Chapter 1321 Olympic Games
Many anchors cried and choked up when reporting news about the disaster area!
Huge disaster, huge losses.
Especially the real picture of the earthquake, it is too shocking. In the face of natural disasters, human beings seem fragile.
Houses collapsed, wailing everywhere, mountains and rivers broken.
The country spared no effort to fight against the earthquake and disaster relief, and the people donated money and materials and blood to help the disaster area, reappearing the spirit of "one side in trouble, all sides support". The people's soldiers once again fulfilled their promises, and at the same time proved that their blood has never changed color.
The buried people were rescued one by one.
There was a temple, under the insistence of the abbot, leading all the disciples of the temple to break the three precepts of "not being close to women, not being stained with blood, and not eating meat", and taking in pregnant women to give birth in the temple.
There was a child who saluted the rescue team when he was rescued from the ruins.
When a middle school building collapsed, the director of teaching, Tan Qianqiu, lay on the desk with his arms outstretched, protecting four students. The children were saved, but Teacher Tan died.
A mother knelt on her knees and supported herself with her hands in the ruins to protect her baby. The baby was unharmed, but she left the world forever. The mobile phone saved the text message she had written in advance: "Dear baby, if you can survive, you must remember that I love you."
Too many touching stories, too many epic stories, happened in the earthquake relief.
Even if the country spared no effort to fight against earthquakes and disasters, many people still died.
The dead are gone, and the living are like this!
Unconsciously, it was August 8, which was the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympic Games, which was broadcast live to the world.
Liu Tao finally returned to Beijing. As soon as he arrived in Beijing, he felt the strong atmosphere of the Olympic Games, which made him, who was a little depressed during this period, smile a little.
In 1932, when China was facing internal and external troubles, it sent representatives to participate in the Olympic Games for the first time. The world's most populous country only had one athlete participating in the competition, and one person carried a flag to represent one country. This was the impression that China, which was bullied at the time, left on the world. Four years later, in 1936, the Chinese delegation went to the Olympics for the second time and was given the shameful title of "Sick Man of East Asia" because of its poor performance in the Olympics.
The clock is changing rapidly. More than 70 years have passed. The 2008 Olympics were held in China, and people all over the world focused their attention on this oriental country. The number of people in this Chinese delegation exceeded 1,000, becoming the delegation with the largest number of participants among all countries.
After the reform and opening up, China missed the 1980 Moscow Olympics. In the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, China finally appeared in the Olympic Games again. Behind the dazzling results of each Olympic Games is the development and change of China's national strength.
The evolution of "Sick Man of East Asia" into "Oriental Dragon" shows that the Chinese nation has the vitality of endless and tenacious struggle.
The whole world is moved by China's resilience.
Affected by the US subprime mortgage crisis and economic crisis, and at the beginning of the year, China suffered the great test of freezing ice and snow disasters, and suffered the great trauma of natural earthquakes in May. China was not defeated, but survived.
The aircraft carrier fleet cruising in the ocean, the strategic bombers soaring in the sky, and the intercontinental missile test and laser anti-satellite test again showed the attitude of the Oriental dragon.
It deterred jackals, tigers and leopards, so that they dared not act rashly.
China was safe and sound, but overseas was already turbulent and undercurrents were surging, very turbulent.
The storm caused by the subprime mortgage crisis is howling all over the world, making the world feel the cold chill.
However, this Olympic Games allowed everyone to find warmth and happiness in the cold wind.
The number of participating countries and regions and participating athletes in all previous Olympic Games was the highest. Guests from all parties gathered in China. This Oriental country welcomed the arrival of guests from all countries with a new attitude of active openness.
And the capital, as well as the remarkable construction achievements made by the Republic after the reform and opening up, also appeared in front of the world.
Liu Tao had just returned to the capital when envoys from Saudi Arabia and other countries were eager to visit him.
"Leader, do you want to accept it? Which day do you want to arrange it?" Secretary Han Yi asked in a low voice.
Liu Tao's face was calm, as if he was thinking, but also as if he was not thinking, and said: "Arrange it in three days. I will entertain them to show my hospitality."
Since before the Spring Festival, these envoys have wanted to visit Liu Tao more than once, but Liu Tao refused them all because of his full schedule.
In 2007, Saudi Arabia and other countries intended to maintain high oil prices, and even wanted to reduce oil production in order to maintain high oil prices. Persia, on the other hand, held three rounds of negotiations with the United States, flirting with each other, intending to reach an agreement and restore the alliance relationship.
Liu Tao knew the dirty things in this.
It was nothing more than trying to find a balance and gain benefits.

Liu Tao sometimes finds it incredible that Saudi Arabia and other countries are pursuing the real integration of the Arab League and wanting the entire Arab League to become a pole in the future. This is bound to be contrary to the interests of the United States. The room for compromise between the two sides is very, very small, because the United States simply cannot sit back and watch the Arab League achieve integration and become a pole in the future world.
After all, if the Arab League is truly integrated, it will control the world's energy center, and its voice and international status will be unimaginable. The United States will inevitably face serious challenges to its interests, and even the father of the United States will probably face the threat of national destruction.
The U.S. attack on Iraq has a very bad image and reputation in the Arab world. Countless Arabs hate Americans. Even now, freedom fighters from various Arab countries still enter Iraq every year to attack Americans.
So far, Egypt has not dared to allow European and American warships to pass through the Suez Canal.
Under such circumstances, countries such as Saudi Arabia still have expectations for the United States.
Liu Tao didn't even know what to say.
There is also Persia. Ever since the collapse of the Pahlavi dynasty, not much is known about the bad things between Persia and the United States. The United States has smeared Persia for more than 20 years, which has made Persia’s image in the United States particularly bad. In this case , Persia actually wants to reconcile with the United States, which is simply a fantasy.
Because of the wavering of Persia's attitude in 2007, Saddam's life was not easy, and even the guerrillas in Afghanistan were having an unprecedented hard time.
Affected by the subprime mortgage crisis, the world's economic development has slowed down or even regressed. Persia's oil exports have decreased. At the beginning of the year, oil and natural gas were even broken. As a result, Persia's international trade revenue has dropped significantly, internal turmoil, and pro-U.S. The faction launched wave after wave of offensives.
Until now, Liu Tao didn't know what to say when he wanted to ask for cooperation for something he couldn't get in the United States.
Without him, Persia's life would definitely be much more difficult than it is now, but the Persians have no self-awareness. (End of chapter)
