Siheyuan diet for men and women

Chapter 909: Integrity
"What are you talking about~!"

"Hee hee~"

Qin Huairu and another person were talking at the front desk when they were suddenly startled by a voice behind them.

When she turned around to look, she saw Feng Juan smiling proudly.

"Ah~ You scared me~"

She patted the playful Feng Juan lightly and said angrily, "Why did you come from behind?"

"I went to the kitchen~"

Feng Juan explained with a smile: "I was just talking about it. Chef Qian from the kitchen was looking for you just now and asked if you wanted to order pig's trotters."

"Go ahead, why not?"

Zhang Songying continued: "Hasn't the menu been ordered?"

“It’s not convenient to eat”

Feng Juan looked at her again and said, "Master Qian said that the size of the meal doesn't matter, we can just eat it with our hands. But if we really entertain foreign businessmen, will we..."

"Hey, don't worry about that."

Zhang Songying took Qin Huairu's arm and said to Feng Juan, "It's good enough to give them something to eat. Why would you choose?"

"If you ask me, little devil..."

"Shh~!"

Hearing her speaking without restraint, Qin Huairu glared at her to scare her, then signaled to the foreign affairs personnel standing at the door.

Zhang Songying also knew that she had said the wrong thing, so she covered her mouth and laughed secretly, looking quite embarrassed.

Feng Juan understood her, and leaned closer and whispered, "Master Guo was just muttering about adding some rat poison to avenge his father's tragic death."

"Don't talk nonsense~"

Qin Huairu was also helpless and tired. These two were more restless than each other, and both wanted to kill the Japanese businessmen who came today.

It's not just them, it's also the kitchen and the waiters. It's only been a few years, and every family has some national hatred or family feud.

Do you think the people who came today are peace-loving?
But in everyone's perception, there are no good people among the little devils, and it would be better if they all died.

Otherwise, the security team of the steel rolling mill and the guesthouse would be on high alert today, fearing that someone would cause trouble.

That morning, when the foreign businessmen's convoy entered the steel rolling mill under the arrangement of the Security Section and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, some people stopped to watch.

Some of those who were more emotionally agitated were taken away by the security team before they could do anything violent.

No one says it's not okay to do this, and no one says revenge is not okay, but it's not possible today.

He was invited by the steel mill to come, to give money, and he came wearing a suit.

When it comes to revenge, Li Xuewu, wearing a green uniform, dares to fight to the death with any invading enemy on the battlefield.

But once he puts on a suit and goes to the shopping mall, Li Xuewu will fight in a different way.

The most common perception in this world is that force can never solve a problem; it is just an excuse for you to solve the problem.

Han Yating walked in from outside. Because of her figure, she was not wearing a uniform, but a loose-fitting casual dress.

"What about the meeting?~"

She was already very familiar with the guesthouse, and she often saw the newcomer Feng Juan in the finance office.

Seeing her coming over to say hello, the three of them responded enthusiastically.

"How many months?"

"You don't look pregnant, you need to pay attention to your nutrition~"

"Are you tired of being pregnant?"

……

Women, especially married women, always have something to talk about when they get together.

If one of them is pregnant, then as someone who has had experience, they will take the initiative to share their experiences.

The meeting had already begun, the most dangerous moment had passed, and during this slightly relaxed moment, several women relaxed first.

“Actually, I’m a bit tired.”

Han Yating stroked her belly with her hand, smiling with some relief, and said helplessly: "I suddenly felt my heartbeat here, it was a very wonderful feeling."

"This is called mother-child connection~"

Qin Huairu said with a smile: "Just wait, when he grows up, he will know how to play with you."

"Can this still happen?"

Feng Juan, who is not married yet, and Zhang Songying, who is married but has no chance of getting pregnant, both looked at Han Yating's belly with amazement.

Han Yating felt a little embarrassed by the stares from the three men and didn't know what to do with her hands.

