Chapter 238 [Sharp Turn]
When I returned to the hotel after lunch, Xue Tingting's phone called, saying that it was Henry? Kleiman's attitude suddenly made a 180-degree turn, which made her very uncomfortable, and then asked Shi Lei if it was inconvenient to find a place to finalize this matter in the afternoon.
Shi Lei also felt strange, originally according to the communication between him and Xue Tingting the night before, they all thought that Henry began to become extremely stubborn when he got older, although he should also understand that his actions yesterday were quite taboo, but the matter has come to this, what he thinks about is not to save anything, but to think of a better way to explain to the board of directors of the Dutch headquarters. If you can sabotage this cooperation, it is good to let Shi Lei pay some young price, even if it can't be destroyed, he will never invite Shi Lei to continue to discuss cooperation so quickly.
But she couldn't ask the reason from Xue Tingting's phone call, Xue Tingting just knew that Henry didn't show up in the morning, and she couldn't find Henry. When Henry showed up, Henry told her directly and asked her to contact Shi Lei to continue to discuss cooperation. Moreover, the attitude is obviously much more sincere, and it seems that there is a determination to solve the matter.
With questions, Shi Lei sat in the hotel room, patiently waiting for Henry and Xue Tingting to arrive. On the phone just now, Shi Lei and Xue Tingting agreed to talk in their hotel room, and then called Henry to inform him that he would leave immediately.
"Why did that dead old man suddenly change his mind?" Su Doudou asked with big eyes, and then smiled excitedly: "Could it be that I woke him up yesterday?" ”
Shi Lei rolled his eyes: "Don't make any more trouble for me today, Wu Dong and Shen Puke are waiting for me to sign the contract on Philips' side, and they will immediately start to act and arrange." I'm hoping to get the contract as soon as possible. ”
"Okay, okay, you're really a mother, I'll shut up today, okay? Just watch you talk. But why did he suddenly change his mind? She also knew that her insulting remarks would only make Henry more and more dissatisfied, and would not bring any benefit to the negotiations.
Shi Lei smiled: "Don't worry about him, someone has put enough pressure on Henry." And no matter who this person is, he will always surface, and there is no such thing in this world where he only does good deeds without leaving a name. ”
Su Doudou rolled his eyes unconvinced: "Who said no?" Lei Feng! ”
Shi Lei nodded solemnly: "Well, Comrade Lei Feng never leaves his name for doing good deeds, but he will write it in the notes." ”
Su Doudou was stunned for a moment, then laughed, and hit Shi Lei's shoulder twice with a continuous fist: "You are too damaged, you are not allowed to defile our great Comrade Lei Feng." ”
Shi Lei smiled and messed around with Su Doudou, and after a while, the doorbell rang, Shi Lei hurriedly signaled Su Doudou to silence, and inevitably had to say: "Sister Daji, who is unparalleled in the world, you must be honest today, ok?" ”
Su Doudou was extremely impatient, waved her hand, and pretended to be fierce, as if Shi Lei said one more thing, she was going to turn her face with Shi Lei.
opened the door, and sure enough, Henry and Xue Tingting stood outside.
Henry no longer had the arrogance of yesterday, on the contrary, as soon as he saw Shi Lei very politely, he bent down with a smile and took the initiative to stretch out his hand: "Oh, dear Shi, I think there was some misunderstanding between us yesterday, I hope you don't mind, it won't affect the cooperation between us." ”
Shi Lei did not deliberately put up a shelf, in his opinion, since he still has to talk to the other party, then the shelf is useless, and it will only cause unnecessary trouble to the details of cooperation.
"Hehe, I think it's also some misunderstanding, but since it's a misunderstanding, we shouldn't let it affect our normal cooperation. Please come in, please come in, sit casually, what do you need to drink? After letting him in, Shi Lei motioned for them to sit down, and he saw Xue Tingting nodding at him slightly.
Shi Lei was inconvenient to say too much, just sat down opposite Henry, and said, "Why don't you have some coffee?" ”
Henry's attitude is obvious, now it is necessary to negotiate all the details of the cooperation as soon as possible, so he will cooperate with all of Shi Lei's actions as much as possible, and naturally he will not object.
