I heard that the Chinese delegation was going to hold a press conference, and the reporters who were wandering around the venue became very excited.
Although China has been reforming and opening up for nearly 10 years, the world does not know much about China. Most of the reporters at the conference had close contact with Chinese people for the first time, and they still had a lot of mystery in their hearts. In addition, the first
The commotion caused by a Chinese thermal spray machine at the conference venue one day was still fresh in the memories of the reporters, so when they received the news that the Chinese delegation was going to hold a press conference, all the reporters came to the second lecture hall on time.
"Dear ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon, everyone." Qin Hai stood on the podium with a smile and greeted everyone in English. "Thank you very much for your attention to the Chinese delegation in the past few days. Today
We are holding a press conference here, and the main purpose is to present to you several gifts we brought from China, and to introduce to you a newly developed household product."
"Gift?"
The reporters looked at each other in confusion. Giving gifts to reporters at press conferences was nothing new, but setting the theme of the press conference on giving gifts was a bit shocking. Before they could recover, they saw reporters from both sides of the venue.
There were three Chinese people. Two of the men were holding something in their hands, and walking in front of them was a beautiful young girl.
The two girls on both sides are naturally Ning Jing and Qin Shan. There are mostly men in the Chinese delegation, and most of the women are at the age of aunts. Only Ning Jing and Qin Shan are suitable for the role of etiquette ladies. Qin Hai brought them out.
When I was here, I didn't think that they could play such a big role. Now that I think about it, it was a wise move to bring these two little girls along with me.
In the midst of surprised eyes, Jing Jing and Qin Shan began to distribute gifts to the reporters, followed by the porters. The two girls were fashionably dressed and smiling, making people fall in love with them at first sight.
No reporter will refuse the gifts they send, and many people will pull them to their side after receiving the gifts, and then hand the camera to their colleagues next to them, asking them to take pictures of themselves and the beautiful Chinese girls.
A group photo.
The atmosphere at the venue suddenly became relaxed. Ning Jing and Qin Shan walked from one end of the venue to the other. It took them a full 20 minutes and finally gave a gift to all the reporters. The two girls finished
After the mission, I returned to the podium. Standing on the left and right, a flight attendant showed off her poses, which attracted countless eyes. The flashlights that were turned on at them even exceeded the treatment given to Qin Hai.
.
Alas, beauties themselves are news. Qin Hai thought sarcastically. He believes that in newspapers published around the world tomorrow, there will be a few photos of two little girls. This is not the case.
What a bad thing, let the world see the beauty of Chinese young people.
"Ladies and gentlemen." Qin Hai put away his random thoughts and began to speak to everyone: "Everyone has just received the gifts from Miss Ning Jing and Miss Qin Shan. Now please open the gifts and look inside.
There is something magical."
The gift each reporter got was a paper box tied with a colorful silk ribbon. Of course, the reserved reporters would not go to see what kind of gift they received in public. Now after listening to Qin Hai, everyone is here
Interested, they all began to untie the ribbon and unpack the package.
In the paper box, there are several things:
A piece of soft fabric wrapped in cellophane. Everyone is familiar with this thing. This is silk that is a specialty of China. Judging from the size, it should be a silk scarf or a shawl. Chinese silk has always been very popular among Westerners, but what about it?
Surprise, but not enough.
A folding fan unfolds with Chinese paintings on one side and Chinese calligraphy on the other. This is also a gift with Chinese characteristics. However, it cannot arouse the curiosity of well-informed reporters.
The last thing is very strange. It is a knife wrapped in silk. Some people get kitchen knives, and some people get fruit knives. They are all different. The surprising thing is that this knife
The whole body is white, smooth and delicate, and it is clearly made of ceramics. Compared with the knives commonly used by people, its appearance looks so elegant, it simply does not look like a household item, but an exquisite handicraft.
"Seller of cakes, what is this!" a reporter who liked it shouted out.
"I recognized it. Isn't this the ceramic rake blade that the Chinese delegation sent for testing?" Another reporter responded, "The cake seller, it turns out that this thing can be made into a fruit knife!"
"It's so beautiful. Although it can't be used to cut fruit, it is also very good to put on the bookshelf as a work of art." Some journalists with artistic temperament began to have wild imaginations.
"Who said it can't cut fruit? Look..." The puzzled engineering men appeared. They tore a piece of paper directly from the interview book, then picked up the ceramic knife in front of them and cut the paper easily.
Cut into pieces.
One person started like this, and other reporters were also inspired. For a moment, the sound of paper cutting was heard in the lecture hall, as if he had walked into a silkworm shed.
