Chapter 134 Successful Signing
To explore a broader market space.
At the same time, we can also purchase the necessary color current-discharge lines at a reasonable price, thereby meeting our production needs.
At this point, Zhao Yuan paused, his gaze fixed on Yamada Dai, and then added:
"Furthermore, we came here specifically to purchase color current lines from your company. What you are selling is still second-hand equipment, and no one else has the right to criticize or object to it."
Therefore, such a transaction is both legal and compliant, and allows both parties to get what they need.
Of course, if your company insists on not accepting our proposal, then we have another option—find a suitable person to temporarily register a color TV company and then purchase a complete production line.
However, this could make the whole process take a long time, possibly several months.
During this period, a series of complicated procedures and formalities must be followed, and bankruptcy can be filed several months later.
However, we are determined to achieve this cooperation, but we hope Mr. Yamada will carefully consider the specific details.
Zhao Yuan calmly explained that this cooperation was mutually beneficial, and made it clear that he would give priority to cooperating with Furuta Corporation, but that he would not be unable to do without Furuta Corporation.
Upon hearing this, the Yamada brothers exchanged a glance, then temporarily left the meeting room. They discussed the matter in hushed tones outside for a while before returning.
Upon entering the conference room, Yamada, on behalf of his brothers, expressed their willingness to cooperate with the other party, but demanded a price as high as 5 million.
Zhao Yuan frowned slightly upon hearing this, and said in a deep voice:
"Mr. Yamada, as far as I know, your purchase of a brand new production line would cost no more than 8000 million US dollars, yet you've added more than 4 million to the price! Such an exorbitant price makes it hard to believe you're sincere in cooperating with us. In that case, there's no need for us to waste any more words; we'll have to find other partners."
After saying that, Zhao Yuan made a gesture as if he and Factory Director Gu Tiejun and his entourage were about to get up and leave.
When the Yamada brothers heard the price of the colored electric water line quoted by Zhao Yuan, they couldn't help but look astonished.
They knew in their hearts that their original plan to make a huge profit by deceiving others was probably not going to work, but faced with such a great opportunity to make a fortune by reselling, the Yamada brothers were really unwilling to let it go easily.
After all, as long as they can successfully earn this money, they can fill the current financial shortage that the company is facing.
"Mr. Gu, Mr. Zhao, please don't leave yet. Let us have some more time to discuss this."
Seeing that Zhao Yuan and the others were adamant, Yamada Dai quickly tried to persuade them to stay and reiterated his request for further negotiation.
"Mr. Gu, Mr. Zhao, please discuss your respective desired prices. If the conditions are suitable, it would be a great benefit for both of us to reach a cooperation agreement."
After discussion, Yamada Dai spoke first.
"Mr. Yamada, in my opinion, why don't you give us a quote first, so that we have a clear idea of how to make this cooperation possible?"
Zhao Yuan then responded.
After a moment's thought, Yamada Dai held up three fingers and slowly said:
"Then let's go for 3 million US dollars."
Upon hearing this number, Zhao Yuan frowned, a hint of displeasure appearing on his face. He retorted calmly but firmly:
"Mr. Yamada, if I may be so bold, your offer is really lacking in sincerity! You should know that we can easily inject foreign capital or entrust someone to register a brand new company in your country, and the minimum cost for this operation is only a few million US dollars."
If we choose to acquire those small factories in your country that are about to go bankrupt, the process will be even faster and should be cheaper. Then, purchasing a state-of-the-art production line would cost at most 8000 million US dollars.
After that, we only need to hold it for a few months before we can file for bankruptcy according to law, and then resell it to us. Even including all the complicated taxes and fees, it will definitely not exceed 1 million US dollars, which is easy to acquire.
Therefore, we cannot accept your proposed price of 3 million US dollars for this cooperation under any circumstances.
"Cooperating with us will be incredibly fast! You know, time is money! If we operate according to Mr. Zhao's method, it will take at least half a year. In those six months, you will be fully capable of producing a large number of color TVs."
Yamada Daiichi said with a serious expression.
"That's right. The reason we chose to cooperate with you is because of your speed. And to be honest, when we first came to the Sun Country, our original intention was to cooperate with you."
Therefore, after internal discussions, we have decided to prioritize cooperation with you.
However, if we cannot reach an agreement on the price, then I'm sorry, we will have to look for other partners.
Although this will take a few more days, you will eventually be able to find a suitable partner.
After all, this collaboration is just a simple transaction for you, yet it will quickly help your company solve its current financial problems.
Zhao Yuan responded clearly and logically.
Thus began a fierce, protracted negotiation between the two sides.
Amidst the back-and-forth exchanges and sharp retorts, the atmosphere fluctuated between tense and solemn, and at other times, it eased up slightly.
Finally, after a long and arduous negotiation, the two sides successfully finalized a transaction amount of 1.8 million US dollars.
They quickly signed the relevant contract, stipulating that the goods would be shipped within one month, and that 50% of the payment would be made in advance…
After signing the contract, Gu Tiehao's mood was as bright and cheerful as the sunshine in the sky.
Recalling when they first arrived in the Sun Country, the other party made outrageous demands, asking for a staggering $4 million, and that was just a pile of scrap metal; they almost fell for it.
However, he has now successfully acquired the latest production line for only $1.8 million, which is an incredibly good deal!
It is important to know that once this brand-new production line is shipped back to China and put into use, the color TVs produced will undoubtedly become the most advanced products in the country.
Its quality is comparable to those high-end color TVs imported from the United States, but it has a huge advantage in terms of price.
In this way, these color TVs will surely sell well in the domestic color TV market, bringing the company substantial profits and widespread reputation.
