Just looking at his face, Gao Xian can judge that Nixon's phlebitis operation was indeed very successful. More importantly, his expression was full of fighting spirit.
It has to be said that those who can do great things have tenacity that ordinary people can't reach in terms of will.
Nixon suffered such a severe blow that he had not collapsed.
After asking about Nixon's postoperative physical recovery, Gao Xian first mentioned the implementation plan of the business speech, "Richard, if your health allows, I intend to invite you to make your first two speeches in Xiangjiang during the Chinese Lunar New Year, that is, next month, which is to add a wonderful new year program to Xiangjiang new year."
Nixon readily agreed: "so I can go to Xiangjiang for your lunar new year."
"I remember that when I visited China in 1972, it was also February. It seemed that it was just after the lunar new year."
"Yes, you have a good memory. It was the first month of the lunar new year, and according to folk customs, the Chinese new year was celebrated before the 15th of the first month." Gao Xian said with a smile: "the plan of the year is spring, and these two speeches will be very successful."
Details such as Nick's accompanying staff, the cost of round-trip air tickets and the cost of accommodation in Xiangjiang have long been explained in the contract. The inviting party is fully responsible. Gao Xian doesn't have to waste time with Nixon.
Therefore, Gao Xian then raised another topic, "at the end of September last year, I went to the Chinese capital, participated in a series of National Day activities, and met the supreme leader. He asked me to convey his invitation to visit China again."
On hearing this, Nixon made no secret of his joy, because whether his comeback is smooth or not depends on his influence. China's invitation to visit is tantamount to recognizing and paying attention to the new achievements of Sino US diplomacy and the legacy of governance left during his presidency. It is really a precious opportunity.
After careful consideration, Nixon told Gao Xian, "President Ford has a trip to China this year, so even if I am willing to accept the invitation, it is not suitable for this year."
Gao Xian thought about it. It's really such a thing. The former president and the current president are crowded together. It's easy to steal the limelight.
After all, Ford treated Nixon very well and granted Nixon a very responsible amnesty, so that Nixon could have a relaxed life now. Then he could only wait until next year.
Next, Gao Xian mentioned the situation in South Vietnam, "at the end of last year, I went to Saigon for business and found that the situation was not good. The battle of Fulong failed and the gateway of the Mekong Delta was lost. I'm afraid the phase of national subjugation is near!"
Nixon pondered: "when I was president, I had asked Congress for approval several times to re aid Saigon, but it was rejected. President Ford had the same result. No matter how bad the result was, it could only be accepted."
Gao Xian asked thoughtfully, "what about the more than 20000 American consultants still in Saigon and Saigon people who are close to the United States?"
"Then we can only retreat under the organization of the American embassy." Nixon shrugged. "David, you may not know some details of the work of the government. Retreating overseas Chinese is a necessary lesson that the American embassy must be familiar with, step by step."
"Richard, I want to confirm a question to you." Gao Xian made an open-minded attitude of asking for advice. "Since the United States participated in the Vietnam War, does the United States have the obligation to take over the resettlement of post-war refugees?"
"Of course," Nixon replied with great certainty.
"Well, here's the problem. From what you said before, I can roughly infer that Congress does not care about the life or death of Saigon, and then Congress, the White House and the Pentagon may not care about the time of death of Saigon." Gao Xian stressed: "There are more than 20000 American consultants in Saigon, plus people close to the United States, how can there be tens of thousands, and how many relatives can each bring?"
Nick Matsushita replied consciously, "it seems that there are seven relatives..."
Gao Xian snapped his fingers, "then multiply by seven, and the final figure will be at least 200000, more than half of the number of Allied soldiers who successfully retreated in the Dunkirk retreat."
"With the need for personnel evacuation on such a scale, Congress, the White House and the Pentagon may ignore the time of death in Saigon and make insufficient preparations. Think about what kind of humanitarian disaster will be caused at that time?"
After all, Nixon is not the president of the United States now, so he has the ability to analyze some things, but he will not think deeply. As the saying goes, if he is not in his position, he will not seek his own government.
At this time, Gao Xian told his reasoning freely. After Nixon carefully tasted it, he couldn't help being shocked.
The reason why Gao Xian wasted his saliva and Nixon said these words naturally came from his interests.
After an earth shaking and violent shock occurs in the situation of a region, a large number of refugees will follow, and these refugees will flee to the surrounding safe areas.
In the "old script", Xiangjiang has received about 200000 Vietnamese refugees in more than 20 years. The population of Xiangjiang was about 4 million in the 1970s and increased to about 5 million in the 1980s. The proportion of the two can be described as the same, which has brought heavy pressure and sharp contradictions to Xiangjiang Society.
If you are not an experienced person, it is difficult to understand the seriousness of this issue, but you can think about the 21st century in the "old script", the refugee problem caused by the Syrian civil war and the contradictions arising from the reception of refugees by EU countries.
Gao Xian regards Xiangjiang as his important base. Of course, he hopes that Xiangjiang can get rid of some burdens, especially those of Vietnamese refugees.
Why should others pay for the sins created by the United States!
Gao Xian thought about using a fleet to transport hundreds of thousands of refugees to the United States to complete the obligations not completed in his "old script", which are easy to be ignored by financial peers, but the refugees who work hard in the new environment can become their own customers in the United States.
As for Gao Xian's goal of "talking" about Nixon, it is because Nixon's return is absolutely inseparable from influence. If he can make achievements on the 100% correct issues of American withdrawal of overseas Chinese from Saigon and reception of refugees, it will undoubtedly help to wash away the shame of the Watergate incident.
Nixon, who was once the president of the United States, soon figured out the value of justice under the "guidance" of Gao Xian. Suddenly, his old eyes glowed and muttered to himself, "David, if Saigon really collapses to that point, you have found a good card for me."
