Next chapter
Lin Qiangsheng, Yu Hongda, and Cong Fukui led a Q City economic and trade delegation to the United States, a group of nearly 80 people, set off on November 20, first arrived in Beijing by plane, and then transferred to another plane, and finally arrived in San Francisco, California, after more than 20 hours of flight.
The itinerary of the delegation was arranged by the Dongxing Group, I don't know who leaked the news, first attracted the attention of many departments in the city, and then when the city really formed a delegation, the number of people who signed up was large, and the city had to reiterate again and again that this was mainly the visit of the leaders of various departments.
Q City is not like a provincial capital, let alone a coastal city, the number of people and the number of times they go abroad are very limited, this time it is paid by foreign businessmen, not to mention how happy the leading cadres are. Basically, this delegation has included the first and second leaders of various departments and units in the city, as well as some of their family members.
Wang Yun and Han Jinyu, who are studying business economics at the University of San Francisco, arrived at the airport to greet them.
Wang Yun pulled a beautiful girl and introduced Lin Qiangsheng: "Johnson & Johnson, this is my classmate from the University of San Francisco, Li Zhi, Miss Li, she is from Hong Kong. β
Li Zhi generously stretched out his hand and shook hands with Lin Qiangsheng, and said with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Lin, in fact, I am from Shanghai!" β
"Lizhi?" Lin Qiangsheng looked at this egg-faced girl in surprise, shook hands with her, and said suspiciously: "Why are you not in Hong Kong?" β
"Huh?" Li Zhi looked at Lin Qiangsheng in surprise and shook his head: "No, I haven't gone back yet!" She was very puzzled that Lin Qiangsheng and her met for the first time, but why they seemed to know herself.
Han Jinyu was greeting everyone, when she saw Lin Qiangsheng and Li Zhi chatting, she rolled her eyes and said to the members of the inspection team: "Everyone carry your luggage, come with me, don't fall behind!" β
Yu Hongda, his wife, and his granddaughter walked in the front, and then Cong Fukui and his wife, as well as their son, daughter-in-law, and grandson, the whole family set out.
Cong Fukui greeted Lin Qiangsheng and said, "Xiaolin, let's go!" β
Lin Qiangsheng turned around and said, "Okay, everyone follow closely, we have already chartered the car, and we can send everyone to the hotel directly!" β
"It's so good, Xiao Lin is really meticulous in arranging!" Yu Hongda's wife boasted, everyone was very satisfied with the trip, if they were on their own plane, how could it be arranged so well, foreign capital is foreign capital.
Yu Hongda felt honored, as the head of the delegation, the person in charge of the delegation, said to everyone: "Everyone keep up, don't fall behind!" When you arrive at the hotel, you will be called one by one, don't leave people abroad! β
"Yes, got it, old secretary!" Everyone laughed and walked out of the airport with Wang Yun and Han Jinyu.
Li Zhi also came to help, she heard in advance that these people were from China to visit California, and they were all officials. She herself studied business at the University of San Francisco and certainly wanted to develop in this area, so she was as serious about this reception as she was about work.
Dongxing hired three city buses to fit the more than 80 people. In addition, there is also a big Jielong business vehicle leading the way.
This MPV commercial vehicle has been selling like crazy in North America, with 250,000 units produced and sold in '85. Since the American automobile company was acquired by Johnson & Johnson, it quickly got out of the predicament and re-injected capital, and the 5 factories under AM started production at full capacity, and now the luxury business car has become the most profitable model!
The delegation was accompanied by five engineers and technicians from the Dongxing Automobile Research Institute. The Acura Legend coupe and Integra midsize luxury cars, which have been rigorously tested, have arrived in Los Angeles and will be unveiled at the Los Angeles Auto Show on November 28.
At the same time, the two cars at the LS Automotive Research Institute in San Francisco will also undergo more rigorous testing, and at the same time, the corresponding actual car training, tuning and improvement of the car, and then large-scale advertising.
Akula will begin production in February next year, for middle- and high-income families in the United States, at least that's what Lin hopes.
