Emgrand Apartment is a high-end foreign-related serviced apartment in Chengdu, which aims to serve foreign senior employees working in Chengdu as the main target market, and is very popular with foreign senior employees with the service of a five-star hotel, but the price is only one-third of that of a five-star hotel. As the director of Dimat's office in Chengdu, Matt naturally chose this high-end apartment as his living area.

The high-end club has authentic cafes, bars, Chinese restaurants and Western restaurants, tennis courts, swimming pools and other fitness venues, and the service level is no less than the five-star standard. To be honest, Matt has worked in many countries around the world, and the five-star hotels in many countries have not been able to catch up with the service level here, so Matt is very satisfied here, and the club here has always had a high-end image in Chengdu, which is especially suitable for Matt's frequent social life.

At eight o'clock that night, Matt invited another senior R&D executive of SAL to come here for recreation.

Just after eight o'clock, Matt sat in a private room at the bar, turned on the TV and watched while waiting for the guests, most of his Chinese was self-taught by watching some Chinese satellite TV programs.

Matt is a very aspiring person, in the Marine Corps used his free time to teach himself Spanish and French, it was with the proficiency of Spanish and French this excellent language talent that allowed Matt to enter the CIA, and after entering the CIA, Matt did not stay in the language, he continued to learn Russian and Chinese, because Matt found that in the future CIA's main work countries, language is undoubtedly one of the most important reasons.

Russian and Chinese are the most needed languages for the CIA, so Matt has been working hard in this area, and when he has a good foundation in the bureau's language training courses, Matt takes advantage of various opportunities to strengthen himself, the most important way to learn is to watch satellite TV programs in various languages.

Whenever he arrives at a school location, Matt's free time is spent watching local TV programs, especially learning the local language and habits through local lifestyle TV programs.

So after eight o'clock, although the invited guests have not yet come, Matt is not in a hurry, he seriously watched a local TV station in Rongcheng, and worked hard to learn some common languages and living habits in Chengdu, it is not easy to be a qualified field agent, especially the difference between Chinese culture and Western culture is too great, and it is difficult to integrate into the living environment of the target object without serious study.

What may be considered commonplace in the West is a particularly difficult thing for people in this part of China to understand, and Matt certainly does not make mistakes in these details, so if he has the effort, he will learn the local customs and try to follow the local customs as much as possible to reduce the interference of this factor.

For example, in terms of the concept of time, Matt has become accustomed to saying that he will meet at eight o'clock, but in fact, he will come one after another after a quarter of eight o'clock, and the people who come will definitely be very sorry to describe various excuses to explain.

Sure enough, when Matt finished watching this local life news show, the first guest arrived.

Lu Yongfu,A director-level supervisor of SAL company's smart TV product line research and development,Now responsible for the research and development of smart TV control system,In his project,There are many control boards that can be used with Dimat's chips,Last year, the number of various chips used by Dimat's company was not less than one million,It can be regarded as a big customer of Dimat,What is little known is that Lu Yongfu was also called by Duke to DSM to participate in the research of tank control system,He is one of the leaders of the R&D team。

Matt's value for Lu Yongfu is certainly not because he is a key customer of Dimat, but because of some of the content that Lu Yongfu has studied at DSM.

"Mr. Lu, hello, hello! Inside please! Matt said with a smile in very standard Mandarin, and the elevated title of "Mr. So-and-so" is obviously extremely inappropriate in the Western world, but it is a polite way to greet here, although Lu Yongfu is a project director, but there is still a considerable distance from the honorific title of "* Mr. ", but meeting to call "Mr. So-and-so" is the first custom that Matt learned here, because Matt soon found that the people here actually mean this title as the Western title "Mr. So-and-so".

"Mr. Matt, I'm sorry, I'm in a traffic jam on the road today, so I'm a little late." Although Lu Yongfu said sorry in his mouth, he didn't seem to have the slightest sincerity of apology, of course Matt would not be serious with him in this regard, so the traffic jam in Rongcheng was indeed more serious, but if Matt went to the appointment, he would take this factor into account in advance and make sure that he arrived on time a little earlier.

"Mr. Lu is too polite, I just arrived for a while, I think the traffic in Chengdu is more serious than New York, China's automobile industry has developed too rapidly in recent decades, and it took more than ten years to complete the process of a hundred years in the West, relatively speaking, road traffic does need to be improved." Matt complimented China's development without a trace, he knew that the Chinese liked to listen to this, as if this development was his own credit, and there was an inexplicable sense of superiority.

Of course, to be realistic, China's development in this area is indeed beyond people's imagination, at the end of the first decade of the 21st century, it surpassed the United States to become the world's largest automobile market, in Chengdu this place the penetration rate of cars has been close to the Western world, and the road resources are far from the West, so in this case, traffic jams have become a scenic line in Chengdu, and the evening rush hour from six to eight o'clock is more significant.

"It does need to be greatly improved, not to mention the first ring and second ring, traffic jams have been accustomed, but now even the third ring is jammed like a snail crawling, which is a bit unbearable, the government should indeed vigorously improve it, add a three-ring viaduct fast track is, now the third ring is the main living belt, this traffic jam is too delaying things." Lu Yongfu complained.

He forgot that the viaduct was built in the second ring road and was filled with more cars without much effort, so that the traffic management department had to use traffic restrictions to solve the explosive growth of traffic, and the growth of roads with thousands of cars could never keep up with the growth of cars.

Soon, when the bartender brought Lu Yongfu's favorite red wine, the two of them pushed the glass and handed over a bottle of belly, and began to come to the second bottle, the topic gradually shifted from various gossip to topics such as project progress and chip demand.

Talking about things at the wine table, this is the second important custom that Matt learned in Rongcheng, he found that when the wine is hot, it seems that everything is much more casual to talk about, even if sometimes his own requirements are excessive, as long as he sees that the other party's reaction is a little wrong, he can make a fuss about the wine casually.

In this way, Matt uncovered a lot of secret information that he would not normally inquire about.

Although Matt spends a lot of money on alcohol, thousands of red wine often consume several bottles at a time, and if Matt doesn't have a good amount of alcohol, it is likely that the target will be fine, and he will get drunk first.

Today, Matt used three bottles of red wine to get a valuable piece of information from Lu Yongfu, who accidentally mentioned that DSM was working on the unmanned transformation of an old aircraft.

Therefore, when Matt warmly bid farewell to Lu Yongfu and made an appointment to meet next time, he was in a very happy mood, and even on the way back to the apartment, Matt hummed a hometown tune.

However, Matt didn't know that his every move today had all fallen into the eyes of people with intentions.