Qin Huairu explained: "When it was in the belly, it was not well behaved. It kicked and kicked, and even rolled around for fun."

"Then... how do you play in the stomach?"

Feng Juan reached out and touched Han Yating's belly, as if she could feel the fetus moving.

Han Yating is also a first-time mother. Although she is a little shy, she still wants to know more about pregnancy.

Qin Huairu has a lot to say in this regard, after all, she has given birth to three children.

"Whatever you have, play it~"

Qin Huairu pointed to Han Yating's belly and said with a smile: "When the baby is still young, he can do somersaults and play with the umbilical cord. After entering the pelvis, he can be a little more obedient, but his feet will still kick around."

She also put her hand on Han Yating's belly and gestured: "When the time comes, you will find that your belly will swell up when he kicks you, and you can even judge his left and right position."

“It’s amazing~”

Feng Juan widened her eyes and stared at Han Yating's belly as if she could see through it. She really wanted to see the fetus inside.

Han Yating said to Feng Juan with a motherly smile: "Find a partner as soon as possible, and then you will be like me."

"I'm just curious~"

When Feng Juan heard the topic of finding a partner, she couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.

But we are all women here, she said, but the desire in her eyes was still visible.

That’s how it is at this time, everyone is a little anxious.

In a hurry to grow up, in a hurry to go to work, in a hurry to get married, in a hurry to have children, in a hurry to raise the children, in a hurry to retire, but never in a hurry to die.

You see, when they were in elementary school, they were thinking about what they would do when they grew up.

Either to serve the country, or to make a name for oneself, or to take revenge.

When they entered middle school and began to think about life a little, faced with the choice of going to high school, taking the college entrance examination, or going to a technical secondary school to work, most of them chose a technical secondary school.

Because it takes several more years to go to high school, take the college entrance examination and then be assigned a job than to go directly to a technical secondary school and be assigned a job.

How much would the extra time be converted into wages? If a family has several children, if one of them starts earning money early, it will reduce a lot of burden on the parents and the family.

When they just started working, their parents began to worry about them. For example, for someone like Feng Juan, if she didn't get married within three years of working, the neighbors might gossip about her.

Is it because I have too high standards, am I a bad person, am I not popular in the workplace, etc.

You see, even if you don’t want to get married or haven’t found the right person yet, not only will the organization arrange social gatherings for you, but your family will also urge you to go on blind dates every day.

You finally found someone who is similar, and you just got married. Well, you have double the number of parents-in-law, who urge you to have children.

When children are born, you are urged to raise them more. But by the time you have raised the children, you start to have no energy to live and work.

What should I do?
I'm looking forward to retirement, when I don't have to work at all and can just sit at home every day waiting to receive my pension.

This is life, a life that is pushed around by society and inexplicable relationships.

Feng Juan was in a stage where she was under attack from all sides, and she was a little sensitive to Han Yating's casual words.

Seeing that she stopped talking and Zhang Songying was also silent, Qin Huairu could only take over the conversation herself.

"Have you told your boss when you're going to take a break?"

She pulled Han Yating's hand, felt the temperature in her hand, and said, "This is just right now, just don't let it get cold, and be careful not to fall or get hurt."

"I'm fine, it feels a lot hotter than usual this year"

Han Yating said: "Maybe we have to wait a little longer. My leader also told me to be prepared, but the specific time has not been determined yet."

"Then he has made arrangements, you don't have to worry."

Qin Huairu nodded and said: "After pregnancy, it's the heartbeat of two people, so the body will be warm, and the palms will be even warmer."

As he spoke, he squeezed her hand and reminded her: "Even if it's not cold, don't catch a cold. Getting sick during pregnancy is no small matter. Even a little bit of a cold is not worth it."

"Got it~"

Han Yating glanced at the direction of the stairs and asked, "How many residents are there upstairs? There haven't been any new residents since the day before yesterday, right?"

