Game Development Giant

The symposium with the Mainland Commercial Counselor was scheduled for the afternoon. After signing the contract with Sun Renchao in the morning, he rushed back all the way, and finally rushed back to San Francisco after lunch.

The symposium was held at Grandpa Jester’s hotel in San Francisco.

In addition to running a chain of Chinese restaurants, Jester's grandfather also owns several chains of Western-style hotels, but the levels are not high. Only the one in San Francisco has the highest four-star rating, and the others are all three-stars.

The official start of this symposium was after lunch.

Jester had previously obtained information about this commercial counselor from his grandfather. It seemed that he had just come from China. As soon as he came to the United States, he contacted Jester's grandfather. After hearing Jester's After my grandfather organized an investment group to go to the mainland, he wanted to talk to these Chinese who were interested in investing in the mainland.

Dispel their concerns about the mainland.

It was half past one when Jester arrived at his grandfather's hotel. The symposium was scheduled for two o'clock in a large conference room in the hotel. Grandpa Jester originally planned to have everyone have a meal together. Yes, but it didn’t happen because of the polite refusal of the commercial counselor from mainland China.

This conference room was on the top floor of the hotel. Jester looked around boredly while waiting for the elevator.

Then, his eyes changed and his expression became dull.

He saw a girl wearing a white dress, and the face that had been popping up in his mind for more than two months gradually became clear.

It was the girl named Qin Shuyao whom he met in the bookstore in Los Angeles before.

She was still wearing the plain white dress she wore in the bookstore in Los Angeles, with the neat ponytail, small black leather shoes, and white cotton socks, just like when Jester saw her in Los Angeles.

Then Jester saw a man following her who was dressed incompatibly with the country of America.

The other person is young and Chinese, in his early thirties at most, with short, stylish hair, a pair of old-fashioned black-rimmed glasses, a clean and tidy Mao suit, and a pen in his breast pocket. , just from this outfit Jester was enough to judge the origin of the other party.

Obviously, Jester stared at a girl for a while, which naturally attracted the attention of the person being watched.

Qin Shuyao's face first showed a trace of anger, and then she glared in Jester's direction. When she saw Jester's face clearly, she couldn't help but reveal a look of surprise on her face.

"It's you!"

The girl's voice was a little unexpected. She didn't expect to meet the boy who lent her "The Unbearable Lightness of Being" here.

"It's me." Jester just nodded. Facing this girl, he suddenly became a little awkward and really didn't know what to say as a prelude.

"I've finished reading the book..." The girl obviously didn't talk to boys very often. She blushed a little as soon as she opened her mouth. Her voice was a little soft, but it was very pleasant to Jester's ears. "I went to your school to look for you. But they all said that you are unlikely to return to school before the holidays are over, so I planned to wait until you start school before returning it to you... I didn't expect to meet you here today."

"Haha." Not knowing what to say, Jester could only laugh twice and said, "It doesn't matter, I'm not in a hurry to read that book."

"Is this Mr. Li Jie?" The man dressed as a mainland intellectual came closer and asked with a smile.

"no."

This time, before Jester could admit it, Qin Shuyao took the initiative and said, "Brother-in-law, his name is Jester Lee. He is a Chinese American. He is studying at UCL. The book I was reading before was "The Unbearable Life". "Light" was lent to me by him."

"Haha!" This time, the man whom Qin Shuyao called uncle laughed and said in a teasing tone, "Shu Yao, I asked you to be my assistant and help me sort out some things. Regarding information about Chinese entrepreneurs in the United States, you don’t even know who Jester Lee is?”

These words made Qin Shu's jade-like cheeks turn red, extending all the way to her white neck. She furrowed her beautiful eyebrows and seemed to be thinking hard, trying to remember what the big boy named Jester Li in front of her had. What was special about it, but after thinking about it for a while, she still had no idea. She could only look at her uncle in confusion.

"You don't usually watch the news?" Qin Shuyao's uncle could only ask.

Qin Shuyao shook his head again.

At this time, her brother-in-law laughed and cursed with a bit of hatred: "With your attitude, you still want to be my deputy. If you weren't my niece, I would definitely scold you to death."

"Hmph!" Qin Shuyao also snorted angrily at what his uncle said. He stared at his uncle and said fiercely, "If you dare to scold me, I will tell my aunt that you are bullying me." Let me see how my aunt will deal with you after you go back!"

