Chapter 112 The American fellow has a strong accent
In order to welcome the game makers from China, George rented a bus and took everyone back to the hotel.
A sumptuous welcome banquet followed. Seeing such a warm reception from the host, He Chang stood up resolutely, holding a wine glass, despite being tired from the journey.
“On behalf of the China Games Overseas Steering Group, I would like to thank the American Valve Company for their warm hospitality.” Director He said in passable English, “I hope our cooperation will go smoothly, cheers!”< br>
Everyone also raised their glasses enthusiastically, "I wish you smooth cooperation and cheers!"
After finishing the drink, He Chang had no intention of sitting down, "Let me just say a few words..."
Damn!
The eyes of everyone from China went dark, and their eyes glowed green wherever they looked.
What time has it been and you still want to come here?
But when the leader gets interested, you have to endure it no matter how hungry you are.
Qin Shaoyan winked at George, who immediately clapped when the director paused, interrupting his speech.
George took the lead regardless, and everyone else pretended to be stupid and started eating.
Seeing that the atmosphere of his speech was ruined, He Xin couldn't help but get angry at George, so he stood there awkwardly.
Qin Shaoyan quickly stood up and pushed He Xin into his seat, saying, "These foreigners don't understand He Xin's kindness at all. They are so rude."
"Ahem, that's right. You can't say that." He Xin argued, "It may be cultural differences."
"That's fine. You've been traveling all the way. Eat more and recharge your batteries." Qin Shaoyan said with a smile, "Only after you have taken a good rest can you devote yourself to work better."
Faced with such a situation, Ho Chang can only do what he is good at and concentrate on tasting exotic food.
After dinner, everyone returned to their rooms to rest.
Qin Shaoyan took out his cell phone and called Director Chen in China, "Brother Chen, it's me, Xiao Qin."
Chen Peng was a little surprised, then frowned and asked: " Why did you remember to call me? Did something happen? ”
"No, no." Qin Shaoyan said with a smile, "I just want to report to Brother Chen that he is safe. Everything is going well so far."
"Oh, that's good." Then Chen Peng fell into silence.
"Brother Chen, do you know much about where to grow?" Qin Shaoyan asked tentatively.
Chen Peng immediately became alert, "Why do you ask this?"
"Isn't this the first time I've worked with Mr. He? I can't figure out his temperament. I'm not sure." Qin Shaoyan said with a smile, "I have to find out what his hobbies are so that I can be targeted."
Chen Peng suddenly felt a little emotional in his heart. He didn't expect Xiao Qin to be very affectionate and righteous.
"Okay Xiao Qin, just do your job well and don't worry about anything else." Chen Peng said with a smile.
Qin Shaoyan's heart changed and he asked tentatively: "Where does this relationship originate...isn't it more difficult?"
Chen Peng chuckled and said lightly: "Well, That's it. "
Hearing this, Qin Shaoyan was completely relieved. Even if he has a background, he is not necessarily tougher than Brother Chen.
"Then why didn't the guidance working group ask you, Brother Chen?" Qin Shaoyan continued to ask.
"Don't think so much, the reasons here are a bit complicated." Chen Peng sighed.
After a few seconds of silence, Chen Peng suddenly said, "He Chang has several business trips to Europe."
"But it is said that he has left the group without permission several times, at night No destination."
Qin Shaoyan's eyes lit up, "Oh, okay, I understand."
"What do you understand?" Chen Peng was a little shocked, "You work hard and don't mess around."
"Brother Chen, I am an upright and law-abiding citizen." Qin Shaoyan was dumbfounded, "What can I do?"< br>
"By the way, Brother Chen, Mr. Zhaifeng has never been to the United States."
"As far as I know, no." Chen Peng replied in the affirmative.
“That’s good, that’s good.”
Qin Shaoyan smiled and hung up the phone. As long as this person has hobbies, he will have weaknesses.
He was also worried that Zhan Zhang was an old man and would not be able to get started.
Qin Shaoyan doesn't need to do anything else, just wait.
……
The next day.
Under the leadership of Qin Shaoyan, the Chinese game industry delegation entered the V agency headquarters in a mighty manner. The enthusiastic George took everyone around and explained some of V’s experiences in recent years and some interesting things during development.
