Chapter 235: Cooperation Plan (2 more chapters to be added tomorrow)
Facing Luo Wei's straightforwardness, Chen Jintao couldn't help but smile, "Sir, it seems that the way to take the designer away directly is not feasible, but we can discuss other cooperation plans."
"Beautiful lady, I really admire you. I used to think that Chinese women only knew how to rely on men and had no thoughts of their own, but after meeting you, I realized that Chinese girls can also be very independent."
Luo Wei was indeed a quick-talker, and he had never thought about whether his words would offend anyone. "Excuse me, ma'am, what is your name? We have talked for so long, but I still don't know your name. Let me formally introduce myself. My name is Luo Wei, and I am a businessman from the United States."
Chen Jintao acted neither humble nor arrogant, even when she heard that the other party was from the United States, "Hello Mr. Luo Wei, my name is Chen Jintao."
"Ms. Shen, can we wait until the food is served and then talk while we eat?" Luo Wei suggested.
"Of course!" Shen Jintao had no objection.
In Shen Jintao's eyes, Lowe has turned into a glittering gold coin. It seems that he is very satisfied with his design. If he can really cooperate with Lowe, he can open up the international market in advance.
The food was served quite quickly, mainly because there were enough staff, so we didn't have to wait too long, and one delicious dish after another was delivered to the table.
"Mr. Lowe, try some of our Chinese cuisine. I think you will like it." Chen Jintao began to introduce each dish to Lowe.
The food is not as exquisitely presented as in Lowe Country. After all, word of mouth is still the main focus now. Every dish is large in portion and economical and affordable.
Although these meals are considered to be relatively expensive among all the restaurants currently available, no one can say that the food portions in this restaurant are not large enough.
Lowe really didn't take it seriously at first, but the fragrance seemed to have legs and rushed into his nose.
"Just by smelling this, I know it must be delicious. I must try it."
In fact, since he came to China, he has not had a meal that satisfies him. This is because there is some gap in taste between him and the Chinese. In addition, the food in China's state-owned restaurants is not that delicious. If he is lucky, he can meet a chef with very good skills, and the food he makes can barely be called delicious. However, the employees of state-owned restaurants are not necessarily chefs. Many of them follow in their father's footsteps or take over their relatives' jobs.
Lowe thinks that this country is pretty nice everywhere and the scenery is beautiful, but the food is a bit too unrefined.
Of course, this is also because he has never had the opportunity to experience real food, such as the dishes served at China’s state banquets. It is the real top luxury product, which ordinary people cannot afford at all. Even if he is a businessman from the United States, he has no chance to see it.
Luo Wei has been in China for quite some time and has become proficient in using chopsticks. He picked up a pair of chopsticks and started with a dish of braised beef.
The moment the beef entered his mouth, his eyes lit up instantly. The taste was simply amazing.
This is better than anything he has ever eaten in China. How can he describe this dish? It's soft but chewy when you put it in your mouth.
The seasoning is just right and there is nothing to fault with it.
Luo Wei clasped his hands together and said, "Oh my god, I am so touched. This is the first time I have eaten such delicious food in China!"
Chen Jintao couldn't help but defend her country. "Mr. Luo Wei, these are actually nothing. In our country, there are some very famous dishes that are basically only served at state banquets. The taste of those dishes is unique. Even if ordinary restaurants like us want to replicate them, we can't."
Mr. Lowe couldn't help but nodded after hearing this. "I was too narrow-minded before. China really has a lot for us to learn from."
Chen Jintao didn't expect Mr. Lowe to be so humble. You know, people in the United States have always looked down on the Chinese.
They have a natural sense of superiority when facing the yellow race. Although sometimes it is difficult to understand where this sense of superiority comes from, it has always been like this. Especially after the technological advancement in the United States, they really look down on China.
Chen Jintao has heard a lot from the older generation. During the period of reform and opening up, some businessmen from other countries were condescending when facing their own businessmen. They felt that they were already giving great face by granting some business to Chinese businessmen, so naturally they would not treat them well.
It was only after the country's international status was improved that the Chinese people gradually gained a say in the international arena.
“Ms. Shen, please come eat with us. Let’s talk about cooperation while we eat. I hope we can all get a good result.”
Shen Jintao nodded. She was also looking forward to working with Luo Wei.
Of course, Shen Jintao is eager to open up the international market as soon as possible, but selecting partners is also a very important link.
If the other party is an unreasonable person, Chen Jintao feels that it doesn't matter if she waits a little longer.
Lowe was indeed attracted by the delicacies on the table. He ate much faster. You know, they usually eat with knives and forks, and try to be as elegant as possible when eating.
But today I really didn't care about my image.
Shen Jintao was also amused by his reaction, and even had a greatly increased appetite during the meal.
After tasting every dish, Lowe finally started to talk about cooperation.
"I'm sorry, beautiful goddess, I made a fool of myself. Now let's talk about the direction of cooperation. Since you are a designer of a clothing factory, you definitely can't come back to China with me, so can you sell me some clothing design drawings? This way, I can also get my factory to produce as soon as possible."
Shen Jintao raised her teacup and took a sip, then smiled faintly and said, “Mr. Luo Wei, this is not the way of cooperation I want.”
Lowe frowned, "So do you want to buy clothes directly from our country? That would increase the cost."
Chen Jintao shook her head. "As you said, it is indeed very costly for us to export clothing directly. After all, we need to pay taxes at the customs. I have not considered exporting directly abroad because my clothing factory does not support me to accept such a large order. After all, I still need to open up my sales channels in China. I believe that my clothing will be popular, so I have not considered selling clothing abroad for the time being."
