Confessions of a Salesman

Chapter 357 Seeing the old enemy again
Takahashi nodded hypocritically after listening to the translation, and continued: "This is something we can learn from. The enterprises in your country have indeed developed rapidly in recent years. We are also very surprised, but at the same time, there are many problems. Instability, enterprises are uneven, and the products produced are uneven. There are many high-end products, but more are low-end products. There are still many products that imitate our products and even stick our trademarks. You have caused great harm to yourselves, and one of the main purposes of our visit this time is to strengthen exchanges between the two parties, strengthen cooperation, and drive this group of harmless horses out of this industry."

Mr. Dong agreed very much and said: "Mr. Gao Qiao's opinion is very sincere. We also attach great importance to this exchange. We also hope to have more technical exchanges and close cooperation with your company. We will learn more from your company. Management philosophy, excellent quality management."

Then there was another long piece of kind words, the two sides came and went, and they said it so kindly, I heard it so familiar, I grew up listening to these kind words since I was a child, and I can almost memorize them.Then the two sides began to only communicate, and the whole room became lively.

I'm surprised, it's been almost a day, why can't I see them talking about the main points?Have they already heard the information they want, or the information they want to express?Why didn't I hear it?

The meeting was close to 4 o'clock, and I couldn't sit still any longer. I quietly walked up to Mr. Dong's ear and said, "The agent is still waiting for me in my office. I'm just sitting here. I'm leaving first. Call me again if you need anything."

Dong Zong blamed: "You are the busiest in the whole company. Everyone else has been sitting comfortably for a day. Why are you jumping up and down? You should listen to other people's management experience and learn more, so you can't be humble. "

I sighed and said, "It's too difficult to expect them to teach us something, isn't it? They are all evil-minded, and they don't know what they want to plot against us? You will lose your temper for a while, just watch it." , I don't have time to talk nonsense with them here, how about I go say hello and be back in a while?"

After finishing speaking, he walked out without waiting for Mr. Dong's consent.

Even though everyone is communicating with each other, the moment I walk out, I can still deeply feel that many pairs of eyes are looking at me.

When I returned to the office, I immediately picked up the cigarette case on the table, handed one to Mr. Luo who had been waiting for me all afternoon, lit one himself and said apologetically, "I'm very sorry for making you wait so long, Mr. Luo. The devils are so good at talking, this is not over yet, I don’t know what they are doing here? China-Japan Friendship Debate? Really can talk!”

Mr. Luo smiled and said, "It's okay. I'm drinking tea here. It's pretty good. You have so many good teas? I tried several kinds, and the unpackaged one is the best."

I took a look, isn't this the Yuqian Longjing that I ordered back from the Lin family because of my shame?
This made my heart ache, and I said, "Brother, you know, do you drink more than 4000 a tael of Yuqian Longjing? How much do you drink? Don't let me drink it blind."

Mr. Luo said tut tut: "As for it? You are too stingy, right? Isn't it just tea? What's the matter with more than 4000 a tael? Tomorrow I will ask someone to bring you some real good tea, tens of thousands One or two, you can drink it and try it, you are of average grade."

At first I smiled happily and said: "The relationship is good." But then I said disappointedly: "You drink my tea is fine, but if you want to bring me tea, I dare not accept it. , The company also has regulations, and it is absolutely forbidden to use the agent for a needle. If you don't come here to harm my tea, you will help me... It's still pouring, can you drink something else?"

After seeing off Mr. Luo, I called Meili in and said, "Can we take care of our home? You look at our own things, don't come to a guest, and you just give all my good things to others , told you to go to Mr. Dong to apply for some good tea, good cigarettes, and good wine, but you dare not go, and you will be generous if you go out."

Meili has already been trained a lot by me, she was neither nervous nor angry, and said with a smile: "Mr. Chen, I have been to Mr. Dong's place. Mr. Dong said that the company has hospitality standards, and your standards are as good as yours. It’s the same as her, that’s all. Besides, you didn’t miss out on Dong Zong’s things, I think your cabinet is full of foreign wine, Moutai, and Zhonghua cigarettes.”

I squinted and said, "Where do you see that I'm taking Dong Zong's money? It's all saved by Xiaohua for me, and sooner or later you will lose it all. You have to be careful and careful in life, you know?"

Meili nodded, but was obviously dissatisfied, and muttered: "Scrooge!" After speaking, she walked out.

I angrily called her behind her: "What did you say? Say it again!" Meili pretended she didn't hear it.

