Chapter 469: Robbing the Tiffany Market to give you gas
Afternoon.
in the exhibition hall.
Teacher Zhang Lianggao and others are still surprising around the chicken head.
Wang Chen was not idle, took Dai Wei to find Fan Qingyue to return the work card first, and walked around, wanting to see what was different about Tiffany's exhibition, and also learn from the Western Yinyu, originally he would go back after he finished his work, but Zhang Liang insisted that he stay, well, if you don't go, you won't leave, just study it.
"Who is this man?"
"It doesn't seem to be the staff. β
"Oh, he's a distinguished guest invited by Mr. Zhang, and his name seems to be Wang Chen. β
"I don't know Wang Chen. β
"Chairman of Western Yinyu, he is worth at least billions. β
"Wow, I'm so close to the billions of big guys? Hurry up and take a photo and send it to the circle of friends. β
"Hurry up and work after shooting, busy here, you young people are really, blindly worship rich people all day long, and take photos to send to Moments? Well, then I have to take a picture too. β
Suddenly, Wang Chen saw a large group of people coming in front of him, led by the blonde and blue-eyed foreigner who looked very handsome, he didn't know at first, but from the greetings of Tiffany's staff, he knew that this person was Philip Galtier, senior vice president of Tiffany.
Originally, Philippe Galtier and a large group of people were in a hurry, but they were stopped by a female reporter, quite far away, I don't know what they were interviewing, Wang Chen couldn't hear it, he knew that this person should be one of the culprits who caused the damage to the chicken head, Wang Chen naturally looked at it a few more times, and didn't like it very much, a foreign company earns our country's money, and is so arrogant, originally wanted 10 million US dollars, and finally couldn't withstand the pressure of public opinion before agreeing to repair the chicken head without money to donate it, how can people like it?
Suddenly, a voice came from behind, "Hello Mr. Wang." β
It was a woman's voice, Wang Chen turned his head and said, "Hello." β
A female reporter, she held a voice recorder and said: "It's really Mr. Wang, the chairman of Western Yinyu, I just heard that others said that I saw you and I didn't believe it, why are you here? Are you here to learn from Tiffany? Also, I want to know, does Western Yinyu ever regard Tiffany as an imaginary enemy?"
Wang Chen smiled and said: "The business direction of the two companies is not the same, I just came to participate in the exhibition personally, and it has nothing to do with the company." β
"Really?" the female reporter didn't believe it.
"Otherwise?" Wang Chen didn't reveal anything else, and walked away with Dai Wei after a few random nonsense words.
Although he didn't say much to the female reporter, his heart was beautiful, and he saw that the social status of his buddy can now be interviewed by reporters when he walks in the exhibition hall, which shows that he is famous.
β¦β¦
After a while.
Zhang Liang's phone called, but it was Mr. Gao who spoke, and they had been together all the time.
Teacher Gao said, "Mr. Wang, can you come to Hall 1 once now?"
Wang Chen said: "Okay, I'll come over now." β
Since Philippe Galtier has just brought someone over, it is time to learn about the process of repairing the chicken head.
Wang Chen had already thought of a good idea, and he bit the high-tech to death, as for what high-tech, hey, the secret technology within our Western Yinyu Company is not enough for outsiders.
Sometimes you don't need to explain too much, others suspect that it is someone else's business, and not explaining is the best explanation, if you don't listen to the explanation, it is easy to expose flaws.
β¦β¦
Come to Hall One.
Wang Chen looked inside, but he didn't see Philippe Galtier and the people from Tiffany's team, he wondered, didn't he see people just now? Why didn't he come over?
He couldn't figure it out, but walked in anyway.
Zhang Liang, Teacher Gao and others heard the footsteps and looked over.
"Xiao Wang. β
"What about Tiffany's people?"
"Wait for us upstairs, you come with us. β
"Uh, I'm going too?"
