Chapter 1475 Speech
The case was resolved before Zhen Fan formally negotiated with Airbus and Boeing. () Bit and Johnny got their things smoothly, and nothing was missing. It can only be said that those liars are unlucky and have no vision. But one of the liars was right. He felt a little wronged by being caught, so he confessed: "Who knew that there are such famous and rich people who go to bars to meet women?" This point is indeed misleading. They, but they have to pay back after all.
When Zhen Fan walked into the meeting room again, it was the most advanced meeting room in this hotel, relatively spacious. Moreover, the people from both sides sat together instead of negotiating separately, as if they were clearly calling for bids. In fact, it depends on whose case is better.
When Zhen Fan, Bit and Johnny came in, they had already arrived. When they saw the three of them coming in, two rows of people stood up and applauded. At that time, he smiled and nodded to Zhen Fan, and said to Bit and Johnny by the way: "Everything is going well, don't worry, everything is under control, there will be no troubles, we, the glory of the French To guarantee, no matter what the outcome of the negotiations."
This is a bit righteous, but everyone knows that it is all for business. They chose to talk to Bit and Johnny at this time, and it was mainly to preemptively win the favor of Zhen Fan and the others. Although they didn't expect to settle the business through this, it was still a small bargaining chip. So when he said this, Raymond Taylor from Boeing was a little dumbfounded. They don't know anything.
Zhen Fan nodded to indicate that he knew, so he walked to the main seat and sat down, and Bit and Johnny sat on his left and right sides, and then Zhen Fan said to the two presidents: "Today, I mainly want to Listen to your ideas, we can improve the details later. Of course, it is impossible to talk about it today, because I have to bring the data to my team, they will make a comprehensive comparison, and my team will also conduct Design, who is more suitable for my design intention. Then there is a great chance of getting it. I assure you, I will give you a result within half a month. And there will be no third company involved. " The reason why the third company is not allowed to participate is also to make the two companies feel at ease.
All right. Now the drama begins. The two companies continuously projected their own designs with projectors, and then the main designers explained them. Zhen Fan was dazzled by the pictures, but after all, he basically couldn't see any good or bad for these designs. And Beetle and Johnny weren't much better. In the end, it was not to satisfy Zhen Fan, but to satisfy his family, so Zhen Fan copied these designs and prepared to take them to Los Angeles, and let his family and his design team judge together, and finally got what he wanted.
It took a whole morning to show the pictures of the design, draw some floor plans for the decoration, and explain. At noon, Airbus President Franks Camille invited Zhen Fan to have lunch. Raymond Taylor, Boeing's global sales president, was also planning to invite Zhen Fan. It seemed that the two parties were at odds and went to a small conference room to negotiate.
A compromise was reached, with Boeing serving lunch at noon and Airbus serving dinner.
These are not the key points, the point is that both of them are trying their best to compete. So the lunch, which was supposed to be relatively simple, was very grand. Although it was not a reception, the table was filled with rich food. Employees dine in the large dining room. The three of Zhen Fan and the two presidents enjoyed delicious food in the luxurious small restaurant.
The afternoon time is about the cost of these things. This cannot be discussed in public, let alone in front of one's opponents, so it has become a separate negotiation mode. As a result, the price quoted by Airbus. According to their design, the estimated price is 1.3 billion euros, which is still the price of three private jets. As for the price of the transport plane, it needs to be further budgeted according to Zhen Fan's purchase.
Boeing's quotation is nearly 200 million euros cheaper than Airbus's, and three private jets can be purchased for 100 million euros. Of course, Zhen Fan would not use quotation as the only criterion for choosing a company, but it must be an important criterion. After all, Zhen Fan is now a super rich man, and the invisible wealth is incomparable to a country, and this country is still a medium-developed country with annual gdp, because of those huge gold wealth, Zhen Fan is absolutely sure to slowly turn them into One's own truly aboveboard wealth that can be disposed of at any time.
During the dinner, Airbus invited Zhen Fan and his party, as well as Raymond Taylor, to the most luxurious hotel in Paris in order to show the friendship of the landlord, and held the most luxurious banquet. The mayor of Paris was even invited to attend. Such specifications are beyond the reach of Boeing's Raymond Taylor.
