Today's Chu Hongyang is no longer the old man who has never seen the world. In the past 10 years, he and his wife Schumann have been responsible for the development of Hanhua's foreign markets, and it can be said that they have been to everywhere except Antarctica, not only with a broad vision, but also with a very open mind. Because of this, he blurted out that he recommended Miss World in Venezuela to a domestic business CEO, which caused everyone's glasses to fall to the ground.

However, China in 1995 was no longer the conservative and closed state of the past, and topics such as beauty pageants, red light districts, and sexual liberation were not taboo among the people. Huang Qingyu and Gao Decai, when they were in China, they pretended to be quite dogs one by one, and they were easy not to smile, but since they went abroad and had Lin Zhenhua blocking bullets in front, they were also happy to indulge themselves, so they followed Chu Hongyang's words and said:

"Okay, okay, Xiao Chu, you have to arrange for us to see Miss World's performance."

"Hongyang, at this banquet, can you find a few Miss World to pour wine for everyone?"

"That's right, that's right, let's not make mistakes in our style of life, it's okay just to open our eyes, which can be regarded as the need to connect with the world."

Chu Hongyang didn't expect that one of his jokes would cause so much trouble, so he hurriedly slapped himself and recycled what he had just said: "Leaders, don't embarrass me, you see, my top boss is still here, in case he thinks that we are not doing our business all day long, and we are engaged in luxury and corruption here, I will be in trouble." ”

Chu Hongyang's top boss naturally refers to Lin Zhenhua, and the purpose of his words is also to let Lin Zhenhua set the tone and see if he wants to arrange some after-hours programs for these corporate CEOs. Without waiting for Lin Zhenhua to say anything, Huang Qingyu said with a smile: "Xiao Chu, you are wrong, you need to arrange a few Miss World seriously, and it is Mr. Lin." Lao Gao and I are all old men, and we don't have the heart or the strength, but Xiao Lin is strong in blood and has this need. ”

Lin Zhenhua also smiled: "Director Huang, are you taking me into the pit, do you want me to make a mistake?" ”

Huang Qingyu said disdainfully: "What mistake did you make? Now it's not as good as the past, who will care about you in terms of life style? You are different from us, you have one foot outside the system, even if you make a mistake in style, no one can control you. On the contrary, those of us who are purely in the system, we have to be careful not to let people grab the pigtails. ”

Hearing Huang Qingyu's words, Lin Zhenhua felt a pain in his heart for no reason, and somehow, he remembered He Lan with teary eyes. He smiled bitterly and said, "Director Huang, don't make fun of me, I'm a model husband." Besides, do you know that Hongyang and I are small, and my wife Yang Xin is also very familiar, he turned around and came to my house to find my wife to participate in my book, and I had to kneel on the steel plate. I think that Director Huang and Director Gao all need to open their eyes, life is short, and if you don't open your eyes, it will be too late in the future. ”

"Haha, I love to hear Xiao Lin's words, Hongyang, have you heard, Xiao Lin has already explained, you can arrange it for everyone." Gao Decai said to Chu Hongyang with a smile.

"Okay, I'll definitely satisfy the leaders." Chu Hongyang said with a smile.

said that it was to make some arrangements, but Chu Hongyang also had his own measure, and that kind of thing to drill into a small black room must not be done. Inviting a few models to accompany you for a drink is a harmless thing for everyone to have a good time. Venezuela has always had a tradition of cultivating Miss World, and there are many young girls with good looks and temperament in various modeling schools, and they often appear to participate in paid business activities, which is also people's profession, isn't it? has been rated Miss World, Chu Hongyang can't afford to invite it, and there is no need to invite it, it is not difficult to find a few prospective Miss World. …,

Huang Qingyu, Gao Decai and others unabashedly let Chu Hongyang arrange beauties, on the one hand, it is naturally hormones that are at work, and there is indeed a need to hunt for beauty, on the other hand, it is for fun, in order to bring the relationship between himself and Lin Zhenhua closer. The "four irons" passed down by later generations, carrying guns, going to the countryside and sharing the spoils, they have no chance, and the remaining one is to try anyway. Several big men get together to comment on beautiful women, even if they don't touch it, they can quickly make the relationship reach a new level.

In addition, in addition to the CEOs of various enterprises, there were also officials from the Petroleum Corporation and the Ministry of Foreign Trade. Who says government officials don't like Fengyue venues?

Buses follow the highway from the airport to Caracas, the capital of Caracas, and the tropical scenery of South America is dizzying. Chu Hongyang sat with Lin Zhenhua, and introduced to him the details of the project negotiation along the way, as well as the next business ideas. Lin Zhenhua nodded frequently and expressed satisfaction with the work of Chu Hongyang's team.

