　　"Today we are going to talk about it, what is this order" "Some people are worried about China's economic prospects, I don't think there is any need for it" "The so-called 'debt trap', this 'hat' can't be pinned on China anyway"... …

On March 7, the First Session of the 14th National People's Congress held a press conference in the multi-functional hall of the Media Center in Beijing. Foreign Minister Qin Gang answered questions from Chinese and foreign journalists on issues related to "China's foreign policy and foreign relations."

　　On March 7th, in the press conference hall of the Media Center, the press conference of the Chinese Foreign Minister and the Two Sessions was held here, conveying the "Voice of the Year" of China's diplomacy to the world.

　　As a window to understand China's foreign policy, the foreign minister's press conference is highly regarded every year.

This is the "first show" of China's new foreign minister, Qin Gang, at the two sessions, and the attention of the outside world is even more focused.

　　The press conference was scheduled to be held at 10:00, but as early as 8:00, there was already a long queue of Chinese and foreign journalists waiting to enter the venue.

　　At 10:00, Qin Gang entered the venue on time.

He has served as the spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs twice, and his speech style is both sharp and down-to-earth, which left a deep impression on people.

At the end of last year, he was promoted from the Chinese ambassador to the United States to the Chinese foreign minister.

　　"The world today is undergoing major changes unseen in a century. China will firmly pursue an independent foreign policy of peace and a mutually beneficial and win-win strategy of opening up, and will always be a builder of world peace, a contributor to global development, and a defender of international order. .” As soon as the press conference opened, Qin Gang cut straight to the point.

　　In the following time, Qin Gang answered everything from head-of-state diplomacy, major power relations, regional hotspots, and international governance. While laying out the latitude and longitude of China's diplomacy, it also showed the "three-dimensional aspect" of China's diplomacy.

　　Here is the resolute side of China's diplomacy in defending national interests——

　　"The solution to the Taiwan issue is the Chinese people's own business, and no foreign country has the right to interfere."

　　When answering Taiwan-related questions, Qin Gang took out a copy of the Chinese Constitution.

He said: "I know that today I will definitely ask about the Taiwan issue, and I will bring a special copy of the "Constitution of the People's Republic of China." Afterwards, he read the legal text to indicate China's "red line" on the Taiwan issue.

　　The Constitution is the common will of 1.4 billion Chinese people, and Qin Gang's ingenious answer is impressive.

　　Here is a moment of personality in foreign communication——

　　"I remember that when I first came to the United States as an ambassador, the American media exclaimed, 'China Wolf Warrior' is here. Now that I am back as foreign minister, this title is no longer given to me. I really feel like I have lost something."

　　To the tricky question of "Wolf Warrior Diplomacy", Qin Gang answered with his own experience.

He also said that when jackals get in the way and wolves attack, Chinese diplomats must "dance with wolves" to defend their home and country.

　　After a witty response, the audience smiled knowingly.

Everyone understands that "Wolf Warrior Diplomacy" is nothing but a discourse trap. Those who created this discourse trap did not understand China's diplomacy, but ignored the facts and had ulterior motives.

　　There is also the "language art" of Chinese diplomacy——

　　Talking about Sino-US relations, Qin Gang used the metaphor of a track and field race to point out that the US is always going to trip up the other side; when talking about the crisis in Ukraine, he pointed out that there seems to be an "invisible hand" pushing the conflict to escalate; when talking about this year's plan, he said China's diplomacy has pressed the "accelerator button" and sounded the "assembly call"...

　　There were 14 questions and answers, and the press conference lasted about 2 hours. Qin Gang's answers were firm and soft, and there were many witty remarks.

Some commented that journalists will make people feel the three-dimensional sense of China's diplomacy.

　　In fact, including the foreign minister's press conference, during the two sessions of the country, the outside world has been seeing a three-dimensional China that is better at dialogue with the world through the channels of representatives, ministers, and committee members.

　　However, Qin Gang also said at the scene that day that China is easier to be "hot searched" and watched by crowds than before, but we don't have enough microphones and the volume is not loud enough. There is a lot of noise and noise.

　　Therefore, China needs to express itself to the world as always, so that the world can see a real and sensible three-dimensional surface.

　　The foreign minister's press conference is undoubtedly an excellent window.

Through this, China's diplomacy and China's image are more three-dimensional and clearer.
