Pierce saw the superb performance of the ballet dancers, and he said to Lin Qiangsheng in surprise: "Lin, I actually saw a wonderful classical ballet performance in the far east!" ”

The atmosphere of the live performance was very good, and Lin Qiangsheng specially arranged some people to set off, these people have been rehearsed in advance to know when to applaud and when to applaud.

Lin Qiangsheng said proudly: "Of course, these ballet dancers are all from the Russian ballet school, which is a group of masters from the oldest ballet theater in Europe!" ”

Pierce said in surprise: "Are you saying that these ballet dancers are apprentices taught by the masters of the Kirov Ballet, the Mariinsky Ballet, the Kyiv Bolshoi Ballet, the three major ballet companies in the world?" ”

Lin Qiangsheng was stunned for a moment, and thought to himself: "These ballet troupes seem to be very powerful when they hear their names, and looking at Pierce's expression, they seem to know a lot about this aspect." It's better not to talk nonsense! ”

So Lin Qiangsheng said: "Well, I mean the ballet in Ben Thanh originated from the Russian genre, and there were many artists from St. Petersburg in Ben Thanh before World War I, and they spread Western art to the people of Ben Thanh and cultivated a lot of excellent talents locally!" But unfortunately, with the deterioration of Sino-Soviet relations, this cultural exchange activity also came to a standstill! ”

Pierce then understood, and said with regret: "God, that's a shame!" As you know, the National Ballet Theatre of Russia has been performing in dozens of countries and regions and has been very popular! The Soviets preserved an important heritage of ballet history, untouched by modernism, and after many performances, the excited audience did not let the Russian ballet performers leave the stage, repeatedly asking them to perform additional programs! The Soviets brought wonderful and gorgeous orthodox ballet to the West, and only the performers trained by the excellent Russian schools could be so welcome! ”

Looking at Pierce's excited expression, Lin Qiangsheng also smiled, but he didn't expect that he wanted to show off but knew better than him. So he also said playfully: "I hope that the Soviets can let their ballet troupe perform in China, so that the ballet dancers of the two countries have the opportunity to communicate!" ”

The whole performance was very successful, and Dongxing Company spent more than 300,000 yuan for the party, not only paid remuneration and bonuses for the employees and actors of the art school who participated in the show, but also rented lighting and sound from the provincial song and dance drama, and also rented video equipment from CCTV TV station in the capital to record the whole party. This will be preserved as the history of the development of Dongxing Company!

The vice secretary of the provincial party committee and vice mayor Miyamoto Yan and other leading cadres have already left the venue after watching the half-hour program, and they have other important work.

An hour and a half later, when the party was about to end, Tian Jianpeng, deputy director of the administration department of the organizer of the party, walked up to Lin Qiangsheng and sat down next to him and said: "President Lin, the effect of today's party is very good, and the audience is very enthusiastic!" We think that we can add an extra performance tomorrow so that the rest of the staff will also have the opportunity to watch such a wonderful performance, and the effect will be very good! I have already spoken to Miss Chen Yao and the staff of the show, and they have agreed! ”

Lin Qiangsheng thought for a while and asked, "How do you calculate the appearance fees of the actors?" ”

Tian Jianpeng hurriedly said: "Miss Chen Yao said that tomorrow's appearance fee can not be counted, and the employees who have the show have nothing to complain about." ”

Lin Qiangsheng smiled. He looked at Tian Jianpeng and found that this person had really done everything ahead, but he thought that Chen Yao might have agreed to hear Tian Jianpeng say that he would perform tomorrow without thinking about it. But she is not alone in art school, there are so many sisters, and now this little girl must be worrying about how to talk about it to her sisters and actors backstage. After all, it was only negotiated that the appearance fee of 60,000 yuan for a performance was negotiated, and hundreds of people came to the art school, and each actor could get about 200 yuan, not to mention that some young actors had dozens of yuan.

