Chapter 606 Yang Ming participated in the Canton Fair for the first time!
Yang Ming slept in the Oriental Hotel.
When I woke up after a break, it was already 16:45 in the afternoon.
I have to say that it was quite tiring to drive from Xiangjiang to Yangcheng in a hurry.
After Yang Ming got up, he had afternoon tea at the Oriental Hotel.
The afternoon tea here is Yangcheng's afternoon tea. In addition to various snacks for foreign guests, there are also Western pastries, Pu'er tea, jasmine, etc., as well as coffee.
Yang Ming asked Lin Xiuzhi to call Huang Yaonan, Mou Shili, President Xia and others.
When they came over, Yang Ming invited them to sit down and have afternoon tea together.
At this time, even President Xia of the Hong Kong Jockey Club regarded Sir Yang as his boss. President Xia knew very well that he had nothing to do with the country. He was just representing the Hong Kong Jockey Club to negotiate with Yangcheng. Can't agree.
This is not a question of whether there is a translator, but whether there is a middleman named Sir Yang.
Enjoy afternoon tea here.
Return to the guest room where Yang Ming lives.
Yang Ming looked at President Xia and said: "President Xia, the day after tomorrow is the 48th Canton Fair. I will also attend the Canton Fair activities with the relevant people in Yangcheng. After the Canton Fair, your Jockey Club can talk to the relevant people in Yangcheng."
At this time, the Canton Fair is the real business.
President Xia already understands this.
Huang Yaonan and Mou Shili did the same, asking them to go back and have a good rest first, and then attend the 48th Canton Fair in Yangcheng together the day after tomorrow.
That night.
Yang Ming had a simple dinner at Dongfang Hotel.
Returning to the guest room, I looked at the Oriental Culture Hotel being built in the distance.
This is a five-star hotel invested in Yangcheng by the Oriental Mandarin Hotel Group, a subsidiary of Jardine Matheson.
Originally, that location was historically the Z Country Hotel invested by Hu Yingxiang, Li Jiacheng, Zheng Yutong and others. Now because of the emergence of Yang Ming, they have not been able to establish such a hotel.
Today, in addition to the Huacheng Hotel invested by Lijia, the White Swan Hotel invested by Huo Yingdong is also a five-star hotel invested by the Oriental Mandarin Hotel, a subsidiary of the Imperial Group's Jardine Group.
It can now be seen that the Oriental Mandarin Hotel is still under construction and will be completed next year at the earliest. This way, when the Canton Fair is held in the future, businessmen from abroad can stay in this high-end hotel.
Have a night's rest.
Early the next day.
After Yang Ming got up.
Mr. Ren’s Secretary Li has come over.
"Mr. Yang, I don't know about the opening ceremony of the Canton Fair tomorrow. Are you ready to speak?"
According to Mr. Yang's status, it is already a great honor for him to attend the opening ceremony of this Canton Fair.
"Secretary Li, I am not going to speak."
Yang Ming doesn't like to speak, nor does he like to be too high-profile in the country.
Secretary Li wrote it down.
On that day, Yang Ming took Azhu, Zhong Chuhong, Guan Jiahui, Lin Xiuzhi and others around Yangcheng.
. . .
1980 10 Month 20 Day.
The first day of the 48th Autumn Canton Fair.
In addition to Yang Ming, A Zhu, Zhong Chuhong, Guan Jiahui, Lin Xiuzhi, Chen Zhenhua and Zhang Guohua, there are also Huang Yaonan, Mou Shili, Chairman Xia and others.
They left the Oriental Hotel and went to the nearby exhibition hall where the Canton Fair was held.
This exhibition hall is not the Pazhou Exhibition Hall in Yang Ming's previous life.
However, from the outside, it doesn't seem small.
The organizational structure of the Canton Fair at this time was a professional trading group composed of major import and export corporations under the Ministry of Economy and Trade and branches in various provinces and municipalities directly under the Central Government.
