Chapter 076: Big Dogs Have Money
The Henley Hotel Hong Kong.
It's not a very high ranking hotel in Hong Kong, but it's a good hotel, located near Central, and when Lin Yat and Ho Kai Ming arrived, it was completely dark.
Come to the front desk.
"Miss, help me check Mr. Salman Moussa's room number."
The front desk lady looked at Lin Yi.
"Sorry sir, in order to protect the privacy of our customers, we cannot randomly check the guest's room number." The front desk lady said.
"I have a phone number, XXXXXX, is it your hotel number?" Lin Yi asked again.
"Yes sir, this is one of the external numbers of our hotel."
"Mr. Salman Moussa used this number to contact me and asked me to come over, but I forgot to ask for the room number, and it would be rude to call now, can you tell me his room number?"
Lin Yi said, suddenly there was an extra hundred Hong Kong dollars in his hand, and quietly stuffed it into the palm of the front desk, the front desk lady grabbed the banknote in the palm of her hand, bowed her head and said in a non-existent voice:
“1625”。
Lin Yi smiled,
"Thank you."
The front desk lady looked up and smiled back at Lin Yi.
When I came to the sixth floor, I knocked on the door of room 1625, and after a short time, the door opened, and it was a person who looked to be about thirty years old, with slightly dark skin and a typical Middle Eastern face.
"Who are you?"
"Is this Mr. Moussa please?" Lin Yi asked in standard English.
"It's me."
Moussa's eyes remained puzzled.
"That's right, I'm the business manager of Yishida Trading Company, we made a special trip to visit Mr. Moussa, I know that you are going to order a batch of tools, and our company also does this business, I would like to ask if you need it?" Lin Yidao.
Mousa was a little surprised and said, "I don't seem to have sent a purchase notice to your company, how do you know?" ”
"I'll tell you the truth, I overheard the news, but we have the products you need, I hope you can take a look, at least there can be one more comparison, right?" Lin Yidao.
Mosa nodded,
"Come in and talk."
Flash open the door and let Lin Yi and He Qiming enter the house, this is the suite, and the three of them sat down in the living room.
"Do you have a catalog and samples?" Moussa asked.
"Yes, we've brought them all."
Lin Yi handed over a catalogue list, He Qiming spread out the sample, and the general manager of the hall is now the follower of Lin Yi, the business manager.
Moussa takes a look at the catalog.
After picking up the sample of tools on the table and looking at them carefully, after a while, Moussa put down the tools in his hand and pouted: "To be honest, your tools are very strong, but a little rough, which country is this product?" ”
"China."
Musa was stunned.
"The products we usually purchase are mainly Japanese, American, and German goods, and the quality is also beautiful, and the price is quite right, I don't see a reason to order your products."
"I have a price list here, Mr. Moussa can look at it." Lin Yi said and took out a price list provided by a domestic tool factory, which Lin Yi had converted into US dollars.
Mu Sa picked it up and looked at it, his face was slightly better, Lin Yi's offer was much cheaper than the offer of the trading company he had cooperated with before, and it was definitely an attractive price.
Moses thought for a moment,
"This, I need to ask for instructions, after all, we have not purchased Chinese products before, and I need to communicate with the boss."
"Of course." Lin Yidao.
Musa went to make a phone call, directly made an international call to Saudi Arabia, the time difference between Hong Kong and Saudi Arabia was five hours, it was already night in Hong Kong, and it was afternoon on the Saudi side.
It took a while for the phone to be connected, and Moussa communicated with the other side in Arabic, and he did not shy away from Lin Yi, because in his opinion, very few people here knew Arabic, and they would not know what they were talking about.
Lin Yi's heart moved.
If you know Arabic, you can know what the other party is communicating, and when you negotiate, the other party knows all the cards, is there anything more wonderful than this?
It costs 100,000 yuan to open a language.
Lin Yi hesitated for half a second, and directly ordered the purchase of Arabic skills.
The next moment,
What Musa said came into Lin Yi's ears as it was, and he no longer listened to the book of heaven, and he heard everything on both sides of the phone clearly.
Chinese products.
The price is almost twice as cheap.
No problem with the quality.
The appearance is slightly unrefined.
Can be sold to oil companies.
There are also sold to the countryside.
I understand
Order a batch of goods to test the water first.
The price is ~~.
Uh-huh,
Lin Yi listened quietly, without any expression on his face, and Moussa chatted with the company for about ten minutes, and finally put down the phone.
"I've been waiting." Moussa sat back on the couch and said in English.
"We should, I wonder how Mr. Moussa communicates with the head office?" Lin Yi asked knowingly.
Musa shrugged,
"It's not very good, we have never used Chinese goods, we don't know what the quality is, and we can't grasp the sales, who knows if the company over there will not like these goods, so the head office is very cautious, and there is no plan to buy goods for the time being."
Moses called this move to retreat into advance.
He believes,
If you say no, the other party will definitely continue to beg you.
When the time comes, it will be easy to grasp the price.
"That's a shame." After Lin Yi heard Musa's words, he said with a depressed expression: "Since this is the case, then we will not disturb Mr. Musa to rest." ”
Musa was a little confused.
It's not the right process.
