Spain is also a country with a very developed food culture, and the celebration banquet of Honggang is quite large-scale, and it seems that Jiang Huanwen is ruthless with a little blood. Due to the substantial savings in the expenditure on the introduction of electric furnaces, both the Foreign Trade Department and the Metallurgical Department have given full understanding to Jiang Huanwen's generosity.

Although Jiang Huanwen kept saying that Qin Hai was the biggest contributor to the introduction of equipment this time, when it came time to talk about wine as heroes, the names of Qin Hai and Chen Hongcheng could only be ranked very back, and the first in line was naturally Zhu Xiaofeng and other government officials, and even diplomats from the embassy. Qin Hai would not care about this kind of false name on the scene, and the people on the scene were very aware of the actual situation.

Some good people have concluded: when you look at a research report, the few people at the bottom of the list are often the real writers, and the ones at the top may not even be able to say the name of the project; Looking at a meritorious service report, the few people who are ranked behind are often the people who have really made contributions, and the people who are in front are the "relevant leaders" who have only given important spiritual support.

At the celebration of the introduction of electric stoves, the names of Qin Hai and Chen Hongcheng were the last two, and even Chen Hongcheng's name was still before Qin Hai.

After some praise and self-praise, the banquet entered the stage of free conversation. Wang Zheyi, who was appointed by the embassy to attend the banquet, came to Qin Hai with a smile with half a glass of red wine, raised his glass, and said, "Comrade Xiao Qin, congratulations." ”

Qin Hai hurriedly picked up his cup, but he pretended to be a little stupid: "Secretary Wang, I don't know what you congratulated." ”

"There's so much to congratulate you." Wang Zheyi covered his mouth slightly with his hand and smiled lightly, and said, "First of all, you helped Director Jiang and them complete this difficult negotiation and achieved an amazing reversal. Shouldn't I congratulate you on this? ”

Qin Hai shook his head and said, "Then you congratulated the wrong person, you should go and congratulate Director Jiang and them." In Mr. Zhu's words, the excitement is theirs, and I have nothing. ”

"Won't you be honored when you return home?" Wang Zheyi asked with big beautiful eyes. I don't know if she was born charming, or if she learned to be cute after engaging in diplomatic work. Qin Hai had to admit that this girl's expression was very lethal when she blinked.

"Commendation...... I guess there will be a little bit, but what's the use of this commendation for me? Qin Hai replied with a smile.

Wang Zheyi can also imagine what kind of commendation Qin Hai can get in the future from the pattern of today's celebration banquet, overemphasizing Qin Hai's contribution means that everyone else is a waste, and Hongyuan Province will never do such a thing, so Qin Hai can only show a small face on the report in the end, which is equivalent to the role of passerby A.

She nodded. He added: "Then let's talk about other things, I heard that Xiao Qin successfully negotiated several big deals during your time in Madrid, and also established a cooperative relationship with Leonardo, a steel tycoon in Madrid, is this worth congratulating?" ”

"Wouldn't it? Who do you listen to? Qin Hai was taken aback, only Chen Hongcheng participated in the negotiation with Leonardo, and Zhu Xiaofeng and they were completely unaware. But how could this Wang Zheyi know the Tao?

Wang Zheyi was very satisfied with the effect she had created, and she smiled: "What have Chinese citizens done in Spain? How can our embassy not keep abreast of it in time? Besides, if the steel tycoon wants to cooperate with your small Red Sea company, he also needs to ask our embassy to help understand the authenticity, right? ”

"I actually forgot about that." Qin Hai said with some annoyance.

Wang Zheyi is right, of course, Leonardo can't establish a cooperative relationship with them without even figuring out their details, and it is the least prudent to find out some information from the embassy. As for the embassy, of course, it will not take such a thing lightly. Knowing the details of Qin Hai's interactions with Leonardo through some secret channels is also a responsible approach to national security.

In the face of the powerful state apparatus, Qin Hai really has no secrets to speak of with these careful eyes. He cautiously asked Wang Zheyi, "Secretary Wang, I want to inquire." The state should have no restrictions on my cooperation with Leonardo, right? ”

Wang Zheyi said: "Don't worry, we don't care about foreign trade, as long as you don't sell national intelligence, we won't interfere in anything." However, I would also like to remind you that foreign cooperation is an act that the state actively encourages, but if you do anything that is detrimental to national interests and insults the national dignity in foreign cooperation, the state will never allow it. ”

"Can you please stop talking to me so seriously? I'm really a little scared......" Qin Hai said with a grin. He already understood the hint in Wang Zheyi's words, that is, Qin Hai's behavior was contrary to the requirements of the foreign trade department, but because it did not involve national security, the embassy would not intervene.

Wang Zheyi didn't have any ill feelings towards Qin Hai. She was generally aware of all these things that Qin Hai was doing in Madrid, and she had discussed this issue with Ambassador Luo of the embassy, and Ambassador Luo believed that a person like Qin Hai who had the ability to move and could win the interests of the country in foreign exchanges was very valuable and worthy of the embassy's protection.

