"After your previous reminder, if it's a dinner for about 15 people, the things on the White Swan should be enough. I checked it when I boarded the plane, but I need to go to the dinner party. Of course, the most important thing is the lack of a chef -"
Old John, tall and straight, said that he had really forgotten the White Swan before. He didn't know whether it was black under the light or what. At this moment, it seemed that he gave his own opinion after entering the state. He listened to Zheng Jianguo nod and said, "well, I'll ask Bruce if he knows it. He happens to be in the capital again."
"Mr. Bruce should be in the rooftop restaurant."
With the voice of old John, the elevator door stopped on the third floor. After leaving the door, Zheng Jianguo went straight to old John's suite. Soon after washing, he dressed up, drank the coffee Hao Yun found, and knocked on the door: "Zheng --"
"Hi, Camille, is the jet lag reversed?"
Turning around, old John had opened the door. Zheng Jianguo looked at Camille and said hello. Then his eyes flickered and shrugged: "sorry, Joanna, I didn't tell you two."
"Now you're still separated. I'm just curious about how you separated it."
Joanna seemed to point out that Zheng Jianguo certainly wouldn't say that your boasting was a little bigger than Camille, but smiled and said, "Camille doesn't speak as rigidly as you."
"Well, is that it?"
She stood upright with her hands behind her. Joanna was thinking. There was another voice outside the door: "Zheng, I heard you coming back?"
As Camille's voice came, Zheng Jianguo said to the door, "yes, Camille, have you had breakfast? Shall we go out for a walk? "
"Oh, is it going to the golden house in the distance? I saw it in the restaurant on the top floor. I didn't expect that there would be such a big house, but the breakfast in the coffee shop was not delicious. "
Camille looked at Joanna next to him after entering the house, but he kept complaining. Zheng Jianguo smiled. The coffee shop in the hotel mainly sells coffee. As for the dishes, they are not as good as Lao Mo: "I heard old John say earlier. I was discussing with him to have a party at my house in the evening. At noon, it has been booked, Have you both learned to use chopsticks? "
Camille wrinkled his tall nose: "chopsticks are so difficult to use. I haven't learned it."
"Knives and forks are also difficult to use. I still can't cut meat without making a sound on the plate. It seems that we still have some to learn."
Then he smiled at Old John, and Zheng Jianguo looked at Camille: "has Bruce of the embassy gone?"
"No, it's still upstairs. It should be waiting for you?"
Camille shook his head and said that Zheng Jianguo looked at Old John next to him: "I'll meet him upstairs. If you're all right, go to my house to see the scene?"
"OK, but you need to arrange an English interpreter."
When old John nodded, Zheng Jianguo saw a figure at the open door. Hao Yun looked at the situation in the room and said, "Jianguo, the car has been called. What are your arrangements?"
"Take old John to my house to see the scene. In the evening, I'm going to have a western dinner to entertain Guo Huaihuai and these friends, but you have to find an interpreter. Do you know why I let you learn English as soon as possible?"
Zheng Jianguo let Hao Yun take old John away, so he turned around and took Camille and Joanna to the top floor western restaurant: "have you reversed your jet lag?"
"No, the mattress is too hard to sleep."
When Joanna shook her head, Camille nodded with approval on her face. Zheng Jianguo couldn't help saying, "you're still developing at your age - it's better to sleep in a hard board bed."
"You haven't heard of this. Besides, I'm finished."
Joanna retorted with disapproval on her face. Zheng Jianguo knew he was wrong. Fortunately, at this time, the elevator door opened, and a waitress wearing a white round hat saw the three people and quickly let them to the side. She looked at Zheng Jianguo with round, big and vigilant eyes. He was because of the lesson at the door, I just want to say that sleeping in a hard bed is good for bone development
"Hi, Zheng, do you have jet lag?"
Zheng Jianguo appeared with Camille and Joanna. Zhu Hong, who was at the entrance of the restaurant, shouted loudly. He smiled and said, "the time difference is not easy, especially when thinking about you and Bruce. I haven't seen you for a long time. Zhu Hong, are you in a hurry?"
