Material Empire

Kishida Kunio didn't know that a small gift he sent could make a Chinese girl so happy. He has been freed from what happened just now, and continued to inspect other equipment in the heat treatment workshop. Knowing that Kunio Kishida was coming to inspect, a screen was temporarily pulled up in the heat treatment workshop to block the heat treatment process for auto parts. What Kunio Kishida could see was only the part related to the rotary blade.

Can't I really see your other departments? Kunio Kishida pointed to the back of the screen and asked Qin Hai half-jokingly.

Qin Hai smiled and said: Those are things that can't be put on the table. In order to prevent Japanese guests like you from seeing our backward side, we blocked it.

No, no, I think you are very advanced. It is very admirable that you can achieve such a high level of processing with such simple equipment. Kunio Kishida said. Of course he also knew that what Qin Hai said just now was just a tactful refusal, and as a smart person, he didn't need to expose this cover-up.

After the visit, Kunio Kishida came to the conference room of Qingfeng Factory, where he formally signed a cooperation agreement with Ning Zhongying. Officials from the provincial foreign trade department and relevant departments at the city and county levels witnessed the signing process of the agreement.

According to the agreement, in the next year, Qingfeng Agricultural Machinery Factory will provide 1 million rotary cultivator blades to Fukuoka Corporation, and the quality standard will not be lower than the samples provided before. As for the price of the blades, as previously agreed, it is 350 yen each.

As for the denomination currency of the transaction, the Provincial Department of Foreign Trade has no special requirements. Both the US dollar and the Japanese yen are foreign currencies that are in short supply in the country. To be able to earn US dollars and earn Japanese yen is equally capable for the Department of Foreign Trade.

However, relying on his own vague memory, Qin Hai still insisted on using the yen as the denomination unit. Not long after the signing of the agreement, Japan was required by the Plaza Agreement to substantially increase the value of the yen, which nearly doubled in value. The officials of the Foreign Trade Department of Anhe Province exclaimed that Qin Hai had a vision. This is a later story. Needless to say.

After the signing ceremony, followed by a grand banquet. This banquet was held in the large cafeteria of the county government. As a Chinese hand, Kunio Kishida is not surprised by such scenes. He was a foreign guest, and no one dared to drink his wine. Although everyone toasted frequently, they didn't really drink much wine. Instead, everyone said some friendly things about China and Japan to each other, showing a happy atmosphere.

At that time, China, the United States, and Japan were all in the honeymoon period, and their relations, both official and private, were very harmonious.

At the banquet, Qin Hai saw quite a few girls from County No. 1 Middle School, well dressed, standing aside as entertainers. What made Qin Hai feel relieved was that he didn't see Qin Shan and Tranquility, probably because what he said to Qin Shan earlier had an effect. Tranquility is now at the same table with Qin Shan, and the two girls have nothing to say between each other. Qin Hai's words will definitely reach Tranquility's ears immediately.

Those girls who participated in the service did not have Qin Hai's hypocritical psychology. They were all very excited that they could participate in such an important foreign event to welcome foreign guests.

After drinking and eating, Xia Qilong, secretary of the county party committee, asked Kunio Kishida who was sitting next to him: Mr. Kishida, your inspection work is over, do you want us to arrange some other visits for you in our county? It is a place of historical interest, although it is not well-known, but it also has a lot of history, I believe Japanese friends should be very interested.

Kishida Kunio said: Thank you, Mr. Xia. My schedule in China is also very tight. I will not consider these tourist activities for the time being. If I have a chance to take a vacation in the future, I will definitely come to Guixian County to pay homage to these historical sites. The remaining half day In time, I want to visit Mr. Qin's home and discuss with him some technical issues related to steel smelting.

Qin... Xia Qilong's mind was a little out of order, he really couldn't think of any Daniel surnamed Qin who was worthy of a visit from foreign guests.

Guo Ming, who was sitting on the other side of Kunio Kishida, realized it all at once. When he visited the Qingfeng factory today, Qin Hai was the protagonist of the scene. It was difficult for Guo Ming to know him. However, for Kunio Kishida's desire to visit Qin Hai's home, he also couldn't think of a reason. He didn't understand when these two people could get along so well.

Mr. Kishida is talking about Qin Hai, right? If you have any technical issues that you need to discuss, you can find a room in the county government to talk. Our conditions are better after all. Guo Ming suggested.

Kishida Kunio said: Don't bother Mr. Guo, I am also more interested in ordinary Chinese families, so I want to experience it. I think this matter should not have much to do with the official, it is just some private exchanges , Mr. Xia and Mr. Guo please agree.

That's definitely not a problem. Guo Ming smiled and said perfunctorily, Mr. Kishida, wait a moment, I'll make arrangements.

