"How can I get in touch with Fernandez Chen?" Returning to his office, Bruce Evans asked his secretary, "I'm talking about the more polite way." ”

"Mr. Fernández Chan seems to have a good relationship with a consulting firm in Washington," the secretary replied after a moment's thought, "and the consulting firm has dealings with some of the big names in the Pentagon." ”

"So it's very likely that they are acquaintances?" Bruce Evans couldn't help but laugh when he heard the secretary's words, he knew too well what these useless "consulting firms" were all about, and there were still a lot of business dealings between Lockheed and these "consulting firms". casually instructed the secretary: "Help me get in touch, just say that I have something I want to talk to him." ”

"Okay," the secretary hurriedly replied, "where's the time?"

"The sooner the better!"

........................

At Bruce Evans' request to "as soon as possible", Joterson appeared in front of Bruce Evans the next afternoon.

Looking at the big man in front of him, Joterson was surprised and delighted.

The happy thing is that the senior executive vice president of the military industrial giant Lockheed in front of him, such a big man is looking for himself, once he can take this opportunity to get on the line with Lockheed, won't he be rich in the future? ;

The worry is that Joterson is self-aware and knows that Lockheed itself has a "consulting company" that specializes in cooperation, and they even have some shares in this "consulting company", that is, such a good thing cannot theoretically fall on his own head.

So the question is, what is Bruce Evans looking for himself for?

Before Bruce Evans came, he deliberately asked someone to find a piece of information about the relationship between Joterson and Chen Geng, knowing that the relationship between this guy in front of him and Chen Geng was very good, so he didn't put on an invincible and domineering posture, took a sip of coffee, and Bruce Evans asked Joterson politely: "Mr. Jotson, I heard that you have a very good relationship with Mr. Fernandez?"

Bruce Evans came to himself for Fernandez Chen?

Without understanding Bruce Evans' intentions, Joterson was a little drumming in his heart, and said cautiously: "This...... How to say, I have been working with Mr. Fernández Chen for some years, and our friendship is quite good, but ......"

"That's enough," Bruce Evans nodded without waiting for Joterson to finish speaking: "Mr. Joterson, I have invited you over this time, because I need to trouble you to send a message to Mr. Fernandez Chen, saying that Lockheed intends to sell the civil aircraft business, I wonder if he is interested?"

“......”

Joterson waited for a long time, not waiting for Bruce Evans' next words, before he was stunned and said, "That's it?"

Bruce Evans nodded, "That's right, that's it. ”

Joterson couldn't stop crying and laughing!

If you just asked me to help you pass a word to Fernández Chen, then you would have said it earlier, such a simple thing! Do you know that you almost scared Lao Tzu to death, and Lao Tzu thought that he had inadvertently blocked your Lockheed way......

Is!

However, in addition to crying and laughing, Joterson can be regarded as relieved: as long as it does not stand in the way of these military-industrial giants. He hurriedly nodded: "No problem, of course no problem!"

As for what to do after contacting Chen Geng, after being a broker for so many years, do you still use Bruce Evans to say some things?

Seeing that Joterson agreed, Bruce Evans nodded with satisfaction, took out a check from his pocket and pushed it in front of Jotson: "This is your payment." ”

With that, Bruce Evans stood up and instructed Joterson again, "Better hurry." ”

After saying that, he turned around and left.

When Bruce Evans was gone, Joterson looked down at the denomination of the check in front of him: $100,000.

Seeing the remuneration paid by Lockheed, Jotson's face suddenly fell: It seems that this matter is a bit difficult to do, but it is just to let himself pull a line, and Lockheed paid $100,000?!

He doesn't think that Bruce Evans doesn't understand the "market", let alone that Lockheed has a lot of money and has nowhere to spend, and there is only one reason why Bruce Evans gave a price that far exceeds the normal market......

"These days, it's hard to make money......"

Bruce Evans muttered, but his hand was not slow at all, and quickly put the check into his pocket, and at the same time, picked up the phone......

"Lockheed wants to sell their civil aircraft business to me?" Although he was a little surprised by what Joterson said on the phone, Chen Geng soon refused without hesitation: "Tell them, I don't want to." ”

"What?"

Joterson didn't expect Chen Geng to refuse so simply, and he was stunned for a while: "For...... Why? Didn't you just buy the Dutch Fokker before? Or is it a question of funding?"

"Money is not a problem for me at all," Chen Geng said domineeringly, for the sake of everyone who has known each other for so many years, Chen Geng still introduced the situation to Jotson: "And I can buy the Dutch Fokker, it does not mean that I can buy Lockheed, after all, Fokker company's products can only be regarded as narrow-body short-range trunk airliners at the entrance level, and the threat to Boeing, Airbus and McDonnell Douglas is not great, but Lockheed has mastered the manufacturing technology of real long-range large wide-body trunk aircraft. What will be the reaction of the three giants, McDonnell Douglas and Airbus?"

"Uh......"

Hearing Chen Geng's explanation, Jotsen was speechless for a moment, he really didn't expect so much just now.

