My Fintech Empire

The time comes for Thursday, July 25th.

Today we have another meeting and discussion with the French people. This is the third meeting.

After doing a lot of work as a seller, Fachuren also saw it through some of his own channels, but after seeing it, he became even more excited.

Although going to a group of companies to buy products may annoy you, but who lets you bully others too much? Your current mentality is, since you are in the first grade of junior high school, don’t blame me for being in the fifteenth grade. What's more, the guy in Blue Fox International's hands also has the LOGO trademark of Xingyu Technology. You can use it, and I can use it too.

However, the Grasshoppers still refused to give up and wanted to ask the Galaxy Enterprises to stop subsequent supplies to Blue Fox International and stand on their side.

What the Frenchman wants is to buy a batch first and compete with Blue Fox International to consume all the drone equipment already in the opponent's hands. As long as the companies in the galaxy cut off the supply, this way they can attack and defend. For this reason, the French people also extended an olive branch, promising to purchase their products in large quantities, and even promised to transfer some of the French people's interests in Africa.

I have to say that in this matter, the Pharaoh is still a little too naive and romantic, and it also highlights the weakness of his intelligence.

He actually tried to consume the inventory in the hands of Blue Fox International. If the Frenchman knew that Blue Fox International was at the headquarters base in Somali, Kismayu, one or two million drones could be assembled with just the parts in the inventory. The machine would not think so.

What is even more naive is to offer up the so-called transfer of part of the interests of the Grasshopper in Africa. In this way, the sellers will be deeply tied to their side, and then the galaxies will be even less likely to have dealings with Blue Fox International. It seems to be a one-step move. Not a bad strategy.

…

"Mr. Flix, we value honesty, objectivity and neutrality in doing business. If you insist on asking us to take sides, we won't do the business." The vice president of Bionic Power Company, who was in charge of the trip, refused without hesitation.

He then said calmly: "If you want us to take sides, then this is no longer a purely business issue, but an issue of political stance. We are a company from China. Although I am not a political leader, my remarks are not Represent the political stance of our country.”

After a moment, the vice president paused and then added: "But as a citizen of the Eastern Powers, in my personal opinion, the Eastern Powers never need to take sides, and there is no such thing as taking sides, because the Eastern Powers are in formation. In itself, others should be on our team according to our formation, not whose team we are on, do you understand?”

When the vice president said these words, he showed extremely strong confidence and even a condescending attitude. Even if they don't understand his language, the people present at the meeting can still sense something from his expression and voice.

As soon as the translator next to him relayed his words, Flix's expression changed slightly after hearing this. At this moment, he also realized that it was impossible to deeply bind the opponent to a tank.

During the rest of the conversation, Flix's momentum weakened by three points without realizing it.

The content of the discussion between the two parties officially returned to the business itself, and bargaining began.

Flix argued rationally: "Your quotation is too expensive. A combat robot dog sells for US$45,000. This is too much. We are planning to place a comprehensive order of US$6 billion, and drones are also very expensive." , and the military version of the MIX headset, you guys are too dark!”

At this moment, Flix looked very excited, and the other party was asking for a high price.

Objectively speaking, it is indeed very expensive. A combat robot dog is quoted at US$45,000, which is about 315,000 yuan according to the current exchange rate. The manufacturing cost of this thing in the mainland is only 3,000 yuan per piece, and the premium rate reaches 105 times more insane.

The vice president of Bionic Power Company was very calm. He looked at the other party and said calmly: "You know Mr. Flix, your game with Blue Fox International in Africa is now at a disadvantage. This is obvious. You urgently need to recover." The disadvantage situation is imminent, which will inevitably lead to a transaction that is not cheap, but it is still worth it for you.”

Hearing this, Flix suddenly became angry: "You are taking advantage of the situation, and you are doing it blatantly!"

The vice president shrugged his shoulders. Seeing that the other party was indifferent and seemed to be indifferent whether the deal was done or not, Flix was cursing in his heart.

But there is really no bargaining power. Facing the advantage of Blue Fox International, the most reliable solution at the moment is to use magic to defeat magic. Other methods are not easy to use. Flix wants to leave the meeting, but he is still honest. Sitting at the negotiating table with no intention of leaving.

After a while, the vice president of Fanshen Dynamic Company suddenly smiled and said: "To be honest, we also hate Mr. Magus very much. Many companies under our group are suppressed by Mr. Magus because everyone is unhappy with him. For your sake, I’ll give you a 18.82% discount. The robot dog will cost you $39,999 each. Other products are also 18.82% off. Blue Fox International doesn’t have this discount.”

The vice president continued with a smile: "After all, we are all unhappy with Mr. Magus. Blue Fox International is the talon of Mr. Magus. We don't like this organization either. It's just that business is business, and every code belongs to one code. We have this organization." We don’t have to like it, but if we can make money, we still have to do business.”

Just when Flix's brows relaxed for a moment after hearing that the other party was willing to make concessions, the vice president at the meeting changed the subject and added: "But the basis for this discount is that you must double the total purchase order amount."

After this, Flix immediately refused sternly: "This is impossible. 6 billion US dollars is already our budget limit."

The military expenditure budget of the French crickets for the whole year is only about 66 billion US dollars. Taking out 6 billion US dollars is already a very large number. If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't find a second reliable seller, the French crickets would definitely not want to do this deal. The other party is blackmailing and taking advantage of the fire, and they are too lazy to even pretend. It's simply too much.

But unfortunately, there is really no more reliable second seller on the surface of this planet.

As time went on, the two sides once again launched several rounds of bargaining, but as the vice president of Bionic Power Company said, the situation is tilted towards the seller's market, and the French crickets don't have many cards in their hands.

The people from the Qunxing Stars insisted that if they increased the quantity, they would get a discount, but if they didn't, they would not get a discount.

This scene was a reversal of the heavens. When the people from Dongda University approached these European Magnesium people to purchase advanced equipment 20 or 30 years ago, they also had an attitude of "buy if you want, get out if you don't." In comparison, the people from the Qunxing Stars were much more cultured.

In the end, they really couldn't control the people from the Qunxing Stars, so the Fagua people had to compromise and agree to increase the quantity.

But the Fagua people still won some, and the final result was not to double to 12 billion US dollars, but to remove the decimal part and take an integer, that is, the total purchase amount was 10 billion US dollars.

The people from the Qunxing Stars also stopped when they saw the good, knowing that the Fagua people really couldn't pay so much money. After all, they were not as wealthy as the local tyrants of Shat. The military expenditure budget of the Fagua people this year was only 66 billion US dollars, and being able to take out 10 billion US dollars accounted for more than 15% of their military expenditure this year.

There is always a long way to go, and this deal is not a one-time deal.

Although Fang Hong was not on the front line discussing this deal with the Fagua people, he was sure that Fagua would place additional orders in the future, and would cry for more positions.

Because there is something called sunk cost.
