820 world-class influence
With such a precious drunken red dust, Xiao Yao didn't even accept the money, and Scott's eyes showed a slight look of excitement.
What moved him was, of course, not the 100 million yuan per year wine purchase money that Xiao Yao exempted him, but the friendship that Xiao Yao released through this incident.
Their Morgan family spent such a big price, and they prepared a special plane of $3 billion for Xiao Yao, and carefully selected gifts for Xiao Yao's family, for what? Isn't it just to win Xiao Yao's favor?
Now it seems that their Morgan family has paid so much and has achieved some results. Xiao Yao was willing to share a bottle of top-notch wine just for his own family, which obviously regarded him as a friend. Although it should be just a normal friend, this is already a big improvement.
On the second day after Scott's arrival in Hanzhou, the itinerary was to visit the Fairy Palace Villa, and Xiao Yao personally accompanied him.
Even the extremely discerning and well-informed Scott was shocked when he saw the renovated Asgard Villa, such a fairyland on earth is simply beyond the limits of human imagination.
In particular, the air quality of Asgard Villa is the most important point for him, when a person's wealth reaches a certain level, then his main concern must be health problems.
Especially after Scott's father became seriously ill, he had a deeper understanding of health. For example, a breath of air in Asgard Villa makes the body feel as if it can be washed, and as long as you experience it firsthand, you will inevitably want to live in such an environment for a long time.
After visiting Asgard Villa and dining at Asgard Hotel, Scott formally proposed to Xiao Yao that he wanted to conduct a business negotiation in the afternoon, and the direction of cooperation included the introduction of Julingmu, the cooperation and promotion of agricultural technology, and the North American expansion of Asgard Hotel and Xunweizhai.
Scott's visit to Hanzhou was originally a private trip, and he had no intention of discussing business cooperation, his purpose was originally to use the contact in the past few days to build a good relationship with Xiao Yao, and he implored him to go to the United States for medical treatment before leaving. But everything at Asgard Hills turned his perception upside down, and he felt the need to use the opportunity of this visit to have a business negotiation.
Of course, his real purpose is to gather spirit wood, followed by the introduction of the agricultural specialties of the Immortal Palace Villa, as for the other cooperation, it is just incidental.
This business negotiation was too hasty, and Xiao Yao also had no preparations, so he could only temporarily transfer a few elite soldiers from the management personnel in Hanzhou to participate in this negotiation.
After the afternoon negotiation began, Scott went straight to the point, "Mr. Xiao, I already have a deep understanding of the magic of the Gathering Spirit Wood, our Morgan family wants to buy the Gathering Spirit Wood from Asgard Villa, I don't know what kind of conditions you have?"
Of course, Xiao Yao would not sell the Gathering Spirit Wood, he was the only one in this world who could cultivate ordinary spirit plants, and even if he agreed to sell it, it would be impossible for the Morgan family to succeed in cultivating it.
And the price is also a big problem, the price of ordinary spirit plants is definitely a sky-high price, although the Morgan family is the world's top chaebol, they really don't necessarily have the strength to buy a large amount of spirit wood. At best, they buy a small amount of research and it will definitely not end up with any results.
"It's definitely not okay to buy, the Gathering Spirit Wood can only be leased to the outside world, if your Morgan family wants to introduce the Gathering Spirit Wood, we can talk about the price of the lease. Xiao Yao said.
"Why is Mr. Xiao reluctant to sell to the outside world? Is he worried that we will conduct research on the Gathering Spirit Wood that Mr. Xiao sold? If Mr. Xiao is worried about this, then I am very puzzled, even if we lease the Gathering Spirit Wood, can't we also conduct research?" Scott was a little puzzled by Xiao Yao's attitude.
"I'm not worried about your research on the Gathering Spirit Wood, I don't agree that the sale of the Gathering Spirit Wood is for your consideration. The Gathering Spirit Wood can only survive for a long time in a specific environment such as Asgard Mountain Villa, and once it is transplanted to other environments, it can survive normally for a year at most. We at Asgard Villa do not sell Juling Wood to the outside world, but only lease it to the outside world, just because we are responsible for our customers, and we can't just think about making money. ”
After listening to Xiao Yao's explanation, Scott knew what the real hole cards in Xiao Yao's hand were.
