In fact, that prince really thought so.
They assumed that the diamond company cooperating with Xiaomi had dug up a diamond mine somewhere. As for the color, wouldn't spraying it be enough?
He just wanted to get a nice portrait for his father, the more luxurious the better.
Ideally, it should be completely inlaid with diamonds.
He hadn't really considered the color issue.
Just as the two were whispering, the Saudi procurement official directly placed a sky-high order of 4 billion here.
Besides buying diamond phones, this painting cost the most money.
Ten billion!
This painting will be worth ten billion!
General Lei looked in surprise at the secretary who was coming over to report the order.
How much did you say?
A 4 billion US dollar order, General Lei. The factories on Li's side should start working.
The secretary was also a little excited. Heavens, this was the first time in her life that she had negotiated such a large order.
At the time, she was a little worried that the value of the diamond phone would be too expensive.
But who knew that the Saudi procurement official didn't even blink an eye and directly placed a super order of 4 billion.
It stunned her.
Her mind is still full of 4 billion.
"Good, good, good, I'm on the phone with General Li. You first take the procurement officials to see our sample machines and tell them that we have accepted the order and will deliver the phones and portraits to them as quickly as possible!"
The secretary agreed repeatedly, and then scurried towards the reception room.
Li Yun's mouth twitched on the other end of the phone.
"General Lei, I heard everything just now. An order of 4 billion? Those guys are indeed the top tycoons in the world. What do you think about that portrait?"
"Just have it all inlaid with diamonds. If the diamonds are smaller, we can just inlay them more densely. The King's portrait must be more detailed, right?"
"Okay, I'll find an art expert to do this later."
"What about colored diamonds?"
"We'll talk about it later. We can just shoot a movie or something to promote colored diamonds, and isn't the sucker on his way here?"
Li Yun and General Lei smiled knowingly at the same time.
What capitalists in the Eagle Country like to do most is use movies to promote certain commodities.
After placing orders for phones and portraits at Xiaomi, the Saudi procurement official took a low-key flight to Chongqing, where he found Shancheng Guizuan Beer, which is Li Yun's beer processing plant.
They wanted to order a batch of beer to take back.
Originally, they had strict bans on drinking, but they only came over with orders for alcohol, which were resold to Africa by merchants from other countries. In other words, they didn't need it.
It was definitely unrealistic for those shady merchants who cooperated with Saudi Arabia to come to China directly, as they were easily targeted by enemies, so they could only entrust the Saudi procurement officials to help.
They thought that since they were here, and they were spending money in China anyway, which would gradually increase friendship with this country, they might as well do their merchant friends a small favor.
It just so happened that Shancheng Guizuan Beer had been quite famous recently, and it was also easy to win prizes.
It could also be considered a benefit for those friends.
Li Yun naturally would not refuse their arrival.
Not only did he not refuse, but he also promised that as long as they won the lottery, he would uniformly redeem the prizes for them every once in a while.
In this way, Li Yun inexplicably gained the friendship of the Saudi royal family and the friendship of some African merchants.
It was true friendship.
The beer order alone was a large order of 3 billion!
This large order was not in a hurry. It could be sent over in batches. Anyway, it was a fast-moving consumer product. An order of 3 billion would be enough for them to consume for half a year.
Heavens know how happy the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has been recently.
Saudi Arabia came this time not only to buy equipment, but after arriving in the domestic market, they directly swiped their cards to purchase all kinds of materials they liked without even frowning.
With such a tycoon friend, why worry about not being able to sell things?
When Li Yun was chatting with this Saudi procurement official, he inadvertently learned that they wanted to grow a lot of fresh vegetables in the desert.
But they were troubled by the lack of relevant technology, so they could only buy canned vegetables from neighboring countries.
However, neighboring countries were as poor as their hometown, and the exported canned vegetables from Europe, which was a little farther away, were not very good, and they always tasted strange.
"I wonder if you like spicy food?"
Li Yun asked hesitantly for a moment.
"Spicy?" The Saudi official blinked and said with a smile, "Of course we eat spicy food. In fact, we like spicy food very much."
Li Yun laughed: "Isn't that a coincidence? Most of the local delicacies in Chongqing are mainly spicy. I may not be able to help you with fresh vegetables, but I have a way to help you with pickles, salted vegetables, kimchi, etc."
"Really? As long as it's vegetables, we will buy them in large quantities." The vegetables in Saudi Arabia are completely dependent on imports. Although they don't lack import channels, they lack friendship from this mysterious ancient country in the East!
I didn't expect that there would be such a good opportunity to come over to help purchase beer.
At this time, the Saudi royal family had already made the idea of reaching a comprehensive strategic cooperation with the mysterious ancient country in the East last year.
Whether it is military or civilian life.
As long as the friendship with China can be further deepened, they can buy whatever they see, especially essential products.
Vegetables are also on their shopping list.
"I think you must have heard of hot pot, right? How about I get you some then?"
"Good, good, good, hot pot. I only ate it once a year ago." He had eaten it once in Guangdong last year, and the taste of the hot pot left a deep impression on him.
"By the way, the diamond phone order you placed at Xiaomi is produced in my factory, but the factory is in Shangqiu, Henan. Would you like to visit it if you have the chance?"
The Saudi procurement official looked at Li Yun in surprise. He never expected that there was this connection.
He was naturally happy to agree.
Moreover, they also purchased a batch of diamonds. Sometimes, diamonds in the Middle East and Africa are as hard currency as gold and oil.
Many transaction methods are settled with diamonds.
It is conceivable how great the influence of diamonds is in this era.
Li Yun's suppression of the secret of industrial diamonds is equivalent to mastering an inexhaustible source of wealth.
This is also the real reason why he did not try to shake the status of the seven major diamond giants in the Eagle Country.
Diamonds are still the hardest currency in circulation in this era.
Moreover, after he got on the Saudi line, he could officially enter the markets of various Middle Eastern countries through the Saudi channel.
As long as he has no malice, the goods flowing there are easy to use, and he will have plenty of orders in the future.
What he wants to sell most is motorcycles and tricycles.
Especially tricycles, slipper brothers, turban brothers, Pakistani iron brothers, etc., they will definitely go crazy for it!