"Call room service and bring a few cups of coffee." Shi Lei said to Su Doudou, Su Doudou blocked it with his body, and squirmed his lips at Shi Lei's demonstrative, but he still picked up the phone next to him and dialed the room service.
"Yesterday I happened to be worried about some things, and I was in a very bad mood, so I neglected the two of you in terms of attitude. However, I can also see that Mr. Shi is a very open-minded person, and he must not hold a grudge because of this little thing. ”
Shi Lei smiled: "It seems that Mr. Brightman should have thought very clearly after getting up this morning......" deliberately only said half of it, of course, Shi Lei only knew half of it, and deliberately left the words behind, Shi Lei noticed that Henry suddenly became cramped and uneasy, which shows that someone did find Henry in the morning and helped Shi Lei settle Henry. It is by no means a normal means, I am afraid that it is some coercive trick. It is almost impossible for Henry to say that he has never made any mistakes in China after all these years of being in China.
"Uh...... This one...... In fact, after Mr. Shi left yesterday, I regretted it very much, but at that time...... You know, I've always been a person with a head and a face, and it's always inconvenient...... Ahem......"
Shi Lei couldn't help laughing when he saw Henry's embarrassed appearance, and waved his hand to stop Henry's stammering confession: "Since Mr. Brightman has thought it through, and it was indeed just a misunderstanding yesterday, then I don't think it will cause any bad consequences." We might be able to talk directly about cooperation. ”
Next, Henry? Brightman is much more comfortable, once it doesn't involve his ** part of the matter, even if this cooperation is something he is not optimistic about and unwilling to do, he can still make a very professional performance.
But apparently Henry was affected by something in the morning, which caused him to be a little restrained during the negotiation, if it weren't for Xue Tingting, she would have stood on Philips's position and bargained with Shi Lei, and it was not good that Henry would sign a treaty with Shi Lei today that would lose power and humiliate the country.
Shi Lei didn't take advantage of this matter to bargain too much, and just according to the established plan, he hoped to get the lowest possible purchase price from Henry and Xue Tingting. Even if the price of each monitor is only a hundred dollars lower, tens of thousands of screens a year can be left in millions. For the investment of the whole project, this money is nothing, but no one will be afraid of money, right?
After four hours, Shi Lei and Henry finally reached a relatively unanimous opinion, and then, they only needed to wait for Henry to report the results of the negotiations to the Dutch headquarters, and then put it into words, and sign the cooperation contract under the guidance of a professional lawyer.
"Then I wish us a happy cooperation, and we will continue to have it." Shi Lei stood up with a smile and shook hands with Henry.
From beginning to end, Shi Lei did not show the strength to grasp the opponent's shortcomings, which made Henry have a new understanding of Shi Lei.
"Shi, until now I don't know why the board of directors attaches so much importance to this cooperation with you, and we have reached a relatively satisfactory consensus so far, now, can you tell me what exactly you used to attract our board of directors?"
Shi Lei smiled and shook his head: "I'm sorry, Henry, I can only tell you that this is a new advertising communication model, and I can even guarantee that once our model is promoted, your TVs, monitors and other electrical products will definitely get quite rich returns in the Chinese market." When the time comes, you will find that this cooperation is a win-win cooperation, and you will also feel glad that you changed your mind today. It won't be long before we finalize the contract and you'll see our new advertising model soon. ”
Henry shrugged helplessly: "Damn trade secrets, but I can understand it." I still have to go to the headquarters to report the results of today's negotiations, Shi, I can't invite you to dinner, tomorrow, tomorrow I will invite you to eat the best roast duck in Pingjing and even in your China in Quanjude. ”
Shi Lei smiled: "If you don't go to the Great Wall, you are not a hero, it's a pity not to eat roast duck, I look forward to dealing with a roast duck with Mr. Brightman." ”
Henry and Xue Tingting said goodbye and left, Shi Lei breathed a sigh of relief, although this matter was a little twist and turn, it was successfully resolved.
