PS: Dear book friends, I ask for support for the new book. Favorites and recommended tickets, thank you.

William Cahill, don't get me wrong, is not the famous European bookmaker. Although the name translates similarly, this is a real American import-export company.

This is a company that does foreign trade agency, that is, it specializes in import and export business. Help other companies to import the goods they need from abroad. The company's owner is William Cahill, an honor graduate of Harvard Business School.

William Cahill's company had previously been assigned a toy production agency from a well-known toy company to find OEM factories from countries with low labor value-added. Of course, the fact that he was able to get the agent of this toy from this famous toy company also has something to do with his family background. His family belonged to the American upper class, his father was a businessman, and his mother was a government official. This is the main reason why he was able to own his own company as soon as he graduated and was able to pull a big business.

It's the same in the United States, where there is money and people who can do things.

Fresh out of Harvard and starting his own company with the support of his parents, the young William Cahill is ready to make a big splash. This negotiation with an agency in Huaxia was his company's first big business, and he attached great importance to it, so he personally brought someone over to negotiate. Try to open up the vast Chinese market and take the first step of your own brilliant life.

However, in reality, the cause of this business meeting was nothing more than an accidental docking between a second-rate salesman and a rookie in a shopping mall. Promise is the type of person who will fight for business opportunities when he finds them. Typical universal casting of the net, focusing on cultivation.

And William Cahill, who has just left the ivory tower, has not completely shaken off his college career, he is just a fledgling with illusions about the future. Otherwise, this business, which may be worth millions of dollars, would not have been promised so easily.

When the young and vigorous William Cahill walked into the spacious and luxurious airport hall of the Imperial Capital International Airport, his heart swelled with pride: "My business, I am here!" ”

The boss of the company that promised to work before attaches great importance to this foreign-related business, because it is likely to become a long-term business. In order to highlight the strength of his company, he also specially rented a top luxury business car from the car dealer as a reception car, and took several of the company's official cars to the airport to pick up people.

"Mr. William, welcome to Huaxia. We have already booked a hotel for you. "The scene after the two sides met at the airport was like in a movie, with more than a dozen 'successful people' in suits and leather shoes laughing and shaking hands, and everyone felt that they were old and successful. It's a pity that this is the Imperial Capital International Airport, and the passengers who come and go around are at most scanned and left in a hurry, which fails to have an excellent background effect.

People from all over the world who do business in this era basically know some Chinese, after all, this is the largest business market in the world. However, in order to highlight that he is a big businessman and the boss of a large company, William Cahill specially brought a senior assistant to the president, who is also his classmate at Harvard Business School, and a Chinese international student as a full-time translator. In fact, he is an assistant and a translator.

"Hello." The translator named He Xiaoyong, no, it was the senior assistant to the president who raised his hand and pushed his gold-rimmed glasses, and responded in fluent English, "We hope to start negotiations as soon as possible, the chairman's affairs are busy, and I hope you don't waste time." ”

He Xiaoyong's words made the promise on the side frown slightly, is this guy teasing 13? It doesn't look like you're here to talk about business, it's like you're here to give alms.

"Of course, of course." The boss who promised squinted his eyes and turned around and stretched out his hand to signal, "Please." ”

The rest of the story is simple, a group of people return to the company in the large conference room for standard business negotiations. William Cahill basically doesn't speak, and looks like a big boss I'm busy. However, his senior assistant to the president, He Xiaoyong, kept chattering in English about how powerful his company is, and how face-saving it is to be able to come here and cooperate with your company this time. It seems that this international business meeting is very important.

The negotiators on the promise side didn't care much about these things, and agreed with a smile. However, when the two sides talked about the soft sister coin, their faces immediately changed, and they began to fight for me.

William Cahill brought a lot of people, but unfortunately they were basically rookies who had just left school. After all, it is very difficult for a rookie to recruit real talent without spending a lot of money.

William Cahill's company wanted to keep prices as low as possible and also wanted to get in direct contact with manufacturers. On the other hand, the promise side is constantly ripping over the price, and firmly holding down the agency and unwilling to let go.

