Chapter 375: Joints
Without staying long at Director Zhou, Muyang returned to the office, such a task may be a problem for others, but for himself who has space, it is the simplest task.
went home and told Xu Youshan about his business trip, the next day Muyang prepared another day of materials in the office, said goodbye to Xu Youshan on the third day, met with the delegation at the airport, and boarded the plane to the United States together.
There were a total of 12 people in the delegation, led by a vice governor surnamed Yang, accompanied by the director of the Xijiang Provincial Department of Science and Technology, and two staff members, and the rest were all bosses of science and technology companies in Xijiang Province, who were the focus of the investigation.
The purpose of this visit is mainly to broaden the horizons and conduct some technical negotiations with several companies in Silicon Valley, and Tay Giang Province is also interested in introducing a microelectronic chip production project, which is the itinerary of this trip.
It's only four days, and it's actually very tight.
In fact, this business delegation is also equipped with an English interpreter, but their delegation is an official business, and they can apply for the assistance of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
After 12 hours of flight, the plane finally landed, and an attaché from the San Francisco Consulate came to pick up the plane, and the group stayed directly in the hotel.
Mu Yang chatted with the staff who came to pick up the airport for a while, after all, they were all staff of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, so they were naturally closer.
Next, their trip will be contacted by several inspection companies from the United States, and the inspection will officially begin tomorrow.
Muyang's heart has always been on the task assigned by Director Zhou. But after a night, no one came to look for him. The next day, the investigation began, and I first went to a high-tech chip manufacturer, mainly producing memory chips for flash memory on USB drives. This is not a high-end thing now, there are factories in this area in China, but this company has its own technical patents and the latest technology, but it is more advanced than domestic flash memory manufacturers.
Muyang does a good job of accompanying the translator, compared with Muyang, the level of the translator brought by Xijiang Province is obviously worse, and sometimes the translation is very scratching his head for some particularly professional technical terms.
Muyang finally took over the translation work, which made the communication much smoother.
In private, the translator named Xu Guozhi thanked Muyang. "I did my homework before I came, but I was cramming, after all, there are millions of words in English, and it's impossible to memorize them all."
"Brother Mu, you speak this English and get so many words, can they learn it by themselves?" Xu Guozhi complained.
"The Longman Advanced American Dictionary generally contains 8 to 100,000 words. The famous Oxford Dictionary contains more than 600,000 words. The largest of them, Websters, contains almost a million words. ”
"Hehe, in fact, we have a lot of Chinese characters. What we usually use is only two or three thousand words. But "Cihai" contains 14,872 Chinese characters; The Kangxi Dictionary, compiled in 1716, has 47,035 Chinese characters; The 1994 book "The Sea of Chinese Characters" has 87,019 Chinese characters; If these words become words, then it will be a sea of words, much more than English words, so foreigners learning Chinese is scratching their heads. Muyang said with a smile.
"Yes, let those gringos taste our kanji." Xu Guozhi said hatefully.
On the third day, the investigation continued, but still no one took the initiative to contact Muyang.
Muyang was a little anxious. I don't know what happened, but the task he received was just waiting for the other party to take the initiative to contact him, and he didn't know anything about the contact person, and he didn't know how to find the other party. So we can only wait.
On the fourth day, which is also the last day of the delegation, after the inspection is completed today, we will board the plane and return home early tomorrow morning.
Back to the hotel in the evening, everyone also held a small banquet in the restaurant and drank some wine, after all, they will get on the plane tomorrow, and when they wait for the plane, they will naturally go their separate ways, and there is no time to gather, so get together in advance.
Muyang also drank a little wine, and suddenly, his mobile phone rang, he picked it up and saw that it was a local landline phone number, Muyang went out and picked up the phone in a relatively remote place.
"Celtwin Neighborhood, Bereka Coffee, I'm at table 6." The other party hung up the phone immediately after speaking.
Muyang raised his hand to look at his watch, it was already 8 o'clock, Muyang did not hesitate, nor did he greet everyone who was still drinking, he went out of the hotel directly, stopped a taxi and went to the junction location.
Muyang got off the bus, the neighborhood here was still relatively lively at this time, and there were many pedestrians and tourists on the street.
But after Muyang got out of the car, he suddenly had a strange feeling.
He didn't stop or look around, he quietly wiped his hand on his face, and then walked into Bereka Coffee, but instead of going straight to table 6, he sat somewhere else.
At the moment when he touched his face just now, Mu Yang had already made a change in his appearance.
A waiter came over, and Mu Yang asked for a cup of local handmade coffee in a local San Francisco accent, but his eyes unintentionally glanced at table No. 6.
A Chinese man of about thirty years old sat there, with coffee and wheat donuts on the table, and his eyes were very attentive to a magazine on the table, as if the slightly noisy atmosphere in the café would not affect him at all.
Muyang stood up and went to the bathroom, taking the opportunity to scan the entire café, but he didn't find anything unusual, could it be that he was too suspicious.
After Muyang came back, the waiter brought something, Muyang took a sip of coffee, it was very fragrant and creamy, and the taste was very special, but Muyang still preferred to drink pure coffee.
Walked to table No. 6 with coffee and sat down, and then said: "Is it Chinese, it's rare to see a fellow, by the way, what time is it?" ”
The other party glanced up at Mu Yang, then took out his mobile phone and entered a set of numbers on it, put it on the table and pushed it over, Mu Yang picked up the mobile phone, also entered a set of numbers, and then pushed it back.
The other party picked up the phone and looked at it, then put it back in his pocket.
The other party handed Mu Yang a small cloth bag, Mu Yang touched it with his hand, it seemed to be a mobile hard drive, Mu Yang didn't ask anything else, and put it directly in his pocket, but it had been transferred to the space in an instant. (To be continued.) )
PS: At the end of the month, ask for a monthly pass.
