The hotel where the delegation was staying was located on the lakeside boulevard and had a great view of the Rhine from the window. The hotel is decorated in a traditional Swiss style and is quaint. In the middle of the lobby is a solid wood spiral staircase leading to all floors, and guests with luggage can take the elevator at the rear of the staircase side to go up and down the stairs. The walls of the rooms are decorated with traditional patterned wallcovering and brown siding, ranging in subtle or intense colors. Classical-style dark flower curtains, drawn-out curtains, and furniture with strong European characteristics decorate each room with generosity, harmony and elegance. Even the telephones in the rooms are very classic brass tortoiseshell manual dial-up telephones. ... ...

Nevertheless, there is nothing but modern amenities in this hotel. Each room is also equipped with a large terrace with rattan tables and chairs, so guests can relax and enjoy the view while sipping a cup of coffee. For those who love sports, there are a full range of fitness facilities on site. Also, as soon as you go out there is a beautiful avenue around the lake, you can choose to go for a jog or rent a bicycle from the hotel to ride.

The hotel is best known for its dining. On the ground floor, the Memories restaurant, which specializes in Mediterranean cuisine, has been awarded two Michelin stars for several consecutive years. In addition to the amazing food, it is also the strict quality assurance of the ingredients. High-quality ingredients are used in every dish, and only rough processing is done. The result is a light yet surprising dish with a wonderful natural taste between the chews. Every day at lunch or dinner, people can see countless well-dressed men and women waiting in the lobby to eat.

Early the next morning, at the recommendation of Ning Haoran, all the members of the delegation tasted the homemade croissants of this hotel during breakfast. It is said that the croissants of the Memories are famous throughout the Greater Sulek region. After the meal, everyone walked to the TH office building.

The canton of Hausen is a very international industrial state, and it is not new to see foreigners here, but at once you see so many oriental faces, and they are walking through the old town in groups of well-dressed people, and the pedestrians on the road are very curious.

After the group arrived at the TH office, Erdmann, accompanied by Lin Xia, stepped forward to greet them. About one-half of the participants in the delegation had met Erdmann during the Nanjing meeting, and there was no strangeness to the communication. Erdmann introduced August, Undersecretary for Economic Affairs in Hausen, Marcus and Uri in charge of LS in TH, and Hubert, a partner at PWC's Stephen and Fischer. The latter two have also attended the Nanjing conference and talked to many of them, and Stephen has even visited some companies. At this time, the reunion is very cordial. Stephen hugged several entrepreneurs with a smile on his face.

Everyone got up one after another to exchange business cards, and the scene was a little chaotic for a while. Ning Haoran whispered a few words to Yin Jie, and then beckoned Erdmann to simply list the people in Haosen, while Yin Jie guided the members of the delegation to come forward and shake hands one by one and exchange business cards. She herself whispered the names, positions, and companies of the Chinese representatives to August and others, and translated the greetings between the two sides by the way.

After everyone was seated, Erdmann welcomed the delegation with a speech and gave a brief account of the meeting.

Marcus gave an overview of the investment climate in the canton of Hausen and its special policies to attract investment. Prior to this, based on the feedback from the Nanjing meeting, Yin Jie proposed that Marcus adjust the content of the PPT accordingly to ensure that it can cover the interests of most entrepreneurs, and at the same time deepen the introduction in specific areas. Judging from the on-site response, the effect of the adjustment is very good. Stephen introduced the BCC model and optimal cross-border tax planning for building a regional business control platform based in the state of Haosen, while Hubert introduced the legal problems that Chinese companies usually encounter when investing in Europe and how to avoid them.

The first half of the question time was almost entirely about the preferential policies for attracting investment and the state government's incentives for specific industries. The question was addressed directly to August. August gave a brief answer, introduced the cooperation between TH and the state government on the LS project, and then directly called Erdmann to answer other questions on his behalf. Only then did the entrepreneurs in the delegation realize that the scope of the state government's mandate for TH is so large that it has fully encompassed the entire field of attracting overseas investment. Within this scope, TH has the right to formulate its own regional development strategy, and even has the right to draft relevant drafts and submit them to the state government for approval, and then the state legislature can form state-wide regulations for implementation.

This introduction greatly enhanced the confidence of the entrepreneurs present in LS and helped Yin Jie greatly in his future work.

To Yin Jie's surprise, Uri also attended this meeting. He sat in silence in a corner, listening intently, keeping his eyes on a few specific people. These people are from specific companies that Yin Jie pointed out to him. These companies are either traditional manufacturing enterprises facing transformation and upgrading, or high-tech manufacturing enterprises. If these companies invest in Haosen, their goal will not only be to develop the market, but also to set up R&D centers to attract EU scientific and technological talents, or to carry out joint R&D with relevant institutions in country S.

