King of Industry

The 30-hour journey is indeed quite painful. Even if you are sitting in the first-class cabin, there is a stop in the middle, and you can't dispel the fatigue of the journey.

Especially the ubiquitous roaring noise on the plane is a challenge to the human body.

When the plane arrived in Sao Paulo, Zhao Guoyang felt that his ears seemed to be in a state of roaring, even if the roar of the engine disappeared.

Due to the eleven-hour time difference with Huaxia, the plane arrived in Sao Paulo just after four o'clock in the afternoon.

After taxiing for a certain distance, the plane landed firmly on the tarmac. Through the window, Zhao Guoyang saw a group of officials in suits and leather shoes waiting below.

After the plane door opened, Huang Zhigang, Yao Gang, Yu Pengfei, and Li Kejian nodded, and immediately walked down the escalator.

Following the leaders are Mao Zhichun, Xia Yu, Zhao Guoyang and Zhang Yufang.

Just after Huang Zhi stepped down the escalator, Zhao Guoyang saw a Chinese official in his forties leading a leader from the Samba country to shake hands with him.

After some introductions, Zhao Guoyang found out that this young Chinese official was the Consul General Luan Shengfeng of the Consulate General in Sao Paulo State.

And the leader of the Samba country is Baptista, the governor of Sao Paulo state.

When high-ranking officials go abroad to visit, generally speaking, they are domestic ambassadors to the country, and important political figures of the country will pick them up at the airport in person.

However, due to the special situation in the country of Samba, Shao Zhimin, the Chinese ambassador to the country of Samba, works in Sambalia, the capital of the country, which is about as far away from Sao Paulo as the capital city to SJ city.

Therefore, before this trip, Huang Zhigang, Yao Gang, and Yu Pengfei talked with Shao Zhimin, telling him not to make such a special trip all the way.

After all, Huang Zhigang's trip to Samba is more of a local nature, and has not risen to the diplomatic level, so there is no need to work hard.

With Huang Zhigang's explanation, Shao Zhimin naturally didn't have to be polite anymore, but he and Luan Shengfeng, the consul general of the Chinese Consulate General in Sao Paulo State, urged him to do a good job in reception.

Speaking of which, although Luan Shengfeng is only the consul general and not the ambassador of a country, his status should not be underestimated.

Due to the international influence of the Samba country and the important position of Sao Paulo State in the Samba country, the Consul General Luan Shengfeng is also a dignified department-level cadre, and is on an equal footing with the ambassadors of other countries.

Of course, Shao Zhimin, China's ambassador to Samba, is also a high match.

He is one of the only seven ambassadors at the deputy ministerial level among the Chinese ambassadors abroad.

There is a consul general at the departmental level, and the governor of Sao Paulo State, which is equivalent to a high-ranking official in China, came to pick up the plane. It can also be seen that the Samba State attaches great importance to Mayor Huang's visit.

After the previous leaders greeted each other, Huang Zhigang introduced the other main members of the team to Governor Baptista and Consul General Luan Shengfeng.

Zhao Guoyang noticed that when Mayor Huang introduced him, Consul General Luan Shengfeng looked at him with surprise.

Obviously, the consul general still has some doubts about his identity as a special researcher.

In this regard, Zhao Guoyang didn't feel anything.

He knows his own affairs well, he knows that his age is too young, and wherever he goes, people will look at him with such doubting eyes.

For this point, Zhao Guoyang has long been familiar with it.

Compared to Luan Shengfeng, the governor of Sao Paulo State did not have the slightest prejudice against Zhao Guoyang, shook hands with him with a smile, and spoke a few words in Portuguese.

Since he had been to Samba country more than once in his previous life, Zhao Guoyang knew the etiquette of this country very well. As for the Portuguese language commonly used in Samba country, he also came here with open mouth.

Zhao Guoyang smiled politely when he heard the man say the young man is very handsome in Portuguese.

He first clenched his fists, then gave a thumbs up to the sky, performed the most solemn boxing salute in Samba, and then said in very standard Portuguese: Dear Mr. Governor, thank you very much for your compliment! Thank you!

Hearing Zhao Guoyang's standard Portuguese, Baptista was taken aback.

The tall female translator standing beside him also blinked her beautiful eyes, looking up and down at Zhao Guoyang.

Zhao Guoyang didn't notice her appearance until she shot her gaze at him.

She has beautiful long golden-red hair, draped over her shoulders like a red waterfall, which complements her exposed wheat-colored skin, making her very eye-catching.

The girl's facial features are very beautiful, in line with the characteristics of a Samba mixed-race beauty. Under the long eyelashes, there are two big eyes like glass beads, blinking and blinking, full of youthful and passionate light.

Perhaps because she knew that she was receiving Chinese guests today, this young beautiful translator wore a Chinese-style dress.

