Chapter 588: Rahal Is Here (Asking for Tickets)

After a week, Lahal temporarily suspended the negotiations with the magic capital Dachangxing, it seems that in the first round of negotiations, there are great differences between the two sides, otherwise Lahal would not accept Shi Xitong's invitation to come to the capital as a guest.

This is very good news for Shi Lei, the greater the differences between the two sides, the happier he is, it is best for the two sides to negotiate directly, and Lahal takes the initiative to find a new agency.

But Shi Lei knows that this can only be a luxury, and the magic capital Dah Chong Hong is also an old agency company, especially in the domestic automobile agency industry, it is the leading boss, how could he make such a low-level mistake. Even if the terms of the two sides are not agreed, there will inevitably be room for negotiation.

Rahal has not been in a good mood for the past two days, and as a negotiator for Tata Motors, he thought it would be an easy trip.

Isn't it the agent of China ~ China, the magic capital Dah Chong Hong has acted as an agent for so many big brands of cars, with perfect channels and experience, the two sides don't even have to be entangled in the details, just talk about the main conditions, such as the proportion of agency fees, the rights and responsibilities of both parties and so on.

But when I came to China~, I realized that the people here are not so easy to deal with. First of all, the other party actually likes to negotiate at the dinner table, and several times they have negotiated, they have deliberately delayed time, and then pulled down the dinner table, drank first, and then started negotiations with you when you are slightly drunk.

Lahore believes that Dah Chong Hong's approach is clearly to take advantage of their lack of soberness to finalize some contract terms and even directly sign the contract, which is a fundamental violation of basic integrity.

So after he hinted a few times not to do this, the other party did not change, and the gap between the two sides in the proportion of agency fees was too large, and in a fit of anger, Rahal suspended the negotiation and waited for the other party to figure it out. Naturally, I will contact him.

Unexpectedly, he had just taken a day off when he received a call from Shi Xitong, a representative of another shareholder of Tata Motors, and he and Shi Xitong could only be said to have met, not friends. But in China~ China, he also had no friends, so Shi Xitong invited him to come over as a guest. For him, who is bored, it is like sending charcoal in the snow.

When he came to the capital, he could not only relax his mood a little, but also put pressure on the magic capital Dachangxing, indicating that he was not in a hurry to find an agency.

Sure enough, when he had just arrived at the Modu Airport, he received a call from Wu Tianlin, vice president of Dah Chong Bank. asked them to go back and continue the discussion, but he refused.

You can talk about it if you want, what do you think of me as Tata Motors? So he not only took away a few entourage, but also strictly ordered other staff who stayed in the magic capital, when he was not in the magic capital, no one was allowed to contact the people of the magic capital Dachangxing, and the violators were expelled!

In India, the concept of class hierarchy is very strict. Even more than the island countries and South Korea, basically the leader of the decision. They never dare to refute, the leader said that they want to fire you, then you must be wrong.

Let's just say that the Tata Group once laid off tens of thousands of employees in a year, but there was no crowd to make trouble, and everyone seemed to accept it, even after being laid off. They have no job, no income, and they take it for granted.

On this point, Shi Lei admires the Tata Group very much, which country company has large-scale layoffs. Won't cause employee dissatisfaction? Large companies, including the island nation of Toyota, also caused a lot of demonstrations when they laid off employees. Of course, according to them, they laid off temporary workers.

Knowing that Lahal was coming over today, Shi Lei followed Shi Xitong to the airport to greet him. It's not a greeting between customers, it's etiquette between friends.

As the flight arrived, a number of people dressed in a distinctly Indian style slowly walked towards the exit, including a man in his forties, wearing gold-rimmed glasses and meticulously combed hair. Shi Lei judged that this person was Lahal, and of course, there was the most important basis, that is, everyone else was holding something in their hands, but he was empty-handed.

"Dear Rahal, long time no see." Shi Xitong folded his hands, bowed slightly, and greeted the other party in English.

"What a heap. Stone, long time no see. ”

After Lahal also bowed, according to the Chinese ~ national etiquette, he shook Shi Xitong's hand again. To Shi Lei's surprise, when this Rahal just said that he hadn't seen him for a long time, he used Chinese, and he knew Chinese?

Shi Xitong was also stunned for a moment, in fact, he didn't know that Lahal knew Chinese, remembering the last time they met, it was a few years ago, when Shi Xitong had just become the president of Taishi International Asia Pacific North Branch, and Lahore didn't seem to know Chinese.

"Lahore, did you learn Chinese?" Shi Xitong asked in Chinese with a straight and round tone.

"I hired a Chinese teacher since last year and learned a little bit." Rahal said slowly, only then did he hear that he was not very fluent in Chinese, and many of his pronunciations were inaccurate.

"Rahal, this is my son, his full name is Shi Lei, who works in the Wufang Group." Shi Xitong introduced.

