Chapter 121 Is there a dragon group?
Faced with the increasingly urgent attitude of the Mitsui Consortium, Chen Weidong was embarrassed to delay any longer.
However, he did not dare to go to the island country casually. If the other party suddenly broke out, he would not even have a helper. It was not his style to put himself in a dangerous situation.
In addition to his third uncle going with him, he also had to find several security personnel with strong practical capabilities to act as their bodyguards.
The security personnel of Infinite Company are only slightly better than ordinary people.
Although courage is commendable, it will be useless if something happens.
Thinking of this, Chen Weidong made a phone call and made an appointment to meet at the Civic Center Building.
The third uncle was extremely excited about the upcoming trip to the island country and asked if he would like to bring a translator because none of them spoke Japanese.
This person must be brought in, but there is currently no suitable candidate. The company has no transnational business, so it has not hired translators.
After lunch, Chen Weidong and Chen Jie showed up at the Huanan City Municipal Building on time.
The middle-aged man wearing glasses welcomed them in personally.
His surname is Zhang, and he is the number one figure in South China City. Chen Weidong and the others had met before when they returned to the mainland.
"Xiao Chen, did you encounter any problems with the project?" Secretary Zhang asked very enthusiastically as soon as the two sat down in the office.
He also knew that Chen Weidong was very busy recently and would never take the initiative to contact him if there was nothing particularly important.
As for the Infinite Company Science and Technology Park project, the city has given it the green light, and no one dares to interfere with it. It seems that there must be other matters.
Chen Weidong quickly solved his doubts.
"Secretary Zhang, in a few days we are going to an island country to attend a financial seminar. We need a few skilled people to act as bodyguards. We know that you are well-informed and would like to ask if you have anyone to recommend?"
"Haha, what do I think is a big deal? This should be easier to handle. I can help you contact him." The middle-aged man smiled heartily, but he didn't expect that Chen Weidong came to him just for this matter.
"Secretary Zhang, would you like to ask the higher-ups if there are any members of the Dragon Group? Arrange a few for me and I can pay them a high salary."
Seeing how easily he agreed, Chen Weidong became a little suspicious whether the middle-aged man would randomly find a few average people to fool him.
This is not only related to your own personal safety, but when you go to the island country, you must represent China. If you lose face, you will be embarrassed.
"You kid, who are the members of the Dragon Recovery Group? Where did you hear this? How come I didn't know there was such a department?" The middle-aged man was amused, knowing that Chen Weidong suspected that he didn't pay enough attention to him.
He added: "I dare not say if one beats ten, seven or eight will be no problem at all."
Chen Weidong reluctantly nodded and said: "In addition, by the way, help us find an expert in optoelectronics and a mechanical researcher. It is best to have a deep understanding of high-end equipment and precision instruments..."
"Hiss~"
"Xiao Chen, what are you doing?"
The middle-aged man took a breath. The more he heard, the more something was wrong. It was understandable that he wanted bodyguards, but why did he need so many scientific research experts?
Chen Weidong sighed: "Secretary Zhang, our park will be completed soon, but it lacks equipment, especially high-tech equipment."
At this point, he paused deliberately.
The middle-aged man said nothing and continued to wait for Chen Weidong to continue.
"We won't talk about what you can buy in China. The focus is on what you can't buy. This is the main purpose of our trip to the island country this time."
After Chen Weidong said this, the middle-aged man's face became a little solemn. He stood up, walked a few steps in the office, and pulled the door lock on the way.
He turned around and whispered: "Are you sure?"
In fact, he is not optimistic about Chen Weidong's trip to the island country.
If China could import precision instruments from foreign countries, there would be no such thing as a technological blockade.
High technology is currently what South China City needs most. Economic transformation is not easy. Without technology, it is empty talk.
The West has been blocking China for a long time. Only after they have upgraded their own industries and developed new technologies will they release the old technologies and impact the market.
National defense and military industry, computers, biological sciences, and high-end manufacturing are all areas that are not stuck. They all relied on their own exploration to achieve today's achievements.
He knew that Chen Weidong was rich, but he felt that even if Chen Weidong had free money, the island country would not sell them advanced instruments and equipment.
At most, they would just come up with a few things that they had eliminated and looked down on, just to fool him and steal money from him.
Chen Weidong didn't want to explain too much. He would definitely not go through formal channels to "buy" these instruments, but there were some secrets that he couldn't tell yet.
The technological blockade of China by multinational companies existed in the 1950s.
At that time, the so-called Paris Governing Council adopted a policy of complete technological blockade against China. Any advanced technology was strictly prohibited from being exported to China.
But later, as China researched and developed its own technologies, including atomic bombs, satellites, missiles, etc., the foreign technological blockade began to collapse.
In 1999, China had not yet joined the WTO, otherwise the blockade imposed on China by developed countries would have been much relaxed, and some less special instruments could be imported in small quantities through normal channels.
How to get these things, Chen Weidong doesn't have a complete idea now, so he can only act according to circumstances.
This is why he jokingly asked if there were any members of the Dragon Group. In addition to providing necessary bodyguards, they would also create opportunities for him when necessary!
When the middle-aged man saw that he didn't answer, he knew that his determination must be very strong, so he didn't say anything more.
Although there are now more companies in Huanan City, there is still no one that can truly be called a high-tech company.
Through the conversation with Chen Weidong, he vaguely realized that this young man might have other means.
If Infinite Company can really get a batch of high-end equipment, it will definitely be a shot in the arm for South China City. Even if there is only a slight chance, it must not be let go.
He walked straight to a landline and dialed a number.
Soon, an old but powerful voice came out from the other end of the phone.
The middle-aged man explained some requirements to him, including the experts mentioned by Chen Weidong, as well as various equipment that was lacking in the country, and detailed information, and asked the other party to sort it out as quickly as possible.
Chen Weidong also specifically added, don’t consider the price issue, just report what we don’t have or lack.
The middle-aged man immediately conveyed his words to the other party.
In the international market, the prices of those high-precision instruments can definitely be described as money-grabbing.
If an average person buys it honestly, even if the other party doesn't lie to them and sells them a real thing, they still can't afford it!
Chapter completed!
