Chapter 626

At 10:53, United Airlines Flight 0325 arrived at O'Hare International Airport on time.

Chicago, the third most populous city in the United States, the second largest commercial center in the United States, also has the largest futures market in the United States, and is a famous international financial center. It warmly welcomes Feng Yiping's arrival with a scorching heat.

Today's temperature is as high as 36 degrees Celsius!

Thinking of having to wear a formal suit on such a day, Feng Yiping felt quite depressed. How can a woman's dress reveal so much, and a man's formal suit must be tightly wrapped, which is unscientific!

Mike, who came to pick up the plane, thoughtfully brought Huang Jingping a sun umbrella, and led them to a black extended Rolls-Royce Phantom. The black driver in uniform and hat had already opened the door. wait.

Downstairs at the NAVTEQ headquarters, President Collins accompanied Jin Ling and Hong Haoran to warmly welcome Feng Yiping.

He couldn't help but be enthusiastic. This time, most of the proceeds from Jiaqiang's private placement went into the pockets of major shareholders like them.

"Welcome, Feng," said a big white man with a hooked nose and a firm handshake.

"Nice to meet you," Feng Yiping also said with a smile.

When shaking hands with Jin Ling, he smiled and asked in a low voice, "Didn't you say it's best to be quiet, why are you making such a big noise?"

The map industry is always a relatively sensitive field.

"They want to boost morale and confidence," Jin Ling said while looking at the smiling NAVTEQ executives.

I see!

For the company's executives with many shareholders, in many cases, their biggest and deadliest opponents and enemies are often not competitors, but the shareholders of the company.

Last year and the year before that, the company lost hundreds of millions of dollars. Collins probably felt uncomfortable sitting in the position of president.

Fortunately, he is not having a good time, otherwise he would not have reached an agreement so quickly.

The press conference hall was crowded with people, and Collins walked ahead vigorously and introduced today's guests to Feng Yiping.

However, seeing the first place, Feng Yiping was a little confused. Is this him? This is him!

"Feng, let me introduce you. This is the state senator, Mr. ***." Sure enough, what Collins said was the name Feng Yiping was familiar with.

Feng Yiping is not familiar with his resume, did he start his fortune here? "Hello, Feng," Comrade Ao Hei, how can you have the slightest arrogance at this time? Fan, who seemed very gentle and humble, said, "Your investment in our state is welcome,"

"Nice to meet you, Mr. ***," Feng Yiping held Xiao Ao Hei, who was still in his infancy, and really wanted to say, "Comrade, I am very optimistic about you!"

"I wonder why your frontier magazine, in the middle of last year, concluded that President Bush would win?"

The 2000 U.S. presidential election was a lively event for outsiders, but it was a rich and exciting educational lesson for those who are interested in "serving more people" like Comrade O'Hai Xiao.

Yo, you also read my magazine!

"This conclusion is of course based on a large number of facts," Feng Yiping said, "In addition, there is an ancient poem in our country, to the effect that outsiders are easier to see the status quo than those who are inside. For example, when you are a lawyer, you must know the situation better than your client,”

"That's right, it makes sense," Comrade O'Hei nodded. "I pay close attention to the Foreword Magazine, especially the first issue of each year."

The preface magazine, the first issue of the new year, in addition to the summary of the past year, is also the outlook for the new year. Since its establishment, the outlook written in several outlooks is quite reliable.

"I'm honored!" I hope you will continue to do so when you enter the White House in the future, "Can we exchange business cards?"

Collins was waiting to introduce the next guest to him. Seeing Feng Yiping and *** Barabara talking non-stop, I really wanted to remind him that he was only a state senator, not a federal senator.

Moreover, he was also a state senator who challenged the state's senior federal representative Bobby Rush for a seat in the federal representative last year, but was defeated.

Who would have thought that this guy would be the first black president of the United States in the future?

"Feng, this is Mr. Brier, the chairman of GARMIN," Collins then introduced to Feng Yiping.

Jia Ming, the giant that produces GPS navigators, he knows. In fact, it can be regarded as a company on the other side of the strait. However, after meeting Comrade Ohei, it is really difficult for him to arouse too much interest now.

Jin Ling was very strange. He felt that when Collins was giving an impassioned speech on the stage, Feng Yiping's attention seemed to be focused on the black state senator on the other side.

Why? She doesn't understand.

"It's your turn to go on stage," she reminded Feng Yiping with a smile while applauding.

"Guests, colleagues, hello, everyone," he had given speeches in front of tricky business school students, and now such a speech was nothing to him.

"I'm so excited to be in this great city of Chicago! Even though it's my first time here, I've been enjoying what Chicago has to offer.

I will never forget that it was 115 years ago that due to the struggle of hundreds of thousands of workers in Chicago, May Day came into being, and I only had one more day off every year. "

As for how to close the relationship with the audience, Feng Yiping's current technology can be said to be proficient.

Sure enough, Comrade O'Hei was also applauding while laughing.

"I also admire the strength and outstanding work ability of Chicagoans. Thanks to everyone's efforts, our city, which has been reborn from the ashes, is now the hometown of skyscrapers and the World Architecture Art Fair,"

Five years after hundreds of thousands of workers in Chicago went on strike and fought for the right to an eight-hour working day, a fire almost burned the whole of Chicago to nothing.

"I believe that the senior executives of Boeing who have just moved their headquarters to this city will also agree with my statement,"

These words ushered in the second wave of applause for him.

This year, the world's aviation giant Boeing suddenly announced that it would move its headquarters out of Seattle, which has been the headquarters of the company since its establishment. Faced with many candidate cities, in mid-May, Boeing finally determined that Chicago would be the location for its new headquarters. station.

This is naturally a major loss for Seattle, but also something that Chicagoans are very proud of.

"NAVTEQ is also a great company. The founder of the company is also the pioneer of electronic maps. Under their leadership, after more than ten years of development, it has become the world's largest electronic map content provider. I am very honored to be part of this big family.

At the same time, I am happy to work with my new colleagues to continue to promote the revolution in the field of maps and send paper maps into history! "

"I believe that the future must be dominated by electronic maps, and I also firmly believe that with the joint efforts of all of us, future electronic maps can not only tell us where, but also provide us with more and more comprehensive local searches, extending come up with more and more what,"

"I also hope that in the near future, our electronic map will be built into an information interaction platform that can serve daily life and various needs!"

Laymen may not understand his words, but those NAVTEQ employees must understand.

Although Collins always emphasized Feng Yiping's identity as a young scholar when he introduced Feng Yiping to everyone, and only they knew Jiaqiang's leadership and understanding of the electronic map industry, but NAVTEQ employees who did not understand the situation, more, They just treat him as a rich layman.

Still a rich man from a country that doesn't get along very well with his own country.

It wasn't until they heard what he said that everyone realized, is this still a layman? Definitely an expert in strategy, okay?

Jin Ling looked at Feng Yiping who was thanking on the stage, and asked Huang Jingping with a smile, "Is there anything he doesn't understand, is there anything he can't do?"

"Yes, he said," Huang Jingping thought for a while, and said seriously, "He can't have children,"

"Pfft," Jin Ling just laughed out loud, and knew something was wrong, on this occasion.

Sure enough, a few people turned their heads at the side, and she could only stop laughing very hard, feeling so sad!

Feng Yiping, who came over to exchange pleasantries with a group of people, was puzzled to see Jin Ling clenched her cheeks, her face flushed, as if she was about to cry, is she so happy?
