King of Industry

After waiting back and forth for almost an hour, the plane finally began to taxi slowly on the runway, ready to take off.

Zhao Guoyang lay on his seat very relaxed, and from time to time comforted Zhang Yufang who was a little nervous next to her, telling her not to be too nervous.

After taking off, the plane gradually climbed up at a relatively large angle with a huge roar. After adapting to this state, Zhang Yufang gradually let go of her anxiety.

The long journey is about to begin, and the eight people in the first-class cabin feel more or less strange in their hearts.

Several leaders have been abroad, and it is better to have taken a long-distance plane. Zhang Yufang is a bit like Grandma Liu going to the Grand View Garden.

The female teacher, after getting used to flying at high altitude, looked around through the window from time to time, as if she was very curious about the dark night sky outside and the little lights below.

Looking at the childlike innocence of Teacher Zhang, Zhao Guoyang couldn't help showing a smile.

Because the plane took off at around ten o'clock in the evening, after reaching a certain altitude, it began to fly smoothly. Several leaders in the first-class cabin put down their chairs and lay down to rest.

Although Zhao Guoyang is in good spirits, he knows that flying such a long-distance plane is actually very torturous. It is rare that the flight is relatively stable at this moment, so naturally he can sleep for a while.

In his previous life, Zhao Guoyang had been to most of the countries and developed regions in the world. Among them, the South American continent was the place he was least willing to set foot in.

The reason is very simple. South America is the farthest from China in a straight line. Geographically speaking, Tango Country is located at the foot of China. There is no further journey than this.

For such a long distance, even the most advanced Boeing 767 aircraft in the previous life would take more than 20 hours to arrive.

For dozens of hours, surrounded by the roar of engines and the sound of hydraulic water flow, this kind of long-distance flight is really not so pleasant for ordinary people.

Of course, the first class and business class are generally located away from the engine, and the noise is relatively better.

However, this cannot be completely avoided after all, it can only slightly reduce the degree of discomfort.

Watching Zhao Guoyang beside him slowly fall asleep with a calm expression, Zhang Yufang cast doubtful eyes on the young man's face.

Through some previous introductions, she has already learned the identity of this young man - a special researcher of the National Machinery Industry Committee, SJ City Machinery Industry Committee, and Songqi Group, and he is less than 23 years old.

Originally, Zhang Yufang was a little skeptical about these titles of Zhao Guoyang, thinking that he was just a coincidence, that he happened to have a small success in a certain field, and received the attention and care of the leaders. His real talent level did not reach the level of special researcher. the height of.

But just looking at his calmness and composure after getting on the plane, Zhang Yufang could sense how extraordinary Zhao Guoyang was.

She had a faint feeling in her heart that maybe her previous suspicion was wrong.

...

To be honest, the feeling of sleeping on the plane is not very good. Zhao Guoyang woke up after only a few hours of sleep.

Looking at Zhang Yufang's sleeping face beside him, Zhao Guoyang put on his coat lightly, and was going to sit in the lounge next to him.

In the early 1990s, first-class cabins on domestic planes were generally equipped with a lounge for business people to discuss work matters.

The plane Zhao Guoyang took was serving several leaders, and there were two beautiful stewardesses standing outside the lounge in shifts, serving 24 hours to prevent the leaders from having a meeting or something.

Seeing Zhao Guoyang coming from the VIP room, the two stewardesses bowed to him, and then opened the door of the lounge for him.

After entering the lounge, Zhao Guoyang realized that there were already people inside.

Mayor Huang Zhigang, Minister Yao Gang of the Ministry of Foreign Trade, and Minister Yu Pengfei of the Ministry of Light and Textile Industry were sitting at the coffee table talking in low voices.

Seeing the gazes of the three bosses coming over, Zhao Guoyang quickly raised his hands to apologize: Three leaders, I'm sorry, I didn't know you were here, I'll go out now...

Hey, Guoyang, you're here, so why go back? Just in time, I talked about some things with Lao Yao and Lao Yu here, and you're here to help the staff? Mayor Huang waved his hand, showing no surprise Said.

After hearing this, Yao Gang and Yu Pengfei looked at each other, and they both saw a trace of surprise in each other's eyes.

Although the two of them are only departmental deputies of the central ministries and commissions, their power is not small at all. To a certain extent, they even surpass the top officials in many provinces.

In the early 1990s, the country was just transitioning from a planned economy to a market economy, and the central ministries and commissions had a great say in decision-making on some local issues.

It can be said that although Yao Gang and Yu Pengfei are one level lower than Huang Zhigang, in terms of influence, they are not weaker than Mayor Huang.

From their point of view, Huang Zhigang's attitude towards the young man in front of him seemed a little too much.

