Chapter 440 Meeting the Minister
Fu Anhua pushed his son and pushed him to the front, then smiled at He Yuan and said, "My child has been talking about Xiaoyu these past two days."
Fu Shuyan's face immediately turned red and he tugged at his father's sleeve.
Fu Anhua pointed at his son and said, "Look, he's still shy. No wonder Xiaoyu calls him Honghong."
As a father.
I love seeing kids laugh.
Especially my own is a red apple.
Fu Shuyan stammered, not knowing how to speak at all.
He Yuanxian shook hands with Fu Anhua and said, "Thank you for coming to pick us up so late."
The two had communicated after the children finished their call, otherwise He Yuan would not have been so bold as to entrust the two children to Fu Anhua.
Fu Anhua waved his hand: "It's a small matter. It's cold here. I'll help you get your luggage into the car first."
He first helped He Yuan load the luggage into the trunk.
Then the two of them sat in the front row, Chen Qing held Xiaoyu, and sat in the back row with He Yuxiang and Fu Shuyan.
He Yuxiang and Fu Shuyan are both not talkative.
He Yuxiang looks like a cocky guy.
Fu Shuyan is shy little apple.
Xiaoyu leaned on her aunt's shoulder. She originally wanted to chat with Fu Shuyan, but she had never slept so late before. She felt the reassuring atmosphere and fell asleep quickly.
He Yuxiang glanced at Fu Shuyan, whose ears were red all the time, and thinking that he would go to his house for the next two days, he asked kindly, "When will your leg get better?"
“It was fine half a year ago.”
Fu Anhua responded obediently.
Chen Qing looked at both of them with mixed emotions.
The two kids knew nothing but had a great time chatting away.
He Yuxiang asked Fu Shuyan what the capital was like.
When talking about familiar topics, Fu Shuyan was able to talk freely, introducing He Yuxiang to the fun and delicious things in the capital, and said, "Come to my house tomorrow, and I will take you and Xiaoyu to play."
He Yuxiang: "Thank you."
He was ready to pay the bill.
The station was not far from the guesthouse, and Fu Anhua drove for half an hour to get there. When he dropped them off, Fu Anhua said directly, "You two have things to do tomorrow, so I'll send someone to pick up the two children."
He Yuan and Chen Qing thanked him politely.
Fu Shuyan leaned on the car window and said goodbye to them reluctantly.
After the family of four arrived at the guesthouse, Chen Qing woke Xiaoyu up and helped the sleepy Xiaoyu take a bath.
After taking a shower, He Yuan had already made the three beds in the room clean. Chen Qing slept with Xiaoyu in his arms, while He Yuan and He Yuxiang slept separately.
After all the trouble, it was already three o'clock.
Comrade Chen Qing, the king of staying in bed, woke up at six o'clock!
At the critical moment, Chen Qing still had a clear idea in his mind.
It was a rare scene: she woke up while everyone in the family was still asleep.
But at this moment, Chen Qing did not feel any excitement in his heart, he was full of sleepiness.
She had something to do today, so she couldn't get up after sleeping for three hours. If she could continue sleeping, she would never get up.
After quietly going out to wash up, Chen Qing came to He Yuan's bed again, squatted beside him and whispered, "He Yuan, I'm going out first."
He Yuan opened his eyes, rubbed her hair, and said in a hoarse voice: "Thank you for your hard work."
Chen Qing also rubbed his hair: "Thank you for your hard work."
She took the documents, went out to have breakfast, then took a bus and then a tram to Xicheng District, and finally walked to the Ministry of Light Industry in Xicheng District. This journey took an hour.
Chen Qing hurried to the Ministry of Light Industry, showed his identity to the security officer, and said to him: "I have already made an appointment with the Minister of our Ministry of Light Industry. Could you please take me to see him?"
As he spoke, Chen Qing handed him a red envelope. The opening of the envelope was not sealed tightly, and with a slight squeeze, one could see that there were ten yuan inside.
When the security officer saw this, he was happy: "Wait, I'll go call someone."
Money makes the world go round. He took ten dollars and gave a pack of good cigarettes to the minister's secretary, asking him to notify the minister. When the secretary was told that there was indeed an appointment, he immediately took Chen Qing to meet the minister.
On the way to see the minister, I said to Chen Qing: "Our minister is a very easy-going person and an honest man, but honest people are generally willing to listen. If an honest person doesn't listen, he won't listen at all. If you are going to do something later, have a good chat with the minister."
"Yes, thank you."
Chen Qing came to the minister's office.
As the national minister of light industry, he controls all clothing and textile industries. His responsibilities cover raw material supply, production planning, technological upgrading, etc. He is the core decision-maker in the textile industry.
He is also the most important person for her to achieve her goal, no doubt about it!
The two were not strangers, as they had collaborated on the acetate cloth issue.
Lian Zhenghao was also very satisfied with the manuscript that Chen Qing gave him last time, so when Chen Qing asked him to make an appointment, Lian Zhenghao readily agreed despite being so busy: "Comrade Chen, long time no see."
"Minister Lian, long time no see."
The two men smiled and shook hands.
Lian Zhenghao asked his secretary to pour tea, and waved for Chen Qing to sit down. He smiled and said, "I heard that you have to go to receive the award tomorrow. As a talent in our textile department, I am very optimistic about you."
"Thank you, Minister Lian. It is my honor to be qualified to contribute to our country's textile industry." Chen Qing thanked the secretary for pouring the tea, held it in his palm, and blew gently.
The two exchanged pleasantries before Lian Zhenghao asked, "Comrade Chen came to see me this time. What surprise did he prepare?"
"It's not a surprise, just a little idea." Chen Qing took out a thick stack of documents.
Lian Zhenghao was surprised: "So many?"
"It is mainly divided into three parts: overall plan, design draft and advertising creativity."
Chen Qing made the distinction and first handed the design draft to Lian Zhenghao.
Lian Zhenghao took it. He had great confidence in Chen Qing's creative level. He looked through her more than 20 types of clothes. The clothes were mainly in deep earth tones, such as brown, camel, and dark green.
Lian Zhenghao looked at Chen Qing's manuscript and felt that even the cutting would take some effort, not to mention the rare fabrics and certain decorations that she marked out.
The clothes are gorgeous!
There is no doubt about this.
The overall look presents a sense of low-key, noble elegance.
but!
"We in China cannot make these clothes. The fabrics, tailoring, accessories, none of them can be made! If we make them, it will be easy for people to criticize us. The clothes you designed before were worn by working people, but the clothes you design now are not worn by working people and are easy to be criticized."
"If acetate cloth can do it, why can't these of mine?"
"Acetate cloth is a political demand. Sakura Country makes a lot of money from this cloth. After we get the cloth, we naturally want to make money. The country is short of foreign exchange."
Foreign exchange is for economic survival, industrial construction, financial stability, and diplomatic strategy, but it is currently in short supply. As the Minister of Light Industry, he can only find ways to earn foreign exchange to ease financial constraints.
Sakura Country currently has cooperation with China, and Lian Zhenghao wants to exchange manpower for technology, but he does not plan to sell or exhibit it in China.
But the clothes designed by Chen Qing are completely in line with the capital market.
Maybe you can make a lot of money.
But it’s even harder to pass the review!
