Chapter 937: Sweeping Face in Public
Chen Geng didn't answer directly, but asked rhetorically: "Do you think the current price is very cheap?" β
"Yes," Dong Minzhu nodded: "In the case of similar quality, the price of Belas's mining vehicles is usually only about 80% of the mining car brands such as Komatsu and Caterpillar, and now Belas has given us an 80% discount, which is almost equivalent to 6.5% off the brands of Komatsu and Caterpillar, such an opportunity is too rare......"
"What if I say they can sell it for three months at most?"
"Trifold? That's impossible! Dong Minzhu was stunned for a moment, and then said categorically: "It's better to sell scrap iron directly at this price." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
"Even if they want to sell scrap iron, someone has to collect it, believe it or not, after three months, even if they use it to sell scrap iron, no one will necessarily collect it." Chen Geng knew too well the situation in those former Soviet countries, including Russia, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, many factories simply sold these brand-new manufactured industrial products as scrap - just like that, people were still unwilling to buy them.
Dong Minzhu immediately frowned.
She knew her boss very well, and knew that Chen Geng was not a person who liked to talk casually, since the boss was so sure that Belas would sell these mining cars at a three-fold price in three months, then ......
"Boss, do you know any inside information?"
Chen Geng nodded and acquiesced: "Wait patiently, in three or four months at most, we can get this batch of cars at the price of scrap iron." β
Although Belarus has become independent in August, the current situation in Belarus is not too bad, and it is not until after the collapse of the Soviet Union that Belarus understands what it means to be difficult, and when it comes, this batch of mining vehicles can be obtained for tens of thousands of dollars, although it is not very authentic, but compared to the current price of millions of dollars, a fool will buy at such a high price at this time.
Chen Geng didn't explain to Dong Minzhu why he made such a judgment, and Dong Minzhu didn't ask smartly, since the boss has a special channel, then he just listened honestly. Nodding and saying, "Okay, I'll wait for the opportunity over there first, and we'll start when the opportunity is right." β
Chen Geng was very satisfied with Dong Minzhu's cleverness, and said with a smile: "It's one thing for us to drag, but we still have to make friends if we should make friends." β
Dong Minzhu nodded: "I understand." β

Kaunda came, as the guests invited by the Zambian side, Chen Geng and Xie Minsheng naturally appeared in the welcoming team, while waiting for the plane to land, the old man Xie touched Chen Geng lightly, and said in a low voice: "Have you seen it, the ambition of the Nonferrous Metals Industry Corporation is not small." β
Chen Geng nodded: "Yes, it's not small." β
Under normal circumstances, the Nonferrous Metals Industry Corporation is not qualified to appear on this occasion, but Ye Yun just appeared, and this matter became fun here.
As if sensing the gaze of Chen Geng and Xie Minsheng looking at him, Ye Yun turned his head, without superficial politeness and greetings, but glanced at Chen Geng with a smile.
Seeing Ye Yun's appearance, Chen Geng only pouted: "Yes, people don't look down on us." β
Old Man Xie smiled and said disapprerovingly: "It's normal to look down on us, but I've heard that people are very busy these days, so they are ready to snatch the cooperation qualifications of the two copper mines from us." β
"Hehe......"
Chen Geng directly sneered at the little conspiracy of the Nonferrous Metals Industry Corporation, and of course he had heard about the methods of the Nonferrous Metals Industry Corporation: "I heard that the Nonferrous Metals Corporation was very active during this period, not only inviting the comrades of the Zambian Embassy to dinner all day long, but also liaising with various ministries and commissions of the Central Committee, as if he was determined to win. β
"Can you understand, can such a big piece of fat not be tempted......
Don't look at the non-ferrous metals industry corporation jumping up and down during this period of time, but Chen Geng and Xie Minsheng are extremely calm, the reason is very simple, the non-ferrous metals industry corporation has lost the first hand, as for making up for it later or asking some ministries and commissions to help them speak-you are stupid for others?
The two were chatting, Chen Geng's eyes were sharp, and he suddenly saw a black big red flag sedan slowly driving from not far away, and when he saw the license plate of the big red flag, Chen Geng's eyes suddenly narrowed: Isn't it?
After all, Kaunda is not only the head of state of a country, but also has a very good relationship with the Republic and has always supported the decision of the Republic in major international affairs.
Chen Geng was very surprised, but he didn't know that the other comrades present were also shocked!
Since stepping down from his leadership position, although the chief designer occasionally participates in the decision-making of major national strategies, he basically does not come out of this kind of foreign affairs activities, and before that, everyone has not received a notice that his old man is coming to the airport, but at this time, his old man actually came in person. This shock is really indescribable.