The three of us are talking about the important trade between the country and the Samba country at this moment. How can we let a fledgling kid who is engaged in technology participate in it?

Of course, although there were slanders in their hearts, Yao Gang and Yu Pengfei were still very smart, so naturally they would not show these things on their faces.

After all, Huang Zhigang is the leader of the trip to the Samba country decided by the central government, and the two of them must respect his decision.

After Zhao Guoyang sat down, he caught a glimpse of the strange look on the faces of the two leaders of the ministries and commissions.

He was also quite helpless about this. You can't lose face to Mayor Huang, don't sit here.

Huang Zhigang didn't seem to notice the strange atmosphere. He said to Yao Gang on his own: Old Yao, I partially agree with what you said just now. Indeed, we and Samba are both developing countries. Both are known for their abundant and cheap labor force, and international competition between the two countries does exist.”

Yao Gang chuckled, turned his head and glanced at Zhao Guoyang's face, and then Huang Zhigang said: Mayor Huang, basically the situation is like this. Samba is now working hard to develop bilateral cooperation with several developed countries in the West. The talks may involve attracting a large number of technology companies to invest in.”

Many of them are projects that our Ministry of Foreign Trade has suggested to the State Council before. So... whether it is an enemy or a friend, it is still hard to predict.

After hearing this, Zhao Guoyang frowned slightly, and he didn't quite agree with Minister Yao's words.

In his view, although competition among developing countries is inevitable, it should never become an obstacle to bilateral relations, let alone treat them as imaginary enemies just because of some temporary or partial benefits.

If you do this, you will only get yourself into a predicament and gradually block the way out.

Zhao Guoyang's expression did not escape Huang Zhigang's gaze.

He waved to Zhao Guoyang with a slight smile and said, Guoyang, you should have almost heard the reason for the topic I talked with Minister Yao, right? How about it, tell us what you think, don't Afraid of making a mistake, speak freely and brainstorm!

After hearing Huang Zhigang's words, the displeasure on Yao Gang's face intensified.

On the other hand, Yu Pengfei, who was on the side, was more calm, and echoed: Yes, Xiao Zhao, you young people must have different views from us old comrades. Tell us your opinion and give us some hints Not bad either!

When Yu Pengfei said this, he undoubtedly belittled Zhao Guoyang's weight and treated him as an ordinary college student or young man.

After he finished speaking, Yao Gang, who was still a little brooding before, was not so depressed.

Zhao Guoyang didn't pay much attention to Yu Pengfei's evaluation.

He knew that there were two dignified ministers, and it was already a great deal of face for Ken to sit here and listen to himself.

After all, they don't know that they have amazing insights and profound knowledge from previous lives.

Thinking of this, Zhao Guoyang nodded lightly, lowered his posture and said: Mayor Huang, Minister Yao, and Minister Yu, to be honest, I don't think I am qualified to sit here. express an opinion.

Since Minister Yu just said that as a young man, let me express my views casually, then I will be bold and talk about some of my views. If there is something wrong, please criticize the three leaders , correct me.

After Zhao Guoyang said these words, Yao Gang and Yu Pengfei nodded secretly.

In the eyes of these two, no matter what the young man's level is or how much he knows about bilateral trade, at least his attitude is very calm and correct.

In view of this, Yao Gang put away the displeasure just now, and smiled and said, Comrade Zhao, don't be too modest. Since Mayor Huang called your name, you must have something to make him Appreciation. Now, I'm curious about what opinion you can give.

Zhao Guoyang smiled reservedly, and slowly explained some of his views.

He coughed and said, Three leaders, first of all, I have no objection to Minister Yao's point. Indeed, there is a competitive relationship between our country and Samba, and even the whole of Latin America.

If I remember correctly, among the current Latin American countries, except for the Tango country, which has a slightly better economy, the rest of the countries are basically underdeveloped regions. Just like the Samba country, the per capita income level is almost the same as ours. It can be said that everyone is the main force in developing countries.”

After Zhao Guoyang finished speaking, Huang Zhigang and the three of them nodded slightly.

Yao Gang, who had always been skeptical of him before, praised him without hesitation: Well, not bad, Xiao Zhao. It seems that you have a deep understanding of Latin America and the country of Samba.

Zhao Guoyang smiled and explained: Minister Yao, I have sat in on some international economics and finance courses in college before, and I know a little about these aspects...

When Yao Gang heard the words, he looked forward to Zhao Guoyang even more in his heart. He gestured again and again: Okay, Xiao Zhao, you can continue talking!

Zhao Guoyang nodded lightly, rationalized his thoughts, and expressed some insights that amazed the three of them.
