Chapter 815: Temptation

Looking at the Boeing 737 slowly descending in the sky, the director of the presidential office, Olaciao Larretta, was a little envious, as the representative of President Menem, Olaciao Larreta has seen many bosses of large enterprises, and the vice president of the world-famous agricultural company Monsanto came to Argentina some time ago, and he accompanied him, but even the vice president of Monsanto is just a Gulfstream plane, and a large aircraft like Boeing 737 is used as the company's business jet. Olaciao Larreta hasn't seen any of them. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

Although His Excellency the President attaches great importance to this cooperation, in any case, Runhua Industrial is only a company, and it is not enough to let His Excellency the President personally come to the airport to greet him -- to let his own office director come to the airport to pick him up has fully demonstrated the importance that His Excellency attaches to this person.

Also surprised by the Boeing 737 that was about to land, in addition to Olacio Larreta, the chief of staff of the president, there was also the youngest son of His Excellency the President and the main body of the cooperation with Runhua Industrial: Carlos Rafael Menem, chairman of Diesel Avellaneda S.A.

"His Royal Highness the Prince" asked Olasiao Larreta with some curiosity: "Larretta, I heard that this plane is their own?" ”

"I heard that's the case," Olasiao Larreta nodded, "but it's also possible to rent it." ”

"It must be rented," Carlos Rafael Menem was relieved immediately: "This is a Boeing 737, except for some heads of state, who can use such a large plane as their own private jet?" Even those big enterprises and big conglomerates in Europe and the United States are reluctant, let alone a company from China? ”

In fact, Olaciao Larreta also thinks so in his heart, as President Menem's chief of staff, although he does not know much about the situation in China, but in order to cope with this inspection of Runhua Industry, he has also made up some relevant information about China during this time, knowing that although this is a country with a huge land area and a large population, the economic level is very average, especially the per capita income is even less pitiful, in the more than 100 years before World War II, This country has been in a strange state of war with the European and American powers, and the overall level is not even comparable to that of European countries, even compared with Argentina.

But strangely, this country has a fairly complete range of industries, but their overall industrial level is relatively backward, although the Chinese have been working hard to develop the economy and industry over the years, Olacio Larreta feels that the Chinese have chosen an unwise path of development, they have not found their own country and nation in the world civilization system, they should learn from Argentina, become a country dominated by agriculture and animal husbandry - look at Argentina now, By exporting various agricultural products and agricultural and animal husbandry products to the international market, how happy is everyone's life? Looking at this development path chosen by the Chinese, it is really hell, how can they compete with the Americans, Europeans and Japanese? But fortunately, they did not choose agriculture and animal husbandry, otherwise if a country with a population of more than 1.1 billion people, all its citizens are engaged in agriculture and animal husbandry, will Argentina still have a foothold in the world......

Not to mention how Argentines are worried about the development path chosen by the Chinese, the Boeing 737 carrying Chen Geng and others finally slowly stopped at the end of the runway.

Well, there is no red carpet.

Chen Geng was the first to walk out of the cabin, followed by Ding Ruoyan, and then ...... Well, it's Sarmiento, Counsellor of the Argentine Embassy in Beijing, nephew of His Excellency the President, cousin of Carlos Rafael Menem.

Although Sarmiento's appearance is a bit strange, it is completely understandable that when neither party knows each other, there must always be someone who is familiar to both parties to introduce each other: "Mr. Chen, let me introduce to you, this is the most trusted person of His Excellency the President, Mr. Olasiao Larretta, the director of the Office of the President, Mr. Larretta, this is Mr. Chen Geng, the most outstanding young entrepreneur in China, Mr. Chen Geng of Runhua Industrial, and his fiancΓ©e, Ms. Ding......"

…………………………

Not to mention the exchange of pleasantries between the two sides at the airport, after the greetings, Chen Geng, Ding Ruoyan, Sarmiento, Olacio Larreta and Carlos Rafael Menem got into the same car, an extended Mercedes-Benz S-Class with three rows of seats.

