Chapter 135: The Peak Turns Around

The first round of negotiations ended unhappily. When Philip and the others returned to the guest house, the Royal Romanian Air Force did not send a high-ranking person, let alone invite the Dragon Soul Ordnance Consortium negotiation team to lunch, it seems that the Romanian side still wants to suppress the price of the aircraft by trying to get away with it.

Back at the guest house, the Royal Romanian Air Force arranged only a relatively simple lunch. Philip said with a smile while eating the food that was not very tasty: "It seems that the Romanian side has settled on us, and this lunch is really simple enough." ”

Sophia frowned and said, "Really, it seems that we are not taken seriously!" In that case, we can't make concessions, and I don't believe that without Romania, our planes won't be sold. ”

Philip smiled: "Yes, we just have to sell at a high price, otherwise how can we highlight our technical advantages?" I believe that the Romanian has seen our determination and if Manecozi is not a fool, he will definitely show up tomorrow and agree to our offer. So, we just need to do a little bit more price reduction, so that the Royal Romanian Air Force and Manecozi have a step down, and then this negotiation will be successful. ”

Messerschmidt was surprised: "Oh, Philip, are you so sure? Looking at the situation today, I thought that the Romanian side would not accept our price anyway! ”

Philip half-jokingly said, "Okay, so how about we make a bet?" I'm betting we'll be able to sign this contract tomorrow for $100,000 and $25,000 or more, the bet is yours! ”

Sophia hurriedly applauded: "Okay! Uncle Wiley, take a bet with Mr. Philip and see who has the right eye. ”

Messerschmidt glared at Sophia and said, "Sophia, you just want to see your uncle's jokes!" Well, I'll do what you want! Philip, I'll bet with you, the bet is that whoever loses will invite the other party to a big meal, how about it? ”

Philip laughed and said, "Good! I think Dr. Wiley is ready for this meal. ”

Sophia hurriedly said coquettishly: "No, how can you just invite someone, you have to invite a few of us together!" Delot, are you right? ”

Seeing Sophia say this, Delott and a few others hurriedly responded.

Messerschmidt suddenly said: "Also, I see that I am old and confused, and I have forgotten about you!" Okay, that's it, whoever loses will invite everyone to a big meal! ”

Sophia hurriedly began to applaud and celebrate, because no matter who won or lost, they had all eaten the feast.

As expected, at half past nine the next morning, the man in charge of picking up Philip and them was replaced by Colonel Carmen.

As soon as Colonel Carmen saw Philip, he smiled and said politely: "A few distinguished guests, I'm really sorry, we have neglected your delegation in the past two days, and today General Manekozi will personally come to the venue to participate in the negotiations between the two sides, so please come with me now!" ”

Philip nodded and said, "Okay, I guess General Manekozy is also in a hurry." ”

Colonel Carmen smiled and said, "Of course, General Manekozy is also looking forward to meeting with Mr. Philip and Mr. Messerschmidt again!" ”

After a while, everyone was back in the small conference room. As soon as he entered, Philip found Manecozzi sitting there with the men from yesterday waiting anxiously.

Seeing that Philip and they had finally arrived, Manecozi hurriedly got up to greet a few people, and said enthusiastically: "Oh, I was really embarrassed yesterday, and I couldn't get away for a while, so today I want to make special compensatory payments to a few people, and when we sign the contract, I will arrange a grand dinner to invite a few people to feel the enthusiasm of our Royal Romanian Air Force." ”

Philip smiled and said: "General Manecozy is too polite, let's get the contract done first!" ”

Manekozi hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, yes! A few guests are invited to sit down, and we will have an in-depth exchange on the price issue, hoping to have a price that is acceptable to both parties. ”

After the representatives of both sides were seated, Manecozi said: "Major General Abram has already reported to me on yesterday's negotiations. Although the differences between the two sides are still relatively large, we can still discuss, right? So we also had a meeting yesterday, carefully studied your quotation, as well as the cost details you provided, and also analyzed the amount of cost savings after we use your aircraft, indeed, as Mr. Philip said, we may have invested a lot at the beginning, but in general, we can still save a lot of costs. So we decided to agree with your offer after research, but we hope that on the basis of this price, you can provide us with a full training service for free, as well as a spare propeller and turbocharger for each aircraft, so there should be no problem, right? ”

Hearing Manekozzi say this, Messerschmidt couldn't help but be surprised, this Philip's prediction was too accurate, and now the other party not only agreed to the initial offer of the dragon soul, but also put forward the additional conditions are not excessive, after all, a spare propeller and turbocharger are not worth much.

Philip laughed and said: "General Manecozy is really a smart man, and he can see at once that with the aircraft we provide, you will definitely only make money and not lose money!" You must know that you are the first customer to use the world's most advanced business transport aircraft and primary training aircraft, this price is definitely the lowest, and even after our production capacity expands, the price of this business transport aircraft will have to be increased, even so, there will be many airlines competing to buy, my prediction has always been more accurate. I agreed to the additional conditions you proposed, and it was not difficult for us. ”

Manecozi also laughed and said, "Mr. Philip is such a cheerful man! Then I wish us a happy cooperation. However, although the price has been determined, we still have to negotiate some other terms of the contract one by one, and of course these terms should not be too problematic. What do you think? ”

Philip nodded, "Of course." As long as the terms of the contract are determined, both parties must strictly implement them, otherwise they should bear the corresponding responsibilities. Let's discuss the delivery schedule and quantity first, I don't know what requirements you have for these two points? ”

Manecozi smiled: "Actually, Mr. Philip doesn't have to worry at all, we will leave you plenty of time, of course, we can't eat such a large order as hundreds of planes at once, the delivery of aircraft is carried out in batches, and we hope that this batch of aircraft can be delivered within three years, and the first batch of aircraft will be delivered no later than one year!" After deliveries begin, we hope to receive 5 commercial transport aircraft and 12 junior trainer aircraft each month. That shouldn't be a problem, right? ”
