Chapter 932: Unwilling
Shen Zhenxin turned his head to look at Lei Xiaotian when he heard this, only to see Lei Xiaotian's eyes flickering, as if he knew what the inside story was, and it was inconvenient to understand it. Shen Zhenxin knew that Lei Xiaotian's connections were quite extensive, otherwise he would not have eaten so well in the war-torn place of the Middle East. After thinking about it, if Lightning was really that kind of dangerous element, how could Zhu Mingyan introduce Lightning to him? Thinking back to what happened when he was with Lightning, Shen Zhenxin's heart relaxed a little, and there was a smile on his face, Lei Xiaotian was right, Lightning came to Saudi Arabia, and it was only good for the Chinese people.
"Damn, what is this!" Lei Xiaotian violently spit out the wine that had been drunk in his mouth again, and complained loudly. Shen Zhenxin's face flickered, and he said with some annoyance: "Old Lei, you don't talk nonsense with me." It's a good wine, don't you think you? Lei Xiaotian picked up the bottle and looked at it, sure enough, it was an authentic dry red wine from the Mediterranean coast, and couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "No way, my tongue is spoiled by Longquan wine." Lao Shen, I know that you have always hidden a bottle of Longquan wine, how about it, take it out, don't be so stingy! Shen Zhen glared at him angrily and said, "Damn, you're embarrassed to speak." I finally got a bottle of Longquan wine, but I was reluctant to drink it, so I kept it hidden. And what about you, the Longquan wine at home is almost a mountain, why don't you bring me a bottle? ”
Lei Xiaotian smiled bitterly and said, "Don't mention it! It's been almost a month since I've seen Longquan Fine Wine. Yes, as long as someone returns to China, they always bring me a few bottles when they come back, and my friends in China will occasionally send a few bottles. But you know how much I drink, drinking is like drinking water, especially when it comes to this Longquan wine, it's like being addicted to drugs, and you can't stop until you finish drinking. Damn it. Sad! Shen Zhenxin glared at him angrily and said, "It's useless for you to worry, my bottle of Longquan wine and Du Ziji drank it up at noon today!" ”
"Duziki? You...... Isn't it a waste that you gave him such a good wine! You, you! Lei Xiaotian kept pointing at Shen Zhenxin with his fingers, and that expression meant 'you are a loser, you are a loser'. Shen Zhenxin frowned slightly, and asked faintly: "Old Lei, listen to what you mean, you seem to have a lot of opinions about Du Ziji?" ......" Lei Xiaotian snorted coldly and said, "Not only do you have opinions, it's just disgust." Hatred. Where is he the president of Saudi Arabia, he is simply a lackey of country M! I was so angry when I mentioned him that I wanted to shoot him! ”
It's no wonder that Lei Xiaotian has an opinion about Du Ziji. Du Ziji has been fighting since the time he came to power. It's the route of country M. Shoot the sycophants of country M everywhere. In order to curry favor with M, Du Ziji will naturally change the cold Huaxia of the law. This is true diplomatically, and even more so economically. In Saudi Arabia, it is not Saudi Arabia's own businessmen who enjoy the best treatment, but M country businessmen. Saudi Arabia can only settle for second place. The Chinese merchants couldn't even count third. Policies to assist American businessmen and curb Chinese businessmen emerged one after another. In Saudi Arabia, it is the Chinese merchants who pay the most taxes. The most restricted were also the Chinese merchants, which caused the Chinese merchants to suffer a lot of losses. Every time he mentions these, Lei Xiaotian, the president of the Overseas Chinese Chamber of Commerce, gritted his teeth with hatred.
"That's right. Du Ziji has always been ignorant of you, how could he suddenly eat with you? Lei Xiaotian scolded for a while, then suddenly reacted, looked at Shen Zhenxin with confusion and asked. Shen Zhenxin snorted coldly and said, "Du Ziji has something to ask us, so naturally he won't pretend to be an uncle anymore." "Du Ziji has something to ask you, and then you invite me to dinner after a hundred years......" Lei Xiaotian muttered carefully for a while, his face suddenly turned blue, and said in a deep voice: "Old Shen, Du Ziji is in financial crisis again, and is he ready to raise the tax rate of our Chinese businessmen?" I sue you, I will never agree, now we Chinese businessmen have paid two percent more taxes than the businessmen of country M, if it is raised again, this business will really not be able to do, no, absolutely not! ”
Seeing Lei Xiaotian's excited appearance, Shen Zhenxin smiled bitterly and said, "Old Lei, you think too much!" If this is the case, I will not agree, not to mention that Du Ziji invited me to dinner, he just sent me to the guillotine, and I will not agree. This is related to the interests of our Chinese businessmen, and I, as an ambassador, will never be ambiguous! Hearing Shen Zhenxin say this, Lei Xiaotian calmed down and asked curiously, "Then what did Du Ziji do when he invited you to dinner?" Shen Zhenxin smiled and said, "Don't be busy talking about this matter first, I invited you here today, not only for dinner, but also to discuss one more thing with you." ”
Lei Xiaotian said in a loud voice: "As long as it does not go against the interests of our Chinese businessmen, you can say anything." "At the beginning, the Chinese businessmen in Sha jointly elected Lei Xiaotian to be the leader, which is not wrong at all, just look at the fact that Lei Xiaotian is now considering the interests of Chinese businessmen everywhere. Shen Zhenxin smiled and said, "It's a business. Today, after drinking Longquan wine, Du Ziji praised him, he hoped that Longquan wine could be imported to Saudi Arabia, and promised to give us the most preferential tariff policy. I think it's a business opportunity, but I don't know if you're willing to do it! ”
Lei Xiaotian was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said with a wry smile: "That Du Ziji, I really didn't expect him to have a little vision. It's a pity that the wish is beautiful, but the reality is cruel! After listening to Lei Xiaotian's words, Shen Zhenxin asked with some puzzlement, "What do you mean by this?" Lei Xiaotian said: "Do you think I haven't thought about it? When I first tasted Longquan wine, I realized that this wine has great commercial prospects, and if it can be introduced to Saudi Arabia, it will definitely make a lot of money with the affluence of the Saudis. "Have you thought about it? Isn't that great, why not do it? Shen Zhenxin became more and more puzzled.