Say you don't agree, shouldn't you beg bitterly, how can it end directly, this doesn't match his expectations.
"Well, on the phone, I try to convince the company, hoping that they can purchase a batch of your products to test the waters." Mouses hastened to retract his words.
"Yes, Mr. Moussa, has your company agreed to buy the goods?" Lin Yi asked with some surprise.
"It's still under consideration, I think your price should be reduced again, and I'll quote the new price tomorrow and fight for it again." Moussa used a trick.
Lin Yi reported the price to Moussa, reserved room for negotiation, the two sides discussed the price carefully, Moussa made a big move, Lin Yi pulled a little bit, and finally talked about the low price on the other party's phone, although Lin Yi still had space, but he refused to go down.
Lin Yi's biggest advantage now is to know the other party's bottom line.
You can talk on the line.
Earn one more point,
A lot of money is also a lot of money.
In the end, the price was set, which was much higher than Lin Yi's expectation, and when Moussa and Lin Yi shook hands, Lin Yi was very excited.
With the advantage of memorability and language, we won a large order.
The two parties agreed to sign the contract tomorrow morning, and they would invite a lawyer to come over and draw up the contract, after all, it was a large order of $400,000, and the contract was very important.
Farewell to Moussa.
Back at his hotel, Lin Yi was still excited.
Three days after the opening of the new company, he got a big order, which shows that the future is promising, but thinking of buying another skill Arabic for this order, Lin Yi felt distressed again.
Call the system panel.
......
Player: Lin Yi.
Wallet: 40,568 yuan.
Skills: Level 1 Physical Enhancement, Cantonese, English, American English, Unforgettable, Arabic.
System Mall: Golden Space, Physique Enhancement, Language Pack.
Lin Yi's wallet now has more than 40,000 yuan left, which is less than a fraction of what it was before, but Lin Yi has no regrets, people can't be slaves to money, they have to learn to control money.
Following
Lin Yi got up early,
He Qiming also came to the company early, and contacted Baker & McKenzie last night and asked them to draw up a trade contract, which can be completed without a barrister, but as an assistant lawyer.
At half past eight in the morning,
Lin Yi took He Qiming and the lawyer to the Henry Hotel.
In the downstairs restaurant,
Both parties have read the contract,
I think it's no problem to officially sign and seal.
The deal is done.
A $400,000 order is not a small deal in Hong Kong, but it is definitely not a big deal, and lawyers have seen too much.
"Happy cooperation, Mr. Moussa."
"Lin, I will let the company call your company's account tomorrow at the latest, just waiting for your goods, and you must ensure quality and quantity."
"Rest assured, it's absolutely fine."
What is lacking in the country is money, it is foreign exchange, and the supply of products is absolutely no problem, even if Jiangcheng can't provide it, there are other places, so to make a list of foreign exchange, not to mention Jiangcheng, even if the country will not let him run the order, Jiangcheng can't do it, there will be countless large units rushing to do it.
Musa sent Lin Yi and them to the door of the hotel, and the two sides shook hands and said goodbye, at this time, two people got out of a car, and the leader of them was the manager Cui of a trading company that Lin Yi met yesterday.
Manager Cui and Lin Yi passed by,
Manager Cui was stunned for a moment, he felt as if he had seen the person just now somewhere, but he couldn't remember it.
Never mind
I can't think of someone who doesn't matter.
When I looked up, I saw Musa standing at the gate of the hotel, and a smile immediately appeared on his face, "Hello Mr. Musa, why are you at the gate?" ”
When Moussa saw the person who greeted him, he thought for a moment before remembering that it was one of the local trading companies that he cooperated with, "I just sent a partner." ”
"Mr. Moussa, we have drawn up a price list for that batch of tool orders and will send it to you to see." As he spoke, he opened his briefcase and took out a price list from it.
Musa did not refuse,
Looking at the price above,
There is only one thought in my heart,
It's expensive.
The price that Billin gave him was twice as expensive, and after a few glances, he returned the price list to Manager Cui, who was standing next to him with a smile all the time, and Manager Cui was a little stunned, "What's the matter, Mr. Musa, is there anything wrong with the offer, don't worry, this is definitely the best price." ”
Moussa shook his head.
"That batch of orders has already been made, and we will have the opportunity to cooperate again in the future."
Manager Cui only felt that the sky was thundering.
Given to someone else?
Damn it
Who cut me off from business?
That's too fast, isn't it?
They received the purchase order the day before yesterday, sorted out the data yesterday, and came to communicate today, but the other party told him that he had given it to someone else.
The corners of Manager Cui's mouth hooked, and he squeezed out an ugly smile, "Okay, next time we cooperate." ”
......
On the way back to the company,
Not only Lin Yi is happy, He Qiming is also very happy, he is the general manager, and his salary is closely related to the company's performance.
"Those businessmen from Middle Eastern countries are very happy to do things, and the $400,000 list is signed, and they are really rich." He Qiming said with a smile.
"The Sword Comes"
Lin Yixin said,
It is normal for "big dogs" to be arrogant, and after World War II, they started the road to getting rich, that is, they have a lot of money, and after a few years, they bought missiles and successfully cut 100 million yuan into 100 million US dollars each, so they can be called rich and will spend money.