"Many countries in South America are currently in the midst of a financial crisis, and there is a very serious contradiction between the desire to revitalize their industries and the lack of capital on the other. We have been in contact with local governments and companies in Brazil, Argentina, Peru and Chile, and they are very interested in our equipment, but the biggest obstacle is lack of money. Chu Hongyang introduced.

"It doesn't matter if you're short of money, you can exchange things for it." "South America has more resources than Africa, and as long as they are willing to exchange their resources, we can barter with them," Lin said. ”

"Zhenhua, what resources do you think are more valuable?" Chu Hongyang asked.

Lin Zhenhua said: "I can't say it clearly for a while, and I'll ask Xiang Zhe to arrange someone to check it out and see the characteristics of South American resources." As far as I can remember, there are copper mines and iron mines in Peru, copper mines in Chile, timber in Brazil, and by the way, agricultural products, especially soybeans. ”

"Soybeans?" The second monk Chu Hongyang couldn't scratch his head, "Aren't we also producing soybeans in China?" Tohoku, I've heard that it's the land of soybeans. ”

Lin Zhenhua shook his head and said: "I used to think the same way, so when I was in the Northeast last year, I also specifically inquired about this matter with local officials, and the result was completely different from what I imagined." ”

As we said earlier, Lin Zhenhua was also a hot-blooded and angry young man before he crossed over, and he liked to read some "insider" articles on the Internet. He remembered that a reporter once wrote a very sensational article, called "The Death of Soybeans", which mainly meant that Northeast China is the hometown of soybeans, and a number of soybeans are exported every year, and as a result, for some reason, by the time of the 21st century, China will import soybeans, and once imported, it will be tens of millions of tons.

For this phenomenon, the reporter's explanation is, of course, the government's short-sightedness, policy mistakes, foreign conspiracies, Chinese mentally retarded, etc., in short, in a word, China's soybean industry has been crushed by foreign soybeans, and the scenery is no longer beautiful. When Lin Zhenhua saw these articles, he was also indignant, and he had to scold the street with the post.

In this life, Lin Zhenhua had the opportunity to come to the Northeast in a relatively high position and personally communicate with the local officials in charge of agriculture.

It is true that Northeast China is the land of soybeans. But before 1980, China's soybean production peaked at 12 million tonnes per year, a figure that occurred in the 50s. After entering the 60s, due to the one-sided emphasis on grain, China's soybean sowing area continued to decline, and the output in 1980 was only 7.94 million tons. After the reform and opening up, soybean planting was restored, and with technological advances, by 1993, China's soybean production had increased to 15.31 million tons, equivalent to nearly twice that of 1980. Since then, China's soybean production has not fallen below this level until the 21st century, and even reached more than 18 million tons in peak years. ..., that is, whether in terms of sown area or total output, there is no problem of the soybean industry being squeezed out by foreigners, and the reporter said it so sensationally, in fact, it is completely hearsay, plus his own brain. However, this cannot be blamed on journalists, Chinese journalists are originally liberal arts students, and it is more reliable to expect them to be able to read arithmetic than to expect them to go up trees.

If soybean production has not decreased, why has China's soybean become a net import? This answer is actually very simple, just go to the people's kitchens to see that the amount of soybean oil and soy products consumed by Chinese in a year has increased several times compared with 1980. The original 8 million tons of soybeans can still be exported, and now 18 million tons of soybeans need to be imported an additional 50 million tons.

Why is it wrong to import soybeans to improve people's lives and turn more people into fat paper?

"Do you remember the boiled fish I made for you back then?" Speaking of soybean oil, Lin Zhenhua remembered the past and asked Chu Hongyang with a smile.

"How can you not remember!" Chu Hongyang's eyes showed a luster of fascination, "Back then, eating the boiled fish you made, it was simply a delicacy that I had never eaten in my life." Zhenhua, you don't know, I have traveled to so many countries over the years, and I have eaten many state banquets, but I can't find the feeling of eating your boiled fish back then. ”

Lin Zhenhua said: "Of course, a resident only supplied half a catty of cooking oil a month, who is willing to take a pot of oil to make boiled fish?" If I hadn't earned some money and could afford black market oil, I wouldn't have dared to make boiled fish. For the sake of wasting oil, Xiaofang fought with me a lot. ”

"Time flies." Chu Hongyang said with emotion, "Zhenhua, I think all the changes started when you came back from the army. Since then, we've been eating better, we've had more money, and the world is getting bigger. I sometimes think, if it weren't for you, maybe I would still be nesting in Fenghua County now, and I wouldn't even dare to buy expensive cigarettes. ”

"Uh...... It doesn't seem to be due to me, right? This time it was Lin Zhenhua's turn to have black lines on his head. What changed the fate of countless people was the policy of reform and opening up, and this credit should be attributed to Xiaoping anyway, right? When did he Lin Zhenhua become the chief designer of reform and opening up?
