After listening to Chen Mu's words, Qi Yinong thought for a while and said, "I think they will accept the other conditions, but the triple price increase feels too much."
After a slight pause, Qi Yinong explained to Chen Mu: "Think about it, just say that the batch of goods detained and inspected is worth 100 million yuan. If it triples, it will be 300 million yuan. too much."
"Not much at all!"
Chen Mu said categorically, "Brother Qi, then you can directly offer them four or five times the price, and work with them slowly. Anyway, it will be enough to negotiate three times in the end. I will never give in this time."
Qi Yinong smiled wryly: "You really think our diplomatic step is your negotiating team? We just help you communicate."
Chen Mu said: "Then you guys go to communicate. The fact that we have tripled the price will not change. If not, this business will not be done. Go to whoever you like!"
Qi Yinong asked: "Is there really no room to move around?"
"No!"
After Chen Mu thought about it, he explained to Qi Yinong: "Brother Qi, as I said, the price we gave them before was lower than the retail price, and now the price increase is only slightly higher than the retail price. Actually nothing.
In the future, the saplings we export to the outside world will be priced at this price, and no one will be an exception.
Brother Qi, you can think about it, how much trouble they have saved by using our saplings, just talk about the benefits generated from it, and they will not lose money.
Anyway, we still have the reason now. If they don't want to, then let them find someone else, and we won't serve them. "
Qi Yinong was silent for a while, and finally nodded: "Okay, I'll just help you talk about it. As for the specific result, I'll tell you later."
"good!"
The two quickly hung up the phone.
…
A few days later, Qi Yinong called again.
"It's done, they agreed to your conditions."
Qi Yinong's voice was very excited on the phone: "I never thought that they would agree so quickly."
Chen Mu was also a little surprised. He originally thought it would take a while, but now the speed is a bit faster than he imagined.
"They listened to our conditions... have nothing to say?"
"Of course I did. I was very tough at the beginning, but I gave up in the end."
Qi Yinong said with a smile: "We thought we would take it slow, but they agreed within a few days. Later, I had someone check it out. It turned out that the emails urging the saplings have been full of their cadres at all levels. The mailbox and even the secretariat have received related requests, so they have to expedite the matter."
After a slight pause, Qi Yinong continued: "There is no doubt about the importance of your saplings. I didn't realize this before. Now according to this situation, the United Nations should have a very clear understanding, and we should also adjust awareness of oneself.
Well, several of our diplomatic colleagues said that they only focused on desert rice before, but now it seems that even the cultivation technology of this sapling must be put on the export control list. "
It also controls...
Chen Mu thought it was a big deal, and the price had tripled. If it couldn't be exported in the future, wouldn't it be a big loss
"Brother Qi, this...isn't it necessary?"
"That's all. You have established training bases in Israel. What else is there to control?"
After Qi Yinong said this, Chen Mu was relieved in class.
He couldn't help but feel that it was a wise move to build this seedling base in Israel. Fortunately, with this base, he didn't have to worry about facing regulations and the like.
In fact, the most important thing is that the cultivation base has been established for so long, and there is no problem of technology leakage, so the diplomats can rest assured.
In fact, the seeds in the nursery base are all imported from China, and the vitality value has already been increased in the country. In the past, it was just ordinary cultivation, and there was no technology at all, let alone leaking.
The two chatted a few more words on the phone, and they were about to hang up after talking about the matter.
When he was about to hang up the phone, Qi Yinong seemed to suddenly think of something, and said: "Although the detention and investigation this time has passed, we have received information that you should have been targeted by the United States. Things like this It may happen again in the future, you have to be mentally prepared... Well, your company should also have such a sense of prevention, so that you don’t be at a loss and overreact when encountering things.”
"Um?"
Chen Mu thought for a while, then frowned and said, "After this time, we won't care about the logistics anymore. Even if they want to do something to us, there's nothing they can do about it?"
Qi Yinong said: "The current situation is that as long as it is a company of our Xia country, which has a certain degree of competitiveness in the world, it will be targeted by the other party. After all, they are an old big country and they have a lot of cards in their hands. Well, to put it bluntly It’s just that they have all kinds of means to display, which makes people hard to guard against, so don’t take it lightly.”
After a slight pause, Qi Yinong said: "I'll just give you a simple example. When you conduct transactions outside, you use their currency, and you also have account settlement in their currency. If they make a move in this regard, you will , it will also be a big blow to you, and it will cause a lot of trouble."
"Is that so..."
Chen Mu understood, and then fell silent.
Originally, I thought that what Qi Yinong said was very far away from him. After all, it was aimed at relatively large companies in the world.
But now, it seems that he is around, and the threat is already approaching.
Chen Mu didn't know whether to be proud or worried. What the hell is this? He was accidentally targeted by the United States.
Just kidding, if something like this happens, will Muya Forestry become an internationally renowned trademark certified by the United States
Seeing that Chen Mu understood, Qi Yinong quickly hung up the phone.
Chen Mu put down the phone, thought for a while, walked to Zuo Qingfeng's office, and explained the matter.
"What? Triple?"
Zuo Qingfeng was a little stunned when he heard the result.
Chen Mu didn't tell Zuo Qingfeng about this before, and he felt that the United Nations might not agree.
But I didn't expect it to be done, and now I talked to Zuo Qingfeng, it gave Zuo Qingfeng a big surprise.
Chen Mu could only tell Zuo Qingfeng the whole story, mainly because the information Qi Yinong inquired about was very important.
After hearing this, Zuo Qingfeng understood the situation, but he still couldn't help feeling: "You're stealing money!"
Chen Mu looked at Zuo Qingfeng a little aggrieved: "Uncle Zuo, why am I like this... I thought you would be very happy after hearing the news.
