Chapter 875: If You Can't Beat Them, Join Them

The appointment to visit the Qingshui River at night—now the person who was supposed to go is gone!

The string she had been holding in her heart relaxed at this moment, but she felt a bit lost.

She had intended to go straight to rest after returning from the exhibition hall, after all, she had been tired for a day.

But when eating in the cafeteria, she saw Director Li give her a wink.

Thinking of being "plucked" again, she didn't even have the mood to eat.

But she hadn't gotten what she wanted yet, so how could she give up lightly?

So even if she was forcing a smile, she still gave the other party a response.

Of course, the night had just darkened, and it wasn't time yet; that kind of thing had to wait until the dead of night.

Especially since Director Li and Vice Director Jing sat in the courtyard lounge after the meal, she couldn't go upstairs directly.

If she really went back to the room, who knows what Zhou Zhou Xiaoling and the others would think.

Since they called her, she just went out to play with them.

Playing is playing, but after coming back from a round, the person who was supposed to be waiting here to open the door for her was gone.

Director Li called her, but he would never give her the door key.

Don't know what kind of problem that is!

Are leaders all this cautious?

It's as if the key had caused trouble before!

She didn't understand Director Li's habit and arrangement, and she was even more afraid to knock on the door, fearing that someone in the hallway would hear.

So not seeing Director Li meant she didn't need to accompany him tonight.

Feeling anxious, she really felt disgusted if he wanted her, but if he didn't want her, she was afraid Director Li would be annoyed with her.

How could a young girl fight an old fox? Although he wasn't a psychology expert, he had been playing with people his whole life, and his heart was already transparent, like a lotus root.

She was being played with now, and she still had to thank heaven and earth; she met Li Li Huai De, not Li Li Xuewu. If she had met this bad guy who played psychology, she wouldn't even know if she had been sold!

Never mind her; even her patron Li Li Huai De was played with.

First a bowl of chicken soup, then a basin of anxiety, and finally a remedial class on successology.

Zhou Zhou Miaomiao didn't understand what happened now; wait until the second half of the night!

Maybe she'll be able to hear Director Li's painful wailing in the middle of the night!

Who told him to be the most excited downstairs just now!

"Change! Spend money! Don't be stingy!"

Under Li Li Xuewu's fancy encouragement, he shouted the loudest!

Give 100 million to those who betray me, and I'll earn 500 million back!

Understand~ applause~

On the third day of the trade fair, Li Li Huai De didn't go to the site again, saying he went to coordinate work.

It wasn't clear what he was coordinating, but Li Li Xuewu guessed he was scared.

From the moment they entered the exhibition hall today, everyone in the rolling mill discovered that the eyes of the people around them were not quite right.

Those glaring were the office staff of the exhibiting units, and the eyes of their heads were particularly sharp.

Actually, there was no need to look at their eyes; just looking at the deflated appearance of each booth made it clear that Li Li Huai De's report yesterday had worked.

It must be said, he was right not to come today.

If he let these people see him, maybe they would backstab him when he went to the bathroom.

Even these eyes that wanted to kill were something he couldn't bear; only Li Li Xuewu had a thick face and still smiled and greeted people.

It's the posture of a winner; at this time, even if you cry with the other party, they won't thank you.

It's better to calmly accept the other party's vicious eyes, treating it all as their worship of you.

Despicability is the passport of the despicable, and nobility is the epitaph of the noble.

If you have the ability, come and hit me!

Li Li Xuewu naturally wouldn't be this rampant; instead, he praised his leader's high-handed methods in front of the other party!

Li Li Huai De didn't come, but the pot he had to carry absolutely couldn't be less.

Watching Li Xue followed behind Vice Director Jing, listening to her second brother's words, and her eyeballs were about to fly into the sky.

In this special era, it seems that people like her second brother, who have no principles, no awe, and don't spare any means, would instead be like a fish in water and omnipotent.

And those who truly regard themselves as noble often think they are gentlemen, have principles, and have awe for everything.

"Fear the mandate of heaven, fear the great, fear the words of the sages."

They think they can stick to their moral bottom line, which often binds their hands and feet, making them live stifled in this era.

