Confessions of a Salesman

Chapter 818 Compensation Matters
The key to the implementation of the whole plan lies in the confrontation between the project of our ancient town and the project of the water park.Whoever can take the lead will be able to take the initiative.

The two "Dancing Kings" bought by Yaoyang started to work.After the delegation returned, the assistant reprimanded them bitterly. Our company neglected their performance, and added fuel to the effect that we were insincere and had no plan to set up a production base in Dongguan.

The two dance kings put forward different opinions. They felt that they were too arrogant. They didn't ask anything and didn't understand anything. They just asked to see the chairman, and they would definitely ignore us.

Regarding the matter of our company building a base, Cheng has two sides. On the one hand, he feels that our company is not sincere, just talking about it, and his attitude is arrogant; on the other hand, he thinks that our company is still sincere. The conditions, although the conditions may be harsh, will still land in Dongguan.

The upper management's attitude towards this matter is not very clear, and there has never been a precise answer. It is not difficult to guess that their purpose is not to fight for it, nor to give up.

At the same time, they must be very clear about the contradiction between our ancient town and the water park. They think that neither side will be offended. This kind of thinking is understandable, but it is too unrealistic. Our contradictions are irreconcilable. They want us to develop peacefully. , It is impossible to jointly build the SW District to drive the economy of DZ City.

My suggestion to Yaoyang is: "If you don't give them a chance to choose, you must force them to make a choice. Solve the water and electricity in the ancient town as soon as possible. If you don't negotiate with them and don't give us water and electricity, it is a violation of the cooperation agreement and the signed contract. We will Pursue relevant legal responsibilities!"

Yaoyang agreed with me and began to put pressure on the district management committee. If we don’t restore our water and electricity within two days, we will not only withdraw from the project, but also take all legal measures to investigate all economic losses. This loss is not a small one. Number, all of our measures are reasonable and legal.

Two days later, the water and electricity at our construction site were all restored, and they gave us an apology letter, explaining for a long time that it was a municipal engineering failure, and they had been rushing to repair it all the time, but Yaoyang didn't buy it. The construction period was reported to them and a compensation plan was proposed.

The two parties put forward different views on the compensation plan, and a final agreement could not be reached.

In the end, the third meeting between the two sides started, and the venue was set in the city hall. This meeting room is a special place for the National People's Congress, and it was also the first time for me to hold a meeting in such a meeting room.

It’s just that it’s a bit embarrassing during the meeting. Usually, the rostrum sits in a row and a group sits below it. It’s not suitable for either of us to sit on the top. To the other party, we had to temporarily place a long table on the rostrum.

They basically still inspected the original team of our company, but added a secretary of the municipal party committee. As for whether he is a candidate for the secretary general, I don't know!
He was sitting opposite me, a well-proportioned guy with gold-rimmed glasses, handsome features, and a close-fitting suit. This young man with red lips and white teeth was gentle and gentle. He spoke with a Wenzhou accent: "Mr. Chen, all the leaders of Wanzhong, Hello everyone! I am the person in charge of this meeting appointed by the municipal party committee, my name is He Yuxi, and I am currently Mayor Wu's secretary."

I groaned, thinking to myself, it turned out to be the mayor's person.

I nodded slightly, and said politely, "Hi Mi He! Let's get started!"

He Mi nodded, indicating that it was time to start.

The middle-aged woman who had been looking at us disliked her, and said, "Then we will start. This time, we will mainly focus on the compensation for water and power outages in Wanzhong Ancient Town. According to your compensation plan, we will make the following: Response: First, we would like to respond to the reasons for the water and power outages some time ago, and explain the misunderstanding. The underground water pipes in the Heyuan Road section were broken, and there were water and power outages in some parts of the SW area. Through the timely repair of our municipal government, it was realized. The water supply and power supply will be restored within seven working days. Second, this water and power outage was not caused by us, but we have already actively repaired it. Therefore, we do not accept your company's compensation plan! Third..."

Before she finished speaking, Yaoyang stood up and said: "Then what are you talking about? It's not your fault, it's our fault? We have repeatedly begged the city government to provide us with temporary power supply! Don't tell me Said, you dug underground water pipes and cut off the wires in the sky! Don’t you have temporary power supply? Since you are here to make excuses with us, there is nothing to talk about!”

Then a few of us stood up together and started to pack our things.

He Mi who was opposite me looked at me who was motionless, and looked at me with pleading eyes.

I gave a dry cough, and pressed it with my hand, motioning them to sit down first, looked at Yaoyang, Yaoyang suppressed his anger, and sat down.

I said to the woman unceremoniously: "I asked them to sit down because of He Mi's attitude. However, if you continue to talk nonsense like this, I promise to be the first to stand up and leave. We will see you in court." !"

The woman stared at her with a condescending attitude, just about to get mad, but was stopped by He Mi with her hand, and said first: "Ah, Liu Chu just wanted the two parties not to deepen the misunderstanding, we are actually two partners, and everyone agrees." It's all to promote the economic development of DZ City. No one would want such a thing to happen! Mr. Chen, we can sit down and talk slowly about the compensation. We will definitely make compensation, but look at your company's Are the conditions too harsh? You require an independent line for the pipeline network, which puts a lot of pressure on our funds. In addition, you proposed that we open a high-speed intersection two kilometers away. This is a very huge project. The whole road needs to be rebuilt. In fact, the east highway intersection is only about 10 kilometers away from your ancient town, and it takes less than 10 minutes to drive. There is absolutely no need for this! Also, you didn’t mention the road closure , how to solve it? This makes it difficult for us too?"

I said flatly: "The independent pipe network is to prevent such water and power outages from happening again. If we don't agree to this condition, we will go to the bottom of it to see if it is your maintenance of the water pipes that caused our power and water outages! If not, it was caused by human beings. In addition, Director Sun of your district management committee made a threatening phone call recording to me. I think the evidence is convincing. Get up, if I don’t say anything, you can imagine it!”

