Director Wang had just finished a phone call with his superior, reporting on the sale of agricultural machinery to the United States and sending a fax.
This is a great thing to be proud of; whoever reports to the leader will definitely be praised.
Feeling good about getting such a lucky break, one feels a sense of satisfaction, and a smug look naturally appears on their face.
Upon seeing Director Cao return, Section Chief Wang demanded, "Where have you been?"
Factory Director Cao chuckled and said, "Just taking another stroll to learn from the advanced experiences of foreigners."
He would never admit that he had been watching Wu Changfeng for an hour.
He remained unharmed; no police came to arrest him, and no one accused Wu Changfeng of fraud.
That's very strange.
Do people from island nations have such a weak sense of law?
No way!
Just now, he was leading a group of people to confront Wu Changfeng.
Could something have happened while I was making the call?
Damn it, did Wu Changfeng bribe everyone in the room to settle things?
Thinking of this, Director Cao returned, wanting to sound out Director Wang's opinion.
How could you forget me about something that could make Wu Changfeng bleed?
That's not fair!
Then, Director Cao cautiously probed, "Director Wang, after the exhibition ends, what are some things you'd like to buy to take home?"
Director Wang stroked his chin and thought for a moment: "I can't buy much. My salary isn't even enough to cover my expenses. My child has always wanted a Sony Walkman."
"We scraped together what we could, exchanged it for some Japanese yen, and barely managed to buy a Walkman. The rest we could only afford to buy some local specialties."
Factory Director Cao frowned.
That shouldn't be happening!
If Director Wang accepted the hush money, he must be quite well-off.
Why does it look like they don't have any money?
Director Wang asked with a smile, "Old Cao, what do you want to buy?"
Factory Director Cao was stunned for a while before answering, "Ah... I don't really have anything to buy. I'll see when the time comes. Hmm? What's up with our booth???"
It was only then that Director Cao realized that the group's booths were full of lawnmowers!
Holy crap!
Director Wang said, "Director Cao won't have any objections to the Qimingxing branch venue, will he? After all, you can't sell your products either, so let's give it to the more capable ones."
Factory Director Cao felt a chill run from the soles of his feet to the back of his head.
If that's the case...
There's nothing wrong with Wu Changfeng himself!
Was all of this just my own imagination?
Factory Director Cao shuddered; things had gone wrong!
Director Wang noticed that Factory Director Cao's face was pale and asked, "What's wrong? You look terrible. Why don't you go back and rest?"
Factory Director Cao shook his head: "It's nothing, just an old problem. Director Wang, may I ask, is Wu Changfeng really alright?"
"It was a misunderstanding on our part, there's absolutely no problem," Director Wang continued. "Moreover, his products are indeed very competitive, and this is a breakthrough for our Agricultural Machinery Department!"
"Let me tell you," Director Wang said, pointing to the lawnmower, "this thing sells so well that it's practically effortless for any lawnmower buyer to come in; they're all sold!"
"He's even more coveted than gold! This Wu Changfeng is a genius!"
"Furthermore, my sales figures are all attributed to the Ministry of Agriculture, which is a great achievement. As you know, the Ministry of Agriculture is really worried about fulfilling national tasks."
"Our own people aren't even getting enough to eat, so how can we export grain?"
"Otherwise, we wouldn't have organized you to come to the island nation exhibition. It's so that you can learn from our experience and sell agricultural machinery abroad."
The more Director Cao listened, the more his body trembled.
Wu Changfeng is fine!
It also generated foreign exchange for the Ministry of Agriculture!
Although the money didn't come from the Ministry of Agriculture, nominally the Ministry of Agriculture was also trying its best to complete the task!
At least when holding a general meeting, we can greet other departments.
As long as this money is in the Ministry of Agriculture's account until the end of the year, the task will be considered complete.
As for next year's tasks, they have nothing to do with this year's.
Director Wang smiled and continued, "Director Cao, would you be interested in imitating us at the next agricultural machinery exhibition?"
imitate?
Factory Director Cao understood.
Director Wang's thinking was: after all, Wu Changfeng wasn't from the Ministry of Agriculture; he was just developing a product and wanted to make money.
If my subordinates can also use this lawnmower, then there is still hope of making money in US dollars next year.
Factory Director Cao wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Uh, I have that idea, I have that idea."
Director Wang said, "Don't be nervous or stressed. I've looked at it, and it's not difficult."
Factory Director Cao complained: "I'm sweating not because of the hot weather, but because of the pressure."
I was the one who spread rumors!
This is outrageous!
Hopefully, the impact domestically won't be too great, and I can quietly slip away unnoticed.
...
The day's exhibition has come to an end.
Wu Changfeng secured five orders totaling over 27 million US dollars!
This is a huge gain!
The lawnmower is quite effective.
Of course, this thing has a very long lifespan, and who knows when we'll receive any more orders.
Unlike electric toothbrushes, the brush head needs to be replaced almost every three months.
It is a source of continuous income.
Wu Changfeng did a quick calculation of his US dollar savings, which came to about 100 million.
Not enough!
That's far from enough!
This amount of money is far from enough to cover the cost of purchasing a lithography machine.
If we lose the chance to compete for lithography machines at this point in time, falling behind by one step will lead to falling behind by every step!
After a busy day.
