Chapter 039: Cross-border Promotion
This Williams and his company, DNK, are really a rare and precious customer of Blue Feather's LSET company, especially the god of wealth in their Eastern Trade Department.
At the beginning of the first contract, which was only half a year away, DNK invited LSET to sign a large talc export order with a total offshore amount of 8 million US dollars. In addition, a letter of credit is opened at the same time as the contract is signed, and the business of confirming specifications and inspecting the place of origin can be carried out before the shipment, which is quite relaxed.
This made Lan Yu's heart feel happy. In the first two quarters, the task of the whole year has been exceeded. And then came the plan for the next year's mission, which was to be doubled. This means that the pre-work for next year's order will have to start now.
DNK has branches in Southeast Asian countries, so Williams also took the initiative to ask Ying to propose that they can act as an agent for LSET in country K, hold export product fairs, and invite existing customers of DNK in Southeast Asian countries to participate in the meeting for half a month.
It is impossible to organize an international conference of this scale without $1.8 million. Lan Yu really couldn't understand the source and origin of this part of the funds.
So, I went to Mr. Tao for advice:
"Mr. Tao, Williams, don't they settle accounts for their company's business?" She asked.
"What's wrong?"
Mr. Tao seemed to know what I was going to ask, but he still sold the pass, so he had to let her ask. Lan Yu was anxious to know the inside story, and she asked:
"Look at them, the cost of inspection and export are borne by themselves, not to mention, this high-level international conference, the entire cost has to cost millions of dollars, they don't make a fool, do these two orders have so much profit?"
Mr. Tao shook his fat head like a wave drum, and said with a smile:
"Hehe, hehe, you only know one thing, you don't know the other."
Then, he grabbed the calculator on his desk and crackled it:
"In the first contract, they had their own price difference of $150 per cubic meter, and a total of 15,000 cubic meters were shipped in a year, and the gross profit was $2.25 million." He shook the calculator in front of Lan Yu, showed her the astonishing number on it, and then began to calculate again:
"The second contract has a price difference of $20 per tonne, a total of 150,000 tons of shipments, and a gross profit of $3 million. The gross profit of these two orders is 5.25 million US dollars, and even if 1 million US dollars is deducted as management expenses, the net profit is still 3.25 million US dollars. After he finished counting these numbers, he tilted his head and looked at Lan Yu, very proud.
"Wow, Mr. Tao, then they will take out another 1.8 million yuan for us to carry out the fair, and there will be at least 2.25 million US dollars in net profits!"
"No, no. Hehe, hehehe. Mr. Tao explained everything clearly, and said:
"After a while, the relevant personnel will have a meeting, meet with Williams and them, and make the international conference schedule clear, and this advantage will not be taken advantage of."
Mr. Tao was just about to turn around and leave, but Lan Yu still stopped him and asked:
"Alas, what, Mr. Tao, then why do we sell these goods at such a low price?" When Mr. Tao heard her ask him this, he didn't react, blinked his eyes and thought for a while, before he suddenly realized:
"Hey! You are confused to ask me, this price is the price of the export of mineral products in the mainland, and the price will be slightly different from different origins, but the difference is not big. Every quarter, the reference price of the domestic market of the product will be announced, if it is much higher than these reference prices, then your business will not be done. ”
"Oh, that's right."
"What, still have questions?"
"Oh, no."
"No, hurry up and greet the meeting, maybe the merchants have already arrived."
Lan Yu followed Mr. Tao into the conference room, and saw Williams talking about something in the vernacular, to Li Dong, the foreign affairs officer who had already arrived at the meeting, which caused everyone to laugh from time to time, and it was lively here.
Williams is the most important businessman in the department, and he is of Chinese descent, and he communicates easily with the employees, and the beautiful lady Yuliana is often around, so they are very popular with the company's personnel. The employees of their DNK also regard LSET as their home.
Seeing that Mr. Cao approached, everyone immediately put away their smiles, returned to their positions, and prepared for a meeting.
Mr. Tao made a start:
"Come on, let's start chatting about this, our LSET and DNK cooperation. We have carte blanche to entrust Mr. Williams with the task of hosting an export trade fair in country K, and I would like to ask him to tell us about it. ”
Williams is a little darker and thinner than a few months ago, her dress is not as elaborate as she was at the beginning, and she speaks Mandarin a little better:
"Well, what about this meeting, to put it simply, your company needs to do three things, the first is the export business. Prepare your export products sufficiently, the quality must be passed, the supply of goods must be sufficient, and the delivery service must also catch up with the international level; Second, the reception of the exhibition hall. It is necessary to be able to sign orders at any time; Third, we must have a sense of time. It is to run strictly according to the pre-confirmed meeting schedule. All other services are taken care of by DNK. ”
Williams really made it clear that this is the first time that LSET, or more precisely, the Ministry of Eastern Trade has gone abroad, and for the first time to promote to the outside world that this long-dormant Eastern country is now going to do business with the world.
The first of this beginning made Lan Yu very excited. Although everyone listened very carefully, it still made Mr. Tao a little uneasy, and he instructed:
"You still have a week to prepare, two days before departure, you must carefully check again, and think of countermeasures in advance for all kinds of unfavorable factors that may occur."
Williams laughs and explains:
"We're in the way, you can meet again on the details of the business."
"Okay, then our two companies are waiting for a happy cooperation." Mr. Tao stretched out his hand and shook Williams tightly, and the two of them laughed heartily
On the weekend after the National Day, the golden autumn was crisp, and Lan Yu and the others were equipped with all the export products, all in suits and leather shoes, and boarded an international flight for the first time. They are excited and embark on a new journey.
When the plane arrived over country K, it was already dark. However, looking down at the ground from the window of the plane, there is an endless, desirable colorful world, obviously brightly lit, this landscape is so beautiful!
Country K is one of the four Asian tigers.
I have long heard that this country is already economically developed, and it has advanced more than 20 years compared to the mainland. It's really better to see than to hear, after getting off the plane, the grandeur of the airport in front of them can no longer be compared with the airport where the plane they boarded just left the ground.
Everything here, they are dazzled to watch.
Lan Yu thought to himself, there is such a high-end, clean and tidy public building in this world, and there are almost no waiters here, but everywhere is still so orderly.
