In addition to the brochures, they also heard from there that they had to prepare business cards for the company, and the contract could not be handwritten, and it had to be printed on a typewriter, so they went to find a place to print it late that night, but fortunately, because it was the Canton Fair period, and the printing shops were still open late at night.

When Zhang Xingxing wrote the contract, he also drafted two templates, one for the Wood Factory, and the other for his own wood carving factory.

Everything is ready.

It was the day of the opening meeting.

"Happy, happy, you see that they are all foreigners, the big golden hair, the beard, the man's skin is too white, whiter than our girls' skin. ”

"Lao Zhu, you are still the head of a factory at such an age, aren't you just a foreigner, what are you talking about, you are a person who has been featured in the newspapers in the provincial capital. ”

"Isn't this the first time I've met a foreigner?"

Speaking of which, Zhang Xingxing is also the first time he has seen a living foreigner in his previous life and this life, and he has seen it on TV in his later life.

He also looked at the foreigners.

Before the opening, Chinese and foreign guests gathered in the square.

Today, these overseas merchants are in a good mood, and many people here are also old Canton friends, but in the spring of 1980, these merchants who came to participate in the Canton Fair obviously found that the hotel where they lived, the night was no longer silent.

For example, the music in the restaurant is melodious, singing and dancing, because there is a music café in Guangzhou, and the merchants do not have to stay alone in the guest room at night as before.

They have to enjoy theatrical performances while eating, and after the meal is full, they can also dance, so they participated in this Canton Fair their mood suddenly changed, not only feasting their eyes and ears, but also eating can be feasted, there are also cola, coffee.

This was impossible before, and they couldn't be in a good mood.

The big red slogan on the square warmly welcomes guests from all over the world to participate in the 47th trade fair, and the following is the English sentence A world with...... fail。

The opening ceremony began with a "Welcome Song" singing.

The flower city is full of flowers, and friends are coming.

Flowers accompanied by wine, gather together to express feelings.

New friends and old friends treat each other sincerely, and Xinyi Spring is always there.

......

During the opening ceremony.

Zhang Xingxing and others wore exhibitor badges to enter the exhibition in advance to prepare.

After the grand opening ceremony.

Firecrackers are lit.

Hundreds of firecrackers were placed in unison.

Countless foreign guests poured into the convention and exhibition center.

"Happy, happy, those foreigners came in. ”

"Lao Zhu, don't shout, they are here, isn't it just that the high nose bridge and blue eyes are different from us, people are here, this is our territory, we must be generous and decent, neither humble nor arrogant, to reflect our ancient culture and virtues, look at how old you are, what are you shaking, what are we afraid of, we participate in the Canton Fair, it is to look for business opportunities, to obtain export orders, and they are here to buy drops!"

Director Zhu slowly calmed down, how do he feel that he is dozens of years old and not as happy as this baby, how does he feel like an elder who has seen the world, but he is like a hairy boy who has never seen the world.

"Now you go to make tea, and in a while we will have to look at all directions and listen to all directions. ”

Zhang Xingxing commanded Lao Zhu again.

Director Zhu vomited blood.

Didn't you ask him to cooperate in translation, but it looked like the little brother he called to pour tea.

"How do you drink tea here?"

"It's a small place, but let's stand and drink some tea. ”

There is no negotiation room for township enterprises like them in the exhibition hall, which belongs to large enterprises and large collective enterprises, but there is a serious booth, which is much better than other private enterprises that cannot get formal booths.

They are in the corner, it is really like setting up a stall, and they can only put a few square meters or two.

And they are the kind of booth intermittent passage corridor to talk about business, it is really a "guerrilla" solicitation in the passage corridor, but they are still very happy, and being able to come in is an opportunity.

If it weren't for the Canton Fair, many private enterprises in the previous life might have been raised in the mountains and unknown to the people, not to mention the scale of the future.

For example, Lu Guanqiu's Vientiane, such as Zhongji Group, such as Fangtai Group, such as Sanhuan Group...... There are countless of them, all of whom started from the Canton Fair as a corridor to attract tourists and engage in guerrilla foreign trade.

Many wealthy places also started from foreign trade, such as Xiyang County in the previous life, which continuously won huge orders for Buddhist shrines and wood carving products from the Canton Fair.

......

Zhang is happy to have a formal booth now, although it is small, at least there are chairs to do, there are stalls, and now he is really stained with the light of the Pengbu Town Repair Society Wood Factory.

Otherwise, it is also a guerrilla fight in the aisle.

Lao Zhu does not speak English.

He constantly invites others to visit the camphor wood box.

“Hello!”

Foreigners greeted him warmly, but he didn't understand English, he just kept bowing, constantly making a gesture to please, and some foreigners saw that the communication was not smooth, and they were not interested in understanding.

"Happy brother, happy brother, come out quickly to solicit merchants!"

"Those people are just passing by, it's useless to solicit, if you really want to do this business, you will definitely take a serious look at our goods, they just pointed at it just to see the strangeness. ”

"How do you know?"

"I understand what they were muttering. ”

"Oh, I see. ”

In essence, Zhang Xingxing is not so interested in those high noses, blue eyes, and blonde hair, and the foreign trade business of carved camphor wooden boxes is actually a business for Southeast Asia, island countries and overseas Chinese, they like Chinese camphor wooden boxes, and his Buddhist shrine customers are not those Westerners, but island people!

Black eyes and black hair like yourself.

They have their roots in China, and like the Chinese people, they believe in Buddhism, and those Westerners with high noses and blond hair all believe in God.

Didn't his shrine sell it to them to a monk comb?

Although there were also wooden combs in the temples in later generations, they were given to pilgrims, so could Westerners still give them to the Buddha shrines of the islanders?

Therefore, Zhang Xingxing did not raise his eyes for those Western foreigners who came to him, but some Southeast Asian people of color could occasionally give him some interest.

"Hi, I'm Mitsui Yaei, may I ask you for the carved camphor box and the Buddhist shrine ......"

An island man stepped forward in broken Chinese and asked.

"Stop, stop, you're from the island. Director Zhu stopped the other party.

"Yes, I'm from Kyoto, Your Excellency. ”

"What the hell, we won't sell it to you, can you go somewhere else?"

"Nani, why don't you sell it to me. ”

"I'm not going to do business with the islanders. ”

Director Zhu was directly a businessman from an island country who refused to come forward to ask.

Zhang was happy to see Lao Zhu bang the other party.

scolded Lao Zhu in his heart, the money of the island people is not made in vain, how can they be blown away, they are waiting for them, he wants to move all the money in their pockets to the land of China, he blew him away, how can he dig out their pockets.
