Chapter 806: Expressing Attitude and Position
Away from the conflict between Taro Suzuki and Teru Fujita, a completely different scene was quietly unfolding.
Su Zhengyang was leading the Bird Empire's diplomatic envoy Seckt and Italian diplomat Marco into a banquet hall that was built with simple materials but revealed extraordinary taste everywhere.
The entrance to the banquet hall was carefully decorated. Two rows of tall soldiers in neat uniforms, holding rifles and standing in standard military posture were like two majestic gates, opening an extraordinary journey for the guests.
On the door lintel, a banner woven with colorful flowers and ribbons fluttered gently, with the words "Welcome Distinguished Guests" written on it in German, Italian and other languages, which not only reflected the host's hospitality, but also demonstrated the friendly atmosphere of international exchanges.
As we entered the banquet hall, we were instantly enveloped by a warm and soft light. It turned out that the top was covered with a transparent waterproof canvas, and underneath were cleverly arranged a number of exquisite oil lamps and light strips, which intertwined to create a warm yet solemn light and shadow painting.
On the surrounding walls were hung several exquisite paintings depicting China's natural scenery and historical culture, which not only displayed China's long history and splendid culture, but also added a touch of artistic atmosphere to the banquet.
In the center of the banquet hall, a long and large dining table occupies a prominent position. The table is covered with a white tablecloth, and on it are placed various tableware and crystal clear wine glasses, each of which shines with a soft luster, revealing an extraordinary texture. On both sides of the table, several carved wooden chairs are neatly arranged, waiting for the guests to take their seats.
The air was filled with enticing aromas, the smell of delicious food coming from the kitchen.
The dishes carefully prepared by Chinese chefs include traditional Chinese delicacies, such as attractive braised pork and fragrant steamed fish, as well as creative dishes that blend flavors from all over the world to meet the taste needs of different guests.
In addition, there is an exquisite dessert table in a corner of the banquet hall, which is filled with a variety of desserts and fruits, making people salivate.
In such an environment, Su Zhengyang, Sekt and Marco walked and talked, with relaxed and happy smiles on their faces. Sometimes they talked about the subtle changes in the international situation, and sometimes shared the customs and practices of their respective countries. The atmosphere was very harmonious.
The soldiers and staff around also maintained a high level of professionalism and courtesy, providing thoughtful service to the guests, filling the entire banquet hall with a harmonious and warm atmosphere.
After the three of them exchanged greetings, they naturally took their seats as host and guest. As the host, Su Zhengyang first invited Sekt and Marco to sit in the main seats, and then he sat next to them with a warm and sincere smile on his face. With the seats arranged properly, the banquet officially kicked off.
The delicacies on the table were like works of art, exuding an alluring aroma that was hard to resist. Marco's eyes were first attracted by a plate of brightly colored and exquisitely presented steamed fish. He exclaimed, "Wow, this dish looks really appetizing! Chinese cuisine is indeed well-deserved, even the simplest steamed fish can be made so delicious."
Upon hearing this, Sekt nodded and agreed, "Indeed, I noticed that this dish not only retains the freshness of the fish, but also cleverly incorporates the fragrance of various seasonings. It is really amazing. President Su, your chefs are really skilled!"
Su Zhengyang smiled modestly upon hearing this and responded, "You two are too kind. China has always been particular about food culture, and every dish contains the hard work and wisdom of the chefs. I hope these dishes can make you feel the enthusiasm and sincerity of China."
As the topic deepened, the three began to talk enthusiastically. Su Zhengyang took the initiative to mention the subtle changes in the current international situation. His tone was calm but full of insight: "Now the world situation is turbulent, and cooperation and communication between countries are particularly important. We in China have always been committed to promoting peace and development, and hope to work hand in hand with all countries to jointly meet challenges."
Upon hearing this, Marco agreed and said, "General Su is right. Peace and development are the main themes of today's world. As diplomats, we should shoulder this responsibility and contribute our own strength to promoting international cooperation and understanding."
Sekt also took over the conversation and shared his own views: "I completely agree with your views. The Bird Empire has also been committed to promoting international exchanges and cooperation. We believe that through dialogue and consultation, many unnecessary misunderstandings and conflicts can be resolved."
The atmosphere of the conversation quietly changed at a certain moment, and there seemed to be a subtle tension and depth in the air.
Seckt gently put down the cutlery in his hand, his eyes flashing with complex emotions. He spoke slowly in a pointed tone: "General Su, although we are multi-party participants in this negotiation, it is undeniable that the Fuso Empire, as one of the protagonists, cannot be ignored. However, I noticed that President Su seemed to have adopted a cold attitude towards Mr. Suzuki Taro. Is there a deeper consideration behind this?"
Su Zhengyang heard this and sneered. That smile showed his insight into the situation and his unquestionable determination. "Mr. Seckt, you have observed very carefully. But please allow me to be frank. I, or our China, have no intention of negotiating with Fuso." His words were loud and clear, and every word was like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of the two.
Upon hearing this, Marco and Sekte looked at each other, and a hint of surprise flashed in their eyes.
They obviously did not expect Su Zhengyang to express his position so directly, nor did they expect that behind this seemingly peaceful negotiation, there was such a resolute intention hidden.
Su Zhengyang did not stop. He picked up the goblet in front of him and shook it gently. The translucent white wine swirled in the glass, just like his complex and deep thoughts at the moment.
"From the moment the war broke out, the so-called peace talks were nothing more than a joke in our Chinese eyes." His voice was deep and powerful. "We mobilized a large army and went through untold hardships. It took us only two months to capture Kyushu Island of Fuso. This victory was won with the blood and lives of countless soldiers. How can we give up so easily?"
At this point, Su Zhengyang's eyes became extremely cold, as if he had seen the dawn of victory. "Also, I want to tell you a secret - another large army of our Chinese country is heading straight for Fuso's Shikoku Island without stopping. Fuso's national disaster is imminent."
His words were full of confidence and determination, making it impossible to doubt every word he said.
Finally, Su Zhengyang glanced at Marco and Sekt with a meaningful look.
"I know that the two of you came here this time, perhaps more out of friendship between allies, rather than a sincere willingness to negotiate for Fuso. Therefore, I hope that at tomorrow's formal negotiation meeting, you can remain neutral and not get involved. This will not damage our friendship and will make this negotiation more pure and direct."
