In the international political arena, there is a notoriously late king, that is, the current Russian President Vladimir Putin. There are countless examples of his lateness, seeing the Queen of England 14 minutes late, seeing the Vatican Pope 40 minutes late, and seeing Morkel four hours late.
Putin's habit of being late has run through his life, he is only seven minutes from his home in elementary school and late for his first class. He was in love with his ex-wife, Lyudmila, and half an hour late was standard, and once an hour and a half late, and the ex-wife said she had been numb to waiting.
There was also the most famous lateness, and it was this lateness that earned him Yeltsin's appreciation as the president's successor. This passage general Jin Yinan said very brilliantly:
Putin's rise to power was not according to the election, that is, Yeltsin designated. In October 1994, when Yeltsin accepted Sobchak's invitation, invited Yeltsin to St. Petersburg to relax and spend a vacation and hunt, that is, before hunting, it was the long table of the Western table, first eat Western fresh roast meat, hunt after roasting, when eating barbecue, Yeltsin found that there was a seat on the Western table, empty, Yeltsin asked who this seat was, they looked: Vice Mayor Putin's. The person next to him went on to say: This guy is always late.
Putin that day, driving a broken Volga, Volga broke down on the road, left him hanging for more than an hour, he arrived late.
Putin said: "Sorry, I came late. "Sit there and eat roast meat." Yeltsin later came to see the memoirs, and this period was very exciting.
Yeltsin said, "Okay, let's go ahead and eat the roast." Just eating, Yeltsin suddenly saw a huge brown bear flashing out of the jungle in the distance, the heart looked very much, such a big guy, Yeltsin was nervous, holding this glasses to look at this way, a little nervous, his hands trembled, and the glasses fell on the grass under the table.
Yeltsin's memoirs are particularly ambiguous here, when he says: "All seven of my assistants went under the table to find me glasses." In fact, it is impossible for seven assistants to climb to the table to find glasses. Everyone looked at the brown bear, and he was killed, and he went under the table. Yeltsin wrote very politely, saying that all seven of them had gone under the table to find me glasses. Only putin, who was late, suddenly turned around and used his gun, and his gun rack stood next to it, ready to shoot it. Suddenly, he turned around and took the gun to shoot decisively, one shot hit the brown bear, did not kill, was injured, followed by the second shot, the bear was killed.
Yeltsin recalled, he said: "I looked at this latecomer, when the camouflage suit was very fitting, the shotgun posture was very confident, hugging tightly, like hugging my beloved." "In an instant, all of Putin's shortcomings became advantages, this late-arriver advantage, Yeltsin did not hunt, the brown bear was killed, did not hunt, went back to leave, did not hunt and left the next sentence - this man must go to Moscow.
That's what the French Pasteur said:
