Chapter 203: Bargging
"Mr. Pandit, this is the information on that plane, please take a look at it first." With that, Tom handed Shakru a bag of information in his hand, which was either faxed or printed out from pictures on the Internet. Then he continued: "The performance and parameters of the aircraft are basically the same as the one you ordered, but the interior decoration is slightly different, and the difference is not very big, if you want to change, half a month is enough." ”
The reason why Tom is so enthusiastic about this business is because if he can promote this business, then his position in the company will definitely be able to rise to a higher level, it is said that Raytheon now values the Indian market, although this strange country has a lot of poor people, but there are also many rich people, so there is great potential for market development, so Raytheon intends to set up a new agency in India, but the specific person in charge has not yet been decided, and it is this position that Tom wants to strive for.
Sha Kru roughly glanced at the specific parameters of the plane, to be honest, he didn't understand these things, but the decoration in the cabin, he could see that it was very luxurious, almost all the things that the high-roller model could configure, all included, it gave people a nouveau riche feeling.
In fact, Shakru guessed correctly, the guy who originally ordered this private jet was an authentic nouveau riche, and the number of billionaires and destitute people who appeared on Wall Street every year was basically proportional, and every day someone got rich, and similarly, someone went bankrupt every day.
Although Shakru didn't care much about these interior decorations, he still frowned and said, "Oh, I don't like this style very much." ”
"Oh, Mr. Pandit, regarding the renovation of the interior, we can modify it according to your previous request, and it is all free of charge." When Tom heard Shakru's words, he hurriedly explained.
"In addition, there is the setting of this cabin door, I don't like it very much, Mr. Tom, you should know that the original drawings for your company, the cabin door should be a round arch and a little smaller, which is completely different from this size, I hope your company can remodel it according to my plan." After Shakru said this, Tom was dumbfounded, if there were those changes in the interior decoration of the cabin, it didn't matter, but to modify the cabin door, it involved the size of the aircraft.
You know, an aircraft must conform to many principles such as aerodynamics, and the shape of the aircraft that has been finalized is basically impossible to modify the shape and structure, because it involves the modification of the entire aircraft, and the amount of money required for this change is very large.
Tom thought that Shakru was in a hurry to sell the plane in stock, but now it seems unlikely, because the company will never agree to Shaklough's modification plan, and in that case, the plane sold to Shakru will hardly be profitable.
So he stubbornly said: "Mr. Pandit, I am afraid that we will not be able to fulfill this request of yours, and even if we do it reluctantly, we will need you to pay a fee for the change."
Before he could finish speaking, Shakru interrupted him and said, "Mr. Tom, the price we negotiated before is the price of a complete aircraft, so this additional charge is unreasonable, right?" After all, this plane is completely different from the style I need, and you ask me to buy such an unsatisfactory aircraft at a price that I can buy a satisfactory aircraft, do you think this is reasonable? ”
Shakru's words are very thorough, that is, if I want to buy this plane, it is okay, but the price cannot be according to the original price, otherwise it is unreasonable, you like to sell whoever you want.
"Mr. Pandit, if you are willing to buy this plane directly and make a one-time payment, we can give you a discount of 500,000 yuan, what do you think?" After hearing what Shakru said, Tom immediately gave a solution, of course, this was within his purview, after all, it would cost much more than half a million dollars to rebuild such an aircraft.
Unexpectedly, Shakru shook his head and said: "No, Mr. Tom, you are so insincere, you know, the cabin I told you before, what needs to be placed in the cabin is a sofa made of rosewood, you know, that kind of rosewood sofa, one is 500,000 US dollars, and I need four, that is, two million no." And now these leather sofas are too classless, plus I have saved you money for the transformation of the model, I think, a discount of three million dollars, is a reasonable price. "Actually, this is Shakru bullying Tom for not knowing what a rosewood sofa is, so he is talking nonsense, how can there be any rosewood sofa in this world!
"This, this, Mr. Pandit, I can't call the shots on this issue, I need to report it to the company first." Tom was sweating at the barrage of Shacklew's words, after all, he was just a technical engineer who wanted to turn into management, and his negotiation skills could not be compared to Shackru's serious businessman.
Shakru nodded as if he didn't care and said: "Of course, Mr. Tom, you can submit my opinion to your company, I don't mind waiting for eight months to have my own private jet, come on, let's eat first, the truffles in this place are very authentic"
As it turned out, Shaklu's bargaining strategy was completely correct, and good news soon came after Tom reported Shakru's request to headquarters. Since it was an aircraft ordered by someone else, it was indeed difficult to sell, and Shakru was the first to buy it, so Raytheon considered it and promised to give a discount of $2 million if Shakru did not change any part of the plane.
As a result, this ready-made high-roller plane, Shakru only needs to spend $9 million to take it down, so Shakru is very happy to sign a contract with Tom.
Originally, for the safety monitoring of this aircraft, in addition to the testing of the relevant departments of the United States, it also required the approval and signature of the customer on the spot, but because Shakru did not know anything about these processes and the performance of the aircraft, he asked Mukesh to help him, after all, his family has a private pilot. So the extremely bored Shakru could only wander around, but he didn't expect that this visit would actually go out for business. (To be continued.) )
