Chapter 221: The Submissive QA and the Brave Heart
;
"Xinyi, why were you so quiet the past few nights and didn't call me much? Are you tired from the trip and fell asleep when you got to the hotel?"
Tang Xinyi smiled and said: "Haha, last time I was at Tiantong Zen Temple, I invited a few Buddhist scriptures such as the Diamond Sutra and Surangama Sutra to come back to study. Later, I bought a few vernacular versions from Xinhua Bookstore in Beijing. Back to After we got to the hotel, the more I looked at it, the more I liked it, and I forgot to call you..."
"Xinyi, it seems that you are very close to Buddha!"
"Hehe, maybe. Fan, I told my dad and mommy that I want to go to the China Academy of Art in Hangzhou for a short-term Chinese painting training class in the middle of this month, and I will come back after the summer vacation in July. Singapore. I like the feeling and artistic conception of Hangzhou and West Lake..."
"Well, I support you. When I have time, I will make more time to come to Hangzhou to see you."
"You have to come see me more often!"
…
Early the next morning, Jeffrey, the vice president of the QA company, took the initiative to call Li Xiaofan and made an appointment to come to the office for a meeting at ten in the morning.
As soon as they met, Jeffrey relented: "Director Li, I called the headquarters to report last night, and we decided to agree to your conditions. However, we may not prepare 100,000 US dollars of goods in your company at once. Let’s start based on actual needs. We will prepare some probes of various types. We plan to prepare 50,000 US dollars of goods to be your company’s exclusive agent..."
Li Xiaofan smiled: "Originally, you proposed the stocking of 100,000 US dollars. The specific quantity can be determined according to the actual situation. No matter how much, stocking is on demand. If the sales are good, you can stock more next time."
The meeting between the two parties in the morning was very pleasant.
At noon, Li Xiaofan and Aaron invited Jeffrey and the others to have a seafood meal on the east coast.
I came back to the office in the afternoon and received a quotation from Ng Xiumei for NTUC Affordable Cooperative. After checking that there were no major problems, I forwarded it to Yang Yonghui of NTUC Affordable Cooperative for his confirmation.
Afterwards, a person locked himself in the office and began to draft a business plan to be submitted to Ascendas Group.
Li Xiaofan had written many such business plans in his previous life, and he was very good at writing them, but now he needed some detailed data to support them. In the meantime, he called Manager Liang Xiaojun of Hewlett-Packard Company and asked for some data and materials.
The project needs to be well "beautified and packaged" in the business plan.
For example, if the product is written directly as a "test fixture", it feels too low and low-end. Most of the people in the Ascendas Investment Promotion Department have business backgrounds, and they don't quite understand these terms in the electronics industry.
In the report, Li Xiaofan wrote "test fixtures" as "customized semiconductor and electronic precision testing supporting equipment" and "writing supporting test programs" as "developing high-end semiconductor and electronic testing software"...
…
Unknowingly, it was past seven o'clock in the evening when I wrote. My colleagues in the big office had already got off work. The lights were already on outside the glass windows, and the bustling city nightlife began to become lively.
Suddenly, his phone rang, it was Tang Xinyi calling.
"Fan, where are you?"
"I'm still writing materials in the office..."
"So diligent! Have you had dinner?"
"No, I was just going back to the dormitory to eat something."
"Then just wait for me and I'll pick you up. Let's go to Orchard Road to have something to eat and then watch a newly released movie?"
"What movie are you going to watch?"
"I plan to read the newly released Braveheart. Have you read it?"
"Haha, my dear, since I had you, I have never gone to the movies alone!"
"Okay, then just wait for me."
"Where are you now?"
"I just drove out from home and told my mother that I would have a dance class tonight hehe..."
"Well, then I'll wait for you in the office. When you get there, call me and I'll go downstairs."
Half an hour later, after Tang Xinyi picked up Li Xiaofan, the two ran to Orchard Road.
After they simply ate some vegetable salad, hamburgers and drinks, they ran into the Lido Cinema.
The movie "Braveheart" is a war film produced by Paramount Pictures in the United States, starring Sophie Marceau and Mel Gibson. The film is based on the court politics of England in the 19th century, with war as its core. It tells the story of William Wallace, the leader of the Scottish rebellion, and his indomitable struggle with the English rulers.
The film was released simultaneously in the United States and Singapore in May 1995. The next year, it won 5 awards including Best Picture and Best Director at the 68th Academy Awards in 1996.
In the movie "Braveheart", the French princess Isabella played by Sophie Marceau is noble, elegant, dignified and unyielding. Isabella later married Prince Edward of England. Due to an unsatisfactory marriage, after hearing about Wallace's deeds and meeting him in person, I was deeply attracted by his courage and courage. When Edward wanted to surround Wallace's Scottish army, she fell in love with Wallace's arrogance and came to the station to confide her true feelings to him. The two were intoxicated in the happiness of love...
Sophie Marceau was at her most beautiful and youthful age back then. The French princess Isabella played by Sophie Marceau was so stunningly beautiful! With her beautiful, melancholy big eyes, she has both Western sensuality and Eastern charm, sometimes pure, sometimes enchanting, sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes intoxicating...
Tang Xinyi took Li Xiaofan's arm and sighed: "Sophie Marceau is so beautiful!"
Li Xiaofan complimented: "You are not much worse than her..."
Tang Xinyi said angrily: "Haha, you flatterer! I still know myself. I am far worse than Sophie Marceau..."
Li Xiaofan had actually seen this classic blockbuster "Brave Heart" in his previous life. When he watched this movie again, he was still deeply shocked. The whole movie was nearly 180 minutes long. Wallace's last line in the plot was "FREEDOM!" It was shocking!
Wallace shouted heroically. The heart-wrenching cry represented his unrepentant pursuit of freedom in his life. It seemed that he was using his life to burst out the last strength, which made a group of viewers burst into tears!
After watching the movie, Tang Xinyi drove Li Xiaofan back to the townhouse dormitory.
This time, she kissed Li Xiaofan gently and said goodbye: "Dear, go to bed early, good night!"
Li Xiaofan smiled and said: "Xinyi, you seem to have changed a lot after your trip to the mainland..."
Tang Xinyi asked curiously: "Where has it changed?"
"You may not notice it yourself, I feel that you are not as passionate as before!"
Tang Xinyi laughed: "Haha, maybe it's because I have been studying scriptures recently, I seem to be more pure and unselfish. But, Fan, I still love you! Come on, let's have a passionate kiss!"
While the two were playing, Li Xiaofan's mobile phone rang. It was a landline from the United States.
"Hello, good morning, is this Li?" The caller was Mike, the head of the purchasing department of ALCO Department Store in the United States.
"Good morning, Mike!"
"Li, I have good news to tell you. We have approved all the quotations you sent. I have asked my assistant to fax the formal order to your company office earlier, and I also sent an email to your email address just now!"
"Wow, great, thank you, Mike!"
