Chapter 2386 Alliance Invitation

"This meeting is not small."

Hearing the murmurs of Mr. Wang beside him, Yang Xiaotao nodded slightly.

Looking at the people present, it is not easy for anyone to sit here.

The one who chaired the meeting...

Just as Yang Xiaotao was thinking about it, he saw the door opened again and two old men walked in together.

The first person was wearing a gray Zhongshan suit, with his left hand raised in front of his abdomen. He walked slowly with a warm smile on his face.

He is handsome and elegant!
At first glance, the thin old man in front of him still looks old, but he gives people a feeling of being full of energy!

More like, a lot younger.

Yang Xiaotao looked at the thin old man with a smile on his face.

He knew that all this was the result of the "little green bean" incident last time.

I was thinking about when I could exchange it for another one, and then I would give it to my uncle.

Of course, the prerequisite is that you have enough credits.

And this is a bit difficult!

Behind the thin old man was Old Chen. The two of them walked in chatting and laughing, and then greeted everyone.

Everyone stood up quickly and greeted each other.

"Comrades, you came very early. Are we late?"

The thin old man walked to the main seat, glanced at everyone and joked, which made the atmosphere in the entire meeting room become relaxed.

Huang Lao laughed and said, "Commander, we have to hurry up when we receive the call!"

Old Qin also smiled, "Yes, yes, you look good, Chief. Could it be some good news this time?"

Mr. Wang nodded immediately, "That must be a good thing!"

Everyone was talking at once, and Yang Xiaotao stood aside and smiled. It was not the right time for him to interrupt.

Noticing Tang Mingyue behind the old man, Yang Xiaotao smiled at her.

After Tang Mingyue walked in, she had been paying attention to Yang Xiaotao. When she saw him looking at her, she subconsciously tucked her hair behind her ears and nodded slightly at Yang Xiaotao.

"Commander, you see, as soon as you come, these people only have eyes for you, and they don't even say hello to me!"

At this time, Old Chen was joking nearby. Without waiting for the thin old man to speak, everyone quickly changed their target and greeted Old Chen again in the same way as before.

Old Chen laughed, "Look, the words are exactly the same as what I just said, they haven't changed at all!"

"It can be seen that these guys are just perfunctory!"

Now everyone burst into laughter again.

The thin old man waved his hand and said, "Old Chen, you can't ask for too much. It's good enough that they can tell you. Normally, no one dares to listen to what they want to say!"

"Yes, that's right!"

Mr. Chen echoed, and the atmosphere in the meeting room became much more enthusiastic.

After everyone had met, the thin old man nodded to Mr. Chen and then sat in the main seat.

Mr. Chen asked everyone to sit down and then sat aside.

The door of the conference room was closed. Tang Mingyue sat behind the old man, holding a pen and paper, ready to take notes.

Old Chen looked at everyone again, especially at Yang Xiaotao, and was curious. This kid didn't say a word since he broke in. Could he be uncomfortable?
A thought flashed through his mind, and then he spoke, "Comrades, I have called everyone together for this meeting today. First, we want to chat with everyone. We have nine departments in the Ministry of Industry, plus the Logistics Department. To be honest, there are so many people. We don't get together very often."

"Take this opportunity to get to know each other!"

Mr. Chen spoke in a casual manner, and everyone looked at each other and laughed.

Many people looked at Yang Xiaotao, after all, he was a newcomer!
As expected, Elder Chen looked at Yang Xiaotao and said, "As everyone knows, we established the Ninth Division last year. Let me formally introduce Comrade Yang Xiaotao and Comrade Li Hongfeng to you!"

After he finished speaking, Yang Xiaotao and Li Hongfeng quickly stood up and greeted everyone.

Among those present, only the bosses of the Fourth, Fifth and Eighth Ministries of Machine Building were not very familiar to him, but he knew everyone else.

Yang Xiaotao and the other person stood up to introduce themselves to everyone, and then quickly sat down.

He made up his mind at this meeting that unless he was called upon to speak, he would just act as a recorder and just listen to his ears and brain!
Elder Chen nodded and continued with a smile, "Although the Ninth Department was established late and its foundation is not as good, it has great potential!"

"You big brothers, please take good care of us!"

Mr. Huang, Mr. Zhang and others smiled.

Everyone knew that this was just a joke from Mr. Chen.

Considering the current development situation of the Nine Departments, it’s hard to say whether we can take care of them, but we must lend a hand and maintain a good relationship with them!

You know, the things that the Ninth Department has done are really eye-catching.

"Now, our nine departments cover almost the entire industrial production field, so I hope everyone can sincerely unite and help each other!"

"Let's build the revolution together, strengthen the country, and benefit the people!"

Papapa

Applause broke out and everyone looked serious.

They naturally understood what Mr. Chen meant, which was unity!

This is Mr. Chen’s attitude, and naturally it is the attitude from above.

In the future, the nine ministries will be more closely connected.

Likewise, the nine united machine departments are expected to make an effort!

Old Wang reached out and nudged Yang Xiaotao, "Did you hear that? Unity!"

"Give us more pure silicon later!"

Yang Xiaotao kept clapping and ignored Mr. Wang.

That is solidarity and mutual assistance, not extortion!

After Chen Lao finished speaking, the thin old man nodded and said, "Originally, this meeting should have started earlier!"

"But there are a lot of things to do before and after the New Year, so let's take this opportunity to catch up!"

