Volume 13 Chapter 24 Fame and fortune
After talking about the second loan provided by Beishan Bank to the Central Bank of Tianjin, the senior officials of the Central Bank of Tianjin are quite familiar with each other this time, and they will give a generous gift without waiting for Boss Zhao to reach out, a Bombardier Aerospace Company's latest "Challenger 605" wide-body business jet, as well as the entire crew, is also the world's most advanced private business jet.

Early the next morning, at the southern border airbase in Zimbabwe.
Officials of the central bank of Tianjin vigorously introduced to Boss Zhao that this world's most advanced private jet, originally the Tianjin government spent 38 million US dollars to purchase a special plane for Mr. President, and it was just delivered a month ago.
Zhao Daxi saw that Hunting Xinxi was not pretentious, and accepted this generous gift from the official of Jinguo. He followed a group of high-ranking black officials to the office of the commander of the base to sign a few documents, and at the same time received the plane, he became the chief national policy adviser of the presidential office of Zimbabwe, and enjoyed the treatment of a diplomat at the level of the Zimbabwean government.
Lei Yongqiang also saw a blank face, and secretly asked: "What do you mean, the treatment of a first-class diplomat?" ”
Zhao Daxi replied in a low voice with a smile on his face: "It is equivalent to the diplomatic immunity of the Zimbabwean government, understand?" ”
When Lei Yongqiang heard the words of diplomatic immunity, he unconsciously shuddered and felt even more empty, and he was relieved when he thought about it again, Beishan Bank seemed to have become the largest creditor of the Central Bank of Tianjin, and it was reasonable for the Tianjin government to give Boss Zhao this special treatment.
The two of them muttered quietly for a while, and the commander of the base also came over to offer his courtesy: "Mr. Zhao, you can rest assured that the plane is parked at the base, the Zimbabwe Air Force is ready to serve you at any time."
Zhao Daxi said a few words with satisfaction, and without spending a penny, he had the first real private jet in his life, a "Challenger 605" private business aircraft belonging to the Tianjin Air Force, which was also the most advanced and expensive private jet in this era. Three days later, the $5 billion loan provided by Beishan International Investment Bank to the central bank of Tianjin was received in batches, and Zhao Lei and Zhao Lei were also invited to visit the presidential palace of Tianjin.
In the morning, the southern African city of Harera, the world's largest tobacco distribution market, the presidential palace.
Zhao Daxi got out of the car and took a breath of fresh air and whispered: "Lao Lei, it's much more comfortable here than Johannesburg, the air is really good." ”
Lei Yongqiang got out of the car and laughed softly: "Plateau city, the climate is pleasant, flowers bloom all year round, a bit like Kunming." ”
The two of them only had time to talk about the local weather, and the gate of the presidential palace was opened, and the soldiers of the guard walked with goose steps and greeted the two bigwigs of the Beishan International Investment Bank into the presidential palace with the etiquette of state guests. Zhao Lei and the others didn't dare to slack off, and exchanged a few words with the high-ranking officials of Tianjin around them, and at the same time they felt extremely excited when they looked at each other.
It is indeed refreshing to come to an African country to be a creditor, and it is even more refreshing to enjoy diplomatic immunity. If Zhao Daxi wants, he can go to the street to kill people for fun at any time, and he definitely doesn't need to pay any legal responsibility afterwards, and the feeling of being outside the law is really exciting, of course, the premise is that he must first have the ability to be a big creditor.
At noon, the State Guest Banquet Hall.
There were only three tables of people in the banquet hall, although the scene was a little deserted, the atmosphere was quite harmonious, and under the recommendation of Mr. President, Zhao Lei and the two met with the Minister of Agriculture of Tianjin, the chairman of the African Union Food Reserve Committee, and also vigorously promoted high-quality corn produced in Africa.
Zhao Lei and the two also knew how to give Mr. President a little face, and promised to purchase 500,000 tons of high-quality corn from the African Union Food Reserve Committee at a market price of 60 million US dollars. It is a little less, but it has already made Mr. President and Mr. President very satisfied, especially Mr. Chairman of the African Union Food Reserve Committee, a senior Zambian government official danced happily and praised Boss Zhao's generosity.
After a meal, stay in a luxurious suite in the presidential palace.
Lao Lei scratched his hair again and was worried: "It is not a problem to sell 500,000 tons of corn, but how to transport it out of the mountainous areas of Zambia and Zimbabwe, alas, this is the crux of Africans' poverty, which is limited by transportation and sales when there are abundant resources." ”
Zhao Daxi also grabbed his hair, but he was very happy: "Count as much as you can transport, and distribute the rest to the poor who can't eat on the spot." ”
Lei Yongqiang heard the grin again: "Mr. Zhao, this is a conscience discovery, hehe, is this called wool out of the sheep?" ”
Zhao Daxi laughed perfunctorily, but he didn't bother to deny it, he and Li Zhongshu teamed up to resell high-quality tobacco from Tianjin, and earned more than a billion dollars in just half a year. The two of them muttered for a while and went back to Johannesburg, discussing the coaxing of good deeds that of course should be done. I asked Zhu Yu to estimate the existing capacity of Beishan Group, and it would be good if 500,000 tons of corn could be shipped out of 50,000 tons.
