Chapter 41 Agreement
When Lin Chen, Lin Xi, and Li Changjiang arrived, it was already eleven o'clock in the morning. Lin Chen deliberately missed this time in order to have a meal with James. You know, he
Today I brought pork.
What is most persuasive?
Facts are the most convincing. Only after James tastes their pork himself will James believe what they say.
If James is not allowed to taste it himself, Americans will not cooperate with you at all given their arrogant character.
The fact is just as Lin Chen expected. When Lin Chen said how good his pork was at first, James didn't believe it at all. In James's mind, the United States is the most powerful country in the world.
, and Xia State is still a poor and backward country, what good things can such a country have?
But when he tasted the pork brought by Lin Chen, he was immediately conquered by the taste of the meat. Such delicious pork would also be very popular in the United States.
As the most economically developed country in the world, the residents of the United States are not short of money. As long as the goods are good, it doesn't matter how much money they spend.
At the moment of being conquered, James thought of many things. As long as he had such pork, he would not have to worry about repaying the tens of millions of loans he had in the bank.
He even vaguely thought about something further.
"Ms. Lin, I wonder how much pork like this you can provide?"
After tasting it, James began to restrain his emotions and formally discussed cooperation with the Lin Chen siblings. The opportunity to save himself was right in front of him, how could James let it go.
"How much do you want? We will start supplying the first batch of pork in two months. There are 3,000 pigs in total. Each pig weighs 400 kilograms, which is about 1.2 million kilograms." Lin Xi said.
Lin Xi and James all spoke in English. Although Lin Chen could also speak English, he did not speak now, but quietly watched his sister Lin Xi negotiate with James.
The pig farm in Tianjiacun now has a total of 5,000 pigs, of which 2,000 are prepared for Li Changjiang, so only 3,000 can be given to James.
"Oh, no, no, Miss Lin, for such good pork, you only provide so much after two months. This number is too little."
After listening to the data given by Lin Xi, James couldn't help but shake his head.
You know, the area of this world is nearly a hundred times the size of the Earth in the previous life. Of course, the population is much larger than the Earth in the previous life. Don’t think that 1.2 million is a lot of pork, but you have to know that in this era, the United States alone has
With a population of tens of billions, what can this little pork do?
"Mr. James, this number is only the amount of the first batch of pork in two months. Every month in the future, the amount of pork we can provide will be ten times this number, at least ten times. I just don't know, James."
Sir, can you eat it?"
Lin Xi was not panicked at all. She still strictly followed the ideas she had set before. Before coming, he and Lin Chen had already imagined James's possible reaction and formulated corresponding countermeasures one by one.
When negotiating with the children of these big American families, you must be thorough and not careless or sloppy at all. Otherwise, the negotiation will fail if you are not careful. These Americans, despite their appearance, all look careless and without any scheming.
Looks like, if you really believe what he shows on the outside, then you are really screwed.
Just like now, when Lin Xi and James were negotiating, James didn't look like a playboy before. He looked like a completely elite person, very shrewd.
"Quantity is not an issue, but how do you ensure quality?"
James is not stupid. The most important thing about this pork is quality and taste, not quantity. As long as the quality is good, no amount of quantity is a problem for him. As the world's hegemon, the United States also has many subordinates.
If the United States cannot sell all of this pork, can it be sold to other countries?
However, how can such good pork not be sold out in the United States?
"Quality is not an issue. We can indicate it in the contract. If the quality does not meet the requirements, you can reject all our pork."
Lin Xi was not worried at all about her own pork. With Lin Chen's exclusive secret recipe, it was difficult to predict the quality of the pork.
"You have also tasted our pork. What do you think about the price?" Lin Xi asked, this is the most important thing.
Why did they come to James for cooperation today? Isn't it because James is from the United States and Americans are the richest? If it weren't for the fact that Americans are the richest, Lin Chen wouldn't come to see James. He came to
James cooperates just to earn money from Americans to develop himself.
"One pound of pork is one dollar. This price is very fair. You will definitely make a profit." When he mentioned the price, James's face showed the expression that you have made a lot of money.
Hearing this price, Lin Chen almost couldn't help but kill James. This girl is so shameless, one dollar per pound? He still makes a shitty amount of money at this price. He sells it in China
Li Changjiang was paid 20 yuan per catty, which is more than three US dollars per catty when converted into U.S. dollars.
Now James is offering one dollar per pound and acting as if he has suffered a loss. What a shameless person to do.
