Starting from the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, it was not until August 12th that Pakistan’s ambassador Norman came to the door. Xiao Qi really admired their composure.
Of course, the Pakistani brothers are not really calm, but they have been busy making preparations these days.
When I went to Yu Chengsheng's office that day, he mentioned this and said that he admired Xiao Qi's heart. We should take more care of brothers like this who helped us. Don't just think about making money. Go wherever the expenses are low.
.
Then Niu Ruzheng also called and asked Xiao Qi about the details of opening a parts factory in Pakistan.
When he heard about the arrangements for production, employment, salary, etc., Niu Ruzheng also praised Xiao Qi and then hung up the phone.
He didn't say anything to take care of me, but it was his attitude when he called me.
Pakistan may not necessarily know the relationship between Xiao Qi, Niu Ruzheng and Yu Chengsheng, but they are one of the few hardcore allies of China, and they can directly communicate with No. 1 and Boss Bian.
With the top people nodding, Niu Ruzheng and Yu Chengsheng naturally called Xiao Qi to express that they were happy to see this cooperation at the national level.
Xiao Qi was not unhappy about finding someone from Pakistan.
When they encounter such a big pie, it's strange that they don't want to grab it tightly.
Moreover, they were familiar with China's national conditions and knew that officials here were more important than businessmen, so they immediately found the top ones.
From the official point of view, there is no big reason to pressure Xiao Qi. Xiao Qi also knows that Pakistan does not want to rely on the official to exert pressure. It is just to influence Xiao Qi through them. It means don't talk about it. We are serious.
.
After the news was spread here, the Pakistani ambassador Norman officially paid a visit.
Xiao Qi chose Qiao Guoer's villa as the place to meet his guests.
Even though the rich and powerful lived here, they were all shocked when they saw several cars with flags from other countries driving in and guards standing at the door.
They also knew before that this villa was the property of Qiao Guoer, the owner of Kiwi Fruit. They also knew that Qiao Guoer had a profound background and that the people behind him were great. But they did not expect that it would be related to the embassy.
Although it doesn’t look like a big country based on the national flag, when an embassy car comes out, and looking at the posture, it’s very likely that the ambassador is personally visiting, that’s awesome!
"Hello, Ambassador Norman!"
"Hello, Mr. Qi!"
In the living room, after the two people greeted each other warmly, they sat down separately.
Norman is a middle-aged man in his fifties with typical Punjabi appearance. The smile on his face is bright and he looks very sincere.
The language of his greeting was Chinese, and he was very proficient in it, letting Xiao Qi know that he must be proficient in Chinese.
Sure enough, Norman's next words were also in Chinese: "Originally on the night of the 8th, after I learned the news, I wanted to come to Qi Shao as soon as possible. But I calmed down and thought about it, it was too hasty.
.Except for verbal gratitude and commitment, I don’t have any practical sincerity to express to you, our beloved Chinese friend!
So I have been making some practical preparations these days. Let me cooperate with Qishao in all your investment matters in Pakistan. As for your choice of factory location, we have also provided you with several good places. Come and take a look.
…Of course. If you don’t agree, you can choose any place you like.”
Norman handed a document to Xiao Qi.
As the boy watched, Norman explained: "The first place is in Islamabad, which is 20 kilometers south of the outskirts of our capital. The transportation here is very convenient. It has complete facilities. It will be very fast to establish a factory and recruit people.
The quality of workers is also generally higher.
The second place is Multan, located in the center. It has a large population, rich resources, better climate conditions than Islamabad, and there are two military districts around it, so there is no problem in terms of security.
The third place is Gilgit, which is closest to China. Its biggest advantage is that it can directly connect the railway to Xinjiang, China. It can transport parts to Chengdu through the railway, which can save a lot of costs, but the safety here
It's a bit bad, but if you decide to come here, we will specially move two divisions to station around to ensure that there is no interference."
Xiao Qi smiled when he heard this, "Ambassador Norman, you have repeatedly stressed the issue of security. Aren't you afraid that I might want to quit?"
"Haha, Mr. Qi, since you chose our Pakistan, you should know the difficulties we face." Norman smiled slightly, with a hint of bitterness: "Pakistan is so poor and weak that Afghanistan's
People are restless, and India is constantly challenging us. Without China’s help, we would simply be overwhelmed!”
He spoke very candidly, and he also figured out Xiao Qi's mentality very accurately.
Pakistan has had a lot of troubles in recent years.
