Chapter 107: Negotiation
Wen Xun remembered his sister Wen Rou, through the experience of being with that little girl since childhood, Wen Xun discovered early on that woman is an animal with a very strange mind. Sometimes it's ridiculous to have a lot of ideas, and sometimes it's terrible to have a lot of ideas. For women, many times they can only stay the same and treat them as if they don't see anything, so that they can slowly eliminate their thoughts......
The two of them went to eat together, and Lu Yuqing kept secretly looking at Wen Xun like a frightened deer, as if Wen Xun was a lion who could rush up and pounce on her at any time. And Wen Xun, this guy, has become blind, as if he doesn't know that he has become a lion.
After the two of them finished dinner so strangely, Wen Xun was still very concerned and considerate of Lu Yuqing as before. However, in the past two days, those flirting and ambiguous words from time to time have disappeared, and Wen Xun seems to have transformed into a legendary gentleman.
After returning to the hotel, Wen Xun didn't stay in Lu Yuqing's room, he returned to his room, and happened to see Lan Yang knocking on Erlang's leg to watch TV in the house. "You're back?" Wen Xun asked.
"Well, what? You don't want me back? Lan Yang asked rhetorically.
"I thought you'd spend the night outside." Wen Xun said.
"Make way for you and Lu Yuqing?" Lan Yang asked rhetorically.
"Eh, I said you, why are you so sharp and sharp now? I didn't find you like this before! Wen Xun changed the subject.
"I learned from you. I've noticed that after spending a lot of time with you, it seems like everyone has become sharper and sharper, do you have some magic? Lan Yang was decisively fooled, he followed Wen Xun's topic and said.
The next day, Wen Xun and Lan Yang received a call from Bertelsmann early in the morning. The foreigner on the phone invited Wen Xun and Lan Yang to his office to talk about the purchase of Fullmetal Alchemist. Hearing this, Wen Xun and Lan Yang prepared to go to Fuzhou Road. Even after Lu Yuqing heard this, he unexpectedly followed along.
After Wen Xun and his entourage came to the foreigner's office, they just sat down, and before they even served tea, they heard the foreigner say straight to the point: "Mr. Wen, Mr. Lan, this time our company's intention is to purchase 20,000 copies of "Fullmetal Alchemist" in the first phase. We want the price to be 4% off......"
Hearing this, Lan Yang immediately turned his head to see Wen Xun's reaction, and Lu Yuqing also subconsciously looked at Wen Xun. Unconsciously, Wen Xun has become the backbone of the entire team. I saw that at this time, Wen Xun touched his chin and said, "100,000 copies." 7% off......"
"Ha, that's a really funny joke." The foreigner said with a smile.
"You've read this book, and if you compare it to HP, you should know the market prospect of this book." Wen Xun said unmoved.
"HP is HP, Fullmetal Alchemist is Fullmetal Alchemist, the worldview and atmosphere are different, and China is not the United States. 30,000 copies, 4.5% off. If you purchase again, the price can be increased by 1%. The foreigner said a little loosely.
"50,000 copies, 6% off, the second purchase needs to be re-negotiated." Wen Xun said......
When the two of them negotiated like this, what did Lan Yang and Lu Yuqing see! They knew what these two men were talking about! The amount of purchase in one issue represents how much power Bertelsmann will use to promote this "Fullmetal Alchemist"! The purchase of 10,000 copies in the first phase, and the purchase of 100,000 copies in the first phase, is definitely not a heavyweight recommendation!
Moreover, the so-called purchase price is a few discounts, which means that when Bertelsmann took the book from Wen Xun and Lan Yang, the price of a single book was the list price! Lan Yang had calculated for Wen Xun before, and after he went to run in person, he pressed the printing cost at 20% of the price of a book, and then sold it to Xinhua Bookstore at a price of 6 percent, with a 4 percent discount on the profit, and Lan Yang and Wen Xun shared it equally.
The 4% off that the foreigner said at the beginning means that he directly uses the 4% off book with the price tag, and leaves it to Wen Xun and Lan Yang, and there is only 2% of the profit! However, because Wen Xun alone carried all the expenses and income this time, these two percent of the profits can fall into Wen Xun's hands.
But Wen Xun was so tired for a long time, and he went to pay the printing cost by himself, just to make a profit of 20%? Then he might as well take it directly with Lan Yang!
After that, Wen Xun and the foreigner disputed that if the first phase of the purchase of "Steel Refining" was a hot seller, then the price of the second and third purchases. At what rate? Is it a maximum increase of 10% on the basis of 4.5% discount? Or according to what Wen Xun said, start over and negotiate again?
Lan Yang and Lu Yuqing only felt that the negotiations they had experienced before were all Chinese-style, and they all contained the murderous machine in the "Huiren Kidney Treasure" mode of politeness, greetings, hello, everyone. Today, they can be regarded as seeing the clear knife and the gun, you have to fight for me!
Wen Xun and the foreigner were still negotiating, Lu Yuqing looked at Wen Xun at this time, and suddenly realized that Wen Xun seemed to be very professional and handsome at this time! He is so focused, so meticulous, he looks like a man who can be absolutely reliable!
That is, if he is a little younger, if he grows his beard, with his current momentum, others will think that he is a thirty-year-old man with a baby face when he sees him, right?
Thinking about it, she imagined that Wen Xun was now 30 years old in the eyes of others, and Lu Yuqing felt that Wen Xun's image in her heart was different, as if the obstacles that prevented them from being together had slowly disappeared...... When Lu Yuqing, who was immersed in fantasy emotions, came to her senses, she was surprised to find that Wen Xun had actually signed a contract with a foreigner! The two also opened champagne to celebrate!
What's going on? Lu Yuqing finally waited until Wen Xun was about to go out, and then she squeezed around Wen Xun and asked secretly, "What was the final agreement?" ”
"Huh?" Wen Xun turned his head and looked at Lu Yuqing strangely, he didn't say anything, just looked Lu Yuqing up and down, left and right, and only when Lu Yuqing was about to blow up his hair, he said, "You were captured by aliens just now?" Wasn't it just by your side that I negotiated with him? ”
"Why are you so annoying? Isn't it enough for you to answer your questions? It's! Lu Yuqing, who was close to the fried hair, glared at Wen Xun and said.
"Want to know? Help me wash my coat for that day and I'll tell you. Wen Xun obviously saw that Lu Yuqing's condition had improved, so he took advantage of the victory to pursue. Although he didn't understand why Lu Yuqing suddenly became willing to take care of himself and not hide from himself, but as a beast or a hunter's instinct, that is, when he saw the other party retreating, he did not hesitate to attack!
"Beautiful you!" Although Lu Yuqing didn't have any aversion to helping Wen Xun wash clothes, she just couldn't stand the feeling of Wen Xun pressing herself, so she talked to Wen Xun. "I asked Lan Yang to ......"
"Brother Lan is now my employee, this time I am wholly owned, and his labor fees are all paid by me, guess who he listens to?" Wen Xun said without showing weakness.
"I just fell asleep and didn't hear anything...... You two continue to talk, I'll go first......" Lan Yang, whose shoulders were taller than his head, found out very shrewdly at this time that he seemed to be pulled into the battlefield, so he immediately pretended to be stupid and ran away!