As the "Royal Highness of the Prince" of Argentina, Carlos Rafael Menem bluntly asked Chen Geng: "Mr. Chen, with all due respect, is your company really the largest automobile manufacturing enterprise in China?" How strong are you? ”

Carlos Rafael Menem's suspicion of Runhua Industry in his words is simply without any concealment, according to the habits of Chinese, at this time should be humble a few words, at least Ding Ruoyan thinks so, her body does not move, next to Chen Geng's hand but gently touched Chen Geng twice, which means to remind Chen Geng to be as polite as possible when speaking, not to make the atmosphere too stiff as soon as they meet.

But Chen Geng was unmoved.

He knows very well that now is not the time to be polite, foreigners don't know what modesty is, their habit is "okay is good, no is not good," especially for South Americans, who have always been known for their passion and unrestrainedness, what is modesty, can you eat it? He said in a deep voice: "What about the strength of Runhua Industry, I think Mr. Larreta should have more say, right?" ”

Olasiao Larreta didn't expect Chen Geng to burn the war on himself, and he was a little stunned for a while.

Chen Geng didn't expect Olacio Lareta to answer his own questions, or Chen Geng didn't intend to let Larreta answer his own questions, without waiting for Larreta to speak, Chen Geng looked at Carlos Rafael Menem and continued: "Although Argentina's voice in the international community is not very strong, but after all, it is not comparable to those countries in Africa that have no sense of presence and influence in the international community at all, I think the Argentine government is choosing Runhua Industry as Argentina' Before the partners of the 'Revitalization of the National Automobile Industry' plan, we must have made a detailed investigation of our Runhua Industry through various channels, you can not believe the information we provide, but do you not believe your own investigation report? ”

When Chen Geng just said that Argentina's voice in the international community is not very strong, Carlos Rafael Menem and Olaciao Larreta were still a little annoyed, but when they heard the back, the two were immediately embarrassed.

As Chen Geng said, don't care what is going on with the Menem government's plan to "revitalize the national automobile industry", and how to sell dog meat on the head of a sheep, but since this plan and slogan have been shouted, at least the surface work is to be done, at least to have a detailed understanding of the strength of the selected partner, know what products the other party has, what the overall technical strength is, so as to fool the people, since you have already investigated, and now come to tell me this kind of thing, Didn't you slap yourself in the mouth?

Alas......

Ding Ruoyan sighed in his heart: Chen Geng is still not suitable for diplomatic work, his personality is too impulsive, how can you be so talkative?

She just opened her mouth to help Chen Gengyuan, Carlos Rafael Menem suddenly laughed and slapped her face lightly: "Mr. Chen, you are really different. ”

"Huh?"

"I studied in France, lived in Europe for many years, and came into contact with those Chinese in Europe," Carlos Rafael Menem said calmly, looking at Chen Geng, "You are completely different from them, you are more confident than your compatriots, more like us Argentines, and now I start to think that you may be a good partner." ”

What, it's just a temptation? Hearing Carlos Rafael Menem's words, Ding Ruoyan, who was angry just now, was instantly stunned.

Chen Geng, who was not surprised by Carlos Rafael Menem's temptation, suddenly changed a smile on his face: "Oh, I'm sorry, my reaction was a little excited just now, and I ask you to understand, Runhua Industry is like my child, and I am proud of my child, so ...... Well, it's like you love Diego Maradona so much that you can't accept that people say bad things about Diego. ”

Someone told Chen Geng that chatting with South Americans, football is the best topic to bring the two sides closer, and sure enough, listening to Chen Geng talk about football and the pride of the Argentines Maradona, Carlos Rafael Menem suddenly became excited, nodded again and again: "That's right, Diego is the pride of Argentina, and no one can say bad things about Diego...... Chen, do you also have football? Well, of course you have ......."

Speaking of the latter, Carlos Rafael Menem was a little embarrassed: China is a big country with a population of 1.1 billion, how can there be no football?

Chen Geng, however, nodded calmly and admitted: "Of course there is football in our country, but the level of football in our country is not developed, if possible, I hope to promote exchanges between China and Argentina in football - by the way, Diego is now in Argentina, right?" Can I visit him? ”

Diego Maradona was found to smoke coca @ after the match against Bari in Serie A Napoli on March 17, and was recently banned by the Italian Football Federation for 15 months, if Maradona was a Chinese, he would have been scolded for a long time, but South Americans are different, crazy Argentines support Maradona clearly, scold the Italian Football Association, Chen Geng said to visit Diego Maradona. It is also an idea that has just emerged: can Maradona be used to push this cooperation forward?
