When I heard that the Chinese delegation was going to hold a press conference, the reporters who were wandering around the venue were all enthusiastic.

Although China's reform and opening up has been nearly 10 years, the world does not know much about China, and most of these reporters at the venue are the first time to meet Chinese, and there is still a lot of mystery in their hearts. In addition, the small climax set off by China's thermal spraying machine at the venue on the first day was also fresh in the memory of the reporters, so when they got the news that the Chinese delegation was going to hold a press conference, all the reporters came to the second lecture hall on time.

"Distinguished ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon." Qin Hai stood on the podium with a smile and greeted everyone in English, "Thank you very much for your attention to the Chinese delegation in the past few days. Today we are holding a press conference here, the main purpose of which is to present to you a few gifts that we have brought from China, and at the same time to introduce you to a new household product that we have developed. ”

"Giving a gift?"

Giving gifts to journalists at press conferences is nothing new, but it is somewhat shocking to position the theme of the press conference as gift-giving. Before they could come to their senses, they saw three Chinese on each side of the room, two of them holding something in their hands, and a beautiful young girl walking in front of them.

The two girls on these two sides are naturally Ning Jing and Qin Shan, most of the men in the Chinese delegation are men, and most of the women are at the age of aunts, only Jing Jing and Qin Shan are suitable for the role of Miss Etiquette. When Qin Hai brought the two of them out, he didn't think that they could play so many roles, but now that he thinks about it, it is really a wise move to bring such two little girls.

In a look of surprise, Ning Jing and Qin Shan began to distribute gifts to the reporters, followed by the porter. Two girls dressed in fashion. With a smile on his face, people will feel good at first sight. Every reporter would not refuse their gifts, and many of them pulled them to their side after receiving the gifts, and then handed the camera to their peers next to them, so that they could take a photo of themselves and the beautiful Chinese girl.

The atmosphere in the meeting room suddenly became relaxed. It took 20 minutes for Ning Jing and Qin Shan to walk from one end of the venue to the other, and finally gave a gift to all the reporters. After the two girls completed their tasks, they returned to the podium, standing on both sides, one left and one right, with a stewardess posing, which attracted countless eyes. The flashing lights that lit up at them even exceeded the treatment given to Qin Hai.

Alas, beauty itself is news. Qin Hai thought teasingly, he believed that in the newspapers published around the world tomorrow, there would definitely be a few photos of the two little girls. This is not a bad thing, let the world see the demeanor of Chinese young people.

"Ladies and gentlemen." Qin Hai put away his nonsense and began to speak to everyone: "Everyone has just received the gift from Miss Ning Jing and Miss Qin Shan, now please open the gift and see what magical things are inside." ”

Each journalist received a gift in a cardboard box tied with colored ribbons. Reserved journalists, of course, don't go out in front of a large crowd to see what gifts they receive. Now listening to Qin Haiyi, everyone is interested. So they began to untie the ribbon and unpack it.

In the cardboard box, there are a few things:

A piece of soft fabric wrapped in cellophane, everyone is no stranger to this thing, this is a Chinese specialty of silk, judging from the volume. It should be a silk scarf or shawl. Chinese silk has always been very popular with Westerners, but if there are any surprises, it is not enough.

A folding fan, unfolded to reveal Chinese painting on one side and Chinese calligraphy on the other. This is also a gift with Chinese characteristics. But it doesn't arouse the curiosity of well-informed journalists.

The last thing was very strange, it was a knife wrapped in silk cloth, some people got a kitchen knife, some people got a fruit knife, and they were different. Surprisingly, this knife is white, smooth and delicate, and it is clearly made of ceramic. Compared with the knives that people usually use, it looks so elegant that it does not look like a household item, but a beautiful handicraft.

"Cake seller, what is this!" Some reporters who liked it shouted out.

"I recognize it, isn't this the ceramic rake piece that the Chinese delegation sent to participate in the test?" Another reporter responded, "The cake seller, it turns out that this thing can be made into a fruit knife!" ”

"It's so beautiful, and it can't be used to cut fruit, but it's also very nice to put on a bookshelf as a work of art." Some journalists with an artistic temperament are beginning to think about what is wrong.

"Who said it can't cut fruit, you see......" The puzzled engineering man appeared, they tore a piece of paper directly from the interview book, then picked up the ceramic knife in front of them, and easily cut the paper into pieces.

One person started like this, and the other reporters were inspired. For a while, there was a loud sound of paper cutting in the lecture hall, as if walking into a silkworm shed.