Lin Qiangsheng said to Tian Jianpeng: "That's it." We will still give 60,000 yuan for tomorrow's performance, and the employees of the factory who come to perform will also add a bonus. Let them have fun during the holidays, which can also encourage employees to develop in the direction of versatility! ”

Tian Jianpeng said with a smile: "Okay, President Lin, you are still thoughtful, I will go and tell Miss Chen Yao!" ”

"What should I do? Why don't you ask Johnson if he has an idea? At this time, Chen Yao was anxiously struggling behind the stage about how to talk to the sisters of the art school, and the other actors had to say it. As soon as Tian Jianpeng said that she was going to perform tomorrow, she naively agreed without thinking about it, and only when she reacted did she feel that things were not easy to do!

I thought about it for a while. Chen Yao plucked up the courage and was about to discuss with Ling Hong and the others when he saw Tian Jianpeng come over with a happy face and said, "Miss Chen Yao, Lin Dong has already agreed, and you will still be paid the appearance fee for tomorrow's performance, and it is still 60,000 yuan!" ”

Chen Yao immediately frowned when she heard the news. Happy exclaimed, "Really, great! I immediately said to the actors, don't worry, there will be absolutely no problem with an extra show tomorrow! ”

Seeing Chen Yao happily burrow into the middle of the actors and announce the news to the people around him, Tian Jianpeng shook his head with a smile, he is now thirty-five or sixteen years old, and he should be regarded as a real middle-aged person.

It turned out that he worked in a state-owned enterprise, and at that time, Tian Jianpeng's work all day was just a small person who worked diligently in the office to write a manuscript for the leader's instructions, and he had no pressure or expectations at that time. But since Tian Jianpeng made up his mind to come to Dongxing Company, he felt the unprecedented vitality of this company! Dongxing Company is just like these young actors in front of them, young and lively!

On 20 February, Lin Qiangsheng and Ku Ming and seven others transferred to Hong Kong, where they joined up with six retired servicemen who had experienced the counterattack against Vietnam and boarded a passenger plane to Bangkok, Thailand.

The six retired servicemen are all from Liangguang, Yunnan, Guizhou, Hainan and other regions, and even if three of them are from the northeast, they grew up in the compound of the Southern Military Region, and they have long been familiar with the hot and humid climate here.

After getting off the plane, Lin Qiangsheng and other Northeast people immediately felt a sticky moisture, and they left the airport and took a car directly to the booked five-star hotel. Here Lin Qiangsheng met Karma Acho and others who had already come to Bangkok, and the two sides were very happy to meet, Lin Qiangsheng hugged the old Carl greatly, and Karma Chocolate was also very excited.

"The Italian security services didn't embarrass you?" Lin Qiangsheng asked with a smile.

Carmacio laughed and said, "Only German intelligence wants to take me away." How could my country have boosted the Germans, if it weren't for the fear of the Nazis they would have let me out a long time ago. Haha, Lin, thank you for your bail help! ”

Lin Qiangsheng saw that Carmacio was all in good condition, presumably with Fiat's strength, Carmacio could really be protected in an Italian prison.

Then Calmacho said apologetically: "I'm sorry for you, Lin! I didn't keep the trade route a secret. The Germans destroyed our trade transport lines! ”

Lin Qiangsheng didn't blame him, the two sides are only interested in each other, and it is already very good for Karma to be able to do things for him as a Westerner in a few years.

