"Are you the new manager of the business department of the meat factory?" Xiao Wang, the secretary, looked at the middle-aged man named "Song Haiming" with amusement, and flicked the business card handed to him by the other party with his hand contemptuously.

"Yes, yes, I'm the manager of the business department, and I'm not familiar with this position, and I don't know anything for the first time. "Song Haiming said it very sincerely.

Secretary Xiao Wang felt even more funny, "Your meat factory is also really, why did you promote you to the position of business manager? It is not difficult to do this position, I see that you are a new hand." ”

Song Haiming: "......" hurriedly said, "If there is any shortcoming, please forgive me." ”

"Hehe, first of all, let me tell you, since you are running a business, just get a few more boxes of good cigarettes--- what does it mean to let me smoke this scattered flower? I don't care, teach you a can, the next time you see someone, you must at least let 'hibiscus', 'China' such a big brand of cigarettes, no matter how bad it is, you have to get a box of 'Heroes'--- this is called a local characteristic, understand?"

"Taught! I've been taught! It's the first time I've done anything like this, and I don't know anything. Song Hai was obviously sincere.

"Also, look at the clothes you wear, since you wear a tie, you have to wear a suit--- right, and your bicycle, are you really short of money in the factory, and you will be equipped with a second-hand motorcycle, so it looks a little more magnificent. "Secretary Xiao Wang is usually called by Zhao Tiezhu, and it is rare to point fingers at people and teach people to do things like this, and a sense of vanity and satisfaction wells up in his heart.

Song Haiming nodded and said: "You're right--- but when I was promoted, Director Chen didn't say that, they just said that in the future, as long as I come forward, show my face, and eat and drink with others, it's okay." ”

"Cut, who do you think you are? You can still eat and drink, and the president of the United States does not have such a beautiful difference!" said the secretary Xiao Wang disdainfully.

Song Haiming lowered his head in shame and said, "Yes, yes, I think so too, so this time I took the initiative to invite Ying to come to Director Zhao to talk about business--- we can't just eat and not work!"

Song Haiming felt a little uncomfortable when he thought that he had been idle these days, didn't do anything, and received a high salary.

"Okay, I won't talk to you anymore--- so let's do it, our factory director is receiving VIPs, or from Russia, what about you, just go to the leisure hall inside and wait, and when our factory director is done, I will greet you to see him." ”

"So may I ask --- you?"

"Oh, I'm Director Zhao's secretary. Xiao Wang said with a whimsical attitude.

Sure enough, as soon as he heard that it was Director Zhao's secretary, Song Haiming immediately shook Xiao Wang's hand excitedly: "That's really good! Please, I must convey it to Oh--- I'll be waiting inside." After that, he obediently went to stay in the hotel.

Secretary Xiao Wang: "......" Seeing that Song Haiming didn't stuff anything, he went in, shook his head and said: "This fool, it's no good, who is willing to help you!

International Hotel, Private Dining Room ---

Mr. Popov, Chekov's secretary, who had come all the way from Russia, accompanied by Zhao Tiezhu, director of the No. 1 Food Processing Factory in Nandu, was inspecting the tobacco, alcohol, and dishes used at tonight's banquet.

Popov picked up a box of the locals' favorite smoker, the Heroes, and asked, "What kind of cigarette is this?"

The first translator was translated to Zhao Tiezhu.

Zhao Tiezhu hurriedly said, "This is a local specialty cigarette, the name is 'Qunyinghui', and the story on the cigarette box is the story in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". ”

Popov shook his head and said, "Our dear President Chekov doesn't like to smoke this so-called 'local cigarette', he likes to smoke cigars the most--- you know, the kind of coarse, strong-looking cigars. ”

The translator hurriedly translated this passage to Zhao Tiezhu.

Zhao Tiezhu immediately made a decision and explained to the people around him, "Hurry up and get a few boxes of cigars for Lao Tzu to come back." ”

The man asked, "What brand do you want?"

"It can be of any brand--- as long as it's a cigar!"

The man scratched his head, and he didn't know where to get these cigarettes--- Nandu sold foreign cigarettes, especially cigars, which were too rare.

At this time, the big-nosed Popov stared at the wine on the table again, picked it up, looked at it, and asked the interpreter next to him: "What is this?"

The translator hurriedly said: "This is their local specialty liquor, called 'Wolong Jade Liquid'." ”

Popov shook his head: "No, no, no, it's a damn local specialty! Our dear President Chekov doesn't like this unknown liquor, he likes to drink vodka, and he also likes your famous high-end liquor in China...... What's it called?"

Zhong Fen hurriedly said: "Moutai, Wuliangye." ”

Then he turned his head to Zhao Tiezhu and said: "I don't need to translate this passage, you are very rubbish with local characteristics!

As soon as Zhao Tiezhu heard this, he instructed the female subordinate next to him, "Go, go and buy a few boxes of Moutai and Wuliangye--- money is not a problem, and I will go back to the factory for reimbursement later!"

It is now 1994, although the reform and opening up has been many years, but Nandu is a fourth-tier city, many times like Moutai Wuliangye are also quota sales, even four-star hotels like the International Hotel are not necessarily available--- it can be said that it is not possible to buy it with money.

This can be regarded as embarrassing for the female subordinate, and after listening to the order, she grabbed her scalp and thought of where to get wine.

After checking the cigarettes and alcohol in the private room, the Popov began to walk around the room again, and finally pointed to the television and said: "These programs are incomprehensible, you should put on some Soviet songs, such as "Katyusha", "Three Sets of Cars" and so on." ”

Zhongfen was busy translating to Zhao Tiezhu.

Zhao Tiezhu breathed a sigh of relief, and his heart fell to the ground: "This is easy to do--- who is who, you go and make some older Soviet videos, which are the kind of Soviet songs--- if you remember well, we have them in the factory, and there are still people singing them at the New Year's Day party last year!"

Seeing that this errand was easy to do, the people around him hurriedly shouted and went to find the videotape.

At this time, Popov nodded, saying that he was generally satisfied with the situation in the private room, and then he would go to the bathroom to have a look.

When the translator translated these words to Zhao Tiezhu, Zhao Tiezhu couldn't help but be stunned: "What is he doing in the thatched house?

But by this time Popov had already taken someone to see the bathroom.

Zhao Tiezhu hurriedly beckoned everyone and followed.

The leaders of those food factories were talking about it one by one.

"What's there to see about this toilet?"

"These foreigners have a very unique hobby. ”

"It's nitpicking, you want to give us a dismount!"

"In such a big hotel, the toilet must be fine!"

"Let's go, let's see what the hell they do!"

A group of people shouted, following the Russian ghost Popov, towards the bathroom outside the private room.