Although Xiao Yao was very frank and pointed out that the Gathering Spirit Wood would wither after leaving the Immortal Palace Villa for a year, he still wanted to give it a try.
But he didn't intend to hide this, so he said very frankly: "If Mr. Xiao doesn't object, I still want to study the Gathering Spirit Wood, even if the final result is failure." If Mr. Xiao doesn't think that my idea offends you, I don't know if you are willing to sell us a part of the Gathering Spirit Wood? Of course, the demand for the Gathering Spirit Wood used in the research will definitely not be too much, and you can increase the price appropriately. ”
"As you just said, even if you choose to lease the Spirit Gathering Wood, you can still secretly conduct research, which is difficult for me to control. If you want to buy the Gathering Spirit Wood and are willing to bear the consequences of dying in a year, then of course I am not against selling it. As for the sale price, we are friends after all, there is no need to increase it in particular, the sale price is 100 million yuan per plant. I don't know how many Spirit Gathering Trees you plan to buy?"
For Xiao Yao, it was still relatively easy to cultivate an ordinary spirit plant-level spirit tree, and the money he would make from selling the spirit wood would definitely be more, and he hoped that the more demand from the Morgan family, the better.
"Then let's order 100 plants for the time being, but we won't buy these 100 spirit trees for research at one time, after all, the one-year survival period is too short, and we will definitely buy them one after another according to the research process. ”
Scott's request was not excessive, and Xiao Yao directly agreed.
The big order of 10 billion is a big harvest even for Xiao Yao.
Although the purchase price of the Gathering Spirit Wood is a sky-high price, compared to the importance of the Gathering Spirit Wood, Scott is completely able to accept it.
Scott was still quite satisfied with the purchase of the Gathering Spirit Wood so quickly, so next, he was most concerned about the rental price of the Gathering Spirit Wood.
"Mr. Xiao, I heard that the rental price of Julingmu is 1 million yuan per year, I wonder if our Morgan family can get more favorable conditions?"
Although this afternoon's business negotiation was decided by Scott on the fly, one noon was enough time for him to get some necessary information.
After all, the amount of spirit wood used for scientific research is limited, even if the purchase price is higher, the final cost will not be too high. However, the spirit wood needed for daily life is a long-term demand, although the rental price is lower, but because of the large demand and long time, the final cost is likely to be a sky-high price. Even for the world's top chaebol like the Morgan family, this may be a lot of money, and he must be cautious about it, and the lower the final rental price, the better.
Xiao Yao saw Scott's careful thinking very thoroughly, he shook his head and said: "You can tell the price of 1 million, it seems that you have collected some relevant information in advance, but the information you have collected is not comprehensive, the price of our Asgard Villa leasing a spirit tree is 10 million yuan per year."
Up to now, because the number of cultivated spirit trees is too small, it can only be supplied to our domestic government agencies for the time being, and it can only meet a small part of their needs, and it may take at least two years to fully meet the demand.
The purpose of cooperating with these units is not to make much money, but to have a good relationship with these departments, so we have made a big concession on the price and directly gave a discounted price.
If your Morgan family wants to lease the Gathering Spirit Wood from our Asgard Villa, this is a normal business cooperation, and the price can only be 10 million yuan per plant per year, which is sorry, I hope you can understand. ”
Considering the influence of the Morgan family in the world, Xiao Yao will definitely give some concessions, but the concessions cannot be too big, and at the beginning of negotiations, he must not give in immediately.
If it was a normal business cooperation, Scott would definitely find all kinds of reasons to ask Xiao Yao to give him greater favors, but considering Xiao Yao's special status, the cooperation between the Morgan family and Xiao Yao must still be based on winning his favor and friendship.
Scott pondered for a moment and said, "Mr. Xiao, our Morgan family's demand for spirit wood must far exceed that of other enterprises and individuals other than the state, although I have no way to count the exact number of demand now, but I think it will definitely not be less than two thousand." That's not a small amount, right? Do you think you can get some discount on this magnitude?"
