Confessions of a Salesman

Chapter 1161 Negotiations Broke Down
His words made me a little confused, and his attitude became so tough that I had to feel a little suspicious, so I asked again: "You mean you would rather go to court than discuss with us and continue to cooperate?"

Eddie was a little overwhelmed when he heard my question, hesitated for a long time and said: "It's not that I am willing to cooperate, but if you still insist on not buying our accessories and still use that kind of equipment, we can't cooperate with you. If you want to sue us, we'd rather go to court!"

I said with an oh: "Then I understand! Who has looked for you and promised you anything?"

Eddie immediately changed his face and said, "I don't even know what you're talking about?"

I laughed and said, "Why are you nervous? I'm just talking casually! It seems that I really guessed right! Eddie, listen to my last advice, don't trust others easily, our cooperation is based on countless times Once the trust is established, it will be difficult to recover if it is broken! You have thought it over!"

Eddie seemed to resist my threat, and immediately said forcefully: "Trust is mutual. If you trust me, you won't question me. Isn't the question I raised right?"

I snorted coldly and said, "Of course it's wrong! You say our equipment is simple, I can understand, but this doesn't need to buy your millions of accessories? It's just accessories, a few million, or Euros, then we still have How about buying your equipment directly? Originally, we had a list, and our chief engineer also brought up the list with me, and we were going to bring it up to you, and I felt guilty because of it. Because I didn’t purchase your company’s equipment as agreed at that time, I wanted to compensate you, but now it seems superfluous!”

Eddie blushed, held back for a while, and then slowly said: "No matter what, your current production situation is definitely not good. When will your equipment be perfected, and when will we come back!" After finishing speaking, Without waiting for our consent, he took the person and left.

Ren Xiaoqi thought that I would be extreme, and when something extreme happened, he persuaded me again and again: "Actually, what they said has some truth, so you don't have to be so angry. If you want us to improve, let's improve!"

I smiled and shook my head and said: "It's not that the equipment is not good at all. They did it on purpose. We can't meet their requirements, because they are deliberately embarrassing us. Think about it, if they just Our equipment is dissatisfied, and after handing over the list of accessories, we can wait for our reply before suspending work, but they are unilateral like this, without our consent. Is this a problem with the equipment?"

Ren Xiaoqi asked puzzledly: "Then you mean, they just want to sell our accessories to make more money?"

I shook my head again and said: "No, if you really want to sell our accessories, you won't have to ask for more than 2000 million yuan. They know that this is impossible. If you sell their accessories like this, I might as well just buy their equipment! And , you didn't notice, their attitude was so tough just now, they didn't give us a chance to bargain at all! This is the problem! In my opinion, they have found a new buyer, and the conditions they gave must be greater than the compensation of!"

Ren Xiaoqi asked suspiciously: "Who would do this, it hurts others and does not benefit oneself!"

I sighed and said, "You still can't guess this? The cars we make will be on the market at night. Who will benefit the most? Don't you need to think about it?"

Ren Xiaoqi groaned and said, "Wei Hua? Are they going too far? Can't they compete fairly?"

I sneered and said: "In their eyes, this is fair competition! It's time for you to recognize the truth of this society. How can there be a good time? There are always people who are carrying the burden, and the person who is carrying the burden is you. Father! He doesn't want you to be polluted by the big dye vat of society so soon!"

Ren Xiaoqi seemed very sad, the expression on his face froze, and he said: "You mean, my dad has always protected me, that's why he didn't let me take over his position. In your eyes, am I worthless? , like a primary school student?"

I said with some displeasure: "I'm not in the mood to enlighten you now, to do ideological work for you. If you feel that you are useless, do something to make yourself useful! You stopped working for a week, and you didn't talk to me. Said, you want to solve the problem yourself, I understand this, but have you solved it? You can't solve it at all, and you have dragged it for a week, and a week can change a lot of things!"

Ren Xiaoqi wanted to defend himself, but he didn't know why, and he didn't say anything.

