Chapter 487 Play hard to get
As the saying goes, nothing is difficult in the world, as long as you are willing to give up.
After quickly excusing themselves, George and Adam's thoughts were as fast as light.
Of course, this kind of content involving private transactions is definitely not easy to put on the negotiation table.
The main reason is that the negotiating team brought by Luo Luo is not very good. They were selected temporarily last night, and many of them are not close confidants of the two.
Therefore, some content cannot be allowed to be heard by these people.
Therefore, after the negotiations were restarted, their focus obviously did not continue to be on the Sibei project. Instead, they began to indirectly ask what China's needs for aviation power would be in the future.
The people on the Chinese side are all experienced veterans. Seeing Luo Luo's attitude softening, but still refusing to get to the point, they probably guessed what was going on.
In short, after some back and forth of mutual hints, although the two parties did not reach a final agreement, they still exchanged views candidly and established a corresponding working mechanism to prepare for the next more in-depth negotiation. The foundation is laid.
After the meeting, Ren Bingda and Gao Ning frankly invited George and Adam to have dinner at a high-end restaurant in Haojing City.
The British take status and class very seriously.
Normally, this is certainly not an advantage.
But for this situation, it can save a lot of things.
After a meeting, the two leaders have a meal, which is common anywhere in the world.
Just in different cultures, the specific implementation will be different.
For example, in China, it would look very strange if you don't bring a few accompanying people with you to a meal.
Everyone knows what kind of insider trading you are going to do privately.
For the British, this is a normal situation.
Whatever the identities and statuses of your entourage are, they should not appear on the same occasion.
And if you go to the United States, you may have to go to an island and hand in a certificate of nomination...
...
Because Gao Ning went to the Workers', Peasants and Soldiers' University, his English level is average. He can barely understand the articles, but he can't communicate well.
However, Ren Bingda is a genuine British student who graduated from the University of Birmingham and speaks English very well.
If there is no identity requirement in a formal occasion, then there is no need for translation at all.
Therefore, after arriving at the place, the latter quickly signed the order and served good wine and food to the private room reserved for four people.
After dealing with the British for a long time, he already knew this group of people quite well.
Although they appear to be decent people during working hours, as soon as they get off work, they all turn into drunkards.
The key is, I am greedy for wine, but my drinking capacity is very poor.
For Ren Bingda, who once talked with Lao Maozi, this is as easy as going back to play on the novice difficulty level after getting the platinum achievement.
The wine table is often a good place to talk.
This point cannot be changed at all times and in all countries.
Sure enough, after drinking a few glasses of strong foreign wine, the two British people talked a lot.
"Mr. Ren, Mr. Gao, Sibei...can you really make so many components of Sibei?"
The privacy of this private room is quite good. Smelling drunk, George, who also had a technical background, asked questions that he couldn't figure out.
However, for the Hao Fei duo, Gao Ning, who was not good at English, was mainly holding back the drinks, so Ren Bingda, who was in charge of speaking, was relatively sober.
He pretended to ponder, and then shook his head after a moment:
"This...actually, I don't know much about it."
"To be honest, our group originally wanted to The business of SPEI continued, but two months ago, we suddenly received instructions from our superiors, saying that all the foreign exchange quotas originally planned for importing SPEI components and technology introduction were cleared, and we were preparing to switch to domestic production. Now we are also at the same level. Wu Shui, just following the order..."
"Oh? Is there such a thing?"
George, who originally just wanted to find a topic to jump into and satisfy his curiosity, seemed to be caught. Live some interesting content:
"But before replacing components, shouldn't there be a round of installation testing first? You should be responsible for this, right?"
"That's the problem..."
Ren Bingda He quickly filled up the wine glasses for the other party and himself, and looked distressed:
"None of the things you mentioned have been done yet. We are also worried that there will be problems with domestic parts..."
While speaking, he also mentally apologized to Chang Haonan, whom he had never met before.
Yam Bingda's acting is actually a bit stiff.
If it were left to normal, there might be some clues.
But the light inside the box was dim, and the other three people were already at least 40 to 50% drunk, so their minds were not spinning as fast as usual.
What’s more important is that George and Adam have stayed in China for nearly a year, and have participated in various entertainment events. They consider themselves to be experienced in this area——
In this era, many places are trying to Almost every effort is made to attract investment.
Foreigners, especially foreigners like them who come here with capital, are basically the targets of being kneeled down and licked wherever they go.
With this mentality, many people are not wary of them.
Some secrets don’t even require others to deliberately inquire about them, but people on their own side take the initiative to reveal them...
