Chapter 74: Can I be your dad? (4K long chapter, please give me monthly votes)

It was already one o'clock in the morning when the plane landed.

Chen Yansen took a taxi and went straight to the Sheraton Hotel near the Amazon office. After quickly completing the check-in procedures, he took the elevator to the top floor.

"As usual, you sleep on the sofa and I sleep on the bed."

As soon as he entered the room, Chen Yansen took off his windbreaker and threw it on the table, then said to Song Yuncheng, "Hang it up for me!"

"Chen Baopi! What's wrong with opening one more room?" Song Yuncheng nodded with a smile, but he was complaining madly in his heart.

"The person you're going to meet tomorrow is a jerk in the industry. He has a great resume, but no real achievements. You may need to socialize, so be prepared."

Before entering the bedroom, Chen Yansen gave a gentle reminder.

"Okay, I understand." Song Yuncheng just thought that this person was similar to Zheng Chunbin from PaiPai.com and didn't take it too seriously.

The next morning.

After breakfast, the two packed up and took a taxi to Amazon's office in Yancheng.

At this time, Amazon had not yet moved its Asia-Pacific headquarters to Yanjing. This shows that the domestic e-commerce market has not yet received attention from overseas giants.

After getting off the car, registering at the door, getting a visitor's pass, and waiting for about ten minutes, I saw a young man in his twenties striding towards me.

"Mr. Chen, I'm Hollis who contacted you yesterday. Please follow me."

Hollis greeted with a smile.

Chen Yansen responded, and after a brief introduction, the three of them walked into the office building.

The elevator went straight to the 16th floor and opened with a ding.

The treatment was similar to the last time I went to Penguin. As usual, I waited in the conference room for about half an hour.

A middle-aged man about 1.6 meters tall and wearing glasses pushed open the door with a smile, shook Chen Yansen's hand enthusiastically and said, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long, Mr. Chen. Please take a seat."

This man spoke with a Hong Kong accent and had a look of arrogance between his brows. He looked a bit like Zeng Zhiwei, but was thinner than Zeng Zhiwei.

He is Zhang Hanhua, head of Amazon's channel department, whose name is very inconsistent with his appearance.

"Mr. Zhang, I've heard a lot about your company. I've seen your company's contract template. No problem. Next, we'll finalize the commission ratio for each category. If the process goes fast enough, Amazon will be added to FoxTao's mall rebate section by early next month."

After the greetings, Chen Yansen brought the topic back to the cooperation. Since the other party wanted to collect money anyway, it would be better to skip the previous steps and get straight to the point.

"You young people are really capable. When doing business, you should proceed step by step and talk slowly."

Zhang Hanhua snorted lightly and deliberately stalled for time.

"Mr. Zhang, although I am young, I understand the industry rules. Let's finalize the details so that the cooperation plan can be implemented." Chen Yansen said with a smile.

When Zhang Hanhua heard him emphasize the word "industry rules", he knew that the other party was a smart man who knew what was going on. The smile on his face became even bigger. He directly asked Hollis to take out the documents he had prepared in advance and let Chen Yansen take a look.

"Books 5%, digital products 1%, clothing 5%, food 3%, beauty products (S-level 2%, A-level 5%, C-level and D-level and below 8%)..."

Chen Yansen looked through it carefully and felt that it was more sincere than platforms such as Mengbasha and Maibaobao.

Of course, he knew that the other party was not holding back. The more commission FoxTao earned, the more kickbacks Zhang Hanhua could get.

"Mr. Zhang, I am very satisfied with the commission ratio of each category. When can we sign the contract?"

Chen Yansen agreed without bargaining.

"Don't worry, let's talk about it tomorrow. I have booked a table at the Bai family compound tonight. Mr. Chen, you have to let me do my best to be a good host." Zhang Hanhua said with a smile.

What a bastard! He eats and takes away everything at the same time! Chen Yansen cursed secretly. Zhang Hanhua was not in a hurry to sign the contract. He just wanted to get more benefits. He just regarded it as feeding the dog.

On the surface, he remained calm and agreed with a smile, saying, "Mr. Zhang is treating us, so I have to bring a bottle of good wine. See you at the Bai family compound at 6 o'clock this evening."

Chen Yansen specifically mentioned to bring the contract.

Seeing him coming, Zhang Hanhua naturally agreed. He took Chen Yansen to drink a cup of coffee before signaling Hollis to send them away.

After walking out of the Amazon office, Chen Yansen breathed a sigh of relief and cursed, "I haven't been humiliated like this in a long time."

But he had no choice. Zhang Hanhua was so arrogant, he must have a big boss protecting him. Plus, he spoke with a Hong Kong accent, so he must be a group of Hong Kong people.

Chen Yansen had only two choices: give up cooperation or feed him with money.

"Mr. Zhang invited you to dinner, why are you still angry?" Song Yuncheng was confused and did not understand the subtext of the conversation at all.

