Chapter 730: Unprofessional Salesman

Compared with the previous forced blocking of the passage of the purchase agreement, in the face of the situation that has been completed, many foreign consuls in Melina seem to have changed their attitudes. In particular, I saw the construction team placing orders all over the world to purchase materials.

As many people say, don't look at these so-called developed countries, they feel superior all day long. As a matter of fact, the unoptimistic international economic situation has made the lives of these so-called developed countries worse day by day.

To gain popular support, the government needs to find ways to boost the economy and create more jobs. In the face of the construction team of Rio Island, hundreds of millions or even less than one billion construction funds have been invested one after another, who doesn't want to get a share of it?

To the surprise of many people, the largest share of the construction funds on Liu Island is naturally the low-cost and high-quality Chinese enterprises. Secondly, at the time of the signing of the agreement, Zhuang Haiyang had recognized Merina's local enterprises.

Moving back in the row, the Gallic state received the most eye-catching orders. Even to the speechlessness of many consuls, this Antoff even proposed that he hope that the island guards of Zhuang Haiyang would purchase weapons and equipment made in Gaul.

If this is really done, I am afraid that many people will wonder if Zhuang Haiyang is a puppet supported by the Gallic State, and is ready to regain more Merina interests through this way of buying the island. Fortunately, in the end, Zhuang Haiyang vetoed the proposal.

Some of the standard equipment it procured for the escort units were weapons exported by foreign armies, and the largest number of them were exported from China. However, the equipment procured by the Island Guard is light weapons.

Similar to the top-level equipment that the Merina government army does not have, Zhuang Haiyang did not buy it in order to avoid suspicion. This approach is undoubtedly satisfactory to the authorities in Melona. And the military, naturally, is more at ease and will not be afraid.

This time, Antoff came to the island of Rio in person, and many consuls in Merina seemed to know what he was looking for Zhuang Haiyang to do. The takeover proposal that is currently being discussed in the Merina House must have been instigated by Antoff behind his back.

As a result, it is clear that those opposition officials naturally strongly oppose the shareholding agreement. The problem is that to the dismay of opposition officials, the airline's top management and employees are very supportive of Zhuang Haiyang becoming the majority shareholder.

With the construction of the island of Ríou not for a short time, it is no secret in Merina how much salary those who participate in the construction of the project on the island receive every month. With such a big boss injecting capital, the income of employees will inevitably increase.

For those captains, they also want to fly more advanced and safer airliners. Don't they have to worry about whether they can make it to their destination every time they take off? Whether it is safe to land at the airport where it is parked.

Lead Antoff into his Lakeview Villa and stand on the Villa's observation deck? Looking at the beautiful lake that greeted his eyes, Antoff also said enviously: "Zhuang, your mountain villa is really beautiful!"

"Thank you for the compliment? When I chose to build a villa here, I thought it had the best view. ”

Inviting Antoff to take a seat? Zhuang Haiyang smiled again and said, "Sit down and enjoy it slowly! Coffee or red wine?"

"Wine or do you want to save it for lunch? Don't mind? Give me a cup of coffee!"

"OK! My coffee won't disappoint you. ”

Got some gossip? Antoff also said directly: "Zhuang? For a stake in an airline? Have you made a decision?"

"Antoff, is that straightforward? What is the opinion of the airlines or the government?"

"Their opinion doesn't matter! I want to know now, do you really want to take a stake? Or a holding?"

In the face of Antoff's outspokenness, Zhuang Haiyang, who also brewed a cup of coffee? He took a sip of coffee before saying, "If I want to buy shares, then I must take a controlling stake." If you know anything about me? You should know that I don't like people sharing power.

In fact, I don't mind re-registering an airline if the government rejects my investment. Even if it's a little smaller, I don't think it's a big problem. If I invest, they won't refuse, right?"

"Oh buy ga, have you thought about how many staff you need to recruit to invest in an airline?"

"Antoff, as long as I offer enough salary, I believe many people will be willing to join my airline. In fact, with the island of Riou about to open to tourists from all over the world, I need enough planes to bring them all to Merina.

In addition, the top beef cattle from the Merina Ranch, as well as my plantations and orchards, can be delivered by air to my partners, who should be happy to see the results. ”

"Okay! I have to say, your courage is beyond my imagination! Forgive me for being unreasonable, if you set up an airline, how many passenger planes will you procure? Under the same conditions, you should purchase passenger planes made in China, right?"

"Antoff, that's why you're here today, right? I have to say, you're not a good salesman, but you're a friend worth making. I'm really glad that you can say the same thing. ”

In the face of Zhuang Haiyang's ridicule, Antoff also shrugged his shoulders and said, "You should know that my job is not a salesman, right?"

