Scalia looked at Fang Lang, who was smiling across his face, and wanted to slap him in the face.
He was rude when receiving benefits, and just when he wanted to make a request, he started to talk to himself.
He smiled helplessly and said:
"Fang, don't get me wrong, I have no intention of getting involved in the Fangyuan Group's union.
I am very clear about Fangyuan Group’s position and agree with it.
However, I think Fang and you know very well that the Fangyuan Group Trade Union is a very large organization.
Politically, he had unparalleled influence.
Whether it is our National League, the Social Democratic Party, or the Labor Party that founded the trade union, they are all very concerned about this force.
Especially your Fangyuan Group has nearly 100,000 workers in Sao Paulo alone.
And you attach great importance to improving the quality of workers, and have opened many night schools and training classes in factories. The number of illiterate workers is gradually decreasing.
And our Brazilian electoral system determines that this will be a huge vote bank.
What I mean is, do you understand? "
Fang Lang thought to himself, do you still need to remind me of this?
If it weren't for the sake of giving all these workers the right to vote, am I crazy to spend so much energy on setting up training classes and night classes?
"Don't worry, Mr. Mayor, we are friends.
I can commit you now, within election time.
The group union can specifically organize workers to participate in the election activities of your organization.
As for whether you can convince the workers to vote for your candidate, that depends on your ability. "
Although Fang Lang's answer was slightly different from Mayor Scalia's inner thoughts, it was not nothing.
Having an opportunity to directly face voters to canvass votes is a worthwhile trip.
As for whether Fang Lang will organize workers and participate in other parties' election activities, it is beyond his control.
This is the freedom of the other party and the right of the voters.
The Fangyuan Group also has no right to let voters only participate in their National League campaign.
Although Mayor Scalia is a little disappointed, as a mature politician, he cannot show it.
Instead, he said with a smile:
“That’s really great.
Fang, on behalf of our Kuomintang, I would like to express my gratitude to your Fangyuan Group. "
Fang Lang smiled and seemed to glance at his cousin Yang Qian who had been sitting behind the sofa accidentally:
"Haha... Mr. Mayor, you don't have to be too polite.
Our Fang family and your KMT are one family. "
Mayor Scalia, who was still a little disappointed, noticed Fang Lang's eyes and felt happy.
He laughed and said:
"Yes, yes, we are a family.
Haha...we are a family! "
It seems that this trick of finding a secretary is really useful!
Mayor Scalia thought secretly proudly.
"If you need any help, please don't hesitate.
We are a family and we should help each other. "
Mayor Scalia continued to reiterate.
Fang Lang thought of the hospital plan he had just discussed with his father and laughed loudly:
"Mr. Mayor, since we are a family, I will not let you suffer.
How about this! I know that our public medical resources in Sao Paulo are very scarce.
In order to repay Mr. Mayor for his care for me and my father, our Fangyuan Group can invest heavily in building a large comprehensive hospital in Sao Paulo. "
Mayor Scalia was obviously caught off guard by Fang Lang’s unbridled operations. Aren’t we discussing unions and votes?
Why do you suddenly want to throw money at me?
As the second largest city in Brazil, Sao Paulo is certainly not without hospitals.
The mayor is also very clear about the role of hospitals. They are a very important part of public health in a city.
Although the investment in building a hospital now is far less huge than the investment in building a hospital in later generations.
But this is indeed a real political achievement.
Especially if the hospital is strong enough, it can improve the happiness index of citizens.
Of course, there is no such thing as a happiness index yet.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t know what the happiness index is. As long as you know that during your term of office, for the sake of the health of the citizens, you added a large hospital in Sao Paulo.
It’s enough to take it out and brag about it.
"Oh! That's great. On behalf of the city government, I would like to extend a warm welcome.
Tomorrow I will ask the department responsible for public health to come over to discuss the construction of the hospital with your company.
Please be assured that our municipal government will definitely give you the greatest discount when it comes to building land for the hospital. "
In fact, when Fang Lang stated that the Fang family and he were a family, he was already satisfied.
Now Fangyuan Group has invested in an additional large hospital, which is the icing on the cake.
Scalia was very satisfied with what he had achieved today by lowering his profile and rushing to Fangyuan Group.
Fang Xinshan knew Fang Lang's purpose of building the hospital, but he didn't expect that his son would use it as support for the municipal government.
This really kills two birds with one stone!
I couldn't help but give a thumbs up to my son in my heart.
After talking about the hospital, Fang Lang asked casually:
"I wonder if Mr. Mayor is familiar with insurance companies in Brazil, so it would be inconvenient for him to introduce me to an insurance company with relatively large scale and strength.
I have a business deal I want to talk to him about. "
Scalia glanced at Fang Lang in surprise and then said:
“Of course, we have Jumai Insurance in Sao Paulo, the largest insurance company in Brazil, and I am a very good friend with their boss, Javed Jumai.
