Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 806
"Who does he think he is? The governor of Xiangjiang?"

After leaving New Oriental, Giotto got into the car and shook his head while talking.

In his opinion, since Lin Daoqiu wants to win the exclusive right to operate KFC Xiangjiang, he should please himself.

I didn't expect that this guy would dare to treat me like this, I just don't know what it means.

But in fact, Lin Daoqiu's attitude towards Giotto was normal from beginning to end, and there was nothing inappropriate about it.

If it was Foden who came to discuss this matter with Giotto, this guy would never dare to speak such nonsense.

It was because Lin Daoqiu was a Chinese, so Giotto didn't take him seriously, even if the other party was an internationally renowned movie tycoon.

But what Giotto didn't expect was that Lin Daoqiu didn't intend to just let it go.

He must have the exclusive right to operate KFC Xiangjiang.

After talking with Giotto, Lin Daoqiu called Foden directly.

"I've just met someone from KFC."

"Really? How is it? Did the talk go well?"

In Foden's view, KFC should be happy to cooperate with Lin Daoqiu.

But what Foden didn't expect was that Lin Daoqiu said on the phone.

"Unfortunately, their negotiators have no sincerity at all, so this time the negotiations have completely failed."

Foden was stunned for a moment, he never thought that such a result would happen.

"What's wrong?"

Foden is very curious, why the negotiation fell through after meeting for the first time, this is too nonsense.

Lin Daoqiu briefly explained Giotto's conditions to Foden.

After listening to Lin Daoqiu's words, Foden's face suddenly sank.

Although he didn't plan to participate in KFC's investment, but this time Lin Daoqiu met with KFC, he was responsible for the matchmaking.

Although Foden has not operated the fast food industry before, nor has he invested in KFC.

But he dared to bet that the conditions offered by that guy named Giotto could never be what KFC demanded, and he probably added them on his own.

Thinking of this, Foden's face suddenly pulled down.

"Lin, give me some time, and I will help you find out."

That night, Foden called KFC directly.

When receiving Foden's call, KFC chairman Widis showed a very enthusiastic attitude.

After all, the Lawrence family is a very prestigious family in the United States, with many industries under its banner.

It is definitely a very beneficial thing for KFC to make friends with Foden.

"Dear Mr. Foden, is there anything I can do for you?"

There was a hint of affection in Widis' tone.

But it's a pity that he couldn't see Foden's expression at this time. If he could see it, he probably wouldn't be able to laugh.

"Mr. Widis, I'm sorry to disturb your work. I'm calling because I have something I want to ask you for confirmation."

Contrary to Widis' enthusiastic attitude, Foden's tone was very flat when he spoke, and he knew there was a problem as soon as he heard it.

"Please tell me, if I can help you, I will be very happy."

Although he didn't know why Foden called him suddenly, Widis always felt in his heart that nothing good should happen.

"It's actually very simple. I want to know how much you need to pay to join KFC every year. Shouldn't this be considered a secret?"

Widis originally thought that something big had happened, but he didn't expect that Foden just wanted to know about it.

If that's the case, Widis doesn't need to hide it from Foden.

"Mr. Foden, if you want to join KFC, you need to pay a franchise fee to the company every year, and [-]% of the proceeds will be used as royalties."

The conditions mentioned by Widis are very different from what Giotto said before.

When Foden heard this, he already knew that Giotto was talking nonsense.

"Mr. Widis, as far as I know, the conditions offered by your general manager in Asia, Mr. Giotto, are very different from what you said. Can you tell me the reason?"

Widis didn't understand what Foden meant by this sentence.

How could Giotto offer different conditions from him.

It wasn't until this time that Widis realized that the reason for Foden's dissatisfaction was probably due to Giotto.

"Mr. Foden, I wonder what conditions Giotto offered?"

"Franchise fees plus [-]% of the total sales amount must be handed over every year as royalties."

When Foden finished speaking, Weidis stood up from the chair at once.

Because the condition the other party mentioned was something he had never heard of before.

"Mr. Foden, is there a misunderstanding here?"

At this time, Weidis could only think of a way to rescue him. He didn't want Fu Ji to hate KFC because of this incident.

"Misunderstanding? Mr. Weidis is really joking. By the way, I forgot to tell you that the person negotiating with Giotto is named Lin Daoqiu, the same person who filmed "Mission Impossible", "Home Alone" and "The Mummy" Lin Daoqiu."

Even though Widis has never heard of Lin Daoqiu's name, there are not a few people who have watched these three movies in the United States, and Widis is one of them.

He didn't know before that it was Lin Daoqiu who was going to join KFC, and he left these matters to his subordinates to handle.

"Mr. Foden, this must be a misunderstanding, please give me some time, I will deal with it immediately."

Widis is now in a hurry to find Giotto, he wants to ask that guy what stupid thing he did.

…………

As the president of KFC Asia, Giotto is far away from the power center of KFC, but in Asia, he has the final say on everything.

Giotto was still flirting with his secretary before receiving the call from Widis.

"Chairman, why are you calling me when you have time?"

Giotto hadn't realized what he was about to face when he heard Widis' voice on the other end of the phone.

"Gioiato, you have already talked with Mr. Lin, right? I wonder how this negotiation is going?"

Widis on the other end of the phone sounded the same as usual, so Giotto didn't care too much.

"Chairman, I'm sorry, Mr. Lin has a big objection to the fee paid, so the negotiation has failed."

Giotto didn't expect Widis to make this call and ask about the negotiation.

But fortunately, he had already thought of an excuse before, so he didn't worry about going through the gang at all.

"Gioiato, can you tell me what kind of conditions you offered Mr. Lin?"

Giotto was about to answer the same as before.

But when the words came to his mouth, he suddenly got stuck.

"Franchise fee plus [-]% of the total sales amount must be handed over every year, who gave you the right to do this.

The more Weidis spoke, the angrier he became, he directly cursed: You stupid pig, bastard, if you can't handle this matter, pack up and leave. "
