Zhan Qin really lived up to his expectations, not only successfully communicated with the representatives of the two companies, but also got the other party's room number in the hotel.

Meng Jinxing nodded approvingly at Zhan Qin, and then waved to everyone: "Let's go, I'll invite everyone to dinner!" After eating, we will meet the representatives of the two companies separately in the evening. ”

Before leaving, Xu Tao did not forget to leave all the cigarettes he brought to the security guards of the convention and exhibition center, and made several security guards happy as if they had met brothers who had not seen each other for a long time, and enthusiastically helped them pack up the tables and chairs and move them back to the car together.

On the way to the hotel, Meng Jinxing received a strange call, picked it up and listened to Xu Heng's greetings.

"I'm fine, thank you for your concern!" Meng Jinxing greeted heartily, "How are you doing?" ”

"TOEFL TOEFL, everything is fine! I learned that Brother Meng had returned to Guangyun safely and wanted to go to Yixu, but it was inconvenient for me to know the way? Xu Heng said.

"Haha, Xu Shao wants to come to Guangyun, I can't welcome it, where will it be inconvenient?" Meng Jinxing said, "I don't know if there are any specific plans for the trip?" ”

"I want to come over tomorrow, do you see how convenient it is?"

"Tomorrow?"

Meng Jinxing thought for a while, Xu Heng would not come to Guangyun for no reason, the biggest possibility was to change the old one, he was worried that he could not negotiate the conditions with Kunpeng's company, and it was still unknown whether he could go to the auction and hanging, if Xu Heng could intervene, it would undoubtedly be good for Guangyun.

"Yes!" In just a few seconds, he replied to Xu Heng affirmatively, "I am waiting for you tomorrow." ”

"It's a deal!"

Xu Heng hung up the phone, Meng Jinxing immediately asked Zhan Qin to call to arrange the relevant reception staff, whether Xu Heng was changed from the old or not, since he came, he had to find a way to let Xu Heng contribute to Guangyun.

Zhan Qin used the meal time to briefly introduce the contact with the representatives of the two companies to several leaders, according to her, the representative of Anzu Company is fluent in Chinese, and the representative of Netafim only brought an English translator for some reason, and the communication may be difficult.

At the end of the meal, Meng Jinxing divided the division of labor according to Zhan Qin's feedback, he took Lu Zhangsheng and Xu Tao to meet the representatives of Anzu Company, and Song Shilin took Zhan Qin and Chen Fang to meet Netafim's people.

Founded in 1974, Anzu has been engaged in flower breeding and seedling production and is headquartered in Bresco. What started as a small company run by founder Nicvanderknaap with his wife has grown over 20 years into a large-scale flower seedling cultivation company with 13.6 hectares of greenhouses in the Netherlands.

Xu Tao handed Meng Jinxing the detailed information and product catalog he had collected and prepared about Anzu in the car, and added: "...... The company's strength is the variety of cut flowers, with more than 100 varieties accounting for 85% of the market share in the Netherlands, and 30% of the market share of the 'tropical' alone! ”

Meng Jinxing nodded and listened to Xu Tao's introduction, and in fact, what Xu Tao said, he had already made a detailed understanding of what he said when he decided to take over Anzu's project from Rongping.

Dujiang International Hotel was brightly lit at this time, Pan Ping parked the car smoothly in front of the revolving door, Xu Tao got out of the car first to open the door for Meng Jinxing and Lu Zhangsheng, and waited for the two leaders to follow into the lobby after the car, and Pan Ping went to park.

Meng Jinxing took Lu and Xu to knock on the door of 2006 and met Anzu's business representative, Mauricesoapbarrel.

Meng Jinxing looked at the business card, the corners of his mouth hooked up, and the corner of his eyes just swept to Xu Tao with a bad smile, only Lu Zhangsheng stretched his face with a serious face.

Maurice was very talkative and gave a detailed account of Anzu's seedling varieties and planting techniques," ...... Take a look at our technical manual! On it, we have detailed the various requirements required for Anthurium, and see if you are suitable for working with us. ”

Meng Jinxing didn't expect the other party to be so refreshing and direct, and immediately flipped through it.

This technical manual is quite thick, almost similar to the thickness of a dictionary, from climate, soil to planting techniques, the only regret is that the English version is all in English, and I can't understand many of the technical terms without any English skills.

In addition, Meng Jinxing noticed that this technical manual not only has a price tag, but also as high as nearly 100 dollars.

