"What, the Chinese want to hold a press conference?"

Hiraoka Tsukio, who was proudly waiting for Feng Xiaochen to bow his head to him, heard the news, and jumped up from the sofa in a flash, his face was full of stunned expressions, where was there still the calm style of Sven on weekdays.

"This is not possible, our company has already contacted several Chinese government departments, and they have promised us that they will persuade Feng Xiaochen to resume negotiations with us. Hiraoka Shuo said to Yu Uchida, who came to report the news.

Uchida Yu smiled faintly and said: "Various media in Mexico City have been informed that the Chinese will hold a press conference tomorrow in the large conference hall of the Cape Hotel to release the results of the Chinese investigation on the collapse of the fractionation tower at the Perot construction site." They also sent an invitation to Iketani Productions in the hope that we would be able to publish the results with them. ”

With that, he handed a copy of the printed material to Hiraoka. Hiraoka took a look at the content of the press conference submitted by the Chinese side to Iketani Manufacturing, which read: The Chinese side has conducted a serious investigation into the collapse of the fractionation tower at the Perrault Chemical Plant site. Through the analysis of the welding flame by the workers on site, the problem may be in the composition of the steel, which has nothing to do with the operation of the Chinese workers. The material also cites the analysis of Ms. Du Xiaodi, an international welding technology expert, that if there is a difference between the composition of chromium and molybdenum in the steel and the nominal composition, it will lead to what kind of changes in the weld layer, and what kind of results will occur. These technical explanations are not something that Kio Hiraoka can understand, but he is convinced that after the reporters get this material, they will definitely find someone who knows how to interpret it, and then the matter can be imagined.

"The Chinese are crazy!" shouted Hiraoka Shuo, "don't they know that there is no room for recovery in this way! At that time, all the steel produced by our Sendo Steel will be questioned by the whole world, and our losses will exceed 100 billion yen, and it may even lead to bankruptcy!"

Did you know that?

Uchida Yu scolded in his heart, and then said: "However, this is just the loss of your company, what damage is there for the Chinese, or for Feng Xiaochen?"

He ...... He's going to lose the trust of his boss!" Hiraoka thought for a long time before he came up with such a reason.

"Haha, maybe. What if he doesn't care, is Hiraoka going to make a bet with him?" asked Uchida in a mocking tone.

Hiraoka Shuo wilted, is this something that can be gambled? Not to mention that the price Feng Xiaochen paid was only to lose the trust of his superiors, even if Feng Xiaochen was dismembered, would it be worth the loss of Xianto Steel? Uchida Yu is right, this calamity is a life and death calamity for Xianhu, but for Feng Xiaochen it is a worry-free calamity, and any chess player should know how to play this kind of chess.

"No, I have to meet Feng Xiaochen!" said Hiraoka Shuo.

Before this, he had been waiting for Feng Xiaochen to take the initiative to come to him, and he had imagined countless times how Feng Xiaochen would have a depressed and panicked expression. But now, he doesn't dare to dream this dream anymore, because he can't afford to lose this "what if".

Feng Xiaochen's residence and contact information in Mexico City had already been reported to Hiraoka Shuo. Hiraoka Shuo picked up the phone in the room and dialed Feng Xiaochen's number. It was Feng Xiaochen who answered the phone on the other end, and when he heard Hiraoka Tree Boy report to his home, Feng Xiaochen responded a few times with a hum, and then he was silent, waiting for Hiraoka Tree Boy to speak.

"Mr. Feng, our side has always wanted to maintain Sino-Japanese friendship, and we have expressed this to many government departments in your country, and I think they should have conveyed this meaning to you, right?" Hiraoka Shuo said euphemistically, the subtext of which is that we have settled your boss, don't you still restrain yourself?

"Yes, yes, my leadership stated this to me before I left China. Feng Xiaochen responded.

"Before you leave China?" Hiraoka Shuo heard what Feng Xiaochen meant, and he asked in surprise: "Why, didn't you receive a call from China today?"

"Today? Feng Xiaochen replied innocently, and after that, he seemed to remember something, and added: "Maybe it's because I haven't stayed in the hotel today, because I'm going back to China tomorrow, so I'm going to go shopping with my wife today and buy some Mexican specialties." ”

"You're saying you didn't get a call from your country?"

"No, not one. ”

"How is this possible?" Hiraoka Shuo was anxious, and he said: "Mr. Feng, let me tell you, you will definitely be contacted in China, and you must notify all reporters now to cancel tomorrow's press conference, otherwise it will be too late." ”

"Is it necessary?" Feng Xiaochen sneered and said, "Mr. Hiraoka, it is impossible to cancel the press conference, what I can do is at best to change the content released at the press conference, and this depends on your company's attitude." There are still 18 hours left from now, Mr. Hiraoka, please don't make a mistake about yourself. ”

With that, Feng Xiaochen hung up the phone, leaving only a string of harsh busy tones for Hiraoka Shuo.