"No, we don't have any plans today. How are you going to entertain Camille and Joanna? Bruce and I are going to touch their light and experience your landlord's hospitality today."
Zhu Hong spoke in fluent Mandarin, but Zheng Jianguo shrugged and said in English: "Oh, you let the reporters know. That can help them create a lot of topics. I'm going to take them to the place you've been to long ago. It's just that you and Bruce came and can be a tour guide for free."
"Ha, Zheng, you have changed more than I thought. It seems that you are an American boy who grew up in America. I have never met a bright Republican like you. Please allow me to congratulate you on coming late and congratulating you on winning the Lasker Award."
Seeing Zheng Jianguo speak English, Zhu Hong also changed back to English after seeing Camille and Joanna next to him. Only when she finished speaking, she took out a magazine from her bag and covered her face with a brilliant smile: "but I have nothing to give you. Please sign for me."
"Ha, of course this is no problem."
Looking at the time magazine taken out by Zhu Hong, Zheng Jianguo took out the pen from his arms and signed his picture on the cover of the magazine: "it seems that you have been ready for a long time."
"Zheng, next time you win the Nobel Prize, I'll ask you to sign this again!"
Zhu Hong, who took back the magazine, looked at Zheng Jianguo's signature on it, said that she took back the bag, turned her head and looked at the waiter with ears next to her and said, "there are reporters from Hong Kong Island interviewing Li Lijun. If you don't want to be surrounded by them, I can help you call out Bruce.
By the way, some families of the delegation of the United States Department of defense are also here today. Their gentlemen are negotiating with the Republic -- "
"This should be confidential?"
Zheng Jianguo's face changed and asked. Before he came, he didn't see any reports of the visit of the delegation of the U.S. Department of defense. Moreover, Zhu Hong said frankly that he was negotiating, so he quickly realized that such things were usually announced after the end. It's easy to say at this time: "ordinary projects?"
"It's confidential to others, but it's not a problem for you. They want to sell some transport helicopters to the Republic, and there may be other things. Bruce said you caught their attention."
Zhu Hong said with a knowing smile. What came to Zheng Jianguo's mind was the Black Hawk helicopter he wanted to buy. He didn't know that in his original memory, the United States sold a lot of things to the Republic, including dozens of Black Hawk helicopters.
"Oh, no wonder Deputy Secretary Qiancheng just mentioned the airline first. It seems that the country has agreed to this cooperation, and probably wants to test the performance of the Black Hawk helicopter through this airline?"
When the idea flashed through Zheng Jianguo's mind, Zhu Hong had already entered the restaurant and called out Bruce. It was just different from Zhu Hong who congratulated him when he saw him, but Bruce didn't mention Yang Na: "Serena hasn't heard yet?"
"No, I'm doing my best now."
Putting away his smile, Zheng Jianguo shook his head and said that Bruce seemed to know that he had carried the unopened pot. He nodded, took an envelope from his pocket and held it in his hand. He stared at Zheng Jianguo and said, "I'll tell you a good news. The Ministry of national defense has approved Sikorsky's application for the export of civilian Black Hawk, And I've made a list of things that can be sold - Augustus asked me to give it to you. "
"This is not the list, is it?"
Looking at the envelope in Bruce's hand, Zheng Jianguo looked at him with a smile. Bruce couldn't help but pull the corners of his mouth and said, "I don't know. Augustus asked me to hand it over to you. I haven't seen it yet."
"Well, it's not the list. It's something only the country can get. I'm just a doctor."
Seeing that the other party didn't say it was the list, Zheng Jianguo took it with a sigh of relief. He didn't open the unsealed envelope, and there was obviously machine-made ink inside: "the C-130 tactical transport aircraft is $10 million; Boeing 234 heavy civil helicopter $10 million; Black Hawk general helicopter $6 million - "
"Shit, you're not on the list yet?"
