Chapter 172: Undercurrent
Liang Sanping was extremely surprised that Tan Yu came to find him. Tan Yu didn't know him, but he knew Tan Yu. Of course, it wasn't that he had contact with Tan Yu. But Liang Sanping later saw reports about Tan Yu from newspapers and magazines.
He didn't expect that this China Merchants boss would invite him to dinner with him at this time. Liang Sanping could see that Tan Yu looked at him with appreciation in his eyes.
At this time, he suddenly understood why Ye Jianwen would tell him about attracting investment to build roads, which was the most critical moment. On the road of reform, Liang Sanping knows the role played by Tan Yu.
Even he knows better than anyone. Because people still don't know how much effort Tan Yu put into the road of reform in the end. If it weren't for the later newspaper revelations of his experience, no one would have known about it for the rest of their lives.
"This is Comrade Tan Yu, general manager of our China Merchants North Guangdong Region, and I am his secretary Feng Hua." But I saw Feng Hua, who had just been excerpting Liang Sanping's words, come over at this time, and smiled at Liang Sanping and said, "Does Comrade Sanping have time?!" ”
Looking at Tan Yu and Feng Hua, Liang Sanping smiled and said, "I guess I'll have to have a meal with those Japanese people in the evening, and you are all here." If the leader doesn't dislike it, you can come and sit with me after dinner. ”
After a pause, Liang Sanping looked at Tan Yu and said, "I still have some information there, I think Comrade Tan is interested." When the time comes, we can take a look together, and I hope Comrade Tan doesn't mind. ”
Tan Yu patted his head, he was happy to be patronized just now. But he forgot that the Japanese were going to negotiate, and the negotiations between the two houses and the Japanese were time-sensitive. It is normal for Liang Sanping to take care of that side first.
"Alright then, I'll just wait for you to finish eating!" Tan Yu laughed and said to Liang Sanping: "Tell the truth." I'm very interested in your suggestion of bringing in money to build roads. If you can, that's what we're talking about. ”
"There's no problem with that, that's all I just said......"
Imperial capital airport, with a buzzing roar of airplanes. A passenger plane descended from the sky and glided slowly onto the runway. After the plane has come to a standstill, the hatch opens.
Immediately, dozens of passengers were seen getting off the plane in twos and threes. in this group of passengers. There are more than a dozen of them that are very special. Some of them went out to the cabin first and waited, and then walked towards the departure hall until the other dozen or so people had arrived.
The group of people moved in an orderly manner, and surrounded a man about fifty years old, not tall in a suit and trench coat, and walked vigilantly towards the airport gate.
Outside, there were already people waiting with signs. When he saw them come out, he immediately greeted them. The men who surrounded the man in the suit and trench coat glanced at the man vigilantly before putting him into the encirclement of themselves and the others.
"Your Excellency President, you have worked hard all the way!" I saw this person bow deeply to the man in the suit and trench coat in the middle, and said, "We have arranged for the car to be outside the door, you can go back to our office in the imperial capital now......"
The person who came was Yamazaki, the president of Wanhong Co., Ltd. And follow him. In addition to some of the security personnel, he is the main person in charge of the club's mainland work.
"Well, back in the office. You give us a debriefing first, and then we'll rest. But he saw Yamazaki tighten his collar and said to this man: "Tomorrow, I want to see the Japanese consul in China." Got it?! ”
"Hay! Your Excellency, President, we have already made arrangements. His Excellency the Consul also agreed to meet and said that he would be very willing to see us cooperate with the Chinese side. This is also in line with the Prime Minister's Office's request for rapprochement between the two sides......"
The staff member picked Yamazaki into the car. Then he reported to Yamazaki the results of his own and others' efforts during this time. After receiving the request from Headquarters, the entire office began to operate without delay.
The head of the office, Kazu Tanimoto, personally went to the embassy. Meet with the Ambassador to China for assistance and referrals. At the same time, the ambassador was informed of Wanhong's estimated market sales. Of course, the benefits may be promised. Otherwise, will people do things for you in vain?! Definitely not.
Next, the Japanese ambassador helped run various departments in China, but he didn't directly say what was going on. I just said that I hope to expand the cooperation between the two sides, and the president of a company will go to the imperial capital to discuss in person in the near future.
This is naturally a good thing for the foreign trade department. I can earn foreign exchange. What the country lacks now is foreign exchange. I heard that some companies are coming to discuss cooperation, and it is led by the ambassador to China.
Naturally, the foreign trade department was extremely happy. Being able to be led by an ambassador of a country shows the strength of this enterprise. At the same time, it also shows the importance that this company attaches to this investment.
