Chapter 619: Talking Loudly

Raytheon's customer base is almost the richest group of people on the planet, that is, the rich people that everyone calls them. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
It's just that rich people generally have special personalities, and they also have their own understanding and cognition of beautiful things, and the reason why they are willing to spend more money to order private jets is to meet their psychological needs.
For example, the height of the cabin, the interior decoration, etc., are all customized according to personal preferences.
And every private jet sold by Raytheon is also tailored for everyone, so the plane left by the bankrupt Wall Street tycoon has given Raytheon a headache, and they have called a few guests to ask about it, but no one is willing to take over the plane.
"Dear Zhuang, if you are interested, we can meet, I will show you the parameters and pictures of the plane, and in terms of price, it can also be discounted......"
In fact, in such a situation, the company will modify the aircraft to suit other customers with other needs under the condition of ensuring that the main model remains unchanged, but the cost will be much higher.
Tom now came to Zhuang Rui to try to see if he could sell it without making major changes? Because Zhuang Rui had strongly expressed his desire to get the Raytheon aircraft as soon as possible.
Of course, simply modifying some interior decoration is not a burden for Raytheon.
"Alright then, Tom, we'll see you in an hour's ...... at the restaurant where you're staying."
Zhuang Rui thought about it for a while, and decided to take a look at the parameters and information of the aircraft, after all, it took eight months to have his own private jet, and Zhuang Rui felt that it had taken a little longer.
After hanging up the phone, Zhuang Rui stood up helplessly and said, "Uncle Shi, I can't play this chess game today, I have something to talk about......
"Go ahead, you kid's stinky chess, it's boring to play with you......"
The old man waved his hand, completely forgetting that his son had lost his armor when he was killed while playing chess.
"What's the matter, where is this going?"
After Zhuang Rui said goodbye to the old man, as soon as he walked to the door of the courtyard, he met Gu Yun who came back from shopping for vegetables, and after some explanation, he was released by Gu Yun.
Zhuang Rui turned back to his house, picked up Qin Xuanbing, and when he came to the hotel where Tom was staying, it was already past six o'clock in the evening, and it was time for dinner.
"Have a beef curry and rice, Tom, what do you want to eat? I'm in for a treat today......
After Zhuang Rui ordered food for himself and Qin Xuanbing, he handed the menu to Tom, don't look at this as a five-star hotel, it is not too expensive to eat in a Western restaurant, a piece of curry beef, but more than 100 yuan, no wonder there are so many petty bourgeoisie who look like white-collar workers sitting next to him.
"Oh, dear Zhuang, you Chinese so enthusiastic......"
Tom is not polite at all, he has never been used to the AA system, and now someone has a treat, Tom ordered several Chinese dishes, Zhuang Rui couldn't cry or laugh when he saw it, if it wasn't for convenience, he would take him to find a Chinese restaurant to eat.
"This is the information of that plane, Zhuang, you take a look first......"
While waiting for the food to be served, Tom handed Zhuang Rui a bag of information in his hand, which was either faxed or printed out of pictures he had accepted from the Internet.
"The performance and parameters of the aircraft are basically the same as the one you booked, but the interior decoration is slightly different, and the difference is not very big, if you want to change, half a month is enough......"
Tom enthusiastically compared those materials and pictures, and introduced them to Zhuang Rui one by one, if he could promote this business, Tom's position in the company must be able to rise to a higher level.
In other words, Raytheon is also very interested in the Chinese market, and is preparing to set up an institution in China, the specific candidate has not yet been decided, Tom has studied in China before, so there is a good chance to fight for this position.
"Xuan Bing, what do you see......"
Zhuang Rui roughly browsed the specific parameters of the plane, he didn't understand these things, as for the decoration pattern in the cabin, it was very luxurious, almost all the things that the high-roller model could be equipped with, all included, luxury gave people a nouveau riche feeling.
Zhuang Rui was right, the person who originally ordered this private jet was an authentic nouveau riche, and the number of billionaires and destitute people on Wall Street every year is directly proportional, and someone gets rich every day, and similarly, someone goes bankrupt every day.
However, Zhuang Rui does not care very much about these interior decorations, although the reason for his purchase of a private jet seems absolutely incredible to many people, but Zhuang Rui bought a private jet, first, for convenience, and secondly, it is indeed to travel with a white lion, which is the most real idea in Zhuang Rui's heart.
