Chapter 97 – Hong Kong Businessman (Part 2) (1/2)

“Hang the banner higher. Why is that colored flag crooked? There is a leaf at that corner. Hurry and go sweep it! The big boss from Hong Kong is arriving soon. He is a foreign guest, and every one must welcome him properly. This does not only concern our company’s image and also the City government and even our Provincial Government. You all must take note of this! Factory…… no, it should be General Manager, what do you think of this arrangement?”

Li Mingde looked around and nodded: “It’s fine. What about the arrangements at the canteen?”

“It’s settled. We have prepared a lot of wild games, and it will be something that this big boss from Hong Kong have never eaten!”

“Good. If we succeed, you will get some credit!”

Honk, honk ~~~

A black sedan car appeared at the entrance of the factory. The appearance of this car was majestic. There was a small flying G.o.ddess standing upright at the front of the vehicle. Many felt that this car was luxurious but had not seen the logo before. It was not Mercedes Benz or BMW.

The sedan car stopped, and the driver alighted to open the rear pa.s.senger door.

A man wearing a black coat, bowler hat, a white scarf and polished leather shoes alighted from the car.

“Which one is Li Mingde, Manager Li?”

Li Mingde hurriedly steps forward and used both his hands to shook Fu Guangzheng’s hand: “I am Li Mingde from Bing City Machinery Corporation Ltd. We are here to welcome Mr. Fu to invest in our factory.”

“It's visiting. I have not decided to invest yet.” Fu Guangzheng said. His Cantonese Mandarin was making Li Mingde uncomfortable, but Li Mingde had no choice.

That car was a second-hand Rolls Royce which Feng Yu had kept for himself. Feng Yu had lent Fu Guangzheng his Rolls Royce, but the driver was Fu Guangzheng’s man. The driver was from the South but knew Mandarin. He also doubles as Fu Guangzheng’s translator.

Feng Yu had told Fu Guangzheng that for this investment, he needs to position himself highly. He must not show any eagerness. The more he showed that he was not anxious about investing in the company, the better the conditions he would get.

As for his dressing, it was still okay if he was in the South. But this was the Northeast, and it was November. The temperature was lower than -10 degrees Celsius. The moment he stepped out of the car, he shuddered. He should have worn a few more pieces of clothing inside. He secretly swore that he will not come to Bing City in the winter. It’s too cold!

“It’s the same. After your visit, you will still be investing in our company. Mr. Fu, this way. I will bring you around our factory. We have the most advanced machinery from the Soviet Union, the most advanced technologies, and experts to guide us. We are the best in the country.” Li Mingde enthusiastically said.

Fu Guangzheng strolled with his head held high. He looks like he was just casually looking around but in fact, he was observing the factory carefully.

This was different from what he imagined. The factory was huge and lean. But when he saw the banners and colored flags, he knew that the place was cleaned up to welcome him.

Fu Guangzheng was not interested in these welcoming ceremonies. He will invest in this factory if what Feng Yu said about the machines and technologies from the Soviet Union were real.

“Mr. Fu, look. This production line was just set up and calibrated. Everything in this workshop is new. This is the digital CNC machine. It can produce engine parts and sophisticated bearings. Those workers are working on it. There is little noise, efficient and definitely the best in China!”

Fu Guangzheng nodded. It was not as noisy as he expected and the workshops were s.p.a.cious. The factory covers a large area. There were no factories this scale in Hong Kong. But Hong Kong was not an industrial city in the first place.

Fu Guangzheng saw a foreigner instructing some workers. This is the expert in mechanical engineering Feng Yu told him about?
