Chapter 209 Exhibition
In this world, there are always some people who think that everyone should revolve around them. When things are going smoothly, they don't think anything of it. Once things go wrong, the gap will be particularly strong.
Qiu Huoming gave up the position of vice president this time, not without careful thought. He originally participated in the election to cause trouble for Tan Jialiang, and never thought that he could be elected.
He later analyzed it and found that the majority of boys in the engineering college were male. Tan Jialiang had some abilities, but his conduct was not good, especially because he was rumored to be a philanderer...
Originally, the College of Engineering was a 'monk's temple', but he was still so arrogant. They were probably venting their dissatisfaction with Tan Jialiang through voting, and they did not really value themselves.
He is only a freshman, and he cannot hold the position of vice president at the moment. So many ministers and some old student union members will not accept him. In addition, Jiang Feng, who has always been kind to him, also He was just a minister, but he jumped on his head as soon as he came, which made him look somewhat ugly.
Qiu Huoming got into a situation and figured out a lot of things.
Sometimes, retreat is the only way to advance.
After Tan Jialiang was called to the security department, he completely denied what Cai Jiwei told him. There were no traces of him in the recordings and photos he took from Cai Jiwei. The incident could at best be characterized as campus bullying.
He knew the seriousness, so naturally he refused to admit it.
If he doesn't admit it here, Cai Jiwei will take the whole thing.
This kind of investigation cannot be determined in one or two days. The two of them were temporarily suspended from class, waiting for further processing. Qiu Huoming handed Xin Xiaoyan's final letter to Director Ke that afternoon and told the source of the letter. Again.
Director Ke was furious after reading the letter, "This matter can only be reported to the police. This is not something our security department can handle."
Qiu Huoming got a clear answer and felt relieved, "Okay, I believe the school will handle it impartially, Director Ke, then I'll go back first."
"Well, you've been tired for the whole day, so go back and rest early..."
As soon as Qiu Huoming walked into the corridor, he saw a staff member running over quickly from the gate.
He ran quickly past Qiu Huoming.
Qiu Huoming turned back curiously, took a few steps, and looked over.
Guarding Corey, the staff member held the door and panted heavily, reporting to Director Ke: "Director, that Tan Jialiang was stabbed by... a student. He was just stopped by a few of us. I... Just come here quickly... and give you a message."
Director Ke stood up and asked, "Are you seriously injured?"
"It's not serious. It just cut my arm. I've asked the school doctor to bandage it. The student's surname is Zheng... Director, what should I do next..."
"Detain the perpetrator first. As for Tan Jialiang..."
Qiu Huoming looked away and stopped listening to the corner. He didn't expect that Zheng Yongqiang, who had always been cowardly, would be so angry. But it was difficult for him to judge whether this behavior was right or wrong. He only felt sad in his heart. He walked along the corridor. outdoor.
The sun is shining brightly outdoors, and the tall trees in Lingnan stretch their limbs in the sun...
The roots of the huge banyan tree were intertwined with each other. Standing among them, he looked extremely small.
There are many ills in this era. This giant is sick, but he knows that something is wrong with him, and he is gradually recovering... There are many things that cannot be done now, and there are also some things that need to be done with caution...
Qiu Huoming squinted his eyes and avoided the scorching sun. His heart was too big. He had almost no foundation, but he wanted to reach the sky in one step. He might as well learn from these trees and sink his roots into the earth first.
He didn't bother to worry about what was going to happen next. The end of these people would not be pretty, just give them a try.
The next day, Teacher Xu's appointment letter came out, and he was appointed as the head of the 'Radio' Department.
The seat that had been vacant for a long time was finally occupied by someone. It was a timely blessing for the radio department, and many projects were carried out more smoothly.
Things have been happening one after another recently. Qiu Huoming feels that he is somewhat of a troublemaker, and he has been keeping a low profile recently.
On the morning of the 15th, before dawn, Qiu Huoming and his party got on the jeep arranged by the school. They had breakfast in the car and got off.
Today is the first day of the Canton Fair. They have to go to the venue in advance. A special car will be sent here today. They will have to take the car themselves in the next few days.
After checking their IDs, Qiu Huoming and the other three entered the venue. Outside the venue, Qiu Huoming saw many young adults squatting on the road waiting for work. Today was Friday and school was in session. On Sunday, they could really Let Yang Shijun and others come over to do odd jobs, and the foreigners will feel very happy if they pay them.
(Outside the exhibition, next to people waiting to do odd jobs)
They put on their work badges and followed the staff's arrangements to enter the venue. The next work was not what they wanted to do, and they had to follow the staff's coordination.
There are several doors in the venue. Luo Jinxiu from CUHK is not at their entrance and should be somewhere else.
The person in charge of the Canton Fair, Director Guo, was wearing a suit and stood straight. Looking at the past, the on-site staff were also dressed in formal clothes.
