Chapter 8 Killing Many Birds with One Stone in One Stone

Saying that Yali, Haiyan, Yuhan and Qiao Jie had just returned to the hotel where they were staying after tasting wine and admiring the moon at sea, the famous tenor PT and pianist BR, who had been waiting in the hall for a long time, immediately respectfully invited Yali and Haiyan to go to the bar for a few more drinks.

"Yali, Haiyan, I am very appreciative of your performance today, you are future oriental superstars, we have been waiting here for a long time, I would like to invite you to the bar for a few drinks." PT's Mandarin Chinese is very authentic.

With such an invitation from a big-name singer and pianist, Yali and Haiyan were really embarrassed to refuse, so they immediately agreed with a smile.

"Ladies first, please go this way." BR waved his hand to indicate the direction of travel.

Yali and Haiyan, who were walking in front, gave each other a look, and squeezed each other's hands vigorously, they both knew in their hearts that they should "be cautious and protect each other".

The bar is an open-plan with a natural landscape, criss-crossed streams flowing between the rocks, beautiful caves with marble tables and stools, cool in the middle of summer, decorated with soft coloured lights and a saxophone solo "Romantic Rose" playing in the background......

The four of them sat down, PT and Yali facing each other, and BR and Haiyan facing each other.

PT gestured to the service desk and was presented with a fruit platter, a large glass of YDL white grape ice wine per person, and a waitress standing by to wait for orders.

PT and BR introduced each other, and the standard Mandarin and the intonation were very similar to a rehearsed performance......

After listening to PT and BR's introductions, Yali and Haiyan understood the real purpose of their invitation to "have a few drinks" today......

It turns out that PT and BR have been good friends since childhood, and the two of them have also been friendly for generations.

PT's father was in charge of the cultural industry and tourism, and the largest literary publishing house and international magazine in the country, Global Village, which has the largest circulation of periodicals in the country, is the property of the PT family, and 55% of the tourist attractions in country X are owned by the PT family. PT is 38 years old, unmarried, his father handed over the Chinese market to him to develop, he is eager to find a Chinese assistant, and marriage issues are also on the list. PT's first plan is to purchase 100 low-priced family luxury yachts in China as soon as possible, which is urgently needed by the tourism market in Country X.

BR's father is a grain and oil giant in country X, and they produce 60% of the edible oil supplied in the country's market. BR, 36 years old, unmarried, just took over as the general manager of his father's group company this year, and wants to find an account manager in order to expand the Chinese market, and marriage issues are also under consideration.

Both PT and BR unanimously recognized the power of "beauty diplomacy", and both carefully planned tonight's special invitation, whether it was business development or personal issues......

PT and BR's parents have come to China many times, and have a long time of living in China, they love China very much, have a lot of research on Chinese culture, when PT and BR were not born, they plan to send their children to China for development in the future, they pay attention to PT and BR from an early age to carry out a solid Chinese basic education, both families have specially hired full-time Chinese teachers from China, the curriculum includes all Chinese teaching content from primary school to university in China.

At this time, the background music of the bar was deliberately changed to a solo piece "Confession in the Moonlight" composed and performed by pianist BR, the music mood is full of strong artistic appeal, as if bringing people to a dreamlike situation, the rhythm is bright and smooth to tell their pursuit of love, sometimes passionate and unrestrained, sometimes gentle and lingering......

PT and BR took turns to toast Yali and Haiyan, and Yali and Haiyan cooperated very well today, and came up with a lot of rules for drinking, and every game rule is PT and BR who drink, and if you lose to a beautiful woman, of course, you have to drink with the courage of a manly man, and you can't even afford to lose wine, isn't it too embarrassing......

Next, Yali proposed to add a new content to the rules of the game: whoever loses must first recite a Chinese Tang poem or Song Ci, and then drink, otherwise the penalty will be doubled, Haiyan knows that Yali wants to set up a difficult situation to let PT and BR drink more, and echoed and agreed, but, much to Yali's and Haiyan's surprise, PT and BR shouted in unison after hearing Yali's proposal: "Agreed!" ”

PT and BR have been teaching one-on-one with full-time Chinese teachers at home for many years, and their current Chinese proficiency is equivalent to that of Chinese university Chinese graduates, and Chinese Tang poems and Song lyrics are literary works that they have learned to memorize since childhood, and they can memorize the widely circulated masterpieces, and they are full of confidence in this.

PT lost the first level of the third round of the game, and he did not hesitate to recite the poem "The Wanderer's Yin" by Meng Jiao in the Tang Dynasty very smoothly: the line in the mother's hand, and the wanderer's shirt. Before leaving, I am afraid that I will return late. Whoever says an inch is careless, and he will be rewarded with three springs.

