Chapter 133 Obtaining Insider Prices
After hearing Zhao Yuan's idea, Gu Tiehao's eyes lit up, and he felt that the idea was very feasible.
So, he immediately said to Yamaguchi Honda:
"Then please take us back to the hotel first."
Afterwards, Yamaguchi Honda drove everyone back to the hotel. Upon arrival, Gu Tiehao, without even taking a moment's rest, immediately summoned everyone to the conference room for an emergency meeting.
"Comrade Zhaoyuan, please tell us your thoughts first."
Gu Tiehao said.
"I think the best solution right now is to use Furuta Corporation to purchase a set of the most advanced production line equipment available at the moment, and then have them resell it to us."
After all, due to technological barriers, it is difficult for us to directly purchase such a state-of-the-art production line.
Furuta Corporation was already in talks with us about color printing production lines, so even if they purchase another brand new production line, it won't arouse suspicion from other competitors in the industry.
After careful observation, it seems that Furuta Corporation is currently experiencing financial difficulties. That's why Yamada Dai said he plans to withdraw from the color TV market and sell us a new production line. As long as they are given sufficient profit margins, this is a good thing for Furuta Corporation. With this money, Furuta Corporation can revive itself in other industries.
In this way, the brand-new production line can be smoothly sent to us as a second-hand production line simply by passing through Furuta Co., Ltd.
In this way, we will be able to successfully have a leading-edge production line.
However, the key question we face now is: what strategies and methods should we adopt to obtain a relatively reasonable price for this new production line that satisfies both parties?
This undoubtedly requires us to think deeply, plan carefully, and make full use of various negotiation skills and market research data to achieve it.
Zhao Yuan said.
Subsequently, everyone focused their attention on this issue and engaged in a heated and in-depth discussion.
After some discussion and deliberation, everyone present unanimously agreed that this was undoubtedly a brilliant and wise decision.
Therefore, the most urgent task is to find out the exact amount that the Sun Kingdom needs to spend to purchase a complete set of brand-new color current lines. In this way, when negotiating prices with Furuta Corporation, we can be well-informed and have a clear target.
Following that, the group engaged in another discussion about how to obtain this crucial information.
Everyone firmly believed that the plan was feasible, and they actively racked their brains to find out the specific costs of a local company in the Sun Country purchasing a state-of-the-art color TV production line.
Soon, someone suggested that they could seek out acquaintances in the Sun Country within their respective social circles, hoping to obtain relevant important intelligence through them.
Persistence pays off! Finally, exciting news arrived – Lin Xuecheng, a classmate and close friend of Factory Director Gu Tiehao, was actually working in Japan. Even more coincidentally, this old classmate was employed by a well-known color TV company in Japan.
When Factory Director Gu Tiehao learned of this news, he was overjoyed.
He quickly contacted the other party through various channels. Lin Xuecheng, who was on the other end of the phone, readily agreed upon hearing that an old friend was there, and soon came to meet him.
The moment the two met, their warmth and camaraderie were palpable!
Gu Tiehao didn't beat around the bush and directly told Lin Xuecheng the real purpose of his trip to the Sun Country, and eagerly inquired about the price of the latest color television production line in the Sun Country.
Lin Xuecheng, with a joyful expression, excitedly said:
"Old classmate, what a coincidence! Our company just completed a complete upgrade of our production line in the first half of this year. As for the price, it's around 8000 million US dollars."
Upon hearing this news, Gu Tiehao and his companions were overjoyed, their faces beaming with undisguised happiness.
Gu Tiehao and Lin Xuecheng continued their conversation, reminiscing about the wonderful times they had spent together and sharing their experiences and stories over the years.
However, happy times are always fleeting. Lin Xuecheng had to rush back to the company to work overtime that evening, and although he was reluctant to leave, he had to say goodbye in a hurry.
Fortunately, this reunion was very fruitful for Gu Tiehao and his team, as they successfully obtained such valuable inside information.
After Lin Xuecheng left, Gu Tiehao immediately convened an emergency meeting with everyone again.
At the meeting, everyone had a heated discussion about the negotiations that would take place with Furuta Corporation the next day, racking their brains to figure out how to keep the initiative in the negotiations firmly in their own hands.
After careful consideration and heated debate, a series of effective coping strategies were finally discussed and agreed upon.
With the plan finalized, Gu Tiehao acted decisively, immediately instructing Wang Hui to contact Yamaguchi Honda and successfully arrange a specific time and place for further discussions with Furuta Corporation the following day.
Everything is ready, just waiting to show off our skills tomorrow!
Everyone here is separately preparing to start negotiations and discussions with Furuta Co., Ltd. regarding cooperation matters.
The next morning, sunlight filtered through the thin clouds, falling gently onto the ground and draping the city in a golden veil.
Yamaguchi Honda led Zhao Yuan and the rest of the group, heading towards Furuta Corporation in a grand procession.
This time, after careful consideration and a democratic vote, everyone unanimously elected Zhaoyuan as their representative to conduct crucial negotiations with Yamada.
The atmosphere instantly became heavy when they stepped into the spacious and bright conference room of Furuta Corporation.
Zhao Yuan took a deep breath, calmly sat down opposite Yamada Dai, and began to explain his meticulously planned new cooperation proposal.
However, upon hearing Zhao Yuan's new method, Yamada Daiichi shook his head without hesitation and resolutely refused, saying, "No! Absolutely not!"
Faced with such a resolute response, Zhao Yuan showed no sign of backing down.
He smiled slightly and continued calmly:
"Mr. Yamada, please don't be so quick to deny it. This deal is undoubtedly a win-win situation for both of us."
First, through this cooperation method, your company can obtain a considerable intermediary fee.
I believe that this funding is enough to turn your company's current predicament around and bring it back to life.
Moreover, with this funding, your company is fully capable of making a name for itself in new fields.