"No, a few have left in the past few days. We have already reported them to the security team, and the rest have also been notified and warned."

Qin Huairu replied: "After receiving the notice, we will no longer accept new invitations. We will wait for the notice from the External Affairs Office."

"That's good"

Han Yating nodded and said, "The security department's assistants are all young men. They still need our service staff to help them with communication and avoid conflicts."

As she spoke, she pointed in the direction of Tuanjie Lake outside the door and said, "The entire area will be cordoned off today, including the windows facing this side, so it's best to draw the curtains."

After saying that, she looked at Qin Huairu and explained: "There will always be someone downstairs staring at the windows upstairs. Don't do anything abnormal, let alone anything extreme."

"I see"

Qin Huairu glanced at Zhang Songying and said, "We have already held an internal meeting, and the residents upstairs have also given instructions."

“Let’s strengthen patrols.”

Zhang Songying also had a serious expression. This was no joke. She gestured to the restaurant and said, "I'll find a few more people to go upstairs, close the curtains for rooms where no guests are present, and mark the rooms where someone is."

“This is a good idea and it saves us a lot of work.”

Han Yating nodded to Zhang Songying and said, "There are about six to seven hours from now to the end of the afternoon meeting. Let's communicate more. If there are any problems with the security side, just call me directly."

“Don’t be too tired.”

Qin Huairu pointed in the direction of the office and said, "The door can be left open. You can go in and sit down. We will notify you in time if anything happens here."

"Thank you, Sister Qin"

Han Yating took the initiative to shake hands with her, and then shook hands with Zhang Songying and Feng Juan. Since they were all female comrades, it was easier to talk to them.
-
“Why can’t there be areas further afield that can serve as dumping grounds for the electrical and electronics industry?”

Li Xuewu tapped the table with his pencil and said, "The Ugly Country can blockade us, but we always maintain a competitive and proactive attitude towards the outside world."

"Mr. Nishida should understand this."

He deliberately nodded at Kenichi Nishida, who was frowning, and said, "Our attitude towards the outside world has never been to stand still and work behind closed doors."

"If that's the case, we can't sit here and talk about cooperation, and you and I can't be friends anymore."

"Right, Mr. Nishida?"

Kenichi Nishida was silent for a while. When he heard Li Xuewu call his name, he glanced at everyone but did not rush to answer.

Nakamura Hideji pondered for a moment, looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "Mr. Li, how do you judge, or understand, the overseas distribution market?"

“We still don’t understand the reason and method for dividing the distribution areas.”

He spread his hands in confusion and said, "I have never heard of any company separating the Yuben Market and the Nanchao Market."

“I have never heard of any company that would combine the Japanese market with the North American market.”

Nakamura Hideji's question was collectively recognized by the three Japanese businessmen, and they all turned their confused eyes to Li Xuewu.

The negotiations at the steel mill have always been led by Li Xuewu. Li Huaide only made opening remarks. He is now just waiting for Li Xuewu to finish the business so that he can make closing remarks.

After hearing the translator's retelling of the Japanese business representative's questions, the people here either looked down at the documents in their hands or looked at Li Xuewu who was sitting next to Director Li.

“There is no specific division method”

Li Xuewu said frankly: "The Southern Dynasty supported the Ugly Kingdom's military operations in Annan and personally participated in the operation in exchange for the Ugly Kingdom's technical and financial support for its semiconductor industry. This is something I personally cannot understand."

He said seriously: "I regret the choice made by the person in charge of Nanchao, and adjusted the evaluation criteria for its market, which led to the current distribution area division decision."

"Mr. Li means..."

Ninomiya Kazuya looked at Li Xuewu sharply, and asked tentatively, "Will your company's operations and production be affected by the organization?"

“This is not a subjective reason, this is an objective factor”

Li Xuewu looked at him and said seriously, "Mr. Nigong, you won't fail to understand what I'm saying, right?"

