Return to Singapore 1995

Tang Jiaming said to the secretary: "I understand. Please ask them to sit in the conference room for a while. Mr. Li and I will go there after we are done!"

Li Xiaofan stood up and said: "Brother Ming, how about I go over to receive them first?"

He was stopped by Tang Jiaming: "Afan, listen to me, sit down first! Don't be anxious or too polite to deal with these country bumpkins. Just leave them alone for a while..."

After Li Xiaofan introduced the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan and West Lake in Hangzhou, the famous Xiling Seal Society, and the most famous art masters and Chinese painting masters Pan Tianshou and Pan Gongkai father and son in Li Xiaofan's hometown, Tang Xinyi has gradually developed a yearning for West Lake and China Academy of Art.

Li Xiaofan continued to introduce: "I have a cousin in my hometown who also has the surname Tang, Tang Qianqian. She will take the college entrance examination in mainland China this summer. In fact, she is also very interested in the China Academy of Art. Before I returned to China this time, she was also actively preparing to take art exams such as sketching. Her interest is the dyeing and weaving and clothing design majors of the China Academy of Art. She is very interested in this fashion industry. Her grades are very good. If she can pass the exam, maybe you can become alumni!"

"Really? If so, it would be great. In case I go to Hangzhou for further studies, I will have friends!"

After chatting for a few words, Tang Xinyi's phone rang. It was time for her bestie to go shopping in Orchard Road.

"Brother Xiaofan, thank you for your introduction! Brother, you guys go first. I have something to go out. Let's talk next time!"

"Okay, let's talk later!"

After Tang Xinyi left, Li Xiaofan briefly explained to Tang Jiaming the business background of sunglasses with Shah Rukh and Uncle Singh.

"Brother Ming, I want to register a company in Singapore, but the Singapore Business Registration Bureau stipulates that a company registered in Singapore must have at least one director who is a Singapore citizen or PR. Can you help me?"

"Sure, it's easy to register a company in Singapore for such a small matter! How do you want me to help you?"

"When registering a new company, I would like you to be a small shareholder and local director of the new company, and then the registered address will be placed with you. I will be responsible for all the expenses incurred in registering the company, but at that time I may have to ask your assistant to help run errands at the Singapore Business Registration Bureau ACRA. Is it convenient?"

"Why is it inconvenient? It's just a matter of signing a few words, no problem!" Tang Jiaming agreed without thinking.

After Tang Jiaming finished speaking, he thought of something, took out a box from the drawer and handed it over, saying: "Afan, this is a small gift from your father!"

When Li Xiaofan saw the outer packaging, the gift was a bit expensive. It turned out to be the Motorola 8900 mobile phone that had just appeared on the market, the same model that Tang Jiaming is using now.

A few years ago, Motorola launched the MicroTAC, the first mobile phone with a keyboard hidden under a plastic flip cover. Earlier this year, the first flip phone, the Motorola 8900, was released. Although the flip cover was only designed at the keyboard position, this design had a far-reaching impact and can be regarded as the ancestor of flip phones.

"Brother Ming, I can't afford such an expensive gift! I passed by the Tampines Telecom store a few days ago and saw this phone. It's very expensive!"

"Afan, this is given to you by your father! If you don't accept it, your father said he would return the agarwood bracelet to you!"

"Well, I'd rather obey than be respectful. Thank you, father!"

"Well, that's right! Afan, I've asked the telecommunications store to activate the Singtel SIM card and network for you. It's cheaper to bind the phone card to my name. In addition, the basic monthly fee for the first year has been paid. You can use it with confidence!"

"Brother Ming, binding it to your name means you are helping me pay for the phone bill. I really feel bad about it!"

"Afan, we are brothers! Take it out and have a look. Do you like it?"

After Tang Jiaming finished speaking, he helped Li Xiaofan take out the phone inside.

Compared with the original brick-style mobile phone, the Motorola 8900 is much smaller in size, with a size of 139×58×26 mm and a weight of 218 grams. The original battery is a 6 V nickel-metal hydride battery, and the streamline is very beautiful.

At that time, this phone could last for more than four hours on call and 85 hours on standby. It has a fully graphical black and white screen that can display text and logos. In addition to the SIM card space, the integrated memory is enough to hold 100 phone book entries.

The phone bezel is used to protect the keyboard. When it is closed, the key lock is activated. When you receive a call, you will accept the call by opening the call and close the call again by closing the call.

There is also a retractable extension antenna on the top.

When the Motorola 8900 mobile phone was launched at the beginning of this year, it caused a great sensation. At present, this 8900 mobile phone has become a must-have for successful people in Singapore. In his previous life, Li Xiaofan used this mobile phone after returning to China in 1998. At that time, this mobile phone was also very popular in China.

"Yeah, it's so beautiful, I like it! Brother Ming, thank you!"

...

After taking a few sips of coffee, when Li Xiaofan and Tang Jiaming entered the conference room, Shah Rukh and Uncle Singh were still admiring the beautiful scenery outside the conference room window. They stood by the window and pointed excitedly:

"Wow, that's the Singapore River and Merlion Park over there, so beautiful!"

"Wow, down here is the Fullerton Building, which used to be the Singapore General Post Office!"

The two uncles were like two grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden. It was the first time for them to come to such a high-end office building. They were very excited and full of freshness when they saw such a beautiful scenery.

After Tang Jiaming knocked on the door frame of the conference room, Shah Rukh and Uncle Singh turned around.

"Hello, Li!" Uncle Singh greeted Li Xiaofan happily and introduced: "Li, let me introduce to you, this is Mr. Shah Rukh!"

Shah Rukh is a middle-aged uncle who is similar in age to Uncle Singh, but he looks gorgeously dressed and richer than Uncle Singh.

Li Xiaofan extended his hand and said in fluent English: "Mr. Shah Rukh, nice to meet you! You two, let me introduce to you. This is my partner, Mr. Tang Jiaming, MD of Singapore Minghua Holdings Pte. Ltd.!"

"I'm Tang Jiaming, nice to meet you two!"

Tang Jiaming handed over his business card politely.

Shah Rukh also handed his business card to Tang Jiaming and Li Xiaofan: Shah Rukh, executive director of Singapore Shah Rukh Trading Pte. Ltd., whose address is Serangoon Road, Serangoon.

The Serangoon Road area is Singapore's famous "Little India". Just like overseas Chinese Chinatowns, Little India is a gathering place for the Indian ethnic group in Singapore. It is like a microcosm of India, so it is called Little India. India.

In Li Xiaofan's impression, the place is particularly lively and fragrant, especially during festivals, when the Indian style becomes even more pronounced. It's like a splendid fairy tale world. Colorful lights and decorations are everywhere on the streets.

After the pleasantries, everyone drank the coffee served by Assistant Tang Jiaming and got into the substantive topic.

Shah Rukh held up the large-size sunglasses he took from Uncle Singh yesterday and said to Li Xiaofan:

"Mr. Li, are all the sunglasses you provided produced in mainland China?"

"Yes, I introduced it to you on the phone last night. The factory is in the nearby southeastern coastal area..."

“Have these products undergone relevant product quality certification?”

"These products were originally exported to Europe and the United States, so they have passed the European CE certification, as well as the American FDA certification and drop test..."

"Wow, CE certification, FDA certification and drop test have been done, that's great!"
