I run a clinic in the United States

Chapter 248: The meal is not in vain

The boss is not very fast, but he walks with wind. That kind of aura is cultivated by living in a high position for a long time.But he is not condescending. Instead, he is vigorous, shrewd and courageous, mixed with a somewhat approachable and down-to-earth feeling.

Zhou Qiao walked a few steps quickly and followed behind the big boss, but he didn't dare to "keep pace" with the big boss. I heard that some people are particularly particular about this. Some young people who have just emerged from society often don't understand the mystery, and they can't help but offend others invisibly. Know.

Zhou Qiao doesn't make this mistake.

Elena and Ava are even half a step behind Zhou Qiao.

"Come to the front." The boss glared displeasedly and waved.

Zhou Qiao had no choice but to take a step forward and reach the old man's side.

Although the old man looks energetic, energetic and in his 60s, in fact he is already over [-] and his hair has turned gray.

"When did BJ arrive?" the boss asked as he walked.Along the way, many people looked over in surprise.I don’t know where Zhou Qiao and the other three come from.

"It's been two or three days. I've been touring various attractions. Minister, is it too early for us to go to dinner?" Because Zhou Qiao looked at the time and it was only 04:30.

"It's okay. I made an agreement with the canteen. They made it a little early today. I haven't had lunch yet." The boss touched his stomach, looking like he was starving.

"Ah?" Zhou Qiao was stunned and said quickly, "You have to pay attention to your health."

"I forgot about it when I got busy." The old man nodded, suddenly gave a thumbs up, and praised, "I heard about your award in the United States, you did a great job! In your early twenties, you beat so many top hospitals three to forty The attending expert who is 40 years old is amazing!”

"You have given me the award. I will try my best and perform my best." Zhou Qiao said modestly.

Not long after, we arrived at the canteen. In a small private room, six simple dishes, one soup, and a bowl of rice were already prepared.

"Do these two beauties know how to use chopsticks?" The boss looked and saw that there were no knives and forks on the table, mainly because he had not told the canteen about these little things before.

"Yes, yes. They are Elena and Ava, orphans adopted by my aunt in the United States." Zhou Qiao gave a brief introduction.

Then, the four of them sat down, and the boss, probably really hungry, started to eat.Before I even had a few bites, the phone call came again.

"I'm eating. Let's do this. Wait for me for half an hour. In half an hour, you can take people to the conference room." The boss put down his mobile phone. When he saw Zhou Qiao and the other three holding their chopsticks, he quickly greeted him and joked, " You're welcome, do you think the food is not good?"

"No, no, it's very good." Zhou Qiao served the twin girls a piece of cabbage, and said, "Try it, this dish is good, it's a famous dish at the state banquet."

Elena and Ava looked at each other and thought, aren't they just ordinary cabbage?It’s not like I haven’t eaten it before.

In the past few days, Zhou Qiao took them to eat, a combination of meat and vegetables, including fried cabbage among the vegetarian dishes.

However, this cabbage looked clear and watery, but it was really different in the mouth. The twin girls' eyes suddenly lit up and they said, "It's really delicious!" and quickly picked up several slices.

how to say?

The taste is very complex, with many mixed meaty aromas, but it is oily but not greasy, fragrant but not messy. When you eat it in your mouth, various flavors emerge repeatedly, which is endless aftertaste. It is particularly refreshing and cannot be described in words. .

"Xiao Zhou, tell me about your life or work in the United States? What do you know about it?" The boss shook his head and smiled, and began to ask.I thought to myself, this guy is very lucky.

Alas~, it would be better if I were decades younger.

Zhou Qiao picked some important ones and explained them in detail.It's a report.There is no shame in reporting to this big boss.Many people haven't had this opportunity yet.

The boss nodded while eating, and asked a few questions from time to time, and Zhou Qiao answered honestly.

"You are too reserved, and you lack a bit of the excitement you had when you won the award in the United States!"

Zhou Qiao said with a smile: "It depends on the person. Isn't it because your aura is too strong?"

In front of Governor Hulk, he can talk and laugh freely and informally, but for some reason, when he has a working meal here, one word always pops up in his mind: "Be careful in your words and actions."

"Haha, stop flattering me." The boss seemed to be full. He wiped it with a wet wipe, then stood up to get a small bowl and a spoon.

Zhou Qiao quickly showed his courtesy and said, "Let me help you!"

"Sit down, sit down!" the boss said, gently pressing his hand to signal.

Zhou Qiao had no choice but to sit down, and then he was immediately stunned.

At the same time, the service staff hiding outside the door, ready to take orders at any time, were also shocked!

I saw the boss filled a bowl of chicken soup and handed it to Zhou Qiao.

"Why, what's so embarrassing about this? Thank you, thank you." Zhou Qiao quickly stood up and took it with both hands.

Then, the boss filled two small bowls and handed them to Elena and Ava.

The twin girls were also flattered and followed suit. Like Zhou Qiao, they stood and took it with both hands and thanked them repeatedly. "You're welcome." The boss said in fluent English.Then he asked Elena and Ava some things about work and life.