"He didn't get a call...... It turns out that something has gone wrong here, no, I have to contact the headquarters immediately and ask them to ......" Hiraoka Shuo muttered to himself, holding the telephone receiver, hesitating to contact the headquarters of the Sendo Steel Works.

"Hiraoka-kun, don't dream anymore!" Uchida Yu really couldn't bear it anymore, he shouted at Hiraoka Shuo, and then said: "Why didn't you receive a call from China, this Feng Xiaochen is clearly denying it, he is planning to make it a fait accompli." I don't know if this man is really brainless, or if he has strong determination and courage, but I believe that if we don't give him a satisfactory answer, he will definitely hold this press conference, and we will definitely push both of our companies into the abyss. Believe me, Hiraoka-kun, we can't gamble with a madman on the fate of the company!"

"Crazy!

Hiraoka felt a chill. He began to understand that the Chinese on the other end of the phone was different from many Chinese he had come into contact with before, that person had no sense of reverence for the word "Japan", and it was useless for him to use his Japanese identity to scare the other party.

Since you can't be scared, then simply surrender. Isn't Japanese culture chrysanthemums and knives, and if you can't scare people with knives, you can only offer chrysanthemums, and Hiraoka Shuo doesn't find it difficult.

That night, Feng Xiaochen ushered in the humble Hiraoka Shuo and Uchida Yu and his party in the hotel where he stayed, he let the two into the living room of the suite, and when he beckoned the guests to sit down, he seemed to inadvertently point to the pile of materials piled up next to him and said: "I'm really sorry, I was busy preparing the materials for tomorrow's press conference just now, and the living room was very messy, don't be surprised." ”

Information......

Hiraoka Shuo and Uchida Yuu glanced at the information, and their hearts were as bitter as if they had eaten coptis. Although so far, they are not sure whether Feng Xiaochen has made up his mind to smash the pot, but the information in front of them still gives them a great sense of crisis. Once this information is released, Sendo Steel estimates that half a life will have to be removed, and Iketani will have to lose at least 20% of his blood. In this era, how many big companies in the world are PK, and who dares to be shot for no reason?

"Mr. Feng, we are here with sincerity. Hiraoka said stiffly.

"We very much welcome this sincerity. Feng Xiaochen said with a smile.

"We are willing to pay 10 billion yen to your government for preventive repairs to buildings made of Sendo steel. Kio Hiraoka threw out the first "sincerity".

"Uh-huh. Feng Xiaochen replied noncommittally.

"We have reached a consensus with Iketani Manufacturing that the accident at the Perot site has nothing to do with the Chinese workers, and that the Chinese workers are very skilled, and we are very satisfied with the cooperation with the Chinese side. We will hold a special press conference to clarify the false rumors to the media. ”

"And rightfully so. ”

"We will work with your Ministry of Education to set up a Sendo Scholarship to sponsor Chinese students to study in Japan, with a quota of 500 per year. ”

"Hmm. ”

"We will cooperate with the Department of Materials Science and Technology of Jingcheng University of Technology in your country to establish a materials technology research institute, and hire Ms. Du Xiaodi as the director of the institute. The funding of the institute is 100 million yen per year, and the first phase of cooperation will last for 10 years. ”

"Huh. ”

"In addition, we would like to hire Mr. Feng as our technical consultant with a salary of 20 million yen per year. In addition, if Mr. Feng comes to Japan to guide the work, all the cost of room and board will be borne by us......"

"Sounds like a good condition, but what else?"

"And ......" Hiraoka Shu Nan was speechless, losing money, apologizing, and giving personal benefits to the person concerned, isn't this enough? However, since he has already saved the idea of offering chrysanthemums, he naturally has to satisfy the other party, he said:

"As for other requirements, please ask Mr. Feng to give us some tips. As long as we can do it, we will try to be satisfied. ”

Feng Xiaochen said: "Just now Mr. Hiraoka said that he came with sincerity, which naturally means that we are friends and partners. Since we're partners, we can't just contribute money and efforts, and we don't do anything, right?"

"Uh...... Yes!" Hiraoka was stunned, how could this sound a little wrong.

"We have always cherished our friendship with Xiando Steel, and in order to show this friendship, our Jiangcheng Iron and Steel Plant once solemnly proposed to your company to cooperate in the development of ultra-low temperature steel for large-scale ethylene equipment, but you have not agreed. I think that from the sincerity of both parties, Mr. Hiraoka will be able to facilitate this cooperation."

Feng Xiaochen grinned and bared his fangs.
