Chapter 3566: The Agreement Cannot Be Abolished
Thank you Washington!
Lin Feng's words of thanks to Washington completely pissed off Secretary of State Rice.
"Boss, what's wrong?" Lin Chiling asked.
Ivanka, who was standing by, was also surprised. She seemed to have heard Rice's name. Secretary of State Rice, this hard-line woman, is the most powerful black woman in American history and a role model and idol for many strong women. Of course, it seems that all strong women thrive in their careers, but have difficulty finding love.
"Nothing, Secretary of State Rice of the United States told me not to interfere in matters related to Libya anymore!" Lin Feng said in a flat voice.
Lin Chiling and Ivanka were both shocked. Judging from the tone and the attitude of the two people talking just now, this is probably not just an exchange, but a warning. It may even be a little bit more excessive.
"Haha, okay, let's not talk about this. Ivanka, now Gaddafi is cooperating with African countries. The domestic labor resources are extremely rich, and the price of Africans is also extremely low. After you return to China this time, start working in Libya as soon as possible. However, although Africans are strong and have good physical strength, there may be various physical diseases among these people. You must be mentally prepared for this. All relevant physical examinations and medical services must be in place.
Also, when arranging work, it must be as simple and clear as possible." Lin Feng urged.
Ivanka wrote it down in a notebook. She has never managed the employment of labor. There are special departments and special project managers in the company to be responsible for this. However, this time the employment is mainly African laborers. Not only she, but also those project managers may have no experience in this regard. Lin Feng has been in Africa for so long and has a sufficient understanding of Africa. These words are all words of experience, and they are golden advice that can help the company avoid big troubles in the future.
Lin Feng chattered about some African customs and told Ivanka all his knowledge of Africa, to avoid Ivanka entering Libya, because of ethnic habits and customs, causing the company to take too much risk, or even causing some unnecessary troubles, which would affect the company's image, interests in Libya and international reputation.
"Well, I've written it down. I will go to Libya in person with the project manager and communicate more with Saif." Ivanka nodded.
"Well, regarding our security issues in Libya, 'Wolf Fang' will be responsible. I don't trust the local police in Libya." Lin Feng ordered.
Ivanka felt relieved. If 'Wolf Fang' was in charge, she would be relieved. The reputation of 'Wolf Fang' in the industry is beyond reproach, not to mention that it is Lin Feng's company, which is enough to make her feel at ease.
"Lin, you don't have to worry about my side. I think you should pay more attention to Rice. It's better to talk to Rice again. I once heard my father say that he had dealt with Rice several times. This woman is not easy to mess with. She is very strong and will definitely do what she wants to do. If you offend her like this, I'm afraid she won't let you go." Ivanka said worriedly.
Lin Feng nodded.
"I expected that Rice is not easy to mess with. But I just found out that she is so domineering. It is not impossible to reconcile now, but the price I have to pay is too high. Forget it, I won't care about her for the time being. Anyway, we will deal with it as it comes. We will do whatever we have to do!" Lin Feng said in a deep voice.
Ivanka frowned.
"Do you want my father to introduce you to someone so that you can meet and talk?" Ivanka said.
Lin Feng shook his head. The conflict between him and Rice is about Libya, and he will never give in on this issue.
So, it doesn't really matter whether the two sides talk or not. So there was no need to bother Donald to act as a bridge in the middle, otherwise he might be ridiculed by Rice. I was not in the mood to be abused.
Then, the plane flew directly to Beijing, sent Ivanka to the car, and then returned to Shanghai.
"Boss, are you going to the company?" Lin Chiling asked.
Lin Feng thought about it and shook his head. Now that the "Second World" is under the leadership of Fengjian Huilisha, the company is steadily rising. He no longer needs to go to the company to hang around, lest if he goes too much, it will make Fengjian Huilisha's work difficult. Therefore, now except for the quarterly, half-year and year-end meetings, Lin Feng generally does not go there. He truly exercises his duties as the chairman and leaves everything to the company.
