rebirth of change

"Oh, so that's the case, it's really difficult, so let's do this, I can't seem too stingy, 1000 million US dollars, is this big enough?", Chen Kangjie couldn't be too stingy, all of a sudden Raise the aid level to tens of millions of dollars.

Payne finally felt more comfortable. He would be much more interested if he could talk at the level of tens of millions. If Chen Kangjie still embraced the increase of hundreds of thousands of dollars, then he would really not be interested in talking further. It would be a waste of time. .

"It's interesting to be able to talk on this basis. In fact, the Olympic Games is a super-large party. It should be a very interesting and beneficial thing to be able to perform at this party. What's more, with your identity, you will definitely You are the protagonist of this show, no matter what the final result is, I think you will be the focus of the whole world, for sure, the media and the audience will have the greatest interest and attention in you," Payne continued to seduce and encourage Chen Kangjie, But he still has no confidence in Chen Kangjie's ability to achieve good results.

"Haha, according to that, I should be the one who charges, but now I'm the one who pays," Chen Kangjie said with a laugh.

"With more attention from around the world, I think your efforts will be rewarded in excess. Among other things, just advertising endorsements is a lot of money, and there are other uncertain benefits." Payne's entire The body leans back directly on the seat back, which is very comfortable.

Chen Kangjie thought to himself, if I want to shoot an advertisement, I have already done it, why wait now to use your Olympic Games to hype it up. As for the extra benefits, many I can get it even if I don’t participate in the Olympic Games.

Thinking so, Chen Kangjie would definitely not say that, "Mr. Payne, what do you think? How much more should I increase? Don't ask for too high a price. It's not good if it exceeds my tolerance." Chen Kangjie also leaned comfortably on the armchair, lazily.

Outside the window at this time, the lights of Atlanta were shining brightly. Against the backdrop of the lights, there were some reddish clouds floating in the sky.A soothing Schubert serenade was played in the dining room at this time, making people feel relaxed and comfortable.

"5000 million US dollars, you can definitely earn it back. I believe that companies like Coca-Cola and IBM will definitely ask you to shoot commercials and endorsements," Payne said with certainty.

"The problem is, I don't want to shoot commercials. I participate for fun, and making money is not my goal. Or if I spend some time writing another book, I may be able to earn the advertising fees they give, but it takes time. ", Chen Kangjie defended himself.

"Mr. Chen, aren't you doing it for money? No matter what people do in the world, they must have a purpose and pursuit. Then why do you do these things? Including writing books."

"Playing is just for fun. Maybe you don't understand, but that's what happened. There is a scholar in our country named Wang Shixiang. He is also a collector and appraiser of cultural relics. He is very good at playing. He does things for fun. , Realize my own value in the process of playing, I am not as good as this old man, but I also want to learn", Chen Kangjie pulled out examples in order to make himself look good.

This old man made Jingshi's "small skills" boarded in the "Hall of Elegance". He can not only play, but also write. He plays with things and researches things. He is known as "the number one player in the capital".Wrote a lot of books, and finally became a master.

"Is there really such a person?" Payne certainly didn't know Wang Shixiang, so he was a little suspicious.

There are many scholars who are economical and economical, both at home and abroad, but there are very few who aim at playing, and who can become famous, become famous, and become scholars.

"Of course it's true. My temperament is like that of a child. Look at me. I'm just like me. We're the same kind of people. Let's not talk about it. Look, a person who plays like me can spend tens of millions of dollars. It's possible, but you actually want 5000 million US dollars, sir, don't you think it's a bit cruel?" Chen Kangjie didn't want to talk too much about those nonsense, so he brought the topic back.

"This... This doesn't seem to be a reason, does it? What if everyone else uses it in the name of playing? Could we also provide it?" Payne felt that Chen Kangjie's reason was far-fetched.

"Hehe, if that's the case, I think you should wish for it. If you have 100 people like this, you will earn a billion dollars. If you have 1000 people, you will earn 100 billion dollars. I can't believe how many people will do this. Such a stupid thing", Chen Kangjie laughed easily.

"5000 million US dollars, it can't be less, no matter how much less, I agree, and our organization committee will not agree, this is not entirely a matter of my own decision." Payne thinks that Chen Kangjie is not a big man, but he is too talkative Yes, continuing with him would be a waste, so I simply reduced it by another [-] million.

Chen Kangjie's increase was far less than that of Payne's reduction. This was because Chen Kangjie was patiently testing Payne's bottom line step by step. Only when he knew his bottom line could Chen Kangjie hit a hit.Otherwise, if he raised the price randomly, if it exceeded Payne's bottom line, he would be at a loss. Chen Kangjie was negotiating almost according to the routine of doing business.

