Los Angeles, Mountain View Boulevard, Roman Linda Residences Office Building, P&A Headquarters.

There was a round of applause in the conference room.

Xiao Wei, who was sitting still in the conference room, looked at the weather-covered faces and mottled hair across the conference table, and he could feel warm and cordial. Many of them have seen and are familiar with it, and they have invited themselves and their colleagues to a welcome banquet at the previous stage.

"Welcome guests from home country. Please be seated. An old man sitting on the outermost side of the group spoke.

This is an old man that Xiao Wei has never seen, but he can feel the noble status of this old man here.

Xiao Wei was seated alone on a separate side of the table. He understands this arrangement, which is a sign of respect for him and Lingyun Company. Next to him was the old man. Opposite him was Kevin Lu, who was also sitting alone.

The young man standing opposite Xiao Wei smiled and gestured to him.

Everyone sat down, except for the young man, who was still standing.

"Today I have the privilege of bridging the gap between the two companies. There are my seniors and supportive directors, as well as my colleagues and friends who have worked with me over the past year. We don't have to be restrained, because we are compatriots and relatives. Mr. Xiao, we wanderers far away from the motherland are very interested in the situation in China, please and your colleagues do not hesitate to give advice. Lu Kaiwen collided with his Lingyun colleagues one by one.

The managers of Lingyun Company felt the greetings in Lu Kevin's eyes.

Xiao Wei stood up, and he tried his best to fill his white and fat face with a confident smile.

"Dear directors and seniors, thanks to the kind invitation of your company, we have a deep understanding of the United States. Recognizing the gaps, we gained valuable lessons. We would like to give you a detailed introduction to the situation in China. Please ask questions. Xiao Wei bent down slightly.

The old man next to him stood up, his wrinkled face full of smiles.

"Mr. Xiao, there are not so many politeness, how can we have so many problems. All this is just to show that we value our friends from China. In fact, all of us are smugglers with no culture, don't look at us as dogs, in fact, we are all pretending. We can't ask any decent questions, but we are just concerned about the development of the country, so I can ask Mr. Xiao and your friends to talk about it at will. Isn't it? The old man smiled and greeted everyone around him.

A burst of laughter washed away the tension and seriousness of the room.

"Okay, let's ask a question first." The old man turned his eyes to Xiao Wei beside him.

"Sir, please." Xiao Wei sorted out his posture.

"I've always wanted to go back and see the construction of the motherland, I'm sorry, the word motherland may be a little too serious. But after all, I have been abroad for many years, and I always feel emotional when I mention China. What I want to know is is that the construction of the motherland is really as good as Kevin said? Won't your construction be affected by other reasons? You should know what I mean. The old man raised his doubts in a sigh of emotion.

Xiao Wei could feel the contradiction in the old man's tone, and he could feel the sharpness even more.

He can understand the contradiction between the old man and the people in front of him, and Hu Zhongshu has continued to tell about the special experiences of these people during the ten-day tour. Told about this particular group. They are full of ambivalent feelings about the Motherland that no one else can understand.

"Seniors, I am just an ordinary citizen of China, and I can't answer too complicated questions. I can only talk about our lives and our feelings. I am 42 years old this year, and although I have not had the same complicated experience as my predecessors here, I have experienced a difficult childhood and experienced the whole process of reform. All I can say is that I'm happy with the present and looking forward to the future. At least, I no longer worry about my life going back to the way it used to be. The construction and development of S City is amazing, and more and more foreigners are coming to S City, and S City is becoming an international city. I'm proud now. As for the other reasons you say, I can't answer them, because I'm just an ordinary citizen. But I don't think there will be any more turmoil. There doesn't seem to be much of a concern about those things in the country right now. Xiao Wei struggled to organize his answers.

I was a little glad that I was well prepared. In the face of these special people, in the face of their completely different perspectives from those in China, I made all the preparations I could.

He could feel the seriousness of these elderly people whispering to each other.

"Okay, I'll have one more question. What do you think of those of us who go to invest in our homeland? "It's still the old man who is asking.

"Welcome. What China needs is investment. In order to attract investment, China has been giving great preferential treatment to foreign investment, and even giving foreigners super-national treatment. Your investment will definitely pay off, at least in terms of policy and taxation. Xiao Wei gave the answer without thinking.

"Alas, we have all become foreigners. It's still lagging behind. If you are backward, you will have no backbone. Supra-national treatment? We really don't want to be treated like that. When will the motherland really protect its own people? The old man's face was soon covered with resentment, and the folds on his face became thicker.

The old man's explicit tone made the conference room fall silent and embarrassed all of a sudden.

"Hehe, I'm sorry. When you get older, it's easy to chatter. We should be happy to hear that the construction of the motherland is so good. Do you have any questions? The old man's abrupt relaxed voice broke the dullness of the conference room.

