Breaking through the initial obstacles, Feng Xiaochen and Gajan's communication became smoother.Gejan promised to immediately help Feng Xiaochen to contact a local consulting company in Avare, which of course had nothing to do with Vice Minister Gejan, who was purely due to the Sino-Arab friendship and the need for hot rolling mill projects.Feng Xiaochen expressed his sincere gratitude to Minister Gajan, and proposed to give a number of gifts to Minister Gajan to thank him, Gejan naturally refused very seriously, in exchange for Feng Xiaochen's high praise for his official and personal character.

Next, the two sides discussed matters related to further cooperation, Gejan said that he has a strong favorable view of China, and has always had great trust in China's industrial technology, and hopes that the two sides can cooperate in a wider range of fields.For the previous stage of hot-mill negotiations, Gejan claimed that he had learned the details of the Chinese offer, expressed understanding of the price quoted by the Chinese side, and was willing to give up the previous request that China must reduce the price by 15%.

“Is this so easy?”

When Feng Xiaochen returned to the reinstallation office with the results of the talks with Gajan, Luo Xiangfei opened his eyes in surprise and asked Feng Zhichen.

Feng Xiaochen replied with a smile: "It was a very simple thing, but everyone is not willing to take responsibility, so this thing has been delayed to today."

“Let Gejan recommend a consulting firm, and we will enter the company in the name of consulting fees.Would there be anything wrong with this operation?”Luo Xiangfei asked for proof.

Feng Xiaochen said: "There is a flaw that is also the flaw in Gaijan's side, which is completely reasonable for us."For such a large project, it is necessary to hire a consulting company in advance to provide some consulting services, which also reflects the importance we attach to the Avare hot-fringer project.Whether the consulting firm is suspected of paying bribes to Gejan has nothing to do with us.”

Luo Xiangfei said, "This is not a good thing, I always feel that we are in Lagaijan water."

Feng Xiaochen smiled, “Director Luo, don’t worry about Guyan.”With his character, we will not pull, he will jump into the water himself.Moreover, if he is really that kind of incorruptible official, he can completely disengage the consulting firm and not let the consulting company convey its interests to him.”

“That’s right.”Luo Xiang nodded, then asked: "Why do you want him to contact other African countries, this is also a negotiation strategy of yours?"

“No.”Feng Xiaochen shook his head, "I sincerely hope that he can introduce us to more business."In addition to hot-robed mills, other technologies we are now introducing also need to find users.Isn’t it normal that we get technology from developed countries and then sell it to developing countries?”

Luo Xiangfei said, “Do you think Gajan has this ability?”

Feng Xiaochen said, “I am not sure that Gajan has this ability, but he is a seed we sowed.”In the future, if we have the opportunity, we will sow more seeds, and there will always be some seeds that take root and germinate.Sooner or later, we have to develop the African market, and we need to be proactive and prepare early.”

Luo Xiangfei looked at Feng Xiaochen and said, "I really don't understand you more and more, you look farther than others at any time."We're still catching up with the world's advanced level, but you're already thinking about global expansion."

"No one has any worries, it must be a concern."Feng Xiaochen said with a smile.

Gejan's attitude took a 180-degree turn, and the hot rolling machine negotiations of Batim Steel Plant turned around and dark.Tian Wenjian, Gong Zhenxing and others did not ask Feng Xiaochen whether there was a certain agreement between him and Gajan, the less people have always known the better, and they themselves are unwilling to touch this kind of thing, so as to avoid affecting themselves when there is any problem in the future.The king's foundation is tangle with Feng Xiaochen not asking him to talk about how to attack the details of Gajan, Feng Xiaochen is naturally also a bottle of silence, so that Wang's foundation is disappointed.

"Chu, you will be more busy in the future, Nanjiang Iron and Steel Plant's 1780 mm hot rolling mill supporting, plus Avare's 1700 mm hot rolling mill, but are hard bones, you must not break your teeth."

After the successful conclusion of the negotiations, Gejan, Gandal and others left China, Xu Wenliang and Cui Yongfeng and his party were also ready to leave Beijing and return to Qinzhou.Before leaving, Feng Xiaochen came to the guest house to send them away, laughing and joking with them.

Xu Wenliang held Feng Zhichen's hand, filled his face with emotion, and said, "Feng Director, Avare project can be achieved, thanks to you."

"Xu's work said, I actually did not do anything, in fact, another person to negotiate with Gajan, the same can be effective."Feng Xiaochen said modestly.

