Chapter 120: Don't give an inch
and Robert. After Abner agreed on the time of the inspection, Hu Youmin and his entourage bid farewell to them and returned to the hotel to prepare to go to Amsterdam, the Netherlands, the next day.
Although it was late, Meng Siya was still waiting for them at the hotel. In Hu Youmin's room, after listening to the results of the negotiation, she said happily: "Basically, there is no problem, congratulations." ”
He smiled and asked her, "Do you spend the whole day in the hotel?" and she nodded and said, "Talk to the two heads of luxury Asia in the hotel." ”
"Which two companies?" he asked, brewing his coffee. "Cosmopolitan in Florence, Italy, a company that produces leather goods. France's Charyn company, which produces clothing. She replied.
He handed her a cup of coffee, put his coffee on the table, sat down on the couch and stretched out, and asked, "How was the talk?"
She said with a sad face: "Their asking prices are high, and I can basically only earn some OEM fees, in this case, it is equivalent to working for them for nothing, what's the point?"
"Specifically, how much does a women's bag cost 3,000 for brand usage?"
"It costs 2,800 yuan, deducting all kinds of costs and taxes, and I can earn 30 yuan at most. ”
"How did they get the 2,800 yuan?"
"They only send quality inspectors, where the inspection of qualified products, only marked with LOGO quality, issued a product code, according to the number of codes issued to calculate the money. ”
"They set the quantity to produce, and they recycle all the products?
"Yes, there's no loophole. ”
He picked up his coffee and took a sip, his mind racing through it. After a few minutes, he put down his coffee and said, "Since they only use us as money-making machines, we don't have to be polite to them." ”
"You break down the cost, add a little bit to the data, and see if you can't ask for more OEM fees, you have to fight for a dime, and it will accumulate more. ”
"Secondly, we must determine the monthly processing volume with them, and if it exceeds or falls below this amount, there must be a subsidy, which is a hole dug for them. ”
"The reason is that you should prepare a little more yourself, such as increasing the processing volume, increasing the number of workers, training, and increasing plant equipment, etc., and the processing volume is not enough, so the reason is better to find. ”
"Actually, we OEM their brand, it's just a. Through OEM, accumulate technology and experience, train our own designers, and mainly produce and promote our own brands in the future. ”
"The sales channel is in our own hands, and the employees mainly promote their products. Because of their branding, it's much easier to sell. ”
"Bags of the same quality produced in the same factory have so many price differences, as long as customers are not too vain, they will choose our brand. ”
"From the very beginning, our brand should be produced and promoted according to the standards of luxury, and strive to become a real luxury brand within three to five years. ”
She was in a better mood and said with a smile: "Your trick is to repair the plank road and secretly cross the Chen Cang, which is good." It seems that foreign devils don't have your ghosts, not your opponents. ”
He smiled and said, "If they do business with us fairly and sincerely, we should also be honest with each other, and I can die fewer brain cells." ”
"Judging from the current situation, it doesn't make much sense for me to participate in the negotiations, and you will take me to see Adrien tomorrow. After Latin, he went to work on his own, striving to sign the agreement in the next few days and return home together. ”
"It's not early, you go back and rest, there are still many things to do tomorrow." I'm going to take a shower too, and I'm sticky. ”
She let out an "um" and didn't get up. She blushed and said, "Youmin, I feel very safe and comfortable with you, you are like a big umbrella, blocking the scorching sun and wind and rain." ”
"As soon as I went back to my room, I was alone, and I was a little scared and uneasy. You're in a suite, and I'll sleep on the couch outside, okay?"
Looking at her blushing face, his heart was pounding, this was the legendary counterattack?
She whispered, "Don't think nonsense, I haven't slept peacefully for a long time, I feel solid by your side, and I want to take a good rest." ”
Seeing her pitiful and helpless appearance, he realized that he had thought too much, she was by no means seducing him, this was a strong woman, weak after removing her disguise.
This made him very embarrassed, the lonely man and the widow slept in a room, saying that they were innocent, and the ghost believed it. If it reaches Wang Lei's ears, how can he explain it?
There are also Luo Juan and Cheng Sisi, none of whom are easy to talk to. Looking at Luo Juan's ruthlessness with Tian Xiaoyu last time, if she really had a bit of a romantic affair, maybe she would really give herself a click.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shudder. He jokingly said, "Sister Meng, isn't this good? Men can't resist temptation." ”
She didn't have any worries, and said with a smile: "I know you are a righteous gentleman, don't worry, sister, you go take a bath, I'm going to rest." ”
After saying that, he lay on his side on the sofa and prepared for sleep. Seeing this, it was impossible for her to go back to her room, so he had to say helplessly: "You sleep in the bed, I sleep in the sand." ”
Hearing him say this, she was not polite at all, and got up and went to bed. He shook his head and took his clothes to take a shower.
After washing, only the lights in the aisle were left, and the other lights were turned off. He tossed and turned on the couch and couldn't sleep for a long time.
Sleeping in the same room with a beautiful young woman, and he is in the prime of life, is it strange that he can sleep?
