There were seven or eight people holding up signs to protest, and they were all young women.
Compared to their protests, Ye Qing wanted to know how they got in.
This was a special passage. The team that came to welcome the business tycoons had to apply in advance and pass the security check before they were allowed to enter.
Ye Qing did not believe that the security guards were illiterate and could not recognize the signs held by the girls.
"It's just some tricks used by the business world." After the glass magnate Cai Songhua returned to the team, he whispered in Ye Qing's ear. "First, they will block your product, then negotiate with you. They will ask for benefits at the cost of releasing the product license."
"I think so too. Otherwise, these people would not be able to get in." Ye Qing was a little disgusted by this kind of trick. But then again, the feeling of being protested was quite good.
It felt like he was going back in time.
Twenty years ago, Hua Xia was not like this. If you want to buy some foreign high-end electronic products, you need to have a lot of connections. It was not until Hua Xia joined the World Trade Organization that the situation was alleviated.
"Xiao Ye, what do you plan to do next?" Cai Songhua stretched his neck. He was old and had been on the plane for more than ten hours. He felt uncomfortable all over. "There are no meetings on the first day. After lunch, I will go to the branch office in the afternoon to inspect. Then I will be arranged to visit the other glass factories."
"You are the main character of this summit. In order to invite you, the President has specially advertised for you. He will definitely arrange for you to visit some of the technology factories that are not open to the public."
"Raytheon Corporation." Ye Qing felt strange. "It seems to be an arms company."
"Yes, these foreigners really don't understand. I thought I could arrange for you to visit a machine tool company."
The business tycoons all had tours. The tycoons in different industries had tours of similar factories and companies. Ye Qing wanted to visit Boeing or Locke Martin. These two were the top industrial technology companies in the world.
Of course, this was just a thought in his mind. These two companies were the lifeline of the United States. Of course, Raytheon Corporation's technology was also very powerful.
The luncheon was held at the Capitol building. Several congressmen from the United States and the chief executive of the business department received them.
There was a huge mural dome, a long table that stretched as far as the eye could see, spotlessly white candles, and pure silver cutlery. It was a very pure Western banquet style, but the dishes were a combination of Chinese and Western. There were golden Aquitaine beef ribs provided by a French cattle family with a long history, and tender lobsters that were very popular at Hua Xia banquets.
Ye Qing praised the chef in his heart. When the dishes were served and the chef came over to express his gratitude, he saw that half of the guests were Hua Xia. It seemed like they were of high status …
Ye Qing could only praise Hua Xia's food.
The business leaders and political leaders of nine countries from two continents were gathered in one place. Ye Qing also saw the leader of An Qi Heavy Industries, a thin old man with a face full of age spots and dyed black hair.
Business circles from different countries formed different small groups. However, through Ye Qing's observation, Hua Xia's business circle was faintly excluded from the Western countries.
"Because we are against the rules of the Western countries." Glass King Cai Songhua said proudly, "You see that they are chatting happily together. Maybe they are talking about how the business was robbed by us, and then they are discussing how to deal with us."
"Songhua, I heard that you plan to set up an automobile glass production base with 20,000 jobs in the United States." Another big boss asked, "What preferential policies did the United States give you to make you have the courage to move one-third of the productivity here?"
"The big part is the tax and electricity preferences. In fact, even if the preferences are given to the end, it is more cost-effective domestically." Cai Songhua sighed, "But half of my car glass is sold to Europe and the United States. If I don't come here to set up a big factory, they will levy additional tariffs. "
"Xiao Ye, you have to be mentally prepared. They are likely to use the release of the ionization purifier as a bargaining chip to negotiate with you. "
Ye Qing nodded. After the analysis of several big bosses, Ye Qing had some idea of the purpose of their invitation.
…
After a sumptuous lunch, two government vehicles that often appeared in American movies, a black Chevrolet full-size Saab off-road vehicle, and a Cadillac limousine were parked in front of the Capitol building.
Two government officials who accompanied Ye Qing and his party invited them into the car, a man and a woman. The man's name was Kermit, and the woman's name was Hannah. They were both full-time receptionists in the business department.
"Mr. Ye, the factory headquarters of Raytheon Corporation that you are about to visit is located in Waltham, Massachusetts. We will go to the airport to take a small charter flight and fly directly to Raytheon Corporation's airport." The young and beautiful Hannah showed her dimples and said in fluent Chinese, "Before leaving, I want to thank you on behalf of Mr. President for taking time out of your busy schedule to attend this summit."
"Our president especially likes your company's mechanical massage chair." Kermit took a bottle of whiskey from the wine rack and poured it while saying, "Not only did Mr. President reject the custom-made presidential chair, but he also placed a mechanical engineered chair in his study and gym."
"In the future, when Mr. Ye sees Mr. President's Oval Office on the news, he will definitely see that mechanical engineering chair."
"Thank you very much, Mr. President, for your support of our company's products. I am very honored." Ye Qing pretended to be polite and said, "If Mr. President wants, we can build a chair with more functions according to his ideas."
"Really?" Kermit was very surprised. "Mr. President will be very happy to hear the news. In fact, he wants to meet you. Mr. President hopes to talk to you alone after the summit."
"…"
Ye Qing glanced at Yun Shi next to him, and the latter's eyes were full of little stars.
Ye Qing felt that this joke was a bit too big. It was not that Ye Qing looked down on him. In fact, Ye Qing felt that he was qualified to participate in this summit because Monster Heavy Industries had achieved such brilliant achievements in just one year.
The glory in the future would only be more dazzling, but because Monster Heavy Industries started too soon, it only built a reputation in China. Looking at the world, the western society did not have a deep understanding of it.
Previously, Ye Qing and several big bosses had analyzed that the president had invited him to attend the summit. It was likely that he liked the mechanical engineering chair. He had just invited Ye Qing to come over and talk about cooperation with the Ministry of Commerce below. He had used the chips of opening the ionization purifier market to pull the manufacturing industry on the old US side.
Now it seemed that it was not so simple.
He could not figure it out for the time being. After the summit was over, all the mysteries would be solved by the president himself.
Along the way, Kermit and Hanna patiently introduced the local customs and customs here to Ye Qing, and the history of Raytheon Corporation's development that they were about to visit.
The small jet flew directly to the headquarters of Raytheon Corporation in Massachusetts. After an hour of flight, the long coastline and the rolling hills appeared in front of Ye Qing.
The state of Massachusetts was also called Massachusetts. The famous Massachusetts Institute of Technology was located there.