Elena said that she was learning accounting and financial knowledge and had already signed up for a training class. Ava said that she was learning some nursing knowledge and planned to apply for a university for further study.

The boss gave a few words of approval.

"I may go to the United States for a visit in a while. If I go to San Francisco then, I will visit your clinic."

"That's great, a great honor!" Zhou Qiao said in surprise.If this is the case, you will have to decorate the clinic properly after you return.

"Here, please remember my mobile phone number." The boss picked up the phone and looked for his number.

So, Zhou Qiao exchanged contact information with the boss and added each other as friends on a certain communication software.

In fact, in the face of new things, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will never lag behind or be absent.The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and embassies and consulates stationed abroad have opened more than 100 new media accounts, including the popular "Consular Express" WeChat platform.

There are not many people who are qualified to join the big boss’s private account.However, even if Zhou Qiao has contact information, he will not call rashly if there is nothing too important.

"By the way, we have actually been cooperating with France in nuclear power. We hope that the areas of cooperation will continue to expand and the cooperative relationship will continue to deepen in the future."

Zhou Qiao was shocked, why did the boss suddenly mention this?Is this information well-informed enough?But think about it, it is a big country after all, and there is no way that people would not know about Loya making such a big fuss in Italy.

"The contract is about to expire recently. We want to change the way we cooperate. The content of the renewal will change."

Zhou Qiao pondered for a moment and asked, "What are the changes? Can you let me know in advance?"

He pretended to be stupid and said that he didn't know, which would definitely be meaningless. The boss said this just because he knew it.

As for the terms of cooperation, if it was really unfavorable to Luo Ya, there was nothing he could do about it, and Luo Ya was not a soft persimmon.But thinking about it, big countries have always emphasized win-win cooperation, so it shouldn't be too harsh.

Sure enough, the boss casually mentioned a few important points. Fortunately, Zhou Qiao estimated that they should all accept it. The most important thing is that there are many benefits.However, he is naturally not good and has no right to promise anything.

Although some of the benefits, if you think about it carefully, are given to Luo Ya alone, to achieve these cooperations, Luo Ya needs to operate.

Although Loya occupies the majority of several nuclear power plants on the border between France and Italy, Loya's shares in other nuclear power plants are not the largest one, but there is no doubt that Loya plays a very important role in the entire EDF group. One person.

Although the last time he and Luo Ya got together was relatively short, he also heard Luo Ya mention that there are several big problems in the French nuclear power plant. One of them is the serious shortage of skilled workers, and the workers in France are still there. There was a strike, which seriously affected the operation of the nuclear power plant.

In addition, the French are free and loose. Although no major nuclear accidents have occurred for the time being, those small nuclear incidents are not unrelated to their nature.

There is a joke on the Internet that sums up the four seasons of the year for the French. It says that the French go to work in the spring, go on vacation in the summer, go on strike in the autumn, and celebrate Christmas in the winter.

There are 150 holidays a year and eight to nine hundred strikes.

But saying that the French go on strike in autumn is actually a bit biased, because the French also like to go on strike in other seasons.As for the reasons for strikes, they are usually very simple: resolutely resist all reforms that want to make the French people more diligent!

Although there are exaggerated elements in it, it does clearly show the lazy and unworkable nature of the French.

But what China does not lack most is people, who are rigorous, responsible, diligent, and hard-working.Although nuclear power facilities exist in high-temperature and high-radiation environments, which require solid professional skills and knowledge, many people are willing to do so with high salaries as compensation and access to advanced technology after passing.

China's nuclear power is not weak and has advantages in many aspects, but it still needs more exchanges and cooperation with the outside world to learn from each other's strengths.

"You don't have to be too embarrassed. Just convey it privately. Whether it works or not is another matter. We still have some alternatives. As for business, we can talk about it." The boss said very reasonably.

Then, it turned to Zhou Qiao's clinic management, talking about the secret medicine and the repair of super-severe burns on Governor Hulk's daughter.

Zhou Qiao talked eloquently.

"What do you think of Hulk?" the boss asked.

"Governor Hulk is a very nice person, and he really wants to make a difference." Zhou Qiao naturally praised Governor Hulk highly. He is also one of the people who knows Governor Hulk well. He almost During this close meal together, Governor Hulk even gave him red wine brewed at his own winery.

Then he talked about Governor Hulk’s invitation to shoot some public service announcements, and his usual attitude towards the Chinese.

Governor Hulk was actually born in San Francisco and once served as the mayor of San Francisco. There are almost a quarter of Chinese Americans in San Francisco, which is considered a relatively pro-China faction.

"California is a great place!" the boss thought thoughtfully.

At the same time, outside, people came to eat in the cafeteria one after another, but they were all in the lobby outside.

It's just before five o'clock, and few people usually come so early. The main reason is that the news has spread that the boss has brought a few young people to dinner, and the boss even served them soup with his own hands. The treatment is incredible!
Everyone wants to come and see who it is.

Then, when Zhou Qiao and the others came out of the small private room, they noticed that many pairs of eyes glanced at them intentionally or unintentionally.