"Okay, I won't make trouble with you anymore." Qin Shuyao's uncle waved his hand. He moved his eyes to Jester, stretched out his hand, and showed a standard diplomatic smile on his face, neither humble nor overbearing. , neither flattering nor alienating, said in a very formal tone, "Yang Hailong, Commercial Counselor of the Los Angeles Consulate."

"Li Jie, Jester Li, you should have heard my name." Jester also smiled and held the hand of the commercial counselor named Yang Hailong.

"Of course." Yang Hailong nodded without saying too much. Then he changed the topic and asked curiously, "I think you two have known each other before?"

Then, Jester told her about his encounter with Qin Shuyao in a bookstore in Los Angeles. Of course, he didn't mention the fact that he chased her out to deliver books or that he took the initiative to tie Qin Shuyao's shoelaces.

He also clearly saw that Qin Shuyao's nervous and red face showed a look of relaxation after he didn't mention tying his shoelaces.

But seeing Jester looking at her, Qin Shuyao looked away with embarrassment.

"That's it." Yang Hailong also showed a clear look.

However, the way he looked at Jester was still a little weird, and Jester was also a little uncomfortable with the look. Jester, who was worried, couldn't take the initiative to ask why he looked at him with such a look. Fortunately, Jester looked at him with such a look. Yang Hailong's weird look only lasted for a while and then returned to normal.

After the elevator door opened, Jester, Yang Hailong and Qin Shuyao walked into the elevator together.

"I heard from Mr. Li that you plan to invest tens of millions of dollars in China this time?" Yang Hailong asked proactively in the elevator.

Jester did not deny this. He nodded directly and admitted: "I plan to build a large-scale electronic product manufacturing center in China. The labor cost in the United States is too high."

Yang Hailong nodded after hearing this and continued to ask: "Has the location been selected?"

Jester shook his head and continued: "I plan to go to the country to have a look, but it must be on the coast. I am more optimistic about Shenzhen now. After all, it is a special zone, and the conditions and benefits are better."

Yang Hailong smiled after hearing this. He seemed to think for a moment before he said: "Actually, Mr. Li, no matter where you place your investment of tens of millions of dollars in the country, the benefits and conditions will be the same. What conditions Shenzhen can enjoy can also be enjoyed in other places. Moreover, the country has received news from here that it attaches great importance to your investment. Minister Jiang of the Ministry of Electronics Industry has given instructions to make sure your investment is clear. As for your investment goals, you can mention whatever conditions you have.”

This surprised Jester. He didn't expect that an investment plan he just talked about while chatting with his grandfather would actually attract such attention from a high-ranking ministerial official.

As he spoke, Yang Hailong sighed and said: "Although many foreign investors have invested in the country before, most of them were in industries that purely squeezed human resources with very low technical content. However, your investment this time is The electronics industry is the most important in the country, not to mention your investment amount is so huge."

Jester blushed a little when he heard this, and he couldn't help but take the initiative to correct it: "Actually, what I plan to invest in is only OEM assembly with supplied materials. This is just an industry that squeezes manpower."

"I know." When Yang Hailong heard what Jester said, he nodded, indicating that he understood, and then continued, "But even so, it has never happened before in the country."

As he spoke, his tone became a little lower: "Even if it is just OEM assembly, only foreign electronic products are bought domestically, but domestic electronic products have never been sold to foreign countries, even though you only plan to build an electronic product domestically. manufacturing center, but for us, this is a good start. Once there is one, there will be two. We just hope to prove that our Chinese workers can also make such high-tech things."

"So..." Yang Hailong looked at Jester with intense eyes. He licked his lips and said with great envy, "Minister Jiang has promised to meet you in person when you go to the mainland. As for what you will do, You will know what kind of support you can get in addition to these benefits on paper, and Minister Jiang will be promoted again after this change of office. I heard that he is going to Shanghai this time to serve as The top one."

Jester was a little moved after hearing what the other party said. He suddenly remembered who the Minister Jiang was talking about in Yang Hailong's mouth.

He suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked in the calmest tone possible: "Minister Jiang? Which Minister Jiang?"

Yang Hailong glanced at Jester in surprise, and he said strangely: "You are not planning to invest in China, and you still don't know which minister is in charge of your area? There is only Minister Jiang in the Ministry of Electronic Industry. , why should I return which river is long? It’s the river with three o’clock water!”

"It's indeed him."

After hearing Yang Hailong's reply, Jester also determined who the Minister Jiang he was talking about was.