Even though I arrived early, there were already people queuing outside.
The guests were dressed differently from the staff. They had corsages on their chests.
Zhao Jiamin came over gently and said, "In a short while, people outside were lined up in two circles."
Zhang Song on the side tugged on his collar, "I'm a little nervous..."
"Just think that we are in the 'English Corner'. It's great. We have ready-made sparring partners, and their English is so authentic!"
"Not necessarily, foreigners also have dialects from various places." Zhao Jiamin retorted.
"That's right, but those who can go abroad probably don't come from small places..."
"Hey, people are coming in..." As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Song straightened his back and said, "We can't let foreigners take us lightly. We have to show our momentum."
"As expected of a senior, my consciousness is high. Okay, I can stand up straight." Qiu Huoming responded with a smile.
The few people didn't stand for long before the task came.
Qiu Huoming is responsible for entertaining two middle-aged men from the beautiful country, one named Berg and the other named Rey.
"How can I help you?"
"Dear Qiu, take us to see the semiconductor area..."
"Okay, please follow me."
Qiu Huoming chatted with them while walking. Berg said in surprise: "In the past when we came here, we rarely chatted... I heard them say, you are a student?"
Qiu Huoming responded, "I'm a student at South China Institute of Technology. I'm personally very interested in the semiconductor booth you're going to see. I majored in radio..."
"That's good. I'm also worried that non-professionals won't understand some of the questions..."
The three people chatted happily. The exhibition site was already crowded with guests. All the major manufacturers on the booth sent people to the scene. Some display boards were erected in front of the exhibits with brief introductions.
Semiconductor booths were almost dominated by radios and televisions. Qiu Huoming was lucky enough to see some of the products with the highest level of domestic craftsmanship in this era...
Berg and Rey stood at the radio booth, picked up a few and looked at them over and over. The manufacturer on the side greeted them in broken English.
They responded and then asked a few questions, all about technical issues about the product.
Then the conversation changed and he started asking about the production cycle and price. Qiu Huoming continued to act as a translator. This was a good job and he could know many business secrets.
After asking these questions, they walked to the TV again. There are now several varieties of color TVs. Although the colors are not comparable to those of later generations, it is still a big improvement.
Several TVs were turned on at the same time, and onlookers gathered nearby.
After a while, they selected the model, and the manufacturer led the two of them to the negotiation area aside to talk.
Every day here is a business opportunity for manufacturers. They carry official seals and blank contracts with them. Many orders are obtained from the exhibition...
Qiu Huoming translated their conversation meticulously without adding anything. It is better to be cautious with such business conversations.
After the negotiation was completed, Berg signed the contract directly on the spot. The manufacturer prepared the samples they requested and waited for them to take them away when they left.
The task was completed on the first day. Berg seemed very happy and talked about more topics, ranging from semiconductors to spare parts. "Dear Qiu, do you know anything about integrated circuits?"
"I don't know much about it, but according to Moore's Law, integrated circuits will definitely develop rapidly in the future..."
Rey, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked: "Do you know Moore's Law?"
"Mr. Rey, I said that I am a student in the radio department. I have some understanding of these related knowledge..."
"Then what do you think of Sakura Country's integrated circuit technology?"
Seeing that they were having a private conversation, the manufacturer over there immediately gave up his seat and went back to the booth to bring over a few cans of Coke that were only for foreign guests.
Qiu Huoming's eyes lit up, and he was reluctant to open the can of Coke.
Rey opened the Coke and took a sip and said: "There is no ice, so I have to make do with it..."
At this time, our country's national economy is very different from that of developed countries abroad. These things that they think are ordinary are extremely difficult to obtain at home.
Rey asked after putting down the coke, "You haven't answered my question yet."
Qiu Huoming smiled and said: "Their technology is very advanced. Under the current circumstances, I think the only thing that can check and balance them is your country's relevant technology..."
"As far as I know, General Electric can already manufacture higher-end integrated circuits. According to Moore's Law, this technology will become more powerful over time. Plus your country has a vast land area and abundant raw materials..."
"Oh, do you think we will eventually replace Sakura Country's leading position in the semiconductor industry?" Rey's blue eyes revealed a hint of excitement.
"I think, purely as far as integrated circuits are concerned, you will eventually win..."
Rey did not recognize his voiceover and immediately introduced himself, "I am an engineer from General Electric, and Mr. Berg is our company's agent. This time we come to your country together. He wants to do business. I think Yes, find a factory in Asia..."
"Hey, Rey, we haven't even said a word about this yet..." Berg immediately interrupted what he wanted to say next.
"Technical people are like this. It's easy to get stuck in their own ideas..." Berg explained to Qiu Huoming.
Rey smiled, "A student can see our potential, Berg, don't you think this is something worth celebrating?"
