Switzerland is very strange in terms of political system throughout the world.

For example, there is no head of state in this country, and only a seven-person committee represents the highest administrative organ, but these seven people are only equivalent to ministers. It is said that they are ministers and each person leads a department, but it does not mean that they are the leaders of this department, but are just in charge.

How to understand it? It’s like you are the Minister of Foreign Affairs, but the diplomatic power is not in your own hands. Any major decision can only be decided by the committee. The minister only has daily executive power, which means that the so-called small things can be decided by themselves, and big things require the committee to vote and make decisions.

This country does not have the separation of powers. The parliament is the highest authority of the state. The legislative power, executive power and judicial power are all owned by the parliament. However, when major decisions are made, they must pass a referendum.

It's like the relationship between a company's board of directors and the general manager, the parliament is the board of directors and the federal committee is the general manager.

Then, this country is highly autonomous. The federal government enjoys exclusive powers such as diplomacy, defense, customs, and currency. The states and municipalities reserve the exclusive powers of managing police, religion, etc. In terms of social welfare, the federal government has the right to legislative powers, and the state exercises the powers of execution. The powers shared by the federal and state are taxation, education, health, etc.

So although the police uniforms in this country are the same, the badges are different. Police in each place have their own special badges.

The most bizarre policy is direct democracy. Although Switzerland is a representative democracy country, citizens are allowed to exercise the legislative reconsideration and creation power by direct voting.

The right to re-decide is the right of citizens to recognize or reject the legislation of parliament. Any amendment to the Constitution and laws related to the Constitution passed by the government or parliament must be voted by citizens and approved by the majority of citizens and approved by the majority states before they can take effect.

Power, also known as Citizen Initiative, means that a proposal can be proposed as a "Citizen Initiative" after soliciting 40,000 signatures. The federal government has the obligation to accept it. After the decision of the parliament, the case will be submitted to the referendum for the case according to the original proposal or at the same time.

Finally, except for administrative officials, almost all other officials work part-time.

Because the power of councillors is heavily restricted, and there is no salary, only conference subsidies, almost all councillors work part-time, in municipalities, and even some mayors and town mayors work part-time.

In the case of Entrebch, he was originally a university professor, but he ran for the mayor after retirement and served the townspeople. He didn't have much power, but he had a lot of trouble. This is the normal state of Swiss officials.

As for Jean Nord, this guy served as a member of parliament for his own property. He is actually a businessman, and the member of parliament is just a part-time job.

Zhou Nan's current position is vice-chancello and vice-chancello in German, and vice-premier in German. In fact, it means the same, that is, the Vice Premier.

Of course, this deputy prime minister does not have executive power, but rather means the deputy secretary-general.

The Federal Council now has one secretary general and two deputy secretary generals, both of which are full-time positions, that is, those who cannot work part-time, are professional politicians.

A deputy secretary-general is responsible for the daily work of the General Office of the Federal Council, and a deputy secretary-general is responsible for foreign affairs coordination and also serves as a spokesperson for the government.

Zhou Nan's position is an unplanned position, which means it is not a legal position at present, it is just a temporary measure.

In December last year, the Federal Commission was preparing to apply to Parliament to establish an additional position as deputy secretary-general, but it was pushed to February. In February, Zhou Nan repented himself and did not want to become a professional politician, so he rejected the Federal Commission's proposal.

However, his position cannot be so unclear. After all, Switzerland has always had only two deputy secretary-generals. His position is not legal without a parliamentary vote.

Some MPs in the party proposed that Zhou Nan runs for the Lucerne Federal Parliamentary Officer, this position actually fits Zhou Nan's identity and does not need to worry too much, but they can have the power to give advice.

However, this action was opposed by other parties, because the MPs were not administrative officials, but represented the local area, but occupied a seat in the parliament.

Zhou Nan's influence is getting bigger and bigger, which will only make the Liberal Democratic Party more and more powerful, which is not conducive to the political balance in Switzerland.

However, if Zhou Nan was asked to run for the National House of Representatives, the MP would not have much say in foreign policy, which would limit Zhou Nan's performance.

So, based on the arrangements for Zhou Nan, Swiss politics has also been competing since this year.

Finally, Ernstrebos, the current Secretary-General of the Federal Council, proposed a plan. He resigned on the grounds of his age, thus freeing up a place.

Zhou Nan was nominated as one of the two deputy secretary-generals, but was not responsible for specific matters. The Federal Commission arranged a professional politician to exercise administrative power on behalf of Zhou Nan.

