Chapter 761 Mr. Bi, welcome to China
Li Siwen smiled and said nothing, turned around and walked towards the guild hall, while Chang Hai followed behind him excitedly.
After entering the guild hall, two women in kimonos walked towards them. They were small and exquisite, with exquisite makeup. They bowed to Li Siwen and Chang Hai politely. It was a typical Japanese etiquette. Li Siwen behaved very calmly, but Chang Hai looked very calm.
I was a little nervous. After all, when I went to eat out in a big hotel before, I wasn't so polite.
A few minutes later, the service staff took them into the private room. The tatami-style Japanese style was eye-catching. Of course, what was more eye-catching than the decoration was the beautiful woman serving the leaders.
Li Siwen glanced at it and found that not only Luo Shi and Xu Gaoming had arrived today, but also a middle-aged man he had met at Dong Jiacheng's banquet, who should be the leader of Guangdong Province, and the other two were Bi
Taguan and Chen Zirong.
Chen Zirong is relatively young, only thirty-four or five years old, while Bi Tianchuan looks a bit older, with a lot of gray hair, but his eyes are very shrewd.
Five people sat around a rectangular dining table, with a beautiful kimono-clad beauty kneeling beside them. They respectfully served food, poured wine, and even fed them themselves.
However, although the scene seemed very ambiguous, the leaders were still relatively reserved and did not do anything extraordinary.
"Mr. Li, take a seat quickly." Xu Gaoming finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Li Siwen. He was really worried that the other party wouldn't come.
Li Siwen was not polite, took off his shoes and sat over. Although Chang Hai was a little confused when he saw this action, he had no chance to ask and could only follow the example.
After the two of them took their seats, a beautiful woman in kimono soon sat next to them. She set the tableware and served tea, and the service was meticulous.
"Mr. Li, let me introduce to you. This is Comrade Tao Zhihuai, the top secretary in Eastern Guangdong Province." Xu Gaoming introduced the leader first, and Li Siwen stood up first and extended his hand politely: "Hello, Secretary Tao."
"Mr. Li, hello." Secretary Tao also stood up politely and shook Li Siwen's hand, then sat back down, acting very calmly.
"This is Mr. Bi Tianchuan, the boss of Hong Kong Xia Group, and a very close international friend of our province." Xu Gaoming's introduction was very skillful. It not only elevated Bi Tianchuan's identity, but also reminded Li Siwen to be more polite.
Li Siwen knew what Xu Gaoming meant, so he reached out his hand and said, "Hello, Mr. Bi."
Li Siwen raised his hands in the air, waiting for Bi Tianchuan's response. However, what he didn't expect was that Bi Tianchuan just smiled and said softly: "Sorry, Mr. Li, we Japanese people don't like the etiquette of shaking hands."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere at the scene couldn't help but become a little tense. Although Bi Tianchuan's tone was very polite and his refusal was justified, but this was an occasion in China, so was it polite to refuse to shake hands?
Obviously, Bi Tianchuan gave Li Siwen a knife as soon as they met, and it was a gentle blow.
Seeing this scene, Xu Gaoming quickly smoothed things over and said, "Mr. Li, I didn't introduce you clearly just now. Mr. Bi is a Japanese-Chinese. Their country's etiquette is different from ours, so there is no need to shake this hand."
Xu Gaoming forced himself to explain, but it was too forced. Others looked at Li Siwen with interest, feeling that this mute would definitely suffer from him.
Sure enough, Li Siwen retracted his hand in cooperation. Just when everyone thought he was about to sit down, they heard him say: "I'm sorry, Mr. Bi, I forgot that you are from Japan. According to the etiquette of you Japanese people, when we meet, we should
It's only right to bow."
After Li Siwen finished speaking, he started to wait.
Seeing this situation, Bi Tianchuan couldn't refuse. He could only stand up and said: "Mr. Li is right. Bowing is indeed popular in our country, but this bowing ceremony is also particular. Young people must first salute to the elders.
, and you have to bow deeply. As for the elder to return the bow, it only needs fifteen degrees. Mr. Li, please go first!"
Xu Gaoming sighed secretly, feeling that Li Siwen had tricked him into it. Wouldn't it be even more embarrassing if he gave Bi Tianchuan a big gift now?
However, he did not expect that Li Siwen actually smiled faintly and refused directly: "I'm sorry, Mr. Bi, just like Japanese people don't like to shake hands, Chinese people also don't like to bow because their bones are too hard. So I'm sorry, I can only say
Mr. Bi gave a fist-cup salute, which is also a sign of respect for culture."
Li Siwen said, clasped his hands and said in a rainbow tone: "Mr. Bi, welcome to China."
Neither humble nor arrogant, and full of momentum, these words Li Siwen said were so exciting that Xu Gaoming, Luo Shi and others couldn't help but straighten their backs.
Looking at Bi Tianchuan again, there was obvious anger in his eyes, but he couldn't get angry at all in this situation, especially because there was something in Li Siwen's words that made him unable to refuse the other party's etiquette. He didn't want to be labeled as disrespecting culture.
Besides, the Japanese country is famous for its etiquette.
After thinking about it, he could only bite the bullet and bow to Li Siwen, but the bow was really uncomfortable. After all, he had the upper hand at the beginning, but now it seems that Li Siwen got an advantage, because he exchanged a fist for a bow from Huaxia
From my perspective, that’s a lot of money.
Bi Tianchuan originally intended to use Japanese culture to humiliate Li Siwen, but now he has become a laughing stock. However, the occasion was special, so he could only sit back angrily.
Seeing this scene, Xu Gaoming felt secretly happy, but he still gave Li Siwen a wink, telling him to restrain himself, and then introduced Chen Zirong. When Li Siwen reached out to Chen Zirong, the other party became more understanding and interacted with him.
Li Siwen shook it quickly.
After a brief exchange, Li Siwen sat back, and Xu Gaoming motioned for everyone to eat and drink, and find a topic from time to time.
During the chat, Secretary Tao, headed by Secretary Tao, kept praising Kang Jia. Li Siwen could tell that several leaders attached great importance to Kang Jia, including Xu Gaoming from Luo City.
As for the reasons, it was also made very clear in the chat. First, Konka is a company in eastern Guangdong Province. Second, Konka was listed in Pengcheng last year. Third, Konka is planning to move the color TV production line from Yangcheng to Pengcheng. This will make it very difficult.
It’s easy to understand why Xu Gaoming attaches so much importance to this dinner.
To put it simply, the biological son of the eastern Guangdong Province comes to Pengcheng, and he will definitely be the key support target of Pengcheng in the future.
After drinking for three rounds, the chat became more and more serious. Xu Gaoming wiped his chin, looked at Li Siwen and said, "Mr. Li, you are in the electronics business. You should know more about Konka's situation than I do, right?"
Li Siwen was a little speechless. He was not deaf. Most of the conversation just now was about Kang Jia. How could he not understand? This was obviously another hint to him about the importance of Kang Jia.
"How could I not understand such an excellent company as Konka?" Li Siwen replied hypocritically.
