On April 11, 1989, Su Cheng and others arrived in Houston, USA, and they went to the consulate with the delegation without informing He Yuwei first.

Inside the door wall, the lanterns are colorful, all red flower ornaments, yellow banners, colorful flags, the wind blows, and the air is floating in the Chinese style.

Fat leaned on the wheelchair and said in surprise: "This won't be a welcome for us." ”

Qin Yun looked up at the colorful flags surrounded by Christmas lights, and replied to the question: "It's so beautiful, the color of people's fabrics is bright." ”

Dean Qin moved his muscles and bones, breaking everyone's illusions and said, "It can't be that we are welcome, the level is not enough." ”

No matter how you say it, there is no "level" to clearly understand, and everyone said "oh" in unison.

Although they were sure that they were not greeting themselves, everyone still found the embassy staff with anticipation, and looking at their elated expressions, Dean Qin took the initiative to step forward and ask, "What are you celebrating?"

The other party was a small man with a collapsed nose, looking up at Qin Shiwei's protruding chest muscles by an inch, swallowing and spitting: "We are celebrating the first time that the Chinese Navy has crossed the 180-degree meridian and docked in Hawaii. ”

Qin Shiwei was surprised: "180 degrees meridian?

The little man raised his head with his chest straight, faced everyone, and said seriously: "Set off on March 31, cross the date change line at 7:45 on April 8, and on April 11, Zheng He arrived on Hawaii Island!"

Hearing him so accurate time, everyone couldn't help but be awe-struck.

The little man said solemnly: "This is the first step of the Chinese ship towards the deep blue, a day worth remembering and celebrating." Even if you beat me, it can't be today, we want to take pictures. ”

When it comes to the last sentence, it finally changes its taste.

Qin Shiwei, who was intoxicated with emotion, frowned, his fingers clenched into a keyboard-wide fist, and said, "Which eye of yours can see that I am going to beat you." ”

Su Cheng felt that if Qin Shiwei punched out, he would have to smash out 101 bones.

The little man stared at his keyboard-wide fist, suddenly felt dangerous, and hurriedly laughed and said, "I'm talking nonsense." How can you beat someone. There's no way to beat someone, right?"

"Right?" he wasn't sure, but he looked at the little fat man in the wheelchair carefully, thinking: The fat man has always been a good person, and this one is probably too.

As a quasi-son-in-law, Xiaopang's fear of Comrade Qin Shiwei has gone deep into the bone marrow. He shook his head firmly and slowly.

The little man looked at each other, leaning on the wall with his hands, looking like he was about to faint.

Qin Yun clapped his hands helplessly. Make a snapping sound. Cai said: "No one will beat people, we are a delegation from China and participate in several important meetings." Please arrange it. ”

The little man closed his eyes tightly and leaned against the wall and did not dare to move.

Xiaopang was startled and whispered: "Don't be frightened. ”

Qin Yun said: "How is it possible. What's there to be afraid of?"

Xiaopang raised his eyelids and said, "When you were born, even if you saw a bear, you would call Daddy." You can't understand other people's feelings, the first time I met your dad, I saw that the tendons on those big arms were thicker than my calves, and I thought how thin I was......"

"Hmmm......"

Chubby suddenly felt that the wheelchair was blowing a gust of fishy wind in the air.

He glanced upward, and his eyes were all the colors of the Black Tower. He immediately shrunk his neck and said with a smile, "Dean Qin...... We're tired of talking...... Alas. This guy still has his eyes closed, don't die. ”

"Don't talk nonsense!" Qin Yun looked at his father, who was twice the size of the others, and stretched out a little finger to probe the staff's snort.

After a while, Qin Yun stroked his chest: "It's okay, I'm not dead." ”

As he spoke, the door of the consulate opened. Another female cadre in her 30s walked out.

She glanced at the little one and asked, not surprised, "What unit are you from?"

"We are the delegation of China's Shengli Oilfield. Wei Kong hurriedly replied.

The regiment commander Wu Hong was afraid that something would happen, so he hurried up and said: "We are two regiments, and their regiment is hitchhiking." ”

Wei Kong glared at him and said, "We are two regiments. But together. ”

"It can't be counted together, two groups of people and two brands......" Wu Hong insisted.

All kinds of chaos. The female cadre smiled: "In this way, welcome compatriots of the motherland, you wait a minute, I will wake up Xiao Lizi first." As she spoke, the female cadre took out a stick from Xiao Lizi's pocket, peeled off the skin in three or two strokes, and handed it to Xiao Lizi's mouth.

After a while, the little plum who licked the clean stick finally recovered in anticipation, opened his eyes, and smiled reluctantly: "I'm sorry, I have a problem with low blood sugar, I can't stand the fright, and I get sick when I'm afraid!"

"Low blood sugar shouldn't be that long. Shu Lan asked puzzled, her big eyes full of doubts.

Xiao Lizi was embarrassed by her, and whispered: "It shouldn't have been so long, but I think it's dangerous to wake up early, so I'll be dizzy for a while." ”

As he spoke, he pulled out another chocolate bar and gently put it in his mouth. The salaries of consulate staff are much higher than those in China.

