Chapter 929: Lease?

"Haha, Mr. Jiang said with a smile. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Ye Lao smiled, "If Mr. Jiang is just a businessman, then how can it be embarrassing for thousands of businessmen in this world." ”

Jiang Chen smiled, didn't answer, and raised his hand slightly to make a gesture of please.

"It's not appropriate to stand and talk, please take a seat first. ”

The three of them took their seats at the tea seat in the reception room, and the waiter poured tea for Jiang Chen, Ye Lao, and Ye Yunfei respectively, and then respectfully stepped aside. Ye Yunfei professionally took out the notebook and pen from the briefcase and prepared the minutes of the meeting.

Seeing Jiang Chen sitting there alone, Ye Lao was slightly surprised. Although it was a private visit, what was going to be discussed later was after all related to the cooperative relationship between the two countries, and Jiang Chen's attitude was still a little too informal.

Out of kindness, Ye Lao asked remindedly.

"Doesn't Mr. Jiang need an assistant to take notes of the meeting?"

"My assistant has arrived. Jiang Chen smiled and tapped the watch in his left hand and said in a relaxed tone.

Ye Lao was slightly stunned, not understanding what he meant. Ye Yunfei, who was sitting next to his deputy, looked at Jiang Chen with a slight hint of disappointment, the bearing he showed just now made her recognize it a little, but now seeing him treat this kind of high-level negotiation so playfully, it instantly knocked back the little positive image he had built up in her mind.

Ye Yunfei didn't feel Jiang Chen paid attention at all, but he saw through the confusion on Ye Lao's face at a glance.

Obviously, the old man didn't understand what he meant.

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen smiled and reached out to tap on his watch. Dark blue light and shadow intersect around the watch, weaving a three-dimensional female holographic bust. Looking at Ye Lao and Ye Yunfei, who were glazed over, the artificial intelligence Jian nodded slightly.

"Jane, that's my name. ”

Ye Lao was stunned and looked at everything that was happening in front of him. Although I have heard a little about the holographic technology of Future Human Technology, it is far less shocking than what I have seen with my own eyes. The expression on Ye Yunfei's face at the moment is not far behind, although the Future mobile phone produced by Future People Technology she uses also has its own holographic imaging function, but it can't do it to this extent.

"This Ms. Jane is my personal assistant. ”

"She's ......"

"It's artificial intelligence. Jiang Chen said with a smile.

Ye Lao nodded clearly, he had recovered from the initial shock, and said with a gentle smile, "Artificial intelligence? If it weren't for Mr. Jiang's reminder, I would almost have to treat Miss Jian as a real person." It is worthy of the future human technology that leads the world's cutting-edge technology, and what you come up with always shocks us. ”

In the early days, Jiang Chen's Future Man Technology once designed a drone system for the military, and the military still praises the system that has almost no obvious bugs. The Xianglong II high-altitude UAV independently developed by Huaguo, with the assistance of this intelligent control system, has maximized its performance advantages.

And today, when Ye Lao saw this artificial intelligence "Jane", who was almost no different from a real person, he couldn't help but sigh secretly.

It seems that he was still underestimated at the beginning.

"You've won a prize. Jiang Chen smiled faintly and said, "Let's get to the point early." ”

Ye Lao nodded, the smile on his face gradually converged, and changed to a formal expression.

"Since Mr. Jiang said so, then I won't beat around the bush. I have come to Xinguo to visit you this time precisely for the space elevator that you have recently completed. Although China's space activities are not frequent and the market size is quite limited, we are quite interested in the amazing technology you have showcased. ”

"So, what is your proposal?" Jiang Chen smiled.

Ye Lao cleared his throat and smiled kindly.

"We look forward to working closely with you on the development of space resources. After internal discussions, the cooperation plan developed by our side is that we will set up Huaguo Space Resources Development Company, and sign an elevator track leasing agreement with the other party for 50 years, leasing two freight and two passenger elevator tracks for space resource development. ”

Lease ?2 each?

Jiang Chen was really amazed by Ye Lao's proposal.

Although he didn't expect to negotiate any results on the first day, the cooperation plan proposed by Ye Lao was too fanciful. There are only twelve passenger and freight tracks in the space elevator, and you want four as soon as you open your mouth, how can I agree with you!

In fact, Ye Lao would not blame him for coming up with such a proposal, after all, this was a plan studied by a high-level internal meeting. At present, the space activities of various countries are not very frequent, and although they are very optimistic about the prospects for the development of space resources, no one can estimate the prospects accurately.

Seeing that Jiang Chen didn't speak, Ye Lao thought he was thinking, so he paused, and then added.