Ninomiya Kazunari tilted his head slightly, looked at Li Xuewu and said, "I don't understand what you said. Does it mean that your company will adjust this political attitude at any time in future operations?"

"I regret that I cannot guarantee the key issues you mentioned. It is irresponsible to make arbitrary judgments about the future."

Li Xuewu said seriously: "Good neighborliness and win-win cooperation have always been the goals of our factory's foreign cooperation."

"However, in the process of production and operation, all factories and enterprises have to bear the risk of policy adjustments."

"It's the same with you. You can't guarantee that your tariff policy will always be inclined to the current advantage, right?"

"We Chinese have an old saying, 'Now that we are here, we should make the best of it. Do what we can first and worry about the future later.'"

Li Xuewu first glanced at Li Huaide, then said to the three people: "Our factory will not express any political stance to the outside world, nor will it impose political influence in cooperation."

"Whether it is two parties or multiple parties, production and operation should be based on a healthy and forward-looking strategy to achieve win-win results."

"You must fully understand what Deputy Director Li means."

Li Huaide had already received the signal sent by Li Xuewu, and said at the right time: "When translators are retelling, they must consider certain key words to avoid misunderstandings and losses."

His tone was steady and his speech was slow, but his words were powerful and everyone in the conference room was listening to him.

"Deputy Director Li's talk about the relationship between the Southern Dynasty and the Ugly Country and the Annan issue is a reminder to you to pay attention to the impact of the international situation."

"We are all enterprises, all business units, and we are all affected by international trends!"

He raised his hand and pointed at Kenichi Nishida who was sitting opposite him and asked, "Does Mr. Nishida have the ability to deal with the Ugly Country and cut the semiconductor and electronics industries of the Southern Dynasty in half?"

"Can't this be done?"

Li Huaide didn't wait for their answer. As he spoke, he looked at the other party and nodded, reminding him: "If you ask me, Deputy Director Li is still too conservative. He didn't say it too bluntly or thoroughly!"

“What is risk?”

He tapped the conference table lightly and said with a frown, "Now you provide the technology and we provide the production. The electronic and electrical industry we jointly built is suffering from the crisis brought about by the rise of the semiconductor industry in the South Dynasty. This is called risk!"

"Are you right?!"

Li Huaide pointed at Kenichi Nishida and asked the question directly. After the translator translated it at the same time, he couldn't help but nodded and acknowledged it.

Inside the conference room, the atmosphere suddenly became a little different because of Li Huaide's speech. Perhaps the more appropriate term would be "shared hatred of the enemy."

Peng Xiaoli, who was sitting at the door of the conference room, swallowed and felt it was ridiculous.

Deputy Director Li fully demonstrated his radical side at the meeting, while Director Li always sought stability and appeared more conservative.

Now, the conservative Director Li thinks that the radical Deputy Director Li is too conservative!

"Sang Li, I'm sorry for the misunderstanding."

Ninomiya Kazunari glanced at Nishida Kenichi, bowed slightly to express his apology to Li Xuewu, and then said earnestly: "My company is willing to accept Nanchao's distribution agency agreement, and we can sign the contract at any time."

“I want to emphasize this point.”

Li Xuewu waved his hand, stopped his initiative to sign the contract, and said seriously: "This is not a simple distribution agreement, this is a targeted industrial layout."

"You have to know that the rise of the semiconductor industry in the South will not only affect your local related industries, but also the market structure of Southeast Asia."

"Therefore, we must nip this danger in the bud, deconstruct the semiconductor industry in the South, and destroy their market structure."

Li Xuewu's eyes were sharp and his tone was fierce. The danger in his words was no less than the bullets he fired on the battlefield. Every bullet was deadly and every word drew blood.

Nishida Kenichi's gaze became more serious as Li Xuewu's words became sharper.

He had a brief conversation with Nakamura Hideji beside him, and when he looked at Li Xuewu again, he asked, "Mr. Li, do you mean to plan a targeted economic destruction strategy?"

