Chapter 818 Intercede?

In the reception room, Lin Dong looked at the two people in front of him calmly.

Ji Yao sat beside Lin Dong with a displeased expression on her face.

The two people on the opposite side, one about 45 years old, looks smart and capable, about the same height as Lin Dong, wearing a jacket on the upper body and slacks on the lower body, looking like an ordinary government worker.

But Lin Dong knew that he was not ordinary at all.This is a director of the Foreign Trade Department of the Ministry of Commerce, named Huang Baiquan.The handsome young man next to him was an officer in the office.

Huang Baiquan looked at Lin Dong and said sincerely: "Actually, I also know that our request is a little too much. After all, that Franco has caused a bad influence on your platform, but the Franco family and our country have many Enterprises have business contacts, which are also recorded in our Ministry of Commerce. This time they asked us, and we happened to have a batch of materials that needed to be purchased through them. This amount of strategic materials is usually under strict control by the United States. , Now people in their family say that as long as your Bifang platform withdraws the accusation against Franco and then makes an announcement, they will connect us with the company that produces strategic materials..."

"Impossible!" Before Lin Dong could speak, Ji Yao said angrily, "We have no objection to helping the country as much as we can, but let us take back the announcement that has been sent, and then Then issue an announcement to explain, isn’t this letting us slap ourselves in the face?”

Ji Yao's anger is justified.Franco’s behavior on the Bifang platform has already caused a very bad influence. Now many people who originally intended to enter the Bifang platform have begun to hesitate, which has caused the overseas sales of the latest version of the Flying Wolf helmet to drop a lot these days. , if Changying Group makes another announcement, I am afraid that not only the sales of Flying Wolf helmets will drop sharply, but many users who are already on the platform will also run away.

Huang Baiquan said with a wry smile: "I know this is really embarrassing for Changying Group, so if Changying Group can do this, it will not only contribute to the country, but also help our Ministry of Commerce a lot. In terms of some policies, We will also properly tilt towards the Changying Group to make up for your losses..."

Just as Ji Yao was about to speak, Lin Dong waved his hand to stop her.Lin Dong knew that if Ji Yao were to say it, there would definitely be nothing nice to say.After all, from the day Changying Group was established, except that Shennong Group applied for a project discount because it had to compete with others for time, in other respects, Changying Group's products were in short supply, so there was no need to apply for any policy discounts and support.

Ji Yao also understood that Lin Dong didn't want to cause trouble. Of course, she was not afraid of trouble. As a father, it might be very easy to suppress this matter.

However, Ji Yao didn't intend to do this, and she didn't want to do it. She just felt that the fact that these two people came to intercede for Franco was really nonsense.

Perhaps in the eyes of some elders, it is normal to lose some personal interests for the benefit of the country.It's not that Ji Yao doesn't agree with this approach, but that it's not worth it—except for some top-level military technology, or things like fighter jet engines, the quality of China's production is not high, and how many other things are really urgently needed by China of?
Lin Dong didn't let Ji Yao speak, he asked calmly: "Then can I ask Director Huang, what are these strategic materials? Where are they used?"

"Did you ask this? These things are very confidential," before Huang Baiquan could speak, the handsome young man next to him couldn't help but said to Lin Dong: "You only know that for you, sending a message is painless or not. An itchy announcement can be exchanged for a policy that is very beneficial to you, that's enough! There are some things that you can't understand at this level, understand?"

In the last sentence, the young man emphasized his tone, as if telling Lin Dong: You just need to be a good businessman, your level is not enough, and it's not time to understand this!
The young man was sitting next to Huang Baiquan just now, and his eyes flicked past Ji Yao from time to time, but Ji Yao hadn't paid attention to him, which made him a little disappointed. Now that he has the opportunity to speak, he will naturally not let go of this opportunity.

"Xiao Chen, don't talk nonsense!" Huang Baiquan deliberately scolded the young man when he heard what the young man said. Unlike Xiao Chen, he vaguely knew that the Changying Group had a strong background, otherwise he would not have come to find the Changying Group in person.Now Lin Dong's words were intercepted by Xiao Chen. Although he didn't agree with them, he also felt that these two people from the Changying Group were a bit arrogant and needed to be suppressed.

But after thinking about it, Huang Mianquan still explained: "What we need is seed steel. The formula of this kind of steel is quite unique. Although it is not used much, there are still many places in our country that need it," he said. , He briefly introduced the performance of the special steel.

Hearing this, a piece of information flashed in Lin Dong's mind, and then he said in surprise: "I remember that this special steel has been developed by Wuhan Iron and Steel in our country! And now they are able to mass-produce it." , although the quantity is not too large, it shouldn’t be a problem to meet domestic demand, right?”

An embarrassing expression suddenly appeared on Huang Baiquan's face. He never expected that Lin Dong would know that this kind of steel had been developed in China and was even sold. This time, although his reasons sounded very high-sounding and legitimate, but After being told by Lin Dong, it's hard to say what's really in it!
"What do you know?" The young man was reluctant, "Although the special steel of Wuhan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. barely meets the standard, the price is not to mention expensive, and the quantity is very low. Compared with the quantity required by several large state-owned enterprises and research institutions in our country , Not enough at all! The company introduced by the Franco family can not only meet our needs, but also have surplus..."

"Isn't it just that domestic products are expensive!" Ji Yao interrupted him politely, "If you don't buy domestic products, it may take a long time for Wuhan Iron and Steel's products to sell. How can they continue to sell? Develop more advanced materials?"

Lin Dong said with a calm face: "Ji Yao is right. I think you need to consider domestic materials. Although the quality may be slightly worse, if you don't support it, then Wuhan Iron and Steel can only digest it through the market. The research and development cycle It will definitely be longer. In this case, the impact will definitely be greater. In addition, our Changying Group will definitely support the construction of the country, but that is in advance of the country's real needs. In the current situation, I don't think we need to do anything. "

Huang Baiquan left Changying Group with Xiao Chen in silence.With an angry look on Xiao Chen's face, he couldn't help but said: "Chu Huang, why don't we go back and write them directly through the Ministry! For a company like this, if you don't give them a good look, they don't know how to respect it at all." we!"

Huang Baiquan glanced at Xiao Chen in surprise, and finally chose to explain: "Xiao Chen, in fact, the Changying Group is right. Our decision is not necessary for them. Our decision is for the country. , it’s also not necessary—it’s more complicated, not as simple as you think!”
