Great Power Industry: You're a private company building an aircraft carrier?

"Steelmaking!"

"P92 steel!"

Finally, someone remembered.

Abel was also momentarily dazed. Oh right, we came here to see steelmaking, how could we have forgotten that!

"Mr. Qin, we have heard that your company can smelt advanced P92 steel, so we would like to see it for ourselves."

At this moment, Yu Hongxin and the others were filled with worry again.

The P92 steel issue is still unresolved. Qin Chuan's request for crude steel from Ansteel is still under coordination; there's no way to expedite that process!

"Okay, of course no problem."

Qin Chuan nodded: "We can even make this kind of advanced steel wire rope, let alone simple steel. Let's go celebrate first, and then we'll talk. My stomach is still growling."

After saying that, Qin Chuan touched his stomach.

I'm really hungry.

The food I ate last night has long been digested. I came here as soon as I opened my eyes this morning, and after a lot of rambling, I still haven't eaten anything.

“Okay, then we’ll go eat first, and then come back to watch you smelt steel.” Abel nodded.

If they can build arresting cables, then P92 steel might not be a problem. If this young man really did build it, then he's a real talent!

Abel was moved by the talent.

……

Dongxinglou.

"Come on, everyone, you've come all this way, try our local specialties."

Qin Chuan was warm and hospitable: "Here, this is braised chicken, it's spiced, the meat is tender and juicy, and it's fragrant without being greasy..."

After saying that, Qin Chuan glanced at the female translator standing next to the table and said, "Girl, sit down too. You've worked so hard. Sit down and have something to eat."

The female translator shook her head: "My duty is..."

"No matter what job you do, you have to take care of your own food and drink first. People are made of iron, and food is steel. You'll get hungry if you skip a meal. Sit down, we won't need to translate if we eat."

The female translator looked around and realized there weren't many empty seats at the table. Should she go over there, except for the one next to Qin Chuan?

"Here, girl, have a chicken leg first." Qin Chuan tore off a chicken leg and put it on the plate next to him.

The female translator didn't hesitate any longer, and she was indeed hungry, so she sat down.

Qin Jianguo was relieved.

This son of his used to be a troublemaker, riding his motorcycle around and getting into trouble with quite a few girls. He was annoyed at the time, but now that Qin Chuan is busy with factory work every day, he's starting to worry. When will his son bring a wife home? The Qin family doesn't have any children yet.

However, Qin Chuan is so capable that he probably wouldn't even look at people from the village or county. This female translator is from the capital, so she should be a good match for Qin Chuan. She's also very pretty.

Thinking of this, Qin Jianguo continued to look at the female translator, liking her more and more the more he looked at her.

"Dad, hurry up and entertain the guests!" Qin Chuan looked at his father.

So Qin Jianguo picked up his glass and said, "It's an honor for us all to be here at our Laiyang factory today. Cheers!"

"cheers!"

The Frenchman opposite him also raised his glass and clinked it with Qin Jianguo's. Before he could even drink, Qin Jianguo tilted his head back and gulped down the entire glass of wine.

Even red wine and brandy are not drunk in one gulp like this. And this is the way you drink baijiu in your hand?

They saw that everyone else was drinking like that, so they had no choice but to grit their teeth and drink it down in one gulp.

Although it's baijiu (Chinese white liquor), it doesn't burn my throat at all, and it even makes my stomach feel warm. What kind of liquor is this?

"Come on, let's get to know each other better after this first time. Let's cooperate more in the future. Cheers!" Qin Chuan raised his glass.

The female translator standing to the side looked at Qin Chuan with curiosity. She had seen many people and many things, but she had never seen someone as young as Qin Chuan who could chat and laugh with foreigners so easily.

Most people treat foreigners with utmost respect, and some even fawn over them.

“Qin, you are very capable. Would you like to develop your career in France?” Abel asked.

"Come, drink."

Seeing that Qin Chuan did not react, Abel turned to the female translator and said, "Miss Yang Xue, please help translate."

Yang Xue nodded.

"Go to France to develop your career?" Qin Chuan looked at the other person: "Mr. Abel, thank you for your kind offer."

Hearing this, Yang Xue felt a pang of disappointment. Was Qin Chuan just like everyone else? She hid her emotions and continued translating.

"Your Alstom is a large international company, a Fortune 500 company. How could I possibly accept being your CEO?"

Hearing this, Yang Xue almost burst out laughing again. This Qin Chuan was playing tricks on the French again.

"No, no, we don't intend to hire you as president. We don't have that authority. We want to hire you as an engineer."

"Although Yangchang is a small factory, I'm the one in charge here." Qin Chuan looked at the other person: "If I go to your factory, I'll just be an ordinary engineer. What's the point of that? I won't do it!"

"Mr. Qin, as you just said, we are a large international company, a Fortune 500 company, and there are better prospects for development here."

“No matter how big a company is, it’s meaningless if you’re not the top leader,” Qin Chuan said. “Besides, we don’t need to envy others. In ten years, our Laiyang Factory will also be a major international company, a Fortune 500 company!”

Yang Xue's eyes widened as she looked at Qin Chuan with curiosity. This was too domineering!

How can a sparrow know the ambition of a swan? This young man before me has lofty aspirations!

Luo Rongguang, Guo Xiangyang, Yu Hongxin and others at the same table also looked at Qin Chuan with complicated expressions. No wonder he was able to lead the Laiyang Factory to grow and prosper. His vision and ambition are unmatched by many state-owned enterprise executives!

Just then, someone rushed in and whispered something in Luo Rongguang's ear, which immediately made him overjoyed.

Great, Ansteel really did a fantastic job!

After the letter of request for help was sent, they immediately coordinated and prioritized loading a train car full of crude steel, which was then sent to a nearby station and should arrive by midnight tonight!

So next, it's just a matter of stalling for time, stalling until tomorrow... wait, it seems like that's no longer necessary.

A Frenchman across from me collapsed onto the table.

"Hey, what's going on?" Qin Chuan looked at the Frenchmen opposite him: "You're drunk after only three glasses? This is our Lanling wine, not Mendao Lv!"

puff!

Yang Xue laughed again.

"Since the guests are all drunk, help them to the side to rest. Comrade translator, you should rest too."

"I……"

Yang Xue wanted to say something, but then felt that there was really nothing she could do to help.

"Engineer Yu, what exactly is going on?" Qin Chuan then looked at Yu Hongxin: "I haven't even prepared yet, and you've already brought the French here. They want to see our P92 steel. You know, we haven't even started refining it yet."

Yu Hongxin looked embarrassed: "Yes, it's my fault. I was too excited at the time. But... the steel has been coordinated. Are you confident that the first batch will be ready?"

"It should be fine," Qin Chuan said. "If there are any problems, we can just modify the data."

Yang Xue was about to leave when she heard this and stopped, staring wide-eyed at Qin Chuan.

You're incredibly brave!

Qin Chuan smiled and said, "We've already made up our minds, so we absolutely can't lose face! But this is just the worst-case scenario; it shouldn't be a big problem."