"The price is negotiable, and the figure you gave is within a reasonable range. ”

"If there is anything you are not satisfied with in the cooperation plan, we can talk slowly. ”

The silence lasted for a long time at the tea table.

The pen that Ye Yunfei was writing stopped and looked at Jiang Chen, who was speechless, with a slight frown. In her opinion, her grandfather's conditions were already quite generous, and he lowered his profile to come to Xinguo to talk to him about it in person, and she didn't understand what he was dissatisfied with.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Chen opened his mouth, but did not speak.

Eventually, he sighed and broke the silence in the reception room.

"Looks like we'll have to talk slowly. ”

Hearing Jiang Chen's words, Ye Lao frowned slightly.

"Oh, it seems that Mr. Jiang has a lot of dissatisfaction with the agreement, you might as well bring up the differences between us-"

"We have a lot of disagreements about the agreement itself," Jiang Chen leaned back in his chair and spread his hands, "Transwarp Trade has never had any intention of leasing a space elevator, even if it is one of the orbits. We are willing to provide countries with low-cost outer space transportation services, which is currently the only service we sell. ”

In total, there are only twelve tracks, six freight, and six passenger. There are five permanent members, you rent four, he rents four, if it is divided like this, the space elevator built by Transwarp Trade will not be enough. Transwarp Trade will never lease the track in any form, and it must not open this opening.

Jiang Chen's words made Ye Lao's expression stiffen slightly.

Just as Jiang Chen didn't expect them to propose such a thing as a lease agreement, he also didn't expect Jiang Chen to refuse so decisively. In his opinion, this plan studied by the central government is quite worthy of them.

However, Ye Lao did not have a seizure, he still knew after all that he was negotiating with foreign companies.

However, just as he was about to speak, Ye Yunfei, who had been making notes, suddenly opened his mouth.

"I wonder if Mr. Jiang knows one thing, the United Nations is currently preparing to convene a high-level summit on the development of outer space?"

"Yun Fei!" the old man glared at his granddaughter and motioned for her to shut up.

However, this time Ye Yunfei did not give in, but stared at Jiang Chen deadly, trying to detect a trace of jealousy in his pupils.

This is the negotiation skill that her teacher taught her.

At the negotiating table, there is no more than one way to expand one's own advantage, and that is to seize the weakness of the other side and force the other side to make concessions on non-core interests. And how to grasp the weakness of the other party, it depends on the chips in the hands of both sides, as well as the art of negotiation.

Although she is the second daughter of the Ye family and lives a life that is simply born with a golden spoon in the eyes of others, she never thinks that this is something to envy. He received an aristocratic education since he was a child, and his fate when he grew up was already doomed. For the benefit of the family, marry a strange man, and marry and teach children for the rest of his life for the person he doesn't love at all......

She had thought that with a master's degree from Harvard, she would be able to escape this doomed fate. However, when she returned to China and happened to hear that her father planned to marry her to the unfortunate little son of the Zhou family, she almost fell into despair.

She is unwilling to be a puppet at the mercy of the family, and her fate is at the mercy of the family. And in order to do this, to gain freedom in the true sense of the word, she must achieve enough to prove herself, and prove that her ability is far more than just a fertility tool for political marriage!

The results here do not refer to any TOEFL, SAT or Harvard University degree certificates, for a famous family like the Ye family, these titles are just titles. And the reason why she begged her grandfather to take her to Xinguo with her and participate in the negotiations as an assistant was precisely to prove herself!

What could be more than a way to prove his ability to force Jiang Chen to make concessions in the negotiations and gain an advantage for the country in the originally deadlocked negotiations?

Not to mention, in her opinion, it was just too easy.

She didn't see any elite qualities or knowledge from Jiang Chen, although she could be calm and unhurried when talking to her grandfather, it was just the arrogance of a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers.

Neither has received a super-first-class education, nor has he undergone any high-level cultural edification, such a rough person, even if he is placed in the position of chairman of a large company with a market value of 100 billion, is just a simple-minded nouveau riche. If it weren't for a group of capable subordinates, would he be where he is today?

Thinking of this, the corners of Ye Yunfei's mouth hooked up a triumphant smile.

"Huaguo is one of the permanent members of the Security Council, and Mr. Jiang should be well aware of what that means. In addition, the conditions we can give are definitely much more favorable than those of the Americans, and I believe that if it is not us who comes to negotiate, but the Americans, I am afraid that what they ask for will not be a lease. ”

At the end of the point, Ye Yunfei no longer spoke, just looked at Jiang Chen with a smile.

The stakes have been clarified, and in her opinion, she has won the battle.

However, she was doomed to disappointment.

Jiang Chen did not show the slightest jealousy, but looked at her a few times playfully.

"So what?" (To be continued.) )
