"Great, great, I'm very satisfied with this trademark. It clearly shows our national characteristics."
Lin Sanqi took a screwdriver, opened a controller, and shone a flashlight on it:
"Look, Boss, not only are there trademarks on the surface, but I've also stamped the word 'Shanghai' on the inside and key components of all the X-ray machines. When foreigners take them apart, they can be sure that these machines are made in our country, not just OEMs."
Leader Jing nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay, you've thought it through very carefully. This design is very clever and convincing, haha."
At this time he lowered his voice and asked:
"Which country produced these machines? Will their production records be traced? Or, when we announce the successful development of a 750 mAh X-ray machine, will foreign companies object? That would be a huge loss of face for us."
Lin Sanqi thought: Okay, I have to continue making up stories, it’s so fucking tiring.
"Don't worry, boss. The factory I'm manufacturing for isn't a formal one. It's considered an underground factory and illegal abroad. If it were a formal factory, who would dare to sell to us? So you can rest assured about this in China."
Now it was Leader Jing's turn to grumble, thinking that if they could produce such advanced machines, why did they still have to exist illegally?
"Okay, I'm relieved when you say that. These machines happen to be at the dock. I'll have the purchasing countries come and pick them up tomorrow."
Lin Sanqi pretended not to understand: "Boss, didn't you say that most of the products would be used domestically, with a small portion sold to foreign countries? Why are they all being sold now? What are our hospitals going to do?"
Leader Jing was a little embarrassed:
"It's not that we didn't anticipate the X-ray machine would be so popular. We just wanted to give it a try and tried to promote it to ambassadors from various countries at the National Day reception. The response was unexpectedly enthusiastic."
Lin Sanqi thought that as long as the leaders were not fools, they would definitely embrace modern technology and civilization, integrate their country into the mainstream world, and benefit the people.
But there are also some leaders who are either stupid or bad, and let their countries return to primitive society; for example, they cannot watch foreign movies and TV, cannot contact foreigners; and reject all foreign technological civilization except weapons.
Some even demand in extreme cases that women cannot go out on the streets and must cover their entire body with a robe. Women cannot work unless they go to school.
As a result, both boys and girls cannot go to school, and they are all treated like wooden men, making it easier for the top leaders to control them. Such leaders or rulers should make all people vigilant.
Leader Jing's tone suddenly became a little embarrassed:
"In fact, we received orders for more than 500 units this time, and 32 countries have made purchase requests from us. Our neighbor in Northeast China alone purchased 50 units."
Lin Sanqi thought that North Korea was now living the most comfortable life, with China and the Soviet Union providing them with financial support, and its domestic economy far exceeding that of South Korea. At this stage, it was definitely a stage where they had money to spend freely.
No wonder such a small country wants to purchase 50 X-ray machines. Are they not afraid of being overstuffed?
However, when the Russians can no longer hold on and collapse, North Korea will have no support, and our country will not fall for their tricks.
Then North Korea had no choice but to start a "forced march", and then the entire national economy began to collapse.
"Excluding these 200 X-ray machines, there is a shortage of at least 300 units. If the after-sales feedback for these X-ray machines is good, we estimate that there will be more orders."
Lin Sanqi listened to what Leader Jing said and suddenly couldn't help asking
"Leader, are you sure you're selling it, not giving it away?"
Leader Jing coughed a few times:
"It's true that many countries have asked us for free aid, but this time we really won't give it for free. If you have money, you can give money. If you don't have money, you can exchange it with food of equal value."
Lin Sanqi breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this was right.
No one will cherish things given for free, but instead it will breed ungrateful people. Our country has learned this lesson many times.
The reason why Leader Jing said so much to Lin Sanqi was obviously because he had other purposes, otherwise why would he explain to Lin Sanqi?
"Comrade Sanqi, the higher-ups have another idea. They're short of over 300 units. Can you help fill that gap? Don't worry, if you can find any Chinese medicinal herbs or minerals, we can find a solution."
Leader Jing is somewhat confident. For example, Lin Sanqi's favorite wild ginseng is produced in North Korea, and they are also willing to use ginseng for X-ray machines.
Lin Sanqi was a little bit suicidal and deliberately provoked:
"Boss, since you can receive so much foreign currency, why don't you just pay me in dollars or gold? That way I can get my job done. Or maybe we can just trade directly with each country and cut out the middlemen, wouldn't that be better?"
When Leader Jing heard this, his expression changed and he immediately became serious:
"Comrade Lin Sanqi, your thinking is very dangerous. You are disregarding the interests of the country, but you are also personally guilty..."
Lin Sanqi quickly begged for mercy:
"Leader, I was just joking. Others may not know whether I love my country or not, but you know it, don't you? So, as for the herbs, I want as many of wild ginseng, musk, bezoar, and rhino horn as I can get. As for the other common herbs, just the right amount will do.
