Chapter 891 It's Okay, He Saw Us

Minister Inoue was confused for a moment when he saw Ma Zhaoxian walking over.

But after all, he is an old fox who has been practicing for many years. He was just stunned for half a second, and his face was filled with smiles, and he bowed deeply to Ma Zhaoxian.

"Hello Mr. Ma, I really didn't expect to meet you here. You are here to have Chinese food."

"No, we are not familiar with Tokyo. We have been eating with your people in the past few days. In the past two days, we have no choice but to eat in restaurants in our hometown.

But shouldn’t your guests with the lighthouse be eating steak? Why are you here for Chinese food? "

Minister Inoue's smile became stiff, and his 60-degree bow became even lower: "I'm really sorry. I neglected everyone. It's really rude."

No matter how much Inoue looks down on mainlanders, Ma Zhaoxian is also the person who introduced the project finalized above. You, a small minister, dare to play double-standard treatment. How will it end if you are stabbed by a competitor?

After Liu Muhan translated Minister Inoue's words, Ma Zhaoxian said magnanimously: "Hey, is this rude or not? Isn't it normal that you are too busy to serve two guests by yourself?"

"Haha, I am indeed a little busy. Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Ma. Please wait a moment, wait a moment."

Minister Inoue bowed to Ma Zhaoxian continuously, then returned to the lighthouse people and muttered for a while, and finally ran back.

"Mr. Ma, if you don't mind, you can have dinner with the guests of the lighthouse today. We are all traveling together. I think there will be some common topics to discuss."

"Hey, that's great. I have to thank Director Inoue for this. Thank you, thank you."

Ma Zhaoxian graciously forgave Minister Inoue for his rudeness and gave him a five-star praise.

Then everyone entered the restaurant together, chose a large room, introduced each other, and tried to chat with each other.

"This is Mr. Charles from Lighthouse Mitsubishi Plant, and this is Mr. Ma from Zhonghua Jingcheng Light Vehicle Company."

"Hello, hello~"

"Nice to meet you~"

"What types of cars does your company produce? We produce light trucks and advanced diesel engines."

At this time, the mainlanders felt very strange when they saw the lighthouse people, and the lighthouse people were also very interested in seeing the mainlanders. So despite the language barrier, with the help of the translator, they had a magical "friendly" conversation.

Just because Liu Muhan's colleague Xiao Hu only knew Japanese, Li Ye was helplessly pulled up and helped translate with Liu Muhan.

But after translating for a while, he became the protagonist of the awkward conversation.

Because among all the mainlanders at the scene, only Li Ye understood the development level of the world's mainstream automobile manufacturers.

You can't let Ma Zhao talk to Charles about the performance characteristics of the 130 first, right?

"Mr. Li, is your flower grower now able to produce world-class cars?"

"Of course, West German Volkswagen has entered the mainland for three years, and its new B-class sedan has begun mass production. Audi has also begun in-depth cooperation with us and will start building a factory next year at the latest."

"By the way, the Cherokee is also our beacon project, right? Mass production has already begun."

“Has VW already entered the flower garden?”

After hearing what Li Ye said, Charles suddenly became serious.

Nowadays, the exchange of information between the East and the West is very inconvenient. He didn't even know that the West Germans had entered the mainland.

Of course, Charles understands how big the market for flower growers is. As long as this kind of news is polished and reported to the superiors, it will be a very good achievement.

"Ludwig, Ludwig?"

Charles turned to a companion and shouted, and then asked in a low voice: "Do you know the investment situation of the public in the mainland of the flower garden?"

Ludwig nodded slowly: "Yes, we started working together when I left my job three years ago. I once wrote a report to the company's senior management, but they didn't respond at all."

"Oh~, you are a technician, you shouldn't write this kind of report. Those gentlemen don't even read your report."

Charles shook his head regretfully. He didn't know whether he was regretful because Ludwig snatched his report, or because the company didn't pay attention to the florist market.

But Li Ye was interested in Ludwig.

