As early as China's ancient history, China has diplomatic historical stories, the Qin and Han Opened up the "Silk Road"; during the Ming Dynasty, "Zheng He went to the West"; Tang Xuanzong went to "Tianzhu Xitian Sutra" to study Buddhism, and other great achievements that made great contributions to the country's economy and internal affairs. Diplomats, on the other hand, have exchanged their wisdom in the face of danger for mutual respect and harmony between countries.
Back in China's modern history, Premier Zhou's diplomatic story is a good story that we have heard from generation to generation in our Chinese hearts.
In the 1950s, Premier Zhou received an interview with an American journalist. During the interview, the reporter inadvertently saw an American-made Parker pen on the prime minister's desk, and the reporter immediately asked with a slightly contemptuous expression: "Your Excellency, your excellency, why do you Chinese leaders still use the pens produced by our United States?" After listening, Premier Zhou smiled and said humorously: "Speaking of this pen, there is another story, this is a gift given to me by a North Korean friend, saying that it is the trophy of the War against the United States, and it is given to me as a souvenir." I think it has a deep meaning, and I have left this pen of your country. After the American reporter listened, he was blushing with shame.
What is called moving a stone to drop on one's own feet, this is a vivid example, the reporter originally wanted to ridicule Premier Zhou, but the premier's clever "story" disintegrated his intentions, but also quietly kicked the sarcastic ball back to the American reporter, not only defending the dignity of our Chinese, but also authoritatively telling the American reporter that we are a country with strength and support, which is called killing two eagles with one stone.
According to China's modern history, Premier Zhou was an "icebreaker" in the coordination of Sino-US relations. Once, there was also a story that when Premier Zhou met with US President Richard Nixon, he did not know what kind of mind Nixon had to pretend to inadvertently say: "The nuclear weapons possessed by the United States are enough to destroy the earth dozens of times!" ”
Premier Zhou raised his eyelids to look at Nixon and said: "We in China are relatively backward, and we only have enough weapons to destroy the earth once." "Premier Zhou humbly treated each other with courtesy, not humble and unobtrusive, and let the Americans understand what is called calm and relaxed, soft and rigid, and finally embarrassing and embarrassing is the Americans themselves."
British Foreign Secretary Aiden once told American reporters: "Sooner or later you will know that Zhou Enlai is not an ordinary person." In China's diplomatic history, Premier Zhou was an "outstanding negotiator", he had firm patriotic principles, wise and meticulous thinking and exquisite negotiation art, so that people around the world can appreciate the style of our Chinese.
Back to our real-time diplomacy, just in July, the Sino-US trade war, which has lasted for nearly 2 years, was finally reconciled, and the result was completed on the G20 summit diplomacy table. What do you think of this result?