Lei Xiaotian continued: "When I had this idea in my heart, I tried to do some research, and it turned out that so far, Longquan Fine Wine has not entered any country except for the hot sales in country M. The super taste of Longquan wine gives it super aggressiveness, no matter which country or market it enters, it will soon occupy a piece of the world, and Longquan Group did not do this, which is like making money without making money, don't you think it is suspicious? Shen Zhenxin nodded slowly and said, "Is there a problem?" So what are the conclusions of your investigation? Lei Xiaotian smiled bitterly and said, "The conclusion is...... In short supply! "Demand outstrips supply?" Shen Zhenxin was stunned for a moment and asked.
Lei Xiaotian let out a long sigh and said, "Yes! Longquan Group's current output is still unable to meet the two markets of China and M, so how can it take care of the Saudi Arabian market? "No, the supply exceeds the demand, so the production can be expanded!" Obviously, the more you produce, the more you earn, why doesn't Longquan Group consider reinvesting and expanding its production scale? Although Shen Zhenxin is not an economist, he still understands the most basic economic knowledge. Lei Xiaotian said: "At the beginning, I also had the same doubts, but after some investigation, I realized that it was not that Longquan Group did not want to expand the scale of production, but that it was unable to do so. It must be limited by some kind of raw material. ”
"What raw materials? I have carefully looked at the raw materials of Longquan Liquor, and the things in it are all very ordinary things, which can be seen everywhere, what restrictions can there be? Shen Zhenxin felt more and more puzzled, and questioned loudly. Lei Xiaotian smiled bitterly and said, "Can you use these ordinary things to produce wine with a taste like Longquan Wine?" If that's the case, then Longquan Liquor is not yet flying into the sky? According to my guess, the reason why Longquan Wine has such a unique taste that is deeply rooted in people's hearts should be that a mysterious raw material is added to it, and it is obvious that Longquan Wine has hidden this mysterious raw material. How could such a top-notch trade secret end up on the outer shell of the package? ”
"That'...... Is there no other way? "Shen Zhenxin always felt that this was a good opportunity, and it was even possible to use this as an opportunity to completely change the status of Chinese businessmen in Saudi Arabia, he really didn't want to give up, not to mention that in this way, he would no longer have to worry about not being able to drink Longquan wine." Yes! There's only one way! Lei Xiaotian's expression perked up and he said loudly. Shen Zhenxin's heart was overjoyed, and he hurriedly asked, "What way?" Lei Xiaotian said in a condensed voice: "Since Longquan Group is limited by raw materials and cannot expand production, the only way to do this is to let Longquan Group reduce its sales share in country M and put some of it in Saudi Arabia." ”
Shen Zhenxin smiled bitterly and said, "A way is a way, but why do we let people do this?" Isn't this an extra move, if you are the adjudicator of the Longquan Group, you will not do such a senseless thing! Lei Xiaotian said with a smile: "From business alone, of course it won't be from the point of view of interests, but the more human feelings are involved, it will be different!" Shen Zhenxin's brows furrowed, and he asked in a deep voice: "Do you mean to ask me to ask the government to come forward and suppress the Longquan Group?" Lei Xiaotian waved his hand and said, "It's useless! Longquan Group has a deep background in China, and if you want to press it, one word is 'difficult'! ”
"And what do you mean?" Shen Zhenxin asked. "I mean, can you get involved with the top management of the Longquan Group and convince them with personal friendships." Lei Xiaotian pouted and said. Shen Zhenxin smiled bitterly: "If it weren't for Longquan Liquor, I wouldn't have known that there was a company called Longquan Group." I don't know if their top leaders are men or women, how do I get involved with people? Isn't that nonsense? Lei Xiaotian sighed and said faintly: "That's why I said that the wish is beautiful, but the reality is cruel!" Forget it, you let Du Ziji stop thinking about it, you also die of this heart! ”
"Such a good opportunity, is it really going to be missed like this? I'm not reconciled to that! Shen Zhenxin slapped the table, his face full of unwillingness. Lei Xiaotian shook his head helplessly, he couldn't help such a situation. The two of them were drinking relatively speechlessly, and suddenly the phone in Lei Xiaotian's pocket rang. Lei Xiaotian frowned, swallowed the food in his mouth, and then pressed the answer button, the call was from his vice president, and the news delivered to him surprised him...... (To be continued.)