In Watching Li Xue's view, they are purely looking for suffering and looking for sin.

If you want to talk about playing with minds, who can play better than her second brother?

You say they have already offended him, yet they still dare to blatantly imitate his creativity.

Isn't this equivalent to mocking him on one side while following behind his butt on the other?

Are they stupid?!

He could dig a hole for you even without you following him; if you follow him, won't he lead you into a ditch!

The small stage was removed, the balloons were gone, the dance troupe was wilted, and the live-streaming host didn't shout with his neck stretched out anymore; they all looked at the rolling mill delegation like big resentful species.

Jing Jing Yunong touched the goosebumps on her arms; under the gaze of these people, she only felt her back go cold.

"Won't there be any problems?"

"Hopefully!"

Li Li Xuewu also had a worried look at this moment, walking and saying to her: "Hopefully they can take the initiative to make some problems!"

"???"

Jing Jing Yunong's eyes widened like big light bulbs, looking at Li Li Xuewu with a face full of confusion, thinking he was scared and saying nonsense.

Watching Li Xue walked behind her, her eyeballs rolled again, thinking her second brother must have some bad ideas again.

Li Li Xuewu twitched the corner of his mouth, glanced at the people around him, and quietly explained to Jing Jing Yunong: "I didn't prepare any creative programs today; if they can make things happen, it saves me from doing it."

"..." (─. ─||)

Be a person!

Jing Jing Yunong couldn't help but have such a sentence pop up in her heart, and for some reason, she had an urge to stay away from Li Li Xuewu.

The crowd arrived at the booth under a silent gaze.

And the security guards who were stationed here last night were all bitter; seeing Zhou Yao bring people to change shifts, they had a feeling of escaping the sea of suffering.

"What's wrong?"

Zhou Yao had long discovered that the attitude of the surrounding exhibiting units was not good; at this moment, seeing the security guards like this, she took the initiative to ask: "Did they come to make trouble?"

"That's not it."

The security guard on duty poured out his bitterness: "But just coming to the booth one by one to glare is scary enough."

"Finished! What about the ability in the factory!"

Zhou Yao showed a milk-fierce expression and educated them: "Can't you glare back?!"

"I glared back!"

The security guard emphasized: "I really glared back at the beginning, but... later there were too many people glaring at me, I couldn't glare back..."

Glaring might be the most vicious attack method in the exhibition hall; anyway, Li Li Xuewu hadn't encountered anything more ruthless.

Other booths were packing up their performance stages, and the rolling mill side also packed them up.

There were no more performance ceremonies, no gongs and drums; the exhibition hall organizers held a meeting yesterday and prohibited excessive publicity.

Of course, for the rolling mill delegation, which was a self-destructive little expert that shouted "thief" while being a thief and cut itself off from the vast ocean of people, and was determined not to come next time, they had no way at all.

This kind of unscrupulous, reckless, un-uniting, and friend-making bastard exhibiting unit—who could do anything about them?

The key is that people can really stir things up! They added glory to the leaders!

For two consecutive days, they took the first place in the highest transaction order ranking, and for two consecutive days, they took the first place in the highest total transaction amount ranking.

You can't say that; this is also taking advantage of being the first to strike.

Heavy industry might have one big item exceeding a thousand or ten thousand small items from the rolling mill.

However, their negotiations are very slow; how can the number of orders keep up with the rolling mill's hot scene from the start?

This is called the starting gun firing, and I'm almost at the finish line.

Playing tricks in the first few days, occupying the first opportunity, has already formed an advertising advantage; the customers naturally want to come over and take a look.

Especially since so many orders were signed in the first two days, many customers got samples, naturally having a brand promotion effect.

Besides, excessive publicity in the exhibition hall is not allowed, but it didn't say it's not allowed outside.

The battle has just begun; when waiting for the venue, you have to continue publicity, and inside the hotel, you also have to continue to dig deep into potential.

Even if the other party doesn't purchase the Rolling Mill's products, they still have to take a few Red Books back with them, right?

This time we give you books to read; next time, who knows what will happen.

If you come to learn this time, and come again after learning well next time, isn't that one step ahead?

