Manufacturing Empire in the Valley

Chapter 821 Give You a Sports Car
Niu Xiaoqiang has already paid Kailina more than 3 US dollars in remuneration for searching patents, which is enough to buy a high-end car in the United States.

Niu Xiaoqiang nodded and asked curiously, "Are you going to buy a second-hand car or a new one?"

"I'm going to buy a new car, a slightly upscale one. After all, I'm the president of the company, so I still have to be careful about my face. If it's too shabby, people will look down on me when I go out to negotiate."

Niu Xiaoqiang has always thought that Americans do not pay attention to the so-called face, this is the patent of the Chinese people.He was quite surprised to hear this remark: "Do Americans also pay attention to face?"

Karina shook her head: "The face I'm talking about doesn't refer to vanity, but to showing strength. If you are riding a bicycle to negotiate a business worth 1000 million US dollars with a client, will the other party question your strength? ? If you take a private jet to discuss this business, people will naturally not have any doubts. I saw this theory from textbooks when I was studying for an MBA degree. Personally, I think it makes sense."

Niu Xiaoqiang said loudly: "That's true. When negotiating business, if you can overwhelm the other party in terms of momentum, you can get twice the result with half the effort. If you do it too shabby, you will be overwhelmed by the other party in terms of momentum. This is not very good for negotiations. favorable."

When Niu Xiaoqiang said this, he got back to the topic: "Have you decided what kind of car you want to buy?"

Karina replied: "I am going to buy a BMW, and now I have $[-] in cash, which is enough to buy a mid-level BMW."

Hearing the name BMW, Niu Xiaoqiang couldn't help thinking of the Williams he met when he participated in the autumn Canton Fair last year. This Williams is a high-level executive of BMW and looks very prestigious. The two even exchanged business cards. A verbal agreement was made on future cooperation intentions.

Since Niu Xiaoqiang doesn't have the strength to cooperate with the other party at all, he never took the initiative to contact Williams, and he doesn't know if the other party has changed his number.

Niu Xiaoqiang hesitated and said, "I heard that BMW is a high-end car brand. Do you really have enough money?"

Kailinna smiled and said, "When I buy a car in the name of the company, I can enjoy the tax exemption policy, so the money is still enough."

Niu Xiaoqiang thought for a while and said, "Why don't I give you a car instead of buying it yourself."

Kailinna glanced at Niu Xiaoqiang, and asked straightforwardly: "Do you want to take extra care of me again?"

Niu Xiaoqiang shook his head quickly: "You misunderstood, as the boss of the company, I should provide benefits to senior management."

Karina seemed to accept this statement, and after thinking about it, she suggested: "If you really want to provide benefits to me, a high-level executive, it's best not to buy a car that is too high-end."

Niu Xiaoqiang was surprised: "Why?"

"Because a car that is too high-end generally needs to be equipped with a dedicated driver, the presidents of most companies will not personally drive a high-end car to discuss business with people, unless..."

"Unless what?"

"Unless the president is driving a sports car, if it is a sports car, there is no such concern."

Karina explained here: "Don't get me wrong, I'm just stating a fact to you, and I don't mean to ask you to provide me with a sports car."

If it were any other woman, Niu Xiaoqiang would probably not believe such an explanation, but Kailinna is different, she is definitely not the kind of woman who uses her body for her own benefit.

Niu Xiaoqiang really wanted to take care of Kailinna, but he was worried that she would be dissatisfied with it.After pondering for a moment, Niu Xiaoqiang thought of a compromise plan: "How about this, you pay [-] US dollars yourself, and the company will help you with the rest, and you go to buy a sports car, which is still attached to the Under the name of the company, it will belong to your personal use in the future, do you think it will work?"

Kailinna hesitated: "The company has just been established, isn't it inappropriate to spend money like this?"

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled and said: "You are the actual manager of Hunter Company, and you are in charge of all the business of the company. As the boss, I should give you better treatment. Besides, don't you want to let the former Do colleagues see your current success?"

The last sentence played a key role. Kailinna's biggest characteristic is that she is too strong. Recalling the scenes of her resignation, she felt an uncontrollable resentment churning in her heart.

After a little hesitation, Kailinna nodded: "Okay, I accept your proposal, but I also have my own principles. The company and I will pay half of the money for the car. I don't want to take advantage of the company. If I If you don’t have enough money, just owe it temporarily, and deduct it directly when you pay your salary.”

Niu Xiaoqiang hummed: "That's it. You can buy any sports car you want at that time. As long as you like it, the company will pay for it."

Karina nodded and stopped talking. After the car arrived at the airport, the two waited for George at the exit gate holding a handwritten sign.

At a quarter past ten, George stepped out of the exit gate.He saw the sign in Niu Xiaoqiang's hand at a glance, walked up to Kailinna with a smile, and introduced himself, "I am George from Texas Mechanics, and you are the president of Kailina, right?"

George ignored Niu Xiaoqiang directly. No wonder he didn't pay attention to Niu Xiaoqiang. It was because Niu Xiaoqiang was too young and dressed in ordinary clothes. He looked like a handyman.Unlike Kailinna, she was well dressed and looked like a business elite.

Kailina smiled and stretched out her right hand: "Mr. George, I am Kailina, this is—"

Kailinna originally wanted to introduce the identity of Niu Xiaoqiang's boss, but she was interrupted by Niu Xiaoqiang before she finished speaking: "Mr. George, I am a technician from Hunter Company, and my name is Niu Xiaoqiang. Nice to meet you, Polytechnic Institute."

Kailinna looked at Niu Xiaoqiang suspiciously, wondering why he forcibly dropped his status from boss to technician.

Niu Xiaoqiang did this to increase the chances of a successful negotiation. If he said he was the boss, George would definitely have something in his mind.At present, the Chinese are lagging behind Western countries in terms of technology. If George knew that Niu Xiaoqiang, a Chinese, was the boss, he would definitely have doubts about the double donkey head oil extraction machine.

Although the superiority of the double donkey head oil extraction machine can still be proved afterwards, it will inevitably add unnecessary trouble to the negotiation process.As for why he reported the name of MIT, it was mainly to show part of his strength, lest George look down on him.

In addition, the status of MIT students is also very suitable for the image of the hunter company technicians. This is the most powerful science and engineering university in the world. Many big companies are rushing to recruit MIT students. Being able to become MIT students is a challenge in itself. A manifestation of strength.