"You've fixed the head of the chicken, of course you have to go. β
Zhang Liang asked a staff member in the exhibition hall to cover the head of the chicken with a red cloth, and then walked in front, with Wang Chen and Dai Wei following them.
β¦β¦
Upstairs.
In a large room, there are all kinds of instruments.
Philippe Galtier, Tiffany's senior vice president, was standing there, with a dozen other people next to him, all in English explaining what was on display tomorrow.
Since Wang Chen and the others, Philippe Galtier said politely: "Mr. Zhang, please wait a moment, I will explain something here." β
"Hmm. Zhang Liang nodded, waved his hand, and asked people to put the head of the chicken on the metal table first.
A Tiffany executive said: "The diamonds and jewelry have been shipped, and now the booth is being set up, and the reporters have also been invited." β
Philippe Galtier: "How many media outlets were invited?"
"A total of 21 media outlets, including Shanghai TV, were invited. A female foreigner said.
The remaining people reported the situation one after another, about a quarter of them were foreigners, and the remaining three-quarters seemed to be Chinese, but basically the people who spoke were the quarters of foreigners, that is, even if the Chinese side, the right to speak was still in the hands of foreigners, and Chinese employees may just really work and do not have much rights.
"I'll check the entire exhibition hall again, don't make any mistakes, this time the company has great hopes, okay, let's get busy." Philippe Galtier waved his hand.
Seeing that he was busy, Zhang Liang said with a smile: "Mr. Galtier, alright?"
Philippe Galtier looked over and smiled: "Okay, okay, I'm sorry to keep you waiting, by the way, you called me just now and said that the chicken head has been repaired, so let's see how the repair goes." Although Zhang Liang is not from Tiffany & Co., nor is he from the National Museum, Zhang Liang has come forward on behalf of the National Museum for some reasons, and he has a lot of influence.
Teacher Gao smiled, "Ten percent." β
At this moment, Tiffany's insiders were stunned, "Ten percent, so fast?"
Zhang Liang smiled and said: "Didn't you say Mr. Galtier, if it is not repaired, we will have to pay 10 million US dollars, of course, we have to do our best to repair it, in order to save money." β
The corner of Philippe Galtier's eye jumped, "Hehe, okay, let's take a look first." β
One of the foreigner high-level officials looked at Zhang Liang and the others, and said in his heart that if it weren't for the fact that the public opinion outside was too strong, you would have wanted to escape from the 10 million US dollars? Or maybe the chicken head is not broken, and it will cost more than 10 million US dollars to take it out for auction casually, and you can be regarded as having picked up a bargain! The foreigner high-level shook his head in his heart, and he couldn't temporarily hold on to his feet for less than a day, and he could repair the chicken head to 10 percent? You cowhide is blowing like a real thing!
Other Tiffany foreigners also think so in their hearts, they actually don't take Zhang Liang and others seriously, mainly because of public opinion!
Never mind.
Let's take a look first.
Zhang Liang was not polite, and took the lead in walking towards the front, "You guys come and see." β
Philippe Galtier led a dozen people to the metal table.
At the end, Zhang Liang stretched out his hand and pointed to the glass cabinet shrouded in red cloth and said, "The restored chicken head is inside, you can let the technicians take a look." β
Philippe Galtier mumbled, "Okay. β
The other Tiffany executives were a little lacking in interest, they were very busy with the exhibition, and they had to come because of Zhang Liang's influence, and no one believed that the chicken head was really repaired.
We're chatting here.
Zhang Liang turned his head sideways to an ordinary staff member at Tiffany & Co. and said, "Young man, please lift the red cloth and let everyone see it." β
"Okay. The young man stepped forward.
The people at Tiffany & Co. looked at it, and they were not upset because of Zhang Liang's staff.
If it were someone else, Philippe Galtier would definitely feel that Zhang Liang was taking a shelf, but the person in front of him, let alone sending a person from their company, is now asking Philippe Galtier to lift the red cloth in person, he also has to go, no way, on other people's territory.
