Carbon fiber has been invented for decades, and it has always been in a leading position among high-end materials. It is very famous and has a wide range of uses, including aerospace, missiles and rockets, automobiles, railways, and sporting goods.
China has re-invested in carbon fiber since 2000, but the overall level is still lagging behind. In particular, products with top grades and special-shaped structures are completely blank, and they have to rely on smuggling to get some.
These high-end products are mainly used in cutting-edge products such as satellites, and there is no way to use them. Firstly, they are too expensive, and secondly, they are out of stock.
When he learned that Zhou Qingfeng had obtained a batch of high-grade carbon fibers from Japan, Xiao Jinlang immediately became interested. Especially since there were a lot of products with certain grades that were restricted for export, it was even more rare. As for a loan..., this guy...
It costs 5 billion, or US dollars!
"The country's foreign exchange reserves are so huge that they don't need to be used in vain. This is a rare opportunity. I finally managed to get Toray's top management to obey them, and almost all of their extra production for half a year was wiped out. I can only use it if I want it next time."
It will take a few months." Zhou Qingfeng said plausibly.
But Xiao Jinlang couldn't make the decision even if it cost him five billion dollars. He could only report it to the central government. The great elders of the central government were used to big news coming from Zhou Qingfeng every once in a while.
This time when he heard that Zhou Qingfeng was going to harm the Japanese again, the elder couldn't help but asked with a smile: "How are you going to transport thousands of tons of smuggled goods back?"
"Let's transport it by sea!" Zhou Qingfeng felt that this was as simple as transporting water by himself.
Xiao Jinlang, who was in charge of delivering the message, was very angry, "You think the Japanese Customs, the Metropolitan Police, and the Maritime Self-Defense Force are just decorations! The Americans have been blocking this kind of smuggling channels. Otherwise, how can we do anything better?"
Is this stuff so hard? A lot of people are lost every year doing it.”
But after all, Xiao Jinlang was really attracted by the batch of carbon fiber in Zhou Qingfeng's hands. This is almost the amount of smuggling usually carried out by the national security system in one or two years. If he really gets it, not only will the domestic high-end manufacturing industry benefit,
National security also means losing fewer people.
"Uh... let me think of a way to solve this. It shouldn't be difficult to solve." Zhou Qingfeng thought about it for a moment. It's still a bit risky to ship it directly. After all, when you encounter that blind customs officer who wants to do random inspections, could he murder others?
The whole customs?
"Actually, it will be safer if you have official channels." Xiao Jinlang reminded implicitly. When it comes to smuggling these days, the best way is to make illegal things legal.
There are no official channels. The Ishii Society has contacts with many politicians, but it is difficult to say that such contacts can guarantee the safety of thousands of tons of prohibited materials. Zhou Qingfeng thought about it for a long time before he remembered that he seemed to actually know a mayor-level figure—
—Your Excellency Hashimoto Jiro!
After the previous "chimpanzee" incident in Tokyo, Zhou Qingfeng went to the United States. He didn't pay much attention to the situation of the Hashimoto family, but this time he remembered that he still had such a line.
He called a taxi, reported a familiar address, and headed all the way to Soka City. However, when Zhou Qingfeng came to the door of Hashimoto's sushi restaurant again, he found that the place was closed and not popular.
"Ah..., Lin Sang!" Mr. Judi from the flower shop opposite suddenly jumped out. He was very familiar with Zhou Qingfeng wearing sunglasses and a baseball cap, "Is it really you? It's so surprising.
"
"It's Mr. Kikuchi, hello!" Zhou Qingfeng nodded slightly in greeting and asked: "The Hashimoto family..."
"Ah..., this scum Hashimoto has moved away. He has forgotten the promise he made to us when he ran for mayor. He is no longer the passionate little citizen who tried to change. He has become a member of the bureaucracy.
, distanced ourselves from neighbors like us who have known each other for decades.”
To be able to let the reserved Japanese speak so loudly, they must be full of resentment and have nowhere to vent. Seeing that Mr. Kikuchi was so angry, Zhou Qingfeng was a little embarrassed. Jiro Hashimoto's ability is only to open a sushi restaurant, so let him go
Isn't being the mayor a joke?
It just so happens that this joke was made by Zhou Qingfeng.
"Hehehe..." Zhou Qingfeng scratched his head in embarrassment, "It seems that Mr. Hashimoto Jiro's governance is very problematic!"
"Isn't that right? He did nothing after he came to power. He was just a rubber stamp." Mr. Judi kept talking, sternly reprimanding his neighbor who pushed him to power in the first place.
"Then the Hashimoto family moved away?"
"Yes. Their family moved to the official residence in Soka City."
"Oh..., can you tell me the address?"
Saying goodbye to the resentful Mr. Kikuchi, Zhou Qingfeng took a taxi to find the current residence of the Hashimoto family. This is a very quiet small villa. A wrought iron fence covered with plants separates the inside and outside. From the door, you can see a courtyard with a cobblestone path.
It looks very high-end when you go up there.
As soon as the doorbell rang, a forty-year-old woman in kimono came to open the door. After looking at the strange-looking Zhou Qingfeng, she asked very warily: "Who are you looking for?"
"I'm looking for Mr. Jiro Hashimoto."
"Mayor Hashimoto works in the government during the day. If you want to see him, please make an appointment. This is a private residence and no outsiders are allowed."
The kimonoed woman was about to close the door after saying that. Zhou Qingfeng immediately held it in his hand and said, "I can also ask Mrs. Hashimoto or Miss Nako."
This time the kimonoed woman was even more confused, but she still maintained the minimum courtesy and frowned and asked: "Who are you?"
Thinking that everyone in the Hashimoto family knew him, Zhou Qingfeng simply took off his hat and sunglasses, "I am Victor Hugo."
The woman in kimono looked at Zhou Qingfeng and was stunned for a long time. Finally, she nodded and turned around to report. But she was far away, and Zhou Qingfeng vaguely heard the other party whisper, "The rumors turned out to be true. The Hashimotos really know the actor Wei Wei."
Quedo Hugo's super star.'
Not long after, he heard the sound of wooden clogs in the courtyard, and he was almost trotting. Zhou Qingfeng thought in his mind that this must be the lively Hashimoto Nai, but he appeared wrapped in a cloud of fragrant wind.
It was Kyoko who was wearing a beautiful kimono, with a springy face and a smile on her eyebrows.
"Lin Sang...!" The mature woman almost threw herself in front of Zhou Qingfeng. She finally stopped to worry about the servants coming behind her. But her voice was full of charm and charm, and her eyes were filled with all kinds of charm.
This sweet voice made Zhou Qingfeng feel hot all over, and a burst of anger was aroused. Scenes of the two's affair two or three months ago kept emerging. This woman looked shy and gentle, but when she was passionate, she turned into a ball of fire.
!
"Madam, long time no see." Zhou Qingfeng smiled and nodded.
Kyoko immediately curled her lips slightly and said dissatisfiedly: "I used to call her Kyoko when I was sneaking around late at night; now it's not long before I call her madam."
"Madam, this is a formal visit."
"Are all men so heartless and hypocritical? People have done so many shameful things for you, but you just walked away. I don't care what you do this time, you must make it up to me starting tonight."
"Ah..., that's not good! Madam, please don't do this."
