Chapter 297 Midnight Hesitation and Business Counselor's Request

At noon, Li Xiaofan invited his colleagues from Yifan Industry and Trade to have a sumptuous lunch at the Shipu Seafood Restaurant by the Moon Lake.

After listening to the work reports of his colleagues in the afternoon, he personally delivered an "important speech" to encourage everyone. Wu Xiumei took Li Xiaofan to Mingzhou Junhua Architectural Decoration Co., Ltd. and met the company's boss Wen Junhua and another person from Taiwan. Partner Hu Zhiqing.

When Li Xiaofan said that he wanted to turn the factory building on eight acres of land he had just acquired into an industrial-style LOFT office, Wen Junhua and Hu Zhiqing of Mingzhou Junhua Architectural Decoration Co., Ltd. were shocked: There is such an avant-garde thinking in Mingzhou. Young bosses exist!

Later, they were relieved when they heard that Li Xiaofan also had a company in Singapore. He was indeed a man who had seen the world!

Hu Zhiqing said: "Director Li, when I was in Taiwan, I did many industrial-style LOFT projects, but your project may be the first one in Mingzhou. We can make a preliminary design plan for you to review first. Director Li, to be honest with you, we are also looking for good architectural decoration design cases and strive to make it a landmark project. Your avant-garde design ideas are very consistent with our company's philosophy, and our company will definitely go all out! If this project is done well, it will definitely be a win-win situation for both of us..."

"That's great. Please trouble your company to make a preliminary design plan first!"

While they were chatting, Li Xiaofan's cell phone suddenly rang, and the caller ID showed an unfamiliar Singapore landline number.

Li Xiaofan picked up the phone and asked, "Hello, who is this?"

A young man's voice came over the phone, with a standard Beijing accent: "Hello, is this Mr. Li Xiaofan from Yahoo Singapore?"

"Yes, I am Li Xiaofan. Excuse me, who are you?"

"Hello, Director Li, let me introduce myself. I am Zhao Zhituan, the third secretary of the Economic and Commercial Counselor's Office of the Chinese Embassy in Singapore. Your phone number was given to me by Ren Xiaoying, the financial reporter at the Xinhua News Agency's Singapore reporter station..."

Li Xiaofan secretly wondered, why is the Commercial Counselor's Office of the embassy looking for him?

"Hi, Secretary Zhao, what can I do for you?"

"Mr. Li, that's what happened. Ren Xiaoying and the Xinhua News Agency's Singapore reporter station recently wrote an internal reference about the Yahoo Singapore station project you invested in and successfully helped Singapore's small and medium-sized enterprises go overseas with the support of the Singapore government. They After the internal reference was approved by domestic leaders, it was transferred to the Economic and Commercial Counselor's Office of our Singapore Embassy today. We, Counselor Qi, would like to ask, when are you free? Counselor Qi would like to meet and chat with you. "

Oh, now Li Xiaofan understands a little bit. Our embassies abroad are divided into several lines. For example, the Economic and Commercial Counselor's Office belongs to the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation. Many commercial counselors in embassies abroad are served by department-level leaders of the foreign trade and economic affairs departments of various provinces in the mainland. Commercial Counselors The latter represents the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation.

It seems that Ren Xiaoying’s internal reference has attracted the attention of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation of my country!

"Secretary Zhao, I'm sorry. I've been on a business trip in China in the past few days. I won't be able to come back to Singapore until the day after tomorrow. Or, after I come back to Singapore, can I personally visit the leaders of your Commercial Counselor's Office?"

"Oh, that's it, no problem. Mr. Li, the number I'm dialing now is my office landline. Then we'll contact you when you come back to Singapore!"

"Okay, I'll hang up first."

After making the call, after coming out of Mingzhou Junhua Architectural Decoration Co., Ltd., Li Xiaofan asked Wu Xiumei to take a taxi home, and he drove the Cherokee directly back to his hometown in Ningdong.

