Chapter 31 031 Charity Reception with Ulterior Motives

The little girlfriend Jiang Huayan next to her was very nervous, this was the first time she had participated in such an event, she was wearing a well-cut goose yellow evening dress at this time, quite boldly revealing a deep V, the hem of the evening dress was also very short, and the two smooth and slender legs looked very dazzling. Although she only wore a little light makeup, her whole person exuded an aura of temptation, even that pure and sweet face could not hide the charm of her plump and delicate body.

Qi Yiming patted her little hand and said, "It's okay, we are the protagonists of this reception." ”

Jiang Huayan was worried: "If I don't do a good job, will I be embarrassed for you, or even for the country." ”

Qi Yiming smiled and comforted: "There is no problem with being yourself, remember what I told you, hold your chest up and raise your head, show your beauty to everyone, smile more, don't talk more." ”

Jiang Huayan could only nod and repeatedly admonish herself.

The two walked out of an elongated Lincoln Limo, and although there was a red carpet, there was no spotlight, which was also what Qi Yiming asked before. He was going to attend a charity reception that he had proposed, and the attendees were basically high-ranking celebrities in American politics and business. The theme of the reception was to help educate poor children in China, but in fact, it was to provide a platform for a group of American businessmen to meet and communicate with Qi Yiming.

On behalf of the Celestial Empire, Qi Yiming made a wish to the United States to further open up its market and was willing to allow more American capital to invest in China, which was a great feast, and many well-known entrepreneurs and businessmen had already sharpened their knives and were ready to start making a difference on the other side of the Pacific Ocean.

A pair of young people appeared in the venue, although Qi Yiming is not particularly handsome, but he has his own chic and calm aura, it is rare that he is born without stage fright, even between a group of politicians and big businessmen with heads and faces, he can still smile and talk freely, and behave easily.

And Jiang Huayan beside him attended as his female companion, although she was not downright and generous, but her beautiful beauty from the East was enough to conquer everyone, so she didn't talk much, so she stood beside Qi Yiming like this, always with a faint smile, adding glory to Qi Yiming himself. In particular, Jiang Huayan's evening dress has a very unique aesthetic of later generations like Qi Yiming, so it is even more different.

"Hello, Mr. Qi, we have invited all the guests according to your request." The person in charge of organizing the reception was an official from the United States, who bowed his head and reported to Qi Yiming like a hotel boy.

Qi Yiming nodded, smiled and said to him, "Then bother you to host." ”

The official stepped down, then walked to the podium, tapped the goblet lightly with a spoon, attracted everyone's attention, and with a very formulaic and standard smile, he said: "Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for joining us today. I know that many of you have never been to China, from books, from limited films, maybe you have seen that mysterious land, maybe you have seen it in a terrible society controlled by communism. But thanks to our friend, Mr. Qi Jingren from China, who told us that it is a place of hope and a place that can bring greater contributions to the world. A great country with a population of one billion and the size of the United States is eagerly looking forward to joining our world of freedom and democracy, and I am honored to introduce to you Mr. Qi Jingren, the representative of China's CPC and our friend from the United States. ”

Qi Yiming was still a little scratching his head for this pseudonym, he stood on the stage with a very professional demeanor, looked at the high-level American executives who were each acting like five or six people in the audience, smiled slightly, pressed down with his hands, suppressed everyone's applause, and said: "Thank you, thank you." Decades ago, China fought side by side with the United States to defeat the arrogant Japanese fascism on the Asia-Pacific battlefield, bringing peace to the world. China then chose a different path, which caused our relationship to be estranged, but there is an old Chinese saying: seek common ground while reserving differences. It cannot be denied that the Chinese people, like the American people, yearn for a happy and prosperous life, pursue democracy and freedom, and oppose hegemony and acts of war. Of course, when I come to this free and beautiful country today, I also bring with me something that both Chinese and Americans are willing to do - make money. ”

His words caused a polite laugh from everyone present, and the atmosphere was slowly mobilized to be relaxed and lively.