Sun Xiaodong jumped up all of a sudden, and said furiously, "You are spitting blood! I didn't threaten you! Check it out! Find out if it's caused by a maintenance failure!" I started to feel a little guilty again, and explained: "I also ordered the water and electricity cut off after receiving the maintenance notice from below. I want to protect the safety of the construction workers!"

I snorted coldly and said, "Are you sure you can take responsibility for what you said! Then we will show the information we have to the media! You don't know how powerful you are, do you?"

Sun Xiaodong's face was flushed, and he didn't know how to respond for a while.

He Mi sighed softly and said, "Okay, we can study this matter!"

I resolutely said: "It's not research, but we must give us an answer today, including several other requests we made!"

He Mi said hesitantly: "This...we really study it! I don't have the right either!"

Yaoyang said impulsively: "Since you don't have the power, why don't we talk about it today? After the talk, you don't mean anything. Isn't that a waste of time here?"

I glared at Yaoyang, and Yaoyang hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, I'm a rough person, I speak without thinking, I'm impulsive, please leaders don't take offense!"

I smiled and said to He Mi, whose face became ugly: "I'm sorry! However, what our project manager said is true. I respect you, Mi He, but if you can't decide anything, then we This meeting is really meaningless!"

He Mi's expression softened a little and said: "Let's rest for 10 minutes, and after 10 minutes, we will continue!"

After speaking, he put on his men and all walked out of the meeting room.

Yaoyang walked up to me triumphantly and said: "They can't do it either! I'm so scared that I dare not even say a word!"

I warned Yaoyang in a low voice: "Be careful what you say. If the talk really breaks down, it will be difficult for us. Do you think you can really sue them!? Even if we win, we The project is also ruined, both sides suffer, and it is of no benefit to us! Since ancient times, people do not fight with officials!"

Yaoyang nodded and said: "I just confiscated it for a while, I know it!"

After a while, a young and pretty girl came in, walked up to me, and whispered to me in a low voice: "We, Mayor Wu, would like to ask you to have a private chat."

I hummed, stood up, and followed the girl to the mayor's office.

Mayor Wu came once when we were cutting the ribbon for the project. We met each other, and the deputy mayor always came forward for specific cooperation matters.

Seeing this calm and prudent leader, I was somewhat guilty. I shook hands with a smile and said, "Hello, leader! This is the second time we have met!"

Mayor Wu said with a smile: "Yes! Mr. Chen is hard to please! I have wanted to meet with you for a long time, but I just can't find the time."

I hummed and said, "I know the leader is busy."

Mayor Wu was not polite, and said directly: "Let's not talk about polite words. I am also very clear about the purpose of your visit this time. He Mi also reported the situation to me just now. In this way, Mr. Chen, this matter It was our fault first, but you don’t want to charge too much. The municipal government already has a plan, and you can give the green light to several major projects of yours. I can promise you about the pipe network! Don’t mention it if you think about it! This plan is not only a matter for our municipal government, but also for the provincial government to approve!”

I pretended to be embarrassed and said: "Leader, this is really not our asking price. Have you seen our planning drawings? In order not to conflict with the water park project, we had to open another excavation route for transportation. The gate behind our town , to make a big turn. In this way, the town can be open to traffic on both sides, one side is convenient for tourists coming from the urban area, and the other side is convenient for tourists coming from outside. Now we have changed it. Tourists coming in from the outside have to make a big detour Circle around, and it’s an extra 30 kilometers. Originally, we didn’t have to mention this request, but now we can’t help it!”

Mayor Wu said blankly: "I've heard a little bit about you and the water park! I think everyone will make a concession and open that road. It's okay for the two families to go together! No, it's a mess! Are you so stiff?"

I explained: "Actually, we had resentment at the beginning, but it really has nothing to do with anger later on! If we don't block the road now, it will be difficult in the future. Our door is for exit, and their door is for entry." , after the business starts in the future, there will be traffic jams! Besides, you also know that this road is ours, and we can use it however we want? Can't use it?"

Mayor Wu nodded and said: "I know this! We are also negotiating with Wei Hua on this matter. You might as well wait and see. Give me face. I won't mention this matter for now. I will give you a satisfaction." The answer! What I mean is that everyone should sit down calmly and seriously discuss a specific and feasible plan, which is good for all of us, what do you think?"

Given the steps, of course I have to go down, and said hastily: "Sure, sure, I am here this time for the purpose of friendly cooperation between the two sides! Let you worry about it!"

Mayor Wu smiled and said: "It's easy to say, easy to say! Mi He, he is a subordinate who has been with me for many years. He is reliable. This is also the first difficult matter I entrusted to him. It is resolved, and it is good for everyone. it is good!"

I hurriedly replied: "I understand, I understand! If it's all right, I'll wait for the result!"

Mayor Wu thought for a while and said, "One more thing...Mr. Chen, is your company planning to build a production base in Dongguan, is it reliable?"

I smiled and said: "The group has this plan, but the Guzhen project has become like this, I think it may be necessary to postpone the discussion!"

Mayor Wu hurriedly said: "If there is such an intention, we will definitely cooperate with all our strength!"

I hummed and said: "Thank you for the support of the leader, but I still want to explain our attitude to the leader. If it is still in such a production environment, we will not consider building a factory!"

Mayor Wu's face became slightly displeased, but soon he said with a smile on his face again: "Our staff, there is indeed a problem with the handling of this matter, and I will criticize and educate them. I hope it won't damage our investment environment, I think you should still trust our government's ability to handle affairs!"

I nodded and said with satisfaction: "With your guarantee, of course I believe it!"
