Rebirth Enchanted Xiangjiang

At the press conference of his first re-election campaign, Nixon vowed to the American public: “No one in the White House team and in this government is currently employed is involved in this absurd event.” He also pretended to be calm. He said, “It’s not that this kind of thing happened, because some people who are too enthusiastic in the campaign will always do something wrong. If you try to cover up this kind of thing, it’s sad.”

A series of activities, especially the president's performance, temporarily deceived the public.As a result of the general election, Nixon defeated the Democratic candidate George McGovern by a rare overwhelming advantage and was re-elected.Just as Nixon and his assistants were celebrating and ecstatic, one after another anonymous letters were sent to the court, informing them that the Watergate incident was hidden.

The Democratic-dominant Congress decided to set up a special investigation committee to conduct a thorough investigation of the presidential campaign.Sure enough, on March 23, 1973, McCord exposed the White House counsel Dean in court.Nixon decided to abandon the car to protect the handsome, making Dean a scapegoat.

Dean is not a character to be slaughtered, he is not reconciled to capture.When he learned that his crime could be sentenced to 40 years in prison, he took the initiative to give a three-hour confession and disclosure to the prosecutor, hoping to atone for the crime in exchange for pardon.

In order to restore the situation, Nixon issued a statement again, saying that he did not know about the Watergate incident in advance, and did not obstruct the investigation afterwards, and defended the wiretapping activities, saying that these were for national security and were legal and necessary. From the time of President Roosevelt In the beginning, every president did this.He tried again to use the trust of the American people in him to get through.

Unfortunately, a larger time bomb exploded.The Watergate Committee has grasped a new situation: since the beginning of 1971, Nixon ordered the installation of an eavesdropping system in the White House office in order to record conversations and phone calls with his subordinates.The committee asked Nixon to hand over the relevant audio tapes and documents.

Nixon refused to hand it over on the grounds of administrative privileges and brought the matter to the Court of Appeal.Unexpectedly, after three weeks of deliberation, most judges believe that the president must also be bound by law and must hand over audio tapes and documents.

Nixon became furious and ordered the removal of Cox, the special prosecutor investigating the Watergate incident.

This stabbed a hornet's nest, and American television networks immediately interrupted normal programs and reported this explosive news to the American public.

The public's reaction was like the eruption of a volcano, the protest telegram was overwhelming like snow flakes, and public opinion compared Nixon with Hitler.Even the religious circles and the publications that originally supported Nixon angrily accused Nixon.Fresh-spirited college students organized large-scale demonstrations.

The entire United States is like a pot of anger.Driven by public opinion, the House of Representatives decided to impeach the president.Nixon was determined to resist to the end. While destroying the content on the tape that was not good for him, he continued to emphasize administrative privileges, saying that "will follow the precedents followed and defended by successive presidents from Washington to Johnson, and will never do anything to weaken the US presidency." .

The phone records he handed over were riddled with holes, and a lot of important content was replaced by words such as inaudible and no intelligence value.Nixon's actions further angered the public, and the chief of the Supreme Court ruled that Nixon must surrender the relevant tapes.

Nixon ordered the Attorney General Richardson to remove Cox from his position.But Richardson refused the president's request and resigned.After the Deputy Minister of Justice Raquel Shaws took over as Minister of Justice, he also resigned because he refused to remove the special prosecutor.In the end, the No. 3 figure in the Ministry of Justice, Bok, became the acting minister of the Ministry of Justice before agreeing to remove the special prosecutor.

Nixon even mobilized the FBI to blockade the offices of the special prosecutor, the attorney general, and the undersecretary, announcing the abolition of the special federal prosecutor's office and transferring the investigation power of the case back to the Ministry of Justice.In the face of Nixon's abuse of administrative power to defend himself, he attracted serious criticism from the public.

On October 31, 1973, the U.S. House of Representatives decided that the Judiciary Committee of the House would be responsible for investigating and collecting Nixon’s criminal evidence.

Nixon sent a letter to Secretary of State Kissinger at 11:35 on August 8 to announce that he would resign the next day. Not only that, Nixon had to make a television speech to the country and announced his resignation as president in front of the American people. He became the first and only president in American history to step down due to a scandal.

A Watergate incident made the Watergate Tower, which is actually not a famous place in the United States, become famous overnight, but it was a scandal.

It is also famous for the politician president. Compared with the Watergate Building, which is famous for Nixon, the Kennedy Art Center next to it is much more frontal.

This white square building has a double meaning for the United States.First, it is a national cultural center. Since President Eisenhower, it is planned to establish such a national cultural center.Secondly, it is named after U.S. President Kennedy to commemorate the young assassinated president. For more than 10 years, the Kennedy Art Center has occupied a pivotal position in American cultural circles.

It is such a cultural center of great significance in the United States that has ushered in a personal film exhibition of a Chinese on this day.

And it is not a film festival held by the Chinese themselves, but the American Film Academy, which is located on a hill in Hollywood, which trains professionals for the United States and the Hollywood film industry.

Such an academy held Lin Qingxia's solo film exhibition at the Kennedy Art Center. It can be seen that Lin Qingxia's film achievements are recognized by professional film schools in the United States.

Don’t be flattering, it’s very objective to say that the American film industry is indeed the strongest in the world, otherwise film talents from all over the world will not squeeze their heads and want to break into the United States into Hollywood.

Of course, Lin Qingxia’s cattle breaking is not only the American Film Academy’s solo film exhibition for her, she is also the first Chinese guest invited to participate in the inauguration of the President of the United States twice, and the first person in Asia.

As early as 1981, Lin Qingxia was invited to attend the inauguration ceremony of Reagan as a guest of honor.

At the beginning of this year, it was Bush for others, and Bush for Qiao Feng. The new US president also invited Lin Qingxia as a distinguished guest to attend his inauguration.