"Because of the long-term closure and ****, China's CPC has deeply reflected, and our leaders now see what the people need most, that is, a rich material life. It is only today that we realize that we have a huge country and a long history, we have hard-working people and indomitable fighting spirit, but we still have hundreds of millions of people who do not have enough to eat, which is equivalent to the population of the United States. So we can't help but wonder, can the closed life continue? The answer is no!

On the other side of the ocean, the people of the United States have created astonishing wealth, produced a large number of products that our country needs, and possessed superb science and technology. And we ourselves have hundreds of millions of hard-working people, well-known clever minds, vast land and abundant resources. I have no doubt that if these two aspects are combined, there will be great results.

With the progress of American society, some relatively low-end industries have been unable to continue because the cost is too high, and people have to pay higher prices for these goods. But now, when China and the United States come together, companies that were originally unprofitable can open up in China, and we give cheap land, cheap and skilled labor, and preferential policies. At the same time, there is a huge market for a billion people who are frantically in need of daily necessities.

We Chinese are shouting: we want bread, we want milk, we want daily chemicals, we want radios and televisions, we want motorcycles and cars, and even we need advanced fighter jets to defend our country against the hegemony of the Soviets against our motherland. ”

At this time a gentleman shouted: "Yes, against the Soviets, we don't want a nuclear war, we want business!" ”

His words were recognized by the American celebrities present, who applauded and repeated: "No war, no business!" "In fact, there are at least a dozen company owners and senior employees from the military-industrial complex, and they shout such things as if there is no psychological pressure at all.

Qi Yiming continued: "The 20th century has gradually come to an end, and we firmly believe that peace and development will become the mainstream of the world in the new century, and a new world of globalization, free trade, and mutual benefit and win-win results will emerge in the witness of our generation. Today, my country may be just a rookie in this event, but she has a lot of potential, and I'm sure everyone here can see it. I also firmly believe that China's development will not only help us save this ancient country, but also share the fruits of its development with our world partners in the process of development.

Let's put it this way, our charity reception today is actually a microcosm of the world. There are tens of millions of smart and down-to-earth children in China, who lack education and food, but when they get this, they can become excellent workers, excellent engineers, and talented artists, and they will create greater wealth for the world, and the people who have helped them will share their success in the process. Our country is the child in need at this time, and this help will be more productive and rewarding for all of you, and I am sure that you will not regret it. ”

Qi Yiming's not long speech received warm applause, he himself is simply a person who opens his mouth to talk nonsense and does not need to make drafts, and it is common for him to engage in business speeches in the past, he can find the G-spot of this group of Americans, and he can say black to white. So in essence, he is no different from the group of arms dealers in the audience who are happy like harmless little sheep.

As soon as Qi Yiming came down from the stage, he was surrounded by waves of people, and the first person to surround him was a member of the National Textile Industry Association, and a gentleman said excitedly: "Wonderful speech Mr. Qi, your mind and enthusiasm make everyone excited. On behalf of the National Textile Industry Association, I would like to donate $100,000 to poor schoolchildren in China. ”

"Thank you so much, and on behalf of the children, I thank you and your peers."

As a result, the gentleman immediately changed his tone: "This is what we should do." By the way, Mr. Qi, we have read the information you provided to the Ministry of Commerce, which says that Chinese textile workers have excellent business skills, and their average monthly salary is only 15-30 US dollars, is this true? ”

Qi Yiming blinked and said: "That's right, gentlemen, I am very sure that in China may be the most suitable country for the production of the textile industry in the whole world, first of all, we have millions of textile labor, the textile industry itself is a labor-intensive enterprise, and our labor cost is still quite low compared with developed countries." What's more, we also have preferential policies, if gentlemen are interested in transferring your factories to China, or directly investing in some of our existing factories, our government will give them full tax exemption treatment for three years. What's more, China's North China and Northwest China are both traditional cotton-producing areas, and perhaps we can also cooperate with the US agricultural department in this regard to introduce some better cotton seeds. ”

The person who was eavesdropping on the side immediately jumped out: "Mr. Qi, do you plan to cooperate with our agricultural association?" Does China have any intention of buying our American agricultural products? ”
