Hello 1983

  Chapter 297 Oriental Rubik's Cube

   "Hehe, fortunately we have already prepared."

  Director Zhou soon became full of confidence again. For this Canton Fair, he learned from Liu Qingshan early on and was quite well prepared.

  At this time, the clerk Liu came over with a big color TV in his arms. It was a hot day and his shirt was stuck to his back.

   "Hey, your Bishui County can produce color TV sets, haven't you heard of it?"

  The adjacent booths also paid close attention to the movement in Bishui County. The county magistrate Zhao who spoke was also an old acquaintance last year.

  Production of color TVs, stop dreaming, there are only a few manufacturers in the country that can produce color TVs?

   And even if it is produced, it is not as advanced as foreign home appliances. If you get it here, isn't that a shame?

   "County Zhao, I'm not as joking as you."

   Director Zhou responded, and then took out a video recorder. After connecting it to the TV, he inserted a video tape and fiddled with it there.

  Unknowingly, a few more spectators gathered around, wanting to see what new tricks Bishui County has come up with.

  A picture suddenly appeared on the TV, it was a vast flax field, flax was blooming with small blue flowers, and a breeze blew by, like a blue-green ocean, which looked very spectacular.

  As soon as the screen turns, it turns to piles of flax stacks like hills, as well as the production workshop, and finally there are bolts of linen.

  At the same time, there is also a voice-over, and the simultaneous introduction is in English: "Bishui County Flax Factory is located in the Songnen Plain. There is fertile black soil here, and the flax planted has high fiber content..."

   Damn it!

  The people watching the excitement suddenly realized, and some people exclaimed: "Isn't this the kind of documentary?"

   Director Zhou showed a complacent attitude: "Wrong, the accurate name is a promotional film!"

  It is vivid, such a flowing picture, and the most intuitive feeling, compared with those brochures printed on cardboard, it is more than one level higher.

  At first, everyone thought that their own brochures were good, but now they compare them, and they feel that they are a bit out of hand.

   And they are all very aggrieved, as if you struggled to climb to the second floor, only to find that people have already seen the scenery on the eighth floor.

  This Bishui County is too irritating, and it can always tinker with new things. How do you think people figured it out?

   "Old Zhou, you put a lot of thought into this promotional video, right? Who made it?"

   County Magistrate Zhao asked next to him, his tone a bit sour.

  Director Zhou took a look at Liu Qingshan who was selling goods there, and said with great pride in his tone, "That goes without saying, of course it is our little lucky star of Bishui County, Comrade Liu Qingshan!"

   Sure enough, it was him!

  County Zhao showed an unexpected look: "I knew that if you relied on you, Lao Zhou, you wouldn't be able to think of such a trick. You don't have much ink in your belly."

  Director Zhou was not angry at all: "Hey, we are all mutual, who told us that there is Comrade Xiao Liu in our county, there is nothing we can do about it."

  These words made everyone's teeth itch a little, and they wanted to smash the TV.

  Director Zhou's mouth is not forgiving: "You guys, the realm is too low, and you can't play tricks if you have the energy. You must be consistent with the outside world and negotiate a few big deals with foreign businessmen. This is the ability."

   That's right, when those people heard it, they immediately felt a surge of energy in their hearts: Don't be complacent, Bishui County, you have to talk about products in the end!

  At this time, Feng Shouxin from the district, accompanied by a deputy director of the Provincial Department of Commerce, also inspected this place. At first glance, he was also attracted by the TV.

  In the TV, the production process of fermented bean curd is being played, and there is a voice-over introduction: "The fermented bean curd products produced in Bishui County are added with more than 20 local wild medicinal materials. They are rich in nutrition, and both medicine and food are nourishing..."

   "Haha, it's not bad, it makes me want to taste it."

  The deputy director also nodded repeatedly.

  Feng Shouxin also smiled: "This is the Bishui County delegation, the one that launched the satellite last year."

  The smile on the deputy director's face was even stronger, and he shook hands with Zheng Hongqi and Director Zhou, and encouraged him: "Then we must continue to work hard this year and strive for another success."

   "Leader, please rest assured, we will work hard to live up to the trust of the leader and the entrustment of the general public."

   Zheng Hongqi also quickly stated his position, and he is also familiar with this kind of scene.

  The leader couldn't help being in a good mood, and patted Zheng Hongqi on the shoulder: "We are short of such energetic and intelligent young cadres now!"

   This sentence made the people next to me envious. This is equivalent to opening the upward channel.

  After talking for a few words, the leader went to inspect other booths. Liu Qingshan winked at Zheng Hongqi and pointed upwards, but Zheng Hongqi gave him a blank look.

   "Hurry up and work!"

   "I'm just a worker." Liu Qingshan muttered.

   "The things you fiddled with just now are all your own wild products, okay?"

  Zheng Hongqi also has nothing to do with him, feeling that sometimes Brother Qingshan is really like his naughty younger brother.

  Director Zhou also came to Liu Qingshan to help him sort out those mountain goods. He accidentally saw the price tag on it, and couldn't help but gasped.

