What's more, I heard that it is related to investment and construction of factories in China, which can be regarded as linked to the counselor's work.

Naturally, the counselor couldn't resist, so he readily assigned two embassy staff to serve as their temporary attachés.

Even though they are all women, they are extremely professional in their respective fields of work.

This translator is a master's student who graduated from Beijing Foreign Studies University, and his assistant is also a service staff member selected by the Great Hall of the People.

Okay, this is great, the style of Ning Weimin and his team immediately improved.

The meeting with the Japanese side was so honorable and smooth.

Not only was the Japanese translated by Zou Guodong, but the speed of speech and the way of expression were generous and dignified, showing a solemn official style.

Even the service provided by the assistant to Zou Guodong was unhurried and comprehensive.

You know, the service level of the service staff who have participated in three state banquets is not something that ordinary people can compare with if they take a closer look.

Temperaments, thoughts, reactions, and improvised measures are all completely different.

Without bragging, in Ning Weimin's eyes, their contact with the Japanese was a completely unequal meeting.

Although the Japanese side is rich and powerful and takes advantage of its owners, it behaves like an arrogant rich man.

But in China's official atmosphere, which is like a diplomatic occasion, this kind of arrogance becomes more and more vulgar and worthless.

As a result, Japan soon lost control of its rhythm and aura.

Especially after the belated appearance of President Hidehiro Hasegawa, Zou Guodong began to speak on behalf of Huaxia Company through an interpreter, and the signing of the contract began to be substantively advanced. The Japanese side was almost completely led by the Chinese side.

Hidehiro Hasegawa of Japan, who was deliberately late, soon noticed the embarrassment of being disrespectful and something was wrong with the atmosphere.

So I had to take advantage of the situation to express my apology, and my attitude was lowered a lot, and the reception standards were also raised.

But the final result was a happy ending with a very cooperative atmosphere.

Before signing the contract, the Japanese side also took the initiative to send valuable gifts to Zou Guodong's residence.

And in Ginza's Plum Village, it's a pretty high-end restaurant.

President Hidehiro Hasegawa and Vice President Takada came forward to officially clean up Zou Guodong.

In this way, the major cooperation between Huaxia Company and Japan's Pierre Cardon Co., Ltd., with a total price of more than 2 billion yen, was settled without any risk.

It should be said that the two staff members of the Embassy in Japan were indeed very helpful and played a significant role in promoting this.

But the problem is that after the matter was completed, the commercial counselor of the embassy roughly understood the contents of the cooperation contract.

Doubts can't help but arise regarding the huge disparity in shareholding between Pierre Cardon China and Japan.

So I specifically asked them why they agreed to such extremely unfair cooperation conditions.

Regarding this matter, Ning Weimin responded like this.

"Boss, I was the one who facilitated this matter. I can explain it to you. Needless to say, Japan's greed is obvious. They want our company to do things for them, but they are unwilling to give too many benefits, and they are still unwilling to do so.

Concession. This is a typical example of landlords doing business with poor people. It is both arrogant and bullying. From the perspective of our company, although the profits are not as high as those of Japanese companies, it will not make life difficult. Of course, we can refuse. But

From a business point of view, it is not worthwhile to refuse. Because if you say 'no', there will be no benefit. Since it is a good and beneficial thing, why not agree?"

Hearing this, the counselor couldn't help but interject and ask.

"Then you are willing to let others lead you by the nose? Just for this little profit?"

Ning Weimin smiled.

"Boss, are you testing me? Then I have to ask you a lesson. In order to attract investment in our country's reform and opening up, we do not hesitate to tax exemptions, give away land for free, and also attract foreign investors to invest. So what is it for? Many accounts are not like that

Forget it, right?"

After a pause, Ning Weimin continued to explain his point of view with admiration.

"At this point, I particularly admire the country's foresight. It does not care about temporary gains and losses, but puts interests in the long run. Even if there are no plane trees now, it can still attract phoenixes. In fact, there is a similar saying in shopping malls, called Er

The Eight Rules. It roughly means that you should give 80% of the benefits to your partners and get 20% for yourself. Only then can this relationship be maintained for a long time, which is a virtuous circle."

"And to tell you the truth, the most thorough way to describe this kind of thing is to use the words of the elderly in my family. My uncle always taught me in the past, saying that it is rare to be confused, and people are willing to suffer small losses to take advantage. When doing business,

The biggest taboo of people is that they must not be afraid of others making money. Since we are partners, we are a community of interests. It is a good thing for others to make money. If you don't care, you are happy for others. They will be willing to take you to play. And others earn

The more you earn, the more money you get. The money is yours only if it is in your pocket. If on the other hand, you are too shrewd and no one is willing to cooperate with you. Or if your partners can’t make any money, then you

That’s terrible! Is there anything good left?”

"To put it bluntly, you have to have the cake before you can share the profits. And when the cake is big enough, maybe everyone can eat it. But on the other hand, if there is no cooperation, there is nothing. Even hope is gone.

Even when people are mixing in society, it is the same. The people I know are living well, so I can do well myself. If everyone around me is not as good as me, then how can I maintain my standout status? Then again

Good days are also very limited. So in life, the most fearful thing is to have pink eye, and you will never see others who are better than you."

After saying these words, everyone present was delighted.

It was from this that Zou Guodong seemed to understand Ning Weimin's thoughts.

The Commercial Counselor even couldn't help but praise it.

"That's very well said. This elder of yours is a really understanding person. Xiao Ning, I think your future is very bright..."

But it's not over yet.

When Ning Weimin and Zou Guodong left the embassy, ​​they were alone together.

Zou Guodong wanted to take off the watch from his hand and give it back to Ning Weimin so that he could return it.

This was planned from the beginning, to temporarily buy a watch to increase the appearance.

However, to Zou Guodong's surprise, Ning Weimin actually refused.

Then he said to him generously, "Just wear it. In fact, I didn't want to return it when I bought it. I just bought it as a gift to you."

"What? This is a watch worth tens of thousands!" Zou Guodong was completely confused.

"Don't be impatient, and don't misunderstand me. I don't want to bribe you, but I just feel sorry for you. Frankly speaking, the ideas I gave you are not just good ones without side effects."

Ning Weimin said sincerely, "As the old saying goes, the first bird is the first to be shot. As the scale of the company grows day by day, in the future our company will no longer want to be ignored and develop smoothly, and we will do our own thing behind closed doors."

It's probably impossible. Just like today, the government will pay more and more attention to us, and will make new weighings because of the speed of our growth. No enterprise, especially foreign investment, joint ventures will be allowed in China.

Companies monopolize the market at rocket speed and eventually become a dominant player. As long as all parties 'care' about our company, a lot of things will happen."

"As for the pressures that need to be faced and the problems that need to be solved in the country, it will all be borne by Mr. Song and you from now on. As for me, I'm sorry, I became a deserter and took the initiative to avoid this responsibility. And in the future I will borrow

I will continue to get more and more benefits and benefits by relying on the big tree of the company to provide shade and shelter. In the future, once the trolley suitcases are mass-produced and launched into the global market, I will own 30% of the shares of Yi La De Company.

It will bring me countless wealth. I can't take advantage and act like a good boy. If I don't express my dislike to you face to face, I won't be able to feel at ease. Thank you very much, Mr. Zou, but don't hate me. What about the head office?

Please just worry more. I can't help you and make you suffer..."

Zou Guodong was completely speechless.

Only then did he remember the difference between East and West.
Chapter completed!
