Chapter 935: Norwegian Assist
Although there were some setbacks along the way, fortunately it was not a live broadcast, so the interview ended normally.
When the director shouted "cut" for the last time, the host realized that his entire back was soaked...
And Long Yongtu, who had been watching from the side, had several wet toilet papers on his hands...
"My superiors sent me here this time because they were worried that you were inexperienced and would be in a bad state or nervous during the long interview."
Long Yongtu looked at Chang Haonan, who seemed to be in high spirits and still in high spirits, and shook his head helplessly:
"Now it seems that I was completely overthinking..."
"When running a business, the key is to be honest."
Chang Haonan sorted out the materials he brought with him but didn't use , while answering:
"So, I just say whatever I have to say."
Hearing this, Long Yongtu's expression almost couldn't be held back, thinking that I would never believe you, and finally bit the tip of his tongue hard to hold back his laughter, so he quickly changed the subject:
"I'll host tonight, on behalf of our Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation, thank Comrade Haonan..."
"..."
On the other side, Director He Gang of the News Center also came to the host who was almost slumped on the sofa:
"Xiaokang, you did a good job today, and responded...very timely."
Even if it is not a live broadcast, if the interview is cut off too many times, the final film effect will be greatly reduced.
More importantly, it is impossible to let the interviewee cooperate with you to re-record indefinitely.
So, it is better to pass it once.
And he was able to stabilize the situation in such a chaotic situation, and it was obvious that his professional level was quite strong.
The host wiped the sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand:
"I think today is simply a disaster in my hosting career..."
"Not so, not so..."
He Gang quickly gave his subordinates psychological construction.
In the past two years, many well-known CCTV hosts have gone out to work on their own. The staff is already tight. If a capable person loses his mind because of a program, the loss will be huge.
"Director He."
At this time, Chang Haonan's voice suddenly came from not far behind.
"Mr. Chang."
The two stood up quickly.
"I hope that the part about the purpose of the prosecution in the middle can be completely preserved when it is broadcast."
Today's interview lasted about 45 minutes in total, but when the program was broadcast, the opening and ending credits and advertisements were removed, and there was only about 35 minutes of actual content.
Therefore, some unimportant parts must be cut out.
But Chang Haonan's statement was aimed at making a big news, so naturally it couldn't be deleted casually.
"This..."
He Gang was sweating all over.
He suddenly felt that today might be a disaster in his career.
If someone else was the interviewee, then at the level of CCTV, it would be cut.
But as a valuable interviewee of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation, Chang Haonan's statement was quite weighty.
"Mr. Chang, the production and broadcast of this program need to be decided by the superiors. We at the news center level... can't directly approve this..."
But how could Chang Haonan let the other party deal with it casually:
"This matter is very important, so... please ask for instructions now."
"..."
In short, Chang Haonan's request was finally met.
A few days later, CCTV broadcast the entire interview process on Sunday evening.
Only a few small questions at the beginning and the end were cut due to time reasons, and all the key parts were retained.
And it was on the same day that Torch Group formally submitted the relevant evidence collected previously to the two courts in Brussels and Beijing.
The combination of the two directly triggered the topic.
Originally, the shipbuilding industry, especially the civilian shipbuilding industry, was not very noticeable in the world.
However, Chang Haonan's interview was too essential.
Especially the part "I'm suing you for your own good", if it was put in the Internet era, it would have become a famous meme.
More importantly, Chang Haonan was not just talking nonsense.
After the show was broadcast, Torch Group published a long open letter in Chinese, English and French, explaining from a technical perspective why the BOG reliquefaction system could not be directly grafted onto LNG ships using Technigaz cargo tanks.
At the end of the open letter, Chang Haonan also added a paragraph, saying that Samsung Offshore's behavior was not only an infringement on the interests of Torch Group, but also irresponsible to the entire industry and all mankind. If it continues to act on its own, it will be a shame.
After such a toss, this matter has basically been widely circulated around the world, especially in China, and in EU countries-
At the beginning of the 21st century, environmental protection issues have basically become a part of political correctness in Europe.