As for minerals, in addition to mutton-fat white jade, Tianhuang stone from Fuzhou, chicken blood stone from Changhua, and sapphire from Shandong are all acceptable. We can negotiate the price.
Also, if our country has good relations with Lao Myanmar, you can also ask them to exchange jade for our X-ray machines if they don't have the money, but they must use the best jade. Then I will double the price to buy them."
Lin Sanqi patted his chest and said, "A gentleman's word is as good as gold."
Leader Jing was even happier after receiving a satisfactory response. He patted Lin Sanqi on the shoulder and laughed:
I thought that if we asked them for ginseng and jade, the prices would be as cheap as cabbage, but if we sold them to Lin Sanqi, the price could be arbitrary and the profit would be huge.
"Good boy, I didn't misjudge you, haha. So, I will immediately send people to inform the embassies of various countries that we will hold a product exhibition tomorrow. The location will be in your Kuanjie Chinese Medicine Hospital. Anyway, you have a ready-made computer room.
We will then invite foreign guests from all over the world who have purchased our X-ray machines to come. How about you also participate and help answer their questions and do some promotional work? "
As the chairman of Lingnantang Company, this little thing is naturally no problem for him:
"Okay, I'll take care of this, too."
…
…
A few days later, Kuan Street, Capital Chinese Medicine Hospital.
At this time, the Chinese medicine hospital was bustling with the sound of gongs and drums, firecrackers, waving red flags, and crowds of people.
The relevant departments also borrowed hundreds of students from the neighboring primary school. Each of them held two plastic flowers and stood on both sides of the road, jumping and dancing, and shouting in their childish voices:
"Welcome, welcome, warm welcome~~~"
Cars with flags of different countries flying in front of them drove in one after another. There was no room for them in the yard of the Chinese Medicine Hospital, so they had to park on the side of the road.
Then a group of foreigners got off the bus in twos and threes and walked towards the Chinese medicine hospital.
Lin Sanqi looked at the foreign guests in front of him, as if he was watching a black and white movie. The majority of the people were black, brown, and yellow, while white people were a very small minority.
With such a racial ratio, if Harris from the United States came here, she would definitely be very happy. This would be a definite Democratic Party stronghold.
The relevant departments assembled five X-ray machines at once and placed them in the yard, allowing foreign guests from all over the world to visit them on their own.
When these five machines with a very modern sense of technology were placed there, they were indeed very impressive, and these brothers from Asia, Africa and Latin America who had never seen the world were stunned, and they gave thumbs up and shouted "Axis".
After a while, Lin Sanqi noticed that several luxury cars drove up and a group of white people got out.
Leaders from the foreign affairs department rushed over to greet them, shaking hands and taking photos, making the atmosphere even more lively.
When you see this group of white people, whether it is the luxury of the cars they drive, the clothes they wear, their temperament, or the way they hold their chins high when they walk, you can tell at a glance that they are not someone you want to mess with.
Lin Sanqi quietly asked a foreign affairs staff member nearby:
"Dude, what country are these foreigners from?"
The staff of the Foreign Affairs Department replied softly:
"These people are incredible. The guy over there wearing a suit and having his hair permed is from the US Liaison Office in China. And those guys over there, who are as strong as bears and wearing coats, are the Russians."
Lin Sanqi was a little puzzled: "That's not right. We don't have diplomatic ties with the United States, so how could we have diplomats from their country?"
The staff was probably used to this kind of question and answered patiently:
"Indeed, there are no diplomatic ties, so it's called a liaison office in China. It's official in nature, but it's actually a disguised embassy or consulate. It's impossible for countries to have no contact at all."
"Why are the Russians here too? Isn't our relationship with them so bad? The Russian doctors at Friendship Hospital have all left."
It was not until 1961 that my country and the Russians completely fell out. In 1960, they were still maintaining superficial harmony.
Lin Sanqi had a God's perspective, but ordinary workers of that era did not understand. They never thought that the two socialist countries would really tear each other apart and even become more vicious than enemies.
"Speak softly. Actually, these Americans and Russians came uninvited. We didn't invite them. Right now, we're just having a brotherly conflict with the Russians. Don't make a fool of yourself in front of other foreigners."
Oh~~~
Lin Sanqi thought that useless knowledge had increased again.
At the same time, he really wanted to give some advice to the higher authorities: Mao Zedong was not trustworthy. Since ancient times, this country had occupied the most of our country's territory, and it was also this country that caused the Northeast to lose its access to the sea.
Originally, we have no coastal territory in Northeast China, but legally large ships can go out to sea through the Tumen River. However, the Russians and North Korea just want to disgust you, so they built a low bridge at the mouth of the Tumen River, making it impossible for your ships to pass through.
These two vicious countries are totally untrustworthy. We must seize the opportunity and kill them first!
For example, in 1991... (End of this chapter)