Dean Qin's black face was undoubtedly carbonized.

"Can I make a phone call?" Su Cheng didn't want to play low blood sugar with them anymore.

The female cadre pointed inside. After Su Cheng entered, he dialed He Yuwei's phone and made an appointment before pushing Xiaopang and turning around in the small building.

The area of the consulate is not small, and the two quickly found a lounge, where the TV was playing American news, although it was in English, but the two big words "Zheng He" appeared from time to time, which still attracted the attention of the two.

Su Cheng gently pushed Chubby to the back of the chair.

Chubby's English is terrible, he can't understand the TV show, so he listens to the other people in the lounge. Since it was a consulate, when everyone talked about the Blue Sea Navy and the warships that crossed the meridian, there were many incisive remarks, and everyone's faces were also full of light.

Hearing this, Xiaopang's blood also boiled, and he said: "Unconsciously, our navy has also become powerful. ”

"It's going to get better and better. Sioux City replied in the affirmative.

"If I lose 40 pounds, I will also go to the navy and serve the country. Chubby clenched his fists.

Su Cheng smiled faintly and said, "Serving the motherland is not the only way for the army. ”

"What else?"

"It is your contribution to build warships for the navy, tanks for the army, and to extract oil to make fuel. ”

Chubby was stunned. He said happily: "After we go back, I will find a way to increase production, and you will also get Jinan Power Engine Factory, and the diesel engine can be built on the tank......

Su Cheng smiled and said, "Then you need to do it." ”

"Jinan Power Engine Factory is the production of 190 series diesel engines. The person sitting in front of him suddenly turned his head and interjected.

Su Cheng saw that his waist was straight. I know it's an officer. So he smiled cautiously: "It's Jichai." ”

"Jichai's engine has been used on the fishery administration ships of Fujian, Guangdong, and Shandong, you have done it. In itself, it is a matter of serving the country. The young officer glanced at the chubby wheelchair a few times, gave him a thumbs up, and said, "Don't look at your poor health." But if you have this heart and can continue to work, it is the best support for the country, you can read the articles written by Zhang Haidi, and you will never give up if you are disabled!"

He smiled amicably at the two of them and went back to watching TV.

Xiaopang waited for Su Cheng to push him out of the lounge, and said worriedly: "It's over, even if my leg is good when I come back, I will have to use a wheelchair." Otherwise, there is no way to explain it to others. ”

……

Half an hour later, He Yuwei also rushed into the consulate and looked at Su Cheng with tears in her eyes. I don't know, I thought they were meeting on Tanabata.

Still Shiro, worried that Su Cheng would make a mistake, shouted: "Brother, shall we go out to stay in a hotel?"

He Yuwei came to her senses. Busy said: "I have booked the hotel, not far from here, I also hired two cars, a Buick sedan for Sioux City, and a business car for everyone to sit in." ”

A group of people said goodbye to the rest of the delegation. One after another left the consulate. Shu Lan obediently followed Su Cheng's side, holding his arm with one hand. Not a word.

At this time, Sioux City had a chance to ask, "Have you contacted the upper echelons of Haliburton?"

He Yuwei shook her head slowly.

"Where's that guy from the Department of International Affairs?"

"No, there isn't. No more appointments. He Yuwei whispered, "I used the money once, and I was warned, if I go to send the money again, they will expel me." ”

"Being warned means that there is no evidence, and you should find a good lawyer. ”

"Do you want to send money again?" He Yuwei was already anxiously fidgeting, hearing Su Cheng say this, she didn't have time to explore the feasibility, and immediately flipped out her notebook, crossed out a phone number by phone number, and said, "We need to meet at least one ordinary vice president before we can contact the executive vice president." Brown's position at Haliburton is quite high, which makes it harder for me to reach him, and now, which one do we break first?"

Her speed of speech was already faster than Wang Sheng's.

Su Cheng shook his head and said, "I believe that you have made a full visit, since this vice president of Brown can't look down on COSCO Shipping, and he can't look down on Dahua Industrial, I won't go." ”

"Don't go...... What should I do then?" He Yuwei thought that after seeing Su Cheng, the matter would be resolved, and the feeling of loss was beyond words.

Su Cheng said in a low voice: "I want to study the recent newspapers and periodicals, and the specific method, we will talk about it in two days." ”

He Yuwei could only nod.

Qin Yun waited for them to finish their business before letting go of their suppressed excitement, pulled Shu Lan and He Yuwei, and said, "It's okay today, let's go shopping, let's go shopping, let's go shopping......"

The same few words, with different tones, have different emotions.

Shu Lan nodded indifferently, but He Yuwei was full of lawsuits, looked at Qin Yun with envy, and said, "I used to love shopping like you, but now I can't." ”

"Is it because you're too busy on business?"

He Yuwei said sadly: "A few days ago, I took the lady's route and accompanied a wife to go shopping. I have to help her carry things, I have to pay for her, and I have to keep complimenting her...... Suddenly I felt that shopping was boring. ”

Stars almost flashed in the little fat eyes, and he slapped his thighs: "That's good......!