Wang Chen didn't bother to look at it, he knew that the repair was flawless, so he pulled a chair and sat down, although he didn't have the status of the rivers and lakes like Zhang Liang, but he didn't rely on Tiffany to eat, besides, the two companies were originally one of the competitors, even if he was offended, he didn't bother to care what Philippe Galtier and others thought.
It was precisely because of this move that the eyes of Philippe Galtier and others were aroused, and some people frowned.
Who is this man?
As soon as everyone was distracted, Xiao Young lifted the red cloth.
In an instant, all the people at Tiffany's top were attracted by the chicken head, and immediately, everyone's eyes became stunned, and they all looked at each other in disbelief!
This......
This chicken head......
Philippe Galtier's eyes changed all at once!
He didn't care about looking any more, and hurriedly asked the technicians to take the instrument to test.
The test results speak for themselves!
The foreigner senior who thought that Zhang Liang and others were bragging was stunned at the moment, this chicken head was really repaired today? How long has it been, and what has been repaired is no different from before it was broken, if you give enough time, you still have to ...... Re-forge one, huh?
There was a female foreigner who was stunned!
The rest of Tiffany's executives were silent!
Teacher Gao said: "Time is a little rushed, we have asked someone to come over and repair it to this point, is Mr. Galtier still satisfied?"
Philippe Galtier smiled bitterly: "Satisfied, how can you not be satisfied, I am just a little curious, who did you invite to come and repair?
Teacher Gao smiled, "It's a friend of Mr. Zhang." As she spoke, she pouted and pointed at Wang Chen, who was sitting there, "Wang Chen, you are peers, you should have heard of him, right?"
Wang Chen?
Chairman of Western Yinyu?
He personally went out to fix it?
Some people know each other, and some people don't.
When Philippe Galtier heard this, he sighed, "It turned out to be the chairman of Western Yinyu, but I didn't expect to be here, and I was fortunate to be there." β
Wang Chen also smiled and said, "It's a pleasure to meet you." β
Zhang Liang asked, "Does what you said before still count?"
Philippe Galtier was silent for a while, and then sneered: "I am very grateful that you have repaired the head of the chicken, but we spent a lot of money when we bought the head of the chicken, you see......"
Zhang Liang looked at him, "You can't be untrustworthy, before you and the National Museum promised that if we help restore the chicken head and reduce the pressure of public opinion for you, then you will donate the chicken head to the National Museum for free, and now you want money? Don't you take me Zhang Liang in your eyes?"
Zhang Liang's temper is up!
As soon as he opened his voice, he didn't give Philippe Galtier a good face!
Philippe Galtier smiled bitterly: "Mr. Zhang, I know that you are not very happy to say this, and I also know your influence, I don't mean that, mainly because it cost too much money to buy chicken heads, if you don't compensate a little, we will lose a lot!"
Zhang Liang squinted his eyes and suddenly laughed, and said meaningfully: "I know that what you say is reasonable, but you have to be honest, I spent a lot of energy to invite a few bronze restoration experts to ask for money? Don't you have time? What do you mean by changing my hexagram with me temporarily? Come, tell me, is it your personal meaning, or your company's meaning?"
Teacher Gao said, "You guys were playing with us at the beginning?"
The foreigner must be on Tiffany's side, and said: "No, no, no, we don't mean that, it's just that we want some financial compensation, I know that we have wasted a lot of your time, and we must be very grateful to Tiffany and Co., to tell you the truth, our company spent 12 million US dollars to buy the chicken head, and now you have helped repair it, not to mention the 10 million US dollars we talked about before, seven or eight million economic compensation should be, right?"
Still grinding your mouth?
Dude helped fix the chicken head, and now it's time to start haggling?
