Regarding the State Councilor's joke, Lu Weimin could only smile shyly, but could not say much.

The military's actions have its own procedures. Of course, the foreign affairs department must also be notified during the operation, and the central government will make overall coordination and arrangements. However, the military's wishes are definitely somewhat different from the foreign affairs department's ideas. Both parties must

It is the central government's responsibility to blend opinions and reach consensus. Lu Weimin's trip as a member of the Political Research Office of the Central Committee and the International Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China seemed to be a move in advance, and he achieved such magnificent results.

It is also abnormal to say that the foreign affairs department has no ideas.

However, the director helped Lu Weimin smooth things over, saying that we are still in an exploratory stage, and many things are only superficial. To truly have something substantial and formal, the next step is needed for the diplomatic and defense departments of the two countries.

formal contact.

This can be regarded as a step forward for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Before the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has made a formal decision, the delegation from the Central Political Research Office and the International Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China have already talked about this matter during their visits. It must be said that it is a bit

It is a slap in the face of the foreign affairs department, and the State Councilor in charge of diplomatic work must still feel a little unhappy. Of course, from the perspective of the matter itself, it is still a good thing. It is also a rare opportunity for the Chinese navy to go abroad and truly gain a foothold.

The General Secretary was very punctual, and there was no delay as expected. He greeted everyone to take their seats in a very easy-going manner. He even greeted Lu Weimin specifically and congratulated him on returning from a successful mission with his delegation. This made Lu Weimin feel a little scared.

.

The director of the general secretary's office came in together with the general secretary, and the atmosphere in the reception room seemed to become solemn all of a sudden.

The General Secretary spoke casually to several leaders before getting down to business, expressing his hope to listen carefully to Lu Weimin’s gains and feelings about leading the CCP delegation to eight African countries, and to hear Lu Weimin’s thoughts after this visit.

Based on his duties as deputy director of the Central Political Research Office and deputy director of the International Department of the CPC Central Committee, he would like to talk about the suggestions and opinions of the Central Political Research Office and the International Department of the CPC on various aspects of work in eight African countries.

The General Secretary's words came out. Lu Weimin didn't feel anything yet, but several other leaders felt that there was something extraordinary. It was normal for the General Secretary to listen to the report, and it was reasonable for the General Secretary to want to listen to Lu Weimin talk about his gains and feelings, but it was reasonable for Lu Weimin to talk about the central government.

It is a bit different to discuss suggestions and opinions on Africa work within the scope of the Research Office and the International Department of the CPC Central Committee. This means that the General Secretary seems to attach great importance to Lu Weimin’s report. From this report, there are also

I have come up with some different things, and I hope Lu Weimin can reveal them all in this report.

Zhao Jiahuai actually had some mental preparations, but he thought that the General Secretary might ask for some relevant opinions while listening to the report, but he did not expect that the General Secretary would bluntly express at the beginning that he wanted to hear something other than the report, which meant

It seems that the focus of this report has changed and it is more focused on things other than the report.

"In accordance with the arrangements and requirements of the central government, I led a team to visit eight African countries this time, which lasted 33 days and participated in nearly a hundred visits, inspections, discussions, and dialogues. Basically, I achieved the scheduled goals, and also participated in some

Additional activities have also achieved relatively good results. Next, I will give a brief introduction to the eight countries I led this time. Then I will report in detail on the harvest and results of this visit. Finally, in accordance with the requirements of the General Secretary, I

I’m talking about some of my own feelings.”

Although he felt that the atmosphere was a bit serious, Lu Weimin no longer had stage fright. He was a little nervous before. But when it came time to go into battle, he was no longer afraid. In his own words, he was an exam-oriented player.

It's a big scene, the better you can perform.

"The first stop is Ethiopia. I will not introduce the situation in Ethiopia. I will talk about some of the purposes, intentions and thoughts of our visit to Ethiopia. The Ethiopian ruling party and our Chinese Communist Party maintain some relatively close relations. The EPRLF is currently in

Domestic public support is still relatively high, but the Egyptian Revolutionary Front is still facing huge pressure to develop the economy. At present, the relationship between the Egyptian Revolutionary Front and the United States and European countries is also developing smoothly..., During the contact, exchange and inspection process, we felt that the Egyptian Revolutionary Front was developing smoothly.

Fretilin is still able to grasp the current evolving situation and realize that developing the economy and improving people's living standards is the most important means to maintain national stability and unity. However, because they are still in the developing stage, they have no idea how to achieve this in the period of social transformation.