I was not in the mood to comfort him, and continued: "At present, you have to understand clearly that it is not the Offutt Company that is against us, but the people behind him are playing tricks. What we want to solve is not the Offutt Company, but the The person who made the condition, what kind of condition is it! In addition, you have to find a way to find another channel to improve our equipment, and the construction period can no longer be delayed. I just received news that SAIC’s first new energy vehicle , will be officially released at the end of the year, and now it is less than 4 months before the Chinese New Year, which means that SAIC has always been ahead of us, and they have already started before we started research and development of new energy vehicles! They have already taken the lead If we want to be ahead of them and launch our own car, we have to find a way to get the equipment right, otherwise we will be beaten everywhere! Even if we launch a car, it is still behind others Follow in the footsteps!"

Ren Xiaoqi asked helplessly: "Then what should we do now?"

I said dissatisfiedly: "You ask me what to do? You have to find a way to solve this problem yourself! You can't rely on me for everything!"

Ren Xiaoqi was stunned for a moment and asked, "Then you don't care?"

I sighed and said, "Why haven't you understood yet? You have to solve many things by yourself! Only in this way can you truly control your own destiny and your own company! Otherwise, why would your father hand over the company to you?" You, just leave it to me! Haven't you understood your father's painstaking efforts?"

Ren Xiaoqi hummed and said, "I understand!"

Afterwards, he immediately began to instruct his subordinates, and first said to Wu Xinru: "Collect all the equipment of our new energy project, send the information to Garcia Company, and see what price they will offer if we want to improve our equipment? "

Wu Xinru looked at it, then nodded and replied, "I'll do it right away!"

Then Ren Xiaoqi picked up the phone, dialed a number and said, "Help me find out, who has been in contact with Eddie from Offutt Company recently, I want a list of everyone, find someone to follow him, and report him to me at any time whereabouts!"

I nodded with satisfaction.

Ren Xiaoqi started to get busy. Seeing him arrange his work in an orderly manner, I stood up and said with a smile: "You are done, call me, and I will introduce a friend to you!"

Ren Xiaoqi didn't know if he heard it or not, so he let out a oh, and started busying himself with his own affairs.

Yaoyang came back, and when he learned that I was going to Myanmar and that I had to do such a dangerous thing, at first he disagreed with everything, and then he insisted on going with us, no matter how much he persuaded him!

In the end, I said angrily: "This is not a joke, there must be someone at home! You have to keep an eye on the project at Lushuiyuan! Also, at the film and television company, we have done the preliminary work So good, you have to invest more, find a good place, and make a film and television base, this is a good way to make money, you have to take it seriously!"

Yaoyang said puzzledly: "Then you are at home, isn't it just right? You can take care of these things. I am here, but I may not be able to settle it. I still have to ask you when the time comes! I will go to work, and you can make decisions at home." Already!"

I shook my head and said, "They don't trust you and won't let you go with them! I'm familiar with this group of people, besides, you have to take up this mess at home! You've done a good job, I still say that, from now on, I won't take care of the company's affairs, I'm only responsible for the development of the project, and you will be responsible for the later work!"

Yaoyang was still worried and said: "You can't do anything else!"

I smiled and said, "No, Xiao Hei is here! I won't try my best, I'll run away if I have something to do!"

In the evening, it was rare that we were all together, so we called all the people who could be called over to get together. It was also a short farewell, and at the same time let everyone report on their recent work and recent work plans.

Lu Ping was the first to arrive at the restaurant. When she saw me drinking tea with Yaoyang, she was not polite. She sat next to me, took a sip from my cup, and asked me, "Are you going on a long trip again?" Already?"

I said dissatisfied: "Isn't there a cup? Are you afraid of infectious diseases?"

Lu Ping smiled and said, "I'm not afraid, are you afraid?"

I smiled helplessly and asked, "Who did you hear that I'm going on a long trip?"