Qin Hai couldn't help but find it funny watching these childlike reporters testing the sharpness of ceramic knives. He let everyone play for a few minutes, and then he knocked on the microphone to focus everyone's attention again.
"As we all know, China is the hometown of ceramics. As early as... years ago, Chinese ceramics have been..." Qin Hai made a lyrical statement first, and then returned to the topic: "Today, Chinese enterprises use high-tech means to...
The world took the lead in conquering the nano-ceramic technology and produced the exquisite and sharp ceramic knives you see before your eyes...
This kind of ceramic knife uses zirconium dioxide as the base material, which is safe and non-toxic. Its Mohs hardness can reach 9.0, second only to diamond. Regarding the wear resistance of zirconium dioxide ceramics, you can already know from the basic parts test at this expo
You can see that the rake blades we use this material have a wear-resistant life of nearly 900 hectares. In other words, the ceramic knives in your hands can be used for decades without worrying about blade wear. This is
Incomparable to traditional metal knives..."
The reporters who can come to interview the agricultural machinery exhibition are all scientifically literate and can judge that what Qin Hai said is true. They have just used this kind of ceramic knife with their own hands and can feel its beauty and sharpness. Then they heard Qin Hai say this
At first glance, how could they not imagine the market potential of this product? Their faces turned red, and they desperately recorded every word Qin Hai said. They already had every newsletter in their mind.
"This kind of ceramic knife will be put on the global market in the near future. We sincerely hope that all friends from the media can help us vigorously promote it. Please remember a Chinese saying: Which ceramic knife is best? Look for Qu Tao in Linxi, China!"
Qin Hai really said the last sentence in Chinese. He spoke very slowly and catchy, and the reporters sitting here all followed him with great interest: "Which ceramic knife is better? China Linxi
Find Qu Tao!"
In the subsequent newspapers, more than a dozen of them actually wrote the original Chinese text of this paragraph, along with the phonetic symbols. So many years later, when many foreigners showed off their Chinese skills, they always said that they
I can recite a Chinese poem called "Which ceramic knife is better"...
"Okay, you are ready to go back and organize production."
After the press conference ended, Qin Hai said to Liu Shuo and Huang Yanling with a smile as he watched the reporters leaving the venue with machetes in their hands.
"Xiao Qin, you are so capable!" Liu Shuo took Qin Hai's hand and didn't know what to say. At this moment, he secretly made up his mind that no matter how far the Brother Ceramics Factory develops,
, you must never leave Qin Hai's guidance. This is a young man who can create miracles. His energy is much stronger than that of Liu Shuo and his dozen or so family members combined.
"Brother Liu, Sister Huang, Qin Hai always uses me and Shan'er as cheap labor, you have to make the decision for us!" Ning Jing pouted, acting cute to Liu Shuo and Huang Yanling. In the moment just now, she and Qin Shan were
I have been in the limelight enough, and now I feel happy, so I have to find someone to talk to.
"Xiao Ning, Xiao Qin, thank you for your hard work. After the exhibition the day after tomorrow, eldest sister will take you to visit Sao Paulo. Whatever you want to eat, eldest sister will buy you what you want." Huang Yanling stroked Ning Jing and Qin Shan's heads and promised with a smile.
.
"I want to eat imported chocolate!" Jing Jing shouted.
Qin Shan reminded in a low voice: "Can the chocolate we buy abroad be considered imported?"
"Why doesn't it count as imported? How can we eat it if it's not imported?" Ning Jing knew that she was wrong, but she refused to admit defeat and simply made a gesture of opening her mouth to show Qin Shan what "imported" meant.
"Okay, eldest sister will buy it for you! You can buy as much as you want." Huang Yanling said confidently.
"Sister Huang, are you sure you have so much foreign exchange?" Qin Hai asked with a smile. Everyone in the delegation only had a few dollars of pocket money issued by the state every day, which was used to buy souvenirs.
If it’s not enough, who would be willing to use it to buy food?
"This..." Huang Yanling was dumbfounded. With the dividends from her brother's ceramic factory, she was able to escape poverty in China, and it was not difficult to buy something to eat. But abroad, without foreign exchange, she could do nothing no matter how rich she was.
"So, two little girls, there will be no good results in suing me." Qin Hai proudly stretched out his hand and patted Qin Shan's head first. When he was about to pat Ning Jing's head, he finally remembered that the other party
After all, she is not her biological sister, so this kind of intimate gesture is inappropriate.
In the midst of embarrassment, Qin Shan covered her head and shouted: "Brother, how many times have I told you not to pat people on the head, otherwise they will make you stupid!" (To be continued...)