Through Payne's price reduction and words, Chen Kangjie speculated that he may have reached his bottom line, so he planned to use the best move to directly force the opponent's cards to become clear.

"Mr. Payne, you can do this, and I don't want to embarrass you. What we need is a win-win situation, right? As for me, since I like to play, I'm not so stingy. Just like this, if I participate in one event, it's only 1000 million US dollars , What do you think? This is fair and reasonable, and the price is directly calculated according to the project." Chen Kangjie put his hands on the table and said, staring at the other party.

"This is not a question of the number of projects, but a question of personnel. You are a person, no matter how many projects you participate in or you are a person. What the outside world pays attention to is how many people we have given such privileges, not how many projects you have participated in. If you're only doing the 100 meters, you're giving $1000 million, but the risk is the same on our side."

"Okay, then I will participate in at least three events. This is already 3000 million US dollars, is it enough? The sponsors of major American companies don't pay much more than me, right? They still need to use the Olympic logo and need your cooperation Ads. I don’t want anything.” Chen Kangjie took another small step back.

"Mr. Chen, I really don't have much time to talk to you like this." Payne stood up and held out a hand, "5000 million US dollars, one dollar less than this figure, we can't even talk about it, please ask Gao Ming, we And figure it out on your own."

"Haha, it's refreshing, it's up to you, Mr. Payne, sit down, sit down, I agree, just the 5000 million US dollars you said. Aren't we talking about cooperation, why do you have to leave as soon as you stand up, haha Let's talk again." Chen Kangjie stood up, grabbed Payne's hand, and accepted his terms.

The air conditioner in the restaurant is fully air-conditioned, so it is impossible to feel the heat, but Payne wiped it off with a paper towel as if his forehead was sweating.

"Mr. Chen, I hope to have a happy cooperation with you. For 5000 million US dollars, I can only give you three project indicators, and there will be no change. When will you pay?", money, you have to get it in your hand to count, Payne attaches great importance to this point, otherwise, any promise would be a blank sheet of paper.

"It won't change. Three events will be three, 100 meters, triple jump and a middle-distance race. Payment can be made at any time, but there must be an agreement. What if you don't reach an agreement? We will do everything according to the law , the United States is a country ruled by law, and can you give some privileges, the conditions you asked Bob to tell me last time included a lot of privileges." Chen Kangjie was not dumb, nor was he stupid.

"We will quickly complete the legal agreement documents. If we can't complete it, we will refund the full amount. As for the privilege, what do you want?".

"It's not enough to get the full refund. I have to pay the loss of at least 5000 million U.S. dollars. I don't care about the money. What I need is to be successful. It must be. Besides, at least I want to live in a better accommodation, four suites , my guards live with the coaches, etc. In addition, I also need some tickets for the opening ceremony and the tickets for the projects I participate in. It would be better if I can live outside. I hope it will be given to me Provide special transportation services", Chen Kangjie can make a little bit of money.

"Mr. Chen, you have too many requests. Many of them are impossible to meet. They must be treated equally. There are relevant regulations. At most, I will provide you with some tickets." Payne implied that he rejected Chen Kangjie's request.

"1000 million US dollars, how about I add 1000 million US dollars? Is it okay?" Chen Kangjie held out a finger.

The reason why he wants such a privilege is that he is worried that he will be chased and intercepted, and his safety and rest will be threatened. This is a rainy day, so he is willing to add the amount of 1000 million US dollars.

"This... let's... think about it! Remember, we only send out invitations, and you can handle your domestic affairs yourself." With money, the other party's tone changed.

Regulation?The rules of this world are dead, but people are alive, and the investment of money can make the rules come alive.They are responsible for the entire organization and activities, and they can provide all this for any reason, and there is no way for other countries to say anything.

"Hehe, of course, thank you. I hope Mr. Payne's agreement includes these contents." Chen Kangjie took it as his full agreement.

The domestic part is not a problem with Chen Kangjie at all. He only needs to call Zhao Zhibang back, and the Sports Committee will take care of it. Moreover, the domestic side will help to communicate with the National Olympic Committee to reduce the burden on the Olympic Organizing Committee. pressure.

Chen Kangjie was not stingy either. Payne had asked for 3 million US dollars before, but it only cost 6 million US dollars. The remaining 4000 million US dollars, Chen Kangjie donated anonymously to help retired athletes in China, especially those who have not achieved good results. Achievement Sports is a non-governmental charitable organization that provides skills training and injury medical services. It can be regarded as a small contribution to the domestic sports cause.

Four months after signing the agreement with the Atlanta Olympic Organizing Committee, Chen Kangjie got three tickets to participate in the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games.