It mainly includes grain, oil and food, textile, chemical industry, medicine, native livestock, light industry, technology, machinery, mining and minerals, and equipment trading groups. Each trading group occupies one exhibition hall.
Yang Ming and others took the invitation card and went in. At this time, it was not yet time for the opening ceremony, and many people were already inside.
Representatives of products from various provinces came to participate in the exhibition, and there were even some from national forest farms, national farms, and major state-owned enterprises. They were basically all these, and there were still very few private products.
There are not even many joint venture products.
There is one more difference this year, and that is the introduction of customers from Wanwan, which means that customers from Wanwan can also negotiate contracts with the exhibition here.
Now Yang Ming can see that in addition to the large number of Chinese people, there are also quite a few ghosts.
There are many white people and black people.
Most of the businessmen participating in the exhibition are from Asian, African and Latin American countries. As for Europe, America, and Japan, it’s not that they don’t exist, they just don’t have that many.
When Yang Ming took A-Zhu and others inside to visit, it was the first time for A-Zhu, Guan Jiahui, Zhong Chuhong and others to see this kind of exhibition.
It seems that most domestic exhibitions focus on agricultural products.
after an hour.
Yang Ming is still visiting.
Someone has come.
"Mr. Yang, Mr. Ren, please come over."
Yang Ming and others came to Mr. Ren and Mr. Liang and quickly held the opening ceremony of the 48th Canton Fair.
The opening ceremony was still very lively.
In addition to speeches by Mr. Ren, Mr. Liang and others, there were also various singing and dancing performances, which were full of joy.
Yang Ming and others were invited to sit down between Mr. Ren and Mr. Liang.
When the host announced the official start of the 48th Autumn Country Z Export Trade Exhibition, Mr. Ren began to speak, one after another.
Yang Ming sat there and mainly applauded, and the main representative finished his speech, followed by a song and dance performance.
Lasting until noon, Mr. Ren and others took Yang Ming and others to visit the items in major exhibition halls.
Among them, the China Native Animal Trading Group is located in Hall 4, selling bulk commodities such as fur and leather products, carpets, bristles, casings, down, tea; spices, wood, fireworks, dried fruits, etc.
Yang Ming and others watched and communicated with the exhibitors here.
The market in Xiangjiang is not big, so there is not much demand in this area, but the demand from abroad is huge.
Including fur leather products.
The Fur Leather Product Department is located in the lobby on the fourth floor of the exhibition hall. The negotiation room is made of wooden boards and frosted glass partitions. The entire negotiation hall is antique, gorgeous, upscale, and filled with a faint scent of camphor.
Each negotiation room is simply arranged with two square tables, a few folding chairs, a gantry hanger for hanging samples, and a small cabinet for tea sets. A dedicated waiter is responsible for pouring water for making tea.
Like a hospital clinic, merchants queue up and wait in the lobby outside the door.
This is the first time for Yang Ming to visit an exhibition of this era. It can be seen that Yangcheng has been held for 48 consecutive times and is relatively mature.
In Yang Ming's opinion, it still doesn't work.
During lunch in the afternoon, Yang Ming and others left here with Mr. Ren and others.
At this time, the exhibition hall was even more lively, and the trading orders of white people, black people, and domestic exhibitors were constantly rising.
When Yang Ming, Mr. Ren and others came to Dongfang Hotel for lunch, Mr. Ren asked: "Mr. Yang, what do you think of the Canton Fair in Yangcheng?"
"Mr. Ren, the Canton Fair has been held for so many years, and all aspects of the system are still relatively mature. However, I think there are still some aspects that need to be improved. For example, the products of state-owned enterprises are basically the main ones now, as well as national forest farms, national farms, etc. On the contrary, I didn’t see a few private companies, or even a joint venture. In my opinion, as a national exhibition, it is to sell its own products for external exhibitions, and it should be included in the self-employed, and even joint ventures. Including, like Clothing for self-employed individuals and various products of joint venture companies will drive more foreign businessmen to purchase and place orders, which will also be of great benefit to the development of the Canton Fair."
