Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 1899
Negotiations in business and negotiations in war are completely different things. During the day, the two sides are tit for tat, fighting every clause for the benefit of their respective companies. However, in private, the two sides can communicate with each other and become friends.

When negotiating with Li Yun, Nobuo Tanaka and Ichiro Ozawa spent an entire afternoon talking, but the progress of the negotiation has not been significantly advanced. Originally, I was holding back my stomach, but seeing Li Yun suddenly invite them to a dinner together , which somewhat surprised the two of them.

Japan is a country with a very fast pace of life. After graduating from university and joining the company, many young people seem to have embarked on a fast track. Japan has a deep overtime culture, and its working hours have always been the highest in Asia, but this does not mean that It does not mean that their work efficiency is very high. In fact, Japanese companies generally adopt a lifelong employment system based on seniority, and "grinding foreign workers" has become the norm for many Japanese employees.

And after get off work, many metropolitan employees do not go home immediately, but go to drink and eat with colleagues in the company. Sometimes they drink in a tavern for a whole night, and then go back to work the next day. This is also the reason for many Japanese employees. real-life portrayals.

So when faced with Li Yun's invitation, Nobuo Tanaka and Ichiro Ozawa accepted almost without hesitation, because sometimes drinking with customers is also part of their work, but it is different from the Chinese wine table culture. Not as wild as it appears.

The reason why Li Yun did this is because when she was in Hong Kong, she had received many Japanese business elites, and was occasionally invited to drink. Over time, she also understood the Japanese life and work habits. This time I took the initiative to invite, on the one hand, I want to alleviate the conflict between the two parties, and on the other hand, it is the need to expand the network.

Duan Yun was also present at the evening banquet.

Although the business can be negotiated, Duan Yun also wants to establish a certain personal relationship with the executives of these multinational companies as much as possible, so when Li Yun proposed to invite the Japanese manufacturer delegation to drink with him, Duan Yun also agreed without hesitation, and arranged for his subordinates to make preparations in advance.

On the third floor of the Tianyin Group headquarters restaurant, the relevant banquets have already been arranged in advance. The retired chef from the Guangzhou Hotel has tried his best to prepare a table of his best dishes. The wine served was Duan Yun's favorite Fen wine.

Before coming to the restaurant, Duan Yun changed into a black suit in advance, and combed his hair meticulously. Li Yun also returned to his office, ready to change into a set of clothes, and came to the restaurant on the third floor with Duan Yun.

Tianyin Group's restaurants are quite luxuriously decorated inside. The first floor is the canteen for executives, the second floor is a bar and coffee shop, and the third floor is a VIP room, which usually hosts executives of domestic companies and foreign VIPs.

"Your speed is too fast. You changed your clothes in less than 10 minutes." Seeing that Li Yun had already finished her makeup and came out in a luxurious evening dress, Duan Yun couldn't help but said in surprise.

I have to say that at this moment, Li Yun and Li Yun are completely different people when they go to work during the day. Duan Yun saw her wearing a standard lady's suit at work, dressed very professionally, but at this moment, she is full of jewels, beautiful and moving , like a princess.

"I just changed my clothes, put on some makeup, and re-styled my hair." Hearing this, Li Yun smiled slightly at Duan Yun, and then said, "How is it? Is it pretty?"

In fact, for Li Yun, she often attends parties and banquets of some wealthy local businessmen in Hong Kong, so she is handy for such occasions.

"Not bad!" Duan Yun gave a thumbs up, and then walked towards the restaurant together.

After arriving at the restaurant, seeing Duan Yun's arrival, Nobuo Tanaka, who had been acting rather strong, took the initiative to shake hands with Duan Yun.

Even though Nobuo Tanaka had a sense of superiority when facing Chinese companies, he also showed some respect when facing Duan Yun.

Over the years, with the upsurge of Japanese companies investing in China, Japanese technology companies have also paid more and more attention to the development of Chinese local companies. As the largest private company in mainland China, Tianyin Group has also begun to gain a very high reputation in the Japanese business community. , and Duan Yun himself began to appear frequently in Japanese business media.

From a worker in a state-owned enterprise to becoming the richest man in Mainland China step by step, his experience has made many Japanese people admire him. Although Nobuo Tanaka was serious when they first met, in fact he had already heard about it. There are many deeds about Duan Yun's early career, which I still admire in my heart.

"Mr. Duan, I am very much looking forward to meeting you tonight. I encountered some difficulties in negotiating with your company today..." Tanaka said to Duan Yun with a slight frown.

"Mr. Tanaka, the contract we are negotiating is very important. It is normal to spend more time. There is an old saying in China that good things take time. I believe that both of us will achieve a very satisfactory result in the end." Duan Yunmian Said with a smile.

"Yes, Mr. Tanaka, I believe we can reach a result that is satisfactory to both parties." Li Yun also interjected at this time, only to hear her continue: "However, according to our rules, the welcome dinner should not be discussed as much as possible. Work, I believe that when Mr. Tanaka was in Japan, he didn't like to talk about work with others when he was drinking after get off work at night, right?"

Li Yun would not give Tanaka the opportunity to directly negotiate with Duan Yun, because she knew that Duan Yun had arranged for her to be fully responsible for negotiating with the Japanese representatives. One hurdle can be regarded as a buffer. If Li Yun's talks collapse, then Duan Yun can let other people or directly negotiate with the Japanese side, so as to prevent the two sides from completely losing room for maneuver.

So seeing that Tanaka wanted to bypass himself and negotiate with Duan Yun directly, Li Yun immediately reminded him.

"Yes, we are all successful people. Life and work must be separated. Negotiations can be done during working hours. The main reason for inviting Tanaka and his party here tonight is to enhance our friendship." Duan Yun said Time is also said with a smile.

Duan Yun and Li Yun seemed to have a natural tacit understanding. When they faced the Japanese delegation, they were impeccable in every word and deed.