This is Uri's area of expertise. In addition to modern manufacturing companies, he is responsible for the Rhine Industrial Park, which is home to a considerable number of research institutes, design companies, and logistics centers.

As he expected, the representative of Huazhi Technology Group first raised the question of the feasibility of setting up a European R&D center. Under Erdmann's introduction, Uri took the podium to give a detailed introduction to the Rheinland Industrial Park, focusing on the park's public laboratory projects, as well as the park's scientific and technological collaboration network connecting universities in country S, which includes industrial science and technology universities and famous industrial research institutions in countries G and F.

The morning session was very lively. At noon, Erdmann invited all members of the delegation to dine at the most famous Chinese restaurant in the old town, "Fengze Garden". According to him, this is the best Chinese restaurant in Haosen canton.

"Fortress Garden" was founded by a young man from Hong Kong. The door face is not big, but the whole building has carved railings and cornices, as well as a signboard with gold on a black background, which is quite Chinese. Traditional Cantonese tunes are played in the restaurant. The tables are all large round tables in the Chinese style, but they are divided into meals in Europe.

"It's understandable, it's understandable, follow the customs. Mr. Li of Ruili Electronics said to Lin Dongyun beside him. Everyone is hungry and looking forward to the best Chinese food in Haosen.

It can be seen that this restaurant is mainly aimed at European customers. The dishes in the menu are still arranged in the order of appetizer, main course, and dessert, except that all dishes (except coffee) are Chinese specialties, with Sichuan cuisine being the majority, such as black pepper beef tenderloin, palace fried chicken, etc., but there are also sweet and sour tenderloin, roast duck and other provincial and municipal specialties. The desserts served are also Chinese dim sum such as water chestnut cake and custard buns.

All the entrepreneurs were in high spirits and claimed to experience "Chinese and Western food". But after the appetizer and main course were served one after another, everyone's expressions were a little indescribable.

Yin Jie's main course is roast duck, and a reddish-brown slightly shriveled duck leg rests next to a serving of white rice on a plate, topped with a sweet and sour sauce. She couldn't help but feel a little remorseful after looking around at the reactions of the other members of the delegation, she focused on the arrangement of corporate visits in her work last week, and in her opinion, there should be no problems with Lin Xia and Marco for meals, so she didn't study it in detail. Outcome.......

She got up and found the restaurant owner, tasted the "special chili sauce" without crowds, and found that it was actually sweet! Frustrated, she saw the famous "old godmother" on the sauce configuration table. She was immediately relieved and asked the boss to provide a bottle of "Lao Gan Ma" to each table of the delegation.

When the familiar bottle was placed on the table, it attracted a burst of cheers and the atmosphere was lively.

After lunch, everyone drove to the Rhine Industrial Park. Through Uri's presentation in the morning session, everyone already has a rough understanding of this industrial park. Now, under the guidance of Uri, everyone visited the innovation incubation center and quietly audited the "quarterly project roadshow", and everyone was amazed by the innovative achievements of several young entrepreneurs. Afterwards, they visited the public laboratories of the industrial park. There are a total of 10 laboratories in three fields, including medicine, chemical industry and machinery. Looking at the expensive equipment in the laboratory, an entrepreneur couldn't help but admire: "Every one here is a big investment, not a large enterprise really can't afford to buy, and the maintenance cost is also high."

Uri explains: Thanks to the state's financial allocation and the state's sponsorship of large corporations, public laboratories have been set up and the instruments have been purchased in the industrial park, and all businesses that have settled in the park can apply for them in advance for a small rental fee. The main objective of the project is also to promote scientific and technological innovation in small and medium-sized enterprises.

The park has also cooperated with well-known service enterprises to set up institutions that provide commercial, intellectual property, legal, financial and other services for enterprises in the park. For example, Deloitte & Touche Tohmatsu provides tax services, while the well-known Fischer Law Firm provides legal services.

The manufacturer of the folding thermos cup that Yin Jie gave to everyone as a group gift is Kruppe Technology in the Rheinland Industrial Park. A group of people visited the company. After the company's president Adam gave a detailed introduction to the company, several business representatives showed great interest. Mr. Shi of Minmetals asked about Kruppe's future development plan and consideration of foreign investment. Rayleigh Electronics asked the other party very directly whether it had any intention to expand its business in China, and bluntly said that its company was very happy to provide agency services for it. Zhejiang Jingfeng Technology mainly produces all kinds of professional bicycles, and Xie Jingfeng, general manager, proposed to build a joint venture with Kruppe in China to produce folding thermos flasks for bicycles. ...

Adam didn't seem to react to such an enthusiastic proposal, and he smiled a little embarrassed: "Thank you, I need to discuss with the directors, maybe we can find another time to continue the discussion." ”

Everyone burst into laughter.

Time flies in the midst of heated discussions. By the time I left, the sunset had already covered the sky.