Ambassador Luo didn't care about the behind-the-scenes transactions between Qin Hai and Leonardo, not to mention that the Red Sea Company behind Qin Hai was just a private company, and it was not uncommon for state-owned enterprises to collude with foreign businessmen to launder money. The purpose of these state-owned enterprises to launder money is to free up foreign exchange to buy luxury goods, while Qin Hai's purpose is to import foreign raw materials and equipment, and the two have superior motives, which makes Ambassador Luo and Wang Zheyi appreciate Qin Hai even more.

Regarding these views, it is impossible for Wang Zheyi to explain them to Qin Haihe, she hinted at Qin Hai, and Qin Hai immediately understood it, which made Wang Zheyi very happy. She deliberately stiffened her face and said, "Comrade Xiao Qin, please be serious, we are not chatting in a café now, but having a serious conversation. ”

"Look at my brain!" Qin Hai patted his head, and out of nowhere, he turned out a small stack of colorful cards, handed them to Wang Zheyi's hand, and said, "Secretary Wang, this is for you." We may be leaving Madrid soon, and what we promised you, we have to carry it out. ”

"What is this?" Wang Zheyi inexplicably took the stack of cards and looked at it, and couldn't help but be startled, and his face turned red for no reason. It turned out to be a stack of Liss fancy ice cream coupons on Serrano Commercial Street, and there were more than a dozen cases. Wang Zheyi has always known the price of this kind of ice cream, and one case can eat up a month's salary. When she first met Qin Hai, in order to hit his self-confidence, she said that Qin Hai would invite her to eat Liss ice cream, but she didn't expect Qin Hai to really remember it.

"You're crazy, how much does this cost!" Wang Zheyi lowered his voice and said, and at the same time looked at both sides weakly. Fortunately, everyone is busy flattering Zhu Xiaofeng and the others now, and no one pays attention to their two smallest characters.

Qin Haidao: "You just take it, I don't have time to accompany you to eat, so I can only give you a few coupons." However, this coupon was not given to Miss Wang for free, and there may be something to ask Miss Wang for help in the future. ”

"I knew you were sugar-coated shells." Wang Zheyi finally relieved herself, she knew that Qin Hai had hooked up with Spanish businessmen in Madrid and made a lot of money, and these dozen ice cream coupons were very expensive in her opinion, and they might really be just a drop in the bucket for Qin Hai. She stuffed the card into her Xiao Kun bag, and then said: "I will accept the sugar coating, return the shells, if you want to ask this girl to do something, you have to go to the embassy through your foreign affairs department, otherwise you will not be able to talk about it." ”

"I want you to help buy some academic materials or something, and I want to write it?" Qin Hai said with a smile.

Wang Zheyi smiled and said, "I can help ...... with this favor."

"Uh-huh, that's enough." Qin Hai said.

Sending ice cream coupons to Wang Zheyi was just a whim of Qin Hai. That day, he and Chen Hongcheng happened to pass by Serrano Commercial Street, and when they encountered an ice cream shop doing promotions, he paid for more than a dozen cards, ready to find time to give them to Wang Zheyi. Wang Zheyi gave people a feeling of elegance and refinement, which made Qin Hai like it very much, which was one of the reasons why he gave Wang Zheyi coupons. As for the other reason, it is a bit of a philistine, that is, Qin Hai feels that he has a lot of business to handle through Spain in the future, and it is still very beneficial to make friends with the staff of an embassy.

Accepting Qin Hai's gift, Wang Zheyi felt a little embarrassed, and for a while, the two of them seemed to be unable to find anything to say. Wang Zheyi raised his glass to Qin Hai, took a sip of red wine, and then said left and right: "I really don't like the weather in Madrid, I still like the capital." ”

"What, Miss Wang is from Beijing?" Qin Hai asked casually.

Wang Zheyi nodded, then reached into his bag and took out the notepad, found a pencil and wrote a few words, handed it to Qin Hai, and said: "Qin Hai, in fact, I may not be able to work in the embassy for long, and I will return to China next year at the latest." This is my home address in the capital, if you have anything to do in the capital, you can come to my house to find me. ”

With that, she turned around and walked towards the others with her cup in hand. Qin Hai unfolded the note in his hand and looked at it, only to see a phone number and an address written on it: Building XXX, No. XX, Sanlihe Road, Beijing.

A few days later, the delegation of Hongyuan Province ended its work in Spain and left for China. Wang Zheyi sent the delegation to the airport, and before entering the security gate, she stuffed a small pocket into Qin Hai's hand, and then waved her hand away. Qin Hai opened his pocket and saw that it was filled with some casual snacks for killing time on the plane, but they were bought according to the taste of girls, which made Qin Hai feel crying and laughing.

The plane flew over Eurasia and landed at Pujiang Airport. When he walked out of the airport, Qin Hai saw the giant banner in front of him: Warmly welcome the Hongyuan Provincial delegation back with honors. (To be continued......)