“This… this is a bit difficult.”

He took a deep breath, looked at the negotiator from the steel mill, considered his words, and spoke again: "After all, with your strength, even if we get involved, we can't fight against the rise of an industry with support policies, right?"

"I wonder if Mr. Nishida has ever heard this saying: A thousand-mile dam can be breached by a single ant hole."

Li Xuewu said with a feminine look: "The electronics industry in the Southern Dynasty has just started. Even if they have the most advanced production technology in the world and the best industrial mentors, they still have to go through a learning process, right?"

“We are different, we don’t need to learn”

Li Xuewu looked at Nishida Kenichi and said, "Our factory has a complete and mature worker system, a heavy and light industrial base, and a more advantageous development path."

"Now, we just need your full support to complete the advanced technological transformation and realize the full development of production capacity"

"I believe that when the first radio, the first washing machine, and the first product on all production lines rolled off the assembly line, that was the moment when the development of the South Dynasty's electronics industry came to a successful conclusion."

"technology……"

Nishida Kenichi frowned again. He had just thought that the other person's words were nice and reasonable, but now he felt that something was a little wrong...

What exactly went wrong? It seemed like it started when the other party asked me for technology.

Li Huaide pursed his lips and his nostrils moved, keenly sensing the fragrance of a cake, the kind he often ate, big and round.

Kenichi Nishida and others were still a little confused. After all, they didn't know the five great masters of Chinese calligraphy and painting.

Qi Baishi's shrimp, Zhang Daqian's tiger, Xu Beihong's horse, Wang Xizhi's calligraphy, and Li Xuewu's...

“We are not afraid of price wars”

Li Xuewu didn't wait for the three Japanese businessmen to respond. He waved his hand proudly and said, "Our Director Li is here today. I will also tell you the truth."

"In the distribution area of ​​Southern Dynasty, as long as their electronic industrial system is not destroyed, our electronic products have not completely occupied the Southern Dynasty market."

"Then our factory promises that we will not make any profit during the price war! We will fully support you!"

"Is such that"

Li Huaide did not give the Japanese business representative a chance to speak. He quickly took over Li Xuewu's words and said righteously: "I support Deputy Director Li's decision. This is a very strategic decision for our cooperation."

He pointed at the documents on the table and said, "We fully appreciate and understand your willingness to cooperate, and have done a lot of work for the cooperation between the two sides."

"Including those inside the factory, outside the factory, above and below"

Li Huaide's fingers moved up and down and left and right as he spoke, looking very majestic.

"I believe that you have come to Beijing from Guangzhou to visit our factory and have felt our enthusiasm and willingness to cooperate."

"We have come here and sat together on the basis of good-neighborliness, friendship and win-win cooperation. This is very rare."

"I sincerely hope that the cooperation between you and our factory can go smoothly, and in the future we can provide each other with better enterprise development plans and correct enterprise progress guidance."

Li Huaide pointed to the cooperation plan in front of him and said: "When facing common production problems and business difficulties, we are willing to shoulder due responsibilities with you."

“Always maintain the ability and channels for communication and collaboration, and strive to achieve important influence on the global market structure in the future, including the electrical and electronic industry and other cooperation directions…”

As soon as he finished saying this, the car door was welded shut. The three Japanese businessmen looked at each other and felt that things were beyond their expectations.

Everything was going fine originally. We were here to discuss the distribution rights, so why did so many new things come up?

The technical support and introduction policies that were originally agreed upon have now become a common problem that both parties have to face.

They were silent for a while, but Li Xuewu didn't say anything either. At this point, the cards were already exposed, and it all depended on how the other party played.

In the scenario being studied today, the steel mill not only expressed the need for production technology from the electronics industry, but also mentioned the demand for production technology and equipment from the automotive industry.

Although he already had a plan to introduce yacht engine, generator, transmission system and other technologies promised by Italian businessman Andrew.

