"Hello." George, who was wearing thick oil, greeted Sucheng.

Since he came to China, he has seen serious and upright Chinese men, serious and upright Chinese women, and serious Chinese children, but he has never seen a Chinese who cares a lot.

Su Chengru's expressions and actions were not pretended, which made George feel very fond of. The etiquette in formal occasions in China is very good, but living in formal occasions forever is sad.

Su Cheng raised his head, smiled at him, pointed to his pancakes, and said in English: "I drove all the way, I didn't eat breakfast, I was hungry."

Hearing that he spit out such a long list of English and including familiar things like driving, George was very happy and immediately spoke in English: "Is this your snack? I have eaten a lot of authentic bread, but I haven't had the chance to try local food yet."

Domestic officials have always wanted to make foreign businessmen feel at home. In their eyes, domestic food is really not worth mentioning, and it is far less than providing Western-style meals that each other is familiar with.

Su Cheng smiled and said, "There are all kinds of snacks sold outside the door, and you can also call the room service."

His English in college was ordinary, and he was a non-genius, but he was still a hard-working child. However, in this life, Sucheng, Peking University, was a memory genius, with nearly 20,000 words in his head, and some professional words were rare and boring.

Of course, the thinking pattern of talking to George was from later generations, and the grammar used by Siucheng was also from later generations.

The addition of the two has led to his English level by a higher level.

George was happy because he could talk normally. After all, the translation was a translator and had foreign affairs discipline, which was very boring. In addition, the vocabulary she used was extremely weird, many of which were old words before the beginning of the Cold War, which sounded like an old movie.

Several leaders looked at each other, but it was not easy to get angry in front of foreign guests. It was not until Su Cheng went to complete the room procedures that someone winked at the waiter.

So the waiter alertly said to Su Cheng: "Sorry, we have no empty rooms anymore."

"It's really gone?" Su Cheng also saw the leader's wink. However, he is from the oil system and he doesn't have to pay attention to local officials at all.

"Su Cheng, what's wrong?" George suddenly asked. Seeing Su Cheng frowned, he thought he was causing trouble. In the week in China, such things happened more than once.

Su Cheng shrugged and said, "They said there is no room."

"Why, there are several rooms empty on my floor." George said to the provincial party committee official next to him.

The latter explained helplessly: "For security reasons, we did not arrange people on that level."

"I believe China is a very safe country, and the Chinese are friendly and kind, so there is no need to prepare anything for me. Since there is no room, let Mr. Sucheng live on my floor." George stayed for a few days, said in a very skillful manner, and asked Sucheng again: "Is it OK?"

"No problem, thank you for yours." Su Cheng handed over the letter of introduction again.

At someone's instructions, the waiter finally completed the check-in procedure.

Sucheng blinked at the accompanying officer, continued to smile at George, and asked, "Do you live here alone?"

If he just accidentally met this foreigner at the beginning, and had a few chats and tested his English proficiency, he would become closer after getting to know him.

In these days, China still has various rules and regulations, and it is difficult to do many things by itself. Through foreign friends, it is simple and fartful. It is extremely convenient to know an overseas relative or have a foreign friend.

George also had the interest in chatting and smiled: "They all went to inspect the factories. We produced and imported chemical products, mainly various oils, ethylene and propylene, etc.."

"Then we are colleagues. Oh, I forgot to introduce that I work in Shengli Oilfield and is a large oil refining company. We produce crude oil, crude diesel, lubricating oil, etc., propane and ethylene, etc.," When saying these words, Sucheng deliberately brought several chemical terms to prove that he is indeed an insider.

These were all used when he was in school.

George's eyes lit up. He was originally here to explore the way, and immediately said: "I have been to your Daqing Oilfield. I do have the intention to go to Shengli Oilfield this time. Can you introduce it to me?"

"certainly."

The two of them started talking during the Q&A.

George's company is a major importer of chemical products. He purchases a large amount of crude oil, ethylene and other petrochemical products from the Chinese market every year. This time he came to China for the purpose of investigating and expanding the market.

They have always purchased and sold through China Chemical Import and Export Corporation. However, this approach is obviously not transparent enough.

Since leaving Beijing, George has been thinking on the train how to get more contact with local people and local businesses.

Sucheng happened to be delivered to the door.

For George, what is the cost of chatting? It would be better if he could learn more about China.

Before Sucheng intervened, the officials of the chemical import and export company who accompanied George and his party were still very calm. Until they talked about specific oil products, the official began to cough desperately, and was almost going to come forward to pull people. The officials in Shandong watched the changes.

Su Cheng seemed to have never heard of it.

Cui Hongguo was helpless when he watched his junior brother's performance, but he envied his freedom. Nowadays, rich state-owned enterprises do not take local officials seriously, such as the oil system, its own schools, its own hospitals, the Shengli Oilfield Command, and the Public Security Department, the Judicial Department, the Intermediate People's Court and the Procuratorate. He was not afraid of local governments at all. On the contrary, if the local government wants to use more oil, get more production materials, and sell more machines, he has to beg them to coax them.

As for chemical import and export companies, this kind of Bodhisattva is a type that offers benefits but not kicked away. No one will give up the immediate benefits to please them. For example, a super-large enterprise like Shengli Oilfield, it is common for big customers to bully stores.

English teachers from local universities gave officials a difficult translation because Sucheng's English is full of new words, artificial intelligence is bad enough, and sst (supersonic transport) makes her desperate.

On the other hand, George was getting happier and happier, and he had no intention of going upstairs to rest. If it weren't for taking care of Su Cheng's listening, his speaking speed would have been twice as fast. Even so, he would have reached the limit of translation.

After coming to China for so long, George finally found the feeling of speaking normally. The grammar and word use of English female teachers are fine, but the words themselves really make him feel uncomfortable. This is a feeling that is difficult to say, just like people in the 1930s chatting with people in the 1970s, or people in the 1970s talking with people in the 2000s.

George had to be careful not to use abbreviations. At the beginning, even OPEC would say "comanization of petroleum exporting countries" (OPP), a word he said was stumbling. Words like greenpower were even more troublesome. Judging from the replies from the translation, the other party obviously translated the magic of money into green magic, because she didn't know that the green here refers to the color of the dollar, and it might be happy that it would not be translated into the magic of environmental protection.

The so-called new words in Sucheng were actually learned in school. They were the same as female teachers who were translators, but also due to the backwardness of school textbooks. Many of the words he said now were the buzzwords from the late 1980s and early 1990s. It seemed that the school was born to prepare for students’ time travel and rebirth.

"Su, are you during the holiday?" George asked suddenly.

"That's right."

"Can you be my private translator?" George asked expectantly. From his perspective, the translators around him were assigned by negotiation companies, and the information was screened too well. Although Sucheng is also a Chinese, as long as he does not belong to a chemical import and export company, it is good that he can get more information.

Moreover, the way the other party uses language makes people feel more comfortable.

He said, turning to the female teacher and explained: "You translated well, but Su knows my cultural background and the company's business better. You can continue to translate them, but Su Cheng will translate for me."

The female teacher was still speaking Chinese to others, and Su Cheng had already reached out and said with a smile: "No problem, I'm so happy."

George and Su Cheng held hands and smiled and said, "How about the translation fee, $100 a day? I will stay for about 10 days."

"No problem." Su Cheng nodded.

When the officials of the chemical import and export company next to him heard the translation, they saw Su Cheng shook hands with George, and they were immediately furious.

He didn't want to lose his manners in front of foreign guests, and waited for George to go upstairs, and couldn't wait to shout at Su Cheng: "Are you still talking about foreign affairs discipline?"