When you lost 30 million before, how could I remember that you looked sad and didn't smile for several days.
Now we are earning money back aboveboard, you shouldn't be like this. "
Zuo Qingfeng came back to his senses and nodded: "I'm happy, of course I'm happy, but I didn't expect them to agree to such a condition. It seems that our saplings are very important... Well, in the future, I will talk to those who place orders abroad. You just have to be a little tougher.”
"That's how it should be!"
Chen Mu fully agrees.
Although they are Party B, they can't always kneel to make money, they should straighten their waists and stand up straight.
Especially after the matter of the Environmental Planning Agency, Chen Mu felt that no matter what organization, it was the same thing.
If you should be tough, you have to be tough, there is no need to "think" for the other party, when people cheat them, they can confiscate them.
After discussing with Chen Mu for a while, Zuo Qingfeng became energetic all of a sudden.
I paid 30 million yuan for no reason before, and a batch of goods were deducted. I feel a little aggrieved to the extreme.
It was the first time for Zuo Qingfeng to encounter such a big setback after he took the position of general manager of Muya Forestry, which was very heart-breaking.
But in a blink of an eye, after hearing the "good news" from Chen Mu's side, my heart suddenly felt relieved, and I no longer felt aggrieved, and even felt a little relieved because of the triple price increase.
"Have a meeting and tell everyone the good news!"
Zuo Qingfeng boldly made a decision, and he also said: "Take this opportunity to coordinate with them, and unify our caliber when doing foreign trade in the future."
Chairman Chen has no objection to this at all, everything is up to the head.
A few days later—
The new contract was signed, and it was signed in the Diplomatic Step and the Business Step with help from negotiation.
The entire contract smacked of an alliance under the city, and the terms in it made Muya Forestry take advantage of it and feel proud.
For the sake of the new contract, Chen Mu added William's number back and resumed contact with the other party.
"Our Miao money... well, and the interest of the previous few days have already been transferred to your account, Mu, please check it."
William was very polite on the phone, and he completely lost the previous "shangguan" attitude.
Chen Mu had been dealing with the other party for some time before, but in fact he didn't mind the high profile of the other party, after all, he is a distinguished customer father, as long as he can get the order, he can say anything.
But after this time, Chen Mu didn't do much better, William put down half of his body first, his posture was very soft.
This way of communication is very curative and makes people feel at ease. Chen Mu replied: "I have received it. Our financial manager came to confirm with me yesterday."
William made this call, of course, not just to confirm the payment with Chen Mu, but more importantly, he was preparing to restore the relationship with Chen Mu and ease the conflicts caused by the seizure incident.
"Mu, I'm really sorry about this incident. If you need anything in the future, you can contact me. I will try my best to help."
"It's okay, what happened before was trivial, and you don't mind, I was too angry and reacted too violently."
Everyone will say good things, Chen Mu has been proficient since he was a child, and now he has taken advantage of it. Of course, he can no longer be arrogant and hateful... This is the principle of life passed down by the ancestors of Xia Guo, and it cannot be lost.
After the fake apology, Chen Mu said again: "Because of my impulsiveness, I caused you a lot of trouble for the Environmental Planning Agency, so I want to give you a little gift."
"No, no, we can't accept gifts..."
"It's some tea leaves I planted myself. It's worthless. You're welcome."
Chen Mu didn't plan to send more, anyway, it was just to ease the relationship, after all, he would have to deal with it later: "What's the name of your boss, I'm going to write him a small card in the gift."
When Chen Mu asked about his boss, William was silent for a while, and then said: "My... my boss... well, he is on vacation, just send me the things, and I will pass them on for you."
In fact, Charles has been ordered to suspend his duties, and all his management affairs are being handed over to another chief officer.
Although it didn't say that Charles would never come back in the future, judging from the current situation, he shouldn't be able to come back.
This kind of treatment was so serious that it was a bit beyond imagination, which made William feel a little bit insecure, that's why he treated Chen Mu with such a low profile.
As far as he knew, the Xia country diplomat first issued a very formal report to the United Nations Secretariat, stating the whole incident, and made a strong request for the secretariat to investigate this incident.
It is precisely because of this that Charles, as the mastermind of "selling out the supplier", was ordered to suspend his duties even though there was no evidence that he was really dereliction of duty.
In fact, the most important thing is that because of what Charles did, the interests of the United Nations were actually damaged.
In their new contract with Muya Forestry, Lianhe Guo had to pay twice the price to purchase strategically important saplings from Muya Forestry.
Even at such a price, Muya Forestry had to accept more and harsher transaction conditions.
From this point of view alone, the United Nations is the most innocent victim.
Therefore, this incident led to the downfall of a promising chief executive, which greatly shocked the UNEP and other departments.
Chen Mu didn't know that he had become a big devil in the eyes of others, but he was still working hard to play the little white rabbit: "So it's like this, that's fine, I'll send you the tea, William, please Be sure to apologize to your boss, this time I was too impulsive."
"OK, thanks!"
William didn't want to talk about it, so he quickly changed the subject and talked about saplings.
Of course, Chen Mu also patiently and modestly chatted with clients, and behaved politely. If he rated himself, not to mention 100 points, 90 points would definitely be there... Anyway, he feels good about himself.
But William had a hard time coping with it, for fear of saying the wrong thing and making the Xia country boy unhappy.
He has already experienced the temper of this Xia Guo boy, he will take an order worth 100 million yuan seriously, pay 30 million yuan directly, and play decoupling without saying a word.
He absolutely didn't want such a thing to happen again, especially at this time, he just wanted to get along with this kid and keep the order of the saplings firmly.
