"Uncle Zhang, I have to drive everyone to visit the city and surrounding attractions tomorrow." Dong Qiangqiang said softly, "Did you forget what Du Lan told everyone in the car on the way here?"
After being reminded like this by Dong Qiangqiang, Zhang Bo pretended to be suddenly enlightened and laughed at himself: "Oh, yes, look at my memory." He looked melancholy at the crowd watching outside the stage, with a look of loss on his face.
When Dong Qiangqiang saw this, he couldn't help but feel sympathy. He tentatively suggested: "Do you think this will work? I'll find a trustworthy person to accompany you to the Investment Promotion Bureau."
Hearing what Dong Qiangqiang said, Uncle Zhang seemed very happy: "It will be fine if the person you find is as good as you."
"Don't worry, his German is better than mine."
Uncle Zhang looked around cautiously and whispered: "Xiao Dong, I would like to thank you first, but no one else knows about this..."
At this time, Dong Qiangqiang had gotten rid of the nervousness he had felt during the German-Chinese translation. He immediately understood the other party's subtext and immediately raised his hands in a gesture: "Don't worry, I will definitely keep it secret. I will tell you as soon as I decide on the candidate."
"Then I'm waiting for your good news." Uncle Zhang patted Dong Qiangqiang's arm kindly. It was obvious that he was very satisfied with Dong Qiangqiang's emotional intelligence. "Xiao Dong, you can speak German and drive. You are very good. If I If we open a company here, international talents like you are very welcome to join us. Of course, don’t worry, I will definitely not treat you badly.”
"Then I would like to thank you first, and wish you all your wishes will come true." Dong Qiangqiang knew that the polite words on this occasion were just a social etiquette and did not need to be taken seriously, so he politely complimented the other party as a return gift.
After watching Uncle Zhang walk into a health care product store, Dong Qiangqiang dialed Lao Bai's cell phone. But before he could speak, Lao Bai had already said, "I was about to call you. I asked about Lei Lanting. No one knows the details, but I heard it's quite serious."
"Forget it, ignore him for now, I have something I need your help with. Are you free tomorrow morning?"
"Tomorrow morning? Let me think about it...well, I should be free."
“Just now, the Bavarian Investment Promotion Bureau held a seminar here to attract investment. I listened to it with Uncle Zhang. He wanted to consult with the other party, but the Germans made an appointment with him to go to the office at 9 a.m. tomorrow morning. "
"Definitely, this is all business, and the Germans will definitely not discuss it here." Old Bai changed the subject, "Do you want me to accompany him to communicate with the other party?"
"Hey, you are like a roundworm in my belly." Dong Qiangqiang had to admire Lao Bai's quick thinking. He is definitely the kind of person who has already guessed your next sentence as soon as you say the first sentence, and then tells you directly. The kind of guy who has his answers.
"It's definitely no problem to go." Lao Bai didn't hide anything and asked straight to the point, "Then did he give you a price? How much can he give you in a day?"
"He didn't... mention the money." Dong Qiangqiang had never thought that there was money here, so he was surprised and blurted out, "Is there an extra charge?"
"Of course." Lao Bai said bluntly, "He is no longer traveling, it is a business consultation. Not only does it require a fee, but the fee is not low. You didn't tell him that it was free, right?"
Dong Qiangqiang was dumbfounded. He was stunned for a moment before he remembered to answer: "Then...how do you usually charge for business consultation?"
"There is no standard price, it's all based on industry. Different industries charge different fees. For example, the price for travel consulting is definitely different from the price for investment immigration consulting." Lao Bai explained.
"Uncle Zhang seems to want to ask what kind of benefits the company can provide if he opens a company here. How much do they usually charge? Give me a price so I can ask him."
"The average price of several cases I have done before is almost 800 marks a day. You can ask him if he can accept it." Lao Bai said.
"800 a day?" Dong Qiangqiang immediately converted the money into RMB in his mind and couldn't help but clicked his tongue, "I estimate that this matter will only last three hours at most, not a day."
Lao Bai laughed angrily at Dong Qiangqiang's naivety: "According to what you say, if he only consults for a few minutes, I can only charge by the minute? In order to accompany him to the Investment Promotion Bureau, I have to give up the income from other jobs, then It certainly makes sense that he should pay me a fair salary, otherwise why would I offer him a job as a translator?”
"The question is, won't you be okay tomorrow?" Dong Qiangqiang was puzzled, "What if you pay such a high price and people find it too expensive and don't use you?"
"If it's too expensive, don't use it. I'll look for something else." Lao Bai didn't seem to care that Uncle Zhang didn't hire him, "It's the peak tourist season, and someone just called me to ask if I was free to take a European tour. "
Dong Qiangqiang was not sure whether Lao Bai was joking with him or serious. He paused for two seconds and said solemnly: "He can only do this for half a day at most. Do you have an internal price?"
"Where are you from?" Lao Bai said deliberately dissatisfied, "Why do you always stand in the other party's position and help him bargain for prices?"
"It's not that I'm on his side, but... this is really good for you."
"Is it good for me?" Lao Bai rolled his eyes, "How do you put it?"
"If he really decides to open a company here after consulting, then he will definitely need to recruit people who understand German, understand German people, and understand German culture. If you accompany him, then who else is more suitable for him than you in the future? What about working in the company? Even if your ambition is to be a tour guide and open a travel agency, or to go to the opera house and concert hall to play piano for the Germans, can Valin come to work? So if you help him, you are actually helping you. Do yourself and Valin a favor. Maybe one of you can solve the work problem. Who do you think?"
Lao Bai didn't seem to have considered this. He thought for a moment and asked, "Then did he tell you that he was going to recruit people here?"
"He didn't say it directly, but he did say just now that he hopes I can come and help him in the future." Dong Qiangqiang said truthfully.
"Hehe, maybe he wants you to be his son-in-law." Lao Bai deliberately teased.
"Okay, please give me a quick word," Dong Qiangqiang said bluntly, "If you really don't want to, I'll reject him."
Lao Bai thought for a while and said: "In this case, you tell him that the price is 500 for half a day. You don't need to consider the cost for him. His main request now is to find someone who can help him understand the real situation. If he really He is entangled in the issue of 400 or 500 for half a day. At best, he is a nouveau riche and will not really start a company here, so you can't waste more time on his affairs."
Dong Qiangqiang then thought about it and realized that Lao Bai's words were not unreasonable. He immediately conveyed Lao Bai's meaning to Uncle Zhang.
To Dong Qiangqiang's surprise, Uncle Zhang agreed to Lao Bai's offer without hesitation. At the same time, he thanked Dong Qiangqiang profusely and said he would treat him and Lao Bai to dinner alone in the evening.
Dong Qiangqiang still didn't take the other party's words seriously, and still said a few polite words before hanging up the phone.
But he couldn't help feeling a little regretful that he didn't help Lao Bai get more benefits, but now he could only secretly stamp his feet and blame himself, reminding himself that he would not do the same next time.