Besides, this is our most advanced ideological reading material; why not give a copy to your wife and children!

If the wife and children don't like it, give it to relatives, elders, close friends, or colleagues.

100,000 red-covered books—Li Li Xuewu doesn't intend to ship them back.

Except for the ones given away, the rest have to break even; we can't lose money doing business.

Ng Fung Hong people didn't come in the morning; they also have investigation tasks.

Anyway, the cooperation intention is already there; both sides need time to prepare plans, and talking now won't result in anything.

The trade fair time is still long; Li Li Huai De and Li Li Xuewu just need to go back before the end of the month.

So Li Li Xuewu's main job today is to receive foreign businessmen; it has to be a big order; if it's small, Jing Jing Yunong's team is responsible.

Selena called him in the morning, wanting to ask about the export of 66-6 type rifles, but was rejected by him.

This woman is really ignorant; why does she always think about guns!

Didn't she see that he was busy with serious work; where would he have time for romance!

Did she take a fancy to the 66-6 type sniper rifle? She was just using the gun's length to hook Li Li Xuewu.

I am a gentleman!

Li Li Xuewu wouldn't be seduced by this sinicized foreign girl; he likes this kind of office ambiguity the least.

Before, maybe there could have been something, but now Selena represents Ai Ai Jiaqing and serves as Deputy General Manager at Oriental Trading; the significance represented by her identity is different.

How can he say he is her big boss? If something really happened, how could they work together in the future?

Everyone present knows that Li Li Xuewu is the most gentlemanly; how could he put himself in such an awkward situation?

Gentleman Li Li Xuewu received quite a few customers this morning; he did the job of a big client manager very smoothly.

However, by the third day, small commodities weren't popular anymore; good is good, bad is bad; those who really wanted to order had already finished purchasing on the first and second days.

Especially after hearing that they were negotiating food agency with Ng Fung Hong and all-category agency projects with Hong Kong businessman Oriental Trading, Hong Kong businessmen started to take a cautious attitude toward the goods here.

Hong Kong businessmen didn't come, and Japanese businessmen weren't interested in such small commodities; instead, Western European businessmen came more.

Li Li Xuewu didn't think there would be any big orders at the booth; the rolling products produced by the rolling mill itself were all accessories.

For example, tractor tracks—these were all for tractor factories and some other factory.

For example, various channel steels, I-beams, galvanized sheets, etc. —all were for construction companies.

You could say there were many cast iron parts for agricultural cooperatives.

Including well handles, hoes, shovels, plow plates, plow frames, etc., but these goods all had corresponding production plans.

Even if they could take external orders, foreign businessmen didn't look down on these things.

Actually, coming this time, the ones that could fight were still those hardware goods, as well as canned food, etc.

There were also Hong Kong businessmen who came to talk about cooperation in Chinese herbal medicine, but the rolling mill's practice of only selling preparations and not raw materials still made these shrewd businessmen shrink back.

In Hong Kong, there is a batch of relatively traditional Chinese herbal medicine processing enterprises.

Raw materials mainly come from the mainland.

Isn't this nonsense? Hong Kong is only such a small place; where could it satisfy the raw material supply of Chinese herbal medicine?

Every year, countless Chinese herbal medicines are purchased from the mainland, all taken back to be made into preparations and sold throughout Southeast Asia.

Now the rolling mill wants to find not raw material purchasers, but sales channel partners.

To talk about agency, Oriental Trading could also represent Chinese medicine preparation business, but after all, it's not professional and doesn't have perfect sales channels.

This isn't the rolling mill's main business; it's a project collaborated with the Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine and several other units.

Of course, the current raw materials still mainly rely on the Frontier Office and Jicheng Office to coordinate, and the preparations are also provided by the Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

But in the future, the rolling mill wants to collaborate with other units to set up a Chinese medicine processing plant.

This has already been planned in the construction project of the joint enterprise's third-industry industrial park.

Do you think Chinese herbal medicine preparations are like in ancient times, with a few people with braids holding a medicine pestle and selling hard work?