Just looking at the price of three lines, Zheng Jianguo raised his head, stared at Bruce with his head tilted in front of him, and saw him say, "what's the matter? This is not the list. It should be the options Augustus collected for you after he knew you wanted to buy a plane? "
"Oh -"
Looking down at the contents of the letter paper in his hand again, Zheng Jianguo scanned it at a glance and found that it was really the price of aircraft, but when the idea flashed in his mind, Bruce said, "if you like which one, you can tell me that I have the details of these aircraft."
"Ha ha, that's good. Let someone give me a copy of these materials. I'll take my time when I go back to America."
When he folded the letter paper and gave it to Bruce, Zheng Jianguo knew that the goods might be promoting the aircraft manufacturing company in the United States. Fortunately, he also knew that he didn't have much wealth. The houses in the upper east side of the United States were sold in the lower east side, so he was happy to help him.
After all, the Black Hawk always wants to buy!
So this airline can't just have helicopters, can it?
Zheng Jianguo did not know the Yangshen high-speed investment plan disclosed by him and Augustus, which made the American arms companies know earlier than the Republic that there was an investment of one billion US dollars to be realized.
In addition, at the beginning of the year, the United States has adjusted the Republic to the category of friendly non allies, which is only one step away from the category V relationship of Western European allies. Therefore, it has long liberalized the list of weapons and equipment other than weapons of mass destruction and threats to the United States.
Just before, there was no one in the United States to promote this, but in the Republic, it borrowed a lot of dollars, so that the foreign exchange reserves this year were negative. I never thought that the United States had liberalized the restrictions on these equipment.
It was not until Zheng Jianguo mistakenly wanted to buy a black eagle as a private plane that he came into the sight of both sides.
The aircraft manufacturing company directly found Augustus and directly pulled out a list of aircraft that could be sold. In China, Luo Shuqiang, who knew he was still rich, gave Kou Qingkai advice, so that Kou Qingkai was so complacent that he almost couldn't believe his erdo when he ran off the airport, so he found Ye Jianyi and exchanged what he needed, Only then did Deputy Secretary Cheng summon Zheng Jianguo.
Of course, Zheng Jianguo is still in a fog about these things. He just thinks that Augustus handed over the list through Bruce to let him take care of the old friend: "if there is no problem, I'll let Hao Yun find you."
"Good luck, sir? I'm looking forward to him coming to me -- "
I don't know whether I heard Zheng Jianguo's meaning, or out of the understanding of the homophony of Hao Yun's name, Bruce immediately said with a brilliant smile. Unexpectedly, his daughter-in-law Catlin came to the side with a smile: "Oh, you're chatting here. Zheng, I haven't seen you for a long time. You're handsome again and more elated than before."
"Hehe, Catlin, if you say I'm taller, I still believe it, but I know I don't have anything to do with handsome. On the contrary, I saw that Cagney was a little more handsome and Jessica was a little more beautiful before I came here -"
When Bruce's wife appeared, Zheng Jianguo subconsciously mentioned their son and niece, so he saw Bruce and katerin laughing together, which attracted the attention of others in the restaurant. Li Lijun, surrounded by reporters, only looked at the smiling face and said to the reporters next to him, "Mr. Zheng Jianguo is coming, Are you still there? "
"Oh, is it Dr. Zheng Jianguo who won the Lasker Award?"
"Ah, it's really him. I saw him at the gate of the Art Center -"
"Miss Li, are you breaking up with Fang Cheng because of Mr. Zheng?"
As Li Lijun pointed out Zheng Jianguo's identity, most of the reporters around her shifted their attention, but another reporter held a tape recorder and didn't want to leave. He stared at her with triangular eyes on his thin face: "I also heard that when you are unhappy, he is happy with you?"
"Fang Cheng and I are just ordinary friends, not a couple fabricated in the report to attract attention -"
When Li Lijun frowned again to deny the rumor, Ling Qingxia nearby had provoked a slender willow eyebrow: "what do you tell him to do? It's also a paparazzi who can eat shit for money."
