At Nielsen France headquarters, as soon as Chen Dahe entered the door, the beautiful woman at the front desk stood up and showed a trained standard smile, "Hello sir, is there anything wrong?"

Chen Dahe put one hand on the stage and said with a smile, "I have a few questions I want to consult. ”

"Okay, do you have an appointment?" The smile on the beautiful woman's face remained unchanged, "If not, I can help you register first, and your professional consultant will contact you tomorrow." ”

Chen Dahe shrugged, "Three simple questions, five thousand dollars in consultation fees,"

Then he raised his wrist and looked at his watch, "It's 9:35, I need to get an answer by 11 o'clock, you have five minutes to inform the person who can make the decision, if not, I'll go to another company." ”

Roman, who stayed in the car, said that the starting price of the order here is 2,000 US dollars, like the questions Chen Dahe asked just now, it is almost the same starting price, after all, it is not a complex information that is difficult to collect, but he was in a hurry and directly more than doubled the price.

The beauty's gaze stayed on his wrist, and her heartbeat suddenly paused for two seconds, a limited edition Vacheron Constantin worth $190,000, a potential big customer.

The formulaic smile immediately became even brighter, "Please wait a moment, and I will get back to you right away." ”

After saying that, he immediately stepped on his high heels and ran inside.

In less than two minutes, the beautiful woman walked out quickly, "Sir, please come inside." ”

Chen Dahe smiled slightly and followed her inside.

He was greeted by an obese white man in his forties, who seemed to be still a supervisor, and when he saw Chen Dahe, he immediately stood up and smiled and shook hands to greet him, and then invited him to take a seat.

"Sir, this is Mr. James, the director of our company, and he will be in charge of your consultation," the beautiful woman asked with a smile after introducing her, "Would you like coffee or tea?"

If it was white, she would have served the coffee directly, but if it was Asian, she was given an extra choice, which of course had something to do with the watch.

"Coffee, thank you. Chen Dahe nodded with a smile, then turned his head to look at the supervisor, "Mr. James, I'm in a hurry, can I just get to the point." ”

He has dealt with the French in the past few days, and he can be regarded as experiencing their grinding, and he can talk for two hours on a topic of weather, and he has never seen anyone more idle than them.

James, who was informed by Miss Julie at the front desk, was already prepared, and laughed, "Of course, but I need to evaluate your problem first to see if five thousand dollars is enough." ”

Chen Dahe smiled, "First, I need European information on Chinese antiques, including the approximate quantity and price,"

James immediately flipped through his notebook and began to record.

"Second, I want information about the Blois family,"

James looked up at him, "The family of Monsieur Julien de Blois on the Seine in the 5th arrondissement?"

Chen Dahe shrugged, "I don't know his full name, but his wife's name is Sophie, and his daughter's name is Selene." ”

"That's him," James continued, "and what about the third?"

Chen Dahe was a little surprised, he didn't expect him to even remember the information of such a small nobleman.

"Help me recommend a reliable bank manager, you don't need to have much ability, but you must be trustworthy," Chen Dahe thought for a while, "I heard that a gentleman named Jerome who has business dealings with Blois has a good character, if you have his information, you can also attach it." ”

This person who heard that he naturally listened to Sophie, that is, the person who went to inform Sophie of the bank's decision last night, does not seem to be a mercenary financial vampire, of course, this needs to be verified.

After James finished recording, he looked up at Chen Dahe, "Sir, is there anything else?"

Chen Dahe shook his head, "It's gone." ”

James closed his notebook and said with a smile, "Sir, in addition to the headhunting needs, including Mr. Jerome's information, the three questions only cost three thousand dollars, but if you count this, maybe five thousand dollars is not enough." ”

At this time, the beautiful woman at the front desk brought coffee and winked at him coquettishly, but Chen Dahe turned a blind eye and just said thank you lightly.

Then he looked at James and said, "Make an offer." ”

"Eight thousand dollars," James looked at him earnestly, "and we can guarantee that we will find you the right person within a week, including that Mr. Jerome, if you are interested in him." ”

"Except for headhunters, how long will it take for me to answer other questions?" Chen Dahe only cares about the results.

Seeing that the other party did not raise any objections to the price, James knew that the deal was completed, and immediately smiled, "Within an hour, the complete research report will appear in front of you." ”

He wasn't surprised by the time, and if he didn't even have this standing information, then Nielsen would be too unworthy of the name.

Chen Dahe immediately took out the checkbook he had completed two days ago, wrote one and tore it out and handed it to him, "This is five thousand dollars, and the rest will be paid after the personnel have confirmed." ”

"No problem," James took with a smile, "if we can't decide on a candidate within the allotted time, we'll return two thousand dollars." ”

Then he called the assistant and handed him the notebook and check, "These questions, prepare the materials immediately, and give them to me within an hour." ”

James is very happy, although this business is very small, but it is easy to earn, just like picking it up for nothing, now that the economy is sluggish, he can make a little bit of money, and he is still considering applying to the headquarters to lower the standard of receiving orders.

And Julie is right, with a limited edition Vacheron Constantin person, it is impossible to consult only a small order, if you can satisfy him today, maybe there will be a large order worth hundreds of thousands behind, I must keep this customer.

"Sir," said James, smiling, with his hands crossed over his lap, "I can give you a general overview of the situation before the information arrives. ”

Chen Dahe's face moved slightly, and he raised his hand to signal, "Please speak." ”

"First of all," said James," Regarding the issue of Chinese antiques in the European market, the specific number is not verifiable, but according to the research data of our company's research department five years ago, in the past two hundred years, at least more than two million pieces of Chinese art have crossed the sea to Europe, about two-thirds of which came from the ocean trade before the Anglo-Chinese War, which is basically the export trade porcelain of the Qing government at that time, and the remaining one-third was brought back by soldiers and merchants from Western countries in the last 100 years, which accounts for a large proportion of the imperial palace collection。 ”

Chen Dahe was noncommittal about his words, waiting for him to continue.