After PT routinely drank, he did not pass the second level of BR, and he immediately recited Zhang Jiuling's poem "Looking at the Moon and Huaiyuan" in the Tang Dynasty: The bright moon is born on the sea, and the end of the world is at this time. The lover complains about the night, and he is lovesick at night. The candles are extinguished, and the light is full, and the clothes are dewed. It's unbearable to give away, and it's a good time to sleep.

BR laughed and raised his glass after reciting the forty Chinese characters of "Mochizuki Huaiyuan" in one go.

Yali and Haiyan were very surprised to watch PT and BR recite poems and drink, and secretly admired in their hearts that these two foreign friends had learned Chinese very well, recited Tang poems accurately, and had a very good grasp of the tone and frustration.

PT and BR were drinking, while looking at Yali and Haiyan, and they repeatedly cast praise and reverence for the outstanding beauty and elegant temperament of these two young oriental singers, they were secretly glad in their hearts for the adventure of performing in the XWY Islands, and they all thought that this time they could hire Yali and Haiyan according to the plan is really God to help me, this must be God's reward for our love for China and painstaking study of Chinese culture, whether it is image or temperament, whether it is cultural level or knowledge structure, It is the standard they dream of, and these two famous artists are so happy that they can't keep their mouths together, and the more they drink, the more excited they become, the more they drink, the more energetic they become, and they have the intention of getting drunk and resting......

Yali and Haiyan are playing a drinking game while thinking about their plans. Yali introduced Chen Weishan's novel "Maple Leaves Are Red" to PT and asked him if he could translate it into English for publication, and PT agreed on the spot to arrange for translation and publication immediately, and distributed 500,000 copies worldwide for the first time. Haiyan agreed on the spot to provide PT with 100 family luxury yachts at below-market prices, on the condition that a 30% deposit must be paid in advance, and that they can be built according to PT's design requirements and delivered on time. At the same time, Haiyan also ordered 200,000 barrels of Grade A edible peanut oil to BR* on the spot, on the condition that it was fully in accordance with the buyer's purchase plan and that the goods were paid on delivery. Regarding the issue of employment, Yali and Haiyan have the same caliber, and they are currently working part-time for the time being, and will discuss after graduation.

Yali and Haiyan are killing multiple birds with one stone today.

After the XWY performance, PT immediately organized the third editorial department of their publishing house to quickly translate Chen Weishan's novel "Maple Leaf Red" into English, and then published 500,000 copies. Chen Weishan received a total of 5.63 million yuan in basic remuneration and print retention, and the economic situation of Zhao Yali and Chen Weishan immediately changed dramatically......

Zhao Yali and Chen Weishan built a two-unit red brick and red tile three-story building on the Liuhe River in Taohua Village, each of the two families lives in one unit, the main building is south-facing, each unit has three rooms, and two two-story matching rooms are erected on the east and west sides, which are connected to the main building of the two units, and the two units can be separated from each other, and can be connected to each other and take care of each other......

Haiyan has made a great start for her company. Just when Haiyan participated in the Young Singer TV Star Contest, her father personally registered "Donghai Haiyan International Trade Co., Ltd." for her. In order to avoid the opposition of Haiyan's stepmother, he discussed with his old comrades-in-arms and transferred the 3 million yuan he had lent to his old comrades-in-arms before marrying Haiyan's stepmother to Haiyan's account, and then used the money as registered capital to register a company for Haiyan to let her show her talents.

The opportunity to perform in the XWY Islands suddenly appeared this time, and through Haiyan's wisdom, she really made a lot of money.

First of all, Donghai Haiyan International Trade Co., Ltd. signed a contract with PT's travel company for the supply of 100 family luxury yachts, with a total transaction value of 36.8 million yuan. Within a week after signing the contract, PT remitted 30% of the deposit of 11.04 million yuan for the purchase of the yacht to the account of Haiyan International Trade Co., Ltd. according to the contract.

Haiyan International Trading Co., Ltd. also signed a contract with BR's group company for the purchase of 200,000 barrels of Grade A edible peanut oil, with a total transaction value of RMB 10.5 million. According to the contract, BR's group company completed a one-time supply, and Haiyan International Trading Co., Ltd. paid in full for the purchase of peanut oil with the yacht deposit remitted by PT Travel.

Subsequently, Haiyan International Trade Co., Ltd. signed a contract with Hongye Group to purchase 100 family luxury yachts, with a total transaction value of 24.6 million yuan. The two parties agreed that Haiyan International Trade Co., Ltd. would provide 200,000 barrels of A-grade edible peanut oil to the Hongye Group supermarket chain as the deposit collateral for the yacht, and when the yacht was delivered, Haiyan International Trade Co., Ltd. would deduct the peanut oil payment of RMB 13.82 million from the total payment of the yacht, and pay the rest in one lump sum.

In the transaction of yachts and peanut oil, Haiyan skillfully used its own unique information resources and connections, took advantage of the time difference and price difference, and took advantage of the organic combination of their respective needs, without using a penny of its own company, and easily and reasonably and legally made a profit of 15.52 million yuan for the company.
