Rebirth in officialdom and rising to the top

The old man smiled and nodded:

"The plan you made is pretty good, but video evidence alone is not enough, not to mention that this video evidence is not suitable for you to use as a weapon to overthrow the Zhang family!"

Speaking of this, the old man spoke with some seriousness:

"You must always remember that domestic stability always comes first. Only stability can lead to rapid development. Only by maintaining the speed of development can we catch up and even surpass those who are latecomers!"

"This video taken by the Shen boy is very likely to become a weapon used by hostile forces outside the country to criticize our political system and discredit our country, so I discussed it with your grandfather and decided not to publish it!"

As he spoke, the old man picked up a video tape and a bronze kerosene lighter from the table next to him. With a snap, a flame burst out from the lighter, and the video tape was instantly ignited...

Looking at the burning video tape that was thrown into the metal trash can by the old man, Ye Siqi's eyes flashed with a trace of pity, but he still said respectfully:

"Grandpa Liang and Grandpa, you are very thoughtful. Siqi's previous actions were indeed a bit abrupt!"

The old man smiled slightly and said:

"I can't blame you. After all, you focus more on the country and people's livelihood, and you are not sensitive enough to the world's political situation. You will understand it if you see more in the future!"

Ye Siqi thought for a while and couldn't help but said:

"Grandpa Liang, there is something I have been holding in my stomach for a long time. I dare not say it to my grandpa. Can you please listen to it?"

The old man seemed to have guessed what Ye Siqi wanted to say, and smiled slightly:

"Do you want to say that the people also have the right to know? Do you want to say that you don't agree with us old guys who always report good news but not bad news and whitewash peace?"

Ye Siqi's heart skipped a beat, and he looked at the old man in disbelief and said:

"Grandpa Liang, how do you always know these thoughts of mine? I have never told anyone these things!"

The old man laughed and said:

"If you, Grandpa Liang, couldn't even see through your little thoughts, you would have died at the hands of the reactionaries long ago. How could you still be the king of agents?"

Ye Siqi was sincerely convinced:

"Grandpa Liang is indeed an immortal sword with a sharp gaze!"

The old man shook his head and chuckled:

"You kid, stop flattering me. I don't know you? You are so sweet, but you are not convinced in your heart! Grandpa Liang will say a few words to you on behalf of your grandpa today?"

It was a rare opportunity to be answered by the founder of the Chinese intelligence system face to face. Ye Siqi said quickly:

"Stick what you want, don't dare to ask for it!"

The old man's pale face suddenly became very serious:

"I can't say your idea is wrong, but you have to take into account the particularity of our country. With the largest population in the world, you can imagine how difficult it is to govern!"

"I have been engaged in diplomacy and intelligence security work since the founding of the People's Republic of China. I have dealt with countless traitors and spies, but a large number of them have no idea that they have been deceived by hostile forces outside the country. The so-called awakened people only want to believe the so-called truth they see!”

"Why is this? Because public opinion is too easy to be misled and coerced!"

"Do you think your grandfather and others have never had this idea of ​​yours? But past history has proved that this idea may be realized one day in the future, but now, the conditions are not yet mature at all!"

"Only by unifying our thoughts and general direction, and uniting the whole country, can our country close the nearly century-old gap with Western countries as quickly as possible, catch up with them, and stand at the top of the world's nations again!"

"Absolute democracy is not bad, but it is not yet time. Grandpa Liang will give you an example. Before the war in which our country assisted Goryeo, most people said that we could not fight, but the great man waved his hand. He said: Fight, you must fight, hit with one punch to avoid hundreds of punches!"

"You have also seen the subsequent results. The seemingly arbitrary decision of the great man has brought peace to our country for half a century. And conservatively estimated, this peace can last at least another ten years! This is What a precious time of peace and opportunity for development!”

Having said this, the old man coughed slightly, and Liang Ziyi quickly brought a cup of tea and handed it to the old man:

"Grandpa Zeng, please drink some water first and then continue!"

The old man took the tea and took a sip, looked at Ye Siqi and continued:

"Siqi, tell me, what does this example illustrate?"

Ye Siqi's heart was already filled with turmoil. After thinking for a moment, he said uncertainly:

"Just like what Comrade Lenin said, the truth is often in the hands of a few people?"

The old man nodded happily and said:

"Yes, Comrade Lenin said 'often' and the great man said 'sometimes', but the meaning is the same. So Siqi, please talk about it now. Before the thinking and cognition of the people have reached a certain height, they will blindly What will be the consequences if we continue to implement the so-called hypocritical democracy and so-called absolute transparency of the West?"

Ye Siqi murmured as if enlightened:

"It is very likely that there will be chaos, division, or even being torn apart like a furry bear under the color revolutions in Western countries, and its vitality will be severely damaged, let alone achieving the great cause of national rejuvenation..."

The old man smiled and said nothing when he heard this, but Liang Ziyi suddenly became excited:

"Brother Siqi, don't be influenced by those so-called awakened ones. None of those guys who eat people's food and smash people's faults are good! Do you really think they will wake up after seeing the world? In fact, they are just like that. What a fool! It is nonsense to say that there is less corruption abroad. Where are there no good people and bad people? Moreover, the total number of people in our country’s system is 800 million, which is almost catching up with the total population of many medium-sized countries. There are many black sheep. Isn’t it weird at all?”

"What else is said about the general strikes abroad that are a symbol of democracy? They don't think about why such a general strike occurs? Are the problems solved after the general strike? They also don't think about what happens if their family members are lying on the operating table. What should I do if I wait for surgery, but all the doctors and nurses go on strike? What benefits does this so-called democracy bring to the country and the people? It’s just a farce of the group’s self-impression!”

The old man coughed lightly at this time and glared at Liang Ziyi:

"Ziyi, what you said in the first half was quite pertinent, but later it became a bit off-key! How do I usually teach you? All problems and things have two sides, and it is most important to avoid one-size-fits-all when looking at problems. Have you forgotten it? Don’t forget, your great-grandfather and I also participated in the general strike back then!”
