South Koreans, who have always regarded winning as an important city, lost to Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, in the qualification of bidding for the 2030 World Expo, and withdrew miserably with 119 votes!
"Glory despite defeat"?
119 votes to 29 votes, the difference is simply a heaven and a place, and there is no suspense about losing.
But the huge difference of 90 votes has become in the mouth of South Korea"Sorry for defeat".
Even Korean netizens, the "strongest mouth cannon in Asia", couldn't stand it anymore and asked sharply:"Did you know that there is a word called fiasco? didn't even enter the final vote, why should I lose? ”
If you don't complain about themselves, they are embarrassed, it is really a Shenbo propaganda film made by South Korea, and the Saudis have to wake up laughing when they see it, they are simply kneeling and giving away people's heads.
The main theme of Saudi Arabia's bid team is a world peace, no matter what nationality, culture, or gender, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia welcomes you.
This is what people all over the world crave the most.
Looking at the promotional videos of other people, they are all about the country's cultural environment, urban modernization, and intelligence, and also depict a lot of attractive blueprints, including the green coverage rate of Riyadh, the bidding city, ranking among the top 100 "world's best livable cities", and it is necessary to create a technological country with an oasis in the sky by 2030.
Let's not talk about whether you can do it, it's always great to have a dream, even if you can't realize it, isn't there a certain oriental infrastructure madness?
Not bad money anyway.
On the other hand, South Korea, with the keyword "growing up on the post-war ruins" to produce a promotional video, the screen is full of star idol actors, raising their fingers and chanting no1, the background** is still "Gangnam Style", which has been outdated for 10 years, and has nothing to do with Busan.
The full 1 minute of **, the scene related to the bid city of Busan, is only 9 seconds.
After reading it, I only remember the "your choice" and "only one choice" shouted by Korean stars.
Compared with the Saudi propaganda film with the theme of "the world's common future direction", there is no connotation at all.
It's not as good as our hospitality Shandong.
In the end, even Italy, which gave up lying down, had 17 votes, while South Korea only got 29 votes.
But South Korea, which has strong self-esteem, just refuses to admit that he has a problem.
They called the 90-vote difference "regrettable defeat", and regarded the loss to Saudi Arabia as "although the defeat is still glorious".
The Korea Chamber of Commerce and Industry boasted that although the bid for the World Expo was fruitless, it had improved South Korea's competitiveness, expanded its global network, and made many partners.
Anyway, it's just a sentence, win hemp!
South Korea does not bow its head to death, and insists on implementing the invincible mental state of "instead of reflecting on yourself, it is better to blame others".
Just like this professor at Pusan University, he said that it was the war in Ukraine, the new crown epidemic, the Sino-US conflict, and the global economic downturn that made Busan, South Korea's bid to host the World Expo fail.
In the end, I was still very small, and I didn't forget to trample on the fact that Saudi Arabia is an "underdeveloped country".
The subtext is that if you vote for an underdeveloped country, but don't give us Korea, you have no vision here!
This universal sentence, I hope everyone will memorize and recite it a hundred times, the salary is too small not because of our lack of strength, but because the boss is underdeveloped!
It's all external, not a single internal.
South Korea's "** report, even more to Yoon Suk-yeol to save respect, said that in order to bid for the World Expo, South Korea and business people in order to contact more than 180 members of the Bureau of International Exhibitions, trekked 19.89 million kilometers, equivalent to more than 490 circles around the world, Yoon Suk-yeol himself has made more than 150 diplomatic efforts.
In addition, there are speculations in South Korea that Saudi Arabia has achieved its ultimate success by relying on "oil money capacity" and "big investment".
Implication,It's not that I don't have the ability, it's that the other party has the "money ability".
Blame the world, blame the opponent, anyway, you just don't reflect on yourself!
This is precisely exposed,The small country mentality that Koreans can't afford to play
Looking back on South Korea's "dirty hands" in major sports events, it has always implemented the principle of throwing the blame if it fails, and no one can beat it upside down.
South Korean scholar Yoo Seok-chun once said that this kind of erroneous culture of "just playing tricks" is reflected in all aspects of South Korean society.
Kimchi Shenbo
But then again, the formation of culture is by no means without reason, and South Korea's failure to bid for the World Expo this time has once again proved to the world:
South Korea, except for kpop, has nothing!
Saudi Arabia, which is despised by Koreans, has a thousand-year-old civilization and unique customs, and the important thing is that people are really rich!
As soon as there is a big event in South Korea, you can only move outKpop stars, and an altarKimchi
From visiting abroad to ordinary people holding national conferences, they all think that Hallyu is a representative and handy symbol of Korean culture.
visited the United Kingdom, Yoon Suk-yeol took the girl group; Bid for the World Expo, let celebrities appear on camera and shout, and use posters of Hallyu idols all over the world to promote Busan's bid for the Expo.