"He's treating us? What are you thinking! He wants us to book a table and buy some good wine so that he can come and enjoy it."

Chen Yansen rolled his eyes at her and said unhappily.

"I lost my memory? Mr. Zhang clearly said he would treat you to a meal." Song Yuncheng asked.

Chen Yansen smiled but did not mock her. After all, Song Yuncheng was only a sophomore and had seen few of the dirty things in society, so it was normal for her to not understand.

As they walked, he explained to Song Yuncheng the intricacies of his conversation with Zhang Hanhua.

"He wants another 5 percentage point commission?" Song Yuncheng asked in surprise after hearing his analysis.

"This is how the world is. If you pay, the synthesis can be accomplished." Chen Yansen narrowed his eyes and stated calmly.

"Can't you report it to his superior?" Song Yuncheng asked.

"Don't be silly! Of the five points he wants, three may belong to his boss."

Chen Yansen touched Song Yuncheng's head and looked at her like a child.

"It's a bit complicated. I thought the premise of cooperation between the two companies was mutual benefit..." Song Yuncheng's concept collapsed a little, and he murmured in a low voice.

"From a higher level, you are right, but where there are people, there are dirty things. Just get used to it, learn to understand it, and when you can use these methods, you can stand on your own."

Chen Yansen smiled slightly and spoke calmly.

"You are only a freshman, why do you know so much?" Song Yuncheng lowered his head and thought for a while, then suddenly asked.

"Maybe I was born this way. I was born knowing things that you and Zhang Hanhua need to learn later in life."

Chen Yansen shrugged self-deprecatingly, with a nonchalant smile on his face.

Song Yuncheng subconsciously took a step back after hearing this, and then thought again, is Chen Yansen really as bad as he said? No!

Song Yuncheng shook his head secretly, took two quick steps, and followed Chen Yansen obediently.

She understood that Chen Yansen was training her, judging from his performance on the second floor of the Entrepreneurship Park. Normally, he didn't have the patience to explain these things to others.

"Chen Yansen, can I call you Master?" Song Yuncheng asked suddenly.

"Can I be your father?" Chen Yansen asked lightly.

Song Yuncheng was stunned, and chased after him angrily with his hands open like an angry kitten. After thinking for a long time, he did not dare to retaliate against Chen Yansen. He just scratched his back a few times to vent his dissatisfaction.

noon.

The two bought two bottles of Moutai in the mall and had lunch. During the meal, Chen Yansen called Baijiayuan and reserved a private room with a minimum consumption of 8,800 yuan.

If the cooperation is successful, the annual profit will be at least tens of millions, and it is worthwhile to spend tens of thousands of dollars to feed a dog.

In the afternoon, Chen Yansen took Song Yuncheng to the museum and Badaling, and only took a taxi to Baijia Courtyard at 5 pm.

Chen Yansen entered the box first, confirmed the dishes with the waiter, and waited for another half an hour before Zhang Hanhua finally arrived with Hollis.

"Sorry to have kept Mr. Chen waiting for so long."

Zhang Hanhua walked straight to the main seat and sat down. He apologized verbally but did not look embarrassed at all.

At this point, he stopped pretending, took off his coat, picked up a bottle of Moutai and commented: "I didn't like it before, but now that I'm in Yanjing, I've adapted to the local customs."

"Boss Zhang, why don't we settle the matter first, so that we don't get drunk and affect the cooperation."

Seeing that he was still pretending to be confused and his patience was exhausted, Chen Yansen directly pointed out the problem.

"You know the rules, right?"

Zhang Hanhua's face darkened, displeasure flashed in his eyes, and he asked in a deep voice.

"Five points, I understand the industry rules." Chen Yansen opened the Moutai bottle and poured the wine.

"I want ten points." Zhang Hanhua originally wanted to shout eight points, but after glancing at the youthful Song Yuncheng, he changed his mind temporarily.

“Bang—”

Chen Yansen put down the bottle and asked coldly, "Boss Zhang, is this your rule or the new rule?"

The unspoken rules of the industry cannot be broken easily. Zhang Hanhua asks for an exorbitant price. Who would dare to cooperate with him in the future?

"Young people are impulsive. They can talk, so why rush? How can Mr. Chen pour the wine in person? That guy, as an assistant, has no sense at all."

Seeing Chen Yansen’s cold face, Zhang Hanhua laughed to ease the atmosphere.

When Song Yuncheng saw the other party pointing at him, he looked at Chen Yansen and then at Zhang Hanhua. He knew that the key to this cooperation lay in Zhang Hanhua.

She took a deep breath, walked over with the wine, and a stream of clear wine fell into the glass.

Zhang Hanhua stared at Song Yuncheng for a while and said, "Where did you find Mr. Chen's assistant? She's pretty and has a good figure. There's an industry exchange meeting tomorrow night and I'm in need of a dance partner. Would Mr. Chen be willing to give her up?"

Chen Yansen grinned. People like him were rare in the e-commerce circle more than a decade later.