He smiled and patted Karmacho on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, I don't blame you, it's all over!" Now let's talk about the automotive market in Thailand and Southeast Asia. ”

The two sides sat down, and Kalmacho shook his head and said: "Lin, I don't know if you are really optimistic about the auto market in Southeast Asia, and I don't know if your decision is correct!" But I'm going to tell you, it's very, very difficult to sell your sedan brand to the people here! Southeast Asians only recognize Japanese cars, and Toyota in particular has an astonishingly high share of cars here. It's as high as 80%! And in Indonesia, Toyota also has a 60% share of its car market! God, this is incredible! It would be great if Fiat Italia had this market share here! ”

Lin Qiangsheng looked at Karmacho's surprised and exaggerated expression, he spread his hands and said: "Although it is difficult to open the market in Southeast Asia, there is no way out for you not to go international as an automobile brand!" We must work hard to open up the market, car manufacturers only move forward and not retreat, so self-contained in a small circle will never come out! ”

What Lin Qiangsheng said is exactly what most car brands in later generations have done. Strive to seize the market. Thirty years later, Volkswagen has 106 factories around the world. And Toyota has more than 130 factories around the world!

In the early 80s, although GM was constantly impacted by Japanese cars in the domestic automobile market in the United States, it still desperately laid out the layout in the world, successively built factories in Europe, Southeast Asia and other regions to increase brand recognition and open up regional markets. If you want to make a car brand go global, you must have a global layout. Governments continue to increase tariffs and restrictions on imported vehicles and spare parts, which is also an important reason for car companies to do so!

Carmago raised his hands in a gesture of surrender and said, "OK, I don't have a place to go anyway to work for you!" Honestly. Thailand is too lively here, and the rest is passable! ”

Lin Qiangsheng laughed and said: "Soon I will provide some villas for you people to live in, always living in a five-star hotel is too expensive, I can't afford it!" ”

Carmacio smiled and said, "Lin, don't be so stingy! But if you want a villa, you must match a maid. That's great! ”

Lin Qiangsheng laughed and said, "Don't worry, no problem!" ”

The news of Dongxing's large-scale investment in Thailand and Southeast Asia was disclosed by the Bangkok media, of course, this is the news that Lin Johnson spent money. Although the Thais don't know what the company is, the newspaper said that the company would invest $2 billion to build several car factories in Southeast Asia.

Of course, $2 billion is a bit of a fictitious amount, but there are still hundreds of millions of dollars. And this news also quickly spread to Hong Kong, Southeast Asia and Hong Kong trade is intensive, there is a storm overseas, Hong Kong media will naturally pay attention to it, and then Hong Kong media also made a detailed report on Dongxing Company.

Only then did Hong Kong people learn from the media that the companies with the prefix Dongxing such as Dongxing Real Estate, which had risen in the past two years, turned out to be a large-scale group mainly engaged in manufacturing industries such as automobiles, electronics, and computers!

Newspapers say that if the group were to list some of its subsidiaries, the total market value would exceed $50 billion! It is one of the top 100 members of the world's top 500 companies, and it is a well-deserved giant! And Lin Qiangsheng, the chairman of this group, was also mentioned for the first time in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan and other media, so that many people really knew the existence of this hidden rich man! According to the past data of Western media, Lin Johnson's personal worth has exceeded 100 billion US dollars, and his investment in the financial field has exceeded 50 billion US dollars! But what is intriguing is that this person has never been on the Forbes rich list since 1982!

If Lin Qiangsheng knew that someone was associated with the famous Forbes rich list, he would definitely laugh three times, because he became the majority shareholder of Forbes magazine long before 1982. Forbes magazine, founded in 1917, has a 96-year history of compiling various rankings, and many hidden rich people have contributed money to the magazine, and Lin Qiangsheng felt that the magazine was too annoying to buy its shares.

Only then did Hong Kong people understand that the Dongxing Real Estate, Dongxing Investment Company, and other Dongxing prefixes, which were rapidly rising in the local area, turned out to be just a little finger of others!

Soon the news of Dongxing's huge investment in Southeast Asia reached the desk of the Xinhua News Agency's Hong Kong branch, and after some searching, they finally found information about Lin Qiangsheng, it turned out that Lin Qiangsheng had also been associated with the Xinhua News Agency branch and had already been in contact with them!

And the Chinese billionaire who suddenly appeared was quickly understood by the reformers of the Special Administrative Region, and Lin Qiangsheng's name was heavily drawn on the list of Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan! (To be continued.) )