Hearing a slight snoring from inside, he cursed himself in his heart: "Concentration is not as good as a woman, can't you be pure?
Thinking about it like this, the heat on my body slowly disappeared, and the thought of negotiating tomorrow hit me with a feeling of fatigue, and it didn't take long for me to fall asleep.
Meng Siya didn't fall asleep at first, the snoring was pretended by her, her heart was not as calm as it seemed to be, but she was actually nervous to death.
Will he come in? What if he comes? Will he continue to pretend to be asleep? Or will he go with his heart? Her heart beats even more intensely when she hears him roll over outside.
Just as she was thinking and feeling uneasy, there was a faint snoring outside. She got up quietly, took a blanket, walked outside, and gently covered him.
He still looked so handsome when he slept, she couldn't help but kiss him gently on his handsome face, and hurried back to the room to sleep.
Hu Youmin has the habit of getting up early and wakes up at five o'clock in the morning. After he finished washing, he saw that Meng Siya was still sleeping so sweetly, and there was a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Afraid that other people would come to him after getting up and bumping into this scene, he woke her up and asked her to go back to her room to sleep, she rubbed her eyes and left obediently.
He let go of his hanging heart, moved his body, and began to practice boxing in the room. I practiced twice, but I didn't stop until I was sweating, and I went to the bathroom to take a shower.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, I arrived in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and the president of Jinhua Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. Adrian. Latins personally greeted them at the airport.
On the way, Meng Siya whispered to Hu Youmin that she and Adrian. Latina has a good personal relationship, he is a very discerning and ambitious person.
Adrian. Latin is only in his forties, about the same height as him, but much fatter than him. Adrian. Latins are enthusiastic and talkative, introducing them to the sights of Amsterdam along the way.
After arriving at the company, I went to the conference room to start the negotiation without resting. According to Hu Youmin's request, Meng Siya was ready to leave England and go to Adrian. Latin asked her to come along.
She looked at Hu Youmin, he nodded slightly at her, and she sat down for the meeting. He Lijuan handed over the relevant information, and they looked at it seriously.
Jinhua Company not only produces computers, but also digital cameras, and is very famous. This time, I recommended to them computer motherboards, graphics cards, sound cards, memory modules, hard disks, digital camera motherboards, memory cards, and batteries.
After they read it, the manager of the technical department said: "The performance and quality of your products can meet the requirements of our company and can be adopted." ”
The purchasing manager continued: "Your price advantage is also obvious, and you can use your products. ”
The people in the negotiation team were very happy to hear this, but only Hu Youmin remained silent and looked at Adrian. Latina, waiting for him to speak. Things are going too well, and there must be demons when things go wrong.
Adrian. Latin saw Hu Youmin looking at him without saying a word, knowing that he was waiting for his statement. He smiled and said, "Your products are really good, and our company is willing to adopt your products." ”
"You can have most of the accessories for a computer, and it also solves the compatibility problem very well. We buy the parts from you, assemble them and sell them to China, do we have to pay tariffs twice?"
Hu Youmin smiled and asked, "Adrian." Mr. Latin means to set up a branch in China?" he pointed to and said, "Mr. Hu reacted quickly, I will build a joint venture company with you in China." ”
"With our brand and technology, you are responsible for assembling and selling. We each invest half, but we have to take 51 percent of the shares, and we have 60 percent of the profits. ”
"If the cooperation goes well, our digital cameras will also be produced in China, and the cooperation model will be the same as that of computers, what does Mr. Hu think?"
Hu Youmin smiled and said, "First of all, thank you Adrian. Mr. Latin has placed his trust in us, and I would like to share my views below. ”
"Since it is a joint venture and cooperation, both sides must be sincere. Only when it is built on the basis of equality, fairness and justice can it be called cooperation. ”
"The reason why you ask for this is so high is because you think you have the brand and the technology. IMHO, in the European market, maybe you can say that. ”
"But in the Chinese market, your computers don't have much market share, let alone brand effect. As for computer technology, not to mention it. ”
"In terms of computers, you don't have your own core technology, all of them are purchased from outside and assembled by yourself, you only need to solve compatibility and stability, and this is not a technology. ”
"But I admire Adrien. Mr. Latin's vision saw the huge city of China and its development potential. ”
"If Adrien. Mr. Latin sincerely cooperates with us, and we can make concessions on the controlling stake in the company, but the pay should be proportional to the return, and we must pay attention to win-win cooperation. ”
After saying that, he looked at them quietly. His attitude was unexpected by Jinhua Company, usually the Chinese side begged to cooperate and invest with them, and it was normal for them to ask for a higher price.
Unexpectedly, he didn't make any concessions, and directly stated their shortcomings, which made them a little embarrassed. Adrian. Latin said coldly: "Mr. Hu, there are many Chinese who want to cooperate with us. ”
He said without humility: "I believe in Adrien. Mr. Latin's words, but think about it, what are they trying to do with you, knowing that they are not profitable?"
"Is this kind of cooperation really reliable? Can you rest assured? There is no such thing as a free lunch, and anything that violates the norm is very risky. ”
