Chapter 1138: Africa 39

After walking around with Yi Chengfen, Ling Qingyu realized how solid Yi Chengfen had been in Africa over the years. Not only Camilla praised her, but some intermediate officials were even so enthusiastic that both of them were a little bit enthusiastic. They can’t accept it. From those people’s mouths, it was said that a very serious fever had occurred in Jibbu that year, which affected a wide range of areas. Not only the slums, but also the rich areas were also affected. If it were not for Yi Chengfen then It happened to be traveling in Djibubu, and Camilla was immediately found for treatment, so Djibbu's death would be unknown.
While socializing with people all the way, the faces of both of them twitched with smiles. When Gu Sui and the Chinese aid team came in, the officials shook hands and greeted them out of courtesy. The two quickly sat down on one side and slapped their cheeks. Let the muscles relax.
After receiving Yang Zhao and the others, they only said a few words, and they left with He Li. Ling Qingyu did not ask them what they were going to do. The men brought some tired but more energetic faces, and they shined from there. In her eyes, she could feel their confidence and determination.
Men have men's battles to fight, and she has her battlefield.
In any commercial negotiation, no matter what country it is a person, there is a struggle for interests under favor, but on the premise of the same interests, favor and goodwill determine people's judgment.
After leaving the airport, she did not go to the hotel, but made an appointment with the official who sold the land to her, who has now become Djibouti in charge of foreign cooperation.
Djibouti’s political situation has been relatively stable since its independence in the 1970s, and its system has gradually improved. When Ling Qingyu asked if the contract signed by the government official stamp and the now promoted official was still valid, the official's eyes widened and he was surprised and asked, why do you have this question? This is a blasphemy against our country, but this anger was when Ling Qingyu said why you let other prospecting teams explore on my ground without even telling it, then turned into a shame and apologized again and again.
Ling Qingyu naturally wouldn't get entangled with him on this matter, and after finishing the order, he further cooperated to discuss details.
This official is Camilla’s brother-in-law. He has discussed with Camilla several times about the weird oil incident on the ground. This time Camilla came back and had a close conversation with him. The two have reached a consensus. Living in this China, he said vigorously that there must be oil below, and the contract should stipulate that no matter how much oil there is, the Chinese investment cannot be less than 500 million US dollars, otherwise, the land will be recovered for free, and the rest of the terms...
Whatever...
Ling Qingyu understood the other party’s thoughts as soon as he heard the officials’ conditions. Although she was sure that the oil fields below would not be small, the amount to be invested would not be more than five hundred and fifty billion, but out of negotiation skills, she In this article, she has always shown an attitude of unwillingness and hesitation. She has repeatedly said that now the well is no longer producing oil, and you can see that other areas do not produce oil. If there was no oil, she could have done some tourism development. , But didn't your one cut off all her back?
Officials began to make various promises, such as tax incentives, share incentives, and the proportion of workers used can be appropriately reduced. If those workers are unqualified, the Chinese can dismiss or reduce their wages at any time, and then allocate a portion of land in Djibouti for the Chinese side. The building was built, and finally a piece of the most beautiful coastline was drawn out for the Chinese (mainly Ling Qingyu) to build private villas.
Ling Qingyu smiled in her heart, but her face was still bitter. The last two agreed to meet Camilla and His Excellency the President after attending the evening banquet.
As long as the first and second in command nod their heads, plus a small request from the official, this cooperation agreement can basically be finalized.
After the talks, she went to the hotel non-stop to change clothes and then went to the venue with Yi Chengfen ahead of schedule. Before the banquet began, she had a private conversation with Camilla and the president.
At the time of the secret talk, when Yi Chengfen thought that the African people were friends of the Chinese people and Djiboub had special feelings for China (not to mention that Gibb was a French colony and is now the back garden of France), even without oil Can also do other industries, such as leather processing industry, marine biology and other excuses to help Camilla and the president lobby, Ling Qingyu reluctantly agreed to sign a total investment (not only limited to oil and the development of the land). A cooperation agreement with a clause of less than US$500 million, but in contrast, not only the benefits promised by the brother-in-law Camilla, but also the employment of workers and the use of equipment will be fully liberalized by the Chinese side. Of course, the Chinese side will ensure that even the local People who are unqualified in their jobs will also provide them with 20% of the jobs. At the same time, Djiboub will sign a mutual visa-free concession with China.
The last thing Camilla and the president promised was very refreshing, but there was some doubt that China would agree to it. It was just that Ling Qingyu's so determined expression and Yi Chengfen's affirmation put this doubt on hold.
