Chapter 663 Giant Panda Marketing Tips and Invitation from Chengdu

"That's good! When I go back, I'll discuss this matter with the professors of the school. In a few days, I can send the invitation letter to the New York consulate! Counselor Lin, I'm causing you trouble again!"

"Hahaha, what kind of trouble is this! For us diplomats, we would like to have as many activities as possible to promote cultural exchanges between the two countries! Besides, Yale University International Cooperative and Conservation Center for Giant Pandas issued an invitation letter , Inviting my country’s giant panda expert group to the United States for exchanges, this is not a commercial and trade cooperation, and it’s not my business! If you want to trouble, it’s not on my head, hahaha, come, come, drink and drink! We’ve known each other for so long , it is a rare opportunity to have a drink together, come, Mr. Black, I respect your contribution to the exchanges between China and the United States in various fields!"

He boldly raised his wine glass, and at the semi-private and semi-public luncheon, Counselor Lin also shed the shackles of the past.Purely based on personal feelings, I would like to express my gratitude to Carter, a foreigner who made my work a lot easier
At this point in time in the early 80s, from the perspective of country-to-country exchanges, Carter’s contribution was negligible.But in the civil and personal fields, Carter has done a lot.
Whether it was the investment in China two years ago, or the lease of giant pandas, and the establishment of the Connecticut Panda House, the giant pandas, which are indispensable in Chinese cultural symbols, were introduced to Connecticut, New York and Rhode Island.

In the first few years of his diplomatic work, Carter did these things. Speaking of which, it was all the achievements of the New York Consulate!After all, these states all belong to the area of ​​responsibility of the New York Consulate.In their area of ​​responsibility, Chinese culture began to enter the United States, and this is the result!
And Counselor Lin, who acts as an intermediary and keeps in touch with Carter, will wait until the dust settles on this matter.Naturally, a credit is indispensable!
Under the double orientation of interests and emotions, and the double goodwill, the atmosphere of the luncheon has always been very harmonious.

Regarding the transfer work of giant pandas, Carter even waved his hand, saying that he could let his private jet fly to Chengdu to welcome the two heavyweights to New Haven.Directly solve the embarrassment that there is no direct flight to New Haven Airport in the civil aviation field between China and the United States.

Moreover, traveling by private jet is more secure than consigning by normal civil aircraft.The reason why he made this decisive decision was that on the one hand, he had spent so much money, and he didn't care about the cost of the voyage;
And as soon as this was done, Director Chen was happy again. This happiness revealed a small detail, or a little marketing trick for giant pandas:
"Mr. Black, after we go back, I will arrange someone to record the process of trapping giant pandas into cages and loading them into trucks. The photos will be sent to you in advance, and you can use them for publicity! Learned from the Germans!"

"The giant pandas sent to Germany were the first time that our Chengdu Zoo received such an assignment. At that time, a German reporter came to follow us all the way to select giant pandas, trap them into cages and other whole process. At the beginning We were still wondering, what’s so good about this? According to Director Ding who came back from Germany, these pictures, which were not seen by ordinary people at that time, were very popular in Germany! The promotion of the arrival of giant pandas in Germany Work has played a very important role!"

"I know that you are a businessman, and the New Haven Zoo is also a business. These, as a leading publicity material, you can use them to warm up, and then there will be more tourists! We also wish Mr. Black, Prosperous wealth and prosperous business! I respect you!"

If the other party didn't mention this kind of little operation like cold knowledge, Carter really didn't expect it.

When Director Chen mentioned it at this time, Carter immediately thought of the benefits of doing so.

As a Chinese in my previous life, I have never seen such a scene.There is some curiosity in my heart, let alone foreigners
Germany is not counted, but in the United States, these photos and even videos of the behind-the-scenes footage of giant pandas before going to the United States are definitely exclusive resources!It just so happens that these materials can be used to give Murdoch a favor.For that media tycoon who just came to the US market not long ago, provide a little material
Even thinking about it by analogy, it seems that I can reach a further cooperation with Murdoch in the marketing of the Giant Panda Pavilion.Materials related to giant pandas are enough to attract attention in the United States, and this is traffic!
The other party got the traffic, and I used Murdoch's media channels to promote the popularity of the New Haven Panda House in order to increase the traffic
"This suggestion is very good! In our words, Director Chen's words are worth tens of thousands of dollars!"

Putting aside the thoughts that flashed through his mind for a moment, Carter quickly raised his wine glass with a smile, and replied:
After a lunch, the transfer process was negotiated, that is, the Chengdu Zoo was loaded and sent to Shuangliu Airport, then transported by Carter's Gulfstream II to New Haven Airport, and finally transferred to the Panda House.

And after Carter personally confirmed that the giant pandas received were Yingying and Meimei, and there was no objection, the main problem was solved.As for the breeder question, that's purely incidental
Carter admitted that when he saw the look of reluctance in the breeders who seemed to be Yingying and Meimei, his heart softened.But to some extent, I also have the idea of ​​saving trouble. Not changing the breeder is definitely a good thing for the long-term healthy growth of giant pandas!
As for the subsequent application for civil aviation routes, it is natural that after Carter returns, he will communicate with the air service company to submit the flight plan to the air traffic control units of the two countries for review.Also, the establishment of Yale University's exchange program and the issuance of the invitation letter also required Carter to handle them one by one.

Speaking of this, during the dinner, when he learned that Carter was only a student of Yale University, Director Chen expressed doubts about Carter's all-encompassing words.When can a student decide what exchange program the school does? !
Then, of course, there is the difference between Chinese and American universities, and the special science theater of Yale and New Haven.
After the real guests and hosts had a good time, the luncheon should have ended, but suddenly, the special guest who seemed a little taciturn, said:

"Mr. Black, I want to ask, when your private plane picks up the giant panda, will you go with it?"

"Don't get me wrong, it's not that we don't welcome you. In fact, on the contrary, we especially want to invite you to Chengdu for inspection or play!"

"I'm asking this, just thinking, thinking, if you come with us at that time, we, the hosts, can better prepare to welcome you! Let you feel the enthusiasm of our Chengdu!"