Shi Lei clasped his hands together and bowed: "What a heap." ”

"Hahaha, hello, that's what I said." Rahar laughed heartily, and he was very useful to have someone to greet him in his native dialect in a foreign country.

"Rahal, let's stop greeting here, get in the car, let's talk while eating, the food on the plane is not very tasty, right?" Shi Xitong said with a smile.

Rahal made a look you know me: "It's really not delicious, the taste is too light." ”

"Rahal, I know you like spicy food, I booked a restaurant with a very spicy taste, but I don't know if you can accept it." Shi Xitong said deliberately.

"No problem, I like spicy food." Rahal has no taste in his mouth these days, but it makes him uncomfortable, and he desperately needs a spicy taste to stimulate his taste buds.

Rahal didn't bring his wife on this trip, so Shi Xitong and Shi Lei didn't bring his wife either. If Rahar brought his wife, then Ruan Zhirou and Fang Xuan would have to come forward, which was their basic social etiquette.

Shi Lei is very glad that Lahal does not have the habit of many domestic corporate executives, and when he goes abroad for business, he also has to take the opportunity to take his wife and children to play. Fang Xuan has a big belly now, he doesn't want her to participate in this kind of occasion, there are many people, not to mention, she is still tired.

When they came to the parking lot, Rahal's eyes lit up when they saw that the car that came to pick them up turned out to be a Land Rover. This Shi Xi has a heart, but if he follows his mind so much, I'm afraid it's not just about reminiscing, right?

Shi Lei personally acted as a driver and drove for Lahal and Shi Xitong, which made Lahal even more satisfied. Shi Xitong actually asked his son to drive for us, this etiquette is too heavy.

Shi Xitong and Rahal talked in English in the back, and Shi Lei only listened to a half-clawed, no way, although he is working hard to learn English now, but the time is too short, and recently he is even more concerned about Fang Xuan, who is pregnant, every day, and did not invite the teacher to come over.

drove all the way to the Hunan restaurant that was ordered, Shi Lei got out of the car and opened the door.

Shi Lei had already arranged it here, and when he saw the Land Rover parked at the door, someone came out to greet them and led them into the box.

This is a large box, dozens of square meters, with a large round table in the middle, which can seat more than a dozen people and entertain Lahore and his party.

When ordering, Shi Lei also paid special attention to the fact that there must be no beef, the cow is a fetish in India, and even the car on the road has to make way for the cow, if a beef appears on the table, it will be completely finished today.

Fortunately, although Lahore believes in Buddhism, Buddhism in India eats vegetarian food on fasting days every month, and still eats meat at other times, otherwise Shi Lei really doesn't know how to order, is it a table of chili peppers?

The choice of wine is whisky, which is more suitable for the taste of Indians, and it is unconventional in India, which is equivalent to the impression of XO in the hearts of the Chinese people.

Shi Lei's left hand was always under the table and did not pick it up. In India, the right hand represents cleanliness and the left hand represents filth. For example, they eat with their right hand and wipe their buttocks with their left hand.

The waiters who came to help pour the wine were told that behind the back of their left hand, they could only use their right hand to pour the wine bottle with one hand, and when serving food, they could only use their right hand, and they should never use their left hand.

Of course, with such a demanding requirement, Shi Lei also promised to tip each waiter a lot of money, and those waiters would of course abide by it, not to respect other people's etiquette, but purely for the sake of tipping.

When toasting, Shi Lei also raised his glass with only his right hand, which made Lahal feel more comfortable. He also learned some Chinese~Chinese culture, and knew that in Chinese~, both hands only showed respect when toasting, which was Shi Lei's deliberate avoidance of using his left hand.

If you are courteous to others, you will have something to ask for!

If Shi Xitong is just an ordinary hospitality, just like an old friend chatting, Lahal only needs to entertain Shi Xitong once when Shi Xitong goes to India.

But Shi Xitong called his son and respected their Indian etiquette everywhere, which made him a little confused, could it be that Taishi International had any thoughts about Tata Motors?

"Xiao Shi, I heard your father mention it just now, what are you doing?" Rahal finally asked what Shi Lei had been waiting for almost an hour.

"I am the manager of Wufang Group, which is an agency company, and it is currently the first in China~China, and it will be the first in the future." Shi Lei said quickly.

A smile tugged at the corner of Rahal's mouth, it turned out that he was waiting for him here.

"So Wufang Group should also have the business of acting as an agent for vehicle sales?"

"Of course, we not only have this business, but we are also doing well."

"How does it compare to the Demon Capital Dachangxing?" Rahal continued.

Shi Lei smiled: "For the time being, Da Chong Hong is ahead of us in this aspect. However, the focus of our company's next step is to invest a huge amount of money in vehicle agency, establish channels, and ensure that customers hand over our products and can sell them to every corner of China ~ China. ”

Hearing Shi Lei admit frankly that he was not as good as Dachang Hong, this made Lahal have a better impression of Shi Lei: "I know, I want to talk to you in the evening." (To be continued......)