After all, this article is also a good thing for Gibb.
Both parties were satisfied with the results of the secret talks. In order to seize the Chinese man who was willing to invest $500 million on the desert where the birds did not shit, the president directly ordered Camilla’s brother-in-law to draft an agreement, Ling Qingyu. They also very politely sent Cheng Jia and Hua Zhonghua (understanding English and French) to Camilla’s brother-in-law. They came out to the banquet in a warm and cheerful atmosphere. Cheng Jia and the others started to work at the back of the banquet hall. Hard work.
Cheng Jia said that if he knew this was the case, he should have parked the yacht in Daguang and dragged Su Hexiang together, or left Yang Zhao and He Li.
He is really a gentleman...
Even Ling Qingyu can’t compare with each other. The two women who sang white cheeks and the red cheeks cooperated perfectly. Seeing this meat digging, if there is a steady flow of oil underneath, this group of Gibbs is afraid of regret. The intestines are green.
Although these terms do not take them much advantage now, it is an international practice to divide between 37 and 70, and for such a large oil field, even with only 20% of the staff quota, it can help them solve a large number of unemployed people.
Following the welcoming guests into the banquet hall, the Mr. President who saw Gibb was actually there, Gu Sui's posture straightened up, although the other party just stood there waiting for them to meet, even though Gibb was the youngest in China Provinces are not comparable, but after all, he is the leader of an independent country. He can personally show that he is attached to him. In the future, he will receive a cordial interview from the leader when the first leader goes abroad in his resume. A matter of saving face.
Moreover, the corner of his eyes swept to Ling Qingyu, who was sitting in the corner completely ignored. Gu Sui had a bright smile. Besides, the effect of eye drops with Mr. President should be better.
"Hello, Mr. President!" Speaking fluent French, Gu Sui stretched out his hand to hold Mr. President's hand, and said with a chuckle: "I often mentioned my father about you. My father also stayed in Africa for a while."
"Oh? Your father?" Hearing Gu Sui's fluent French, the president smiled.
"My father's name is Gu Chong, and he worked in the peacekeeping force eight years ago." Gu Sui smiled more sincerely, and his voice was obviously proud.
Gu Chong was able to fly to the top not only because Minister Gu was behind, but the most important thing was the contribution he made in the peacekeeping force that year. This is why Gu Chong wanted to come to Africa this time.
The president’s face changed slightly, and his smile returned to its original shape after a twitch on his face. He smiled and said,
Really? I worked in the peacekeeping force eight years ago. I remember that the leader of the Chinese peacekeeping force was Colonel Shen, I have always had a good relationship with him." After speaking, he smiled slightly, avoided Gu Sui, and shook hands with the people in the African aid team that followed Gu Sui.
Gu Sui was taken aback, and was gently pushed by the bodyguard behind him, and with a polite smile, he stepped aside for a few steps, thinking about the meaning of the president's words.
He had just entered junior high school eight years ago. He only knew that his father had done a great job and came back. The family was very happy from top to bottom. His mother even raised his nostrils. He felt deliberate among his cousins. I am pleased, but although my father was very happy when he came back, he never said the details of the time.
Listen to what the president said, there were still people from the Shen family in the peacekeeping force at that time? But why is there no news at all?
And, what does Mr. President mean? Was Gu and Shen mistaken, or did he only recognize people from the Shen family?
Before he could think clearly, the welcoming guests led the guests to sit on the table. Because he had no free time at all, the interview time was also very tight. After shaking hands one by one, they just sat down, even greeting each other. There is no time.
Then there was a speech by the president, followed by a speech by Gu Sui, followed by a banquet performance.
Back to the seat, seeing Ling Qingyu and Yi Chengfen actually at the table including Mr. President and Camilla, and closer to Mr. President than him, Gu Sui's face turned dark, and his face suddenly showed no sign. Hi expression.
The table full of people did not have an idea. Camilla and another official at the table were discussing with Yi Chengfen how to prevent infectious diseases, and Mr. President was lobbying Ling Qingyu not to make all the donations of 10 million US dollars. The hospital was to be divided into parts to establish a medical station, and other officials were engrossed in listening to them. Until Gu Sui stood beside him for half a minute and did not sit down, the official next to him raised his head and looked at him with questioning eyes.
Gu Sui had to sit down and listened to them as if they were happily ignoring him. His anger went up. When Ling Qingyu nodded and agreed to Mr. President's suggestion and said that the suggestion was very good, he said in French: "Miss Ling, this is a state banquet. It is not a place to talk nonsense. You must do what you say. Don't talk nonsense if you don't have ten million dollars."
