Factory Director Xu was unaware of the inside story of Sanyuan Company.
He looked completely bewildered.
The procurement plan was being pushed to the brink by Shimadzu Corporation.
There was no way to retreat.
He even considered just giving them the money directly.
If we get the equipment back sooner and start production sooner, we can make back the money we lost eventually.
Money goes in one end and out the other.
Only through a balance of income and expenditure can revenue and profit be generated.
If you're going to be a sucker, so be it.
Anyway, few people back in China know the secrets behind the procurement process.
But Minister Xu has been insisting on lowering the price.
The key issue is that after several days of negotiations, we still can't bring it down!
Until I met Wu Changfeng yesterday.
Today, the style seems to have changed!
Unbeknownst to him, Wu Changfeng had taken over the role of the mainland negotiating team and was now in a dominant position.
Minister Xu looked pleased and handed over the negotiation matters to Wu Changfeng.
Factory Director Xu gasped.
All I knew was that Wu Changfeng had a factory in the country.
But I never expected that business negotiations could be so impressive!
They actually made Shimadzu Corporation start the negotiations all over again!
Factory Director Xu looked at Wu Changfeng, who showed no sign of nervousness whatsoever, as if he had simply come to the market to buy groceries.
I'm afraid I won't be able to grasp that kind of composed demeanor anytime soon!
Wu Changfeng stared at President Xiong Yi: "Please give us a quote. Think carefully about what the chairman said to you, and give us a serious quote."
President Yuichi is about to vomit blood!
He said, "Since you've come all this way, why don't you rest for a few more days?"
President Yuichi wanted to stall for time and go to meet with the chairman.
We need to find a way to deal with Wu Changfeng, this menace!
The reason is that Wu Changfeng joined the negotiation team later, meaning he wasn't originally part of the team.
They must have been outsiders invited by Minister Xu.
What right do you, an outsider, have to meddle?
Here's some money for you, you bastard, okay?
Wu Changfeng laughed and said, "President Xiong Yi, if you give us a few days off, we'll just leave. What if I lose my mind and do something I shouldn't—"
"If you can withstand the chairman's wrath, then go ahead."
Wu Changfeng snorted.
Still trying to stall for time?
Can I give you this opportunity?
Nonsense!
President Yuichi's mind was buzzing; it seemed he was being watched.
Oh shit.
If I had known this mainland tour group would be so troublesome, I wouldn't have taken them on!
Damn it.
Now I've gotten myself into a lot of trouble.
President Yuichi closed his eyes for a moment before speaking, "Alright then, we really should have a proper talk. How about this, with the same number of devices, we'll offer a 10% discount."
"Ninety million US dollars, is that price acceptable?"
Factory Director Xu counted on his fingers: "It started out at 98, but after negotiations it became 95."
It's now 10% off.
Yes, not bad, Wu Changfeng's intervention is effective.
As long as some funds are transferred in, there shouldn't be a big problem.
Minister Xu looked at Wu Changfeng silently.
I shook my head slightly. This won't do! It's still too expensive!
Wu Changfeng understood, of course, and looked at the table, saying, "Are you trying to get me to short sell with this offer?"
President Yuichi coughed and said, "Isn't this enough sincerity?"
"It seems President Yuichi wants to sell his own company's stock," Wu Changfeng laughed. "How about we join forces?"
"How about I offer this equipment at full price, as long as we team up to short it?"
President Yuichi quickly shook his head: "That's not what I meant."
"Then you should show some sincerity."
President Yuichi said, "15% off, 15% off is a huge discount, unprecedented in history!"
"I'm giving you this discount for no other reason than to make friends."
Wu Changfeng laughed and said, "Your friend is not very practical. Let me give you a price."
"30% off!"
These words were spoken.
The Shimadzu Corporation staff were immediately furious.
Why the hell don't you offer it at a 90% discount?
Or we can just give it to you for free!
Minister Xu's attempt to pull Wu Changfeng along was a bit excessive.
This isn't just a broken bone, it's a comminuted fracture!
President Yuichi laughed instead: "Isn't it inappropriate for you to joke around in this setting?"
Wu Changfeng said, "Then it's appropriate for you to joke?"
"Ha." President Yuichi gritted his teeth: "20% off! If you're still not satisfied, we'll go our separate ways."
“Okay.” Wu Changfeng stood up first: “Then goodbye! Oh, by the way, if President Xiong Yi needs to find a new job, the mainland welcomes you.”
President Yuichi had never seen a business negotiation like this before.
Don't you even know how to be modest?
He continued, "Okay, okay. So, what do you suggest?"
Wu Changfeng held up his finger: "Four times the price."
"25% off, it can't be too low."
"50% off." Wu Changfeng said, "The matter over there is more important than the matter over there. I hope President Xiong Yi understands."
"30% off!" President Yuichi's teeth were chattering; he was on the verge of a breakdown.
Minister Xu's eyes lit up: 30% off! That's good, that's good!
Now we have enough funds!
Whew~
We can finally complete the mission!
Wu Changfeng ignored Minister Xu's gaze.
It's a bit too early to end it now.
Wu Changfeng reiterated, "40% off, preferably a fixed price. I won't negotiate further. After the transaction is completed, you, President Xiong Yi, will become a member of the chairman's inner circle."
"A misfortune has turned into a blessing in disguise. Congratulations, President Xiong Yi," Wu Changfeng said with a smile.
President Yuichi's face twitched.
He has a point.