If you need it, I can help you contact him now. "
Fang Lang smiled and nodded:
"My time is tight. I have to go to Rio de Janeiro tomorrow. See if you can help me make an appointment with him today."
Mayor Scalia said very cheerfully:
"No problem, I'll call him now."
After saying that, he went directly to the desk, picked up the phone and dialed.
After a brief chat, he came back directly and said to Fang Lang:
"Fang, I have already made an appointment with the other party. How about he come over here for an interview now?"
Fang Lang shrugged indifferently and said:
"Of course, that would be great."
Scalia was not very clear about Fang Lang's thoughts and thought that the other party wanted to discuss cooperation with the insurance company after the hospital was established.
The other party came over very quickly. After all, the business introduced by Mr. Mayor still needs to be treated with a minimum of respect.
Under the guidance of the staff, Javed Umai entered the Fangyuan Group office and was startled when he saw the people in the office.
He is not familiar with the situation of Fangyuan Group, but he knows that Fangyuan Group is a powerful industrial group that has been in the limelight in Brazil recently.
When I entered the company, I saw soldiers standing guard outside, and I didn't know why for a while.
But when I entered the office, I was surprised to find an officer wearing a major general uniform sitting in the conference room.
It's not that I'm afraid, I just don't understand why I was called here to discuss business, and why there is a general here.
Fortunately, the first time Mayor Scalia saw him, he stood up and said to everyone in the office:
"Haha... Javed my friend, come in."
After speaking, he said to everyone in the office:
"Let me introduce to you, this is Javed Umai, the owner of Umai Insurance Company."
Everyone stood up and said hello.
Scalia then introduced everyone in the office to Mr. Umay.
After everyone is seated, guests and hosts are divided.
Javid Umai is a rare mixed-race middle-aged man, a very rare type among the Brazilian elite, which is now mainly white.
Before Fang Lang and others could speak, Youmai spoke.
"Mr. Fang, good afternoon!
Thank you for your trust in Yumai Insurance.
Don't know how we can help you! "
Youmai didn't know much about Yuan Group, so he asked this question to Fang Xinshan.
Fang Xinshan actually didn't know what Fang Lang was thinking, and he didn't quite understand why Fang Lang did what he did.
So, he smiled and shook his head and said:
“Actually, it’s my son who wants to ask you something.
So, you’d better ask him! "
Fang Lang looked at the somewhat embarrassed Javed Umai, smiled and said directly:
"Haha... Don't mind Mr. Yumai, since you are Scalia's friend, you are my friend.
I came to you today. The main thing I want to ask you is, if our company's employees pay 42 Cruzeiro every month, can they buy a medical insurance in your company? "
Hearing Fang Lang's words, Javed Umai was stunned and said with some surprise:
"Wait a minute, I have to calculate it. If you pay 42 cruseiros every month, then one year will be..."
As he spoke, he took out a notebook from his suit pocket and prepared to start calculations.
Seeing this scene, Fang Lang reminded him softly:
“42 cruseiros a month, that’s 504 cruseiros a year.”
Javed Umai heard Fang Lang's words and looked up at Fang Lang with surprise, as if he didn't believe how he could calculate so quickly.
However, he did not ask for the exit, but shook his head and said:
"Mr. Fang, if there are only 504 Cruzeiro a year, we may not be able to insure it.
Our company's basic medical insurance project requires a minimum annual payment of 1,000 Cruzeiro. "
Fang Lang silently calculated in his mind that 1,000 Cruzeiro is about 54 US dollars, which is not a small amount.
Judging by the value of the U.S. dollar during this period, this medical insurance is really beyond the reach of ordinary people.
This is equivalent to one-third of a worker's annual salary to purchase the most basic medical insurance.
Fang Lang knew without asking that the content covered by this most basic medical insurance might be enough to cure a headache or fever.
Of course, in this era where colds and fevers can kill people, being able to cure headaches and brain fever can be regarded as solving the medical needs of most people.
This medical insurance will certainly not cover the use of high-priced drugs such as penicillin.
But Fang Lang believes that he can provide such basic medical insurance to factory employees and make the workers grateful.
“What if we gave it to 100,000 people at the same time?”
Based on the current average salary level of factory workers, asking each person to take out 14 cruseiros from his salary every month is already the limit.
It would definitely not be realistic to ask the factory to spend more money as subsidies, because Fang Lang is not here to do charity.
Therefore, we can only use the huge amount of underwriting to suppress Javed Umai and see if we can impress the other party.
When Javed Umay heard this amount, his brain suddenly shut down.
This number is more than all the current customers of their company combined.
To say that I am not moved would definitely be a lie.
But Javed Umay's reason still suppressed the urge to agree.
Pick up your notebook and continue calculating.