When I think of Xiaohua, I feel a chill in my heart, and I don't know when she will be able to return to the same way as before.

The long meeting finally came to an end, President Dong warmly invited them to dinner, but I was relieved when the Japanese refused.

At the time of farewell, when Lu Ping walked up to me, I shook hands with her politely and said nothing, since she didn't want to recognize her former identity, why should I force others to make things difficult.But Lu Ping spoke up, and said in a low voice: "Guan, you are getting bigger and bigger, but why are you still the same kind of virtue? Dogs really can't change eating shit, do you think you can beat me this time?"

I looked at her bright smile, but said something like this, I also smiled and said: "You said that I would rather eat shit than eat you, you are really worse than shit, she was a good girl, she ran to be a comfort woman Now, I think you have nowhere to go, originally you didn't come to mess with me, so I didn't bother to talk to you, since you want to feel the feeling of being stepped on by me and never turning over, I will satisfy you." After finishing speaking, He smiled and let go of her hand.

Lu Ping was also smiling, but it could be seen that her eyes were full of resentment, and she wished she could tear me into pieces and send me to the [-]th floor of hell.

Mr. Dong and I, Mr. Chen, returned to the office. Mr. Dong asked: "What do you think is the purpose of their visit this time? Is it just to learn about our company? After so many years, what you need to know should be known by now. , I really don’t understand, what are they doing here?”

Mr. Chen analyzed: "I think it is the first time for them to have such close contact with our domestic enterprises. From the many questions they ask, we know that most of the information they know comes from newspapers, magazines, or online materials. , They really don't understand, how can we progress so fast in just a few decades?"

I hummed and said: "Mr. Chen's analysis is very correct. I can see that their surprised expressions are not feigned, but they just can't accept it for a while. This time they came here to test our real strength, whether they are qualified to compete with us They compete?"

Dong Zong asked: "Then do you think they think we are qualified to compete with them?"

I shook my head and replied, "I don't know. It's best to let them think we are not qualified and let them underestimate the enemy."

The second round of quotations for the acquisition began. As a result of the quotations, Sanyo's quotations were much higher than ours.

The bank asked us if we wanted to make a third quotation, because it was the last quotation. If this quotation was lower than Sanyo, Sanyo would officially defeat us and take over Huasheng.So this quotation is very important, Dong Zong asked my opinion.

I thought for a while and asked, "When is the deadline?"

Dong Zong replied: "The day after tomorrow."

I grunted and said, "Then report it the day after tomorrow. I'll go fight for it tomorrow and see if I can dig up some information?"

Dong Zong asked: "Where are you going to dig?"

I smiled mysteriously and didn't answer her.

I went to find Lu Ping directly, but I didn't have any contact information for Lu Ping, so I had to wait for her outside her company.

When it came to Lu Ping, it was a pity that she got off work with a Japanese and sat in a Toyota car.

I followed their car and went downstairs to their house. The Japanese drove away. I saw that Lu Ping was about to enter the unit door, so I hurriedly honked the car horn, hoping to attract her attention.

Finally, she looked back at my car, and I got out of the car and waved to her.

She looked left and right, ran over nervously, and yelled at me: "What are you doing at my house? What do you want to do?"

I laughed and said, "I'm here to see my old colleague. The last time I saw you in our company, I didn't have time to say a few words. I want to see how you are doing now?"

Lu Ping scolded angrily: "You bastard! Hurry up and bastard!"

I said innocently: "I came to see you with good intentions, why are you swearing at others? This is at your house, what do others think I have done to you?"

Lu Ping was so angry that her lungs were going to explode, she hurried into my car.

I got in the car, put away my smile, and asked solemnly: "Since you made a mess of Wanzhong Electrician last time, how did you come to Sanyo Company? How did you get in? I really admire you what!"

Lu Ping snorted and said, "You don't care about me, why are you looking for me?"

I said indifferently: "What purpose can I have, just to find out, do we have to pretend we don't know each other when we meet in the future? You go to our company and I greet you, but you dare not recognize me. Threatening me, I'm a little scared, you say your current company knows about your past?"

Lu Ping was trembling with anger, and said viciously, "Are you threatening me?"

I pretended to be innocent and said: "I didn't threaten you, I didn't say anything, it's your own wrong thinking. I just catch up with my old colleagues."

Lu Ping said bitterly: "Give me the money, and I'll tell you what you want to know."

I smiled and said, "You borrowed money from me, right? I don't have any money, and I don't want to know anything. If it's you, is there something you don't want others to know?"
