Chapter 53: The Pretty Manager
The plane arrived in Frankfurt at 12 noon local time, which is 7 p.m. Beijing time, with a time difference of about seven hours. As soon as the plane got off the plane, there was a representative of the company to pick up the company, which shows that the German Schweiying company also attaches great importance to the delegation of the Shanghai Construction Engineering Administration to its company, after all, the other party came to inspect their products, they analyzed that the delegation must be to introduce advanced concrete machinery products from Germany, maybe this is a big order, how can they not be warmly received? If other companies snatch this big order, this is the result they don't want to see, after all, they are not the only concrete machinery manufacturers in Germany, and they don't know whether the Huhai Construction Engineering Administration delegation has plans to inspect several other concrete machinery manufacturers.
Representatives of Shi Weiying's company who came to greet the delegation, a man and two women. The German man was about thirty years old, tall, with thick blond hair and deep eyes and a high nose. A German woman was about twenty-five or sixteen years old, with curly blond hair, a good face and a good figure. Another German woman, in her mid-thirties, was ordinary-looking and wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses. At this moment, the German man held a sign, and his eyes kept searching the crowd pouring out of the exit of the airport. The two women also used those wonderful eyes to swim in the crowd from time to time, it seemed that they had been waiting here for a long time, because the plane was half an hour late, so they also seemed a little anxious, for fear of missing the Chinese delegation, if they did not receive anyone, or even lost the list, they would be very strict zhòng dereliction of duty.
The Germans are really conscientious and conscientious in their work. The Germans are serious and careful, have a strong sense of responsibility, and cannot be a little perfunctory in their work. The two men are clearly happy with their current job and don't want to lose it because of it. So they carefully looked at the Asians in each group of people, for fear that the other party would not see their pick-up card, and it would be troublesome for both sides to miss it.
Li Ruoyu saw these two people from afar, although there were a lot of people who picked up the airport, but there were only a few pieces of Chinese characters written on the pick-up card, Li Ruoyu saw the sign held by the German man at a glance, which was written in Chinese and English: Welcome to the delegation of the Shanghai Construction Engineering Administration, German Schweiying Machinery Company. The rest of the delegation also saw the sign of pick-up, and Cheng Nantong led the group to stride towards the representative of Shi Weiying's company.
A man and two women from Shi Weiying's company also noticed Li Ruoyu and his party at this time, as soon as they came, they were all oriental faces, and they were walking towards them. So the man greeted him and said to Cheng Nandao, who was the leader: "We are the representatives of Shi Weiying Machinery Company, are you from the delegation of the Huhai Construction Engineering Administration?" ”
The man spoke English, but Cheng Nantong did not understand English, but among the office administrators accompanying him, there was a young woman of twenty-seven or eight, named Mi Yun, who was acting as an interpreter for the delegation this time. Listening to the German man's question, Mi Yun hurriedly stood up and replied in English: "We are from the Huhai Construction Engineering Administration." This is our director, Cheng Nantong. After speaking, Mi Yun pointed to Cheng Nantong beside her.
At this time, the twenty-five or sixteen-year-old German woman walked to the front and enthusiastically stretched out her jade hand in front of Cheng Nantong, and then everyone reacted, it turned out that the youngest and most beautiful German woman was the person with the highest position among the three!
The German woman smiled and said in German: "Welcome to Germany for a visit to Wèn, I am Anna, the manager of the public relations department of Schweiying Machinery Company!" Just politely shook hands with Cheng Nantong, and Anna retracted her jade hand again. At this time, the woman wearing black-rimmed glasses walked up to Anna and repeated what Anna had just said in Chinese, and everyone realized that the woman was a translator.
Fortunately, Shi Weiying Machinery Company has a Chinese translator, otherwise it would be really difficult for the two sides to communicate. Because the delegation of the Shanghai Construction Engineering Administration did not find a special German translator, and now the German translator is not easy to find, so they can only let Mi Yun from the office, she is a top student who graduated from Fuming University majoring in English, and she needs to translate for this trip, whether it is to negotiate or sign a contract.
Cheng Nantong didn't expect that the public relations manager of Shi Weiying Machinery Company would be such a young and beautiful woman, which is rare in China, the public relations manager of a large company at the age of twenty-five or sixteen, this woman is not simple!
Cheng Nantong also said with a smile: "Thank you for your warm reception!" We are very happy to visit Germany and Schweiying. ”
Anna looked at the people in the delegation and found that most of them were middle-aged, in addition to the female translator of the delegation just now was a young woman, there was another person who particularly caught her attention, this person was Li Ruoyu. Because Li Ruoyu is too young, only 23 years old, his appearance in this delegation did make Anna a little surprised, not only the public relations minister noticed, but the German man also noticed Li Ruoyu's deposit.
Anna rolled her eyes and smiled, "It's not too early, I think everyone must be hungry!" So we had lunch near the airport before we took a flight to the city of Memmingen. ”
Cheng Nantong nodded and said, "Okay, then trouble Miss Anna!" ”
Schweiying Maschinenbau has two sites, one in Memmingen in southern Bavaria in southern Germany and one in the Ruhr industrial region in western Germany. As early as March 17, 1934, Mr. FW Schweiying, the founder of Schweiying Maschinen, founded Schweiying in the central city of the Ruhr industrial area, the most important industrial region in Germany. Schweiying's products have quickly won many customers in mining, highway construction, municipal engineering, and construction industries. When Germany's post-war reconstruction began in 1945, there was a huge opportunity for machinery in the construction industry. FW and Schweiying have risen to the challenge and developed a wide range of equipment, many of which are still state-of-the-art in the world today. These include hoists, mobile tower cranes, crawler cranes, hydraulic rock drills, concrete equipment, slurry equipment, and sludge equipment.
Also in 1945, STUDA was founded in Memmingen, Bavaria, southern Germany. In its early years, the company focused on the manufacture of concrete mixing plants, and later STUDA was merged into Schweiying. In 1958, STUDA pioneered the era of ready-mixed concrete and produced the first concrete mixer truck. Two years later, a concrete mixer truck supply station was developed. In 1964, STUDA began to manufacture concrete batching plants of considerable scale.
The delegation will first visit the mixing plant equipment production base of Schweiying Company in Memmingen City, and then go to the headquarters of Schweiying Company to negotiate the procurement of mixing plant equipment.