He asked, puzzled, "Did you bring this brochure to the fair to sell?" ”

Maurice smiled and nodded, "We want our partners to read this manual carefully before making a planting decision to make sure they can really do it meticulously!" IMHO, since we entered your country in '94, we have encountered countless blindly chosen places and enterprises, resulting in Anzu's reputation not being well established. So, in such a way, we want to choose a discreet, respectful partner. ”

Maurice's words, like a small awl, penetrated into the hearts of Meng Jinxing and the three of them, and Lu Zhangsheng was first displeased: "According to Mr. Maurice's meaning, you have not met a good collaborator in the six years you have been in China?" ”

The three of them expected Maurice to deny it out of politeness, but he shrugged and replied, "Strictly speaking, it is. ”

Lu Zhangsheng's face darkened suddenly, and Xu Tao's face turned even redder and was about to argue, but Meng Jinxing immediately stopped him with his eyes, and said to Maurice with Yan Yue: "We don't have US dollars on us, can we pay in RMB?" ”

Maurice smiled, "No problem. ”

Meng Jinxing nodded at Xu Tao and motioned for him to pay, Xu Tao's boss took out the wallet from his bag unhappily, and paid the cash to Maurice, Maurice took the money and got up to take the bill that had been opened a long time ago and handed it to Xu Tao, and said: "You must feel that it is wise to make this decision, because the wrong decision will only make the loss of the place that is not suitable for growing our products greater!" ”

"We will definitely read this manual carefully when we go back, and compare it with our actual situation before making a decision." Meng Jinxing said, "However, now I have another question I want to ask. ”

"Please." Maurice stretched out her hand to plead.

"I would like to know, if all the local conditions can be met, what form will your company cooperate?"

"As long as your situation is completely consistent with the manual, we will provide a batch of seedlings worth 200,000 US dollars to poor areas free of charge in accordance with the agreement signed with your provincial investment promotion office." Maurice said.

Meng Jinxing shook his head, "I forgot to tell you that our Guangyun is not a poor county, and providing seedlings for free is not the way we want to cooperate." ”

Lu Zhangsheng frowned on the side, nearly two million seedlings, don't be in vain! Isn't it just a poor county, why don't you just find a way to fool around? What can foreigners know!

Meng Jinxing didn't pay attention to Lu Zhangsheng's reaction at all, but waited intently for Maurice, who was a little stunned, to speak.

"Mr. Meng, this is not in line with our jīng god who participated in this investment promotion, and we will not provide seedlings to cities other than poor counties for free."

Meng Jinxing smiled and said, "Mr. Maurice, I didn't ask your company to provide seedlings free of charge. We came to visit today in the hope that your company can set up a branch in Guangyun, establish a seedling laboratory, and develop high-end new varieties of cut flowers suitable for the Chinese market! ”

Maurice's eyes widened in surprise, "You surprised me! ”

Meng Jinxing took out the materials that had been prepared long ago from his bag, "According to the creed of our countrymen, come and not be rude." This is some of our Guangyun data, Mr. Maurice can take it back and study it carefully to see if it is suitable for the orchid varieties you brought this time to settle down! Of course, in order to show our sincerity, I do not charge you any fees for these materials, just to make a sincere friend. ”

Maurice took the material suspiciously, and after only a few pages, his gray-blue eyes lit up, but he restrained his emotions well, closed the material and said to Meng Jinxing: "I will fax this material back to the head office to ask the technical staff to discuss it, and also ask Mr. Meng to bring the manual back, and ask the professionals to read it carefully and make the right decision." ”

At this point, the first contact between the two sides was over, and the three of them did not stay long, said goodbye, and met Song Shilin and them in the lobby downstairs.

Compared with Meng Jinxing and them, Song Shilin's luck was better than that of Meng Jinxing, and the representative of Netafim felt very cordial because of Zhan Qin's beautiful Hebrew language, and immediately agreed to go to Guangyun for a field trip after the exhibition.

"This company is so stingy that it still charges money for a manual?" Song Shilin took the manual in Xu Tao's hand in disbelief and flipped through it, "Damn, it's all tadpoles!" ”

"Mayor Song, that's what foreigners do." Zhan Qin said with a smile, "Two years ago, I participated in a business promotion conference in Shanghai with the city's investment promotion group, and eight out of ten of these foreign companies had to pay us to give the investment brochure. In their eyes, this kind of thing is a matter of course! ”

"Cultural differences, cultural differences." Song Shilin sighed.

"I think it's a difference in perception." Meng Jinxing said, "This maurice has taught us a lesson!" Think about it, after spending so much money on this booklet, is it reasonable for you not to go back and study it carefully? If you think it makes sense, then there is a problem with your attitude! ”

Xu Tao stuck out his tongue at Chen Fang and muttered quietly, "The Dutch are weird!" You see, even choosing a name is a soap box, what good can it do? ”

Although his voice was small, it was still heard by Meng Jinxing and them, Zhan Qin immediately glanced at Meng Jinxing, turned his head and glared at Xu Tao again: "You are still a merchant attribution, and you don't even know the allusion of the Dutch name!" ”

"Hey, are there any Dutch names?" Lu Zhangsheng only came back to his senses at this time, and remembered Meng Jinxing's expression when they saw Maurice's business card, "Come and listen." ”

While talking, the group got into the car, "In fact, the Dutch have a simple name, when the French occupied the Netherlands, in order to collect taxes and count the register, the Dutch in order to vent their dissatisfaction, many people used fake surnames when registering their names, and they were still used after the French retreated, which is why there are many surnames that seem strange to us......"

Zhan Qin told the name allusion of the Dutchman, but Meng Jinxing received an uninvited call at this moment.
