Li Peiji and Chiang Kai shek,Ⅱ

Better and Better                                                                                              Day 28

    Today we will continue to learn the dialogue between Li Peiji and Chiang Kai shek. When Chiang Kai shek would leave, Li Peiji stood up and want to say something. Chiang quickly clasped Li’s hand and asked three questions. The first is “ do you eat well ? ” The second is “ Is it anything important to come to Chongqing this time? ” In fact, the first two questions are nonsense. The third question is “ I heard that Henan suffered disaster. Is it serious ? ” Li was hesitant and reluctantly said “ we can overcome it ”. Later, Li had a conversation with Chiang’s secretary, Chen Bulei. He said when Chiang was listening that report, everything seemed bigger than he wanted to say. So he swallowed up the words. Have you ever met the situation of Li Peiji ?         

      今天我們用李培基和蔣介石的對話繼續學習透視力。當蔣介石起身準備離開，李培基站起來，欲言又止。蔣趕緊握著他的手，問了三句話。第一句，“培基呀，沒有吃好吧？”第二句，“這次到重慶，有事嗎？”其實前兩個問題都是領導慣用問候下屬的話,并沒有實際意義。第三句，“聽說河南遭了旱災，嚴重嗎？”李培基略有遲疑，勉強說“本省能克服”。後來李培基和蔣介石的秘書陳佈雷說，在聽蔣匯報的時候，匯報的事情都比他想匯報的事大，所以他就把話吞了回去。你有沒有遇到過李培基式的情況？