Su Doudou looked disdainful: "Fool, Quanjude's roast duck has long been spoiled, so many people are like eating running water every day, what else can be made?" If you really want to eat roast duck, some are stronger than Quanjude. ”
Shi Lei laughed and looked at the time: "As soon as you said that I was really hungry, what's the matter, Miss Su Doudou, a gourmet, take me to eat roast duck that is stronger than Quanjude today?" ”
Su Doudou pouted: "Don't go, eat fried liver tonight to ......"
"Gotcha! Yesterday's belly, today's fried liver, is it time to eat stewed tomorrow? I said, why do you love to eat all the water? ”
Shi Lei said it casually, but after he finished speaking, Su Doudou held his chin with a sad face: "Ah, as soon as you say that I really want to eat stew, what should I do?" Do you eat stewed or fried liver at night? Troublesome! ”
However, Su Doudou's sorrow did not last long, because Shi Lei's phone rang, and when Shi Lei saw that it was Wang Daqi, he couldn't help but feel a little bit in his heart, although he was still confused.
"Brother Qi, what's the matter, you know that I'm coming to Pingjing, and you plan to invite me to dinner?" Shi Lei made a silent gesture at Su Doudou, and then answered the phone with a smile.
Wang Daqi also smiled: "I want to have dinner with you, I'm downstairs in Kempinski, you can bring Doudou down." ”
Shi Lei was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart that it was magical, even I knew that I lived in Kempinski.
Hanging up the phone, Shi Lei patted Su Doudou's head lightly: "Let's go, Wang Daqi is waiting for us downstairs, and ask the two of us to have dinner together." ”
Su Doudou wrinkled her little face, and wanted to bite Shi Lei with hatred, but after grinding her teeth for a long time, she found that Shi Lei didn't pay attention to her at all, just wore a coat and twisted the door, waiting for her to pass. She walked over with her hands very bored, and threw a big sanitary ball to Shi Lei.
got on the elevator and went downstairs, and when Shi Lei got out of the elevator, Su Doudou couldn't help but muttered in a low voice behind him: "What a nerd, I can't stand it!" Shishi, I hate you! ”
Shi Lei heard the movement, but he didn't hear what Su Doudou was saying clearly, so he turned around and asked, "What did you say?" ”
"Nothing!" Su Doudou said angrily, then rushed up in two steps, holding Shi Lei's arm, "Borrow your arm to use, I'm tired." Then, like a little monkey, he hung on Shi Lei's arm, making Shi Lei speechless, but he could only go with her.
Wang Daqi was standing in the Kempinski lobby in a military uniform, and as soon as Shi Lei saw him, he felt that something was wrong, and then found that Wang Daqi's epaulettes had changed, so he stepped forward: "Yo, congratulations, no longer a civilian?" ”
On his shoulders, there are two bars and two flowers, and the thirty-year-old lieutenant colonel can hold his head high wherever he goes. Even standing in this Kempinski, women who come and go will look back at this lieutenant colonel, who is not too handsome.
"Hehe, transferred to the General Staff. What do you want to eat at night? Wang Daqi has a sense of gratitude to Shi Lei, if it weren't for Shi Lei seeing Li Xiongfei's cattiness, what would happen to him, Wang Daqi didn't know, but at least he knew that he would definitely be implicated, originally Wang Daqi admired Shi Lei, and after this incident, he looked down on Shi Lei.
"We were upstairs just now, and Doudou was still in a dilemma about whether to eat braised or fried liver at night......
