Chapter 151 Design Fee



"Smith, you are so mean."

"I heard that you made a lot of money when you returned to China last time. We are all brothers, why don't you share your ways to make money?"

"I heard that you bought a batch of bags from China and brought them back to your country to sell. Where did you buy the bags? Could you introduce the supplier to us?"

"Is it this Oriental lady?"

Several foreigners looked at Jiang Wanyue.

Jiang Wanyue showed her standard smile and greeted in English: "Hello."

"He can speak English, so he must be a supplier!"

"Hello, ma'am. Do you have any bags? Give me some too!"

"I'll pay you double what that Smith guy gave you."

"I'll pay three times as much!"

Seeing a group of foreigners surrounding them, Xiang Lingxiao didn't understand what was going on, so he quickly pulled Jiang Wanyue up and protected her behind him.

Smith was even more anxious. He rushed over, put his hand on the chest of the man in front, and frowned, saying, "Mike, Chinese people are reserved. Your enthusiasm will scare my friend."

"Smith, you can't be the only one making money." Mike said dissatisfiedly, "Your bag is selling like hot cakes in France, 3,000 yuan each, so many people want to buy it but can't. You can't eat this piece of cake by yourself, why don't you share it with us old friends..."

After hearing this, Jiang Wanyue realized that she had become younger.

She thought the bag would probably be worth ten times as much in France, but unexpectedly, it was worth a thousand times as much.

In recent years, France has suffered from severe inflation. Although the franc is not as valuable as before, it is still more expensive than the RMB. Three thousand francs is approximately equivalent to about 3,500 yuan.

The factory price is twelve yuan and the selling price is three thousand five hundred yuan.

No wonder Smith is so enthusiastic!

Smith turned around and winked at Jiang Wanyue.

Jiang Wanyue smiled and said to the group of foreigners: "Mr. Smith and I were talking about some personal matters. It has nothing to do with business. You misunderstood."

From a foreigner's perspective, Jiang Wanyue's appearance is definitely outstanding.

They thought that maybe the Chinese American wanted to hook up with Smith Immigrants, and they were ruining their plans.

So they all apologized quickly and walked out.

Smith breathed a sigh of relief and walked out with Mike in his arms: "I'll go drink with you guys after I finish talking. You guys go out first and don't scare my friends."

The office door was closed, blocking out the noisy sounds.

"Jiang, thank you so much." Smith sat back down. "I almost forgot one thing. I want to sign a confidentiality agreement. I hope you can keep the order I placed with you confidential throughout the process."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Smith. Our bamboo weaving factory does business with foreign countries. We have to report the foreign exchange we earn to the State Administration of Foreign Exchange. I'm afraid I can't keep this a secret." Jiang Wanyue said, "But I think we can sign a design draft protection agreement. In other words, the pattern I designed for Mr. Smith will never be disclosed to anyone else. In France, this should be called intellectual property protection?"

Smith was a little shocked.

This young oriental woman actually knows about intellectual property protection.

Jiang Wanyue continued, "In our country, the same style of goods can be sold to anyone. If the product I designed can only be sold to Smith, then I think Smith should pay an extra design draft protection fee. We Chinese will not charge money that we shouldn't charge, such as expedited fees. We will not charge a penny less for what we should charge. I hope Mr. Smith can understand."

Smith was convinced by her.

She was the one who took the initiative to propose reducing the previous 5% expedited fee to 1%, which shows that she is not a cunning businessman.

And her current proposal is also valid in France.

Thinking of this, Smith said, "I'll pay a thousand yuan for each drawing. Is that okay?"

Jiang Wanyue smiled: "Of course no problem."

The two parties reached an agreement and drafted a contract on the spot. Smith asked his assistant to print it out, and both parties signed it and paid the money.

Accountant Wen did not know about francs before, but she had made up for her knowledge in this area during this period. When she took the large stack of francs handed over by the other party's assistant, she was stunned for a moment, then quickly came to her senses and began to count the amount and converted it into RMB. The total amount was more than 20,000 yuan.

She was surprised and asked, "Director Jiang, why are there so many?"

Smith kept talking to Jiang Wanyue, so she had no time to explain the situation to Accountant Ling Xiaowen. She asked Smith to wait for a moment and turned around to say, "Ten percent deposit, one percent expedited fee, and four thousand yuan design fee."

Xiang Lingxiao covered his chest.

By this calculation, it means that their bamboo weaving factory has earned more than 200,000 in foreign exchange.

I heard that many large factories in the province were almost worried about getting 100,000 yuan in foreign currency, but Director Jiang easily got nearly 200,000 yuan.

People really cannot be compared.

He is now extremely glad for his original choice. With Director Jiang around, the bamboo weaving factory will surely prosper in the future!

After all the procedures were completed, both parties breathed a sigh of relief.

Smith said enthusiastically: "Jiang, we have reached a big deal, we should sit down and have a meal together. It's exactly twelve o'clock, time for lunch, I'll treat you."

Jiang Wanyue then remembered that she had a second mission.

She smiled and said, "Mr. Smith is an honored guest in China, and I am the host. It is only appropriate for me to treat him to this meal."

"Oh, no, no, no, it's my turn to treat." Smith said, "The second floor of the foreign guesthouse is a restaurant with a lot of delicious Chinese food."

Jiang Wanyue smiled and said, "I guess the French are not used to eating Chinese food. I guess Mr. Smith must have been hungry often when he was in China."

Smith was a little embarrassed: "Indeed, the taste difference is too big. I can still eat some noodles."

"How about this? I'll make lunch for Mr. Smith." Jiang Wanyue said, "With the help of Mr. Smith, our factory has developed rapidly. I also want to express my gratitude. Please give me this opportunity."

Smith became interested: "Come on, I'll take you to the restaurant and ask the chef to make some room for you."

Jiang Wanyue followed him up to the second floor. It was dinner time and the place was very lively.

Although this is a guesthouse for foreign guests, most of the food here is Chinese. The few foreign foods are basically steak, bread, etc.

But fortunately, there is red wine.

For some French dishes, red wine is the soul.

Xiang Lingxiao and Accountant Wen also came up. They were shocked to see hundreds of kinds of food on the table, ready to be eaten at will. They asked hurriedly, "Just like that, just eat whatever you want?"

"This is called a buffet." Jiang Wanyue explained, "It's popular among foreigners to eat this way, and it's easier and more convenient for the guesthouse to prepare meals this way."

Xiang Lingxiao and Accountant Wen really broadened their horizons and followed him to the kitchen in shock.