"Okay, everyone, Lao Xiao is not engaged in diplomacy, how can he answer these questions that even diplomats dare not answer. I see, you've been in the U.S. for a long time. It has become as simple as the Americans. I have a suggestion, since we have decided to invest, let's just invest, just take care of the project, and let time to solve the rest. Guys, is this good? Hu Zhongshu stood up and raised his loud voice.

"Okay, what the book says is good. Don't be embarrassed Mr. Shaw. He can't solve a lot of things facing the motherland. But his feelings were real. The Motherland is changing. All we have to do is make the Motherland stronger. We only talk about projects. Kevin, it's your turn, we're not nagging anymore. The old man stood up and concluded the meeting.

Everyone applauded the old man's words, and the conference room suddenly became warm and relaxed.

Kevin Lu stood up, he looked at the directors on one side, and then at the colleagues of Lingyun Company on the other side.

"In S City, in Lingyun Company, many people want to know about my life in the United States, and now you can get the answer. This is how we live, working hard and enjoying the rewards of hard work. While integrating into the United States and hoping that the United States will become stronger, on the other hand, it is concerned about the motherland and hopes that the motherland will complete the catch-up and surpassing of the United States. What is it? It's tangled. A love-hate tangle. What can I say? I can only wish that there will be no more smuggling, no more blood and tears, no more discrimination, and no more such entanglements. May the motherland be stronger. Lu Kaiwen was a little emotional, he had been listening to the concerns of the directors, and he had also been listening to the puzzlement of his colleagues in Lingyun.

The directors sighed, the employees of Lingyun Company sighed, and they applauded again at the same time.

"Okay, back to business. We have just made the decision to invest in the Chinese auto market and have completed the negotiations with Chrysler, the three major U.S. automakers. Our project is about to start. We welcome valuable comments from our friends from China, and we need such opinions. Mr. Xiao, can you tell us about this aspect? Lu Kaiwen passed on his encouraging eyes and tone to Xiao Wei who was sitting opposite at the same time.

Xiao Wei stood up again, and this time he felt a real nervousness, a kind of nervousness that only comes when facing an exam.

"Mr. Lu, I don't know if you have read the data I passed to you? Do you need me to elaborate? Xiao Wei looked at all the directors inquiringly.

"Hehe, we are very excited by the data from Mr. Xiao, which not only proves the great prospects of the Chinese market, but also proves that Kevin's decision is correct. China's auto market has entered a stage of healthy competition, and although we have missed some opportunities, we have increased our confidence. Mr. Xiao, we just want to hear from you laymen about our views on the future of China's automobile. This view is the most simple and the most realistic. The old man beside him once again dispelled Xiao Wei's nervousness.

"Well, I'll tell you about our impressions. In China, cars and houses are what everyone and every family yearns for. What I'm seeing here is that everybody is looking at cars as consumer goods. But in our country, we still treat the car as a property, as a measure of the quality of life. It is even a necessary prerequisite for every man to marry and marry a wife. So the car must go into every home, and you can imagine how many families there are in China. What a big market it is. There are now less than 100 million in the country, and a large part of them are trucks and buses. The future will be the world of cars. I don't know what about others, at least my colleagues here can buy cars, but we want to buy a better car. So, I hope you can target the mid-to-high-end sedan market. Xiao Wei looked at his colleagues.

The colleagues of Lingyun Company all nodded their heads in unison and echoed Xiao Wei's opinion.

The directors also had a lively discussion.

Lu Kaiwen's eyes turned to Cheng Mengqiu, and the old man nodded slightly.

Kevin Lu stood up, and the discussion in the conference room stopped.

"Thank you, colleagues, Lingyun, for your presence and your input that have played an important role in our investment in China. Your confidence in your homeland has allowed us wanderers to let go of the last remaining worries and worries. Thank you. We are apprehensive about investing in China, but we are also looking forward to it. We look forward to our investment contributing to the construction of our motherland. We expect our investment to bring greater confidence to the younger generation of Chinese. Colleagues of Lingyun Company, it is my honor for Kevin Lu to invite you to the United States, and it is also an honor for us wanderers here. We have you, the overseers and the participants, and you are our wealth and connections in the country. Welcome, welcome to join us in our cause. Kevin Lu clapped softly at the end.

All directors applauded.

Colleagues from Lingyun Company also applauded after gradually understanding.

In the warm applause, Xiao Wei felt in a trance, and he seemed to understand the meaning of Lu Kaiwen's words.

I didn't stand up and give an answer, I was only moved, I only felt honored and excited.

I believe that my colleagues will not refuse the hospitality of a powerful group.

Shen Fanfei finally understood the purpose of Lu Kaiwen's invitation to the middle-level managers of the entire Lingyun Company in the applause.

It's just that there are too many doubts and too many entanglements in this understanding.

She didn't want to delve into the contradictions in her heart at this moment, she just wanted to enjoy this exciting moment with everyone.
