Chapter 1027: Reverse Adjustment
The President's secretary sat on the sofa in the hotel lobby, and the hotel waiter brought him a glass of ice water.
In the Xiang Yalan region, for about ten months of the year, it is in a sultry environment, so people love ice water.
It is not just President Diego who likes ice juice, most people in the Xiang Yalan region, as long as they can afford ice juice or enjoy ice cubes, they will choose to drink ice water.
Even in winter, the temperature in the Republic of Jede is only about ten degrees, but ice water is still the choice of most people.
He held a newspaper in his hand, *News Daily*, a relatively authoritative official newspaper in the Republic of Jede, which published quite a few official news.
Even he, the secretary of the President, could not possibly know everything that happened every day.
Reading the newspaper became an important way for him to get these news.
When he saw that in the second half of this year, because of the increase in foreign investment, mainly federal investors began to frequently invest in various projects.
The overall economy of the Republic of Jede showed obvious growth, very obvious.
They compared the economic growth of the third and fourth quarters of the past five years. The third and fourth quarters of last year can be said to be the two quarters with the fastest growth in the history of the Republic of Jede.
The reporter who wrote this news thinks this is a very good performance. As the center of world capitalism, the recognition of federal investors is equivalent to the recognition of capital.
This will bring more effective and valuable investment projects.
He cited this point in the article, for example, several federal investors brought some light industrial technology, filling the gap in this part of the Republic of Jede, and achieved a huge leap from "nothing to something" in local production!
There are quite a few such investment projects.
Not everyone came with money, quite a few came with technology. This reporter thinks that compared to capital investment, the authorities of the Republic of Jede should pay more attention to those technical investments.
Money, as long as there are people, as long as people can continue to multiply, there will definitely be countless people, which means countless wealth will slowly show up in the future.
But technology, having it is having it, not having it is not having it. Even if some technologies seem to be lagging behind in the federal industrial system, here, in the Republic of Jede, it is still a leading technology.
These technologies are what the Republic of Jede currently needs for development, whether it is economy, or local technology and industrial accumulation, all need these things.
However, the writer of this article, this reporter, also gave a reminder.
As many federal investors enter the Republic of Jede to seek opportunities, some federal "poor people" and "liars" have also come to the Republic of Jede.
They have already implemented quite a few scams, cheating away quite a bit of people's wealth.
It is necessary to maintain a high degree of enthusiasm for federal investors, let them be willing to land funds and technology, and also be vigilant about all their actions to avoid being deceived by them again.
Seeing this, the President's secretary nodded. This report was written very well.
There is no naked flattery of federal investors in some second-rate newspapers, as if with these federal people, the Republic of Jede could achieve economic take-off.
In their mouths, federal people are angels sent by God to help the Republic of Jede, but in fact, federal people are a hungry wolf.
It is hungry and is peeking at this piece of the fattest meat in Xiang Yalan!
In any country, there will be some sober, rational people who look at this society, but there are more ordinary people who can only see the superficial surface.
The elevator bell suddenly "dinged," very crisp, and the gold-plated elevator door was opened by the elevator attendant. A very fashionable young girl walked out of it.
Her dress is very "federalized," because the arrival of federal investors also brought a lot of federal culture and books, including some fashion magazines.
People's inherent nature of admiring the strong was stimulated without them noticing it themselves.
They are very keen on buying federal magazines, and then imitating federal fashion based on the content in the magazines.
For example, it is like... the President's secretary's eyes lit up, this girl is a typical "federal modern girl," and of course, add a "imitator" behind it.
However, they will call these girls "modern girls," abbreviating the word "federal."
These girls are very famous in the Republic of Jede, but the good and bad are mixed.
The girl who walked out of the elevator just got a beating from Shi Misi the engineer. She now feels her legs are soft when walking. If it weren't for Shi Misi the engineer needing to go to work, she would rather stay on that bed, no matter what he did!
In the heart of this girl, as long as it is a federal person, a foreigner, the one with hair on his body is like an ape that is closer to humans or a human who has degenerated, she will like it very much.
It seems that by injecting the freedom from the federation into her body through such a way, she can also become a federal person who is free inside!
When she felt a gurgling heat flow, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the President's secretary sitting on the sofa with bright eyes looking at her.
She didn't know this young man, but she didn't like this young man, because his body radiated the rotten and boring taste of the Republic of Jede.