However, in the development of the automobile industry, no manufacturer or representative can deny the achievements made by Xiaoguiza in this industry.

You can say their cars are thin-skinned, you can say their cars are of poor workmanship, or you can say their cars are not good in this or that way.

But you have to admit that they sell cars to every corner of the world.

Li Xuewu never feels inferior about his backwardness, nor does he become proud and complacent about the little achievements he has made.

It is too early to say that the automobile industry of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill has just started. Compared with the No. 17, No. 27, Jingcheng Factory and other factories that have already completed industrialized production, it is just a seedling, and it is even more incomparable with the automobile industry outside.

Li Xuewu is very clear that in order to achieve rapid development of related industries, it is necessary to go through a special process.

Either introduce comprehensive technology and accept the resulting impact on values ​​and economic perspectives.

Either you work behind closed doors to achieve self-breakthrough and self-development.

He is familiar with the future and knows that the country will be on such a winding road in ten or twenty years, so why not start now.

If we walk now, we haven't run too far, so we can still catch up with him even if we hurry up.

If we really wait for others to completely disconnect the industrial chain and close off the technology before trying to catch up, it will be a huge problem.

Therefore, when the Japanese business representatives decided to follow the negotiation team to Beijing and come to the steel rolling mill for talks, he had already sharpened his knife.

This time he will help the steel mill's several projects to achieve a complete transformation in their industrial base, including the ongoing northward transfer of heavy industrial steel rolling.

All the original technologies and equipment are no longer needed. If it is convenient for Japanese businessmen, they can be purchased from Japanese businessmen. If it is convenient for Hong Kong businessmen, they can be purchased from Hong Kong businessmen.

Even though Andrew said he could get more advanced technology, Li Xuewu was willing to accept Italy's industrial technology and equipment.

He was not a peasant like Li Yunlong. Even if he could not understand the foreign codes on the foreign cannons, he knew how to fire the second battalion commander's Italian cannons.

Now the pit has been dug and the pie has been offered. If the Japanese business representatives choose to withdraw at this time, he will really open fire.

Lao Li was in surprisingly good shape today. He prepared a pancake and Lao Li brought him a bowl of chicken soup. They had a very good understanding.

I don’t know if it was because of Li Xuewu’s training, but he would feel that the smell of biscuits was not right unless he drank a bowl of soup.

Seeing the hesitation of the Japanese representatives, Li Huaide took the initiative and said, "Then take a break, there is no rush."

Not urgent?
Who is not in a hurry?

The three Japanese businessmen looked at each other again, and seeing that Li Huaide and Li Xuewu had stood up on their own initiative, they had no choice but to stand up as well.

The delegation coming to Beijing for negotiations is subject to time limits, and their time cannot be spent entirely on negotiations at the steel mill.

The cooperation time given by the foreign affairs department is also very limited, so how can we not be anxious?

When he was leaving this morning, the secretary general of the delegation, Kenhide Kishida, reminded him to pay attention to the negotiation time, after all, this is the mainland.

They were also well aware that the mainland at this time was not suitable for them to carry out extensive business activities, and it was even more inconvenient for them to stay outside for a long time.

Cooperation with mainland manufacturers should be conducted in a safe and regulated environment. Every trip requires coordination and work from all parties. They are very clear about what it takes to conduct a negotiation.

They know, doesn’t Li Xuewu know?
Of course he knew it. If he didn't know it, he wouldn't be waiting here to set a trap for the other party.

Coming out of the conference room, Li Xuewu followed Li Huaide to the restaurant to smoke. While lighting cigarettes, the two looked at each other and both showed fox-like smiles.

Li Huaide took a puff and tapped his watch to remind Li Xuewu to pay attention to the heat.

Li Xuewu, however, nonchalantly pointed to the meeting room where no Japanese representatives had come out, and everything was under control.

If Xiao Guizha was really dissatisfied, he would never just wait in the meeting room. He would definitely come to him to express his dissatisfaction.

