Rebirth: Rising Hong Kong

Chapter 149 0148 [Beautiful Black Boy, Please Stay! 】

Just as Dai Fengnian was imparting life lessons to his younger sister, Dai Fengni, the doorbell of the villa rang.

The housekeeper went to open the door, and was startled when she opened the door. There was a black man standing outside.

The black man is wearing a black suit and a black top hat, holding a civilized stick, holding a bottle of red wine in the other hand, opening his mouth and grinning.

"Ghost!" The housekeeper almost jumped up in fright.

"Sorry, I'm not a ghost! My name is Tatar, and I'm from France. I'm looking for Dai Fengnian, Mr. Dai!" the black man said in fluent Cantonese.

The housekeeper panicked and reported to Dai Fengnian.

When Dai Fengnian heard that the other party's name was "Tatar", he hurried over to meet him in person.

Seeing her elder brother's appearance like this, Dai Fengni couldn't help asking: "Brother, who is he?"

"Tatar is one of my distinguished guests. He is the person in charge of Evian Mineral Water in Hong Kong. This time, Dai's Firm will cooperate with him to represent Evian Mineral Water."

Dai Fengnian looked very excited, and he was completely different from the calm and composed him just now.

At least Dai Fengni had never seen her brother so happy.

Evian mineral water has a history of hundreds of years. Since Napoleon III of France, this ice-pure mineral water has been recognized by many high-class people in France.

In 1860, the Kingdom of Sardinia ceded Savoy and Nice to France, and they became the two provinces of France. Evian is the northernmost town of the two provinces. In 1962, the provisional governments of France and Algeria signed the famous "Evian Ceasefire Agreement" here.

Three years later, in 1965, the production plant of Evian Mineral Water was formally established, and Evian Mineral Water began to spread from France to the world.

Now this kind of mineral water has occupied the market in France, the United States, the United Kingdom and other major developed countries and regions, and its sales are excellent.

This time, Tatar came to Hong Kong on behalf of Evian to find partners and develop the Hong Kong market together.

Dai Fengnian is a business genius. From the very beginning, he saw the bright future of Evian mineral water. Coupled with the special environment in Hong Kong, if this mineral water is introduced, it will definitely be welcomed by the big guys, especially the upper class in Hong Kong.

That's why Dai Fengnian was so excited, he wanted to run over to meet Tatar in person.

"Dear Mr. Tatar, hello!" Dai Fengnian said in his not-so-fluent French.

Compared with English, French is a bit more difficult to learn. Dai Fengnian also worked overtime to learn a few polite expressions in order to meet Tatar.

Hearing the familiar French, Tatar smiled happily, took off his top hat, bowed slightly to Dai Fengnian in a very gentlemanly manner, and said, "Thank you, dear Mr. Dai!"

After speaking, he handed over the red wine he was holding and said, "This is my first visit, I brought a bottle of red wine from Bordeaux, France as a gift, please don't mind!"

Dai Fengnian hurriedly took the red wine with both hands, glanced at it, and praised: "Mr. Tatar, you have a heart, I like drinking red wine very much!"

Then he handed the red wine to the housekeeper beside him and said, "Mr. Tatar, you are so polite, and you have come from a long way..."

Dai Fengnian suddenly felt that his French was not enough. After all, he did a sudden study and didn't accumulate much vocabulary. Now he was a bit stuck trying to express his meaning.

Tatar was very understanding, and said in Cantonese: "Mr. Dai, I know a little Cantonese, why don't we talk in Cantonese."

Dai Fengnian laughed: "That's great! My French is a monk halfway through, and the more I speak it, the more awkward it becomes! I just didn't expect Mr. Tatar to speak Cantonese so well!"

Tatar said proudly: "I love China and Chinese culture, so when I was in France, I followed many kind Chinese people and learned a lot of Chinese, including Cantonese, Northeastern dialect, and Sichuan dialect..."

After finishing speaking, Tatar said a few more words, "Which corner are you from? You son of a bitch!"

Dai Fengnian could only smile awkwardly: "Mr. Tatar, you are really versatile!"

"Thank you for the compliment, Dai! In fact, many people have said that about me—er, don't you invite me in? Wouldn't it be nice for us to stand at this door together?"

"Oh, I'm sorry, please come in quickly!" Dai Fengnian hastily invited the other party into the living room.

