367. Can you still talk like that
Fenway Park looks shabby, which is not quite what Guo Yongkun thought.
Fung explained that it would not be surprising that the course was inaugurated in 1912.
It has been in use for 77 years, and after countless ups and downs, the Red Sox are still thriving. This made Guo Yongkun quite touched.
Culture needs to be accumulated, this is our country is currently very insufficient, I hope that his Jianlibao Sports Festival, can also be held all the time, if it can be held for a hundred years, it is also a merit.
Including the stadium office here, it is very old, but after knowing its history, it is more of a heritage to look at it.
This is something that no amount of glamour can buy.
The assistant to the team owner, Mr. Corbyn, was in charge of receiving them. The main thing is that their boss is very old and rarely takes matters personally.
Since he is such an old man, he can't talk about slacking off.
A simple conference room with no bells and whistles, just an oval conference table and a few iron-framed folding chairs.
"Can you take a look at your drinks first?" said Corbyn. There were three more people to his left and right, all Red Sox executives.
"Of course. ”
Feng Jiawei nodded, and Wang Ziqiang next to him immediately took out four cans of Jianlibao from the small suitcase he was carrying and handed them to the other party.
As for Guo Yongkun, with Feng Jiawei here, he naturally doesn't need to do it himself, mainly to suppress the formation.
The only difference between this batch of Jianlibao and the domestic version is that it adopts a bilingual logo in Chinese and English, and the origin is the new factory that has just been completed by Li Jingxu in Yangcheng.
"Oh, I know this drink. Corbin took the can in his hand and looked at it carefully, then said suddenly.
The three colleagues beside him looked at him.
"You don't remember, in the 84 Los Angeles Olympics, their Chinese team achieved very good results, when a drink drunk by athletes was widely reported by the media and called 'Oriental Magic Water'. ”
As soon as he explained this, the other three showed sudden expressions.
"It turned out to be this drink. ”
"It was said to be very good, and some media even got a few cans at that time. ”
"If it's really that magical, it's a good way to give athletes a good boost of energy. ”
A few people on the other side discussed with each other and seemed very interested.
Guo Yongkun and Feng Jiawei looked at each other, and things seemed to be much smoother than they imagined.
Of course, this is the best.
"That's right, it's called Jianlibao, which is the drink from the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, and we have been sponsoring the Chinese Olympic team, and we have never stopped. Feng Jiawei accosted at the right time.
"Let's try it first. ”
Feng Jiawei made a gesture of please.
The four Corbyns pulled open the ring almost at the same time, poured the drink into their mouths, and then tasted it, and all subconsciously turned their heads.
It tastes good!
It's more than ten miles stronger than their drink sponsorship brand last year, and if it weren't for the contract, they would have to drink it for every game, and they wouldn't drink it for free, and it would be so sweet.
Drinking too much is easy to get diabetes.
And this drink, with the right sweetness and a strong orange aroma, is a good choice even if it is used to accompany a meal.
It can be discussed.
The four of them had already reached an agreement with their eyes.
As for compliments, they need to be restrained, even if they think so in their hearts. Because it's a business negotiation.
"The taste, it's okay, I believe our players should be able to accept it. Corbyn smiled lightly and said, "I just don't know how much you're willing to pay for sponsorship?"
"Why don't you make an offer and see if we can accept it. Feng Jiawei said with a smile.
"Then I won't lie to you, now there are many companies that are interested in our beverage sponsorship rights this year, with high and low bids, and many companies are still negotiating price increases, and the highest price has reached $4 million.
"We can't determine the final amount, it depends on your sincerity. ”
A pit is pushed around, and neither side wants to jump down first. That's where the price negotiation comes in.
'$4 million?' Guo Yongkun thought to himself, this price is not low.
Jianlibao sponsors major sports events all year round, and has a good understanding of the market in this regard. For example, if you sponsor the Olympics, you should inquire about the price of competing products sponsoring other sports groups.
Coca-Cola sponsored the U.S. team to participate in the Seoul Olympics last year, and the cost did not exceed 10 million.
But after all, it is the Olympics, and its influence is naturally not comparable to that of an American baseball league.
There are many discounts.
Moreover, Feng Jiawei has also done a survey on the beverage sponsorship market of similar groups, which may not be accurate, but it should be similar.
Guo Yongkun originally discussed with Feng Jiawei that the advertising value of the other party should be about 3.5 million, up and down a little, which is considered a normal category.
On the contrary, too much is not normal.
"Mr. Corbyn, can I take the liberty of asking which beverage company came up with the $4 million price?"
Obviously, Feng Jiawei was also suspicious.
"Mr. Feng, you should understand that this is a confidential business opportunity, and it is difficult to disclose it to the outside world. ”
Then Guo Yongkun and Feng Jiawei will understand, the bastard is really inflating the price.
And the point is that even if they really pay $4 million now, the other party may not agree directly, they are likely to take this price and then go to other companies to negotiate until no one can afford it.
This is called benefit maximization.
Merchants are cunning.
It is not difficult to imagine why some business negotiations are negotiated for months, or even years.
