One of the men, in his forties, immediately asked the flight attendant, "Shall we board now? Our group isn't all here yet."
"Sir, this is a shared charter flight from COMAC, and it is scheduled to take off at 8:40."
"We're not all here yet, why are you flying? I paid dozens of times more than first class, and this is the service I get? You're not allowed to board now. We can only fly when everyone is here," he shouted unreasonably.
"Excuse me, sir, there are 35 passengers on this flight. Please board first."
"Are you trying to pull this on me? Tell the plane to wait. Nobody's boarding until everyone's here. If you piss me off, believe me, I'll blow up your plane!!" the man cursed, clearly implying that he'd spent so much money, and it wasn't the plane waiting for him, but rather him waiting for the plane.
They made a racket and blocked the boarding gate, preventing anyone from boarding.
Lu Feng and his two companions were blocked from boarding the plane. When General Manager Liang saw this, he was overjoyed. It was truly a stroke of luck. He hurriedly said, "Mr. Kuntai, we are willing to show our sincerity. The price can be as low as one hundred and sixty US dollars. We will sign a contract directly, and the deposit will only be twenty percent. The rest of the funds will be paid after the goods arrive."
Lu Feng stood there without saying a word, while President Liang kept talking. A few minutes later, Zhang Rujing arrived first. President Liang looked at Zhang Rujing, realizing that he had already talked until his throat was dry, but the other party was not listening at all.
"Why didn't you leave?" Zhang Rujing asked as he stepped forward.
"They've started making a ruckus," Lu Feng said, sounding rather helpless.
Seeing the situation, Zhang Rujing secretly thought it was a brilliant move. He also helped persuade Lu Feng and offered to act as a mediator. As the two were talking, Zhang Zhongmou arrived. The over sixty-year-old Zhang Zhongmou was out of breath from running. When he saw Lu Feng, he apologized and explained what had happened.
“We are sincere and hope to be given another chance. Even if we get the Texas Instruments order through Nokia, the shipping and order processing time will be longer than ours. As for the price, we can make concessions.” Zhang Zhongmou had no other choice at this point.
Faced with the onslaught of the crowd, Lu Feng seemed somewhat hesitant. Zhang Zhongmou called Zhang Rujing aside and talked for a while. Zhang Rujing returned to Lu Feng's side and whispered, "One hundred and fifty US dollars is their cost price. This time it's really the bottom line, and they'll sign a formal contract directly."
After listening to this, Lu Feng called the flight attendant over and asked if they could take off. The flight attendant said helplessly that she had already notified the police and that they had to rule out any safety issues with the aircraft first, so they could not take off today.
“Perhaps this is fate.” Lu Feng sighed and looked at President Liang and Zhang Zhongmou, saying, “Then let’s talk again. I hope you can really show your sincerity, otherwise we’ll have to leave tomorrow.”
"must!!"
After leaving the airport, both parties boarded a business vehicle and headed straight to the group's headquarters. This time, it was clear that the initiative in the negotiations was no longer in their hands. Lu Feng raised many requirements regarding the product and price, including details such as delivery time and final payment.
Although some things were difficult, they agreed to everything. For them, this order was about making a difference, selling their products, and letting other manufacturers see the quality of their products.
The process was swift; the two parties signed a formal agreement that same day. The agreement covered one million products at $150 each, totaling $150 million. The deposit was 20% of the total amount. The product delivery was divided into three phases: 200,000 units in November, 400,000 units in January of the following year, and the remaining units in April. The final payment would be settled when the second batch of products was delivered.
Everything went so smoothly it was unbelievable. We had dinner together that night, and Boss Liang said that Boss Cai had been fired, so there would be absolutely no problem this time. All the previous troubles were because this person was interfering and ruining our brotherly relationship.
Lu Feng didn't say much about it, only hoping that they would deliver the goods on time according to the delivery standards.
That evening, Lu Feng and his two companions booked tickets to Bangkok for the next day. The following morning, General Manager Liang personally escorted them to the airport and assured them that the first batch of products would definitely arrive at the port of Bangkok on schedule two months later.
"Thank you for your hard work. I hope this is a good start. When our phones are sold all over the world, I believe we will be each other's achievers." Lu Feng shook his hand and said a few polite words before turning around and heading towards the boarding gate.