Through this big red flag of the old man's house, everyone silently raised the importance of Kaunda's visit by several levels: although the old man didn't say anything, this in itself was a very clear signal.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
The big red flag car had just stopped for a minute, and a black shadow appeared in the sky not far away, seeing that this quickly changed from a black shadow to a clearly recognizable plane, Chen Geng secretly took a breath: It's coming.
This is a smooth and dynamic appearance, and ordinary civil airliners are completely different from the aircraft, yes, the plane that Kaunda took is the Gulfstream II-SP sent by Runhua Industry, the Gulfstream II series of extended range models, the maximum range can reach 4700 kilometers, but considering the distance from Zambia to the capital and the number of passengers, the plane carried out a transfer refueling in the middle.
Kaunda had obviously been informed by the airport, and knew that the old man had personally arrived at the airport to greet him, and as soon as the plane stopped, he quickly got off the plane and talked to the old man with an honorable face.
At the level of Chen Geng and Xie Minsheng, if it weren't for the invitation sent by the Zambian side, they would not have been qualified to participate in this welcoming event, but even if they had this qualification now, they could only be at the back of the line, and they couldn't hear what Kaunda and the bigwigs in front of them said - even Ye Yun's bastard was higher than Chen Geng's position.
But the next moment, a scene that stunned everyone happened:
After shaking hands with the senior leaders of the Republic government one by one, Kaunda left the next 10 or so people, especially Ye Yun, who had already stretched out his hand with a smile on his face and was about to shake hands with him, came directly to the end of the welcome procession, and gave Chen Geng a hug under the stunned gaze of everyone!
What's the situation?
Seeing Kaunda's "unruly" action, the leading comrade who had just stretched out his hand to shake hands with Kaunda looked embarrassed, and the others were collectively dumbfounded.
As for Ye Yun, looking at Kaunda, who was enthusiastically hugging Chen Geng, his face suddenly became ugly.
Shame on me and throw it at my grandmother's house!
As long as you are not a fool, you can see that Kaunda's handshake with everyone is just etiquette, but this hug with Chen Geng and Xie Minsheng is a true expression of love between friends, and the difference is so big that you can see it at a glance.
Only the chief designer looked at Chen Geng, Xie Minsheng and Kaunda with great interest, and seemed not to be surprised by the scene in front of him.
After hugging Chen Geng and Xie Minsheng separately, Kaunda smiled happily: "Chen, Xie, we meet again." β
"Yes," Chen Geng nodded with a smile, he didn't dare to talk nonsense at this time, and said respectfully: "Mr. President, your spirit looks much better than some time ago. β
Kaunda laughed happily, and even winked at Chen Geng without even winking at all: "Of course, of course, as for the reason, Chen, you know." β
Chen Geng smiled bitterly: Of course I know, but brother, why do I think you are digging a hole for me?
Looking at Chen Geng's helpless wry smile, Kaunda smiled even more happily, under the gaze of dozens or hundreds of pairs of eyes, Kaunda sent an invitation to Chen Geng and Xie Minsheng: "Chen, Xie, I specially asked people to give me a staggered time at three and four o'clock this afternoon, there are some things I want to talk to you about, do you have time?" β
Of course, Chen Geng and Xie Minsheng have time, but at this moment, it is not up to them to decide whether they have time or not, and the two of them looked at the person standing next to Comrade Zhenguo at the same time.
The one next to Comrade Zhenguo was smart, and nodded with a smile: "If you have time, of course you can go over." β
Saying this, this person muttered to himself in his heart: It seems that Chen Geng and Xie Minsheng's influence on Zambia is much deeper than he imagined......
Then no problem.
After receiving permission, Chen Geng and Xie Minsheng breathed a sigh of relief, and nodded to Kaunda: "Of course it's no problem, it's our honor." β
"Then it's settled." Kaunda nodded again and again, and it was only at this time that he seemed to notice Ye Yun, who had just been ignored by him, and returned to Ye Yun again with an apologetic face, and politely explained two sentences.
The accompanying interpreter said to Ye Yun expressionlessly: "Mr. President is very sorry for the rudeness just now, he didn't mean it, he just saw his old friend and couldn't help himself for a while, please forgive me." β
"Of course, of course, I can completely understand ......" Ye Yun squeezed out a smile vividly, and his face was simply unreadable.
By the time Ye Yun Kaunda shook hands with the next one, Ye Yun's face was already ugly and he couldn't see anyone.
