?”
“Leaking key national information…” Mo Shiming couldn’t help scratching his head, “I’m worried that you won’t be able to make it through.”
Nie Zhibo grinned: “Hey, Captain Mu, you underestimate our intelligence staff too? After we were doing intelligence work, there were many times when we were ‘must’, ‘forced’ to sell national information, and even There are also ‘must’, ‘forced’ to sacrifice some immediate interests, sacrifice some comrades…”
His tone paused, and his eyes were slightly erratic, as if remembering something from the past.
“…In short, I’m used to it,” Nie Zhibo said. “In the long run, this matter will be of great benefit to our country. As long as I know this, I will have a clear conscience.”
Not wanting to dwell on this topic, Nie Zhibo directly changed the subject: “Lu Yanchi’s progress is going very smoothly. He couldn’t get out of the laboratory this time to come to the meeting, but before he came, he told me that it is very possible At the end of July, he can officially start the volunteer space transfer test at a distance of more than 10,000 meters.”
“Is the human body test going to be done soon? The progress is so fast?” Shang Yinhe’s eyes lit up, “That’s a good thing, the faster the Yanchi side, the better it will be for us!”
In their original plan, China needed to have a strong technical suppression of other countries to cause panic in other countries.
The greater the technological generation gap and the stronger the technological suppression, the more panicked other countries will be, and the better their plans will be.
And space teleportation technology is a magic weapon used to generate pressure.
“If you want to establish a sufficiently authoritative international joint organization, whether it is the transformation of the United Nations or the establishment of a brand-new international joint organization, there are two aspects of coercion and inducement.” Three weeks ago, Nie Zhibo said to Shang Yinhe.
“We need a strong enough enemy, or at least an imaginary enemy, to intimidate;”
“We also need an attractive enough introduction to entice countries around the world to have a tendency to unite.”
“The coercion aspect can be discussed later. I have already thought about the measures, but it is a bit difficult to operate and needs to be discussed carefully,” Nie Zhibo said. “As for the enticing aspect, it can be implemented now.”
Space teleportation technology is what they finally decided to use to lure.
After a full discussion with Lu Yanchi, I learned about the difficulty of the technology (if there are no accidents, it will take at least 20 years for the earth to sprout space technology) and progress (the first phase of basic experiments is expected to be completed in July). ), the direction of the strategy is determined.
However, although the general direction of the strategy has been set, whether a strategy can be implemented correctly, well and efficiently is the key to the success of the strategy. Otherwise, it will only become a joke on paper.
At the point of space transmission technology, there is a lot of space worth operating.
“I have the confidence to persuade the high-level officials of the country to disclose this technology and directly use it as an introduction to unite all countries in the world,” said Nie Zhibo at the time, “but firstly, it was very laborious; Loss; three come…”
He shrugged: “Three, in this world, if you give something for free and don’t ask others to pay any price, it will make the other party suspicious, become very cautious, and suspect that there are traps. something, they will subconsciously underestimate its value.”
“However, on the contrary, the same thing can only be obtained if you clearly mark the price and ask the other party to pay a great price. On the contrary, it will make the other party feel at ease and cherish this treasure that has been obtained through untold hardships.”
“That’s why I must take the initiative to leak this information and let other countries take the initiative to come to our country for arduous negotiations.”
Recalling the plan at the time and the progress now, Nie Zhibo smiled: “The rhythm is in our hands, isn’t it?”

The author has something to say:
Note:
1. The diplomatic news in this article is excerpted from the Internet, and copied + modified according to the content of this article
2. The slang of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is a very interesting thing. Among them, the slang with the highest degree of threat is called “Don’t say anything without warning”.
In history, the state has performed its nirvana twice, “Don’t say it’s not forewarned”, on September 22, 1962, in the People’s Daily editorial “What is tolerable, but what is not” and on December 25, 1978. The People’s Daily editorial, “Our Patience Is Limited,” targets India and Vietnam. After the sacrifice, the Sino-Indian and Sino-Vietnamese wars were started respectively.
I don’t know when the next “Don’t tell me not to predict” will appear, I will pay close attention to it ^_^
3. Here is a collection of diplomatic slang that I have collected:
cordial and friendly conversation – literally;
Candid conversations—big differences and inability to communicate;
An exchange of views – the talks went their separate ways and no agreement was reached;
A full exchange of views – the two sides could not reach an agreement, and there was a lot of quarrel;
Enhanced understanding between the two sides – the two sides are very different;
Talks are useful – the goals of the two sides are temporarily far apart, and it is good to sit down and talk;
We have reservations – we refuse to consent;
Respect – not fully agree;
Appreciate – disagree;
regret – dissatisfaction;
unpleasant – intense conflict;
Expressing great indignation – now I have nothing to do with you;
Serious concern – possible intervention;
Can not be ignored – about to interfere;
reserves the right to respond further – we will retaliate;
We will reconsider our position on this issue – we have changed our original (friendly) policy;
wait and see – final warning;
Please reply by *month* – our two countries may be in a state of non-peace after *month*;
The consequences of this will be the responsibility of * – if possible our country will resort to force (this may also be a bluff colloquial);
This is what we must not tolerate – the war is coming;
This is an unfriendly action – this is an action against us; an action that could lead to war;
Whether it is bearable or unbearable – I don’t plan to bear it anymore, I have to do it.
Reining in the precipice – do you want to be XX?
Don’t tell me that – prepare the coffin.
