Chapter 488:Gai Zhan's Ambition

“We all know that.”

Gejan replied, “My colleagues and I admire your Chinese technology and the professionalism of the workers, and that’s enough.”As for the text on the banner, we mainly take into account the needs of the people who participated in the celebration, in Avare, there are very few people who know Chinese, even if they are written in Chinese, no one can understand it.”

Feng Xiaochen smiled and asked, “Then, Minister Gajan, do you understand Chinese?”

"I don't understand."Gajan answered very directly.

Feng Xiaochen took a Chinese document out of his bag and handed it to Gejan, asking, “So, do you know what the text is written in this book?”

Gajan glanced at him and said, "This is Chinese, of course I know."

“Isn’t that okay?”Feng Xiaochen smiled, “I don’t need guests to know what’s written on the banner, I just need to know what’s written on it in Chinese.”In addition, the banners you are currently hanging out do not say that this production line was built by Chinese companies, which is a mistake.I suggest that you change the content of the banner to: Warmly congratulate the Batin steel plant on the introduction of China's 1700 mm hot-milled machine into production, I think this content is more accurate."

Guyjan understood, he asked, “Mr. Feng, you mean that you want guests to be able to notice the provider of the equipment, or that you want to use the celebration as an advertisement for your Chinese company.”

"You understand this very well."Feng Xiaochen praised Gajan, but Gajan did not feel comfortable when he heard it in his ears.He was also a minister of industry, and he was twice as old as Feng Xiaochen, who praised Feng Xiaochen, as if a primary school teacher were praising his students.

“But, Mr. Feng, does that seem to be too prominent in your country?”“This is, after all, the activity of our Republic of Avare, and we will invite your officials and chief engineers to take a seat on the podium, but I do not think it is necessary to say that even the banners have been changed to your national script.”

Feng Zhichen shook his head and said, “No, on the contrary, Minister Gejan, I think this is very important.”I can say that the implementation of this project at the Batin steel plant, we do not have much profit, especially after we paid the high cost of technical consultation, especially since we have paid the high cost of technical consultation.

At this point, he paused for a moment and handed Gejan a deep look.Gaijan only felt that the body was excited, and of course he could hear what Feng Xiaochen's hint was, because the high consulting fees mentioned by Feng Xiaochen were precisely into Gajan's own pocket.Feng Xiaochen's meaning is very clear, if you take our money, you have to work for us, otherwise...

In fact, Gaijan also knows that Feng Xiaochen's words are nonsense, the money paid by the Chinese side in the name of technical consultation to Gajan, but the district of more than 300,000 US dollars, compared to the price of a hot-buted production line, is a small fraction, it is not a high.The fee was paid to a consulting firm that was recommended by Gejan, ostensibly a relative of Gejan, and the actual owner was Gejan himself.This kind of bribery is not rare in international trade, but Gaijan is an honest person, the psychological quality is not so good, take the money always feel a little unsteady, so it will be frightened by Feng Xiaochen's suggestion.

"Mr. Feng, I think..." Gajanqiu picked up, he wanted to find a suitable reason to pick up Feng Xiaochen, and he could not find it for a while.

Feng Xiaochen interrupted him and continued: "Minister Gayjan, I pointed this point, just to illustrate a problem.We in China regard this project of the Batin steel plant as an attempt to open up the market in Africa, and we hope that through this project, African countries will realize China's technological strength and then be willing to introduce technology from China.If Chinese technology cannot be highlighted at this celebration, then our efforts in the early stage are in vain.”

"I can understand that."“But if we put too much emphasis on China’s role in this matter, the importance of our cabinet is diluted, and I think our prime minister will be unhappy.”

“I have heard that your term as Prime Minister is almost complete, does Minister Gajan need to care so much about what he thinks?”Feng Xiaochen said with a smile, "In fact, I think that Minister Gajan yourself has the potential to become Prime Minister, and if you can become the new Prime Minister of Avare, I think the cooperation between us will certainly be more pleasant."

As soon as Feng Xiaochen's words were exported, Gajan was scared and pale, and he looked around and found that no one paid attention to them, so he was a little relieved.He lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Feng, you can't say anything casually, I'm just a government minister, how dare I cove the position of prime minister."

“Why not?”Feng Xiaochen said, "If Minister Gajan has more performance, if you can get the broad support of officials from neighboring countries, and you have enough funds to operate this matter..."

