After the purser left, the plane took off very quickly.
In the cabin, Du Yitao, Sun Zhi, and Li Ru were invited to hold an internal seminar together after the plane stabilized.
The main issues discussed are, of course, some of the issues that need to be paid attention to during this trip.
On the plane, the business class was largely completely occupied by delegations.
The few bigwigs sitting at the front and the entourage behind were separated into two areas by two rows of empty positions, and the meeting didn't affect it at all.
After the big guys were seated, Du Yitao, the head of the delegation who was sitting in the middle, spoke first.
"Chairman Mao and Chairman Wu, this time our delegation's trip is with an important task, and you two should know this better than me."
After Du Yitao finished saying this, Mao Zhichun and Wu Jianlong glanced at each other, and said: "Understand, Director Du, this negotiation with Skoda Automobile Company is very important, we all know it."
Du Yitao sighed, turned his head to look at Zhao Guoyang and said: "Researcher Zhao, this trip to Prague, in addition to the acquisition of Skoda Automobile, also involved some other business matters. ” "You are the chief adviser of our delegation, and we may have to listen to you for many things."
Speaking of this, Du Yitao smiled and said: "Researcher Zhao's ability in the machinery industry, several of us have heard of it for a long time. ” "I just don't know if you, Researcher Zhao, have some understanding of the cultural history, business and trade of the Czech Slovak country?"
After listening to the big guy's question, Zhao Guoyang nodded and said: "Director Du, don't worry about this, I still know some about the basic situation of the Czech Slovak country." ” Zhao Guoyang's words are not bragging, in fact, before he was reborn, he went to Slovak several times for visits and investigations.
Although the country of Czech Slovak is not large, it has always had a very developed industry.
Before World War II, it was the seventh largest industrial country in the world, after the United States, Russia, Germania, England, France, and the Apennines.
Compared with the island country, which is a new industrial country, it is even stronger.
Especially in the automotive industry and machine tool industry, Czech Snowcheck has a world-class level.
Zhao Guoyang went to inspect several times at that time, that is, to discuss cooperation with a machine tool company in Prague.
At this time, since Director Du asked about this question, Zhao Guoyang answered it realistically.
Originally, Zhao Guoyang's answer was very objective and not mixed with any exaggeration.
But he, a young man in his early twenties, is also so confident about things outside of his own work, and he is somewhat dismissive when he listens to others.
As the director of the European Department of the Ministry of Foreign Trade, Sun Zhi has always been a person who thinks highly of himself.
Although the old leader mentioned Zhao Guoyang in front of him several times, Sun Zhi's heart has never taken it seriously.
In his opinion, this young "Researcher Zhao" may indeed have two brushes in the automobile industry and machinery industry.
However, it would be an exaggeration to say that he was also proficient in foreign trade and commerce between the two countries.
After Zhao Guoyang said these words calmly, Sun Zhi's eyebrows twisted slightly, and he opened his voice: "Researcher Zhao, I don't doubt what you mean. ” "It's just, with all due respect, it seems that you are also visiting the country of Czech Slovak for the first time."
After listening to Director Sun's words, the current bigwigs gradually put away their whispered voices and turned their eyes to him.
All of you here are people who have been trained for a long time, and they naturally understood the meaning of Sun Zhi's words in an instant.
There is no doubt that Director Sun really doubts how much Zhao Guoyang knows about the cultural history and business environment of the Czech country.
Although he was somewhat embarrassed to ask, there was nothing wrong with it from a reasonable point of view.
After all, everyone is now in the same boat, if Zhao Guoyang, the "chief consultant", does not have real talent and learning, then whether it is Director Du or Sun Zhi, they can prepare early.
You know, on the side of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Foreign Trade, there must be permanent representatives in Prague.
On the side of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in addition to the usual ambassador to the Czech Republic, there is also a minister who presides over the permanent work of the embassy.
Of course, commercial counselors, economic counselors, agricultural counselors, science and technology counselors, education counselors, cultural counselors and other relevant personnel are also indispensable.
Among them, the commercial counselor, the economic counselor, and the agricultural counselor are all under the dual leadership of the foreign affairs department and the foreign trade department.
Now Sun Zhi is not at ease with Zhao Guoyang's ability in business and trade, and wants to know more about it.
If Zhao Guoyang really fails, the delegation will ask a few people from the embassy to assist the delegation in its daily work during its stay in Prague.
After Sun Zhi asked this question, Du Yitao, Li Ru, and Wu Jianlong all threw a puzzled look at Zhao Guoyang.