When Wang Daqi heard this, his face suddenly turned like earth, and he waved his hand again and again: "Doudou, just spare me, I have a headache when I see the water." ”
Su Doudou looked disdainful: "I don't know how to eat!" But forget it, there are a lot of old women, whatever you want! ”
Wang Daqi looked at Shi Lei with a bitter face again: "You don't want to eat these too, do you?" ”
Shi Lei smiled slightly: "I don't care at all, just fill my stomach." Old Henry, you helped me with that, right? You have just been transferred to the General Staff and you have great powers, I have arrived in Pingjing, you know, where I live, you know, what am I doing here, you are also Qing'er. ”
"It's a coincidence, I was also near Sanlitun last night, I didn't catch you and Doudou, and I bumped into Fang Xiao when I was going home. Fang Xiao told me these things, if I were really so powerful, I would have knocked on the door of your room directly, would I still need to call you to come down? ”
"Fang Xiao didn't know about me and Henry, so I said that I had a cooperation with Philips."
Wang Daqi smiled: "Doudou complained to Fang Xiao, saying that the old man was too arrogant, saying that he wanted to find someone to teach the old man a lesson." I made a phone call here and checked the entry records, and naturally I knew that it was Henry? Brightman is up. It just so happened that I had some dealings with him in the past, and I contacted him in the morning. ”
It seems to be very simple and easy, but Shi Lei knows that Wang Daqi must have spent a lot of effort inside, so he didn't say much, just said with a smile: "Then I won't ask in detail, I guess it's not convenient for you to tell me, in short, I just need to find Lei Feng who does good deeds." Thanks a lot. ”
"Between the two of us, we don't know who will thank whom! Moreover, what I want to tell you in a moment, I guess you really have to thank me. ”
"Oh? What's the matter? Shi Lei seemed to hear something off-string.
"Originally, I should have told you about this matter when I returned to Wudong in a while, but since you have come to Pingjing, it doesn't hurt for me to tell you in advance. But now let me sell it, and when I get to the hotel in a while, I'll see if you're sincere. As he spoke, Wang Daqi led Shi Lei and Su Doudou out of the hotel lobby, and there was a car of the General Staff waiting outside.
But as soon as he walked out of the hotel, Su Doudou asked impatiently: "Wang, where are you going to take us to dinner?" ”
"A friend's private place will definitely not be able to eat those snacks that you like."
Su Doudou said unhappily: "Yes, anyway, you must talk about things, I won't mix, it sounds weird and boring." I'll eat fried liver by myself, don't let Shi Shi drink too much wine! Otherwise, be careful of my ......."
Wang Daqi hurriedly smiled and said, "It's mainly to chat, not to drink." ”
Su Doudou waved his hand: "Let's go, I'll take a taxi by myself." Shishi, come back early, don't fool around with these people at night. "It's like a little housekeeper.
"Your relationship with Doudou has been developing rapidly lately?" Of course, Wang Daqi knew that Su Yanzhi entrusted Su Doudou to Shi Lei, but he also knew that Shi Lei and Su Doudou were just very good friends, but seeing Su Doudou's performance today, Wang Daqi was really a little confused. So Su Doudou walked with the front foot, and he asked Shi Lei with the back foot.
"I'm not like that with her! It's just that I learned a lot about her recently, and I realized that Doudou is actually quite pitiful. ”
Open the car door, and the two of them got into the car separately, one left and one right. The car quickly drove to Di'anmen East Street, and then got into a small alley.
Shi Lei actually knows very well that this neighborhood is the famous Nanluoguxiang, which is lined with small alleys, preserving many old buildings of the Ming Dynasty and even the Yuan Dynasty, and is also one of the protected areas of the old city of Pingjing.
"This alley is called Crutch Hutong, 200 meters long, I have a friend who bought two miscellaneous courtyards here, redesigned it, and made a relatively thoughtful courtyard. Ordinary people can't get in, no matter how big the official is, no matter how much money they have, and it is estimated that there will be no more than 80 people in all of China who have membership here. ”
Of course, Wang Daqi was not showing off, but he was just calmly introducing Shi Lei. And Shi Lei actually probably knows this place, when he was in his thirties, he also got a membership here, but at that time, this place was probably not the top private occasion in Pingjing City, so Shi Lei really never came here.
But in '98, it was probably one of the top private places in Heikyung.
The car stopped in front of the two black painted gates, and the two got out of the car, Wang Daqi asked the driver to turn around and not use it to pick them up, so he stretched out his hand and pushed the door in