Gajan only felt that he jumped up with his heart, but did not, a minister who did not want to be prime minister was not a good minister, Gajan thought to himself that he was a good minister with ideals and aspirations, so why couldn't he become the new prime minister of Avare?Speaking of performance, in fact, the newly completed hot rolling production line of the Batin steel plant is the performance of Gajan.If he can build more construction projects, then his performance will be even more brilliant.As for the support of officials from neighboring countries, this is something that Gayjan does not understand.

“Mr. Gejan, I think you should emphasize at tomorrow’s celebration that the production of this production line is the result of the close cooperation between Avare and China, and who else can make this cooperation possible except for your Minister Géjan?”After tomorrow's celebration, I hope that you will be able to create an opportunity for officials from other countries who can come forward to introduce China's industrial equipment, and once they have formed a cooperation with China through Minister Gejan's introduction, they will certainly thank you."Feng Xiaochen poured fascination soup for Gajan.

“However, if these countries need industrial equipment, they will certainly prioritize procurement from European companies.”Gajan reminded.

Feng Xiaochen said, “I’m afraid not necessarily, is it?Think about it, Minister Gejan, why did you Avare finally choose to introduce this production line from China?”

“That’s because...” Gujan did not say the following words, he quickly pondered the reasons for Avare to introduce the production line from China, which has political considerations, that is, through such cooperation, China's support for Avare in international politics, but also economic considerations, that is, China's production line is indeed much cheaper than the West, which is very important for a country such as Avare, which is also very important for a country that is not economically rich.

Do your neighbors think the same way?Gajan felt that his brain was not enough, perhaps Feng Xiaochen said it was right, right?

Feng Xiaochen went on to say: "Minister Gayjan, this is the purpose of my colleagues and I have made a special trip to Avare, hoping to get the support of Minister Gaijan."By the way, if we can have other cooperation with Avaré or your neighbors, we still need local consulting firms to provide consulting services for us.I think the consulting company's services are very good, and for myself there is a tendency to continue working with it.”

"If that's the case, then I'll thank Mr. Von for Elman."Gajan grinned.The last words of Feng Xiaochen are the most crucial for Gajan.The Ehrman he spoke was the distant relative who managed the consulting firm for Gejan.Feng Zhichen's meaning is very clear, if Gajan can help China sell more equipment, then he can get more "consultation fees."Feng Xiaochen has just pointed out that if Gajan wants to compete for the position of the prime minister, in addition to performance and word of mouth, there is also need to have funds, and these "advisory fees" are the source of funds for Gajan.

Can the Chinese sell more equipment?Gajan calculated in his mind that there was still some hope.Batin steel plant this production line, in addition to the advantages of the price, performance and quality also gave Gajan a lot of surprises, he believes that his neighbors of his peers should also be interested in Chinese equipment.If the Chinese sell equipment, they can get the benefits themselves, and what they need to do is just to help the Chinese show their faces.This production line was originally built by the Chinese, in the publicity to give them a little weight, who can say what?

Thinking of this, Gajan relaxed, he smiled and said to Feng Xiaochen: "Mr. Feng, I admit that the banner is a negligence, I will arrange it immediately."And, in the press release of tomorrow's celebration, I will also make some changes that will certainly highlight your country's contribution to this project."

“Then I would like to express my gratitude to Minister Gejan on behalf of the factory.”Feng Xiaochen responded.

The wild hope in Gajan's heart was pulled up by Feng Xiaochen, and a small fire burned him with a blushing, and he ran with such a base to find someone to work.In fact, it is not difficult to re-pull a few banners, and the Prime Minister will not be unhappy because of this matter, this kind of self-interested thing, what need to refuse Gajan?

"Xi Feng, what did you say to the old man, how do I think he was very happy?"The king came forward and asked Feng Xiaochen.

Feng Xiaochen said, "I painted him a cake, he thought it tasted good, so he was happy to blossom."

Wang Jian smiled, “Haha, if he knew that every time Xiao Feng painted cakes, he was actually digging a hole for people, he would not be so happy?”

Feng Xiaochen put on a serious face and said, “Old Wang, how can you denigrate my image like this?”I tell you, Lao Gai has promised to sell equipment for us, you quickly and prepare with Director Wu, see how to paint cakes for the guests of so many countries."