   "Brother Qingshan, your price, price..."

  Liu Qingshan took over the conversation: "It's a bit tall, isn't it? I'm just trying my luck."

  Director Zhou couldn't say anything: Anyway, it's your own goods, so it's up to you.

  The next morning, the Canton Fair officially started, and everyone was busy again, especially in front of the booth in Bishui County, there were always a group of foreign businessmen watching the promotional video with great interest.

   There are still some effects. For example, linen, which was very popular last year, has been ordered by regular customers early this year.

  This is a good sign, proving that the product already has a certain degree of consumer stickiness.

   "Oh, this thing is actually edible, I don't know how it tastes?"

  A young foreigner became interested when he saw the section promoting fermented bean curd products.

   Upon seeing this, Clerk Liu quickly took out a small altar, and was about to open it for the foreign merchants to taste.

  Liu Qingshan had sharp eyes, glanced at the trademark on it, and quickly stopped him: "This is Qingfang."

   Clerk Liu took a look, isn't it? In his haste, he took the wrong jar. This jar is stinky tofu.

   Immediately, he broke out in a cold sweat: If this is the opening of the altar, the foreign businessmen will not be smoked and run away.

  So he hurriedly changed another jar of fermented bean curd and cut off the sealing strip.

  The young foreigner eagerly put his nose up and sucked it twice: "Oh, it smells a little weird?"

  At this time, Liu Qingshan handed over two slices of bread, skillfully spread a small piece of fermented bean curd on one of the slices, and then put the two slices of bread together:

   "Sir, please have a taste."

   "Don't you need butter?"

  The foreigner muttered in his mouth, and really took it and took a big bite.

  The foreigners stretched their necks to watch him chew, while Liu Qingshan began to introduce: "Sufu contains a variety of amino acids that are beneficial to the human body, which can improve digestion and increase appetite."

   "Well, after eating, I really feel a big appetite."

   Swallowing the bread in his mouth in two or three bites, the foreigner also nodded and said.

  When the other foreigners saw it, they couldn’t help but want to try it. They all maintained a strong curiosity about a food that they had never touched before.

  There were a lot of people, Liu Qingshan and the others were quickly overwhelmed, and a few foreigners simply did it themselves.

  Suddenly, there was a strange cry: "I buy it, it stinks, it stinks, where are the garbage bags, I can't help but want to vomit!"

  At the same time, a strange smell began to spread in the air, and several foreigners pinched their noses and kept cursing "shit!"

  Director Zhou took a look, and screamed in his heart: Who is this, you owe me so much, why did you open that jar of stinky tofu just now!

  Liu Qingshan quickly covered the jar containing the stinky tofu again, and then stuffed two slices of bread to the guy who was yelling to vomit, and comforted him.

   "This is a magical food produced in our country. It smells bad and tastes good. The more you taste it, the more delicious it is. Friends, do you feel it?"

   "Oh, I just felt like I opened Pandora's box, but it's much better now."

  The emotion of the foreigner gradually calmed down, and he blinked his eyes and nodded:

   "It was really a strange feeling just now, can I try it again?"

  Liu Qingshan also admired this guy, so he gave him a thumbs up, and gave him a little bit of stinky tofu, and spread it on the bread.

   This guy frowned, took a bite, and then gradually relaxed his brows.

   After swallowing it, he frowned and took another bite, then stretched his brow again, and this cycle continued until the two slices of bread were eaten.

  Liu Qingshan handed him another can of Jianlibao, this guy was not polite, he just opened it and drank it.

  Now, Jianlibao has not been sold to the whole country, just like Liu Qingshan and the others, there is no shadow at all.

   "Oh, it's really amazing food, I swear, I will never forget this feeling." The guy was rambling, and he was still a chatterbox.

  Looking at Jianlibao, Liu Qingshan had an idea: "This drink is called Oriental Magic Water, and this stinky tofu is Oriental Rubik's Cube."

  Since this year's Olympic Games, Jianlibao has been called the Oriental Magic Water in the world, and it has gained a lot of limelight. Of course, Liu Qingshan doesn't mind it, and it's so popular.

   "Oriental Rubik's Cube, oh, it's a very appropriate name. I believe that this cube-shaped food has magical powers. Although it smells bad, I still want to eat it now. I'm really fascinated by you, haha!"

  The foreigner was gesticulating, but he had no shame at all, and took away the jar of Kaifeng stinky tofu, saying it was a reward for the first taster.

  Even Liu Qingshan had to sigh: This guy's taste is very unique.

  Because he made such a fuss, some people actually placed several orders, but the orders were all fermented bean curd, which they could still accept.

  As for stinky tofu, no one cares about it. After all, there are only a few people with unique taste.

  At this time, an old voice suddenly came: "Damn it, these foreign devils know a lot, the smellier the stinky tofu, the more delicious it is,"

   Liu Qingshan's eyes lit up: This voice sounds familiar.

   Then I heard the same voice, and continued to say: "Xiaoshanzi, you little bastard, open a jar for you to taste first, I haven't tasted this taste for many years!"