After the former Afghan regime was eliminated by the United States, a series of resistance groups emerged one after another. They only made trouble in Afghanistan. However, when they were suppressed by the US military, they immediately fled to neighboring Pakistan to escape. Incidentally, they also made Pakistan uneasy.
.
Not to mention India, Pakistan and India, like Palestine and Israel, are natural enemies, and conflicts will break out from time to time.
That was not a playful conflict like in Thailand, but a real conflict between aircraft, missiles and troops!
So in a country like this, you have no choice but to think about it.
"So, where do you Pakistan most want our parts factories to be opened?" Xiao Qi replied without asking.
"If we were to suggest it, of course it would be near the capital, Islamabad." Norman said eloquently: "The security there is the best in our country, and the various resource allocations are also the best. We also hope to take this opportunity to
The capital area is built to be more prosperous and wealthy, solving the poor lives of the surrounding people.
According to our calculations, there are three parts factories that you plan to build this time, namely LCD screen factory, touch screen factory and tempered glass factory. Calculated based on the production capacity of 300 million pieces each, including material preparation, production and packaging.
Wait, each factory can accommodate about 90,000 people on average.
270,000 workers can at least affect the lives of 1 million people in their families. And the consumption of these 1 million people can even stimulate the employment of 5 million people. In addition, there is the procurement of raw materials, the promotion of the transportation industry, etc.
, we expect to be able to provide employment for 8 million people, which is an amazing achievement for a small country like ours!"
Xiao Qi nodded and pondered for a moment without speaking.
At this moment, he could empathize and understand that when foreign factories entered China, even though there was so much pollution and so many disadvantages, the Chinese government still gritted its teeth and introduced them.
It’s all because of being too poor!
If you can't even afford food, why do you care about other things? Isn't this hypocritical?
Norman came with the greatest sincerity and continued to talk: "Our country has decided that for the factories of Chinese brothers, factory land will be given free of charge, and water and electricity will be calculated according to residents' prices, ensuring that these factories can
Earn money in our Pakistan and everyone will help and benefit each other!”
The young man laughed when he heard this, "You don't have to save this money for them. The cost in Pakistan is already cheap enough. Do we need to take advantage of you?"
"This is a little bit of our thoughts, although not much..."
Before Norman finished speaking, Xiao Qi shook his head, "I will negotiate with them on these matters. Doing business must be like doing business. If you let them develop a habit, they will have to take every inch in the future.
It’s not good for everyone’s cooperation! Just do what I just said. As long as you keep up with the service, the money is normal operating expenses and there is no need to give them special treatment.”
Norman was silent for a long time, but still held back his words.
He knows that any manufacturer that comes to build a factory in Pakistan will take advantage of whatever it can, and would like to use everything in vain.
That is Xiao Qi. On the one hand, he gave the manufacturers a big order to make them obedient. On the other hand, he will definitely give these manufacturers subsidies like he cooperated with the Red Sea Factory, which is directly reflected in the wages of Pakistani workers.
350 US dollars a month, which is the price of many factories in China.
They moved to Pakistan, where they were paid a lot of money, and their expenses were not much less. They had to work hard and were in a foreign country. What was that for?
Xiao Qi must have given them subsidies, so they came willingly.
Therefore, the person Pakistan should be most grateful to is Xiao Qi.
They could not imagine what Xiao Qi could get from them because Pakistan had almost nothing.
The only thing that is believable is probably because Xiao Qi is from Sichuan. He is really repaying the kindness of the people of Sichuan as he said!
"I haven't finalized the list of factories here, but Pakistan can already start preparations. The infrastructure construction of the factory, the construction of water and electricity networks, the advance recruitment of workers, etc..." Xiao Qi said calmly, "But I have
One thing I want to emphasize is that I hope your country can respect my opinion."
"Master Qi, please tell me!" This was the first time Xiao Qi had expressed his opinion, and Norman's expression became serious.
"I know that every country has related households, but for this recruitment, I don't want workers from extremely poor families to account for less than 50% of the total number. Can you help make it happen?" Xiao Qi looked at him and said.
Norman thought for a moment and nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, Mr. Qi! I don't think anyone in Pakistan will refuse your request."
"Then I wish us a happy cooperation!" Xiao Qi said, extending his hand.
Norman let out a long breath in his heart, and his hands were trembling with excitement: "Qi Shao, thank you! We in Pakistan will not let you down!" (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster.