Wang Chen can see it, I'm afraid Tiffany didn't expect the chicken head to be repaired so quickly at first, so he casually promised, if it was repaired, it would be free, but I didn't expect it to become like this in the end, naturally regret it, you regret it is your business, but what did you promise before? He was a little overwhelmed, and immediately said: "How much money did the chicken head buy at the beginning is your business, before this, was it bought by the National Museum for 10 million US dollars that the National Museum negotiated with you?" You agreed, and the National Museum did not regret it, but later, you accidentally damaged it, and you were overwhelmed by the pressure of public opinion, so you took the initiative to ask the National Museum for help, saying that if it is repaired, you will not collect a penny of donations, and now I will repair it for you, and you want to compensate financially? Okay, I don't think Mr. Zhang needs to talk to you anymore, it is better to break the news to the media about what he just said!"
When several of these Chinese heard Wang Chen's words, they all agreed in their hearts, that is, if you look at the temperament of the people, they have already donated two zodiac bronze heads to go out, and they are all complete, and they all come to your foreigner's side, take the initiative to ask for help and break the contract? Are there any people who do this? But they know that foreigners believe in the supremacy of money, and it is not surprising that they will do this, but they just sigh how the gap between people is so big, and there are few good people like Wang Chen.
Philippe Galtier was very upset and said to himself, "Do you have a part in speaking here?"
Zhang Liang asked slowly: "Galtier, if you insist on financial compensation, I can also promise for the National Museum, you don't have any pressure, but you are responsible for the consequences!"
Don't be stressed?
Yourself responsible for the consequences?
Philippe Galtier is feeling a lot of pressure!
If the chicken head was not repaired before, he could say anything, but now the problem is that when he took the initiative to ask for help, he promised, Philippe Galtier originally wanted to grind his mouth and recover some losses for the company, in his opinion, the Chinese have always paid attention to peace and wealth are better discussed, but did not expect that things would become like this in the end, blame that Wang Chen for speaking, but then again, why is this Wang Chen so awesome, and the chicken head is repaired in less than a day?
The previous foreigner wiped his sweat and said, "President?"
There was silence in the room, and everyone looked at Philippe Galtier.
One of the female foreigners hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Since we promised before, let's keep our promise." β
Philippe Galtier glanced at the foreigner.
The foreigner squeezed her eyes at him, and she didn't know what it meant.
At this time, there was another older foreigner who spoke, probably in his sixties, "Just go back and report to the chairman, our top priority is to do a good job of the exhibition, the economic compensation of the chicken head is not a trivial matter, seven or eight million dollars is not a huge amount of money for our company, besides, if the exhibition is done well, the sales volume will increase greatly, and only seven or eight million dollars can be earned back, which is the most important thing." β
It's a beautiful thing to say!
But in fact, they were threatened by Wang Chen's words, if those words were really revealed to the media just now, their Tiffany's reputation in China would be absolutely ruined, not to mention economic compensation, I am afraid they will not be able to mix in China, especially at the time of the exhibition, so the multimedia looks, it is too easy to attract attention, rather than this, it is better to donate the chicken head without collecting a penny according to the prior agreement, or, go back and think about a way, how to ask for some benefits in disguise, but now this time period is not good, this group of foreigners are shrewdγ
After a little discussion.
In the end, Philippe Galtier was also afraid that Zhang Liang would accept Wang Chen's idea, so he had to say: "Well, I will report the situation to the company's headquarters, there should be no problem, and I will inform you later, okay?"
With that said, the matter is basically settled.
β¦β¦
Outside.
Zhang Liang sighed and said, "It's not easy, I finally got things done." "He didn't want to threaten either, he just couldn't help it.
Teacher Gao shook his head and said: "If it weren't for Mr. Wang's righteous words just now, I'm afraid that in the end they would still try their best to ask for money, alas, or the entrepreneurs of our country have a conscience, you look at Mr. Wang, forget it, the task is completed, don't say much." β
Wang Chen said with a smile, "That's it, how can foreigners compare with our countrymen, okay, it's good if things are done." He half-jokingly said, "I have grown the scale of Western silver jade and robbed the Tiffany market for you to export." β
Everyone who was a little sad was happy, and they didn't continue to dwell on this matter.