In short, living in such a matching environment for a long time will lead to two people becoming confused. Segmentation was gradually incorporated.
Some people dare to say anything, and they both dare to believe everything. So after hearing Ren Bingda’s complaint, Adam quickly answered:
"In that case, our cooperation must continue... As you said, if there is a problem with those new parts, shouldn't we use the stock parts we provide to support the scene?"
< br>
“We can apply to the head office to erase part of the origin of these pieces, so that you can use them as domestically produced...”
This recent incident in China Over the years, he has also been in contact with many foreigners who are also doing business in China. He knows that many Chinese companies will repurchase imported products and disguise them as domestically produced in order to meet the localization rate requirements in some tenders.
Of course, some people do the opposite, disguising domestic products as imported products and selling them at high prices.
So it was natural for Adam to come up with this idea.
Ren Bingda and Gao Ning looked at each other.
Obviously, two British people have taken the bait.
"This is not a question of whether we are willing or not, Mr. Whittle..."
As soon as the former spoke, he was interrupted by Adam waving his hand:
"In private, just call me Adam..."
Ren Bingda nodded:
"Mr. Adam, you also know that our country has very strict controls on the use of foreign exchange. Without quotas, there is no way we can trade with you..."
"Yes."
Gao Ning looked distressed, but then he started singing. White Face:
"Moreover, the risk of doing this is too high. The order to use domestically produced parts is clearly notified by the above. We will act according to the rules. Even if something goes wrong, we can get rid of the main responsibility. But if we continue to use the parts you provide, If we are discovered, we brothers will have to bear the responsibility..."
Ren Bingda next to him looked indifferent:
"What you said is wrong. If you have a problem, don’t users want to find us? Let me see, Adam is right, we have to find a way to continue this business.”
“Besides, this is what Siro Company relies on now. The import and export business is maintained. If the contract is stopped and the company has to go bankrupt, it will not be easy for the two of them to explain to the company, right?"
"We brothers still have pensions. If you are fired by the company, it will be troublesome..."
He deliberately interspersed Chinese and English between his words, and looked up to the opposite side with a concerned tone:
"Am I right?"
"This..."
Although Ren Bingda's tone seemed to be caring about his friends, the content he said always sounded like "Madam, you don't want to lose your job, right?"
“I have a solution.”
George was so anxious that he quickly brought the topic back on track.
No matter what you say, Ren Bingda’s meaning is correct -
China can do this business whether it is public or private, but he and Adam have no retreat, they must Bite the bullet and go on.
“You can find another name to apply for a foreign exchange, continue to do business with our Rolls-Royce company, and then allocate part of this fund to continue the procurement of the Sibei project.”
“In this way, you don’t have to worry about users coming to make trouble, and we can continue to maintain the normal operations of Siro Company, how about that?”
After Ren Bingda said so much, he was waiting for the other party to take the initiative to make such a request.
Of course, he couldn't agree right away.
"Well...I'm afraid it's hard for the two of us to make the decision..."
He said and glanced at Gao Ning.
“The problem of misappropriating foreign exchange funds privately is even more serious...”
The latter was originally responsible for playing the fool, and now he was even more unceremonious:
"We can't just take risks and get no benefits at all, can we?"
This The meaning is obvious.
Since you took the initiative to mention this content, is it not too much for us to add some conditions?
But Gao Ning also drank a little too much at this time, with that tone and that accent.
Anyone looking at it would think it was asking for a bribe.
George and Adam opposite were naturally not surprised either.
The two of them were immediately confused.
What do you mean, you have to give me some rebate?
Fortunately, Ren Bingda was still sober, so he quickly added:
"Gao Ning is right. You Luoluo need to come up with something real. In this way, the two of us can explain to our superiors..."
"Otherwise...otherwise we don't have to wait any longer. In the last year or two, at least I won't make mistakes..."
"Real stuff?"
At this time, George also felt that he had fallen into a trap.
But there was no turning back at this point, so I had to put down the wine glass in my hand:
"What do you want?"
"Well..."
Ren Bingda drank half a glass of wine by himself, held his forehead and pretended to think for a while.
Gao Ning continued to perform beside him:
“It can’t be a too complicated model, otherwise by the time the technology is fully understood, the two of us would have retired long ago, and all the credit for our hard work would have been given to others. In the mouth..."
"But it can't be too simple, otherwise the superiors will definitely not pay attention to it..."
About a minute later, Ren Bingda finally raised his head:
"I heard that your company has a small Turbine engine, called M250? ”