Lin Chen has finally seen the shameless style of Americans.
"Sister, let's go. Since Mr. James is unwilling to cooperate, then let's find cooperation with the islanders. We originally thought that Americans were very wealthy, but it seems we were wrong. It seems that there are still no islanders in the United States.
You have money."
When Lin Chen said this, he spoke in English, so James could understand it completely.
When Lin Chen said that Americans are not as rich as islanders, James immediately exploded.
In the eyes of Americans, island people are nothing. The island country is just a little brother of the United States. To say it is a younger brother is to praise the island country. To put it bluntly, the island country is just a watchdog in the eyes of the United States.
No matter how rich the island country is, what can it do? It has to do whatever the United States asks it to do?
Looking at James with an angry face, Lin Chen felt funny in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.
"Baby, fight with me, I won't kill you until you die." This was what Lin Chen was thinking at this time.
There has always been commercial competition between the island nation and the United States. Even at its peak, island nation businessmen almost bought the entire New York.
Now, Lin Chen said that James is not as good as the islanders, what do you want him to think?
"Tell me your price and I'll listen."
Looking at Lin Chen and his brother who stood up and were about to leave, James spoke.
He also knew that the price he gave before was too low and was not worthy of such good pork, but that was how business was done, and it was impossible to throw away the trump card from the beginning. The price just now was used by him to test
Lin Chen's sister and brother reacted.
It would be better if it succeeds, but it doesn't matter if it doesn't succeed. The price can be negotiated later. Anyway, James will win the foreign sales agency right no matter what today.
"One pound of pork, fifty dollars."
This time it was Lin Chen who spoke.
"Oh, God, are you crazy? What kind of pork is worth this price?"
As soon as the price came out, James almost jumped up. The price was so crazy. Of course, his exaggerations were all intentional, in order to lower the price. If the price was lowered by one dollar more, he would definitely make a profit.
More than a dollar.
To be honest, the price given by Lin Chen was completely acceptable to James. In his opinion, the pork in Lin Chen's hands was far more than this price, and he could even accept it if it was higher.
Of course, Lin Chen also knew that the price he gave was a bit low compared to the actual value of the pork, but there was no way. Who made their pork not famous in the world?
If the price is lower now, let it be lower. When his pork becomes famous internationally, he will earn back ten times the losses during this period.
"Mr. James, you know very well whether our pork is worth the price. There is no need for both of us to waste time testing each other on this issue. It is better to talk straight to the point. We come to you, too.
Because of your family’s strong strength in the United States, and you also know in your heart that if you buy this batch of pork back, you will definitely make a lot of money..."
Lin Chen talked to James in a clear and coherent manner, and he kept making comments to James, leaving James stunned for a while. Lin Chen's performance completely subverted his attitude towards Xia Guo.
Children's cognition.
When did children in the Xia Kingdom speak such fluent English? Even in some of the big cities in the Xia Kingdom that he had visited, children of his age there were not as good as Lin Chen.
"The price is okay, but I want the exclusive overseas agency rights." James is not a fool. He also knows the value of this pork and its future development prospects.
"This won't work. I can give you the exclusive agency rights in the United States for ten years. As for outside the United States, no." James is not stupid, and Lin Chen is even less stupid. If he really gives James the exclusive agency rights overseas,
, doesn’t that mean he is working for James?
How could Lin Chen do such a stupid thing?
As a result, Lin Chen and James went back and forth, bickering, and started fierce negotiations over price, agency rights, and agency years.
Lin Xi on the side finally saw the excellence of her little brother. At this time, Lin Chen's performance will make you ignore his age. You will find that you are not negotiating with an eight-year-old child, but with an
Business veterans negotiating.
Not only Lin Xi felt this way, but Li Changjiang felt it especially clearly.
In fact, the two of them didn't have the deepest feelings. James had the deepest feelings.
"Okay, Mr. Lin Chen, you win, then let's sign the contract."
Finally, after some heated negotiations, James agreed to sign the agreement.
The price of pork is calculated based on US$50 per catty. The first batch of pork will be delivered in two months, and the weight must not be less than one million catties.
Because this was the first time we cooperated, half of the first batch of payment was paid first, and the other half was handed over to a third-party agency for safekeeping. After the batch of pork was inspected in the United States and there were no problems, the remaining payment was paid directly to Lin Chen by the third-party agency.
Of course, Lin Chen also made a concession, which was to give James the agency rights for their pork in the Americas for ten years.
Chapter completed!
