"You just told those tourists that Zhou Zhihai was lying to them, right?" Dong Qiangqiang couldn't help but ask Chen Xia, who was walking in front with his head lowered, "Is it Lao Baizhi's trick?"
"Zhou Zhihai?" Chen Xia raised his head and was stunned for a second before he realized, "Oh, you're talking about the tour guide, right?"
"right."
"Well, Brother Bai pointed out a few aunties to me who looked like they were not easy to mess with. As expected, those aunties turned around before they heard what I had to say." Chen Xia smiled bitterly, "Then they went directly to find the one you mentioned. Zhou Zhihai reasoned. Oh, by the way, those aunties are all from the Northeast."
Dong Qiangqiang thought of the shoe mark on Zhou Zhihai's face again, and thought to himself, it's a good thing that the aunts didn't wear high heels when shopping, otherwise Zhou Zhihai would have broken up.
Following Chen Xia, Dong Qiangqiang quickly arrived near a rest area in the shopping street.
The rest area is an area of about 80 square meters paved with blue bricks, and a small stage rises from the center of the brick floor. A tall female host with long hair was interviewing a middle-aged man with gray hair and a well-proportioned figure.
The middle-aged man has a standard hairstyle for business men, his beard is obviously carefully groomed, and he wears a well-tailored suit, giving him a kind of gentle and elegant look. He listened to the female host's questions with a smile, and then began to answer them in an orderly manner.
Dong Qiangqiang noticed that there were about 20 people in the crowd in front of the stage. They were men and women, old and young. However, the Zhang Bo that Chen Xia mentioned was standing alone outside the crowd and looking at the stage. His wife was not beside him. .
Chen Xia pointed at Uncle Zhang, said "You two can chat slowly" and then disappeared into the bustling crowd.
"Uncle Zhang, are you looking for me?" Dong Qiangqiang approached Uncle Zhang and asked softly.
"Oh, Xiao Dong, you came just in time." Uncle Zhang pointed to the person on the stage, "Can you help me translate what he is saying?"
"Of course, no problem." Dong Qiangqiang turned his attention to the stage. While listening to the answers between the female host and the male guest, he glanced at the roll-up banner behind the two people on the stage. He saw "Bavaria Investment Promotion Agency" and "Investment Promotion" printed on it. "Investment Attraction Seminar" and other words.
"He was introducing the advantages of Bavaria..." Dong Qiangqiang listened attentively and translated immediately.
Dong Qiangqiang's German level is actually far from the level of such simultaneous translation, but the question-and-answer format gave Dong Qiangqiang time to sort out his words.
"Bavaria... is located in the heart of Europe and has an excellent geographical location. It is an absolute hub for international trade."
"There are all kinds of convenient transportation here, such as high-speed rail, airports, highways and waterways."
Dong Qiangqiang was very nervous at first, fearing that he would miss important content because he could not understand what the other party said, but fortunately the male guest did not use the South German accent that worried him.
“There are 11 comprehensive universities, 17 universities of applied sciences, 3 Fraunhofer Institutes and 1 Helmholtz Research Center in the state. It is one of the most influential scientific research areas in Germany and even the world. . Therefore, it is in a leading position in many scientific and technological fields, such as chemical industry, medicine, information, new energy, and high-end equipment manufacturing."
“There are also many large listed companies included in the German DAX stock index, such as BMW, Siemens, Adidas, etc. Working closely with them are the numerous small and medium-sized enterprises in the state. It is all these large and small Enterprises make up the state’s most important business landscape.”
Dong Qiangqiang was surprised to find that he seemed to understand these two sentences effortlessly, presumably because the knowledge points in the words were related to the knowledge he accumulated when reading newspapers.
"Bavaria is also the largest federal state in Germany. It has the majestic Alps, the Zugspitze, Germany's highest peak, and rivers, lakes and castles scattered everywhere. Of course, Neuschwanstein Castle is definitely the most dazzling pearl among them. . In addition, we also have the Hall of Fame with Einstein's name engraved on it, and the eternally beautiful Princess Sissi, although she later ran away to Austria." A burst of good-natured laughter broke out from the crowd.
"We will provide all investors with the most competitive policies and market support. Whether it is administrative procedures or tax exemptions, we will do our best to create the most superior business environment for investors." These words of Dong Qiangqiang It was very difficult to listen, and I could only figure out the meaning of the previous and following sentences based on the few words I understood to a limited extent.
“I am Matthias Nozer, deputy director of the Investment Promotion Agency, and I welcome anyone interested in investing in Bavaria to contact us.”
When the other party finally finished speaking, Dong Qiangqiang felt relieved. Although the weather was not good, his back was wet with sweat, as if he had just been fished out of the water. For the first time, he deeply realized that if his German was not good enough, he would not be able to serve as a translator.
"Xiao Dong," Uncle Zhang looked at Dong Qiangqiang expectantly and smiled sheepishly, "If there is a question-and-answer session later, can you help me ask him a few questions?"
"I'm very happy." Although Dong Qiangqiang felt tired, he still responded.
After the female host asked a few more questions, the interview came to an end. Several dancers in traditional Bavarian costumes swarmed onto the stage, and when the music started, they started dancing cheerfully.
Dong Qiangqiang led Uncle Zhang through the crowd to the other side of the stage, and found Nozel sitting alone on a chair, drinking water and reading materials. Dong Qiangqiang bravely shouted: "Hello, Mr. Nozel."
Hearing someone calling his name, Nozel subconsciously looked up and found two foreigners standing not far from him. He immediately nodded politely and responded with a smile: "Hello! Are you okay?"
"That's right, we have some questions that we would like to ask you about." Seeing that the other party did not dislike him, Dong Qiangqiang hurriedly introduced Uncle Zhang to him.
"What problem do you have?" Nozel asked as he stood up and walked towards the two of them.
"I would like to know if you provide "one-stop" consulting and landing services related to starting a company? For example, how do I register a company in Bavaria? How do I find an office space? Can you help my Chinese employees apply for a residence permit? And will you provide direct financial subsidies or tax exemption policies?" Uncle Zhang asked a long list of questions in one breath, and then looked at Dong Qiangqiang longingly.
While translating these words into German, Dong Qiangqiang was glad that he had understood all the content related to starting a company before, otherwise he would not be able to express it perfectly.
After hearing this, Nozel did not rush to answer his questions. Instead, he took out two business cards and handed them to Uncle Zhang and Dong Qiangqiang respectively: "You are welcome to come to my office for an interview at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning. Thank you." After that, he He tucked his tie back into his suit, took his water bottle and walked back to the stage.
"Hey, why did he leave?" Uncle Zhang asked Dong Qiangqiang doubtfully, "Can't he say it now?"
But Dong Qiangqiang couldn't answer this question.
"Germans are so weird." Uncle Zhang looked at the thin business card in his hand and sighed, "It seems I can only ask him tomorrow. By the way, Xiaodong, are you free tomorrow morning?"
