Chapter 665 Theory
On the dining table of the Consulate General, some of the words of Economic Counselor Feng Yuejin's "do not pay attention to" the inspection team made Zhao Guoyang very upset.
Yes, the foreign-related economic briefing in Quebec is indeed quite important.
However, this meeting is not for China, but for all countries and regions involving business investment in Quebec. Its importance is undoubtedly discounted.
Besides, in terms of priority, this foreign-related economic communication meeting is obviously higher than that in the economy.
The business counselor Pei Chunming did not say he wanted to participate. Obviously, Feng Yuejin's enthusiasm is very debatable.
Finally, another key point is that the inspection team I led was originally a North American economic and industrial exchange inspection team.
Since you just happened to catch up with this more important foreign economic communication meeting in Quebec, why did you, Feng Yuejin, not even know the leader of the inspection team, plan to go there by yourself?
All these things made Zhao Guoyang very dissatisfied with him, and he also decided to take this opportunity to argue with this Counselor Feng.
Looking at Feng Yuejin's puzzled gaze projected by him, Zhao Guoyang smiled faintly and said, "Counselor Feng, I have no other intentions. I just think that you, the economic counselor, have long had your own judgment on the current economic situation and future development direction of Quebec."
"Even if you attend this meeting in the past, it's just a reference. There is no need to take other people's own remarks too seriously. After all, the local government basically sings praises for this kind of foreign-related economic briefing, and rarely reveals its own shortcomings..."
Zhao Guoyang's words were very clear.
He is saying that as the economic counselor of the Chinese Consulate General in Quebec, you, Feng Yuejin, has worked here for so many years and should have had his own assessment of the local economic development.
Moreover, it should be a very professional and authoritative assessment.
Now, you, the dignified economic counselor, are so concerned about other people's self-talk. Is it suspected that you "do not do enough homework"?
The people at the scene were all smart people, so they naturally heard the doubts in Zhao Guoyang's dialect.
Kong Xianchao looked at Zhao Guoyang with some surprise, but he didn't expect that this young inspection team leader would be so sharp.
Pei Chunming and Li Haoping looked at each other inadvertently, both of which looked like they were watching the show.
Faced with Zhao Guoyang's doubts, Feng Yuejin finally couldn't hold back.
He snorted coldly, then tilted his head and looked at Zhao Guoyang and said, "I almost forgot that the inspection team led by Researcher Zhao is an exchange inspection team on North American economy and industry."
"It's not only about industry, but also about economic issues, you are also professional, right? I forgot to ask you a few questions, it's really not right!"
The provocation in Feng Yuejin's words was very obvious, and even Huo Xiufen, who was sitting on the edge, couldn't stand it.
Before, when Xu Guangyuan, the deputy leader, introduced the members of the inspection team to the Consulate General, he had made it clear.
The leader of the group, Zhao Guoyang, is a "special researcher" of the Ministry of Machinery and Electronics Industry "enjoys the special national allowances" and vice president of the National All-Terrain Vehicle Association. He is a technical talent.
Of course, Xu Guangyuan, a cadre from the Ministry of Foreign Trade, came to inquire about the economic work of the inspection team.
However, Counselor Feng ignored this incident and started from the "head up" of the inspection team and ran away from Researcher Zhao.
Obviously, he is fighting back against Researcher Zhao’s words just now.
Although he was a little angry, Huo Xiufen knew that his words were slight, so it was not easy to speak casually on such occasions.
At this moment, she could only secretly glance at Zhao Guoyang and pray that the young leader could turn the tide.
I originally thought that Zhao Guoyang would hand over economic issues to Xu Guangyuan to answer.
Who knew that after Feng Yuejin raised the question, he nodded calmly and said, "Counselor Feng is so serious, so it is definitely not worth asking for advice, but it is still necessary to discuss with each other!"
"Oh? Then please ask Researcher Zhao to share your thoughts with the comrades in our Consulate General, so that we can learn from the ideas of advanced economic development in China!"
Zhao Guoyang did not take Feng Yuejin's ridicule at all.
He said "hum" and said in his own voice: "When talking about Quebec's foreign-related economy, we must first talk about its geographical location!"
"We all know that Quebec is connected to Ontario in the west, to the Atlantic Ocean in the east, to the south, to Massachusetts and Minnesota in the United States. It is only 600 kilometers away from New York, the center of the world economy, and only 300 kilometers away from Boston, the education center in the United States."