At the banquet, the mayor of Paris made a high-profile toast, and personally invited Zhen Fan to heaven, and the two had a toast together. This is a very honorable thing, and Zhen Fan naturally has to deal with it, after all, you can't refuse someone's enthusiasm. And when the dinner was almost halfway through, two people in black clothes suddenly came in. They were both wearing headsets, and they could be identified as bodyguards or something. And Zhen Fan felt that these two bodyguards were very powerful, at least for ordinary people, they should be regarded as top tasks. You can feel it from the momentum.
The two bodyguards walked directly to the mayor of Paris and whispered something to him. The mayor stood up a little excitedly, and said to everyone dining: "Ladies and gentlemen, we have a distinguished guest here, and he is here specially for Mr. Zhen."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that the door of the restaurant was guarded by several black-clothed bodyguards, and then a few people walked over, surrounded by a tall European man in his sixties and walked in. As soon as the man came in, there was warm applause in the hall.
Yes, this person is the President of France, Franco Sauvad. The temperament of a leader born with him dwarfs the business leaders and senior executives in the hall. He smiled and waved to everyone. He chose to come while eating, obviously, he didn't intend to eat, so he walked directly to Zhen Fan who was sitting next to the main seat, and stretched out his hand to him.
"Mr. Zhen, it's an honor to meet you." Mr. President stretched out his hand and held Zhen Fan's hand and said, "You have become a legend in the United States, but when you come to Europe and France, I hope to be able to witness Seeing the friendship between you and the French people, to be honest, I admire you very much, you are a rising giant!"
This is almost a naked compliment. Zhen Fan was a little surprised that a president could say this. He hurriedly said a few words of modesty, and then Mr. President said to Zhen Fan: "If possible, I would like to bother you and Mr. Zhen, I need that stage, and I would like to say a few words to the elites here talk."
"Of course, Mr. President, this is your right!" Zhen Fan nodded at him. He was surprised that Mr. President came to support him, really surprised. Originally, when the mayor was present, he already felt that the favor was enough. Didn't expect this to come out. Mr. President walked to the podium from the same room, and then began to speak.
After a welcome speech, he began to talk about some history of Airbus. It is expected that Mr. President will stand for Airbus this time. Now that you are here, it is simply unreasonable not to do something for your own country with such a battle, and people will ask whether you are the president of the French.
Then I started to talk about some economic conditions and investment environment in France, and finally I talked about the terrorist attack. Anyway, after talking for about twenty minutes, it sounds like a relatively long speech. But Zhen Fan still heard the overtones. That is, the President of France hopes that Zhen Fan can hand over this business to France.
After France suffered this terrorist attack, it urgently needs good news to boost people's hearts. Although Zhen Fan's business is nothing among the many businesses in France, the pessimism that pervades the entire French sky The atmosphere plays a big role.
Once the words are said on this. Zhen Fan had to consider whether to hand over the business to Airbus. Fortunately, after finishing his speech, Mr. President shook hands with Zhen Fan again and left. But the sales president of Airbus rushed over to explain to Zhen Fan: "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhen, all of this was unexpected, I completely..." He was obviously also worried about the arrival of Mr. President, which made Zhen Fan feel sad. Resentment, not as an honor. Because Mr. President's intention to stand for himself is very obvious. After all, Zhen Fan has no obligation to do this for France.
"It doesn't matter, business is business, favor is favor, I will distinguish it clearly, I hope you can also distinguish clearly, okay?" Zhen Fan said to Franks Camille. Some things need to be tacit. From Zhen Fan's tone, Franks heard hope, so he smiled happily.
"It's not fair, damn it, they violated the rules of the game!" On the other side, a senior employee beside Boeing Sales President Raymond Taylor couldn't help complaining, "We don't have a chocolate president standing for us, It's unfair competition, God, I can't believe it, the French would do that, I knew they wouldn't take it easy."
"No, don't give up so easily!" Raymond Taylor sighed. Ever since the French President mentioned the terrorist attack, he felt that things were not going well. I just remembered that when the French President gave a speech, people from the TV station were recording it. If this video was released, it would definitely put me in a very disadvantageous position. (To be continued.)