"Your answer leaves me speechless! Okay! I can give you an acknowledgment that under the same conditions, priority will be given to the procurement of passenger planes from your country. Even as a friend, I can reveal the news that there will be at least ten airliners in the first batch!"

Hearing about the number of passenger planes ordered in the first batch, it can reach ten, which means hundreds of millions of dollars or euros in orders. Not surprisingly, Sam's State, which competes with Gaul and is the most competitive in the aviation industry, may also launch a public relations campaign.

Upon hearing the news, Antoff also said sincerely: "Zhuang, thank you! With your answer, it seems that I can make a difference." As for which company you choose, from my standpoint, I naturally hope that you will order our aircraft.

It's just that I know that when it comes to such a procurement case, you definitely need to consider the interests of all parties. Therefore, I will also maintain a relatively neutral attitude in this matter. If they can't compete, then you can't blame me, right?"

"Of course! After all, you're not a professional salesman, are you?"

Listening to what Zhuang Haiyang said, both of them burst out laughing. In the follow-up chat, Zhuang Haiyang also informed the resort that there were some things that needed to be purchased, including yachts and other supporting facilities.

Although Zhuang Haiyang has emphasized that the corresponding procurement will be conducted by public bidding. But Antoff also knows that as long as those domestic enterprises do not slaughter Zhuang Haiyang as a fat sheep, it is still no problem to win some orders.

All in all, after a brief meeting, Zhuang Haiyang also personally took Antoff to visit the island of Rio. Among them, the first batch of high-quality beef cattle that have already been successfully bred. Seeing these beef cattle, Antoff also knew that the meat quality must not be too bad.

When he visited the plantation, he personally picked some fresh fruits and vegetables from the shed, and after tasting them, Antoff also sighed with emotion: "This taste is really amazing!

"If you like, I'll give you a few boxes when I leave. In fact, there are not many ripe fruits and vegetables on the plantation. When the large area matures, we will also undertake local orders from Melina, and don't forget to take care of my business when the time comes!"

"Zhuang, it seems that you are really a successful businessman, take this opportunity to sell me your products?"

"Don't you think that more people should taste such delicious ingredients? And I believe that as long as these high-quality ingredients can enter your embassy restaurant, those staff will definitely love you to death." ”

"Well, it seems that you are better suited to be a salesman than me!"

If there is no accident, the ingredients produced on the island of Rio may not have the opportunity to taste the ordinary people of Merina at all. The real local customers should be these relatively wealthy embassies, as well as the local tycoons in Melona.

As for the royal family, Zhuang Haiyang didn't think about receiving their money. Anyway, there are not many members of the royal family, and it doesn't hurt to give away a batch every month. But this kind of gift is also conducive to deepening the relationship between the island of Riou and the royal family.

Every few years, the government elects a new president. But the king's words will be passed down forever. Whoever is president is the president, unless he really wants to completely mess up the situation. Otherwise, the existence of the royal family needs to be taken into account.

Visiting the commercial street of the resort, which is being renovated, Antoff also said directly: "If you need it, I can contact some friends of luxury brands in China, and I believe they will be happy to open branches here." ”

"Yes, when inviting investment, I may arrange a relatively good position for them, which can be regarded as a return gift, how about it?"

"Deal!"

From Antoff's point of view, he felt that as long as the situation in Merina did not become turbulent, the beauty of the island of Riou would be revealed, and he believed that it would attract a large number of tourists. Many people will come to the famous heirloom ingredients in Europe alone.

Visiting the production area of the heirloom ingredients and tasting the most authentic heirloom ingredients in person, I believe that many tourists who love food cannot resist this temptation. Plus the island scenery is so beautiful, are you worried that there will be no guests coming?

As an appointed ambassador to a country, even in an inconspicuous small country like Merina, Antoff naturally has a family and power at home. In his opinion, through the relationship with Zhuang Haiyang, the family should increase their investment in Rio Island.

And he believes that when the island of Rio becomes famous all over the world, these investment returns should benefit the family a lot. The more people the family has benefited, the more support they will have to give him. It will also help to elevate his standing in the political arena.

By the time he left in the afternoon, Antoff's trip was a full one. What pleased Antoff the most was Zhuang Haiyang's personal gift. In addition to the supreme red wine tasted at the luncheon, there was also a heirloom fruit wine for his wife.

In short, it seems like a small gift, but it is like a treasure for Antoff. In his opinion, this should be the most meaningful gift he has received since his appointment to Merina. Even the secretaries and bodyguards who traveled with them were given a bottle of premium heirloom wine.

Such a generous amount of money made Antoff's secretary and bodyguards feel that they really have meat to eat with their own boss!