"Mr. Corbyn, you should be able to see that we are very sincere, why don't we all beat around the bush and talk openly and honestly......"
Feng Jiawei thinks of beauty, but the other party is obviously an old fritter, where will he simply call his mind.
Guo Yongkun leaned on the back of the chair, clasped his hands around his chest, and silently listened to Xia Ying's translation in his ear, according to this progress, it is strange that this meeting will not last ten days and half a month.
And it doesn't always work out in the end.
Although it was a normal process, he really didn't bother to wait.
He was determined to get the sponsorship of the Red Sox, if nothing else, just for the Holy Child's curse.
He is the king of gambling, every bet will win, although this time is not a serious game, but he still wants to gamble, in case the bet wins, the harvest is not small.
After thinking about this, he never spoke, leaned forward, propped his elbows on the table, and crossed his fingers.
When Feng Jiawei saw him in this posture, he knew that he had something to say, so he stopped his voice at the right time.
"Mr. Corbyn, I also take the liberty of asking a question, what is your annual salary?"
“……”
Corbin froze, and said in his heart why are you asking this, it's too rude, right, I'll tell you?
If he hadn't known that he was the boss, he might have just thrown his face.
"I'm just a part-time worker, and my income is not high. ”
Then Guo Yongkun probably has a judgment and will die for 200,000 to 300,000 US dollars.
"Well, I'll give you $4 million as you say. However, I only contributed 3.6 million for this sponsorship, and as for the remaining 400,000, the four of you will each have 100,000. ”
“……”
Hearing this, not to mention that the four of Corbin looked confused, even Feng Jiawei was directly stunned.
"Boss Guo, are you bribing us?" Corbyn said without seeing his joy or anger.
"Yes. ”
“……”
Corbyn looked at each other, they had been doing business all their lives, but it was the first time they had encountered such a person.
Even if you really want to bribe, can you secretly do it in private?
That's it...... Insult whom!
"Not enough?" Guo Yongkun said to himself as if he didn't see their strange expressions, "Then the last price, okay, if you can't pull it down, it's 150,000 US dollars per person." ”
When he finished speaking, he reached to the side.
Xia Ying suddenly understood, took out the checkbook, and handed it to him.
Then, under the stunned gaze of the four Corbyns, four UBS cheques were placed in front of them.
Looking at the "15" and four zeros on it, all four of them gasped.
To be honest, when the other party said $100,000 just now, each of them was actually excited.
How can they make $100,000 in the blink of an eye?
The reason why he didn't show it was mainly because there were three other people sitting next to him.
Why did the boss arrange it this way?
It is true that they need to cooperate, and it is also true that they need to monitor each other.
At this moment, the four of you look at me, I look at you, and none of them spoke first.
Guo Yongkun knew that there was still a lack of fire, so he suddenly stood up and paced to the opposite side. I took a check from the table and stuffed it into the jacket pocket of the first person, then the second, the third......
The last one is Corbyn.
"By the way, Mr. Corbyn, should we talk about contracts now?"
After doing these things, he clapped his hands as if he was nothing, and asked with a smile.
I don't mention a check at all.
As if it was just a dream. Nothing happened at all.
"Oh...... Yes, in any case, the terms of the contract should be understood first. Corbyn's expression was complicated, but seeing that the other three colleagues didn't make any moves, he smiled and nodded awkwardly.
His salary is only 200,000 yuan a year, and he has more than half a year's salary in his pocket, doesn't he want it?
When Guo Yongkun saw him take out a document and talk to Feng Jiawei, he knew that the matter was successfully resolved.
They are all wage earners, who can look down on money?
The sponsorship fee of 3.6 million is not low, right?
The drink doesn't taste bad, right?
It didn't bother you too much, and one person stuffed you with 150,000 ...... Don't be stupid?
That's the benefit of the other boss's absence.
There are pros and cons to everything, as soon as he entered the door before, Guo Yongkun analyzed the pros and cons: the boss is not there, and he will definitely not be able to talk about it today, because the other party will inevitably report. But there are also advantages, how much this sponsorship fee is, and they do not have a very direct interest.
Their boss received 3.6 million in sponsorship fees, will he give each of them 150,000?
Think beautifully.
As far as he is concerned, paying 4.2 million may overspend, but it will not be much, but it saves time, and in his opinion, it is not a loss.
After all, time is money.
In addition, the hit rate is 100 percent.
Money, don't make it again. If you miss the opportunity, you won't have it.
He was still thinking about the curse of the Holy Child, what if the bet came true?
"Can you talk like that?"
Two hours later, when Feng Jiaweiwen left the stadium office with a draft contract stuffed in his bag, he said with emotion.
This kind of business negotiation is not in books. The professor didn't teach either.
It's a long experience.
The money may have been spent a little more, but the efficiency was amazing. It's really hard to say whether it's a loss or a gain.
"It's not a good method, try not to learn if you can. Guo Yongkun shrugged.
This is a pure charlatan, taking advantage of people's greedy nature.
But it also depends on the object, not everyone can work. Otherwise, it is likely to backfire.
There is no mistake
