There is no need to elaborate on the specifications of the White House New Year banquet. Gao Xian only needs to ensure that his party dresses and talks freely and appropriately, and it is enough not to discredit the Chinese on this top social occasion.

In fact, in such an environment, the performance of Yi Huirong and Wu Zhibing is much better than that of Gao Xian. They easily integrate into the circle of ladies and celebrities at the banquet.

You can understand the truth when you think about it a little. As an ordinary person, Gao Xian was just a project manager with good results in the workplace in the original era; After coming to this era, although the social status has climbed very fast, it still needs a gradual learning and adaptation process, which is not comparable to the family background cultivated by Yi Huirong since childhood.

However, Gao Xian was not idle. He soon found the target figure - Morris stans, US Secretary of Commerce.

There is only one problem. There are circles everywhere. Morris stans has been whispering with the other two officials. It's not good to rush over, wasting the precious opportunity of first impression.

While Gao Xianzheng was thinking, a concierge came over and said, "Gao, please prepare. Mr. President will arrive soon. You are temporarily arranged to the front reception sequence."

"OK." Gao Xian, who was slightly stunned, quickly checked his clothes quietly to avoid mistakes.

Soon, in the spotlight, US President Nixon and us first lady pat came out together.

Gao Xian, who was temporarily arranged to the front, soon shook hands with the American president.

Nixon said, "Gao, thank you very much for saving the precious lives of two American soldiers."

"Life is precious, and it's my honor," Gao Xian said calmly. "I know that Mr. President is saving more lives in a greater way - peace."

"You are practicing the famous saying at the inauguration ceremony. The greatest honor that history can bestow is the title of peacemaker."

Nixon withdrew his steps towards the next guest, his smile was a little less professional, and looked at the high string shaking hands with American first lady pat with a little curiosity.

Almost every American president cannot succeed without the help of his wife. Pat is also an excellent wife. Since his husband took office, he has visited more than half of the 50 states in the United States. In the first year of his term of office, he shook hands with 250000 people. He can be called the most diligent first lady of the United States.

Therefore, Gao Xian complimented on this point: "your approachability makes me feel like a spring breeze."

Glancing at her husband who didn't move on, pat smiled at Gao Xian and said, "I didn't expect Gao to be so young and promising."

"I will take your praise as encouragement." Gao Xian calmly took this sentence. Seeing pat shaking hands with Yi Huirong and Wu Zhibing, Nixon said, "Mr. President, can I take a picture with you?"

"Of course." Nixon made a gesture to the photographer.

In this way, US President Nixon and us first lady pat stayed here for more than a minute, which suddenly broke other people's glasses.

Gao Xian, who also felt a little surprised, roughly guessed some of the reasons.

The president of the United States is also a living person. Compliment is a broad and profound knowledge, and he just scratched Nixon's itch.

As we all know, the American president will make a mistake, that is, the promises made during the election may not be fulfilled after being elected.

Nixon is no exception. He promised to end the Vietnam War during the election campaign, but after taking office, the bombing not only did not stop, but also escalated, which can be said to form a sharp contrast.

Although the military action may have been planned by the predecessor, the current must carry the pot.

Time magazine published an article on this, saying that Nixon had a "trust gap" on this issue.

When Nixon took office, on average, about 300 U.S. soldiers were killed in the Vietnam battlefield every week, so there were calls for an immediate withdrawal in the United States.

Under the increasing pressure of protest, Nixon came up with a way to localize the Vietnam War, that is, to withdraw the U.S. military from the frontal battlefield and replace it with the South Vietnamese themselves.

According to this idea, Nixon did comply with the requirements of the American people and took the so-called "road of peace".

In addition, at this critical turning point in time, Nixon may be secretly interested in Chinese elements, including Chinese.

Gao Xiancai didn't bother to pay attention to the fishiness. He only knew that he fooled himself into a group photo with the head of the world's number one capitalist power.

As long as the Watergate incident does not break out, this capital can be taken out again.

After that, Nixon made a brief speech with a happy face.

Gao Xian noticed that Nixon vowed that 1971 would be a good year.

"Politicians are really good at boasting." Gao Xian couldn't help laughing, "who wants to believe this sentence? At the end of the year, when he found that the Bretton Woods system exists in name, there's no place to cry."

You should know that since 1893, the United States has always had a surplus in international trade after catching up with the old capitalist powers such as Britain and France; But now, there is only one billion dollars left in this surplus, which may turn into a negative number in the twinkling of an eye..