"I think Qiu is different from others, and his spoken language is more authentic than others. Dear Qiu, do you have family in our country?"
"Unfortunately not yet, but I very much agree with your country's attitude towards science and technology, and I also admire your company's emphasis on these scientific researches. If you really want to build a factory in Asia in the future, can we be your first choice?"
"Hahahaha..." Berg laughed.
"You are still a student. Let's wait until you become a towering tree..."
Rey did not laugh at him, "Berg is right, we can keep communicating. When one day everything matures and you become a towering tree, cooperation is not impossible..."
"Nothing is impossible..." he said, looking at Qiu Huoming.
"Thank you, I will try my best."
His thoughts were flying. A few years later, this peach was picked by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd. and began its take-off journey. In the future, related industries in the mainland will lag behind for a full 20 years.
In the future, other countries will choke the neck. If we start planning now, even if it is a butterfly that occasionally flaps its wings, it may deviate from the future.
"Dear Qiu, this is my mailing address..." Rey handed him a business card.
Qiu Huoming found a sticker, wrote down his address and exchanged it with him.
"Dear Qiu, please take us to other places." Berg suggested.
"I'm very happy. Let's take a look along the main stadium..." Qiu Huoming put the Coke into his trouser pocket and stood up.
After going around in a circle, they finally saw off the two of them. Qiu Huoming's feet were a little sore. Just as he was about to walk back, he saw a foreigner holding a round fan and asking about a bamboo product booth... …
The translator next to him was Luo Jinxiu. Her translator was stammering and she was already sweating. The foreigner kept shaking his head, "no..."
Qiu Huoming walked over and said, "Classmate Luo, let me ask."
Then he turned and looked at the foreigner: "Dear sir, may I help you in any way?"
Luo Jinxiu wore glasses today and didn't recognize Qiu Huoming when she looked at him, but the voice was very familiar and she couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
There was a hint of joy on the foreigner's face, and he handed the fan in his hand to Qiu Huoming, "Please help me ask, the origin of this fan?"
Qiu Huoming took the fan and turned it around, "The new cracks are all pure, as bright as frost and snow..." Qiu Huoming read an ancient poem, and then he looked at the bamboo product display stand on the stand. This is bamboo product furniture. Manufacturer.
Qiu Huoming looked at the foreigner and asked, "Excuse me, do you want to know its origin?"
"I want to purchase a batch of fans like this and bring them back to China..."
Qiu Huoming knew what was going on. He turned around and asked the manufacturer: "This gentleman wants to know the origin of this fan. If you can imitate it, he would like to order a batch..."
The manufacturer's staff then took the fan and said, "It's very beautiful, but we really don't know its origin."
The booth next to it belonged to a trading company. A woman in professional attire had been paying attention to what was going on here, and she suddenly walked over.
"I'm a salesperson from a foreign trade company. My name is Chen Li. Can you show it to me?" Chen Li asked, pointing to the fan.
Qiu Huoming consulted the foreigner's opinion and handed the fan to Chen Li after receiving his consent.
She took the fan and looked at it carefully, "I have seen this fan in a painting. If I remember correctly, it is called a round fan and it comes from Guilin..."
Qiu Huoming was moved when he heard this. He had been to Guilin. In addition to its famous mountains and rivers, it was famous for its fans.
He once heard an allusion, saying that a master there copied a certain kind of round fan that had been lost, and got a big order at a certain exhibition in the 80s.
He didn't see the fan, but he remembered the story. He thought about it carefully and realized that maybe it was the exhibition he was talking about. What a coincidence.
He took the fan back, walked to the foreigner, and handed it back to him, "This is a round fan from Guilin. It was originally reserved for ladies in ancient times. You should have seen similar fan scenes in some ancient Chinese paintings. …”
The foreigner was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, this fan is from my ancestor's collection. I have seen related paintings in the museum. I came to your country this time just to know its origin..."
"I want to place an order, but the product must be exactly the same, and a sample must be made for me first. The time can be extended to half a year. If it cannot be made, it will be considered a breach of contract..." The foreigner looked at Qiu Huoming and said eagerly.
Chen Li knew some foreign languages and understood part of what he meant. She immediately told Qiu Huoming, "I want to take this order for our company. There are some local hand-making masters in Guilin. I think imitation should not be a problem. "
"You have to think clearly. The other party has said that if it is not exactly the same, it will be considered a breach of contract."
Chen Li smiled and said: "This craft is not difficult for those old artists..."
Qiu Huoming nodded, turned around and said to the foreigner: "This lady said yes, please go to the side to discuss the details of cooperation."
Chen Li led the team to the nearby negotiation area.
Luo Jinxiu, who was following Qiu Huoming, suddenly had an idea. She pushed the frame of her glasses and shouted, "Qiu Huoming!"