After finishing speaking, he got up and left the table, and Xiao Liu from the provincial foreign affairs office who was also sitting on the table was dragged along. The two came to a place where people were carrying people. Guo Ming asked, Xiao Liu, did you hear that request of Kunio Kishida just now?

Of course I heard it. Xiao Liu frowned into a big pimple, and said with a little annoyance: County Guo, I didn't say that you, Pingyuan County, are really careless about the work of receiving foreign guests this time. How can a politically unreliable person like Qin Hai be arranged to do such important reception work?

He is still reliable politically. Guo Ming argued. Compared with Guo Ming, Xiao Liu's rank is far behind, but he came down from the province, and he was in charge of foreign affairs, so he seemed to hold the authority of an imperial envoy, so Guo Ming had to be careful in front of him.

The cooperation with the Fukuoka Club was contacted by Qin Hai in Pujiang. After the foreign guests arrive in Pingyuan, they must find Qin Hai. This is not a matter of whether we arrange or not. Guo Ming said.

Xiao Liu said: Major Guo, I didn't have time to report to you just now. During the inspection of the Qingfeng factory by the foreign guests this morning, Qin Hai has been chatting with the foreign guests, talking about their families and their resumes. Content that has nothing to do with inspection work is a clear violation of foreign affairs discipline.

Oh, are there any clear rules on the discipline of foreign affairs? Guo Ming choked on neither soft nor hard. His own children beat him up, and Xiao Liu sued Qin Hai, Guo Ming would not follow suit, otherwise at least one lax evaluation of him would not be able to avoid him.

Regarding the matter of Qin Hai chatting with foreign guests, Guo Ming can't tell whether it is right or wrong. In his opinion, as long as the foreign guests have no dissatisfaction, and Qin Hai does not disclose state secrets, then the two sides can establish a good personal relationship. , should the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, right?

Xiao Liu was choked by Guo Ming's words. He just felt that Qin Hai was too showy in the morning, which made him a little uncomfortable, so he subconsciously found some reason to complain. But if there was anything wrong with Qin Hai's actions, he couldn't make any sense. As a staff member of the foreign affairs department, he knew that the discipline of foreign affairs has been loosened a lot in recent years. There are fewer and fewer restrictions on the behavior of foreign guests, and there are no longer restrictions on the interactions between Chinese and foreign guests.

Even the staff of their foreign affairs office themselves will talk about some family matters when accompanying foreign guests, so that the foreign guests can find the intimacy of being at home. Therefore, Xiao Liu really couldn't find any basis for saying that there was something wrong with Qin Hai talking about housework with Kunio Kishida.

Now the foreign guest wants to visit Qin Hai's house and communicate with Qin Hai's family. I just want to know about the policy. Is it allowed? Guo Ming knew that he had suppressed Xiao Liu, so he didn't continue to ask. , but asked the most concerned question.

Xiao Liu was so embarrassed that he didn't dare to talk nonsense. After all, the other party is a parent official. If he behaves badly, the other party can complain about himself to the Foreign Affairs Office. He thought for a while and said, First, we need to find out what is going on with Qin Hai's family and whether they are politically reliable.

We have already understood this. Guo Mingdao, Qin Hai's father was a farmer, and now he has contracted the agricultural machinery factory in their town, and is renting equipment from the iron and steel factory in our county to produce some export products.

If that's the case, then it's not a big problem. Little Liu said, We have also received such foreign guests in the past. They were very interested in ordinary Chinese families and asked us to visit ordinary Chinese families. Requests, we will always be satisfied.

However, I need to trouble County Magistrate Guo to specifically tell Qin Hai and his father that it is okay to receive foreign guests, but they cannot do things that will damage the country's dignity. , not allowed...

Xiao Liu said more than a dozen inaccuracies in one breath, which made Guo Ming feel a little chilled, so he had to call Qin Hai over directly and let him listen to Xiao Liu's teachings with his own ears. Qin Hai didn't have the patience of Guo Ming. After listening to a few things, he waved his hand and interrupted Xiao Liu's words: Comrade Xiao Liu, stop talking nonsense. It is impossible for me to do such a thing. matter.

I'm taking precautions and giving you a vaccination first. When we are doing foreign affairs work, we often encounter such things, which seriously damage the image of our country. I can tell you that even some comrades in our foreign affairs department have experienced Without the temptation of foreign material conditions, some lesbians even... Xiao Liu said angrily, he didn't know why he couldn't help but feel angry when he saw Qin Hai, and even couldn't help slipping some words that shouldn't be said from his mouth Out.

Stop, stop. Qin Hai raised his hands in a obstructive manner, interrupted Xiao Liu, and said, This is something your people can do, don't fall on us. We are the working class, and we all have It's not like you guys, okay?
