Chen Ling uttered bold words and wanted a minister of a country to answer the question. Hu Xiaoxiao looked at Chen Ling with both eyes, and was a little worried that Chen Ling would not be able to do it.
Liang Bojun and Hou Yongsheng looked indifferent, waiting for Chen Ling’s actions. A $5 billion project is not a simple matter for anyone or company; when there is a little hope, the two of them are willing to participate in it.
Sun Jiaran is the most calm. He is also a veteran overseas. His follower Liang Bojun has also been in charge of specific business, and he is familiar with all kinds of routines. Only after the projects he had, the largest was only 200 million U.S. dollars. He has repeated the Algiers port project many times, thinking that he can handle the project by himself, but Chen Ling is just lucky.
Of course, good luck is also a kind of strength. At this moment, Sun Jiaran was waiting to see Chen Ling’s performance.
I saw Chen Ling picking up his mobile phone, looking at everyone, and asking, “I’ll put the hands-free on for a while. Minister French and English are fine. Mr. Liang, who do you think we can translate?”
“Mr Chen is testing our foreign language listening, haha…” Liang Bojun smiled, “Mr. Sun, are you coming?”
Sun Jiaran hasn’t done translation for many years. At the moment, he was named by the leader and had to go out and said, “Okay, speak English.”
Hu Xiaoxiao smiled at the corner of his mouth and quietly gave Chen Ling a blank look. Xiao Ling talks about hiding the needle in Mianli, and he must follow the rules in the future, and he is not allowed to talk to himself like this!
The call was quickly dialed, but a lady’s voice came.
“Hello, Mr. Chen, this is Melina.” The other party said in English, the sister of the President and the wife of the Deputy Prime Minister.
Chen Ling was a little surprised, turned off the hands-free, picked up the phone, exchanged a few words with her, and asked, “Madam, where is Mr. Deputy Prime Minister? I asked his friend to say a few words.”
“He is by my side. In the morning, he told me that he would talk to you on the phone today, so I waited specially and took the opportunity to say hello to you. Come to Cameroon as soon as possible, everything is waiting for you.” Melina said After that, I gave the phone to Samuel.
After a few words of greeting, Chen Ling pressed the speakerphone again and asked Samuel to speak to the people in the conference room in English.
At this time, people in the meeting room have different expressions. Liang Bojun has received a report from Mr. Feng and knows the identity of Mellina. Chen Ling has a direct phone call and can dial at any time. He can’t help but nod slightly. This project is promising.
Sun Jiaran hasn’t fully grasped the situation here, and even does not know Chen Ling’s feat in Cameroon. He has always held a cautious attitude towards Chen Ling. At this moment, he somewhat thinks Chen Ling is bluffing.
The people on Hou Yongsheng’s side have the most closed news. They and Chen Ling met for the first time. They are relatively unfamiliar with Cameroon except for the mining industry, so they are all embarrassed.
Samuel said: “Everyone, I am Samuel, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Transport of the Republic of Cameroon. Mr. Chen is a good friend of mine. He said that you have questions about the transportation infrastructure of the Mbaram Iron Mine. Questions, let me clarify. I am honored to ask me if you have any questions.”
Sun Jiaran was also not welcome. After a brief introduction, he asked: “Mr. Deputy Prime Minister, has this project been approved by the Ministry of Transport?”
“Not only has the project been approved by the Ministry of Transport, but it has also passed the review of the Congress and has been officially added to the annual priority project. This Mbaram iron ore project is very important to us in Cameroon. Your Excellency the President takes it very seriously and signed the presidential order. The Ministry of Transport took the lead in setting up an inter-ministerial committee to be responsible for the investment, development and operation of this project, and I will serve as the chairman of the committee…” Samuel said without hesitation and introduced the background of the project.
Sun Jiaran translated it to everyone and asked: “Mr. Deputy Prime Minister, I would like to ask if you support CS company’s investment in this project?”
As soon as this problem came up, Liang Bojun slightly turned his head and looked away from the phone on the table, avoiding eye contact with Chen Ling.
Hou Yongsheng was a little surprised. The CS company actually asked such a question in front of Chen Ling, and couldn’t help but discount Chen Ling’s control over the project.
Hu Xiaoxiao was very dissatisfied, and his eyes swept across several people in CS company.
Chen Ling next to her didn’t seem to be worried, but slightly nodded, as if he was sure that this question was asked well.
“Excuse me, who else is in the conference room?” Samuel asked.
“In addition to CS company in the meeting room today, there are representatives of Shuixi Iron and Steel.” Sun Jiaran replied.
Samuel said: “It is very good. There are companies in both mining and infrastructure. It will be a strong combination. However, Mr. Sun, I want to emphasize to you that you can sit in this conference room today. I have the opportunity to form a consortium to participate in our Mbaram iron ore project because of Mr. Chen’s recommendation. In other words, I will support the company recommended by Mr. Chen. I believe this will also be what the President meant.”
The conference room is so quiet that you can hear a needle drop.
Cameroon’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Transport made it very clear. I don’t know any of you here. I only recognize Mr. Chen. Your Excellency also said the same thing.
Hu Xiaoxiao kicked Chen Ling lightly, meaning that I didn’t talk early, which made me worry for nothing.
In fact, Chen Ling has run several projects and already knows what the people of these big companies are concerned about, so he deliberately arranged the meeting in the afternoon to make it easier to make calls with people abroad.
Chen Ling and Zhirkov also talked on the phone in advance and briefly introduced their own situation, and asked Deputy Prime Minister Samuel to prepare and support the meeting.
Since the deputy prime minister returned safely, not only his status has not been affected in any way, but he has real power and is ready to do a big job.
Sun Jiaran heard the words of the Deputy Prime Minister, even though he had been tested for a long time and had a thick skin like a city wall, he would inevitably get feverish. Liang Bojun was also a little uneasy. He glanced at Chen Ling secretly, seeing that he didn’t have any special reaction, and secretly let out a sigh of relief.
A few days ago, I just discussed with Liu Chongbi that we must make a good relationship with Chen Ling. I didn’t expect it to get immediate results. This big project fell from the sky.
Now he understands very well that with so many people in the CS company in Cameroon, the deputy prime minister just didn’t contact him. Instead, he went around the corner to find Chen Ling and sent the project to him. This is obviously to give Chen Ling a gift!
“Chen, there is nothing wrong with our CS company.” Liang Bojun proactively said to Chen Ling.
Chen Ling nodded and looked at Hou Yongsheng: “Mr. Hou, how about you?”
Hou Yongsheng didn’t want to miss this opportunity, saying: “I want to know how the Cameroonian government intends to develop this iron ore? What role can Shuixi Steel play in it?”
Samuel replied: “This iron ore has been fully licensed to the Sherlov Steel Company. I will ask the chairman of this company to answer this question. Mr. Zhirkov, come on.”
After a while, the English spoken by Zhirkov came on the phone: “We need a professional partner to invest in this iron ore and share minerals. I think Mr. Chen will introduce me to the best partner, and Mr. Chen I am also interested in investing, and I feel honored.”
All eyes in the conference room focused on Chen Ling.
