King of Industry

  Chapter 338 was named

  In meeting room No. 1 of the SJ City Government, the team led by Huang Zhigang was having a cordial and friendly meeting with members of the Bangziguo delegation.

  SJ City, in addition to Mayor Huang, was also accompanied by relevant leaders such as Executive Deputy Mayor Gao Tongzhou, Director of the Municipal Government Office Ma Jiang, and others.

  At this time, the exchange meeting has just started, and some deep-seated issues have not been discussed yet. Everyone just carefully examines each other and talks about some minor issues such as culture, education, and folk customs.

  Zhao Guoyang was sitting on the side seat, listening to the bigwigs on both sides practicing Tai Chi, but his mind had already drifted to the relevant situation of Bangziguo Daewoo Group.

   In the past, Zhao Guoyang knew some well-known companies in Bangzi Country very well.

   He has more or less dealt with giant multinational companies such as Daewoo Group, Hyundai Group, and Samsung Electronics.

  The Daewoo Group in front of him, although he has not been to the headquarters in person, he is familiar with the basic situation.

  Daewoo Group in the early 1990s should belong to its heyday.

  With the strong support of huge capital, the tentacles of this giant enterprise have almost penetrated into many industries such as foreign trade, shipbuilding, heavy equipment, and automobiles.

  Its heavy industry is not only in the country of Bangzi, but also has a certain weight among the industrial enterprises in the whole world.

  Especially in the shipbuilding industry, Daewoo Group is the domestic leader in Bangziguo, and its technical advantages in small and medium-sized civilian ships are still obvious.

  For Zhao Guoyang, his Xingtai International Trading Company was inextricably linked with ocean trade from the very beginning of its establishment.

  In the future, after his company becomes bigger and stronger, he will definitely buy some ocean-going ships in order to take the lead in foreign trade, or to have more flexible autonomy.

  In Zhao Guoyang's plan, if his Xingtai International Trading Company can establish a certain cooperative relationship with the Daewoo Group, it will be much more convenient for purchasing ships and introducing technology.

   Just when Zhao Guoyang was absent-minded, he accidentally raised his eyes, and found that the beautiful girl sitting in the seat not far from Jin Yuzhong in Bangziguo was looking at him.

  Suddenly looked at each other, Zhao Guoyang politely smiled at him, and then quickly moved his gaze elsewhere.

  He muttered in his heart: This girl has taken the wrong medicine, why are you staring at me? You said that you are an entourage, shouldn't you listen carefully to Chairman Jin's speech and take notes? Really incompetent…”

  When I was greeted at the airport, the entourage from the Bangzi Country did not introduce all of them.

   Except for a few important figures such as Kim Woo-joong and Park Il-shin, the rest of them were called "Mr. XX" and "Ms. XX" by the translators, and no specific positions were mentioned.

  This beautiful girl with capable short hair and a beautiful face, Zhao Guoyang only knows her name is Jin Xiuzhu, but he doesn't know what position she holds in Daewoo Group.

  However, seeing her unrestrained appearance, Zhao Guoyang reckoned that she was either big-hearted, or she often followed the boss to attend high-level meetings, which was why she was so calm.

   After thinking about it for a while, Zhao Guoyang heard Mayor Huang Zhigang start to speak.

   It should be said that Mayor Huang's boldness and knowledge are absolutely unquestionable.

  As soon as he opened his voice, it gave people a sense of something to say, and people were willing to listen to it.

  Mayor Huang smiled and said: "Thank you Chairman Jin and Special Envoy Park for attaching great importance to our SJ city. Historically speaking, China and your country are friendly neighbors separated by a strip of water, and the relationship between them is very deep."

   "It's really gratifying that you can attach so much importance to this visit and send such a large investigation team to visit!"

   "In the past ten or twenty years, your country's economy has developed rapidly and achieved remarkable achievements. This is a great inspiration to us."

   "Whether it is from the whole of China or from the individual of our SJ city, I hope that through your visit this time, we can further strengthen bilateral cooperation..."

  After Mayor Huang finished speaking, Jin Yuzhong stood up in the middle of the opposite row, bowed politely, and said with some respect: "Mayor Huang's speech is very incisive, and I completely agree with it."

"Our Daewoo Group has always been open to cooperation with your country. SJ is the economic center of your country and the most dynamic city. We are here this time because we want to take a walk around , Take a look and see what projects are available for in-depth cooperation with SJ City!"

After Jin Yuzhong finished speaking, Gao Tongzhou, the deputy mayor of SJ City, said: "Mr. Jin, please rest assured that several representative manufacturers in SJ City have been arranged by our city government. You Members of the delegation, you can go and have a look at any time!"

