Chapter 60: The Worst Didn't Happen
Chen Geng thought that it would take four or five days to get results from the investigation of the other three scrapped car dismantling companies in Detroit, but to Chen Geng's surprise, at noon on the third day, Stan God brought good news to Chen Geng.
"Boss, what you asked me to check has a result. ”
"Oh?" Chen Geng was a little surprised: so fast?
In the most succinct way, Statham explained why three other scrap car dismantling companies in Detroit bought to work with Fernandez: "It was the three scrap car dismantling companies that secretly joined forces and were ready to ask us for a high price. ”
Chen Geng looked at Statham and said in a deep voice, "Are you sure?"
"Boss, I'm pretty sure. Knowing what his boss was thinking, Statham nodded heavily.
Chen Geng's worries in his heart were finally put down, what he was most worried about before was that Anderson was short-sighted, picked sesame seeds and lost watermelons, and betrayed his trust for a little money, if this matter really had anything to do with him, Chen Geng could only let him go, now it's okay, the worst didn't happen, Chen Geng's mood suddenly improved: "Tell me, how did you do it?"
"I arranged for two brothers to go to the three car dismantling companies in the name of looking for some parts......," Statham recounted.
Perhaps it was the reason why Fernandez had not been in contact with them before, the whole thing went more smoothly than Chen Geng and Statham expected, these three scrapped car dismantling companies were not vigilant at all, and these veterans who went to investigate the situation did not encounter any expected problems, a few cigarettes, a few large burgers with full portions, and by the way, complained about the harshness of their own boss, and inquired about their boss's plan from the guards and employees who guarded them:
After seeing that Fernandez cooperated with Michael to make a lot of money on both sides by dismantling the available second-hand auto parts, the owners of two scrapped car dismantling companies were really moved: how can you make money selling second-hand parts by selling scrap iron?
But the owner of another scrapped car dismantling company is more discerning, and he is keenly aware of one point: Fernandez, which has tasted the sweetness of dismantling car parts, will inevitably come to Detroit's other scrapped car dismantling companies to cooperate.
Just when the bosses of the two scrapped car dismantling companies were about to come to Fernandez to cooperate, the more discerning boss took the initiative to find the door of the other two scrapped car dismantling companies and persuaded the bosses of the two scrapped car dismantling companies to advance and retreat with him.
The reason why he persuaded the owners of these two scrap car dismantling companies to join him is also very simple: we are not greedy, and we don't plan to make much more money, but even if we can get Fernandez to raise the price for Michael by 20%, or even 10%, we will also make money, at least tens of thousands of dollars more a year.
This simple reason convinced the owners of these two scrap car dismantling companies that who doesn't want to make more money?
Now, these three scrapped car dismantling companies are waiting for Chen Geng to take the initiative to come to the door and start the price with Chen Geng.
"It's that simple?" Chen Geng, who had previously imagined various possibilities and thought that it was impossible for these three scrapped car dismantling companies to be united, was a little incredulous.
"To put it bluntly, they're just some rag kings," Statham said, "How far-sighted do you think they can be?" ”
"Makes sense" Chen Geng nodded, he made a common-sense mistake: he thought that the other party was as smart as himself.
Anyway, as long as Anderson is not mixed in, then this is a good thing, Chen Geng called Anderson over: "Anderson, give you a task." ”
Anderson didn't say a word, and didn't ask: "Boss, you say." ”
"You go to the three scrap car lending companies in Detroit and see if they're willing to work with us. ”
"OK," Anderson nodded immediately, "What about the conditions?
"Of course, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to explain to Michael. ”
"I see. Anderson agrees with this statement, not to mention the friendship with Michael, nor to say that Michael's company was the first to cooperate with Fernandez, just to say that if these three scrapped car dismantling companies are given higher prices, what will Michael do on Michael's side? Is it possible to raise the price for Michael? In this way, the overall cost of Fernandez will go up.
For Anderson, who holds a stake in the project, rising costs mean a reduction in his dividends, and he is certainly not happy.
Of course, everyone signed a contract before, and he could only continue to supply to Fernandez in accordance with the contract, but the boss once said to himself that Fernandez should not only be a trustworthy company, but also be a company that makes others unable to say anything wrong in terms of morality.