It's long since not that; in the mainland, under the universal medical insurance system that has begun to popularize Western medicine and barefoot doctors, making Chinese patent medicine preparations like this would be urgent.

As early as 1076, the mainland had the "Heji Bureau," which was the earliest Chinese patent medicine pharmaceutical factory.

Heji Bureau pharmaceutical production had formulas, supervision, inspection, etc.

Among them, the formula was compiled into the "Taiping Huimin Heji Bureau Prescription," which is our country's earliest pharmaceutical specification.

Last time he went to Tianjin, Li Li Xuewu accompanied Li Li Huai De to visit Darentang; in Tianjin, they had their own Chinese patent medicine pharmaceutical factory.

Now, Shanghai's technology for making concentrated important preparations is unique, which is due to reasons such as the gathering of talents and developed economy back then.

Of course, the Beijing local faction also has its unique pharmaceutical methods and technology; setting up a pharmaceutical factory isn't difficult, and raw material supply isn't a problem either.

The most important thing is how to sell it.

Selling to domestic pharmacies in this era naturally doesn't make money, at least not big money.

If they can't meet a certain profit expectation, Li Li Huai De will definitely be vague about the investment in this area.

Li Li Xuewu is now planning for him either a large factory, such as a shipyard, which is very face-saving to take out.

Or something exquisite and practical, which doesn't look like it makes money, but can actually let him satisfy his addiction to showing off, such as nail clippers.

He has to give him a surprise to make him work hard to sell.

Chinese medicine isn't urgent; the technology for planting herbs on Mount Miyun Mountain is still being explored, and there will be plenty to do in the future.

As the saying goes, heaven doesn't starve the blind sparrow; Li Li Xuewu, this fat sparrow, is always being fed by heaven.

Before the noon break, an Italian customer named Andrew came to the booth.

Of course, you just listen to this foreign name; no one can remember it.

This Andrew is an old man, the kind with a white beard, still looking energetic while looking at the exhibits.

Li Li Xuewu had just finished arranging for everyone to eat and said two words to Jing Jing Yunong when he saw him wandering around the kitchenware booth.

Respecting the old and loving the young is a traditional virtue; Li Li Xuewu naturally couldn't say that he took the initiative to greet the old man because he was easy to bully.

"Hello~"

"Hi~"

The old man hadn't paid attention to the booth receptionist who wanted to introduce him; at this moment, seeing Li Li Xuewu come over to greet him, he politely replied.

He had a middle-aged male translator standing beside him; Li Li Xuewu first asked the other party if the old man could speak English.

After getting the answer that he couldn't, Li Li Xuewu could only communicate through the translator.

Basically, such communication carries subjective narrowness; after all, the translator is a person, not a machine without feelings.

Li Li Xuewu politely asked his name, knew it was Zhou Yang, first shook hands with him, and then shook hands with the old man under Zhou Yang's introduction.

The old man could see that Li Li Xuewu had an extraordinary bearing, so he gave him enough face and talked politely for two sentences.

From the conversation, it was learned that this old man really wasn't an ordinary person; he was in the yacht business.

Don't think there were no yachts in this era; in fact, luxury modern yachts already existed.

The mainland naturally didn't have anyone playing with them, or rather, if someone was playing, you wouldn't know, but there were many people playing with yachts in Hong Kong.

The old man was doing business in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia, and of course, he was also doing business in Japan and surrounding countries.

There are many small islands in the Pacific; rich people buying islands isn't a patent of later generations; didn't Liang Diushen, who played with reform, buy an island in Sweden to play with back then?

If you have an island, you have to have a boat; if you have a boat, you can't play with cargo ships; you have to play with yachts.

So you see, ten or twenty years later, there were yacht clubs in Canton; wasn't it influenced by Hong Kong?

You say there's no one playing in the country; it's probably because people don't play with yachts, they play with... um, can't say.

Tridents can be used as private planes, let alone anything else.

You don't know how wild the cadres who walked out of the war and fire era were.

Andrew looked at the kitchenware booth and really studied it carefully, including the workmanship and various details.

After looking, he didn't say anything; he questioned the small hardware on the toolbox side and wanted to look at that too.