Even if they have a full understanding, even if they don't express their opinions through him, they still have to come out and talk about their ideas.

But look now, Li Huaide and Li Xuewu have both come out, and they are discussing it, and it is obvious that they can accept these conditions.

As for why he didn't agree at that time, we have to bring out the theory that Li Xuewu had told Qin Huairu.

There's nothing we won't sell, it's just that we can't agree on the price, right?

After Li Xuewu accompanied Li Huaide back to the meeting room and sat down, the daily representative indeed put forward a new request:
Kazunari Ninomiya stated that his company would serve as the distribution agent for Minamicho and fully agreed with and agreed to the relevant terms of the steel mill's cooperation plan.

At the same time, he also expressed the need for support from steel mills in terms of cargo transportation and export routes.

Hideji Nakamura said his company will be the distributor in North America.

Correspondingly, a strategic layout and adjustment period is needed for the North American market, and steel mills are also needed to provide support in terms of prices and cargo transportation channels.

In response to the need for introducing technology and equipment mentioned by the steel rolling mill, Kenichi Nishida responded on behalf of the three-person group.

The three companies all have the right to export machinery and equipment, and of course have the relevant technical export capabilities. In this regard, they fully understand the needs of the steel mill and have made compromises.

Especially in terms of automobile industry technology and equipment, they do not have special channels, but what they promised to the steel mills was the highest standard they could achieve.

Based on the above requirements, Kenichi Nishida proposed to establish a resident office in the capital.

This condition had already been mentioned once when the two parties met, and formally raising it now expresses the other party's earnest and serious need.

Li Xuewu and Li Huaide looked at each other, thought for a moment and replied: "I will explain Mr. Nigong's request for support in cargo transportation and export."

"The factory was built in Gangcheng. We have our own shipyard in Yingcheng, and accordingly we also have our own import and export docks."

"For the distance between Gangcheng and Yingcheng, we not only have rail transportation capabilities, but also inland river transportation channels, which can fully guarantee the transportation conditions of goods."

"The second is ocean shipping. We can provide excellent shipping solution providers to ensure that the other party fully protects your interests during the transportation process."

"I will also coordinate with Director Li regarding the customs clearance of export goods."

As Li Xuewu spoke, he looked at Li Huaide, looking like someone who was asking questions on the spot and solving them through on-the-spot communication. He said, "Director Li, look at this..."

“I don’t think it’s a problem.”

Li Huaide did not take on too much responsibility, but said sincerely: "Our foreign trade department supports and understands the export of goods."

"I believe that as long as our factory operates in compliance with regulations and your business abides by the law, we can understand each other in cooperation and avoid mistakes on tax issues, I think we can coordinate on customs clearance."

He nodded to Li Haiyang at the door and said, "Remind me to call Foreign Trade after the meeting to arrange this matter. Let's go there and tell Director Zhang about the actual situation."

Having said that, he nodded to Li Xuewu and said, "I just don't believe that he can spend the money he got, right~"

Li Xuewu nodded, looked at Nishida Kenichi and others, and said: "Since Director Li said that it can be coordinated, I think we can put this matter to rest. Let's talk about the office you proposed."

"From my personal perspective, I really hope that you can come and stay so that we can have face-to-face communication and exchanges in the future."

He spread his hands and gestured to the other party, "But let's be honest, the environment and conditions to support your establishment of an office in Beijing are not yet mature."

Li Xuewu glanced at Li Huaide and saw that he nodded, so he continued: "Even though there are many foreigners working and living in Beijing now, the organization has fully guaranteed their legal rights and interests."

"But this is only a reservation in the media and related organizations. No office for economic cooperation and business cooperation has been established yet."

"We are still exploring the institutional construction of economic and commercial cooperation, but I firmly believe that it will never be too late to open up to you in the future."