Qin Hai couldn't help but feel funny as he watched these childlike reporters testing the sharpness of ceramic knives. He let the crowd play for a few minutes before tapping the microphone to refocus everyone's attention.

"As we all know, China is the homeland of ceramics, and it has long been ...... Years ago, Chinese ceramics have been ......" Qin Hai first came to a lyrical statement, and then returned to the topic: "Today, with the help of high-tech means, Chinese enterprises have taken the lead in the world to overcome the nano-ceramic process, and produced the exquisite and sharp ceramic knife that everyone sees in front of their eyes......

This ceramic knife uses zirconium dioxide as the base material, which is safe and non-toxic, and the Mohs hardness can reach 9.0, second only to diamond. Regarding the wear resistance of zirconia ceramics, we can already see from the test of the basic parts of this expo that the wear resistance of the rake sheets we made with this material has reached nearly 900 hectares. In other words, this kind of ceramic knife in everyone's hand can be used for decades without worrying about the problem of blade wear, which is incomparable to traditional metal knives......"

The reporters who were able to come to interview the agricultural machinery exhibition were all a little scientifically literate and could judge that what Qin Hai said was true. They had just used this ceramic knife with their own hands, and they could feel its beauty and sharpness, and then they could not imagine the market potential of this product when they heard Qin Hai say this. Their faces were swollen and red, and they desperately recorded every word Qin Hai said, and the newsletters were already in their chests.

"This ceramic knife will be launched to the global market in the near future, and I sincerely hope that all media friends can help us to carry out vigorous publicity. Please remember a Chinese saying: which ceramic knife is good, China Linxi is looking for Qu Tao! ”

The last sentence, Qin Haiguo really said in Chinese. He said it very slowly, and it seemed catchy, and the reporters present followed with great interest: "Which ceramic knife is better, China Linxi is looking for Qu Tao!" ”

In the subsequent newspapers, more than a dozen of them wrote this original text in Chinese with phonetic transcription. So much so that many years later, when many foreigners show off their Chinese skills, they always say that they can recite a Chinese poem, which is called "Which Ceramic Knife is Good"......

"Okay, you're ready to go back and organize production."

At the end of the press conference, watching the reporters leave the venue with big knives in their hands, Qin Hai said to Liu Shuo and Huang Yanling with a smile.

"Xiao Qin, you are so capable!" Liu Shuo took Qin Hai's hand, and he didn't know how to say it. At this moment, he secretly made up his mind in his heart that no matter what kind of development the Brother Ceramics Factory had, he would never be able to leave Qin Hai's guidance. This is a young man who can create a miracle, and his energy is much stronger than Liu Shuo and his more than a dozen families combined.

"Brother Liu, Sister Huang, Qin Hai always uses me and Shan'er as cheap labor, you have to call the shots for us!" Tranquility pouted, selling cuteness to Liu Shuo and Huang Yanling. At that moment just now, she and Qin Shan were in the limelight enough, and now they are still happy in their hearts, so they have to find someone to talk to.

"Xiao Ning and Xiao Qin, they have all worked hard. After the exhibition the day after tomorrow, the eldest sister will take you to visit São Paulo, and the eldest sister will buy you whatever you want to eat. Huang Yanling stroked Ning Jing and Qin Shan's heads, and promised with a smile.

"I want imported chocolate!" Serenity shouted.

Qin Shan reminded in a low voice: "Can the chocolate we buy abroad be considered imported?" ”

"Why is it not imported, how can you eat if you don't import it?" Ning Jing knew that she was wrong, but she refused to admit defeat, so she simply made a gesture of opening her mouth and asked Qin Shan to see what "import" was.

"Okay, eldest sister will buy it for you! You can buy as much as you want. Huang Yanling said with an oath.

"Sister Huang, are you sure you have so much foreign exchange?" Qin Hai smiled and said a short sentence. Everyone in the delegation only has a few dollars of pocket money a day issued by the state, which is not enough to buy souvenirs, who is willing to use it to buy food?

"This ......" Huang Yanling was dumbfounded. With the dividends of her brother's ceramic factory, she can barely get out of poverty in China, and it is not difficult to buy something to eat. But when she went abroad, there was no foreign exchange, and she couldn't do anything no matter how rich she was.

"So, two little girls, suing me has no good results." Qin Hai proudly stretched out his hand, patted Qin Shan's head first, and was about to slap Ning Ning's head, when he finally remembered that the other party was not his own sister after all, and this kind of intimate action was inappropriate.

In embarrassment, Qin Shan covered her head and shouted: "Brother, how many times have I told you, don't shoot other people's heads, they will shoot stupid!" (To be continued......)