Li Li Xuewu just treated him as a wanderer and arranged for the receptionist to go eat, while he received the other party here.

Even if it's a wandering customer, you can't drive them away; business isn't done like that.

Li Li Xuewu didn't care how other booths in the exhibition hall did it; as long as they came to their booth, they could look and ask as they pleased; whether they bought or not depended on the other party's personal willingness.

Here, Li Li Xuewu would absolutely not let the drama of 4S shops looking at people and serving dishes happen in later generations.

In this world, only he slaps others' faces; he absolutely wouldn't let others slap his face, and even less would he let others realize the cool plot of stepping on him.

Andrew turned and looked at all the goods on the booth, and finally proposed to chat with Li Li Xuewu.

Li Li Xuewu was very happy, signaled to the lounge, and invited him over to sit.

On the way to the lounge, Andrew started to make trouble, first asking Li Li Xuewu if he could speak German?

Translator Zhou Yang looked at Andrew with strange eyes, but still translated for the other party.

Li Li Xuewu smiled and shook his head apologetically upon hearing the translation, indicating he couldn't.

Andrew smiled helplessly and signaled to continue walking.

He gave up, but Li Li Xuewu didn't give up and asked him a sentence in Russian directly.

Seeing Andrew didn't respond, he greeted him in French under Zhou Yang's dissatisfied eyes.

This time Andrew understood, smiled pleasantly, shook hands with Li Li Xuewu again, and started communicating in French.

Zhou Yang's eyes started to become unkind; he took the initiative to interrupt the two's pleasantries and asked in an icy tone: "Do I need to ask my colleagues to come over and help? Or do you need me to ask the comrades from the Export Corporation to come over and participate in the negotiation?"

"Relax, young man."

Andrew, this old man, was very good at being a person; he smiled and patted Zhou Yang's arm, explaining that he wouldn't talk about cooperation with Li Li Xuewu, just chatting casually.

Seeing that the other party was about to sit down, Zhou Yang was very suspicious of the other party's motives and didn't sit down immediately; instead, he called the exhibition hall's mobile personnel and requested a French translator to come and take over.

He wasn't suspicious that Andrew, this old man, was a bad person, but suspicious that Andrew and Li Li Xuewu were not good people.

He was a staff member of the trade fair; the things that happened here for two consecutive days had spread among the staff's mouths.

The one who stirs things up, plays tricks, and doesn't do human things is the Red Star Rolling Mill exhibition area.

And this man with a scar on his face, dressed in a neat black and white outfit, and wearing a badge on his chest, is the culprit.

What is this called?

Good things don't go out, bad things spread a thousand miles.

Li Li Xuewu didn't know; if he knew, he would definitely cry injustice; he was sitting at home, and the injustice came from the sky.

These things were all done by Li Li Huai De and had nothing to do with him directly.

Li Li Xuewu also saw Zhou Yang's caution and his wariness of himself.

Simply, he told Zhou Yang in Chinese that he wanted to invite Mr. Andrew and him, as well as his colleagues who were coming, to have a working meal here at noon.

He didn't use French, just Chinese, and signaled to Zhou Yang, who was slightly stunned, to translate for Andrew.

After Zhou Yang translated and got Andrew's formal reply, Li Li Xuewu then got up and went to the logistics department to arrange the food.

There are regulations for the noon break to eat; the food is all brought from the cafeteria here, and it's just like that whether it's good or bad.

Li Li Xuewu specifically requested the logistics staff to help him get four portions of food, not too good, just average.

Entertaining distinguished guests, Li Li Xuewu not using that top-notch tea was already polite; the order hadn't been negotiated yet, and they weren't family, so why eat anything good!

He was also doing this to leave time for the foreign affairs department staff and also time for his colleagues who were serving food, so he sat in the backstage and waited.

Until the French translator from the foreign affairs department came, and the food from the logistics side was brought over, he then carried it back to the lounge.

The noon break has regulations; customers can continue to look at exhibits, but they cannot negotiate or understand the situation because there is no one to receive them.

Including translator Zhou Yang, they all have to go back to eat and rest at this time point, and can continue to serve customers in the afternoon.

