Chapter 300: Agents in Japan
After more than 10 days of negotiations, Zhang Junyan finally negotiated the issue of agency in Japan, and today in his office, he signed a contract with a Japanese company.
Zhang Song was also called by Zhang Junyan, he is the major shareholder of Lingquan Distillery, how can he not come at the important moment when Lingquan Distillery enters the Japanese market.
The contract stipulates that this Japanese agent, acting as an agent for the entire Japanese Lingquan liquor business, must sell more than one million bottles of various grades of Lingquan liquor every year, and the first order is not less than 200,000 bottles.
Regardless of the high, medium and low grades, the sales price is the same as that in China, and the price for this Japanese agent is 7.5% off per bottle, which is five percentage points more expensive than the provincial agents in China.
As for why Zhang Junyan talked to them for so many days, the main reason was that the minimum sales quantity and price could not be negotiated, Zhang Junyan knew that Lingquan wine was the only one for scorpion, and it was difficult for others to imitate it, so for these two problems, he has been biting to death.
After many rounds of negotiations, it was only when it came to the current process that the Japanese agents couldn't hold on, because they got the news that a number of trading companies in Japan had noticed Lingquan Liquor and were about to send someone to talk to Lingquan Distillery about the agency, so they knew that they would suffer a loss in terms of the minimum annual sales quantity and price, and finally signed this contract with Zhang Junyan and put the deposit into the account of Lingquan Distillery.
In the conference room of the Lingquan Distillery, Zhang Song sat next to Zhang Junyan and watched him sign the contract, and six or seven representatives of Japanese companies sat opposite them.
On the other side of Zhang Junyan sat his secretary Zhang Jian and the lawyer of Lingquan Distillery, Zhang Jian is Zhang Junyan's cousin, about the same age as Zhang Song, and his relationship with Zhang Junyan is similar to that of Zhang Song and Zhang Zihao, because it is his own family. Zhang Junyan trusted him more and asked him to be his secretary.
Zhang Song thought of another question, since Zhang Jian became Zhang Junyan's secretary, Zhang Song knew that Zhang Junyan's family had noticed the Lingquan Distillery, but now the Zhang family has not made any non-specific requests.
Although Zhang Song is good friends with Zhang Junyan and Zhang Junwu. I have also seen Zhang Junyan's grandfather and uncle, but he is not familiar with most of the Zhang family, and he doesn't know what kind of temperament they are.
However, even if someone in the Zhang family makes any non-divisive requests, Zhang Song will not agree, he is not a soft persimmon now, although the Zhang family is his backer, but he now has another backer, that is, Fang Weiyi, although his relationship with Fang Weiyi is not as close as the relationship with the Zhang family. But with his relationship with Old Man Fang, Fang Weiyi would definitely help him.
Even if the Fang family is the head snake of Songjiang City, but as the mayor of Songjiang, Fang Weiyi does not dare to offend Fang Weiyi.
Of course, these things that Zhang Song thought about were all precautions, because the Lingquan Distillery was too tempting, and it would inevitably arouse the covetousness of the Zhang family, so he naturally had to make some preparations, otherwise he would be like a fish on the board. Slaughtered.
When Zhang Song was thinking nonsense, applause rang out. Zhang Song came back to his senses and saw that Zhang Junyan and the Japanese representative had already signed the contract and were shaking hands, others were applauding, Zhang Song also clapped his hands twice and dealt with it casually.
The representative of the Japanese side is the owner of this trading company. After shaking hands with Zhang Junyan, he bowed to Zhang Junyan, and then muttered a lot of words in Japanese, with a translator brought by the Japanese next to him. Translate his words into Chinese.
"Mr. Nakajima said, thank you Manager Zhang for handing over the agent of Lingquan wine in Japan to their company, they will definitely live up to Manager Zhang's expectations and sell Lingquan wine well, please rest assured that Manager Zhang, if there is a chance, Mr. Nakajima hopes to invite Manager Zhang to visit Japan, he will definitely entertain Manager Zhang well, so that you can feel the enthusiasm of the Japanese people."
After the translator finished speaking, Zhang Junyan smiled and said: "Thank you, Mr. Nakajima, I will definitely go to Japan if I have the opportunity, and I will trouble Mr. Nakajima when the time comes." ”
Then the two sides exchanged a few more words, and the Japanese bowed to Zhang Song and their side, and then they took their leave.
After they left, Zhang Jian stood up and began to pack up the contract and the text, Zhang Song smiled at Zhang Junyan and said: "Brother Zhang, these little devils are quite polite, I have only seen them on TV before, but this is the first time I have seen them in reality, and it is quite interesting." ”
Zhang Junyan said: "The Japanese are like this, you will know when you see more in the future." ”
Zhang Junyan leaned back in his chair and said with a sigh of relief: "It's finally over, the first time I negotiated with the Japanese, if it wasn't for the sake of fighting for more interests, I saw the indomitable and groveling attitude of the Japanese, and I would have to let them talk about it, if it wasn't for the emergence of competitors on the Japanese side, this matter would have to be discussed for a while." ”
When Zhang Junyan spoke, he used two ifs, obviously this negotiation is not easy, Zhang Junyan hopes to try his best to enter the Japanese market, and at the same time hopes not to let the Japanese take advantage, and the Japanese want to get a preferential agency contract, this negotiation is not so easy.
Zhang Song said: "It's normal, Brother Zhang, you have done real estate, opened a fruit shop, naturally there is little need to negotiate, they Japanese are specialized in trade, often do this kind of thing, we naturally can't play with them, Brother Zhang, you'd better invite a few talents in this area, otherwise you will personally go out in the future, how tired you will be panic." ”
Zhang Junyan said: "That's right, the Japanese agent has just been determined, and there are companies in South Korea that want to act as our Lingquan wine, and I still have to manage the factory, so how can I have time to grind them every day." ”
"There are also people in South Korea who want to act as agents for Lingquan wine, which is good news, but Brother Zhang, the most important thing for you now is to set up a new distillery as much as possible, otherwise if you talk about agents from a few more countries, our output will not be able to keep up." Zhang Songdao.
Zhang Junyan took a sip of tea and said: "I have now found a construction company, and at the same time ordered six new filling lines, the new distillery will start to be built within this month, but even if it is built at the fastest speed, the new distillery will not be able to move in this year, my idea is to talk about the Korean agent first, with the current sales volume, the domestic sales are gradually increasing, and the sales of Japan and South Korea at the beginning will not be too much, and our current output will be able to meet the markets of the three countries." ”
Zhang Song said: "Brother Zhang, since you have thought about it, I don't care, the matter of Lingquan Distillery will be handed over to you, and I will provide you with enough Lingquan medicinal wine." (To be continued......)