As the breeze blew, her skirt fluttered slightly, allowing her almost perfect slender thighs to be seen at a glance.

Seeing this beauty staring at him all the time, even forgetting his own job, Zhao Guoyang felt a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, Baptista had already reacted at this time, glanced at the beautiful translator beside him, turned to Zhao Guoyang with a smile and said, Zhao? You can speak Portuguese? This is too surprising!

When Huang Zhigang introduced Governor Baptista just now, he clearly explained Zhao Guoyang's identity as a special researcher and technical advisor.

Baptista was naturally surprised to hear a technician speak such fluent Portuguese now.

Hearing the governor's question, Zhao Guoyang answered him calmly in Portuguese, and at the same time did not forget to explain why he knew Portuguese.

Mr. Governor, I have taught myself Portuguese for a long time when I was in college, so there is no problem for me to have a normal conversation.

Zhao Guoyang didn't say anything too modest, because he knew the style of foreigners. People who don't understand Huaxia's modesty know that they will believe whatever you say.

If Zhao Guoyang said that he only knew a little bit, people might believe it.

In the following period of time together, if Zhao Guoyang shows a superior level of Portuguese again, he will have a lump in his heart, thinking that you are dishonest.

On the other side, when Zhao Guoyang was talking to Governor Baptista in fluent Portuguese, the expressions of the bosses were a little weird.

Huang Zhigang and Mao Zhichun were no strangers to Zhao Guoyang's foreign language proficiency.

At the SJ City Auto Expo before, he successively demonstrated his ability to be proficient in three languages: English, Germanic, and Japanese, which shocked the leaders of SJ City and Songqi Group.

Now that this kid has another Portuguese language, Huang Zhigang and Mao Zhichun feel that it is not something they cannot accept.

Although Huang Zhigang and Mao Zhichun could still remain calm, Yao Gang, Yu Pengfei, Luan Shengfeng and others didn't think so at all.

In the early 1990s, the number of college students was small, and there were even fewer students who chose to learn a small language such as Portuguese.

It seemed that this time Mayor Huang led the team himself, and it took a lot of effort to find a Portuguese translator like Zhang Yufang, who was also a university teacher.

For students, although there are some, but there are not many who are of sufficient standard.

Now Zhao Guoyang, who was born in technology, can communicate with the Governor without hindrance in a very fluent Portuguese, how can he not surprise the big bosses.

After Zhao Guoyang talked with Baptista for a few words, the beautiful translator next to him finally came to his senses.

She said to Zhao Guoyang in rather blunt Chinese: Excuse me, are you the translator for this trip in your country? Your Portuguese is really standard...

After hearing this, Zhao Guoyang quickly waved his hand, pointed to Zhang Yufang beside him and introduced, You misunderstood, this Miss Zhang is our translator for this trip.

Following Zhao Guoyang's gestures and words, Zhang Yufang was relieved from the exclamation just now.

She and Zhao Guoyang sat in the same row on the plane, and naturally they talked about some topics during the trip.

Zhang Yufang knew that Zhao Guoyang was very familiar with the situation in Samba.

She only thought that Zhao Guoyang made a surprise attack before going abroad and read some knowledge in books.

It wasn't until Zhao Guoyang spoke Portuguese more fluently than herself that Zhang Yufang realized that she was completely wrong.

It turns out that this young Xiao Zhao really knows the country of Samba very well...

Under Zhao Guoyang's introduction, the beautiful translator of Samba Guo and Zhang Yufang exchanged greetings, said a few polite words, and then returned to the governor's side.

After the members on both sides exchanged greetings, the reception ceremony finally came to an end.

Baptista warmly invited Mayor Huang into his car, saying that he had prepared a sumptuous dinner at the Governor's Mansion to entertain distinguished guests from China.

Of course, Mayor Huang readily agreed. He chatted with Luan Shengfeng in a low voice, and then got into Baptista's car.

Baptista was riding in an old extended Mercedes-Benz with three rows front and rear.

Originally, the governor and the mayor should sit in the back row, with the translators on both sides sitting in the middle.

But for some unknown reason, after the beautiful translator whispered a few words to Baptista's ear, she didn't get in the car, but chose the car behind.

Seeing her movements, when Zhang Yufang was still in a daze, Zhao Guoyang quickly reminded: Mr. Zhang, you should sit down. The two leaders are waiting.

Ah, good, good! Zhang Yufang was taken aback when she heard the words, and quickly realized that she trotted over in a hurry and got into the middle row of the Mercedes-Benz.

Knowing that Zhang Yufang got into the car and the car started, Zhao Guoyang breathed a sigh of relief.

He also noticed that it was probably the first time for Teacher Zhang to go abroad to perform this kind of translation task. Although her professional level was not a problem, sometimes she was a little nervous.

I hope I can help her a little bit.