The booth side is also like this; service personnel and exhibition personnel all have to eat and take a noon break.

Haven't heard of it, right? The wage earners in this era are really awesome!

Later generations emphasize people-oriented, but in the end, they can't do the people-oriented of this era.

The more you emphasize something, the more you lack it.

Andrew looked at the food Li Li Xuewu brought and smiled strangely.

However, because Li Li Xuewu prepared a spoon for him, he didn't feel slighted.

Because including Li Li Xuewu and the translation staff, their food was all the same.

No meat, let alone specialty dishes; ordinary stir-fried green vegetables, plus a braised potato.

Canton's rice doesn't taste good; the logistics staff just said it was local rice, very coarse.

Li Li Xuewu didn't mind and brought the foreigner to recall the bitterness and think of the sweetness; even if he was eating... forget it, he couldn't compare to the Third Master, he really couldn't eat it.

At first, Zhou Yang and his colleagues were a bit embarrassed and declined, wanting to go back to eat.

But seeing Andrew not moving and not wanting to go back with him, he had no choice.

Li Li Xuewu guessed that their embarrassment mostly came from their misunderstanding of him just now, thinking he wasn't a good person.

It doesn't matter; many people have stereotypical impressions; if you allow young girls and young wives to like you, you have to allow young men to dislike you.

You can't let yourself get all the good things!

So he very politely pulled the two to sit down and eat together, which could be considered treating foreign friends.

Zhou Yang looked at the food in the lunch box, his mouth twitching; he really couldn't link this meal to the word "entertain."

He didn't know that there were meat dishes in the cafeteria here; in order to take care of foreign friends, they even opened an external service window.

However, what Li Li Xuewu presented was the cheapest food, without any meaning of entertaining.

Li Li Xuewu was saying polite words about simple meals to express his feelings, but where were these polite words? They were clearly the truth!

Zhou Yang secretly glanced at Li Li Xuewu; the amusement in the corner of his eyes couldn't be held back; this cadre from Beijing actually had an "honest" side?!

Li Li Xuewu waited for Zhou Yang's French translator colleague to come before he started chatting with Andrew in French.

Andrew first praised Li Li Xuewu's French for being good and said his work style was very international.

After saying that, he looked at the food in his hand; there was a sentence he didn't say: the person is just a bit stingy~

Li Li Xuewu smiled and explained his family situation, bragging without paying taxes, praising his brother and sister-in-law, and mentioning that his sister-in-law was a language genius and he learned French from her.

This was a loophole; his sister-in-law was very good at learning foreign languages, but it seemed she didn't know French; he had to find textbooks for her to learn later.

Otherwise, he couldn't say his French was learned from a black girl in Africa!

You don't say! In terms of language talent, black people can really take it out.

In Africa, Li Li Xuewu felt that there were probably more people who could speak French than English; historical reasons, won't elaborate.

Andrew and Zhou Yang were bluffed by Li Li Xuewu's bragging, especially when Li Li Xuewu said his sister-in-law learned foreign languages by flipping through books, which scared them.

Andrew didn't have much reaction, but Zhou Yang and his colleague, who specialized in language work, were shocked and didn't believe it.

But Li Li Xuewu was a deputy-division-level cadre, and looking at him, he didn't look like he was lying.

A teacher at Huaqing, speaking of which, should be able to be this powerful...

It's really hard to say; this is an era where heroes emerge and gods fight; you say how powerful people can be.

Otherwise, how did a cadre like Li Li Xuewu learn foreign languages without going abroad?

Especially since he knew quite a few foreign languages; the Russian he had to learn itself wouldn't be mentioned, he knew English, and he knew French—look at how capable you are; why don't you go work in the foreign affairs department!

This really couldn't be explained; it was mentioned before that English was a compulsory foreign language in the previous life, just like Russian in this life.

French was learned when on a business trip, purely a personal hobby.

You say Li Li Xuewu loves languages, or loves French?

Not at all; with his lazy personality, how could he love boring knowledge like languages?

Learning French in Africa had to start with a white girl there... the two of them... hehe, both liked that thing...

Later... later he returned to the country; the girl said come play when you have time, next time I'll introduce good sisters to you...

