"In that case...... When can you start translating Product Solutions? Ma Kui, deputy director of the Provincial Planning Commission, asked.

"Hmm...... I'll talk to Mr. Cliff after dinner, and then I'll be able to start translating this afternoon, and I'll give you the translation the morning after tomorrow. Zhou Jianhua replied with a slight groan.

When Zhou Jianhua answered everyone's product inquiries in the morning, he kept the English version of the "product solution" brought by Cliff as a reference, and he already knew the content of this plan, and it was estimated that there should be no problem in completing the translation work in a day and a half.

"That's good! In that case, let's postpone our next meeting by four or five days. Ma Kui looked around at several other leaders and suggested:

"The day after tomorrow, Xiao Zhou's translation will have to be burned and mimeographed, so it will take another day or two."

"After we get the mimeographed copy of Xiao Zhou's translation, we have to get together to study it again, I'm afraid it will take another day or two...... It's hard to ......set this time," Yu Zhongnian, deputy director of the Provincial Economic Commission, reminded, he thought about it, and then suggested to everyone:

"I think this matter has to be safe, and we can't get too stuck in time...... Today is Tuesday, and I suggest that the technical staff of this project team meet first after getting the mimeographed translation on Friday, and then we will get together again next Tuesday to discuss - every Monday there are some regular meetings in various departments, and we can meet on Tuesday and then ask Mr. Cliff to come over next Wednesday to negotiate the signing. ”

"Yes! Next Tuesday is more appropriate......" Several other department and committee leaders also agreed.

"Well, that's it! So......" Ma Kui looked at Zhou Jianhua, then turned his head to Ren Zhongfa, the director of the Nandu Machine Pump Factory, who was sitting at the back, and said:

"He was the factory director. Comrade Xiao Zhou's problems with food, housing, and transportation these days. It's up to you to take care of it! Comrade Xiao Zhou is a distinguished guest of your factory. Be sure to settle in! ”

"No problem! That's what we should do! You can rest assured! Hehe......" Ren Zhongfa hurriedly replied.

In order to be able to introduce this large-scale computer system to the Nandu Machine Pump Factory, Ren Zhongfa can be said to have spent a lot of effort, and finally passed the Municipal Industrial Bureau, Foreign Trade Bureau, Provincial Department of Industry, Foreign Trade Department, Provincial Planning Commission, Provincial Economic Commission and other departments of the examination and approval of the Municipal Industrial Bureau, Foreign Trade Bureau, Foreign Trade Department, Provincial Planning Commission, Provincial Economic Commission and other departments, but the result was stuck by technical problems, the negotiation time was delayed again and again, and it was difficult to start negotiations, and in the process of negotiation with foreign businessmen, communication was not smooth, and it was difficult.

At this critical moment, Zhou Jianhua fell from the sky. made Ren Zhongfa, who had been entangled and uneasy, suddenly feel bright and bright, and his heart suddenly brightened. At this time, don't talk about one Zhou Jianhua, even ten Zhou Jianhua, without the instructions of the leader, he will definitely serve well and entertain him with all his might.

Although Zhou Jianhua had to retranslate the "product solution" of the large-scale computer introduction project, which made the original negotiation process have to be postponed for a few days, both Ren Zhongfa, the director of the factory and the leaders of various departments and committees, felt that this was the most appropriate arrangement at present.

The new translation that Zhou Jianhua is about to give will provide a more professional and detailed translation, along with other information and details about the computer system that he has. This makes everyone's hearts feel at ease, after all, in this era. A few million dollars is not a small amount, if anything. That's a lot of responsibility and serious consequences!

After the new arrangements were decided, the leaders of the department and committee found a random reason at the luncheon for Cliff to inform him that Cliff's next meeting would have to be postponed for a few days. Although Cliff was a little depressed, he could only accept it.

After the meal, Li Yongping, assistant to the director of Nandu Machine Pump Factory, and Zhou Jianhua took the original Changhe minivan to send Cliff back to Jiangnan Hotel.

After Cliff got out of the car, Zhou Jianhua also got out of the car to say goodbye to Cliff.

"Mr. Cliff, I can't continue to be your private translator, so I'm leaving now." Zhou Jianhua said.

"Why?!" Cliff asked, puzzled.

"Because...... Belch...... Since your negotiations are being postponed until next week, there is no point in me staying during this time, and besides, I have something to do myself. Zhou Jianhua replied.

"That's ...... Well, thank you very much for the translation service you provided me today, your translation was very smooth and made me feel a lot easier...... This is your labor fee for today. As he spoke, Cliff took out a wad of money from his pocket, drew two large unity sheets and handed them to Zhou Jianhua.

Zhou Jianhua waved his hand and refused: "Mr. Cliff, I can't ask for your money anymore, you have already paid for my labor fee for half a day today yesterday, hehe......"

