Chapter 24 Foreign Friends
Zhao Hongbing called Mr. Lin and explained the situation.
Mr. Lin was very happy to hear it, Zhao Hongbing and the hardware factory negotiated the price far beyond expectations, this price is not only lower than the market price of two percent, more importantly, the price is soaring now, hardware and building materials are in an upward trend, no one knows how much it will rise in the future, can lock in the cost in advance, this is a good thing that can not be sought.
However, Lin is always a businessman, in addition to the pursuit of profits, but also to consider risks, Mr. Lin asked: "Mr. Zhao, is the two-year contract a bit long?" If there is any change in the market in the future, or the quality of the hardware factory will decline in the future, our company may be kidnapped by the contract. ”
Zhao Hongbing said: "Mr. Lin is very thoughtful, but I have consulted with the commercial arbitration tribunal and asked a professional lawyer to formulate strict contract terms to limit the other party's long-term rights and ensure that it is beneficial to my party." Mr. Lin assured, according to the current domestic production situation, the market should always be in a situation of less supply than demand within two years, and the two-year contract is very beneficial to us, even if the market is different, we will trigger some content in the contract terms, automatically suspend the contract, and protect our interests. ”
Mr. Lin smiled: "Mr. Zhao is cautious, this is my overthinking." "I can hear that Mr. Lin is very happy, so I can rest assured that you will do something.
Zhao Hongbing added: "Unlike state-owned enterprises and private enterprises, they sometimes do not pay much attention to profits, but attach more importance to the harmonious cooperation between the two sides, as long as they have a good relationship with the leaders of the other side, some problems can be handled flexibly." ”
Mr. Lin laughed and said: "I know that you gave the other party a house to the factory director, and Pengfei has already told me." But I don't know the details yet, Mr. Zhao said. ”
Zhao Hongbing said: "I asked the big country to come forward and sign a house purchase agreement with the wife of the director of the factory, and the contract clearly stated that a deposit of 30,000 yuan should be paid and the balance should be paid within half a month. If the purchaser breaches the contract and abandons the purchase, double the liquidated damages will be compensated. ”
Mr. Lin asked, "And then?" ”
Zhao Hongbing said: "Then it will naturally be in default." The big country called and said that it was impossible to buy a house, and the deposit was paid to the other party, hoping that the matter of double liquidated damages would not be pursued. Director Hou's wife got cheap, and she was thanked by the big country for not pursuing the follow-up liquidated damages. ”
Mr. Lin praised: "The house is still there, and I get 30,000 yuan for nothing, and it is completely legal income." The two directors of this Qian Hou must have received it very steadily, and Mr. Zhao's method is not bad. ”
Zhao Hongbing smiled: "This is just an expedient measure, there is not much to boast about." To do business, you still have to learn from Lin and take the majestic road. ”
Mr. Lin haha: "Mr. Zhao is too modest, if I go out, I will definitely not be as beautiful as you, and gift-giving is also a university question." ”
Zhao Hongbing said: "Mr. Lin, how about your fundraising, according to the contract, we need to pay five million in advance, plus a large number of hoarding goods before the end of the year, at least 10 million." ”
Mr. Lin said: "No problem, I have already talked to a few bigwigs, and they all promised to lend me money, and when you come back, the money will be almost enough." ”
Zhao Hongbing said happily: "Lin is always handsome, strategizing, and winning thousands of miles away. If you have no objection to this contract, I will discuss it with Mr. Liu again and sign it? ”
Mr. Lin said heroically: "Sign!" Our first tough battle in Pengcheng started with this contract. ”
After talking to Mr. Lin on the phone, Zhao Hongbing called Mr. Liu again to explain the situation, Mr. Liu had no opinion, and heard that Zhao Hongbing and Mr. Lin both agreed, and had no other opinions, and agreed to sign.
However, Mr. Liu is not a dry meal, he brought Zhao Hongbing a good news, he contacted a former comrade-in-arms, who also opened a company in Shenzhen, Mr. Liu has persuaded this comrade-in-arms to agree to lend a sum of money to Pengcheng, about two or three million.