She rolled her eyes at the President's secretary with a slightly disdainful and impatient expression, and took the initiative to pull the low-cut front up, for fear that exposing more flesh would be taken advantage of by this poor local who could only drink ice water in the hotel.
She seemed to ignore that not long ago, a guy she didn't know, but heard was a federal person, almost saw her naked, and she didn't feel any shame or embarrassment, but generously stretched her body, as if telling the other party that she was in heat, she needed infusion.
The President's secretary, who was rolled eyes for no reason, shook his head with a smile. He was not angry. This situation is increasing now.
These young men and women without any ability to distinguish always feel that the federation is the future. This may be related to the movies they played when they exchanged culture with the federation before.
They described themselves as great heroes who saved the world. If it weren't for them, the Dantela people would have stolen the safety of the whole world and become evil rulers, riding on everyone's head.
They used a large amount of content that could not distinguish between true and false to promote the various advantages and benefits of the federation. Now the authorities have reacted and are reducing the number of cultural exchanges, and at the same time, the censorship of exchanged cultural works has become much greater.
He doesn't know what will happen if this continues, but he knows that if most people, and they are all those young people, like the federation more than the Republic of Jede, that is definitely a disaster.
The President's secretary folded the newspaper. He had no mood to continue reading. The arrival of federal people brought too much chaos to this country. Sometimes he admired the President very much.
Under such bad circumstances, he still insisted, making him also have an impulse to dedicate everything to the country!
After about ten minutes, Shi Misi the engineer and his partner came out of the elevator. The President's secretary immediately stood up and greeted them with a smile.
His intention was to shake hands with Shi Misi the engineer, but the other party gave him a hug unexpectedly, and he could only respond inexplicably.
"You...", he wanted to ask what happened, but didn't ask.
Shi Misi the engineer was an "honest man." "You can come to find me, which means you accepted my offer."
"Isn't this good news for me?"
"I will get some profits, and the continuous dividends in the future. I am very excited now!"
The President's secretary seemed to accept his statement and invited him to leave with a smile. "We have prepared in other places, everyone wants to talk to you again before paying this money."
"You know, this is 50 million after all, which is not a small number for us!"
After all, their foreign exchange is already very tight now, and withdrawing this 50 million federal Sol will affect the foreign exchange reserves of the entire Republic of Jede more or less.
Once any huge thing that needs external support happens, their foreign exchange may not be enough!
Shi Misi the engineer also looked very open-minded. "Of course, of course, I don't think this is an offense."
"Then... shall we go now?"
"I hope to get this done as soon as possible, don't let it drag on."
He fanned with his hand. "I'm already a bit bored."
The President's secretary said with a smile, "Exactly, me too."
Then he welcomed the two onto the President's special car and came to a very beautiful river bend in the suburbs of the capital.
The President built a manor here. On the main building of the manor, he could overlook most of the city and see the river at his feet, which was not turbulent, but definitely not calm, hitting the rock on both sides of the river channel in the river bend.
It has a unique flavor.
Soon they sat on both sides of the negotiating table separately. After everyone sat down, the President's secretary, as the main negotiator for this negotiation, was naturally responsible for most of the content.
"Engineer Shi Misi, we have in principle agreed to obtain these two production lines through your way."
"But the price... we feel it should be adjusted again."
"The current price is too unreasonable!"
Selling things less than 7 million for 50 million?
Is there anything blacker than this?
He thought Shi Misi the engineer would object, but he didn't expect the other party to nod constantly. "I think so too."
A defense official responsible for accompanying the talk smiled and said, "It's really great that you can think so. It seems that our negotiation this time will be very smooth, at least we have the same purpose on the same problem."
The President's secretary also nodded. "It is indeed like this. I have a premonition that we will complete this negotiation very soon, and both of us will be satisfied!"
Shi Misi the engineer kept this smile that was a bit... wrong-tasting and looked at them. "You might have misunderstood one thing."
"The price I said needs to be adjusted, not downward, but upward."
He was still the same playful and arrogant look, but anyone could see the playfulness and arrogance on his face at this time. "You don't trust me, which makes me feel very hurt. Now their offer is 60 million."
The President's secretary was stunned for a moment and raised his hand, but didn't slap the table, but pressed his face seriously on the table and almost stood up. "I don't understand!"
"You understand!" Shi Misi the engineer topped a sentence very toughly.
"If you only talked to me from the beginning, and you were dissatisfied with the price, maybe we could discuss it again."
"But you turned around and contacted the group company through domestic methods, wanting to bypass me and buy directly from their hands. You have seriously hurt my feelings!"