Xu Wenliang shook his head and said, "Chief Feng, I am not talking about Gajan, but the whole process."Think about it, if you did not go to our Qin to inspect and solve our understanding problems, how can we put down the burden to learn international advanced experience?If it is not the idea you have given us, how can we propose those new patents for the mill?If there were no new patents, what would we do to exchange their design patents?

The success of this Avare project is largely due to the fact that we have used the technology provided by Sanli to bring our mill design level to the international advanced level in the late 1970s.If we were still left to design with the technology we learned from the Soviet Union in the 1950s, Avare would not have accepted it.”

Feng Xiaochen said: "This credit can not be counted on my head, I heard that you have been studying in the Sanli company for a few months, but also participated in their rolling mill design work, the benefits are quite rich, these are the result of your own efforts ah."

Cui Yongfeng interjected, “Indeed, in the past few months, we really opened our eyes.”If it is not personally involved in their design process, we simply can not imagine that others have gone so far, their technical level is naturally needless to say, even their organizational processes in the design of the product, are much more advanced than we are.

"What's advanced, let's learn."Feng Xiaochen said, "Just take advantage of Avare's project to practice and see how much we have learned."

“Yes, we think so too.In fact, it does not matter how much money the Avare project can make.We have mastered the technology of the design and manufacturing of the mill, and we will no longer have to look at the face of the people."Cui Yongfeng said with great pride.

Xu Wenliang said, “Yes, today, Mr. Feng came over, and I just took this opportunity to say one thing.”Yongfeng, this Avare project, I plan to the factory, you as the chief designer, can you pick it up?”

“What?”Cui Yongfeng was surprised, “Teacher Xu, how can this be done?”Of course, this project has to be chosen by you.”

He shook his head and said, “I can’t.I felt like I wasn’t enough to take on such a big task.Last year to learn, for the three technology, I am not as well as you master.So, I suggest that you be the master, and I'll be an assistant."

Cui Yongfeng even waved his hand and said, “Teacher, this is absolutely not possible.It doesn't matter if you are old, you will give us the general work, you just have to check it in general.Besides, have you always had a desire to design a hot-robed production line?This is a rare opportunity.”

Xu Wenliang patted Cui Yongfeng on the shoulder and said, “The waves behind the Yangtze River are pushing forward, and sooner or later our generation will have to shift.”While I still have some energy, I can give you a check, some places to remind you, you can let go of it.As for designing a production line with my own hands, this wish can be fulfilled in your hands, and I am satisfied.”

"Mr. Cui, since the master worker has this meaning, you can accept his arrangement."Feng Xiaochen was next to persuade, and from Xu Wenliang's words, he could feel the good intentions of the old engineer.He recalled that more than a year ago, he was in Qin and Xu Wenliang's exchange, which was also very sad.At that time, Xu Wenliang was so attached to the ideal of personally designing a hot-buted production line, and he and Wang Jian used the Avare project as a temptation to mobilize his enthusiasm.Now, the Avare project has been signed, soon to start a comprehensive design, but Xu Wenliang bravely retreated, pushed Cui Yongfeng to the front, but also the opportunity to leave the name of this youth history, gave Cui Yongfeng.

The reason is that on the one hand, it is indeed because the design of a new production line requires a lot of effort, Xu Wenliang has been difficult to bear, on the other hand, Xu Wenliang knows that Qin He will undertake more hot rolling mill orders in the future, using the opportunity of the Avare project, so that Cui Yongfeng can grow rapidly, which is the most beneficial for Qin Heng.Between the individual's ideals, reputation and the long-term interests of the state and the enterprise, Xu Wenliang chose the latter, which is the consciousness of an old engineer.

"Teacher..." Cui Yongfeng also understood Xu Wenliang's intention, he did not know what to say for a while, just looked at Xu Wenliang, feeling mixed.

“What are you doing here?”Xu Wenliang had a relaxed color, "I just think I can't put the old bone together."You think about it, Nanjiang Iron and Steel Factory hot rolling machine supporting, the head is also very much, if you add Avare hot rolling mill, I have to lie down.It doesn’t matter if you’re rich and hard-working.I'm a lazy, as an advisor, it's good.When Avare is completed, I should officially retire, go home to raise flowers, bring small grandchildren, these hard work, will be handed over to you.You are my student, don't embarrass me."

"Don't worry, I won't embarrass you."He solemnly promised.