"I don't like this style very much......"
Qin Xuanbing looked at those pictures and frowned, in fact, before she came, she had decided with Zhuang Rui that if this aircraft could meet their needs in terms of performance, she would buy it, after all, if it was ordered, it would take eight months.
However, before coming, Qin Xuanbing discussed with Zhuang Rui to lower the price as much as possible, although Zhuang Rui made the money easily, but it was not a strong wind.
"Oh, this beautiful lady, regarding the interior decoration, we can modify it according to your previous request, all for free......"
After Tom heard Qin Xuanbing's words, he hurriedly explained.
"Tom, if we go out to buy a private jet, do we have to pay extra for decorations?"
Zhuang Rui doesn't like to listen to Tom always put the word free on his lips, the wool is out of the sheep, you foreign devil is stupid as a buddy?
"Ah, uh, of course, these expenses are included in the purchase price...... Tom was stunned for a moment by Zhuang Rui's words, but he was honest and admitted it very frankly.
"In addition, I don't like the setting of this cabin door, Mr. Tom, you should know that the original drawings for your company should be a round arch and smaller, which is completely inconsistent with this size, I hope your company can remodel it according to our plan......"
After Qin Xuanbing's words were finished, Tom was dumbfounded, if there were any changes to the interior decoration of the cabin, it didn't matter, but if the cabin door was modified, it would involve the size of the aircraft.
You must know that an aircraft must conform to many principles such as mechanics and aerodynamics, and the aircraft that has been finalized basically cannot be modified to the external structure, because it involves the modification of the entire aircraft, and the money required for this change is very large.
Looking at the dishes brought by the waiter, Tom felt his appetite, with Qin Xuanbing's words, there was nothing left, and the original talent with all the color and flavor was now in Tom's eyes, and those stiff steaks were almost the same.
Tom originally thought that Zhuang Rui was in a hurry to want the goods, and he could sell this plane, but now it seems unlikely, because the company will definitely not agree to Qin Xuanbing's modification plan, in that case, the plane sold to Zhuang Rui will have almost no profit at all.
"This beautiful lady ......"
Although Qin Xuanbing was not beautiful at all in Tom's eyes at the moment, "I'm afraid we won't be able to do this request of yours, even if it is possible, we need to pay a fee for the change......"
"Tom, the price we negotiated before is the price of a complete aircraft, so it's not reasonable to charge for an additional fee, right?"
Zhuang Rui interrupted Tom's words, and continued: "After all, this plane is different from the style I need, do you think it is reasonable for me to spend the price that can buy an aircraft that I am satisfied with?"
Zhuang Rui's words are already very thorough, that is, if I want to buy this plane, the price cannot be according to the original price, otherwise it is unreasonable, you like to sell whoever you want.
However, Zhuang Rui obviously overestimated Tom's Chinese level, and this tongue twister made Tom a little dazed, and finally Zhuang Rui translated it for him again in English.
"Oh, dear Zhuang, yes, if you're willing to buy this plane outright and make a lump sum payment, we can give you $500,000 cheaper, what do you think?"
After listening to Zhuang Rui's words, Tom immediately gave a solution, of course, this is within his purview, after all, it may cost more to transform such an aircraft.
"No, Tom, you're so insincere, you know, I told you earlier that in the cabin, you need to put a sofa made of rosewood, you know, that kind of rosewood sofa, one is 500,000 dollars, and I need four, that's 2 million dollars.
And now these leather sofas are too classless, plus I saved you the money to remodel the model, I think, 3 million dollars cheaper, is acceptable to me......"
Zhuang Rui bullied this foreigner who didn't know what red sandalwood was, and opened his mouth, saying that there is no red sandalwood sofa in this world? At the moment, it was also a lion's big mouth, and the whole machine was only about 12 million US dollars, and Zhuang Rui cut down 3 million US dollars in one bite.
"This ...... This, Zhuang, I can't make the decision on this issue, I need to report it to the company first......"
Tom's forehead was sweating at Zhuang Rui's series of words, he was just a technical engineer who intended to become a manager, and he was really not good at negotiation skills, and he didn't know what words to use to refute Zhuang Rui.
"Of course, Tom, you can submit my opinion to the company, I don't mind waiting eight months before having my own private jet, come, let's have dinner first......"
Zhuang Rui made a nonchalant look, and motioned to the waiter next to him that he could pour the wine.