He spent quite a bit of money, but Li Li Xuewu didn't care; he just treated it as learning a foreign language~

You say learning French is useless in mainland government units?

Look, isn't it useful now!

Have to thank the white girl from back then; she practiced with her body, taught by example, and worked hard!

Saying the other party's foreign language is good is the pickup method Andrew learned after coming to the mainland.

Before, it was all used on translators to ease the relationship between each other; now it's used on Li Li Xuewu.

He originally wanted to be polite for a sentence or two and enter the theme directly, but didn't expect Li Li Xuewu to be so capable of chatting, just chatting about idle things.

Zhou Yang's French translator colleague was eating and stealing glances at Andrew's expression.

He came naturally to supervise and serve; since the customer didn't need service, naturally only supervision was left.

Li Li Xuewu taught Andrew a truth with practical actions: don't talk about work at the dinner table.

After all four finished eating, Li Li Xuewu let Zhou Yang and his colleague go to the other side to rest; he wanted to chat with Mr. Andrew alone.

Zhou Yang changed his face first and seriously reminded Li Li Xuewu of the discipline of foreign affairs reception.

Li Li Xuewu also showed his credentials to him with a serious face.

It wasn't the rolling mill's, but the Garrison District's.

Zhou Yang didn't expect Li Li Xuewu to have this layer of identity, especially since the level of this identity wasn't low.

He wasn't in this system and didn't have the right to decide, so he hesitated and didn't know how to refuse Li Li Xuewu.

If Li Li Xuewu was purely the head of the exhibiting unit, he wouldn't have to consider the influence.

But Li Li Xuewu's Garrison District identity, plus the sniper rifle placed at the booth, gave him reason to execute his work.

Before he could speak, Li Li Xuewu waved his hand at Andrew, signaled him to wait a moment, patted Zhou Yang and his colleague's arms, and took them to a seat on the side.

"Yesterday we finalized the food-related agency agreement with Ng Fung Hong."

"Dongfeng Shipping signed a shipping contract with Ng Fung Hong and signed a ship purchase contract with our factory's branch, Yingcheng Shipyard."

"Now our factory has the idea of developing the shipbuilding industry, and even going abroad to participate in more shipbuilding business."

Li Li Xuewu told the truth, and the verifiable truth, letting the two understand the basic situation here.

After the two looked at each other and then looked at him, he then frankly said: "I want to get him; either I dig out his technology, or I dig out his sales channels; you can't affect my work."

"Deputy Team Leader Li."

Zhou Yang looked at Li Li Xuewu and reminded: "You are now at the trade fair venue; negotiations with customers must be supervised and executed by representatives of the Export Corporation."

"I'm not selling goods, understand?"

Li Li Xuewu looked at the two, put his hand on their shoulders, and said seriously: "I'm selling technology and manufacturing capacity; going through the trade fair would take a hundred lifetimes!"

"Besides."

He turned back to signal Andrew, said to the two: "Do you think if the Export Corporation's representative sits here, that old man will be willing to cooperate with us? Does the representative have the ability to dig out the other party's sincerity?"

Zhou Yang looked at his colleague again, hesitated and said: "We have discipline..."

"But you are only providing translation services; even if it's supervision, you weren't asked to speak, right!"

Li Li Xuewu patted his shoulder and said: "I guarantee I won't sell goods; you and your colleague just sit on the side and listen; let's treat this matter as having no relationship with the Export Corporation, can we?"

After saying that, he took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Zhou Yang, saying: "This is my address and contact information; come to Beijing and I'll be responsible for entertaining you, guaranteeing good food and drink, and also playing well."

Zhou Yang flipped the hard business card in his hand, his eyes wandering to his colleague beside him.

His colleague's eyes moved slightly and asked: "I can sit on the side and listen?"

Li Li Xuewu nodded and said: "As long as you don't disturb us and give us space."

"That's good."

This person was very straightforward, pointed at the business card in Zhou Yang's hand, and said to Li Li Xuewu: "I want one too."

"Hehehe~"

Li Li Xuewu laughed, took out a business card and handed it to the other party, saying: "As long as you arrive in Beijing, if you have anything, come to this place to find me; just show the business card."

