Chapter 436 Attitude
The next few days, the trip went very smoothly.
It was a sunny day, and the cruise ship finally arrived at the destination and slowly approached the pier.
Ling Yao, Gu Qianyue, and Zhao Kun carried their luggage and came out of the room, followed the people who got off the ship, and walked towards the deck.
Standing at the bow, you can see the scenery of the pier in the distance. Various ships are docked at the pier. A huge cargo ship is unloading. One by one, the porters are sweating and moving the cargo on the ship to the car.
"Doctor Ling!"
Ling Yao heard Louis Rexton calling her, stopped, turned her head, and looked at him with a smile, "Mr. Rexton!" These days, Louis Rexton often invited her to dinner, and the two became friends.
Louis Rexton walked up to Ling Yao and smiled at her, "Doctor Ling, is there a car to pick you up? Or I can send someone to take you there. Which hotel did you book?"
"Thank you! No need, the car has been arranged." Ling Yao smiled and thanked. The car was arranged by the organizer of the summit, as was the hotel. When they got off the cruise ship, a car would pick them up and take them to the hotel.
Louis Rexton nodded, "If you encounter any problems in Country Y, you can always find me." He has an absolute status in Country Y.
"Okay." Ling Yao nodded in response.
As the bustling crowd walked off the cruise ship, they saw dozens of luxury cars parked in the parking lot at the pier.
"Dr. Ling, goodbye!" Louis Rexton saw his family's car coming to pick him up and said goodbye to Ling Yao.
"Goodbye, Mr. Rexton!"
Louis Rexton, surrounded by bodyguards, walked to a Rolls-Royce and got in the car. He turned around and waved to Ling Yao.
Ling Yao also smiled and waved to Louis Rexton, watching his car slowly go away.
Zhao Kun walked around the parking lot and couldn't find the car that came to pick them up. "Strange, why isn't it here? Wasn't it agreed to be at this time?" Seeing other people at the dock being picked up one by one, he became more and more anxious.
This was his first time going abroad with his boss, and he was the one who handled all the matters here. It had been half an hour since they got off the ship, and no car had come to pick them up.
"Didn't you find it?" Ling Yao walked to Zhao Kun's side.
"Yes, there was no car to pick us up." Zhao Kun frowned.
"It was probably delayed on the way. Let's wait a little longer." Gu Qianyue said.
Ling Yao nodded and saw a small restaurant not far away. "Let's go to the restaurant and sit down."
The three of them walked into the small restaurant and found a seat to sit down.
"Boss! I'll go to the counter to make a phone call to ask about the situation." Zhao Kun had the organizer's phone number in his hand.
"Okay." Ling Yao nodded.
Zhao Kun walked to the counter, pointed at the phone, and asked the staff at the counter, "Hello! Can I make a call?"
The staff glanced at Zhao Kun indifferently, and said in a cold tone: "10 Y yuan per minute, you need to pay 100 Y yuan as a deposit first."
Zhao Kun frowned slightly, took out 100 Y yuan and put it on the counter.
The staff took the 100 Y yuan and put it in his pocket. When he heard a customer calling him, he turned around and saw a couple from Country Y. He immediately smiled warmly and walked over, "Hello! Do you need my help?" He was completely different from what he was just now.
Zhao Kun shook his head and sighed, picked up the phone and made a call. Since Longteng Pharmaceuticals entered the international arena, he has come into contact with more and more foreigners, but the attitudes of most of these foreigners make him very dissatisfied.
They always act high and mighty, and are full of disdain for him.
He knows in his heart that this is because he is a Dragon. Now in the eyes of many foreigners, Dragon still remains in the impression of decades ago, and is regarded as a poor, backward and humble country.
Although Dragon has undergone earth-shaking changes and its economy is developing rapidly, this stereotype is still deeply rooted in the hearts of some foreigners. In their hearts, Dragon people are inferior.
Therefore, this summit is crucial. As long as Longteng Pharmaceutical can stand out from all the companies, it will let some foreigners know that their Longguo companies are not inferior to any companies in other countries, and their Longguo people are no worse than people in any other country. What people in other countries can do, they can do as well as Longguo people, and even do better.
When the call was connected, Zhao Kun said, "Hello! I am the person in charge of Longguo Longteng Pharmaceutical. When can your car arrive?"
"The car is broken. You can find a way yourself." The other party said indifferently and hung up the phone.
Zhao Kun listened to the busy tone from the other end, and his anger surged in his heart. He took several deep breaths to suppress his anger and called again, but this time the other party did not answer the phone at all.
Ling Yao saw Zhao Kun walking back with an ugly face, "What happened?"
"The other party said that the car broke down and asked us to find a solution ourselves." Zhao Kun's tone was helpless and angry.
Ling Yao nodded and stood up, "I'll make a call." She was not surprised to encounter such a situation. Not to mention now, even in the future, in the impression of many foreigners, Longguo is still a backward country, and they still look down on Longguo people.
Walking to the counter, Ling Yao was about to pick up the phone when the staff called her, "Madam! You need to pay 100 Y coins to make a call."
Ling Yao frowned slightly and looked at the other party with some displeasure, "Didn't I pay it just now?" She saw Zhao Kun just paid.
The staff showed a contemptuous smile, with a hint of disdain in his tone, "The previous one was the previous one, and the current one is the current one. If you are not willing to pay, you can't make this call."
Ling Yao showed a dissatisfaction on her face. She reached out from her pocket and took out 100 Y coins and put them on the table, then picked up the phone and dialed. She didn't want to argue with the other party, and there was no need to bother with such a person.
The staff smiled contemptuously and put the money in his pocket.
The call was quickly connected.
Ling Yao said concisely and clearly: "I am Ling Yao, I am at the dock now, come and pick me up."
After that, she hung up the phone. Before, she cooperated with Anthony Jays and invested in some businesses in various countries. She also has industries in Country Y.
Seeing Ling Yao coming back, Zhao Kun hurriedly asked: "Boss! What's wrong?" He had already made plans. If it really doesn't work, he will go out and rent a car.
