Ma Guoliang thought for a moment and then said, "Boss, we will probably not be able to reach the mainland for another week. We need you to make arrangements for our reception. Also... the Japanese expert is an undocumented immigrant, so we need to find a way to deal with that."
After a few seconds of silence on the phone, Chen Dong said, "I understand. I will make the arrangements."
The call between the two ended.
Ma Guoliang breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't know what Chen Dong's solution was, but the fact that the island nation's experts had no official status would always be a potential problem.
In addition, there are the family members of the island nation experts, but these become insignificant matters compared to the experts' status as island nation experts.
Inside the private room.
Chen Dong patted Zhou Huimin's hand and said with a smile, "You guys eat first, I'm going out to make a phone call, I have something to take care of."
"Okay, boss, we'll wait for you to come back and continue our drinking contest."
Everyone nodded, picked up their chopsticks, and ate and drank as usual, completely unaffected.
Chen Dong is easygoing and generous, which is a consensus among everyone.
Celebrities are human too; they also fawn over powerful figures.
Here, Chen Dong is definitely the main character.
Chen Dong walked out of the private room, and the group continued eating and chatting, their conversation revolving around him.
But what no one noticed was that Chen Dong's smile was very forced.
Cheng Pei-pei looked at Vivian Chow with a smile and joked, "President, I really envy your relationship with your boss. When you're filming a movie, he makes a special trip to visit you on set. Even if my husband knows I'm filming, he can only call to ask how I'm eating and staying. He can only ask if there's anything I'm not used to. I feel like throwing up just hearing that."
"Hahaha......"
Everyone burst into laughter, while Vivian Chow looked shy and secretly pleased.
Praising Chen Dongyuan made Zhou Huimin happier than praising herself.
After everyone finished laughing, their smiles froze for a moment. Perhaps only those who had experienced the same thing could truly understand.
Chen Baixiang, who was in charge of setting the mood, seemed to sense that something was off and raised his glass to speak loudly.
"Come on, let's drink and be merry while we can! We won't leave until we're drunk!"
"cheers!"
Everyone raised their glasses and then drank the wine in them in one gulp.
"Xingzai, the boss values you so much, let's have a drink alone. I hope you'll give him more guidance in the future."
"No, that's not true. I'm just doing my job."
Despite his quirky character in the movie, Ah Xing is a serious young man in real life. He doesn't talk much, and when others are talking, he just smiles and nods, giving people a sense of reliability.
This is Stephen Chow in his youth. He always gave people a humble attitude, but after acting for a long time, he gradually developed a self-centered personality.
He strives for perfection in everything; otherwise, he'd rather not make a film.
This is why many actors don't get along with him. In most people's eyes, this is a foolish thing to do. These days, who isn't making movies for the money? Only Ah Xing would constantly try to figure out the personality, behavior, and habits of different characters in the movies.
In another time and space, Stephen Chow has been in the industry for over ten years, but has not made many films.
Of course! I'm referring to actors who have had similar experiences to Stephen Chow.
For example, Tony Leung Ka-fai, known as the king of bad movies, once starred in more than ten movies in a single month, a record that remains unbroken to this day.
Compared to the lively scene in the private rooms, the outside was much quieter.
Not only did Chen Dong leave the private room on his own, but he also gave Wolong a wink before leaving.
The two came out of the private room one after the other.
"Boss!" Wolong asked Chen Dong.
Chen Dong nodded and replied, "Ma Guoliang has succeeded. Go to the front desk now and ask if there are any direct flights to Moscow. We need to get there before Ma Guoliang and the others arrive."
"Yes, boss!"
After Wolong left, Chen Dong did not return to the private room. Instead, he found a secluded corner and dialed Yulia's number.
The reason for making it so complicated is to avoid trouble later.
Sending experts lured from island nations to the Arctic Bear country would be a different story.
The land of polar bears is vast and sparsely populated.
Moreover, the domestic situation is still very chaotic, with traders from at least twenty neighboring countries operating within the United States.
They shipped goods from their own countries and earned a lot of money.
Finding a few people in this environment is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Furthermore, even a weakened Russian is still formidable; even if the island nation had a hundred times the courage, they wouldn't dare to cause trouble for the Russians.
Chen Dong had several considerations when he chose Polar Bear as a transit point.
First, the Arctic Bear Country serves as Chen Dong's rear base, and now Yulia manages his assets. Yulia's father, who is also Chen Dong's father-in-law, has an extremely strong military background.
Secondly, Russia has a highly developed heavy industry system, and as the polar bear country that inherited most of its assets, it naturally inherited this asset as well.
In addition, during the process of corporate privatization, Chen Dong acquired several such companies, making this the perfect time to study the data brought from the island nation.
Third, and most importantly, there is a secret trade route between polar bears and island nations.
The most famous incident was in 1987 when Toshiba, an island nation, sold several of the world's most advanced five-axis CNC machine tools to Russia through secret channels.
It was with these machine tools that Russia achieved a major breakthrough in submarine propellers and completely disappeared from the naval blockade imposed by NATO and the United States.
This attracted widespread attention around the world at the time.