"Its superior geographical location and broad prospects for economic development can be said to have very generous innate conditions."
After Zhao Guoyang said this, although the people at the Consulate General were still calm, they did not dare to underestimate the Captain Zhao.
No matter how well this researcher Zhao knows about the economy, at least his analysis from the general trend is definitely at a certain level.
After Zhao Guoyang finished speaking this, Kong Xianchao, Pei Chunming and Li Haoping all sat upright slowly, wanting to hear what his ideas were under him.
As for Feng Yuejin, although he was a little surprised, he still disagreed with it more.
In his opinion, what Zhao Guoyang just said is all about geographical common sense, and it is barely reasonable to force it to be involved in economic aspects.
But if his belly is only so good, it would be impossible to convince people.
This is especially true when he had already made big talk before.
Thinking of this, Feng Yuejin pretended to applaud and said, "Not bad, Researcher Zhao has a very in-depth research on the geographical location of North America and is quite comprehensive, haha!"
After Feng Yuejin said this, not only the deputy commanders of the inspection team, but also the three bosses of the Consulate General also felt a little dissatisfied.
In the eyes of everyone, no matter whether the economic content of Researcher Zhao is talking about, at least this narrative is still very effective.
The so-called flower-sed sedan chair is carried by everyone.
During his time in Canada, the Consulate General, who was fully responsible for reception, should praise him after Captain Zhao expressed his views.
It is too inappropriate to be as sarcastic as Feng Yuejin.
Just as Kong Xianchao frowned and was about to speak to ease the atmosphere, Zhao Guoyang had already spoken.
He nodded to Feng Yuejin and smiled and said, "If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools! Although I am not a professional in the economy, since the leaders of the ministries and commissions appointed me as the head of the North American economic and industrial exchange inspection team, including geography and economy, I need to have a deep understanding of all these situations. Do you think so, Counselor Feng?"
Feng Yuejin was shocked by Zhao Guoyang's words, so he was so naughty that he didn't know how to reply.
Seeing this somewhat inhumane Counselor Feng, he was speechless by Captain Zhao. Huo Xiufen, who had been listening carefully, couldn't help but smile happily.
Along the way, Huo Xiufen and Zhao Guoyang chatted for a long time and already had a very good understanding of the young team leader's knowledge reserves.
In Huo Xiufen's view, this researcher Zhao has a very deep understanding of whether it is industry, science and technology, economy or other fields.
Counselor Feng wanted to stump Researcher Zhao in this regard, which was really a bit whimsical.
After Zhao Guoyang blocked Feng Yuejin's words, he did not think it was offended and continued his speech.
He cleared his throat and started to speak: "I just made a brief analysis of the geographical location of Quebec. Its location advantages may be realized by everyone, so I will mention it here."
"First of all, Quebec is close to the most developed economic market in the world, such as America, and enjoys many preferential financial and tax policies for North American economic integration."
"Secondly, adjoining a world-class education center like Boston gives Quebec a great advantage in its research and development capabilities. The highly trained labor and highly competitive operating costs are also the advantages that location brings to Quebec."
"One other advantage that may be overlooked is Quebec's rich natural resources. Quebec, which is 1.7 million square kilometers tall, has 1 million lakes and rivers, and is extremely rich in natural resources. Half of its area is covered by forests and contains a large amount of mineral resources underground."
Speaking of this, Zhao Guoyang's expression gradually became solemn: "I think everyone should know that the importance of mineral resources is how important it is to the future development of industry and technology."
"To give the most obvious example, the aerospace industry in Montreal, Quebec is as famous as Seattle and Toulouse and one of the world's largest aerospace centers because of its resource support from Quebec, the third largest aluminium producer in the world."
"The abundant forest resources have also enabled the world's 10 largest pharmaceutical companies to operate in Quebec. For example, Merck Pharmaceuticals, Wyeth, GlaxoSmithKline, etc., to set up production bases here. Nearly half of Canada's biopharmaceutical industry is also concentrated in the Montreal region."
Zhao Guoyang's eyes swept over everyone one by one, and finally fell on Feng Yuejin: "Counselor Feng is an economic agent, so he should know how high the profits of the pharmaceutical industry are."
"These pharmaceutical companies alone will probably account for more than 40% of the economic contribution they make to Quebec every year?"
After being attacked by Zhao Guoyang for a moment, Feng Yuejin's face changed.
He could not read the content that Zhao Guoyang said just now.