This plan has been recognized by everyone. Due to his position, Zhou Nan must step down as a member of the Liberal Democratic Party, but he is not responsible for specific matters.

Zhou Nan also recognized this arrangement and now he just waited for the whole people to elect a new parliament, and then the new parliament voted on his position. After it was passed, Zhou Nan's current identity became legitimate.

On April 24, Zhou Nan stayed at home for only one night before coming to Bern. He informed the Federal Council of his trip to the United States and gave them the minutes of his meeting with the Americans to view.

Switzerland in his previous life was neutral and the liaison point between the Eastern and Western camps, and there were some taboos on both sides, so it did not make much money in the European revival plan.

However, Zhou Nan put forward the view that politics belongs to politics and economy belongs to economy. He believed that Switzerland should participate more actively in the supply chain of the world economy.

Switzerland's development mainly relies on the dividends of European economic development in later generations. It vigorously developed tourism, precision processing, biopharmaceuticals, chemicals and finance industries, and gradually became the most developed country in the world.

However, Switzerland has also taken many detours. Its real takeoff was only after the 1970s that it took advantage of low tax revenue to attract a large number of multinational groups to settle in.

Now, Zhou Nan is more willing to expand Switzerland's advantages in advance and stand at the top of the global supply chain.

Switzerland is a small country and cannot become a country with a full industrial system, nor will it become a threat to anyone, so this is the advantage.

As long as we can control the advantages of biotechnology, pharmaceutical technology, chemical technology and precision industrial technology, Switzerland's economy will definitely take off.

The seven consuls of the Federal Council read the records of Zhou Nan's talks with the Americans and immediately felt like they were treasured. Because there were many industries of assistance and cooperation projects, Switzerland was equivalent to having already grasped the inside story before this plan was implemented. If they missed this opportunity at this time, they would not be a qualified politician.

On Saturday, April 26, the Swiss election kicked off at 1,630 voting sites across the country.

In this general election, not only will the members of the Federal House of Commons and the National House of Commons be directly elected, but also vote on the compensation from Switzerland to the allies.

Although Switzerland claimed to be neutral during World War II, under pressure from Germany, it had to serve as Germany's money bag and supply base. During World War II, although Switzerland suffered huge military expenditures, it also made a lot of money, and of course it was liquidated after the war.

After more than a year of negotiations, at the end of 46, Switzerland signed the Treaty of Washington with the United States and finally obtained the understanding of the United States. The Swiss government paid the United States 25 million Swiss francs in exchange for unfreezing Swiss accounts and eliminating the blacklist of Swiss companies and individuals.

Two hundred and fifteen million Swiss francs, less than six million US dollars. For a country, this punishment is almost symbolic.

However, this expenditure must also be voted by the national vote, and the parliament has no right to pay the state's money to other countries.

The vote only takes one day, but it takes four days to collect the vote. On May 2, the Swiss government announced the voting results, and most of the original members remained in office, and only less than twenty members were replaced.

The compensation agreement was also recognized by most citizens and passed.

While the parliamentary elections had not yet begun, Zhou Nan drove to Amsterdam to celebrate Audrey's 18th birthday.

This time, he drove a light car with only Etiny and two guards. Four people drove two Beetles and came to Amsterdam.

At this time, Zhou Nan felt that the Beetle was a bit too small, and it didn't matter if it was driving in a short distance, but it was really a big deal to drive long distances.

After this election, Zhou Nan was going to draw a few design drawings and draw a few classic models from later generations, so that Yannik could not always produce Beetles, at least another flagship model would be used to enhance Volkswagen's style.

Audrey has been preparing for Anne's role for a year. After reading all the introductions of Anne, she has the same life experience as Anne. So, nothing went wrong in shooting.

Both the producer and the director praised Audrey, which made Audrey feel very good.

Zhou Nan came to celebrate her birthday specifically, which made her overjoyed. The crew thoughtfully gave her a day off so that she could have time to meet with Zhou Nan.

Zhou Nan and Audrey are both celebrities in the Netherlands now. They didn't go out, but they were tired of it in the hotel for a day, which made Zhou Nan leave Amsterdam with satisfaction.

On May 5, the new parliamentary elections will open. This election does not involve the consul, but only the elections of various committees of the parliament.

Zhou Nan's office election was also included in the agenda. In the end, in the secret ballot of 223 members of parliament, Zhou Nan received 215 votes of favor, eight abstentions, and none of them opposed.

This also set a new record for the Swiss parliament. His election votes were the highest in history, and there was no vote against them, which was never before.