Even South Korean diplomats, in order to win the support of various countries for Busan's hosting of the World Expo, even sent kimchi one country after another.
Does that countWorld-class bribery?
In November, the South Korean ambassador to the United Kingdom gave kimchi as a national gift to King Charles of the United Kingdom.
With kimchi in his left hand and idols in his right hand, he knocked on the door from door to door, and stuffed it into it when he opened the door, regardless of whether people disliked it or not.
South Korea is a typical person who doesn't count in his heart, flickers himself and is lame, has a clear understanding of the country's positioning, and always thinks that everything can be kpop, and he doesn't have a long memory at all.
In August, South Korea held the 25th World Scout Convention, which took six years to prepare and a budget of 117 billion won, but in the end it became a "wilderness survival".
43,000 teenagers from 158 countries around the world went to Jeollabuk-do Province to participate in a scout camp, but when they arrived, they found that the camp infrastructure had not yet been built, the ground was full of water, and many of the sites and accommodation tents were unusable.
Hundreds of students fainted from heat stroke, suffered from mosquito bites, the toilets were dirty and unusable, the eggs they ate were moldy and hairy, and there was a car accident that injured three Boy Scouts.
The British, American, and Singaporean teams were so angry that they quit the Boy Scout Jamboree.
South Korea ate all the foreign faces around the world, and in the end, in order to comfort the boy scouts from all over the world, they still moved out of the Hallyu idol to save the scene.
At the closing ceremony of the Boy Scout Convention, 18 idol groups were invited to hold a KPOP concert.
In case of indecision, idols solve itIt's the only way to do it in South Korea.
When the Hallyu and Tantan pickles, which are packaged layer by layer, become the only representative of South Korea that can show their hands, it will not be far from extinction"Entertainment to rejuvenate the country" and "entertainment to death" are often in the same vein.
"Hugging the thighs" diplomacy is a misstep
Although South Korea's bid to host the World Expo failed, looking at the momentum on the streets of Busan, I really thought that the 2030 World Expo would be held in Busan.
The South Korean people were very much looking forward to the successful bid to host the World Expo, but they were disappointed by the tragic result.
This is also why South Korea has to find external factors and shirk responsibility for itself.
For the sake of the votes of the next **, Yoon Suk-yeol only dared to apologize and never dared to admit his mistake.
But in fact?
The result of the failure was caused by Yin Xiyue**.
Many South Koreans believe that the reason why Shenbo failed was because Yoon Suk-yeol ** followed the United States and Japan".Values diplomacy", completely catering to the perception of Westerners.
During the bid to host the World Expo, many Western countries opposed Riyadh hosting the World Expo, and they called on the world not to choose Riyadh on the grounds that "Riyadh has no human rights".
South Korea** saw this scene, and secretly rejoiced, and it is likely that for this reason, it will come to Busan** to be elected.
According to a report, ***, who is familiar with the World Expo vote, said before the vote: "I believe that South Korea may have a dramatic reversal in the runoff." ”
He revealed that in the vote, Busan was the "first" candidate, Roma was the "second" candidate, and Riyadh was the "third" candidate.
Therefore, South Korea** and business leaders, in the last few days before the vote, have been promoting "Busan No. 1".
This is also the reason why in the promotional video of South Korea's Shenbo, the screen is full of "1".
South Korea didn't take Saudi Arabia seriously at all, and their arrogant personality made them really think they would win.
Since Yoon Suk-yeol came to power, South Korea's diplomatic principle has been pro-Japanese and hostile to China and Russia.
South Korea, which only cares about looking at the United States, is one-sided in diplomatic relations, and Yoon Suk-yeol, who calls himself "Korea's No. 1 salesman", has made 16 overseas tours since taking office for one and a half years, setting a record for the number of South Korea's first overseas visits.
More than 32 billion won was also misappropriated from the reserve fund, citing insufficient diplomatic patrol expenses.
However, this kind of overseas visit, which set a Guinness World Record, has not brought real benefits to South Korea, and its international status is visibly declining.
I thought that with the promise of my American father and my Japanese brother, everything would be fine.
But looking at the final 119 votes to 29 votes, South Korea is likely to have suffered a betrayal, and the five good men of the United Nations have all abandoned it.
If they only know how to engage in small-group diplomacy, but they don't have real skills, and they can't even hold a scout jam, how can countries around the world rest assured that South Korea will host an "Olympiad" event that is known as the world's economy, science and technology, and culture?
After all, who wants to eat pickles every day.
South Korea's bid failed