"I feel very uncomfortable. Your attitude makes me feel that if I maintain the original price, it is an insult to myself."
"So, now its offer is 60 million."
The President's secretary took a deep breath. He slowly sat back. "Engineer Shi Misi, it was you who said it, we can inquire."
Shi Misi the engineer did not deny it. "Indeed, indeed it was me who said it, but I didn't let you buy it, I just let you inquire about the price, but you thought about buying them back directly."
"It was you who didn't have contract spirit first. Even if you refused my offer and then did so, I wouldn't be so angry."
"But you hung me on one side, and tried to buy from places other than me on the other side. Now you can't buy it, and you think of me again."
"Why?"
"Am I so worthless?"
Looking at Shi Misi the engineer's almost unreasonable attitude, the President's secretary's expression changed from red to white, and from white to red. After more than ten seconds, he stood up and bowed to Shi Misi the engineer. "I apologize to you for my decision, Engineer Shi Misi. These are all my personal decisions. I feel ashamed for this and apologize to you."
Shi Misi the engineer shook his head. "I accept your apology, but the price will not change. If an apology and a bow can make me want less than 10 million, then I also bow to you. Can I want more than 10 million?"
The President's secretary rarely saw such a shameless and rogue person, but the other party mastered the most critical and core things of the entire plan.
What's more troublesome is that the entire project has been half-way through now. They spent more than 10 million to build that factory that the architect felt was unreasonable.
Even if they don't continue to promote this project now, it means that the construction costs and some public relations costs invested in the early stage, including the compensation fees paid to the two companies, etc., may also have quite a bit of money, all gone to waste.
So much foreign exchange went to waste, the cost is too great, he can't be the master, no one in this room can be the master.
Shi Misi the engineer watched the President's secretary's face turn red and white, white and red. His tone suddenly softened.
"I tell you the truth, the fact that you inquired everywhere about whether you could buy bullet production lines has been exposed in the eyes of some people."
"You also attracted the attention of some departments in the federation, which made the difficulty of transporting them out of the federation increase a lot, and there are more key channels that need to be cleared."
"On the military industrial group side, I need to let people shut up, change the two production lines from 'inventory' to 'scrap' and 'destruction', and then I need to let some congressmen who can decide the final direction of this matter see it selectively."
"Next, I still have to deal with those greedy hyenas at customs. Once they randomly inspect our containers, it means our losses will be enormous."
"So, to shut their mouths, we must ensure it is one hundred percent impossible for them to randomly inspect these things."
"There may be a need for help from other people here. After all, I don't know congressmen. These all need money!"
"I tell you the truth."
"I only made 2 million from this business, and the two of us shared it. Other money didn't fall into our hands."
"Because you inquired everywhere, let some people pay attention to this place, so these people need extra fees to let them keep silent."
"If you think the offer I gave you is unreasonable, you can try someone else."
It sounds... like it makes sense, but the President's secretary knows that even if what he said is true, it definitely won't be 60 million.
What the hell needs so much money for public relations?
But at this moment, he couldn't refute, because Shi Misi the engineer "again" said, if it doesn't work, you can try someone else.
He believes that as long as he goes to someone else, the return may not be 60 million, it is 70 million, 80 million, or even more!
He could only show a face of negotiation. "Our foreign exchange is really not much. If you can accept Lari payment, I can agree to this matter."
According to the official exchange rate, 60 million federal Sol should be 600 million, but in fact, 60 million federal Sol can exchange for about 800 million, which means they saved some.
Shi Misi the engineer shook his head. "This is impossible. Although I live in the Republic of Jede now, it doesn't mean I will always live here."
"It must be paid in federal Sol, and have you considered a problem?"
"How do I convince those people in the federation to accept Lari, which they can't use at all and the federal domestic bank doesn't think has value, instead of federal Sol?"
The President's secretary sighed. He knew that this negotiation was really hard to talk about, because it was all passive.
This is not a game, it is all passive and just A over.
This is a business negotiation, a business negotiation with political nature. The result of being passive is that they can only "obey" the other party's requirements, not "talk" and "judge."
Since this money cannot be changed, the President's secretary put his idea on supporting services.
"I will report this new price to the President, but since we paid so much money, can we add some small requirements to the original plan?"
"For example...", he glanced at the weapon designer beside Shi Misi the engineer, "design a new weapon with us?" ===== CHAPTER 1028 =====