After saying that, he ignored the two and returned to Andrew's seat.

And Zhou Yang and his colleague looked at each other and found a place not too far or too close to sit.

The logistics staff had good eyes and served hot tea to the two tables, which made Zhou Yang very satisfied.

Getting the friendship of a Garrison District cadre, and this person is also a deputy-division-level cadre of a big factory, the key is that he is young.

This favor is really too valuable, which had to make him and his colleague nod.

Li Li Xuewu also said he wouldn't talk about commodity procurement business, so it didn't touch the bottom line of their work.

If this kind of business goes outside the exhibition hall to talk, they can't do anything; people have ways to meet privately.

Li Li Xuewu chose to sit here and talk to give Andrew a positive image, and also to give them face.

Beijing men give face, so they naturally won't act like villains.

The French translator carefully listened to what Li Li Xuewu and the others were talking about for a while, but after listening for a long time, they were all professional topics discussing yacht sales, manufacturing technology, and the current external environment for sales, so he slowly lost interest in eavesdropping.

People keep their word, and he doesn't want to be a villain, so he started chatting about idle things with the business card Li Li Xuewu gave them.

Hard paper business card, with silver edges pressed on it; there were only addresses and phone numbers on the card, and the head was a string of encoded numbers: Jia-1001; they didn't understand what this meant either.

They naturally wouldn't understand; this is Li Li Xuewu's identity number at the club, and also a code for conducting external relationship exchanges.

Who would show their name when doing bad things outside!

Li Li Xuewu had both real and fake business cards in his card holder; sometimes he gave real ones, sometimes he gave fake ones.

Of course, the ones given to both were real; isn't a foreign affairs translator also an interpersonal relationship?

Some people like to get rich, so they are willing to save money, but Li Li Xuewu isn't.

Money is no longer a necessary survival means for him; relationships are.

So others save money, he saves friendship.

This business card is a piece of waste paper in the other party's hand, but one day when the other party comes to the door, whether it's a visit or asking for help, in terms of relationship, it will develop further.

Since they came to the door, most of them are here to be friends.

Li Li Xuewu pays a little bit of hard work in exchange for a network of relationships; isn't this deal worth it?

Andrew glanced at the translator over there, and seeing that the other party didn't care about this side anymore, he frankly asked Li Li Xuewu: "Now let's talk about the real thing."

"Of course."

Li Li Xuewu tapped the tea table, smiled slightly, and asked: "How did Mr. Andrew pay attention to our shipyard?"

"I said just wandering around."

Andrew tentatively looked at Li Li Xuewu, and seeing his eyes narrowed slightly, he continued: "You definitely won't believe it."

Li Li Xuewu shrugged his shoulders and said: "If you like to talk nonsense, I can accompany you to chat here for three days and three nights without repeating."

Andrew didn't expect to purse his lips, then smiled and explained: "I have business in Hong Kong, so naturally I noticed Dongfeng Shipping, especially since it signed a big order just after it was established."

"Oh?"

Li Li Xuewu narrowed his eyes slightly, smiled and asked: "Mr. Andrew not only sells yachts but also involves shipping business?"

After saying that, he turned the teacup lid and pursued in a calm tone: "It wouldn't be that Dongfeng Shipping just arrived and affected your business, right?"

There is no love without reason in this world, and even less hatred without reason; people come to the door, there is always some root cause.

Andrew seemed to have inquired about the rolling mill's strength, didn't mind, pursed his lips, and said: "A little bit of my investment, it's a business partner who is operating it."

"Hope it didn't bring trouble to your business."

Li Li Xuewu perfunctorily said a sentence without sincerity, with a look of "I just grabbed your business, so what?"

Andrew looked at the other party, knowing that it's normal for a new ship to appear in the shipping industry, but it's not normal for a fleet with twenty-seven thousand-ton cargo ships to appear in the shipping industry.

Signing big orders, having Ng Fung Hong port support, and being able to get the offshore shipping business at Tianjin Port terminal.

Most importantly, this fleet isn't duckweed; it has an industrial mother port; you call this a new fleet?