It is under such circumstances that even Asian textile imports of such "small shrimps" have to be slashed by the United States.

However, at this stage, the main international trade pressure of the United States comes from Europe with economic recovery, especially West Germany with its manufacturing industry almost open.

Although under the Bretton Woods system, the liquidity of international capital is far from as free as it will be ten years later, many capital are still attracted to take the opportunity to hype.

In order to maintain the fixed exchange rate of the national currency stipulated by the Bretton Woods system, the West German central bank had to continue to buy dollars, which is estimated to be only one step away from the degree of boredom.

For the general trend that the United States can't run the deficit now, the high string is because the capital is not enough. The ability to resist risks is not so strong, coupled with the fact that the Hong Kong government is still implementing strict foreign exchange control, it has not gone all the way to Europe to get busy.

After Nixon's fooling, Yi Huirong whispered to Gao Xian, "have you touched Morris stans?"

Gao Xian shook his head. "I haven't found the right opportunity yet."

"We have known the lady of the Minister of Commerce." Yi Huirong smiled and continued to disclose the news: "and the lady Chen Xiangmei you mentioned."

Gao Xian raised his eyebrows and said to his heart that he really brought the right assistant this time.

"What are you going to do next?" Yi Huirong asked again.

Gao Xian answered without hesitation, "let's contact Chen Xiangmei. After all, what she does is Zhengzhi lobbying."

When she saw Gao Xian who was introduced, Chen Xiangmei said with a smile, "I noticed that the president and Mr. Gao had a very pleasant conversation just now."

"Ms. Chen is the most popular person in the White House." after a compliment, Gao Xian opened the door and said, "so, please do Ms. Chen a favor."

After listening to Gao Xian's intention, Chen Xiangmei did not refuse to send the business to the door. She said happily, "I know Mr. and Mrs. stans well and can invite them to my house for dinner."

Anyway, the Xiangjiang cotton textile industry association can reimburse, and Gao Xian won't be distressed about the unavoidable expenses, so he also said frankly: "then I'm going to bother Ms. Chen's house."

……

Chen Xiangmei's residence in Peanut Stew is a senior apartment in shuimen building.

Yes, the Watergate building is the place where the famous "Watergate incident" was committed.

In fact, Watergate building is a comprehensive building complex, which can be used for apartments, hotels, offices and so on.

Watergate building, regarded as one of the most ideal living spaces for Peanut Stew, is equivalent to a city in the city, with fitness clubs, restaurants, shopping malls, medical and dental clinics, grocery stores, pharmacies, post offices and so on.

At the same time, the architectural design of Watergate building is also extremely luxurious. It has fountains that can make a waterfall sound, garden view rooftop terrace, swimming pool, 28000 square meter Park, and a large number of basin cuts.

The arc design of Watergate building also allows apartment residents to enjoy the scenery of the Potomac River.

Coupled with the geographical advantage of only eight blocks from the White House, the Watergate building has attracted many American congressmen and officials appointed by the executive department to live in it. On the side of the drinking party alone, there are three cabinet members, two senators, Nixon's protocol director and more than a dozen White House aides.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Watergate building at this time is a paradise for celebrities and dignitaries.

Chen Xiangmei can live the same luxury life here as other Washington elites, which shows how well she is doing.

There was such an exquisite Zhengzhi lobbyist in the middle of mediation. Gao Xian met US Commerce Minister Morris stans in private.

Morris stans, who has long been used to such activities, told Gao Xian very directly, "after the public holiday at the beginning of the year, the Ministry of Commerce will officially announce the quota system for Asian textile exports to the United States."

Gao Xian asked, "how many quotas will major textile export economies such as Xiangjiang and South Korea get?"

Morris took a silent look at his wife Catherine, who nodded slightly to him, and then slowly said, "according to the existing statistical results, Xiangjiang should get a 60% quota and South Korea should get a 25% quota; but the actual situation can not be implemented. After all, South Korea is an ally of the United States, and the Ministry of commerce should also consider some positive governance factors."

Gao Xian raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile, "how much quota will Xiangjiang finally get?"

Morris made a gesture, "no more than 50 percent."

Although Gao Xian looks regretful on his face, he is already quite satisfied. To be honest, Xiangjiang is a colony with little real status after all. He should be satisfied to have such a big cake to eat!

……

After hearing the information from Morris, Gao Xian took the time to send two telegrams to Xiangjiang.

One is to tell Xiangjiang cotton textile industry trade association about the results after the boots landed; The other is to tell Gaoyi to build a warehouse for the stocks of Xiangjiang textile industry.
