As a short holiday approaches in China, while most people are enjoying their leisure time, I chose to cross mountains and seas to travel to the Middle East and pay a special visit to our long-term old clients. For foreign trade professionals, a short holiday is not the end of rest, but an opportunity to deepen friendship and consolidate cooperation.
Before departure, I sorted out the past cooperation, prepared special gifts, and made full preparations in combination with Middle Eastern business etiquette and client needs, showing respect through details. After arriving, the familiar hot wind and the warm greetings from clients dispelled the fatigue of the long flight. During the meeting, the warm cheek-to-cheek greeting and mellow Arabic coffee turned the tacit understanding on both sides of the screen into face-to-face familiarity.
We avoided tedious pleasantries and focused on listening to the clients' questions about product use and their new needs for vehicles in local infrastructure and mining projects. We communicated adaptive solutions on site and promised after-sales support. This visit during the short holiday was not about hasty promotion, but about keeping an appointment with sincerity and thanking them for their years of trust. The short gathering not only consolidated the cooperative friendship, but also clarified the direction of future cooperation, living up to the time and companionship.