The two sides went back and forth, arguing in the conference room from the morning to the afternoon. Until the sun outside the window had begun to gradually set in the west, the two groups of people who had just hurriedly eaten a business package at noon still failed to talk.

"It's not too early, let's settle our differences tomorrow." Seeing that there would be no progress today, the boss of the promised company ended the meeting very well and took a large group of people to the hotel for a table meeting.

Xu didn't want to go originally, but now he doesn't care about these things. It's not as important to have this time as it is to go back to the gym. It's just that I have to follow for the sake of those soft sister coins.

When it comes to the principled issue of money, the traditional Chinese drinking table has not made much progress. The promise that didn't come out much for a whole day was eating haese while watching those former colleagues desperately behave themselves. Especially when he saw that the little fat man's face was pale because of the desperate drinking, and his throat was constantly surging all the time.

The promise was also very emotional in his heart. If it weren't for the opportunity to change his fate, maybe he would be one of them now. People, it's all about living.

The banquet ended, and everyone went back to their own homes, and there was nothing to say all night.

The next day's negotiations still did not make any progress, much to the dissatisfaction of both sides. After all, it is the Americans who take the initiative to seek agents, and they want to contact the manufacturer directly for the first cooperation, and they don't understand the basic business common sense? How did you graduate from that shabby building at Harvard Business School?

And William Cahill's side is also confused. Doesn't it mean that the business of the Chinese people is very good? It's not uncommon for people to give discounts as long as they're willing to buy their products. Why does this side keep biting and not letting go?

After two days of fruitless negotiations, the promised boss was ready to make a big move.

"Tomorrow is the weekend, so I think we'll rest. Mr. William, what do you like about a relaxing trip, what do you think? "This off-the-counter negotiation is a nirvana of the promised boss, and how many times the business has been negotiated off-the-counter. The confident boss thinks this time will be no exception.

"Good." Cahill, who was also a little tired, nodded, "I'm a member of the Gun Club, there should be a professional shooting range here in the imperial capital, right?" Tomorrow we're going to try our marksmanship. ”

"Huh?" The promised boss opened his mouth and looked at William Cahill in surprise. Nima's script is not right, I'm talking about business casual, although it's also a gun, but it's not this kind of gun!

William Cahill's translator is a knowledgeable person, the white-faced bearded, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, He Xiaoyong didn't want to miss this kind of good thing, coughed and then approached William Cahill's side and whispered, "BOSS, although there is also a shooting range here, but there are no excellent shooters." You won't have a lot of fun in the past, so it's better to "

"It's okay." William Cahill grinned and looked at the boss who promised, "Mr. Huang, there are big differences between us, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to reach an agreement." Let's go to the shooting range tomorrow to compete in guns, and whoever wins this business will operate according to whose opinion. What do you think? ”

After a pause, William Cahill's gaze swept over the people in the conference room, "Of course, the participants are limited to all of you. ”

Although William Cahill is a newcomer to the mall, he also knows that one night is enough time for Boss Huang to pay for a professional gunman. So he was very happy to frame the candidates within this range.

"That's not good, is it?" Boss Huang was also a little angry, Americans don't ban guns, these people basically have good marksmanship. Just look at that William Cahill's confident appearance, you know that his marksmanship must be good.

But where did the firearms come from in Huaxia for ordinary people to play with? Who goes to the shooting range to play with guns when they're fine? It's better to play with guns in bed than to have that time. Doesn't this make it clear that bullying your side to lose? Although I wanted to negotiate this deal, it didn't come to this point.

"I don't have much time." William Cahill waved his hand and said with a nonchalant expression, "I have already negotiated a preliminary intention with a company in the magic capital. If we can't make progress tomorrow, then I'm going to end this business meeting and go to the magic capital. William Cahill spread his hands and a smile on his face, "After all, we are the buyer, aren't we?" ”

These words were very harsh, and many company employees in the conference room couldn't control their expressions, and their faces were ugly. And Boss Huang's ears were red even after a long battle. The Yankees don't follow the rules, which is simply humiliating them.

"Good, good!" Boss Huang smiled angrily, "Since this is the case, then we will decide the winner on the shooting range tomorrow." Whoever wins, follow whoever's plan! ”

"It's a deal."