Zhao Hongbing was very excited when he heard it, now they urgently need money, naturally the more money, the better, as long as the money can be in place, seize this rare opportunity, Pengcheng Company's strength can directly turn to a big level.
Zhao Hongbing asked a few more words about the company, Mr. Liu gave him a general explanation, just hung up the phone, heard a knock on the door, Zhao Hongbing said: "Please come in." ”
Pushing the door in, the two people who came in, neither a big country nor Liu Pengfei, turned out to be John and his wife, which surprised Zhao Hongbing.
As soon as Britney saw Zhao Hongbing, her eyes were overflowing with joy, and she exaggerated: "Oh, God, I finally found you, Angel Zhao." ”
John also said gratefully: "Zhao, my benefactor, thank you, we really don't know what to do without you that day." ”
Zhao Hongbing was surprised: "How did you find me?" ”
Britney said, "We originally wanted to go to the deep market to find you again." Yesterday we stayed at the Hilton Hotel, and John stumbled upon a figure of you, but chased him out of the hotel and didn't find it. It wasn't until today that we asked the front desk to get your room number from there. ”
Zhao Hongbing smiled: "It's just a small favor, you don't have to take it to heart." ”
John said seriously: "No, no, you saved my life, and I am sure that if you hadn't appeared in time that day, I would have died on the street." You not only helped me, but also paid for my medical expenses, and we must find you and repay you doubly. ”
Zhao Hongbing felt the sincerity of this middle-aged man and said politely: "We Chinese like to help others, and helping others ourselves are happy, so we don't need you to repay." ”
Britney said: "We changed some yuan, but John and the child still want to play in Haicheng, and it is estimated that they will have to go to Shenzhen to repay your money, which is really embarrassing." ”
Zhao Hongbing waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, you are already my friends, it's too polite to say this." ”
John was a straight-tempered person, and seeing that Zhao Hongbing was not in a hurry, he stopped mentioning the matter and asked, "Zhao, is your work done?" ”
Zhao Hongbing said: "No, but it has reached the final stage, and only a formal contract is signed." "I talked about the industry I am currently engaged in.
John said, "Zhao, you are a very bold young business leader at first glance, we are very interested in your Chinese business, can you take us to open our eyes?" ”
Zhao Hongbing smiled: "Of course there is no problem, but the formal signing of the contract is a relatively private matter, and you can't be present." Well, I'll take you to the factory tomorrow morning to meet my partners, and in the afternoon you're free, and I'm going to sign a contract. ”
John said happily: "Okay, Zhao, you are really a friendly friend, but it's a pity that you are not from Haicheng, otherwise we would have invited you to be our tour guide." ”
Zhao Hongbing smiled and didn't answer, this John is completely a straight gut, what do you have to say, how can he be the other party's tour guide for no reason with his identity, of course, John is not arrogant, otherwise he would be angry.
Britney is much more flexible than her husband, and said with a smile: "Zhao is a busy person, and he is already grateful for taking us around the factory, how can he ask for too much?" ”
John was annoyed, "I went too far, Zhao, I'm sorry." ”
Zhao Hongbing didn't care, and said with a smile: "Wait until you go to the Shenzhen Market, and I'll introduce you to the fun places in the Shenzhen Market when the time comes." ”
The next morning, Zhao Hongbing first called Director Hou, and after obtaining the consent of the other party, he took two large and one small foreigner to the hardware factory.
On the phone, Zhao Hongbing only said that John was his business partner, but Director Hou made a big move and personally led a team to greet him outside the factory.
When John's family got out of the car, a neatly dressed team of workers shouted in unison: "Welcome foreign friends to visit Haicheng Hardware Stamping Factory." ”
John's family was taken aback, and waited for Zhao Hongbing to translate before laughing, and John responded loudly: "Thank you, we are very happy to come to your factory." ”
Director Hou stepped forward with a woman in overalls and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhao, why don't you say hello in advance when you invite foreign guests over?" My brother was in a hurry, and finally found a translator, so let her serve foreign friends. ”
Zhao Hongbing looked up and was stunned, this girl in overalls was looking at herself with a smile, with a faint tenderness in her eyes, who else was Lu Xiaoya?
Zhao Hongbing smiled: "Xiaoya, why are you?" ”