Just as Nishida Kenichi and others were frowning and expressing disappointment, Li Xuewu clenched his fists again, looked at Li Huaide and asked, "Director Li, the status of Beijing is very special after all. If it is purely for economic and commercial exchanges, do you think Tianjin is suitable?"

"Well..."

Li Huaide pretended to think about it, but did not give an answer immediately.

The three Japanese businessmen certainly wanted to set up an office in Beijing, but Li Xuewu had already explained the reasons why this could not be done.

I had already prepared myself for not being able to gain a foothold in the mainland, but unexpectedly, Li Xuewu gave me another choice like a roller coaster.

After listening to the simultaneous interpretation, the Japanese businessmen's eyes were once again focused on Li Huaide.

Li Huaide also waited for the three of them to understand what Li Xuewu said before he slowly said: "I think it's feasible. No matter how strict the system is, it needs some room for some fresh air."

"Then it's Tianjin"

Li Xuewu turned to look at Kenichi Nishida and others and said, "To be honest, our factory's understanding of business and economic trade policies is not as complete and thorough as you think."

He tapped the table vertically with his finger and said seriously: "Here, no one dares to say what the weather will be like tomorrow, because all the wind and rain start from here, and there is no time to prepare and respond."

"But Tianjin is different. It has a superior geographical location, is not far from the capital, and has the advantage of a port."

Li Xuewu pointed to the materials at hand and explained: "Precisely because of our cautious attitude towards commercial trade and economic policies, our trade management center is actually in Tianjin."

"Oh?"

When Nishida Kenichi heard Li Xuewu's explanation, his eyes lit up and his expression changed slightly, as if he had understood the meaning of Li Xuewu's words.

It was certainly not Xiao Guizha's good intention to set up an office in Beijing, and Li Xuewu had no good intention in sending him to Tianjin.

It can be said that the two sides are evenly matched, with half a catty and eight taels of each other.

"Mr. Nishida does not have to worry too much about the location of the office. If we talk about business cooperation, Tianjin will be the main operating location of the steel rolling mill in the future."

Li Xuewu smiled and picked up the teacup and took a sip, which eased the tense atmosphere in the meeting room.

Li Huaide, on the other hand, had always maintained a cautious and conservative attitude, and did not seem to take the other party seriously.

Seeing that the two sides were about to enter a stalemate again, Momotani Erika bowed slightly, with a cautious look, and said to Li Xuewu with a very flattering smile: "Mr. Li, it's just that the office is in Tianjin, so it's not easy for me to see you."

"Hahaha~"

"Hehehe~"

……

The tense atmosphere in the conference room was eased a little because of Li Xuewu's words, and was finally eased because Momotani Erika took the initiative to make an ambiguous joke.

Everyone looked at Momotani Erika's shy yet admiring eyes, and when they looked at Li Xuewu, they all looked at her with teasing and amusement.

Although they all knew that the two were innocent, they also knew that Li Xuewu was an upright person and had no interest in women.

I also know that Erika Momotani must be a special woman with a special mission as the representative of the Japanese Business Office.

But in this depressing atmosphere, everyone needs an outlet to vent, so they have no choice but to make sacrifices.

In the face of Momotani Erika's teasing, Li Xuewu smiled calmly, then blinked at her and said, "Ms. Momotani, there is no need to regret, because I am the person in charge of the Economic and Trade Management Center of our factory, and I will go to Tianjin frequently in the future."

There was nothing wrong with what he said, but compared to the regretful tone of Momotani Erika earlier, this answer seemed to be really ambiguous.

Everyone turned their eyes to the two of them again, all with a look of watching spectators.

But is this really the case?

Of course not. Erika Momotani is not as simple as she seems, and Kenichi Nishida and others are not fools. They really don’t know where the pit is when they see it.

The other party is using the strategy of using softness to overcome hardness and retreating to advance to test the steel mill's true attitude.

Sometimes, men and women speak the most true words in their hearts in a joking tone. This is true in love and in business.
