President Carter is now in a mess. A piece of grapevine news mentioned by little bush when chatting with Gao Xian is a good illustration.

The Carter Administration's foreign policy can be described as patience diplomacy. Its general background is that in the 1970s, the Soviet Union's comprehensive national strength was in the golden age, while the United States was unable to do so. Therefore, Carter made great efforts in the negotiations on the limitation of strategic weapons and wanted to create his own legitimate legacy.

The so-called strategic arms limitation negotiations are a series of negotiations between the United States and the Soviet Union, two superpowers in the state of the cold war, aimed at reducing their destructive nuclear weapons.

In 1972, the United States and the Soviet Union achieved results in the first round of strategic arms limitation negotiations, and jointly signed the Anti Ballistic Missile Treaty. At the same time, they also signed a five-year interim agreement between the United States and the Soviet Union on certain measures to restrict offensive strategic weapons.

Obviously, these achievements have not achieved the fundamental purpose of the strategic arms limitation negotiations, that is, to truly provide for the reduction of nuclear weapons between the United States and the Soviet Union.

Therefore, Carter wanted to achieve the historic result of real reduction of nuclear weapons between the United States and the Soviet Union in the second round of strategic arms limitation negotiations on the basis of the first round of strategic arms limitation negotiations, and then become a legitimate legacy of his presidency.

In short, Carter basically achieved this goal. On June 18 this year, he signed a series of achievements of the second round of strategic arms limitation negotiations with Soviet leader Brezhnev, including the US Soviet Treaty on the limitation of strategic offensive weapons, the joint statement on the principles and basic guidelines for future strategic arms limitation negotiations The agreed statement and common understanding on the US Soviet Treaty on the limitation of strategic offensive weapons, and so on.

However, these things are only approved by the US government, but have not been approved by the Congress, and there is a lot of opposition in the Congress.

In this case, Carter was eager to win over the members of the Communist Party and reach some compromise, so as to achieve the results of his own efforts.

Little Bush smiled unkindly and said, "kixinge clearly told President Carter that if the White House did not agree with King Pahlavi's entry into the United States, he and some other heavyweight members of Congress of the Communist Party would not agree to the Treaty on the second round of strategic arms limitation negotiations. President Carter was so angry that he yelled at fu_ckthe Shah in the Oval Office!"

Gao Xian laughed. These Zhengzhi elites fought so fiercely that they couldn't hide the temperament of normal people.

King Pahlavi is the simplest and easy to understand title for the Iranian monarch. The standard title of the Iranian monarch is "Shah", that is, "Shah". President Carter made a rude remark on this word, which shows how angry and angry he was under the pressure of the Communist Party.

Gao Xian estimated that it was only a matter of time before President Carter gave way to King Pahlavi in allowing him to enter the United States. At that time, the United States will have a great excitement!

Bush Jr. failed to run for the Texas house of Representatives last year. At present, he came to the east coast to help his father Bush Sr. in his election campaign, so there are still many things. After staying here for a while, he left in a rage.

In fact, compared with the gossip in the ruling circles that little Bush joked about, Gao Xian paid more attention to how President Carter cleaned his cabinet, especially the position of US Treasury Secretary and chairman of the Federal Reserve.

President Carter so boldly informed more than half of the cabinet members to resign. Naturally, he had made plans long ago. Therefore, the new personnel arrangements were soon announced. Among them, the new Treasury secretary really "brightened the eyes" of the outside world. It turned out that William Miller, the most incompetent chairman of the Federal Reserve, became Michael Blumenthal's successor.

This personnel change is quite intriguing, because there were problems in the cooperation between Michael Blumenthal as US Treasury Secretary and William Miller as chairman of the Federal Reserve. The former basically regarded the latter as a "tool man", which is also the place where the outside world criticized William Miller most.

You know, the Secretary of the Treasury is responsible to the president and the chairman of the Federal Reserve is responsible to Congress, but William Miller is led by Michael Blumenthal, which makes the Federal Reserve lose its independence.

As a central bank, the Federal Reserve is a private institution, which is inevitably questioned by the outside world, but the American elites are not fools. Since the Federal Reserve is allowed to exist and has existed for so many years, the Federal Reserve must have the existence value that can at least explain to the public. One of them is to check and balance the government whose priority is to develop the economy, which can not avoid the communication brought by it Cargo expansion.

But when William Miller served as chairman of the Federal Reserve, the inflation rate in the United States rose to double digits, mainly because he listened too much to the White House.

Now, William Miller has been removed from the post of chairman of the Federal Reserve, which is not surprising to the outside world. However, he has become the US Treasury Secretary, and Michael Blumenthal has lost his job, which is really surprising.

In this regard, many American media mocked: "after a long time, it turns out that William Miller is President Carter's real person. He should be the only person in American history who has been chairman of the Federal Reserve and Treasury Secretary at the same time."

Gao Xian's observation will certainly not follow the entertainment spirit of these media. In his opinion, both Michael Blumenthal and William Miller are elites with outstanding ability. Their previous proud achievements in business are not mixed, but they are not placed in the right position for various reasons, so they can't give full play to their real ability, Give the outside world a mediocre feeling of mediocrity.

Because of this, Gao Xian continued to carry forward one of his characteristics in dealing with people - providing help in the snow and inviting unemployed Michael Blumenthal to meet him.

Despite Michael Blumenthal's efforts to cover up, discerning people like Gao Xian can still see the loss of falling from the cloud to the dust.

"Does Sir Gao want to show sympathy to me?" Michael Blumenthal asked mockingly.

Gao Xian smiled and asked, "what's your plan next?"

Michael Blumenthal shrugged. "Back in business, that's where I'm good."

"Just right." Gao Xian said leisurely, "I'd like to invite you to be the president of Howard Hughes. What do you think?"

Michael Blumenthal was surprised. "I have just been abandoned by President Carter. What does Sir Gao like about me?"

"Of course, it's your excellent resume in business." Gao Xian smiled. "In order to dispel the doubts of the American people, the senior management of Howard Hughes company and Howard Hughes foundation have been hiring American professionals. I still hope to get along well with this team and recommend excellent members to it, which will help to realize this wish."

Michael Blumenthal looked at Gao Xian, suddenly opened his mouth and asked in skilled Chinese, "is my ability also favored by Sir Gao?"
