Chapter 159: To Rénia
Kava Kaisa's call came not too late, Yi Xingchen returned to the hotel, and about two hours later, he called and sincerely invited Yi Xingchen to go to Rénia with him for an on-the-spot investigation.
Yi Xingchen agreed to Kawa Kaisa's invitation, and the two agreed to go to Madagascar together two days later, and then go to Reunion by ship.
Hanging up the phone, Yi Xingchen began to think about what to do next.
Reunion has always been a completely unfamiliar country for Yi Xingchen. Although the government of Rénia announced to the world that they would treat investors well, Yi Xingchen could not help but take some precautions. Besides, he was going to take cash to Rénia, and he couldn't help but prevent the fortune from moving.
Therefore, after Yi Xingchen first consulted Ma Fei, he spent $300,000 in a security company called Blackbird in the United States to hire three male bodyguards to follow him to Reunion to protect his personal and property safety.
Then, Yi Xingchen also bought a satellite phone in the United States and recharged 50,000 US dollars in one go to ensure his basic call expenses within a year.
Just as Yi Xingchen was intensively preparing for his trip, Tom of Luolai Company called again.
It turned out that when Tom learned from Ma Fei that Yi Xingchen was going to Reunion and would build a winery there, he immediately took a fancy to this business opportunity. Tom has always hoped to have further cooperation with Yi Xingchen in the wine industry, so this news is naturally great news for Tom.
Tom took the initiative to show kindness to Yi Xingchen - and made a suggestion that the Rolley Company could send a female assistant to accompany Yi Xingchen to Rénia. Assist him in all business activities.
Originally. Yi Xingchen has always been accustomed to acting alone. I didn't really want to bring one more person with me, but in view of Tom's ability to guarantee the female assistant's work, and her certain understanding of the laws and legal affairs of various countries, considering that she could indeed help herself deal with the relevant legal issues involved in setting up a new company in an unfamiliar country, Yi Xingchen finally accepted Tom's suggestion and agreed to bring the female assistant with him.
Two days later, Yi Xingchen took his self-organized business delegation with him, Helen Saladin, an American female assistant, and three Blackbird bodyguards. Depart for the destination country, Rénia.
Led by Rénian diplomat Cava Keisa, the group first flew to Madagascar, where they rested for a short time before switching to a steamer. After a long journey of two days and two nights, Yi Xingchen finally arrived at Reunion Island in Rénia.
Looking at the shore scenery that is gradually becoming clear because he is about to land, Yi Xingchen has mixed feelings in his heart, with excitement and uneasiness, and the passion for entrepreneurship. There are also strangers to unknown countries. However, just as Yi Xingchen fell into deep thought. Kawa suddenly ran into the cabin and informed Yi Xingchen of a big news: "Mr. Yi, we are about to arrive in Rénia, and our prime minister attaches great importance to your arrival and will personally greet you." Now, the Prime Minister is waiting for you at the docks. ”
Hearing this news, Yi Xingchen was secretly shocked in his heart, this is a bit exaggerated.
Yi Xingchen really didn't expect that he would be greeted by the prime minister of a country as an investor, which couldn't help but make him feel a little flattered.
It's just that after thinking about it, Yi Xingchen was relieved. Because he thought that Rénia was only a small country with a population of about 100,000, and it was not even as large as the population of a third-tier city in China or some large towns. Relatively speaking, although in Rénia, he is the prime minister, in China, it is at most equivalent to the level of a mayor.
Of course, being valued by others, Yi Xingchen still feels satisfied, and because of this, he has a good impression of Reunion. Let's ask, Yi Xingchen, as an investor who contributed money, went to a small place to invest and bring benefits to the locality, but the local parents and officials turned a blind eye to this, isn't it easy for people to feel chilled?
Moreover, investors need a guarantee to ensure that personal and property are not infringed, and if the national government pays attention to it, this guarantee can be achieved, which is of course very frustrating for investors like Yi Xingchen.
"Okay, please wait a moment, I'll wash up and tidy up my appearance before I can meet your Prime Minister. Yi Xingchen replied, of course, he did not forget to give the same respect. Both sides need to respect each other, since the other party has given Yi Xingchen enough respect, Yi Xingchen must also show the side that he values in order to be worthy of the other party's identity and status.
Hearing this, Kawa nodded in satisfaction.
In less than five minutes, Yi Xingchen finished freshening up, but it would take more than ten minutes before the ship docked, so he did not rush out of the cabin, but took out his mobile phone and checked the map while comparing what he had seen and heard along the way. Because, along the way, Yi Xingchen did not stay idle all the time, just enjoying the scenery along the way, but took the opportunity to experience it first-hand and inspect the maritime traffic around Reunion Island.
These things allowed Yi Xingchen to confirm a more favorable information - Kawa Kaiser finally did not do anything deceptive such as exaggeration.
On the whole, Rénia's maritime capacity is indeed not bad, not only can you see a lot of cargo ships, but even the Rénian government operates an independent passenger fleet in the name of the country, a total of three passenger bulk carriers, operating two fixed routes, namely Rénia to Madagascar and Rénia to South Africa.
In addition, Rénia also has two small ocean-going passenger bulk carriers that travel between South Africa, Mozambique, Tanzania, Kenya and other countries. Kawa told Yi Xingchen that if he was willing to pay, the Rénian government was willing to give priority to the goods he produced at the Rénian factory on ships at a more favorable price.
Based on these circumstances, Yi Xingchen is still quite satisfied with Rénia. Therefore, in this gap, Yi Xingchen has already begun to consider whether it is suitable to establish a winery in Reunion.
Ten minutes later, the ship docked, and Yi Xingchen and other people, under the guidance of Kava, stepped off the passenger ship and stepped onto the dock.
At this time, Yi Xingchen saw that on the dock, there were four cars lined up side by side, and there was a group of people waiting next to the cars.
Sure enough, when this group of people saw Yi Xingchen and them walking on the dock, they immediately greeted them. (To be continued......)
