Chapter 1858 frank exchange of opinions
Piero stood aside and his whole face was about to be angry. Of course, he could see what the drama in front of him meant, and he also knew that Zhou Ming said that just now, deliberately framed Hunter publicly in front of him, destroying himself and his trust.
But even though I know, Piero couldn't find a good solution, and even believed Hunter could not do it, let alone Hunter's final compromise.
He is this selfish idiot!
Piero cursed fiercely in his heart, knowing that as Hunter compromised on the relocation of the Bit Factory, he would have no room for cooperation with him.
However, Piero did not place all hope on Hunter. Seeing Hunter compromise, Piero immediately turned around and looked at Zhou Ming.
"Mr. Zhou Ming, I think we have always been the closest partners, and our friendship should be very deep. We have the broadest cooperation prospects in terms of factory relocation," Piero said.
Piero's acting skills and face are top-notch, and Zhou Ming was amazed at how he had the face to say such words.
It is true that he has the widest range of cooperation with him, but he stabs himself in the back not once or twice. To say that he has a deep friendship with him is definitely the biggest joke of this century.
Piero also understood what he was like. It was a delusion to play the emotional card to convince Zhou Ming. Piero then told Zhou Ming: "Maybe there is a small misunderstanding between us, but just like corporate bidding, you always have to compete and bid among various companies to finally choose the best one. I believe that at this point, we must have many common topics."
Compared with the simple emotional card before, Piero's remarks are quite beautiful, especially the meaning he left behind, which can compete with Hunter and allow Zhou Ming to get better conditions.
Generally speaking, this situation is difficult to refuse.
After hearing this, Hunter became tense at that time, looking like he was facing a great enemy, glaring at Piero, who had already shown to be a competitor.
Piero turned a blind eye to Hunter's gritting teeth, but looked at Zhou Ming, looking as if he was sure to win. He didn't think Zhou Ming had any reason to refuse. He even saw the Chinese cadre next to Zhou Ming's face full of eagerness to try.
Facing Piero's gaze, Zhou Ming smiled: "Indeed, Mr. Piero's conditions are very tempting. Let you compete with each other to fight for better conditions for yourself. Any clear-headed businessman will make this choice, but I'm sorry, I'm not among them."
This unexpected turn almost flashed Piero's waist. He stared at Zhou Ming with incredible eyes widened, and he couldn't believe that Zhou Ming actually rejected his proposal?
Zhou Ming smiled and patted Hunter on the shoulder and told Piero: "We Chinese all attach great importance to credibility. Since we have promised others' things, we must do it no matter what!"
Zhou Ming then said: "Of course I am not against your cooperation with Piero. It's just that the invitation is now that Mr. Hunter and I have made an appointment, and Piero is here temporarily, so neither of us is ready. I hope Mr. Piero can understand."
Zhou Ming's explanation was very detailed, but Piero still stared at him and couldn't accept it.
However, if you accept it or not, Zhou Ming cannot control it. Zhou Ming then asked Les to ask Mr. Piero to leave first. Of course, before he left, Zhou Ming also guaranteed him.
After Hunter, Zhou Ming will definitely contact him.
After seeing Piero away, Zhou Ming returned to his seat. Hunter and Westin still didn't come back to their senses. They were as unbelievable as Piero. Zhou Ming actually did this.
The experienced Hunter was the first to come back to his senses: "Mr. Zhou Ming, are you using us, right?"
Zhou Ming did not answer this question, but said with a smile: "Mr. Hunter, I think it is meaningless to worry about this issue now. In comparison, let's talk about the industrial relocation."
Zhou Ming deliberately paused, and then emphasized: "The kind that shows sincerity!"
Hunter sighed slightly, obviously guessing Zhou Ming’s intention, but he still asked knowingly: “I don’t understand what Mr. Zhou Ming is saying, what is showing sincerity. Do you want us to give away the factory we are in for free?”
"It would be boring if Mr. Hunter said this. I never said that, and I wouldn't say that in the future. I just wanted to talk about something practical, rather than asking for a huge price like last time." Zhou Ming said.
"That's not a sky-high price! It's the common rules for us to build factories all over the world!" Hunter was still making the final argument.
But this is obviously futile. Zhou Ming shook his head and denied: "But this set of rules is simply wrong, and we don't accept it!"
Hunter lost, saying that he could give up those legal immunities and sovereignty requirements, but he had to be cared for in terms of factory land and loan support, as well as project subsidies, and factory technology, which is protected by law and must be kept confidential.
Zhou Ming also denied his requests, and Zhou Ming also reminded him: "I advise Mr. Hunter to put away that boring bargaining trick, because you have lost the initiative."
