In the reception room, Lin Dong looked at the two people in front of him with a calm expression.

Ji Yao sat next to Lin Dong with an unhappy expression on her face.

The two people opposite, one of whom looked about forty-five years old, looked smart and capable, about the same height as Lin Dong, wearing a jacket on the upper body and casual pants on the lower body, looked like an ordinary staff member of the agency.

But Lin Dong knew that he was not ordinary at all. This was a director of the Foreign Trade Department of the Ministry of Commerce, named Huang Baiquan. The handsome young man beside him was a clerk in the department.

Huang Baiquan looked at Lin Dong and said sincerely: "In fact, I also know that our requests are a bit too much. After all, that Franco has had a very bad impact on your platform, but the Franco family and many companies in our country have commercial exchanges, and there are also records in our Ministry of Commerce. This time they asked us for it, and we happened to have a batch of materials to be purchased through them. This batch of strategic materials is usually controlled by the United States. Now the people in their family say that as long as you Bifang platform remove the accusation against Franco and then issue an announcement, they will connect us with the company that produces strategic materials..."

"Impossible!" Before Lin Dong could speak, Ji Yao spoke directly with anger, "We do not object to helping the country as much as we can, but we must let us take back the announcement that has been issued and then issue an announcement to explain. Wouldn't this let us slap ourselves in the face?"

Ji Yao's anger makes sense. Franco's behavior on the Bifang platform has already had a very bad impact. Now many people who were interested in entering the Bifang platform have also begun to hesitate, which has led to a significant decline in sales of the latest version of the Feilang Helmet in the past few days. If Changying Group issues another announcement, it is probably not only that the sales of the Feilang Helmet will drop sharply, but many users who are already on the platform will also run away.

Huang Baiquan said with a wry smile: "I know this is indeed a bit embarrassing for Changying Group, so if Changying Group can do this, it will not only make contributions to the country, but also help our Ministry of Commerce. In some policies, we will also appropriately tilt towards Changying Group to make up for your losses..."

Just as Ji Yao was about to speak, Lin Dong waved her hand and stopped her. Lin Dong knew that if Ji Yao said it, there would definitely be nothing good to say. After all, from the date of the completion of Changying Group, except for Shennong Group, because it had to compete with others for time, it applied for a project discount. In other aspects, Changying Group's products were originally in short supply, and there was no need to apply for any policy discounts and support.

Ji Yao also understood that Lin Dong didn't want to cause trouble. Of course, she was not afraid of trouble. As her father, it might be very simple to suppress this matter.

However, Ji Yao didn't plan so much and didn't want to do this. She just simply felt that the two of them came to plead for Franco was really nonsense.

Perhaps in the eyes of some older generations, it is normal to lose some personal interests for the sake of the country's interests. Ji Yao did not agree with this approach, but felt it was not worth it - now, except for some top military technology, or things like fighter engines, the quality of production in China is not high. How many other things are really urgently needed by China?

Lin Dong didn't let Ji Yao speak, and he asked calmly: "Then can I ask Director Huang, what are these strategic materials? Where are they used?"

"Did you ask? These things are very confidential," Huang Baiquan hadn't spoken yet, and the handsome young man next to him couldn't help but say to Lin Dong: "You only know that for you, sending a painless announcement can bring you a very beneficial policy, which is enough! Some things are not something you can understand at the level, do you understand?"

In the last sentence, the young man increased his tone, as if telling Lin Dong: Just be your businessman well, your level is not enough, and it is not time to understand this matter!

The young man just sat next to Huang Baiquan, his eyes flashed past Ji Yao from time to time, but Ji Yao didn't pay attention to him, which made him a little disappointed. Now that he has the opportunity to speak, he naturally won't miss this opportunity.

"Xiao Chen, don't talk nonsense!" Huang Baiquan deliberately scolded with a stern face when he heard the young man say this. He is different from Xiao Chen. He vaguely knows that Changying Group has a good background, otherwise he would not have come to Changying Group in person. Now Lin Dong's words have been intercepted by Xiao Chen. Although he doesn't agree with it, he also feels that the two people of Changying Group are a bit arrogant and need to be suppressed.

However, after thinking about it, Huang Mianquan explained: "What we need is seed steel. The formula of this steel is quite unique. Although it is not very useful, there are still many places in our country that need it." As he said, he briefly introduced the performance of the special steel.

After hearing this, a piece of information flashed in his mind. Then he said in surprise: "I remember that this kind of special steel has been developed in our country's Wuhan Iron and Steel! And now they can produce it in batches. Although the quantity is not too large, it should not be a problem to meet domestic demand, right?"

Huang Baiquan's face suddenly showed an embarrassing expression. He didn't expect that Lin Dong would know that this kind of steel has been developed in China, and even sold it. This time, although his reasons sounded very high-sounding and legitimate, what is really there when Lin Dong said this is hard to say!

"What do you know?" The young man was reluctant. "Although the special steel of Wuhan Iron and Steel barely meets the standards, the price is not only expensive, but the quantity is still very low. It is not enough for the amount needed by several large state-owned enterprises and research institutions in China! The company introduced by the Franco family can not only meet the quantity we need, but also the remaining..."

"Isn't it just that domestic things are expensive!" Ji Yao interrupted him without hesitation, "If you don't buy domestic products, it will probably take a long time for Wuhan Iron and Steel products to be sold. How could they continue to develop more advanced materials?"

Lin Dong said calmly: "Ji Yao is right. I think you need to consider domestic materials. Although the quality may be slightly worse, if you don't support it, Wuhan Iron and Steel can only be digested through the market, and the R&D cycle will definitely be longer. In this case, the impact will definitely be greater. In addition, our Changying Group will definitely support the construction of the country, but that is ahead of the real needs of the country. At present, I don't think we need to do anything."

Huang Baiquan left Changying Group with Xiao Chen in silence. Xiao Chen looked angry, and he couldn't help but say, "Cut Huang, why don't we go back and leave a message to them directly through the department! If a company like this is not given some excellence, they don't know how to respect us at all!"

Huang Baiquan looked at Xiao Chen with some surprise, and finally chose to explain: "Xiao Chen, actually Changying Group is right. Our decision is not necessary for them. And our decision is also not necessary for the country - this is more complicated, not as simple as you think!"