After discussing it, several people simply contacted the United Nations World Food Programme directly, and the entire batch of 500,000 tons of corn was donated. It was the first time in history that officials of the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) received such a large amount of food and supplies worth 60 million US dollars, enough for hundreds of thousands of poor Africans to eat for a year.
So much so that the officer was very skeptical and cautiously asked: "Sir, can you leave your contact information?" ”
Of course, Zhao Daxi did not pretentiously leave the contact information of the public relations department of Beishan International Investment Bank, and then sat back and waited for fame and fortune. Sure enough, a few days later, the New York Times, which has always had a keen sense of smell, took the lead in exposing the feat of Beishan International Investment Bank, praising the newly established international investment bank with an all-Chinese background and headquartered in Johannesburg, South Africa, as a model for Chinese business circles.
The words of the New York Times were quickly reprinted by several major online media in South Africa, and the newly established Beishan International Investment Bank truly became well-known in Africa. Speaker Lien Mbet was also deeply moved, and specially summoned Lei Yongqiang, President of Beishan Bank, to express his admiration for Beishan Bank's kindness on behalf of the poor people of all Africa. Amid the praise of the large and small media in Africa, Beishan International Investment Bank received the expected flowers and applause.
Compared with the praise of the African media, of course, there is no half-word report in the country, and it is still the expected calm.
Yang Su had another high opinion on this: "Boss Zhao this time, it can be regarded as a lesson to your old chief, hehe, your old chief can't buy praise for tens of billions of yuan, but you bought it for 60 million US dollars, alas, people are really incomparable." ”
Zhao Daxi still smiled and took it easily, unwilling to slander Su He, but the people around him inevitably wanted to talk about it.
Ji Lin also analyzed it seriously with gusto: "I think this is still an ideological issue, do good deeds or cooperate with the international community, if it is recognized by the international community, of course, it will be recognized by the African people, I think Vice Premier Su should really learn from you, good deeds are not what he does." ”
Lei Yongqiang also smiled sincerely when he heard it: "Linlin has grown up and analyzed well, it is indeed a matter of ideology." ”
Yang Su had a vicious argument at this time: "Why hasn't such a face-revealing thing been reported in China, who suppressed it, wouldn't it be your old chief again?" ”
Lei Yongqiang was unhappy when he heard her vicious argument: "Don't talk nonsense about this matter, the old chief shouldn't be that kind of person." ”
Zhao Daxi knew that most of this matter was forcibly suppressed by Su and the people around him. If you go back to Su He ten years ago, there may still be people who tolerate Yaliang, and it will be extremely difficult to make today's Vice Premier Su admit his mistakes, and Vice Premier Su is no longer the Secretary Su of the year. Later, he received a call from Vice Premier Jia, who made no secret of his appreciation for Boss Zhao and gave a very high evaluation of Beishan Group's charity feats.
Vice Premier Jia then received a call from Wu Jiafeng, and Lao Wu's interest was also quite high: "It's still yours who know how to be a man, much better than your old chief who doesn't know each other, virtuous nephew, I wish you Beishan Bank better and better, and the road in Africa will be smoother and smoother." ”
Lao Wu's words are so sincere, it can be seen that Lao Wu is not a heinous villain. After a period of excitement, Zhao Lei and the two of them had the intention of acting a full set, and pushed everything around them for several days in a row, personally accompanied the officials of the United Nations Food Programme, and performed a good show of big philanthropists. In front of more than 20 mainstream media reporters around the world, he opened a warehouse and released grain. With 500,000 tons of corn, truckloads were transported to various poor tribal villages in central and southern Africa, which also made Beishan International Investment Bank shine in the mainstream media around the world.
That night, in the central African country of Zambia, in a remote village in the heat and poverty. Surrounded by the strict security of the Zambian Army, guarding the grain convoy printed with the logo of the United Nations World Food Programme, Zhao Lei and Ji Lin Xiaofeng were lying on comfortable recliners, chatting without a word.
After chatting for a while, Ji Lin couldn't help but get excited again: "I talked to Ms. Sensi, and Ms. Sensi said that she would like to nominate you as a candidate for this year's United Nations Charity Business Person of the Year, and thank you for everything you have done for the poor in Africa." ”
Lei Yongqiang couldn't help laughing at this time: "Haven't you already won one of the United Nations' charity awards, let me receive them this time." ”
Zhao Daxi naturally grinned when he heard this: "Okay, I have no opinion." ”
Ji Lin showed a surprised expression: "No, why don't you know when you won the charity award issued by the United Nations, what about the trophy?" ”
Zhao Daxi was suddenly stunned when she asked, and thought seriously for a while before remembering: "The trophy seems to be still in Zhaojia Village, I remember that it seems to be made of crystal...... No, I'm going to have to call and ask, don't let anyone lose me. ”