Although the three of them also know a little about Zhao Guoyang, they still hear more about his ability from the mouths of others.
Especially in terms of business and trade, no one has ever heard of the special features of this "Researcher Zhao", so there is naturally some hesitation at this time.
The only one in the field who has full confidence in Zhao Guoyang is Chairman Mao of Songqi Group.
Mao Zhichun and Zhao Guoyang knew each other the earliest and had a very deep understanding of him.
Whether it was the last trip to Samba or the several plans in his own factory, Zhao Guoyang played an important role in it.
Therefore, Chairman Mao firmly believes in Zhao Guoyang's ability in business and finance.
After several bigwigs turned their eyes to him at the same time, Zhao Guoyang took a sip of coffee and said slowly: "Director Sun, it is indeed the first time I have been to Czech Slovak, but this does not mean that I don't know much about this country. ” "There is a saying that Xiucai knows the world without going out, I dare not say how deep my understanding of this country is, at least, there will be no problems with basic communication" Listening to Zhao Guoyang's confident words, Sun Zhi's brows tightened a little tighter.
Of course, he knew that the other party should be capable.
But no matter how capable you are, in front of us diplomats who have traveled from south to north, you should also speak in a low-key manner, right?

Although he was already a little unhappy in his heart, Sun Zhi still didn't show it on the surface.
He pondered for a moment, and then asked with a smile, "Researcher Zhao is full of confidence in himself, which is a good thing." ” "If you don't mind, I have a few questions here that I would like to ask.
Researcher Zhao, see if you can give us an answer a little?"
As the head of the European Department of the Ministry of Foreign Trade, Sun Zhi must be very good at understanding the countries of Eastern Europe and analyzing the trade of these countries.
How could the question he ask be so simple?
This big guy said politely on the surface, but in this tone, there was obviously a hint of Zhao Guoyang.
Originally, everyone thought that Zhao Guoyang would not agree easily, but who knew that after listening to the other party's words, Zhao Guoyang sat up straight, nodded disapprerovingly, and said: "Director Sun has something to say, if you can answer, I will do my best."
Sun Zhi's eyes froze, and then he nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, okay, then I'll be disrespectful."
Sun Zhi took a sip of strong tea and said slowly: "First of all, it's a language problem. ” "I heard Minister Yao say that Researcher Zhao is not only proficient in English, but also has deep attainments in Portuguese, French and other languages."
"So, in the country of Slovak in the Czech Republic, which language is commonly used, researcher Zhao, do you know that walking on the road, can you communicate freely with the ordinary people of this country?"
Hearing this question, Du Yitao and Li Ru glanced at each other and nodded secretly.
Indeed, language is always the biggest problem when visiting an external country.
Especially when visiting Eastern European countries such as Czech Slovak and Serbia, the complexity of the language is even more troublesome.
Although Zhao Guoyang knows English, French, and Portuguese, these three foreign languages, after all, still belong to the mainstream language family, and they are not too shocking.
But how much does he know about the languages of Eastern European countries?
This is also something that everyone is curious about.
After listening to Director Sun's question, Zhao Guoyang answered calmly without much thought: "Director Sun, I still have something to do with the language of the Czech Snovark. ” "There are two languages spoken in the country of Czech Slovak.
They are Czech and Slovak.
Together with Polish, Sorbian, etc., they belong to the Slavic language family, the West Slavic branch" Sun Zhi didn't expect that this Zhao Guoyang really understood this, and the muscles on his face trembled a little at the moment.
Zhao Guoyang didn't notice the change in the other party's expression, he continued to take care of himself and said: "Since the Czech language is the majority of the Czech language in the Czech country, I will just use the Czech language to say, Director Sun, you don't think it's okay."
"Uh, good" Sun Zhi was startled by Zhao Guoyang's sudden question, and nodded subconsciously.
Zhao Guoyang raised two fingers and said, "Czech is a very difficult language to learn.
One reason for this is the abundance of the Czech language. ” "According to statistics, there are more than 200 forms of Czech, which is dozens of times better than English."
"These different forms in the Czech language allow the words in a sentence to be freely combined without worrying about word order."
"On the one hand, it's a feature of the Czech language; On the other hand, this linguistic freedom also creates difficulties for scholars of these languages. ” Speaking of this, Zhao Guoyang paused slightly, and then smiled: "However, you don't have to be frightened by my words, in fact, the standard language of Czech has a written form and a spoken form. ” "In Prague, the common Czech language is commonly used in everyday oral communication, which is characteristic of the Bohemian dialect and has a much simpler conjugation than the standard language":