Hunter's face was solemn, and he asked Zhou Ming what conditions he wanted to talk about.
Zhou Ming told him that he would not agree to what he mentioned just now: "Whether it is factory land or loans, it is the same as domestic companies. If you are not an American company, you should get discounts. Moreover, you must teach Chinese engineers the factory technology and do not allow technology monopoly!"
Hunter was furious at the time: "This is impossible! If this is the case, wouldn't it mean to give the factory to you for free? It is absolutely impossible to agree to such humiliating conditions!"
Zhou Ming smiled meaningfully: "Equal investment has become a humiliating condition? It seems that if Mr. Hunter doesn't take advantage of it, it's like losing money, right?"
Hunter did not take this offense, he just reminded Zhou Ming that his patience was limited: "If you continue to be so aggressive, you will only face a worse situation than now!"
Zhou Ming glanced at Director Zhou, who stood up and said to Hunter: "Within my power, I can promise to give Mr. Hunter some preferential conditions for taxation and land use to your company. If you need a loan, we can also help you get the best interest..."
Director Zhou said bitterly, but Hunter slapped the table and angrily scolded Director Zhou for being insulted as a Milong man.
"I absolutely cannot sell Miron's interests!" Hunter said in a slander.
Zhou Ming and Director Zhou continued to discuss these conditions repeatedly with Hunter Westing in the next period, but the differences between the two sides were always too big. Zhou Ming insisted on not giving any discounts, while Hunter and Westing insisted on giving discounts at least in terms of land and loans, and even strictly enforced technical strictness.
Confidential.
In this way, the two sides could only exchange opinions frankly, making the talks beneficial and enhanced the understanding between the two sides. Zhou Ming was able to respect the other party's opinions and appreciate the other party's positive attitude towards the talks, but he still reserved his opinions on the conditions proposed by the other party and took a solid step towards reaching a consensus in the future.
When speaking people, everyone says their own words, and you just say "Go to you?"
The two sides quarreled for nearly an hour, and finally Hunter asked Zhou Ming incomprehensible: "This is a cooperation with China. What are you doing so actively? I can give you a lot of money on behalf of Meilong, and even cooperation with Gulf Oil Company. We cannot talk about it!"
Zhou Ming turned his head and looked at Director Zhou beside him. He was really amused and crying about Hunter's statement.
Don’t say that you don’t have this idea. Even if you have it, you can’t say it so openly, then who would agree?
Shaking his head and putting aside these boring thoughts, Zhou Ming also said to Hunter: "Since Mr. Hunter has spoken out, I'll just say it straight. Indeed, the benefits behind this Irank War are very huge and have made me very moved. However, compared to these simple benefits, I hope to establish a close cooperative relationship with Meilong."
"Of course there is no problem!" Westin answered without thinking, "I said I could give you a portion of the shares of Milon Bank, which represents the sincerity of Milon!"
Zhou Ming shook his head and said that it was not a simple stock: "It is the kind of people who need to reach a common advance and retreat with Meilong, and even have the right to speak in Meilong's decision."
"This is impossible, your request is too much!" Hunter rebuked this time.
Just kidding, if you want the right to speak within the Meilong family, why should you be a Chinese? This is just thinking about nothing!
But Zhou Ming is also very determined. If it is just an ordinary cooperation, he will still suffer the same betrayal as Morgan. He needs a contract that will never betray, rather than an unbinding verbal guarantee.
But Hunter and Westing said firmly: You are dreaming.
So, the two sides quarreled for more than an hour, and finally everyone parted ways. Zhou Ming didn't even make an appointment with Hunter Westing for the next meeting.
"These capitalists really can't change their shit. They have reached this point and they are still thinking about asking for a lot of money to pay it back locally! They always want to take advantage!" Director Zhou said indignantly with exhausted face.
Zhou Ming was very calm. After all, capitalists are engraved in DNA. If they can suffer a good and generous loss, that would be remarkable news.
Of course, Director Zhou understood this, but just thinking about their face just now, he couldn't help but get angry.
Not only that, Director Zhou also asked Zhou Ming that he had not agreed on anything today, is it really okay to let them go like this?
You should know that Piero has offended him, and their conditions will only be more ruthless than Miron's side next time, and he will contact other wealthy families, which is very worried.
"Director Zhou, are you worried that they will form an alliance?" Zhou Ming asked.
Director Zhou did not answer this question positively, but instead analyzed to Zhou Ming that even if they did not join forces, they would definitely exchange opinions privately. If they waited for their opinions to be almost done, then there would be no room for improvement on their side.