The Torch Group has been emphasizing the terms "environmental pollution" and "climate disaster" on various occasions, and with the help of some "media public relations fees", it is naturally easy to spread.
Anyway, the purpose of cutting off in advance has definitely been achieved.
Now the spectators may not even know what LNG is, but they know that a Chinese company has issued a danger warning...
To be fair, Chang Haonan has done his best to be as benevolent as he is now.
In particular, the open letter, with the permission of the Hudong factory, even disclosed a small part of the technical details of the BOG reliquefaction system to explain why this system must be used with the relatively conservative Gas-Transport cargo tank.
Logically speaking, even if Koreans are more courageous, facing such fierce public opinion, they should at least stop and check.
After all, if the ship really explodes, they will be the ones who suffer the worst fate.
But at this most critical juncture, something unexpected happened...
…
Inside the manager’s office of Geoje Shipyard.
Yin Zhongxian was looking at the meeting minutes on the table in front of him with a burning head.
"Axi..."
In less than 10 days, LNG ships, an unpopular industry that had never been heard of before, almost became the hottest topic on the streets.
At first, Samsung Offshore was suddenly sued by Torch Group.
In fact, this incident did not surprise him, and it was nothing worth paying attention to.
As the main finalizer of the LNG design plan, Yin Zhongxian is very sure that his technical team has avoided all sensitive points in the other party's patent.
The remaining marginal ones can easily be dealt with by concealing the truth.
But before he could laugh at his opponent's incompetent rage, the next combo followed.
For a time, almost the whole world was filled with reports that the LNG ships in their shipyards might explode.
The lethality of this kind of thing is still relatively large.
Even Samsung Offshore's stock price has been affected.
Ordinarily, Samsung can actually sue Torch Group for maliciously spreading rumors and even manipulating the stock market.
but……
You know your own affairs well.
Most people think that Chang Haonan's words "Samsung Offshore Engineering has not fully understood the contents of our patents" were meant to mock.
However, Yin Zhongxian feels a little guilty about this...
"Manager Yin."
Looking at Yin Zhongxian who was bowing his head and keeping silent, An Zhenze, the vice president of Samsung Offshore Engineering sitting opposite him, frowned:
"Can your technical department ensure the safety of these ships?"
Yin Zhongxian opened his mouth.
He wanted to answer truthfully and said that I originally thought I could, but now I am a little unsure...
But if this sentence is spoken, it obviously means that the career will go directly to the grave.
Moreover, it is impossible for him to have a place in the entire Korean offshore industry... or even the entire world's offshore industry.
Therefore, Yin Zhongxian finally nodded and said in as firm a tone as possible:
"Can."
For a moment, the office fell into an eerie silence.
Of course, Yin Zhongxian is not a fool.
He knew very well that if something happened to these ships, it would not only be his career that would go to the grave.
Therefore, after a moment of silence, Yin Zhongxian directly pushed 256:
"But President An, I think the key now is the Norwegian side. If they feel there is a risk, we should respect Party A's opinion anyway..."
In his opinion, the rumors outside have spread as they are now, and Party A, no matter how determined it is, should not be able to sit still.
As long as the Norwegian feels that it is not possible, whether he asks to cancel the order or to change the technical solution, he can save the situation without sticking the pan at all.
In fact, this idea cannot be said to be wrong.
If you are a normal Party A, you must consider stopping the project at this time and make long-term plans.
But the problem is...
This time Party A is not normal.
The focus of the Norwegians is not on these ships at all.
Or rather, they were the happiest after learning that these ships might have fatal flaws.
They came here for liquidated damages from the beginning.
This time, there is no need to even use small tricks.
Then, Yin Zhongxian heard the answer that made his heart and lungs stop:
"I've already asked about this."
"Party A means to fully believe in all our decisions and does not need to ask for their opinions, as long as the ship can be delivered on time."
An Zhenze crossed his legs and stared sharply at Yin Zhongxian:
"So, Manager Yin."
"Let me confirm with you one last time, can we guarantee the safety of these ships?"
