Chapter 559: Butterfly's Wings
As Karen Carpenter's last song ended, the scene burst into warm applause, and the eyes of the film and television giants from Hollywood at the scene flashed even more: I didn't expect that Karen Carpenter not only fully recovered, but also could have such a wild way.
So far, the Carpenter siblings are the only band that has been able to sing twice in the White House, and this alone is enough to establish the status of the "carpenter brothers and sisters" in the American music scene - don't think that the United States does not have "political influence", this thing is not only in China, but also in Europe and the United States.
"Thank you, thank you very much Mr. Richard and Miss Cullen for such a wonderful performance, thank you again, thank you," the commander in the suit and leather shoes came to the stage with a red face and light steps, first nodded to everyone, and then continued: "Thank you very much friends and guests for coming to tonight's Christmas dinner, thank you for ......"
Speech, that's what happened, fortunately, Chen Geng did his homework, knowing that at the White House Christmas dinner over the years, the president's speech time is usually controlled within ten minutes, looking at the general who talks eloquently on the stage, he is not in a hurry: at most ten minutes, patience will pass.
It was also at this time that he heard someone whispering hello to him, and turned his head slightly, well, it was an old guy in his fifties who greeted him.
Chen Geng said politely: "May I ask who you are?"
"I'm Josie Daniels from Bellesheng," the old man said to Chen Geng very politely, "Mr. Fernandez, it's a great honor to meet you. β
Chen Geng immediately suddenly: it turned out to be the CEO of Bellesheng, he stretched out his hand and shook hands with Josie Daniels, and said politely: "Mr. Daniels, fortunately." β
Like Garrett 2000's partner, Flextronics, it is also an electronics foundry company, which was founded in 1979 and is still famous, but it is also a niche in this field, and if I remember correctly, they will probably be listed in New York in 1986.
As for why ThinkCenter is eyeing itself, it is actually very simple: ThinkCenter has sold more than 800,000 units since it was launched, and with ThinkCenter's global hot sales, no one can say how many units this personal computer can sell.
Josie Daniels didn't expect Chen Geng to be so good at talking, and he was a little flattered for a while.
After a few pleasantries, Josie Daniels couldn't help but take the lead in asking, "Mr. Fernandez, can I ask you something?"
"You say. β
"What is the quality of the black and white picture tube for display made in Huaxia?"
Chen Geng really didn't expect Josie Daniels to ask himself this question, he thought that Josie Daniels came over to see if he could get some of the thinkcenter OEM orders from his hands.
Slightly stunned, Chen Geng did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically: "Are you interested in the display picture tube made in Huaxia?"
Josie Daniels didn't answer directly, but said with a smile: "Isn't a considerable part of the picture tube on the monitor of your thinkcenter from Huaxia?"
It seems that Bellesheng has done a lot of homework.
Chen Geng's eyes narrowed, then stretched, nodded and said, "That's right," after a pause, he continued: "The picture tube we purchased from Huaxia is the technology and patent of Dongying NEC and RCA bought by Huaxia's enterprises, as for the results, I believe you have also seen it, not bad, the results of our inspectors' sampling, the quality of the picture tube from Huaxia is no worse than that of NEC, RCA, Sony and Panasonic." β
"That's ......" Josie Daniels hesitated slightly, lowered his voice and asked Chen Geng: "Then do you think that if we go to Huaxia to invest and build a factory, can this business be done?"
I'll go for it, this bend is a bit urgent.
Chen Geng, who had been waiting for Josie Daniels to speak on his own, did not wait for Josie Daniels to plead with him for an order from thinkcenter, but heard the news that Beilaisheng was going to Huaxia to invest and build a factory...... If I'm not mistaken, it wasn't until at least the 90s that Bellerson Electronics would build their first factory in Huaxia, right?
What is this?
Because of his appearance, the butterfly's wings fluttered?
However, Chen Geng is happy to see this happen, and if these American companies are willing to invest in China, it will certainly be a good thing for this ancient and troubled nation.
He thought for a while and said seriously: "Whether this business can be done depends on your development strategy, but I have been to Huaxia a few times, and I also have some investment in Huaxia, if Beilaisheng is interested in investing in Huaxia, I can introduce you to some of the situation in Huaxia that I have learned." β
Josie Daniels nodded excitedly: "Okay, okay, how much do you know about Huaxia, please be sure to tell me." β
He has also learned about China's reform and opening up policies through some channels, but Josie Daniels obviously believes more in the words of FernΓ‘ndez Chen, who has invested in China and has been to China many times, than those that are hearsay and have serious doubts about the authenticity.
Chen Gengdao: "Some of our media always promote that Huaxia is very backward, which I do not deny, Huaxia is indeed very backward, but it is not as these media say, Huaxia is not a technological desert...... If you think about it this way, a country that can independently launch carrier rockets and launch satellites into space, a country that can produce and manufacture long-range and intercontinental ballistic missiles on its own, a country that can manufacture atomic bombs and hydrogen bombs, fighter planes, large bombers, transport planes, warships, submarines, radars, and other military equipment, and a country that can independently produce and manufacture automobiles, how backward can it be? At least, it is equivalent to the level of the United States in the late 40s and early 50s, right?
In fact, in terms of the overall level of science and technology, the scientific and technological level of China in this era may not be as powerful and balanced as the United States just after the end of World War II, but these examples that cannot stand Chen Geng's example are convincing, whether it is a carrier rocket, a satellite or an intercontinental ballistic missile, a fighter, a transport plane or a car, this is the basic indicator to measure a country's industrial level.
Josie Daniels really didn't think about these problems before, but now after listening to Chen Geng's words and thinking about it carefully, Josie Daniels also feels that he has really made a mistake in the past, just like Fernandez said, a country that can produce these things independently, how backward can it be?
He nodded subconsciously: "What you said makes sense." β
"Of course, although Huaxia can produce a lot of things, in terms of the overall technical level, their technology is still very backward, which can be seen from the fact that they need to introduce the technology and patents of picture tubes from the United States and Dongying. β
"It seems...... That's how it goes. Josie Daniels thought for a moment and nodded again.
"Huaxia's labor cost is very low, which is equivalent to our American state, their labor cost is almost negligible...... You must not have imagined what the monthly salary of my Huaxia employee at the Huaxia scrap car dismantling factory is," After speaking, without waiting for Josie Daniels to speak, Chen Geng stretched out his slap and split his five fingers: "Less than 50 dollars." β
"Oh God!"
Josie Daniels' eyes widened!
He knew that the salaries of Chinese workers were very low, but he didn't expect them to be so low: the monthly salary was less than $50, which was almost one-twentieth of that of American workers?!
Josie Daniels felt that she was going crazy: how could it not be profitable to invest in a factory in such a place?
"I know what you're worried about, it's nothing more than whether our factory will be confiscated and requisitioned by the Huaxia government after it is built, or after it has been operated for a period of time, right?"
"Yes. Josie Daniels nodded and happily admitted: "In addition, I am also concerned about whether their government officials are corrupt and whether the cost of public relations is high." β
"Hahahaha......"
Hearing this, Chen Geng couldn't help laughing.

PS: Brothers, please wait a few minutes.