The ruling party still lacks experience in leading economic development. At this point, they also hope to learn from us and learn from the experience gained by the Communist Party of China in the process of reform and opening up. On this point, I can especially feel the urgency in their hearts.

Feeling,……"

"... During the meeting, I also suggested to them that they could arrange for their cadres to go to our Central Party School for short, medium and even long-term training, but they believed that due to various factors, the scale of such training could not be too large, especially for those who

It was not realistic for the grass-roots EFTF cadres, so I suggested to them that they could build their own cadre training academy of their own, which is their own Central Party School of the EFTF, so that local training can be achieved. Second,

In the future, it can also be combined with local reality. If there are gaps in teaching staff and other equipment, our Communist Party of China can consider providing some support. They are very interested in our proposal, especially in the hope that after the construction of the party school, we can send some qualified people.

Cadres who have practical experience in grassroots work and are good at economic work serve as teachers to provide targeted training for their middle and grassroots cadres of the EPRF, so as to help the EPRF play a greater role in promoting local economic development...

"

Everyone who was doing this listened attentively. Although they had all read Lu Weimin’s visit report before, the written content was never as vivid and intuitive as such a face-to-face report. If you have any questions, you can ask them in person to understand.

More detailed and thorough.

"We have specially added some arrangements for this trip. We also reported to the central government before the trip, which is to increase cooperation with other political parties and civil society organizations in various countries other than the ruling party, such as industry trade unions/farmers' associations and the media.

I think this is particularly important for people-to-people contact and communication. I have a relatively big feeling in these African countries, that is, the government and the ruling party have a very warm and positive attitude towards China, but the attitude of the people is different and they are welcoming.

, there are also people who are disgusted. This has multiple factors. I think some of the most important factors may be that we pay too much attention to the exchanges with the ruling party and the government, and ignore the contacts and exchanges with some opposition parties and social civil organizations, so that they

If we do not understand the reality, we are psychologically hostile and disgusted, and if there are some people from abroad who are willing to instigate slander, it will easily offset the advantages we have gained from developing relations with the ruling party and the government, making our Chinese enterprises and

The development and activities of the Chinese in these African countries have been affected in many ways..."

Lu Weimin originally planned to put this point of view until the end when he talked about his feelings, but as he continued to talk, he got it right and brought up the topic.

His words immediately aroused the interest and attention of everyone present.

In fact, the phenomenon mentioned by Lu Weimin is not a special case, but a common phenomenon. Logically speaking, China tightened its belt to support African countries in the 1960s and 1970s, and formed a deep friendship with African countries. Although times are changing now,

But now that China has re-entered Africa, especially in economic and trade exchanges and investment projects, it has comprehensively cooperated with African countries, which has played a very good role in promoting the economic development of African countries, especially with the rapid development of China's economy in recent years.

, China has closer cooperation with African countries in trade and investment, and China also adheres to a completely different concept from Europe and the United States, that is, it does not interfere in the internal affairs of African countries and does not dictate the internal affairs of African countries. It should be said that in this case,

China should be the closest friend to developing countries like Africa, but in fact it is not as good as we imagined.

No matter which country you are in, there are always some disharmonious noises. Of course, there are many factors involved. Firstly, it is unrealistic to expect that everyone will welcome Chinese companies and Chinese people to Africa. Secondly, China

A large number of companies and people have entered Africa, and it is inevitable that some of them are of poor quality or even illegal and criminal, which has damaged China's image. Thirdly, there may indeed be some slanderous and slanderous factors from some European and American countries out of various mentality, but everyone believes that these factors are unlikely to bring harm to China.

China has brought such a huge negative impact. On this issue, China has also been exploring and searching. What factors restrict the further improvement of China's image in Africa and the further expansion of its influence?

Now Lu Weimin brought up the contact between opposition parties, and specifically mentioned the communication with social groups such as industrial unions, farmers' associations, and even environmental protection organizations. Everyone here felt a little enlightened. If

Everyone can still think of the important factor of opposition parties and opposition parties, but other social group organizations such as labor unions/farmers’ associations have indeed been somewhat ignored by us before. As for people from the news media, although there is contact, they are basically

They are the official newspapers and official media of each country, and they have very little contact with local and industry/private media. It is precisely these people, these media, who have become the source of discordant noises, or opposition and opposition.

Discredit the bridgehead and main position of China’s influence.