Then he took everyone around and introduced V’s work and development process.
People in the game industry listened with great interest, and from time to time they raised some questions to discuss with George.
Faced with the strong communication and learning atmosphere, He Chang showed no interest and just took a look around.
So Qin Shaoyan immediately suggested: "Let them communicate and learn here first, and we will directly negotiate with the V agency senior management over there, so that neither party is delayed."
He nodded with satisfaction and praised Said: "Xiao Qin's suggestion is very good, it is more efficient, so let's do it like this."
Qin Shaoyan asked tentatively: "How about we find a translator and then talk about it?"
He Chang confidently waved his hand, "Where can I find a translator? I have gone abroad for business several times and never needed an interpreter."
A staff member flattered him and said, "He majored in English when he was in college. Then It’s spoken well by foreigners.”
"I will directly contact the top management of V agency."
"Xiao Qin." The director stopped Qin Shaoyan again and said earnestly, "I will take the lead in the negotiations in a while, and you can help me." That's fine, don't interrupt at will."
"Okay." Qin Shaoyan smiled and nodded.
The director told the staff next to him, "You must maintain your grace during negotiations and don't argue with the other party. The other party's conditions are more or less the same."
"If the other party's conditions are too harsh What to do? ”
"Then let's argue with each other, but I think the other party's conditions are about 70 or 80%. It doesn't matter if we make a little less, there is no cost anyway." The director said slowly, "Ensuring the successful completion of the overseas mission is the first priority , you can leave the other details."
Qin Shaoyan's mouth twitched when he heard this, but he said nothing.
The game I have worked so hard to develop overseas is to find a way for stand-alone games to survive, not for you to sell your profits in exchange for your own merit.
Qin Shaoyan smiled and gestured to George, and George replied with an OK.
Soon, Qin Shaoyan and the guidance working group were brought into the conference room.
As soon as they were seated, two people in suits and leather shoes with briefcases came into the conference room and sat directly opposite Qin Shaoyan and He Chang.
The two of them started without any greetings. The man named Mr. Willis spoke first, and a lot of terms came out of his mouth.
Originally, Mr. He boasted that he was good at English and had a confident expression, but he was stunned after hearing a few words.
What is the other person saying?
Is this English?
So what did I learn?
The same goes for the two staff who followed Mr. He. They were all stunned. They stared at each other.
Qin Shaoyan almost lost his composure after listening for a while. He, a person who is pretty good at business English, didn't understand it.
The Willis that George found was a lawyer. He would recite the statutes and talk about the laws of each state when he opened his mouth.
The other guy is a programmer. He doesn’t talk about the law. He starts talking about programming terms.
Qin Shaoyan accompanied the director and was tortured for two hours. Finally he couldn't bear it anymore and asked to adjourn the meeting temporarily.
Coming out of the conference room, the director wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief, his face darkened and he said nothing.
Qin Shaoyan sighed, "These Americans speak with too strong accents and are not standard at all. I think it's better to find a local translator."
What's going on this time? No longer refusing, he nodded.
In the afternoon, professional translators were in place and the working group sat back in the conference room.
This time, with the help of a professional translator, the problem of the American fellow's heavy accent was finally solved.
He Zhang finally understood what the other person was saying, and immediately frowned, "Why do you keep talking about legal issues?"
Qin Shaoyan quickly explained, "There are many laws in the United States. The laws of each state are also different. When we publish the game, we must pay attention to where the law cannot be violated to avoid unnecessary trouble."
Staff Xiao Wang frowned, "There are fifty states of law. Are they all different? Isn’t this a mess?”
The local director glared at him and said dissatisfied: “What nonsense are you talking about? The United States is a country governed by law. We should follow the local customs when we arrive in the United States. ”
Xiao Wang immediately closed his mouth.
Qin Shaoyan nodded with a smile, "Yes, yes, that's what America is like."
There will be more at night. Regarding the issue of explosive updates... I have not recovered from my yang, and I am already working hard to update. I beg for your understanding. My wife has the flu and is on a drip, and I still have to find time to take care of the kids.