As soon as Tatar entered the living room, he immediately saw Dai Fengni sitting on the sofa, and he was astonished, "God, this lady is—"

Dai Fengnian hurriedly introduced, "This is my younger sister, Dai Fengni."

Dai Fengni had to get up and greet Tatar, "Hello, Mr. Tatar!"

"I'm fine, thank you, pretty girl!" Tatar looked at Dai Fengni obsessively, and when he saw Dai Fengni stretching out her hand, he grabbed her fingertips and was about to kiss the back of her hand very gentlemanly.

Dai Fengni was taken aback. Although she knew that this was a courtesy of foreigners, she had always been unimpressed with ghosts, especially when he was a black man whose hair was darker than coal.

Dai Fengni quickly withdrew her hand, "Please sit down!"

Tatar didn't mind her dodging just now at all, but was disappointed that she didn't kiss the back of the goddess' hand.

After the two parties sat down, Dai Fengnian asked the housekeeper to serve tea.

The housekeeper was well-informed in Dai's house, but this was the first time she saw a black man at such a close distance. Facing Tatar, who grinned at her from time to time and showed his white teeth, she still had lingering fears.

In desperation, Dai Fengnian let the housekeeper go down first, so as not to be rude, and asking Dai Fengni to help pour the tea for the time being is also a respect for the distinguished guests.

"Mr. Tatar, this time I invite you to my house as a guest instead of discussing affairs in the company, do you mind?"

"How could it be? I really like this way of talking about business, it's natural and comfortable!"

"That's good. I don't know if Dai's signed a cooperation agreement with your company this time. What else do you want?"

Tatar changed his smiling face just now, and became serious. He skillfully picked up the tea bowl in front of him, squeezed the tea cover with one hand, and pulled the tea noodles with the tea cover in a decent manner, and took a sip. Then he raised his head and said: "Our company's requirements are very simple, that is, we must enter the sales channels of your Hong Kong upper class and middle-class people!"

After a pause, "So I wonder if Mr. Dai has confidence in this?"

Dai Fengnian laughed, and said arrogantly: "In Hong Kong, except for our Dai Group, no one else is qualified to promise such a thing!"

"There are more than 2,000 stores in Hong Kong, and our Dai's has more than 300, and most of them are concentrated in Hong Kong and Kowloon, targeting the upper class and middle class."

"In addition, Dai's also has a huge number of other sales channels, covering middle, high and low areas, and the target customer groups are also middle, high and low customer groups. It can be said that there are only unexpected things, and there is nothing that Dai's can't do!"

"So Mr. Tata, don't worry, your company's choice is absolutely right, and I can help Evian fully open the Hong Kong market!"

Tatar also smiled, "I like your answer very much, so I hope we can cooperate happily!"

Dai Fengnian didn't expect Tatar to be so forthright, and immediately became happy, and hurriedly reached out to shake hands with Tatar: "Happy cooperation!"

...

Tatar stayed at Dai's house for about half an hour, and the two sides discussed some details about the mutual cooperation agreement.

Dai Fengni was by her side the whole time.

Dai Fengnian also intended for her to learn, and from time to time he explained to her with examples in front of him.

Soon, the discussion is over.

Tatar got up to say goodbye. He was very eager to kiss the back of the beautiful hand of the goddess Dai Fengni when he parted, but unfortunately, there was still no chance.

After Tatar left, Dai Fengnian told his sister that kissing the back of the hand is just a traditional French etiquette, why are you so resistant?

Dai Fengni curled her lips, "Even if I let the ghost kiss, I won't let him kiss! It's as black as coal!"

Regarding this, Dai Fengnian could only shake his head.

Here, Tatar left Dai's house and went out of Dai's villa, only to see that the street was very lively.

There are stalls selling bamboo cane tea, some selling Xirong with a load, and some roadside stalls helping people shave their heads, all of which make Tatar very interesting.

After playing around for a while, Tatar put on a top hat, swung a civilized stick, and reached out to hail a rickshaw as the Romans did. He just stepped on one foot and was about to get in the car and leave, when a voice said: "That pretty black boy, please stay." !"

Tatar couldn't help but look back, only to see a handsome man in a white suit looking at him.

Tatar spoke Cantonese: "Which one are you?"

The man in the white suit took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Tatar, with a bright smile on his face: "Hello, Shi Zhijian!"