The car dropped them off at the Hilton Hotel in San Francisco's Union Square, a five-star hotel that stunned everyone as soon as they entered the luxurious Cheng DΓΉ.
Yu Hongda said worriedly to Lin Qiangsheng: "Xiaolin, this hotel is too high-end, too standard!" Let's just choose a more affordable one! β
Lin Qiangsheng said to Yu Hongda and everyone: "It's okay, just live here." It's not the tourist season, the hotel has discounts, plus we are buying in a group, it's cheaper. You can rest assured that this Hilton is very close to Union Square, which is a famous shopping street, which is very convenient, everyone go inside! β
Seeing that everyone was still a little hesitant, he hurriedly said: "In addition, the breakfast here is a free buffet, and you can eat prawns and chicken legs!" β
"Oh, that sounds good, we can eat more at the buffet and not have to eat at noon or night!" Cong Fukui said with a smile on the side, and the others also nodded in agreement, everyone really thought so.
The foreign exchange brought by the crowd is very limited, and in order to be able to buy more things, especially some foreign goods that are not available or in short supply in China, it doesn't matter if they eat a few less meals.
Yu Hongda didn't say anything when he saw that everyone agreed to live here, in fact, he and his wife didn't want to change places. Usually domestic people live in small hotels near the embassy, and I heard that the conditions are very poor, and the food is not cheap.
"Lao Cong, you will be here in a while, and I will go to the Consulate General in San Francisco to report the schedule!" Yu Hongda said to Cong Fukui.
Cong Fukui also wanted to go out for a walk, and said: "Otherwise, I'll go, Secretary Yu, you stay, I think you're quite tired!" β
"It's okay, you greet everyone up and down, let everyone rest!" Yu Hongda said directly, and Cong Fukui didn't argue, so he nodded.
"Sister Wang Yun, what is the origin of this Lin Qiangsheng? It's like a big official! Li Zhi was free and asked Wang Yun.
In fact, she is now 24 years old, Wang Yun is one or two years older than her, although she is young but quite mature, she is more visible than Wang Yun.
Wang Yun looked at Li Zhi's figure and said jokingly: "What's the matter, do you want to know him?" No problem, I'll tell Lin Qiangsheng later, you have to get to know him! β
Li Zhi didn't squirm, nodded generously and said, "Okay, that's troublesome sister, in fact, I'm more strange, he seems to know me!" β
Wang Yun snorted and laughed: "This little pervert, he wants to know all the beautiful girls, don't fall for him!" β
Lin Qiangsheng left the hotel and immediately rushed to the LS Institute's test site outside the city, and the project was still in charge of Kodinan.
Kodinan had a headache when he saw Lin Qiangsheng, he had the typical temper of an Italian, yelled and complained, and then said: "You are a fast driver by design, you are always in such a hurry, and we have no room for preparation, which is too bad!" β
Lin Qiangsheng said apologetically: "It's my fault this time, and I will test and tune these two models immediately." Next year, your research institute will be busy, and my car factories will accelerate the launch of new models in the future, and I will give you a salary increase! β
Kodinan shrugged his shoulders and said, "Maybe the engineers will be happy, but I don't, the cars we designed before have already filled the entire library!" β
Lin Qiangsheng smiled: "That's good, I will open three new brands next year, and your research can be used!" β
Kodinan asked, "Lin, do you want to engage in a multi-brand strategy like other car manufacturers?" Now you have a lot of brands, and it is already great to concentrate on doing a good job! β
Lin Qiangsheng nodded, and said regretfully: "I also know this, but the reason why so many brands are developed is indeed a practical need, China's automobile market is not a good quality to win, multi-brand strategy has its needs!" β
Kodinan raised his hand in surrender and said, "OK, you're the boss!" β
After all, the Italian still seriously organized the test, and the two professional test drivers of Dongxing were also ready to go into battle, wearing fireproof racing suits and helmets, in fact, they are retired professional racing drivers, who can test the various conditions of the car to the extreme, which ordinary drivers can't do.