Scott said this, obviously putting the decision in the hands of Xiao Yao, Xiao Yao said generously: "The magnitude of Qianzhu is indeed a lot, and we are friends, so let's give you a 20% discount, this is already the biggest concession I can make, do you think you are still satisfied?"
The pricing power was originally in Xiao Yao's hands, even if Xiao Yao didn't give a discount at all, Scott didn't have a way, Xiao Yao finally gave a 20% discount, Scott's face was there, he said happily: "Thank you Mr. Xiao for your generosity, such a big discount, I am very satisfied." ”
After the matter of introducing the Gathering Spirit Wood was basically negotiated, the only thing that Scott really cared about was the purchase of those agricultural specialties in Asgard Mountain Villa and the cooperation and promotion of agricultural technology.
Nowadays, the scale of Xunweizhai and Asgard Hotel is still relatively small, and it is difficult to digest all the agricultural production of Asgard Villa, and some of it must be sold to the outside world.
Selling the agricultural production of Asgard Villa to the Morgan family can further enhance the reputation and style of the brand of Asgard Villa, and Xiao Yao is certainly willing to cooperate.
Xiao Yao and Scott's negotiation only needs to set a general framework, and as for the remaining details, they can be handed over to their subordinates to discuss slowly.
The cooperation on the specialty crops of Asgard Villa is relatively simple, and it only takes half an hour for the general cooperation framework to be reached. The remaining details are not within the scope of today's negotiation, and after a while, the Morgan family will send a professional team to negotiate.
Up to now, Asgard Lodge has made major breakthroughs in many aspects of agricultural technology, and the prospects for each major breakthrough are very impressive, and there are many issues to consider in the process of turning these laboratory technologies into practical benefits.
Although the Morgan family also has some involvement in agriculture, its influence is limited, far from being comparable to the Morgan family's influence in the financial industry.
Scott saw the broad prospects of these agricultural technologies and wanted to cooperate in depth, but Xiao Yao did not lack partners, and only came up with some ordinary technologies and Morgan family cooperation.
With Julingmu there is the possibility of health and longevity, and with this trump card, Xiao Yao believes that the top chaebols from all over the world will come to the door one after another, and the agricultural achievements of Xiangong Villa will definitely find the most ideal partner for cooperation.
As for other aspects of cooperation, due to insufficient preparations, both sides have stopped at a shallow level and have not had too in-depth negotiations.
After the business negotiation, Scott made another request, "Mr. Xiao, I just learned that you are the president of the Proms, I wonder if I am qualified to join the Proms and make a contribution to charity?"
Scott's request was not impromptu, but a decision that had been made long before he left for the United States.
If you want to have a good relationship with Xiao Yao, a legend, it is obviously not enough to just prepare a generous gift. The best way to do this is to take a stake in each other's companies, but this is not something that can be negotiated in a short period of time. In addition to mutual shareholding and business cooperation, Scott's participation in the Xiaoyao founded by Xiao Yao on behalf of the Morgan family was obviously a very good opportunity to strengthen friendship.
Scott offered to join the Proms, which is definitely good news for the Proms.
In the past two years, the development of the MEmu has been very rapid, but its influence has always been limited to the domestic and international influence.
Once the current head of the Morgan family joins the MEms, the development of the MEmu will inevitably take this as an opportunity, and it will be possible to become a world-class top chamber of commerce in the future.
Xiaoyao will have a world-class influence, which will definitely be a great help to Xiao Yao's business development, but this is still secondary, Xiao Yao values the collection of cultivation resources more.
With the support and joint search of the top chaebols from all over the world, it is possible for Xiao Yao to collect all the Nine Spirit Beads as soon as possible, even if he can't achieve this purpose, at least it can help him collect more other cultivation resources.
Of course, Xiao Yao would not push such a good thing outward, and said very happily: "With you, the contemporary head of the Morgan family, joining our Getaway, it will definitely greatly increase the influence of our Getaway Club in the world, and I welcome you to join on behalf of the 286 members of our Getaway." ”