He was just an engineer, and in the face of this kind of even the simplest business negotiation, he was not very bottom-up, and after expressing his attitude, he asked Chen Geng with some concern: "But boss, what if they insist on asking us to raise the price, and if we don't raise the price, they won't cooperate with us?" There are only 4 scrapped car dismantling companies in Detroit, and now we have only won one, and according to our current business development, we will soon be unable to meet the needs of the market. ”
"Are you stupid?" Chen Geng scolded angrily: "It's true that there are only four scrapped car dismantling companies in Detroit, but how many are there in the whole of Michigan? More than 300! How many are in the United States? More than 12,000! This is not a monopoly company, they don't sell, let's go and buy it elsewhere." ”
As for the fact that Fernandez cannot find so many people with low salary requirements for the time being, there is no need to emphasize it to Anderson.
Anderson didn't even think of the problem of manpower, and the whole person was immersed in the great happiness of more than 12,000 scrapped car lending companies in the United States.
"Okay, go and go back quickly," Chen Geng directly began to drive people away: "If the other party dares to put forward some conditions that go too far, then hang them first." ”
"Hmm!" Anderson nodded heavily, there are more than 12,000 scrapped car dismantling companies in the United States to give him courage, Anderson feels full of confidence.
....................................
Speaking of Chen Geng, the boss is pitiful, in terms of the current business situation, he can make millions of dollars a year, but when he has time, he has to help sell cars, no way, the business is too good, Fernandez's daily turnover can be worth the transaction volume of some small and micro second-hand car sales companies in two months.
No way, the new sales model is so powerful.
But Chen Geng found that the situation was a little wrong, to be precise, it was not that the sales were wrong, but that there was a customer who was wrong, although this guest looked like he was buying a car, but it was very different from the ordinary customers who came to buy a car, he didn't seem to have a clear goal of buying a car, but caught this salesperson and asked a few words, and then looked at it himself, and then walked to another sales person to ask two words......
Chen Geng's mind immediately came up with this idea.
But take a closer look, it seems a little bit different, those competitors who come to find out are always a little sneaky, thief-like feeling, but this is not, he is so generous to look around, touch around, and from time to time ask those customers who come to buy a car, not like they are here to find out, but a little like to investigate.
Coming to investigate?
Realizing this, Chen Geng's heart moved, and he took the initiative to step forward and stretched out his hand to the other party: "Sir, hello, I am the boss of this company, how can I help you?"
Chen Geng showed his identity, which was to tell the other party: Hey, buddy, I already recognize you.
This is recognized by someone, but the other party did not panic, and shook Chen Geng's hand twice: "It's a great honor to meet you, Mr. Fernandez, you can call me Tom." ”
Chen Geng nodded with a smile: "Okay, Mr. Tom, it's nice to meet you, how can I help you?"
The old man was free and easy, shrugged his shoulders and said, "I am a companion with Mr. Fernandez, and we also have a used car sales company in Windsor. ”
Used car dealership from Canada?
Chen Geng was a little surprised, he really didn't expect this guy to be his counterpart in Canada, speaking of which, two days ago, Elizabeth was full of confidence that she was going to Canada to open up the market, but she didn't expect that Canadian second-hand car dealers would take the initiative to come to the door.
In addition to the accident, Chen Geng couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart: "Then how do you feel after looking at it?"
"Very powerful!" Tom nodded sincerely: "I was a little strange about everyone's choice before, but after reading your company's service and after-sales commitment, I have to admit that the people of Windsor chose to buy a car from you correctly." ”
He complimented Chen Geng by the way.
Chen Geng's compliments from his peers made him very happy, and he was in a good mood: "So what? are you ready to cooperate with me?"
Chen Gengcai didn't believe that this would be the case, nine percent of the likelihood, this old man's vision was good, and at the initial stage of Fernandez, he realized that Fernandez's sales model was tantamount to a revolution for the second-hand car sales industry.
Facts turned out that Chen Geng's guess was right, and the guy shrugged: "If this sales model is really good, why not? Mr. Fernandez, I wonder if it is convenient to show me around your company, the maintenance workshop, and the situation of your partner?"
This guy knows a lot!