"Oh! What I paid yesterday is different from what I paid today, because I treated you as a friend when I invited you to dinner yesterday, I paid you for labor today. ”

"Then I can't ask for it either! Thank you so much for your generosity, Mr. Cliff! Hehe......" Zhou Jianhua smiled and refused again:

But we Chinese have a saying that "no merit is not unacceptable", even friends should not just make friends cheap! Besides, I'm leaving halfway now, so why am I embarrassed to ask for more of your wages? ”

"Well, Mr. Zhou, it seems that you not only have extremely professional skills, but also a very self-respecting Chinese, you have a very good impression on me, and I sincerely hope to see you again in the future." Cliff nodded and looked at Zhou Jianhua admiringly.

"Hehe, Mr. Cliff, we'll see each other again in a while!" Zhou Jianhua said with a smile.

"Oh? Why? Cliff asked.

"Because I've accepted the invitation from the leaders just now, I'm going to work for them for a while, including talking to them next week about the introduction of this mainframe computer." Zhou Jianhua said with a smile.

"Oh! So that's it! Cliff suddenly realized, and then asked in some bewilderment:

"But why? Do they pay you more for your services than I pay you? ”

"Nope! No! Because I am Chinese, I must obey the needs of the country. Zhou Jianhua replied with a smile.

"Uh...... What do you mean. Were you coerced by them @ to give up a higher pay? Or. Are you actively and selflessly contributing to the country? Cliff asked again.

"Neither!" Zhou Jianhua groaned slightly. Then he looked at Cliff again, and replied very earnestly:

"Because I am Chinese, this is where I grew up, and only when the country needs me can I give, can I get help from the state when I need it - this is called "I am for everyone, everyone is for me" - there is also this sentence in Alexandre Dumas's "Three Musketeers", you must know this. ”

"So that's ......" Cliff looked at Zhou Jianhua and nodded silently, and said:

"Although I don't really agree with your idea. However, I can see that you are a very sincere and down-to-earth person, and I think we will become friends. ”

Zhou Jianhua replied with a smile: "Hehe, Mr. Cliff, I am also very happy to be friends with you, and maybe in the near future, we can become partners!" ”

"Partner?" Cliff asked, puzzled:

"What do you mean?"

"I know that you at Incison have developed the "personal computer", which is a promising type of computer. Zhou Jianhua smiled and said:

"If there is a condition in the future. Maybe I'll consider representing your company's products. Of course, I'm talking about what if...... Hehe......"

"Mr. Zhou. It seems that you know a lot about the development trend of the computer industry! Hehe...... You're a friend, I'm done! Cliff happily stretched out his hand and held Zhou Jianhua tightly.

――――――――――

The Changhe minivan is driving smoothly on the asphalt road back to the Nandu Pump Factory.

Li Yongping, assistant to the factory director, sat in the passenger seat of the van, turned his head and asked Zhou Jianhua, who was sitting in the back seat:

"Comrade Xiao Zhou, in the past two days, in order to take care of you conveniently, we plan to place you in the guest house of our factory, do you think it's okay?"

"Hehe, Assistant Li, I'm not a child, what do I need to take care of......" Zhou Jianhua replied with a smile:

"It doesn't matter where you live, as long as you don't have a desk in a place that's not too noisy."

"Huh...... Comrade Xiao Zhou, our factory director has explained to me, in the past two days, I am no longer his assistant, I am now your assistant! Li Yongping said half-jokingly:

"Our factory is also a big factory in Nandu, the conditions of the guest house are still so-so, we plan to vacate the special renovation of the suite in the guest house for the superior leaders to come to inspect and give you a person, no one will disturb you, you don't have to go downstairs to eat, I will send you three meals a day. In addition, I am also responsible for sorting out your translation for the past two days, you only need to translate it, and I can transcribe the manuscript. I will immediately send the finished manuscript to our factory office for them to burn and mimeograph. ”

"Haha! How do I feel like I'm under soft @ confinement? Zhou Jianhua listened to Li Yongping's words and couldn't help but joke.

"Huh...... How could it be! Just because you don't have to go downstairs doesn't mean you can't go downstairs! Li Yongping explained with a smile:

"Considering that the translation of these materials is difficult and there are a lot of them, we also want to provide you with a good working environment as much as possible - today you only asked a few department leaders for a day and a half to translate this information, and our translation a year ago, but the three of us worked together for four days to finally complete the translation!"

"Hehe, Assistant Li, if you also help sort out and transcribe the translation, then I should have enough time in one day." Zhou Jianhua said with a faint smile:

"After I finish it around noon tomorrow, I will go back to Sword City first, and when you have mimeographed all the materials, I will come over on Friday to communicate with the technical staff of this "project team", no problem, right? ”

"Absolutely! As long as you can translate well, even if it's today, it's no problem! Hehe......" Li Yongping replied with a smile:

"If you want to go back tomorrow, we'll take you back in this car!" (To be continued......)
