United Nations Building in the western United States.
After a brief meeting with the previous staff, Qin Zhiheng and the other two quickly completed the work handover.
At his first conference, Shang Cheng publicly requested international support.
This is also the first time since the founding of Country Z.
It soon received positive responses from many countries.
Even the United States stated on the spot that it would donate supplies worth more than 10 million Z-dollars.
It’s exactly what they envisioned.
Shang Cheng let out a long sigh.
In this way, the first thing he did after taking office had a perfect result.
All things are difficult at the beginning.
I believe that my future work will be smooth sailing.
The meeting proceeded step by step and soon came to the part that everyone was looking forward to.
All five candidates for Secretary-General were given time to speak.
Wadhai was the last to appear.
Seeing his confident look, Qin Zhiheng had to praise him:
"As expected of a man who could be re-elected for two terms."
"If not, how dare you participate for the third time?"
It was obvious that Shang Cheng had extremely high praise for Wadhai.
You should know that the conditions for re-election are extremely harsh. In addition to ability and resources, the most important thing is connections.
If any major country denies it, then Wadhai will lose the election.
"Don't forget today's mission. We'll vote later. Deputy Minister Qin, you go."
Shen Wanying sat behind the two of them, looking very inconspicuous, but she was the core figure of this trip.
The event ended with a speech by Wadhai.
"Now please let the representatives of each country vote."
"Do you agree that Secretary-General Wadhai will be reappointed?"
US Representative: “I agree.”
S Joint Representative: "I agree."
Representative of the Romantic Country: "I agree."
…
As major countries expressed their views, other countries followed suit.
When everyone's attention was focused on the Z Country representative area, Qin Zhiheng never raised his hand.
He looked around calmly and said three words firmly:
"I object."
There was an uproar!
Especially the US representatives and Wadhai, they looked at Qin Zhiheng with their jaws almost dropping.
So much so that the adjutant who presided over the meeting today forgot the next steps.
"What's going on with Country Z today? One moment they applied for aid, and the next they're opposing it."
"They used to either agree or abstain. Did they take the wrong medicine today?"
Qin Zhiheng remained calm, having anticipated this situation.
The past was the past, and the present is the present.
They want to act like "Country Z objects, can the meeting continue?"
"Of course!" Perhaps because Qin Zhiheng's gaze was too captivating, the man immediately announced, "One of the major countries objects and rejects your application for re-election!"
"The next candidate is Gunther Sheen. Representatives from all countries, please vote."
Gansel's prestige was obviously not as good as Vardhai's, and less than half of the people voted in favor.
"The next candidate..."
As the candidates were selected one by one, Qin Zhiheng's voice continued to be heard:
"I object."
"I object."
"I object."
"I object!"
Except for Radoslaw Greirat, another East Asian candidate, Qin Zhiheng finally voted in favor.
But at this moment, the US representative loudly said: "I object."
The five major countries have veto power.
Therefore, this candidate was still eliminated.
In the end, after all the candidates had voted, no one of them had received the approval of all major countries.
The meeting was suspended for repairs.
Shang Cheng and others hurried back to the exclusive lounge, but before they could even sit down, someone knocked on the door.
Shen Wanying didn't even raise her head.
What is meant to come will come.
Soon Wadhai was invited in.
In terms of friendship, Wadhai and Shang Cheng, who have worked in the United Nations for ten years, can be considered old acquaintances.
He got straight to the point and said, "I don't know where I've fallen short, and I hope my friends from Country Z can give me some pointers."
In several diplomatic interactions, Wadhai's attitude towards Country Z was quite good.
Especially in some minor frictions with the United States, he often stood on the side of Country Z.
But these are all his personal feelings. The United Nations upholds absolute fairness in its work.
Qin Zhiheng emphasized that their opposition was not against Wadhai himself.
"Mr. Wadhai, you come from a developed Western country. Your thoughts and actions are not in step with those of developing countries like us."
“We hope to elect a secretary-general who will represent our many developing countries.”
"If this is offensive, I hope you will forgive me."
Not to mention that Qin Zhiheng and Wadhai have no personal relationship. Even if Qin Zhiheng does, he will not go against the orders of his superiors because of a little bit of personal relationship.
Walderhay returned empty-handed.
He originally wanted to play the emotional card, but he didn't expect Country Z to change people at this juncture.
Qin Zhiheng escorted Wadhai out the door in a dignified manner.
Shen Wanying nodded approvingly and said:
"From what I know about them, there will be a vote next and they will give Wadhai another chance."
“The people we support may not necessarily succeed, but we must show our attitude.”
"To this day, Country Z will never give in on sovereignty and at all levels!"
The short break is over.
As Shen Wanying expected, other major countries agreed to give Wadhai another chance.
Voting restarted, and this time everyone's eyes were on Qin Zhiheng.