As soon as the thin old man opened his mouth, everyone's expressions immediately became serious.

“I read last year’s report!”

"Overall, our GDP has more than doubled compared to before, and foreign exchange has increased by more than 800 percent."

"The domestic production machinery has also doubled..."

The thin old man knew everything like the back of his hand, and without saying a single statistic, everyone's face was filled with smiles.

"Especially in the fields of medicine and aerospace, we have achieved remarkable results, and some projects are even ahead of the curve!" Having said that, the thin old man looked to the left.

Seeing this, not to mention the excitement of Mr. Wang and Mr. Qin beside them.

Even he himself clenched his fists slightly, feeling excited!
The thin old man retracted his gaze and continued, "These improvements are inseparable from the efforts of our workers and comrades, the support of the people across the country, and are closely related to all of you present here!"

The thin old man was in a good mood. He put his hands on the table, stood up, smiled and said politely, "Here, on behalf of my superiors, I would like to thank everyone for their hard work!"

After saying that, he bowed.

When everyone saw this, they immediately stood up and bowed. For a moment, the room became lively again.

Yang Xiaotao also witnessed the scene of the big guys holding a meeting.

This is a rare scene!
Well, it’s similar to a village meeting.

The only difference is that there are more things on the table and they are more neatly arranged.

The thin old man talked for a while, then picked up the enamel pot and drank some water to moisten his throat, and said again, "Next, let's talk about business!"

Yang Xiaotao immediately sat up straight, and Mr. Wang and Mr. Qin beside him also looked serious.

After a while, the thin old man continued, "The Alliance is going to hold a scientific research results exchange meeting!"

“This exchange meeting will invite all member states of the alliance, as well as countries in the Middle East, Southeast Asia and other countries.”

"We also received a formal official invitation!"

“Invite our scientific researchers to exchange ideas and seek technological development!”

After the thin old man finished speaking, everyone fell silent.

Alliance invitation, technological exchange?

Would you be so kind?
"Commander, could it be that the weasel is paying New Year's greetings to the chicken, with ulterior motives?"

Seeing that no one spoke, Mr. Huang took the lead and asked.

"Last time you said the plane was lost. That's nonsense. How can we get back if we are lost?"

"Yeah, I feel like the other party has bad intentions."

"If it doesn't work, just refuse it."

People expressed their opinions one after another, and they did not trust the alliance from the bottom of their hearts.

Maybe it still had prestige in the past, but now...

This alliance is becoming less and less like an alliance.

The thin old man nodded slightly but did not say anything. Instead, he turned his head to look at Mr. Chen.

Seeing this, Old Chen looked solemn, and then he said, "What Old Huang said makes sense!"

“But this is an opportunity!”

After Elder Chen glanced at everyone, he continued, "Let's give time a chance."

"No matter what the other party is thinking, at the very least, we cannot close this window!"

"Besides..."

At this point, Chen Lao took a deep breath and said, "Besides, we have made quite a splash this time, and the United States is planning something bad. We need to find someone to share the pressure!"

Everyone looked stern.

Not to mention anything else, the United States is extremely angry about the weapons support to Bei'an.

Otherwise, would they send a little black bird to conduct reconnaissance?
When U2 was around, I wanted to come here eight times a day.

As a result, the U2 was knocked down by the bamboo pole and replaced by the Blackbird.

Now, the little black bird doesn't dare to come over. The other party knows nothing about the information here and is completely in the dark.

With those guys in the United States who have a strong desire for control, if they can't see the situation here, they might develop paranoia in their hearts.

So the other party will definitely take action.

It's just a matter of time!

After hearing what Mr. Chen said, everyone knew that this matter was most likely to fail!
But who is going?
Everyone fell silent again.

To communicate, you must first have something to show for it.

But you can't reveal your financial situation.

This is difficult to handle.

Seeing that everyone was silent again, Old Chen looked at the thin old man next to him. The latter laughed and attracted everyone's attention!

"Actually, you don't have to think too much!"

“Just treat it as a technology exchange activity!”

"As for other matters, naturally there are others to handle them."

After hearing this, Mr. Huang, Mr. Zhang and others' expressions immediately relaxed. If that was the case, then it was nothing.

Yang Xiaotao felt relieved, he was thinking too much.

Matters at other levels will naturally be handled by superiors.

They just need to send people to learn and communicate.

Learning something is the main purpose of this exchange activity!
Everyone figured it out, but the solemnity on their faces did not diminish.

"Commander, how many people should we send? And who should we send?"

It was Mr. Huang who asked.

"There is no limit on the number of personnel. You can make the specific arrangements yourself."

When the thin old man said this, Tang Mingyue behind him handed him a document, "This is an invitation letter from the alliance."

"They are holding this exchange event at Susco Central College on the sixth of next month!"

"The other party invited us to three main fields, namely aerospace, mechanical manufacturing and medicine!"

After the thin old man finished speaking, he swept his eyes over everyone and said, "Let's discuss today which projects and technologies to bring out for exchange!"

"Also tell us what technologies we need to learn! This time we are communicating with scientists from various countries."

"What a rare opportunity!"

"Everyone, please speak freely!"

After the thin old man finished speaking, he saw that everyone was about to fall silent again, so he directly called out the name, "Comrade Yang Xiaotao, you are young, don't learn from them, you must have passion."

"Come on, tell me what you think!"

Everyone looked at Yang Xiaotao.