"Your Excellency Yamazaki, welcome to the Imperial Capital!" When Yamazaki arrives at the office, he unexpectedly sees Jun Kuroda, the consul in charge of communicating with him. But I saw Jun Kuroda stand up. He bowed slightly to Yamazaki and said with a smile.
"Your Excellency, Your Excellency, is in talks with the Chinese side because of your company's affairs, and I cannot come to see you in person. So I was appointed as a representative to communicate with you. Thank you for your understanding. ”
Yamazaki stepped forward with a smile, and also bowed to Junichi Kuroda and said with a smile, "Where! For the sake of the club, it is troublesome for His Excellency the Ambassador and His Excellency the Consul. Yamazaki is deeply disturbed, and I hope you can give Yamazaki a chance to repay the kindness of the two of you......"
But at this time, an entourage behind Yamazaki stepped forward. A box was placed on the table, and Yamazaki made a gesture of "please" with his palm, saying, "I am the 'morning dew' that I prepared for you from Tokyo." Please also try ......"
Morning dew is actually a synonym for Japanese sweets "Wagashi". In fact, it is a general term for confectionery, pastries and desserts and ice products. The main raw materials for making zuò are: sugar, rice, glutinous rice, wheat flour, etc., and different special ingredients are added according to different tastes.
Because of its emphasis on hand-made skills, wagashi is known as the "flower of Japanese food culture". In the Nara period of more than 700 years ago, Washi was transmitted to Japan from the Tang Dynasty in China.
"I heard that Ling Yuan loves music, especially the piano. Yamazaki was delighted. So he informed the chairman of the Yamari Diving Foundation, Mr. Soma. ”
"Chairman Soma heard about it and paid a special visit to your home. is full of praise for Ling Yuan's musical talent. For this reason, he specially asked Mr. Nojima to guide Ling Yuan. As for Kiritho Gakuen University, President Soma is also in contact. If there are no accidents, they will also consider sending Ling Yuan to Berlin University of the Arts for further study......"
Seeing Yamazaki pause, he said with a smile: "Of course, this is all the credit of the 'Yamari Diving Foundation' and President Soma." ”
Junichi Kuroda couldn't help but smile and nod when he heard this, but it was obviously not enough to satisfy his appetite. So he just nodded and smiled, and didn't say much. He waited for Yamazaki to offer more bids.
"I heard that Ling is inspecting the house in Setagaya, and it just so happens that a friend of mine has one in his possession. Nice 3 storey living room with front and back gardens and parking space ......"
Sure enough, Yamazaki threw out another price code. Only then did Junichi Kuroda stand up and bow slightly to Yamazaki, and chuckled: "Thank you Mr. Yamazaki for your concern, I am away all year round due to my work." I'm really sorry for my family......"
The tacit two closed the deal, and Yamazaki breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that this consul's appetite is not particularly large. As long as it is not excessive, then Yamazaki is still willing to give the consul some benefits.
Who knows if he will rise to a high position in the future?! Maybe at that time, I will need his help more. At this time, it is acceptable to befriend him and pay some price. And his request is not too much in Yamazaki's opinion.
"China's foreign trade department is very interested in this deal, and my advice to you is that you can sell them some test equipment. If there are these foundations, then I believe that the Chinese side will be very willing to facilitate this deal. ”
Having received benefits, Kuroda naturally has to be worthy of these benefits. In this regard, Kuroda considers himself to have always been dedicated. Indeed, he was as dedicated as he thought.
"The Chinese foreign trade department has contacted us several times and tried to buy some special machine tools and instruments from us. Of course, we have to reject them. ”
Kuroda didn't say much about what he said next, but Yamazaki knew it in his heart. There are some things that don't need to be said too clearly. China has just opened up now, and some industrial machine tools and real equipment have obviously not kept up with the times.
"Your Excellency, then, Consul. When can we arrange for us to meet with them?! But Yamazaki asked Kuroda with a smile. When the latter heard this, he bowed slightly to Yamazaki and said.
"I'll let you know when Mr. Ambassador returns. You can rest assured that we will do our best to arrange for you to meet. But seeing Kuroda smile slightly, he said softly: "Of course, I recommend that you get in touch with another gentleman......
At this time, Liao Bin walked out of his office. Looking at the red glow in the sky, he took a deep breath. He held a briefing note in his hand, which gave a brief explanation.
The president of Wanhong came to the imperial capital quietly, which was not a good thing in Liao Bin's opinion. Of course, this may also mean that something good will happen. Who knows?!
The instructions given to Liao Bin from above were to keep a close watch. Try your best to find out what Yamazaki came to the imperial capital for. Although there is no clear evidence, Liao Bin faintly feels that Yamazaki's arrival is very related to the current investigation of Qiongdao...... (To be continued......)