"Mr. Li, do you have a driver's license and can you drive?" Wu Xiumei asked worriedly when handing the car to Li Xiaofan.

"I haven't taken the driver's license test yet, but Xiumei, don't worry, I'm an experienced driver!" Li Xiaofan laughed.

After returning to Ningdong in the evening, Li Xiaofan did not let his aunt cook, but directly invited his uncle and aunt to have dinner at the Ningdong International Hotel, the most upscale hotel in Ningdong County. My cousin Tang Qianqian was admitted to the Chinese Department of Fudan University in Shanghai with excellent results this summer and is currently studying in Shanghai.

The Chinese dining room on the 18th floor of the top floor of Ningdong International Hotel was reserved by Li Xiaofan for Wu Xiumei.

Li Xiaofan also invited his old classmates Wu Xiuli and Lin Zhiyong to dinner today.

In the middle, Li Xiaofan raised his glass to Wu Xiuli and said, "Dear Section Chief Wu, come and give you a toast. Congratulations on your promotion!"

"Haha, Xiaofan, can you stop shouting like that? It makes my skin crawl all over!"

Wu Xiuli stood up and raised her glass: "Xiaofan, it's my turn to toast you with this glass of wine. It's all thanks to you!"

The last time the city leaders visited the bonded zone for investigation, Li Xiaofan asked Wu Xiumei to praise Wu Xiuli, so that the leaders of the Municipal Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Bureau nearby would remember that there was a capable girl named Wu Xiuli in the Ningdong County Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Bureau.

At the beginning of this month, Wu Xiuli was promoted to deputy section chief of the Foreign Trade Section of Ningdong County Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Bureau.

Lin Zhiyong has recently been busy in the business of reselling old furniture in Mingzhou and Shanghai. In the past few months, he has made a lot of money. He made a lot of money with the 10,000 yuan principal that Li Xiaofan gave him. Now he is worth ten thousand yuan. It’s tens of thousands of yuan. He recently rented warehouses in Ningdong County and the suburbs of Minhang, Shanghai, and his business is gradually expanding.

Li Xiaofan was also very happy to see the two old classmates developing well.

After returning home after dinner, Li Xiaofan took out 100,000 yuan in cash from his bag and gave it to his uncle and aunt. They were shocked and refused to take it. Later, the two of them finally accepted it, saying that they would save it for Li Xiaofan to find a wife for later...

The next morning, Li Xiaofan took a flight from Mingzhou Lishe Airport to Shanghai. After arriving at Hongqiao Airport, he saw that he still had some time, so he took the time to go to Wujiaochang to visit his cousin Tang Qianqian, who was studying at Fudan University.

At that time, there was a popular saying in Shanghai: Eat at Tongji, play at Fudan, live at Jiaotong University, and love at China Normal University!

After Li Xiaofan entered the Fudan campus, he was filled with various sports venues, which is worthy of being called "playing in Fudan".

After some inquiries, he found his cousin Tang Qianqian who was playing basketball with a group of girls on a basketball court.

"Brother, why are you here?" Tang Qianqian was surprised to see Li Xiaofan suddenly appear outside the venue.

The ladies on the side cheered: "Wow, Qianqian, you actually have such a handsome brother! Is he your brother or a cousin..."

Tang Qianqian laughed and said, "I hate it! This is my brother!"

Li Xiaofan briefly chatted with Tang Qianqian, gave her 5,000 yuan of pocket money, and took a Singapore Airlines flight back to Singapore in the afternoon.

He did not go to Hangzhou to visit Tang Xinyi when he returned to China this time. Firstly, he was pressed for time, and secondly, because of his relationship with Guo Hanyue, he seemed a little apologetic...

It was almost eleven o'clock in the evening when Li Xiaofan returned to the terraced house dormitory.

It was quiet inside, both girls turned off the lights and went to sleep.

After taking a shower, Li Xiaofan went up to the second floor and passed Guo Hanyue's room, he hesitated...