Greasy, greedy, and lustful!

All of them! Zhang Hanhua saw him smile and thought he agreed, so he reached out to pull Song Yuncheng.

Song Yuncheng shrank back and caught a glimpse of the smile on Chen Yansen's face from the corner of his eye. His heart tightened, as if something was blocking it.

With a "bang", a wine glass hit Zhang Hanhua's face!

Chen Yansen lifted the chair, pulled Song Yuncheng over, walked over, grabbed Zhang Hanhua by the collar and sneered: "Shameless! You are nothing! Five points can't satisfy you? Damn, you don't even follow the rules?"

Zhang Hanhua only felt severe pain on his face, his vision was blurred by the wine, and when he came to his senses, he was already pinned firmly on the chair by Chen Yansen.

Seeing this, Hollis tried to pull Chen Yansen away, but he gently pushed her and she sat down on the ground.

"What a great strength!" Hollis was secretly shocked.

"It's none of your business! Get away from me!" Chen Yansen glared at him.

"Chen Yansen, are you crazy? Do you believe I will call the police to arrest you?" Zhang Hanhua struggled for a few times, but found that he could not get free at all, so he could only threaten in a cowardly manner.

"Okay, report it! I recorded every word you said just now. I will spend money to buy you a hot search and make you famous later."

Chen Yansen raised his right hand and slapped Zhang Hanhua's face repeatedly.

"If you dare to do this, who will cooperate with you in the future? The entire industry will ban Fox Tao."

Zhang Hanhua growled, looking extremely embarrassed.

"You dare to ask for a 10% rebate, so why should I not dare? Come, grab the phone and call the police."

Chen Yansen stuffed Zhang Hanhua's cell phone into his hand and said confidently.

Zhang Hanhua always threatened to ban the entire industry. Did he really think that he could fool you just because you were young? "Mr. Chen, please let Mr. Zhang go first. He might have drunk too much, which led to your misunderstanding." Hollis got up from the ground and hurriedly advised.

Who knows if Zhang Hanhua will get carried away and call the police. If the matter gets out of hand, no one will be in trouble.

He cursed in his heart: We had agreed on five points, but he had to shout out the price randomly. Even though he is young, he is not stupid.

"Drunk? In which restroom did you drink like this? I paid the five points according to the industry rules, and I also gave you food and drinks, and I also gave you face. Why do you still want to take advantage of my youth?"

Chen Yansen sneered and mocked mercilessly.

Zhang Hanhua held the phone in his hand with a gloomy expression. He thought Chen Yansen was young and easy to control, but he didn't expect him to have such a hot temper and could turn hostile at any time.

"Mr. Chen, I was wrong. Can you let me go first?" After hesitating for a moment, Zhang Hanhua gave in and begged pitifully.

"roll!"

Chen Yansen loosened his collar and said lightly.

Things have come to this point, and there is no hope for cooperation. If I agree to give him ten points, this guy will definitely ask for fifteen points tomorrow.

Zhang Hanhua picked up his things and retreated to the door with his assistant before he dared to say something harsh: "Chen Yansen, just wait for me. This matter is not over yet."

After saying that, he quickly ran out, fearing that Chen Yansen would catch up and beat him.

"This contract?" Song Yuncheng was at a loss as he held the contract to be signed.

“Lose it!”

Chen Yansen exhaled, sat back down, picked up a piece of runny abalone and put it into his mouth. Seeing Song Yuncheng standing there in a daze, he couldn't help but urge him, "Eat, why are you standing there? This table costs less than ten thousand yuan."

"Can you still eat? Aren't you afraid that Zhang Hanhua will call the police to arrest you?" Song Yuncheng said anxiously with a worried look on his face.

"First, he didn't dare. When he announced a ten-point commission, he broke the rules. Second, only good people are afraid of places like the inspection office. I'm not afraid."

After Chen Yansen finished speaking, he poured himself a glass of wine and immersed himself in the enjoyment.

"I'm sorry, it's my fault that the company failed to get this project?" Song Yuncheng whispered.

"You thought he wanted a dancing partner for the cocktail party, but he actually wanted a bed partner. You're so stupid." Chen Yansen scolded.

Upon hearing this, Song Yuncheng looked straight at Chen Yansen, and then he understood the second reason why he was angry.

"Then shall we go back to Xucheng tomorrow?" Song Yuncheng asked cautiously. She was afraid that Chen Yansen was just pretending to be calm at this moment.

"No rush, let's have dinner first. Dong is also in Yanjing, let's go visit him tomorrow." Chen Yansen answered slowly.

At this time, Liu Qiangdong must be having a hard time, lacking both money and traffic.

It is better to provide timely help than to add icing on the cake. The daily active users of FoxTao are approaching one million. Even if it is not one-third of that of Dongfang, it is close to one-fifth.

This is enough to make the other party take it seriously.

After all, idiots like Zhang Hanhua are a minority.