However, he does not go to the company, but he still needs a reception room. It is not suitable at home. Lin Feng hates to bring business home, let alone receive business guests at home.
"Boss, what are you looking at?" Lin Chiling asked curiously, looking at Lin Feng who kept looking around.
"Well, you guys tell me, where should I build another office building?" Lin Feng pinched his chin and said.
Build another office building? Lin Chiling, Natalie and Melissa were all surprised. Isn't this 'Century Light' already there? Why is there still construction! That's too wasteful. "It's a bit of a waste. But now the real estate market is heating up, and Shanghai is the financial capital of China. The land in the future will only rise and not fall. Even if I or the government wants it to lower the price, it's wishful thinking. So I'm thinking about building an office building where financial giants gather. Let all high-tech industries and Fortune 500 companies set up offices in it. In this way, everyone's daily business dealings will be much more convenient." Lin Feng said with a smile.
Lin Chiling and the other two's eyes lit up. Lin Feng's idea sounded a bit far-fetched. It was very difficult to let the world's top 500 companies rent office buildings here. After all, why would they have to rent office buildings here? However, most of the world's top 500 companies have businesses in China, and have gradually increased their investment in China in recent years. There are also many business dealings between each other. If they are integrated together, it is indeed a resource conservation in a sense.
"In this world, different people have different circles. As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. In Shanghai, there are many such high-end communities, where some elites live. Their annual salary exceeds one million yuan, and they live an absolutely petty bourgeoisie life in any country. In recent years, because the high-end residential communities are a bit far from their office locations, and although Shanghai's transportation is developed, there are too many vehicles, and they spend a lot of time on the road. So, what I want to build is an office and commercial high-end residential building that integrates office and high-end accommodation." Lin Feng said with a smile.
"Boss, from a psychological point of view, your plan of integrating office and high-end residential area is indeed very exciting, but it is somewhat suspected of despising the poor and loving the rich, and promoting luxury consumption. And you are artificially dividing people into groups." Natalie frowned and said.
"Haha, people are never born equal. Everything in this world has long been destined to have circles and gaps between people. Whether I do it or not, it exists. And I am just a businessman, not a saint, I am not 'Gandhi', not 'Confucius', I am just a businessman!" Lin Feng looked at Natalie, who was a little cynical, and smiled lightly.
Natalie pouted. Although she was a little cynical, she would not devote herself to this and die for it. She was just reminding Lin Feng as a secretary. If Lin Feng was unwilling, she would not force him to do it, and would not learn from the loyal ministers of the feudal dynasties in the past in China to die for it. She is just a little woman!
"Of course, this is just a sudden thought. Whether it can be realized in the end, we still need to study it carefully and do some investigation. Okay, no more talk, let's find a place to eat." Lin Feng waved his hand and stopped thinking about it.
The three women shrugged. Anyway, Lin Feng has the final say on this matter. Any opinions they express are at most for reference. Instead of thinking about these troubles, it is better to focus on what kind of food to eat later.
"By the way, boss, your 'fast food restaurant' is going to reopen!" Lin Chiling looked at the schedule, "It will be officially operated globally on Christmas this year. You have to go to the Beijing headquarters to cut the ribbon!"
Lin Feng nodded. After the reopening this time, Chinese food will be promoted. Of course, the second is the food that can be made quickly in Chinese food. At the same time, there are also high-end gourmet restaurants that will serve Chinese gourmet meals. This will be a milestone in Lin Feng's 'food kingdom'.
In the world, only France can be compared with China in terms of food, but now France is ranked first in the world's famous national banquets. Chinese cuisine, on the other hand, is at the very low end. Therefore, Lin Feng wants to promote Chinese cuisine, and at the same time promote his own games, mobile phones, computers, etc.
Eating, drinking and having fun are the most important things for people. Lin Feng is not only satisfied with having fun, eating and drinking are also the key points.