   It can be seen that both Jin Yuzhong and the board members around him are very satisfied with the statement of the SJ city government, and there are happy smiles on the faces of several people.

   On the contrary, the special envoy Park Il-shin seemed to pay little attention to economic activities.

  Although the other person sat upright and looked serious, his eyes were somewhat erratic, and his attention did not seem to be on the meeting.

  The expressions of Bangziguo and his party were all seen by Zhao Guoyang who was sitting next to him.

   Regarding Park Yishen's strangeness, he had some ideas in his mind, and estimated that the special envoy would definitely propose to have a private meeting with Director Zhao later.

   Zhao Guoyang didn't pay much attention to diplomatic matters. In fact, even if he wanted to pay attention, he couldn't find the right way.

   After all, Director Zhao Rong is not familiar with him, so it is impossible to bring him along during the meeting with Park Yishen.

  Based on this point, Zhao Guoyang now focuses more on Jin Yuzhong and the Daewoo Group directors around him.

   Among Jin Yuzhong's entourage this time, the two most important people should be Jin Huansheng, chairman and general manager of Daewoo Group Motor Company, and Jin Mingxuan, chairman of Daewoo Group Shipping Company.

   These two people, one is in charge of the largest company of the Daewoo Group, and the other is in charge of the most profitable company of the Daewoo Group, and they are all pivotal figures in the entire group.

  Zhao Guoyang knew that if he wanted to gain something during the visit of the Bangziguo delegation, he might have to pay more attention to these two people.

  The reason is very simple. Although Jin Yuzhong has a high status, he only sets the general direction of the group, and he will not interfere too much with the specific affairs of the following branches.

  Whether it is your own Xingtai International Trading Company or Songqi Group, if you want to develop in-depth cooperation with Daewoo Group, you can only talk to Jin Huansheng and Jin Mingxuan, and it is impossible to directly communicate with Jin Yuzhong.

  The meeting has been going on for nearly an hour, and the negotiation atmosphere between the two parties is still very harmonious.

  Basically, people from Bangzi Kingdom are more cautious when speaking, and there is not much showing off or contempt in their tone.

   Just when Zhao Guoyang thought that the meeting was about to end like this and it was time to move on to the next session, the beautiful girl in the opposite row whispered a few words to the female translator beside her.

  When the girl was talking, everyone turned their attention to Bangziguo and the female translator. Even Jin Yuzhong slowly turned his head.

   Seeing that Chairman Jin had no intention of objecting, the female translator hesitated for a while, and then spoke in Chinese the question that the girl had just asked her.

   "Uh...Miss Jin has a few questions, and I want to ask Mr. Zhao over there." The female translator glanced at Zhao Guoyang as she spoke.

  In her eyes, Zhao Guoyang, a young man who may be younger than herself, has an indescribable calm temperament. This kind of mature man's unique temperament is exactly what girls in Bangzi Country appreciate most.

  When such a temperament suddenly appears in a boy who is too young, it is self-evident to give people a strange feeling.

  After the translator spoke, the eyes of the audience instantly focused on Zhao Guoyang.

  Seeing Huang Zhigang's interested gaze, Zhao Guoyang couldn't help but feel a little speechless.

   Sure enough, just when Zhao Guoyang was about to bury his head and pretend to be stupid, Huang Zhigang said: "Guoyang, someone mentioned you by name, so you can explain it to him!"

   "Okay, Mayor Huang, I understand!" Zhao Guoyang nodded helplessly, and looked at the instigator.

   Jin Xiuzhu didn't mean to be timid at Zhao Guoyang's doubtful and puzzled eyes. On the contrary, she found it very interesting, and a smile appeared on her face.

  She turned her head, looked at the female translator beside her, and slowly spoke out her question.

   "Mr. Zhao, Ms. Jin Xiuzhu would like to ask you, what do young people like you in your country think of our Republic of Korea?"

   "After all, there was an unpleasant experience between our two countries. She really wants to know whether the new generation of Chinese young people still have resentment towards our country."

  After the lady translator said this, the meeting room immediately fell silent, so quiet that even a needle could be heard falling to the ground.

  Indeed, in the eyes of everyone, the question raised by Jin Xiuzhu is really too difficult to answer. If it is not done well, it may even cast a shadow over Bangziguo's visit this time.

  In the war decades ago, although neither side took the initiative, after all, everyone had fought with real swords and guns on the battlefield, and the winner was decided.

  Jin Xiuzhu raised this question, it is indeed not abrupt, but most of the time, everyone consciously ignores it.

  However, now that this question is being asked, Zhao Guoyang will inevitably have to answer it. Excessive evasion will also complicate things.
