Chapter 636 Negotiations End Political Gaming
Su Zhengyang gracefully poured fragrant tea for the ambassadors one by one. The Longjing tea poured out of the pot swirled in the transparent teacup, emitting a faint fragrance. He raised his head slightly, looking at the ambassadors who were usually high and mighty but now sat upright with extremely nervous expressions, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Everyone, please taste our Chinese Longjing green tea." Su Zhengyang's voice was soft but firm. "This Longjing tea has a refreshing aroma, sweet taste, and clear tea soup, which is pleasing to the eyes. When drinking, you should appreciate it carefully to appreciate its beauty. The characteristic of Longjing tea is that it is fragrant and mellow, but not strong. You need to taste it slowly."
However, the ambassadors of various countries had no time to savor the fine Longjing tea. They were all trembling with fear, and the teacups in their hands seemed to become extremely hot, making it difficult to swallow. At Su Zhengyang's invitation, they could only bite the bullet and drink up the hot tea in their hands. As for the real taste of the tea, it had long been covered by tension and fear.
Su Zhengyang looked at them, his eyes revealing a deep and firm look. He spoke again: "China is a peace-loving country, and we treat all friendly countries with a very friendly attitude. I, Su Zhengyang, am also an easy-going and approachable person. But here, I remind you that I will give you the last two days to solve the problem of the concession. Remember, this is your last chance."
Although his voice was not loud, it seemed to have a power that penetrated people's hearts, making the ambassadors present feel an inexplicable pressure.
The ambassadors of various countries secretly complained in their hearts, but their expressions became more and more solemn. They looked at Su Zhengyang, and an indescribable fear and uneasiness surged in their hearts. In their eyes, Su Zhengyang was simply a cruel demon. Although his words were gentle, they revealed an unquestionable majesty and determination.
"Easy-going? Easy to approach? This is simply a huge joke!" The ambassadors of various countries muttered in their hearts. He recalled the previous confrontations with Su Zhengyang. Every time was like dancing on the edge of a knife. If he was not careful, he would fall into an irreversible situation. At this moment, they finally realized that the patience of this Eastern leader had reached its limit. They must make the right choice at this critical moment.
"If we can't give Su Zhengyang a satisfactory answer in the next two days, then an extremely miserable end will be waiting for us." Françoise Dubois thought silently, beads of sweat already oozing out of her forehead.
Su Zhengyang exerted an incomparable and enormous pressure, making people feel suffocated and desperate.
Fortunately, they saw the attitude of the Bird Empire. The European hegemon was willing to return the concession unconditionally, which undoubtedly gave them a glimmer of hope. With the Bird Empire's suggestion, I believe that their local top leaders will pay more attention to this issue and will be more inclined to make the right decision. In this way, they will face much less resistance in the negotiations.
Ambassadors from various countries exchanged glances with each other. Although they were still uneasy, they also had more confidence. They knew that this was a critical moment and a turning point. They must seize this opportunity to make their countries agree to make concessions on the concession issue, otherwise, they would probably find it difficult to return to their homeland alive.
Su Zhengyang stood up and said to the ambassadors with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, today's negotiation meeting is over. I am deeply sorry for the shock I may have caused you just now." His words revealed an unexpected kindness, as if the image of the cold and decisive leader before had disappeared in an instant.
This scene made everyone feel relieved, but also a little dazed. They looked at Su Zhengyang, who looked harmless and had a gentle smile on his face, completely different from the imposing, cruel and ruthless image at the negotiation table just now. This huge contrast made everyone a little unbelievable, and they began to doubt whether this was the same Su Zhengyang.
The ambassadors of various countries did not know how to respond for a moment. After a brief silence, they stood up and politely said that they would do their best to make the decision of the local side as inclined as possible to unconditionally return the concession. The Italian ambassador spoke first: "President Su, please rest assured that we will convey your wishes to the country and try our best to promote this decision." Other ambassadors also echoed and said that they would do their best.
However, Su Zhengyang was not satisfied with this. He emphasized again: "It's not trying, but definitely. I hope you can understand that this is China's bottom line and my final request to you." Although his tone was gentle, the firmness and unquestionableness in it could not be ignored.
Ambassadors from various countries looked at each other in bewilderment. They knew that there was no way out of this negotiation. They could only convey Su Zhengyang's request to their governments truthfully and try their best to facilitate this decision. Otherwise, unpredictable and serious consequences would be waiting for them.
Just like that, the meeting officially ended. Ambassadors from various countries fled out of the conference room, as if they wanted to escape from this stressful and tense place as soon as possible. At this time, there was still a strong smell of blood in the conference room, which was the trace of the tense atmosphere just now, and also reminded everyone of the tragedy that had just happened here.
After the ambassadors left the conference room in a hurry, the tense atmosphere in the conference room gradually dissipated. At this time, Fu Jiang walked to Su Zhengyang's side, frowning, and it was obvious that his anger had not subsided. He hesitated for a moment and finally spoke: "President Su, that guy Seckt was obviously trying to sow discord just now. Do you want to teach him a lesson and remind him not to play his tricks in front of China?"
Su Zhengyang smiled slightly and shook his head, his eyes revealing a kind of depth and wisdom. He said calmly: "Fu Jiang, I know you are very dissatisfied with Sekt's actions, but we must proceed from the overall situation and cannot destroy our relationship with the Bird Empire because of such a small matter. Political games have always been complicated and subtle."
After hearing this, Fu Jiang still felt unwilling, but he also knew that what Su Zhengyang said was true. He sighed and said helplessly: "But the Bird Empire has always harbored evil intentions. Their actions this time are obviously deliberately pushing us to the opposite side of the anti-aggression alliance."
Su Zhengyang patted Fu Jiang on the shoulder and consoled him, "Yes, the Bird Empire does have its own plans. But precisely because of this, their actions have given us an opportunity. We want to let the anti-aggression allies see that China is a country with principles and bottom lines. Our attitude will make them more aware of China's toughness, and will also make them more worried that we may stand on the side of the aggression allies."
After hearing this, Fu Jiang's eyes flashed with surprise. He thought about it, then nodded in agreement. He said, "You mean, we should use this opportunity to give the anti-aggression allies a warning so that they dare not easily become our enemy?"
Su Zhengyang smiled and nodded, saying, "That's right. This is a political game. Any negligence in the slightest detail may lead to completely different results. We must let the anti-aggression allies understand that China is a country that cannot be underestimated. Our attitude will determine the direction of the situation on the entire European battlefield."