"Oh, by the way, Christmas, I'm going to Detroit for Christmas!" Lin Feng suddenly slapped his forehead.
Going to Detroit? The girls were all stunned. Why would Lin Feng go to Detroit for Christmas? This is too weird.
"Hehe, have you forgotten that when KFC and McDonald's joined forces to deal with fast food restaurants, I was named a "civilian hero". At that time, I promised an elderly couple to go to Detroit to spend Christmas with them. "Lin Feng said with a smile.
The girls suddenly realized that with Lin Feng's reminder, they just remembered this matter. It's just that they have chosen to forget about this matter, and they didn't take it too seriously, but they didn't expect Lin Feng to still remember it.
"Boss, are you really going to Detroit for Christmas? "Lin Chiling asked curiously.
Detroit, known as the Motor City, is the largest city in Michigan, USA. Founded by French fur traders in 1701, it is an important port city located in the northeastern United States, south of Windsor, Canada, along the Detroit River, the world's traditional automobile center and the music capital.
However, these beautiful-sounding titles are gradually moving away from Detroit. Due to the excessive demands of the local union in Detroit, all automobile companies in Detroit must pay workers no less than $75 per hour, and also require a large number of various insurances, which has led to a sharp increase in the costs of many automobile companies.
Before this, the automobile industry was booming. When the auto industry was developing, auto companies could still afford it. But recently, with the decline of the auto industry, the rise of the Japanese auto industry and the market domination, as well as the underestimation of the Chinese market, many auto companies began to suffer losses. Auto companies under losses can no longer afford such high wages for workers, and eventually had to choose to move out of Detroit.
This directly led to a sharp decline in Detroit's economy. The departure of auto companies took away a lot of tax revenue, and eventually led to the inevitable decline of the city of Detroit. Thieves are rampant, and robbery crimes are emerging in an endless stream, making this once beautiful city notorious.
It is really not a good choice for Lin Feng to go to Detroit for Christmas at this time!
"Since I have already agreed, I will definitely go. A man cannot stand without credibility, especially for me, credibility is the foundation of standing. I promised, so I will definitely go." Lin Feng said seriously.
"Well, boss, I think you should go too. This is very good for your reputation in the United States. If you go there at this time, it not only represents your keeping your promise, but also represents your care for people in trouble. This is a very important virtue for Americans." Natalie also supported Lin Feng to go.
"But is it in time?" Melissa frowned.
It's also Christmas, and you have to cut the ribbon and go to dinner at the same time. This time is not enough!
"Well, it's in time. The ribbon cutting is in the morning Beijing time, and the dinner is in the evening American time. Counting the 13-hour time difference between them, it's in time!" Lin Chiling calculated and sighed. If it's not in time, it will be really troublesome.
"Haha, that's good. Okay, no more words, eat. The Hunan cuisine here is good!" Lin Feng said with a smile.
Hunan cuisine is a local flavor cuisine with a long history in China. It is one of the eight major cuisines of the Han nationality's food culture. The taste is mainly spicy, and it is indeed difficult for people who cannot eat spicy food. But for people who like spicy food, it is delicious. The "fast food restaurant" that is back on the road will also launch corresponding Hunan-style fast food.
"By the way, boss, the 25th of this month is Feifei's birthday. She is in the United States filming "Infinite Terror". Should we go there, or what?" Lin Chiling suddenly asked.
Lin Feng also exclaimed. Almost, almost forgot. This is Liu Yifei's first birthday since the two of them got together, and it can't be missed. If you miss it, it will be terrible.
"Go, of course I have to go. Today is the 20th, and the time will be up in five days. I have to go." Lin Feng sighed and sighed that Lin Chiling reminded him well, otherwise it would be very troublesome if he forgot. For women, the most important things are birthdays and weddings. If you miss it, it will be fatal! (To be continued... If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly tickets in the ◤First Release◢.