Lu Ping cut her head and said, "Is there anyone else talking? This situation, either there is a big move, or you are going to travel far away, am I right!?"

I chuckled and said, "You'll figure out the holy will now? How about it? After accepting all the people, are you still used to it?"

Lu Ping replied confidently: "It's all under control! After the new air conditioner came out last month, the market responded very well, and Xiao Hai, shouldn't it be called Mr. Huang, joined forces for a wave of promotional activities, which were very successful! Household appliances The market has entered a stable period and is very healthy. Everyone is making their own products well in an atmosphere of fair competition. There are no more price wars, and new products win! As you know, our R&D capabilities , has always been at the top of the industry, and it is not difficult to re-occupy the market! In addition, our internal management has always been a sound system, but it is difficult to fund in the early stage. Fortunately, Zijun gave me a lot of help, and now it is stable Transition!"

I hummed and said, "Where is President Dong? Didn't you say anything?"

Lu Ping shook her head and said, "She's not even in the company, don't you know? She's working in Yaoyang Building now, and she doesn't even ask about everything!"

I curiously asked Yaoyang: "President Dong, what are you doing now? Why do you hang out with you every day!?"

Yaoyang laughed and said: "She! Now she is very interested in our catering group and wants to add her own restaurant, but she feels that the style is different, and she is thinking about how to merge and acquire together! In addition, she is planning to invest A few drinks, that kind of steamed tea drink!"

I groaned and asked, "Carbonated tea? Can you drink it?"

Yaoyang curled his lips and said: "I don't know, I'm afraid of being poisoned, I haven't tried it! I still have a box in the car, do you want to drink? I'll give you a drink, try it?"

I hurriedly shook my head and said, "I won't try it! I don't like drinking beverages! I drink even less carbonated beverages. Even if it's tea, I only drink hot ones!"

Lu Ping teased: "Live an old age life ahead of time! You have started to take care of it so soon! Why are you like a dog? Except for childhood, you are old age. There is no transition period in between?"

I smiled and said, "You have to take care of it early, otherwise it will be too late to think about it when you get old! I've started applying facial masks now!"

Yaoyang also said: "Yes, women need to take care of themselves, and men also need to take care of them. It doesn't matter about the face, but it must have the functions it should have!"

Lu Ping blushed and said, "Can you not be so rascal!"

Yaoyang said helplessly: "Why are you a hooligan? Where did I say something wrong?"

I gave him a blank look, and complained: "You told me it's okay, but there is a lady here, so you have a problem if you say that, old rascal!"

Yaoyang cut it and said: "The most I can do is talk, what about you? I don't even bother to talk about you!"

Lu Ping asked curiously: "What did he do? Tell me!"

I curled my lips and said, "I didn't do anything! Don't listen to his nonsense! By the way, is Xiao Hai here today?"

Lu Ping replied casually: "Come here, I heard that I will bring my girlfriend to meet you!"

I didn't pay much attention and said, "Really? How do you look?"

Lu Ping said with a smile: "The female star is so beautiful. Yao Yang introduced her, and he knows a lot of celebrities!"

Yaoyang hurriedly defended: "Don't talk nonsense, they knew each other by themselves, Xiaohai asked me to find a product spokesperson, and I introduced a celebrity to him, who knew they hit it off immediately!"

I have always had a mediocre impression of female stars, so I can say that I don't like them very much. I frowned and said, "Don't affect Xiao Hai's future because of this!"

Yaoyang sighed and said: "I was afraid that you would say this, I reminded him, and then I thought of bringing someone to show you, I guess I haven't even brought him into the house before!"

I asked curiously, "Is it famous?"

Lu Ping immediately replied, "Zheng Ke!"

I asked, "Who? Haven't heard of it? Where's the star? From Taiwan? From Hong Kong?"

Lu Ping cut it and said: "Where are you? You don't know it! Local products are very popular recently. You don't know if you tell me, and you don't pay attention to them. Anyway, they are very good recently, and they are everywhere on the street. Her poster looks like a doll!"