Because this guy was obviously "unsociable", he was vaguely isolated by several other colleagues after entering the hotel. If Charles hadn't called his name, no one would have noticed him.

So during the dinner later, Li Ye chatted with Ludwig for a while and found out that he was a West German immigrant. He had been working in the company for three years after arriving in the United States and had been engaged in technical work in the company.

However, the other party's tone was very tight. Li Ye wanted to ask some sensitive questions, but the other party pretended to be dumbfounded and said that he did not understand Li Ye's English.

[Hey, you have a strong Bavarian accent, but you still can’t understand my London accent? Chatting with you Germans is really boring. 】

After the food was served, the lighthouse people at the scene basically stopped talking and slurped at the Chinese food and ate happily.

However, Xiao Jinggang and others criticized it: "What is this? Is it sour or sweet? Are you trying to get into trouble?"

"That's right, under the banner of our Chinese food, what we cook is completely different. Isn't this a failure of our Chinese food brand?"

"."

"Stop talking about it. When people treat you to dinner, don't be picky. Don't you think everyone else is enjoying the meal?"

"."

In fact, Xiao Jingang and others don’t understand that the Japanese are very good at understanding the psychology of their customers. Just look at the diners in this restaurant, which are mostly white Westerners. You will know why they “improved” this kind of Chinese food.

The food culture between the East and the West is very different. Unless you live in the other country for a long time, it is difficult to completely change in a short time.

In later generations, food bloggers have tried it overseas. Authentic Chinese food cannot instantly capture the stomachs of Westerners. After eating a few meals, they still choose the rough way of eating mashed potatoes with salt.

Only after living in the mainland for a long time and adapting to the local climate and soil can you taste the difference in spiciness between Sichuan and Hunan cuisine.

The taste of Chinese food is too subtle. It is very technically difficult to expect a group of people who eat bread and jam as their main meal to become gourmets.

. . . . . . . . . . .

"Mr. Ma, we have more programs to do, please get in the car."

"More programs? Forget it! Minister Inoue, please don't be too polite."

"You're welcome, you're welcome, it's my duty."

After finishing the meal, Minister Inoue did not let Ma Zhaoxian, Li Ye and others leave, and insisted on letting them feel his "sincerity".

Ma Zhaoxian and others had no objection, they were going out for an inspection! It was normal for the host to arrange some programs.

But when Minister Inoue pulled everyone to a street in Shibuya, Li Ye was dumbfounded.

[You little dwarf actually used this to test the cadres? You are so vicious! 】

Li Ye quickly grabbed Ma Zhaoxian, who was in the front, and whispered in his ear: "Deputy Manager Ma, I heard that the hot spring bathing inside is for both men and women."

Ma Zhaoxian was shocked: "What? For both men and women? Then do you wear clothes?"

Li Ye said helplessly: "I don't know, how about we go in and try?"

"Forget it! If someone catches you, you will never be able to turn over in your life."

Ma Zhaoxian quickly stopped everyone from entering, and asked Liu Muhan to explain to Inoue and others that he was too full and sleepy, and wanted to go back to the hotel to sleep.

Minister Inoue repeatedly refused, but Ma Zhaoxian was very persistent, and finally he could only arrange a car to take Li Ye and others back.

But when the car just started, Li Ye quickly patted Ma Zhaoxian's shoulder.

"Deputy Manager Ma, look over there!"

"Where? What are you looking at? Um. Wow~"

At the door of a custom shop a few dozen meters away, two people walked out with red faces.

It turned out to be Secretary Guo and Gu Jianqi who went out to visit friends yesterday and have not returned yet.

"Uncle Ma, do you want to stop the car?"

"No, he saw us."

Ma Zhaoxian looked out for a few times and then turned his head back, but a few traces of sneer and irony appeared on his face.

Li Ye was also wondering in his heart, is this a personal hobby of Secretary Guo and others, or was it deliberately arranged by someone to hold someone responsible?