"And," Chen Geng continued: "Don't look at Lockheed almost lost its pants in the civil aircraft business, but don't forget, after all, Lockheed still has more than half a century of technology accumulation in the civil aircraft business, but just like this, Lockheed can't play Boeing and McDonnell Douglas, and almost lost his pants, do you think I can be more powerful than Lockheed?"

There is another reason that Chen Geng did not say, that is, if he acquires Lockheed, can the US Government and the military allow him to take the manufacturing technology of large aircraft to China? If he cannot take this technology to Huaxia, then his acquisition has the meaning of wool?

However, there is no need to say anything about this factor to Jotson.

But even so, it is enough to send Joterson away, hearing that Chen Geng really has no intention of accepting Lockheed's civil aircraft business, although Joterson is a little regretful that he lost an opportunity to make a lot of money, but the friendship over the years still made Joterson say to Chen Geng: "Congratulations, Fernandez." ”

"Oh?

"Congratulations on making the right decision," Jottson said seriously, "Originally, I was a little worried about whether you would be hot-headed and agreed to talk to Lockheed, but now, I am relieved." ”

"Haha......"

Chen Geng smiled happily: "You know, I've always been very rational and calm. ”

..............................

Chen Geng originally thought that the matter was almost here, after all, he had clearly expressed his refusal, but what Chen Geng didn't expect was that within two days, Joterson suddenly contacted him again, saying that Bruce Evans, the senior vice president of Lockheed, wanted to talk to him.

"Fernandez, I don't want to call you this number," After explaining the situation, Joterson apologized to Chen Geng again and again: "But you know, people like me can't refuse Lockheed's ...... at all"

"Okay, okay, I understand," Chen Geng interrupted Jotson's words, and at the same time said with some curiosity: "Didn't I tell you last time that I was not interested in acquiring Lockheed's civil aircraft business?"

"That's what I said to Bruce Evans," Joterson sighed and said apologetically to Chen Geng, "But the problem is, after I conveyed your meaning to Bruce Evans, he said he wanted to talk to you personally. So...... I'm really sorry......"

"Understood, you don't have to explain. Chen Geng said: "You tell Evans, just say that I will return to the United States in a week, and I will talk to him at that time." ”

If Bruce Evans really asks to "talk again" with him, Joterson really has no way to refuse, no way, who let him eat this bowl of rice, and in the United States, which "consulting company" dares to refuse Lockheed?

He really didn't have a choice.

However, although for the sake of Jotson's face, Chen Geng can talk to Bruce Evans, it is unrealistic to expect him to run back to the United States immediately...... Your Lockheed face is that big?

But what Chen Geng didn't expect was that Bruce Evans was unwilling to wait even a week, after he made this statement, Bruce Evans actually immediately came to the Netherlands with Jotsen, and the speed was so fast that Chen Geng was dumbfounded: Lockheed, is he so eager to get rid of this burden in his hands?

It was Jotsen, who was a little afraid to face Chen Geng, and his eyes were a little dodgy when he saw Chen Geng.

"Dude, what are you doing looking at me like this," Seeing Jotsen's dodgy appearance, Chen Geng laughed and gave him a strong hug: "Speaking of which, I didn't expect you to come to the Netherlands to see me, I'm so happy, huh...... Let's have a good drink when we get back. ”

Hearing Chen Geng's words, Joterson immediately breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he understood that Chen Geng was not angry because of his actions, and for Jotson, this was undoubtedly the best result. He patted Chen Geng's back vigorously and nodded again and again: "Of course, we must have a good drink...... But before I do that, let me introduce you to a friend......"

As he spoke, Joterson took a slight step aside, exposed Bruce Evans, and said respectfully to Chen Geng: "Fernandez, let me introduce you, this is Mr. Bruce Evans, the executive vice president of aviation business at Lockheed, Mr. Bruce Evans is here for you this time." ”

Bruce Evans had an attitude of "Lao Tzu is an uncle!" in front of Jotson, but in front of Chen Geng, he knew very well that he was a senior worker of Lockheed, so he put his posture very low, and apologized to Chen Geng: "Mr. Fernandez, it's an honor to be able to meet you, I'm very sorry to bother you so much, this is what the company meant, and I ...... it."

Chen Geng can give Jotson a good face, because after all, everyone has been friends for so many years, but in the matter of treating Bruce Evans, Chen Geng doesn't have so many good faces for him, not to mention that Lockheed hurried over so without giving himself face, and nodded coldly: "I understand, you guys are based on getting rid of the burden and traveling lightly, which is understandable...... Please. ”

After all, the visitor is a guest, and it is always difficult to hang people here.

Chen Geng's attitude was not very good, but Bruce Evans was relieved: this was already the best situation he had expected.

After sitting down in the living room, Chen Geng didn't go around in circles with Bruce Evans, and said bluntly: "Mr. Evans, I should have conveyed my meaning very clearly, I don't have any idea of accepting Lockheed's civil aircraft business at all, is it that Joterson did not convey the words clearly enough or what is going on?"
