"Lin, tell me, what's your ideal price? Negotiations always come and go." Hester made his first concession.

Any negotiation expert knows that there are only zero and countless concessions in negotiations.

In the first round, Lin Zhiyuan won completely.

Lin Zhiyuan showed a victorious smile, "Mr. Hurst, twenty dollars per ton, this is our bottom line."

"Twenty dollars, that's impossible. That was the price a few years ago!" Hester stood up eagerly, leaned forward, and stared at Lin Zhiyuan with his two taupe-brown eyes.

Lin Zhiyuan sat peacefully and smiled at Hester with a leisurely smile, "Mr. Hester, why don't you ask me how many tons of iron ore I plan to buy this time?"

Hester gritted his teeth and replied: "What difference does it make? This price of twenty dollars per ton is not profitable for us."

"Mr. Hester, there is no need to be modest. With the production capacity of Lituo Group, your mining cost will not exceed fourteen US dollars per ton at most. Am I right?"

Hester was stunned and became even more angry, "Lin, you are so cunning. You actually investigated our production costs so clearly. Please tell me honestly, have you planted a commercial spy in our group?"

Lin Zhiyuan raised his head and laughed, "Mr. Hurst, is this necessary? I have been working in the steel company since I graduated from college. Our leather steel company also has its own mines. I know the whole process of iron ore mining. In addition, I have been to Vale and the mines of Biho. Is the production cost a secret to me?"

Heston slumped back into his chair and gritted his teeth: "Lin, you are a devil. The board of directors will not agree to this price."

"No, they will agree. At twenty dollars per ton, you will still make money. If you don't sell it to me, you will have no choice but to suspend production and lay off employees. The company's stock price will plummet, and the assets of all shareholders will shrink significantly. I believe the board of directors All members can recognize the pros and cons.”

Hester gasped and gasped, "Okay, now tell me, how many tons is your procurement target this time?"

Lin Zhiyuan made a seven-digit gesture, "Seventy million tons, of course, it is impossible to purchase them all from Lituo. After all, I came to Australia this time at the invitation of BHP, and they paid all of our expenses." When it comes to travel expenses, we Chinese people have always been very particular about integrity, and we will eventually have to buy some from them, but how this share will be allocated depends on the sincerity of the two of you."

"I don't think Biho will agree to the price you gave?"

"No, Mr. Hester, they will agree. Their situation is the same as yours." Lin Zhiyuan sat there calmly, as if he had everything under control.

Hester was in sharp contrast to him. He looked haggard and exhausted. "Lin, I can't answer you right away. I have to report to the board of directors."

Lin Zhiyuan stood up, "Of course, Mr. Hester, I am waiting for your good news, but I want to remind you that I hope you will be faster, because I believe that representatives of Bihe are now looking for me all over the world."

Hu Qingxiang waited at the door of Lituo Group for a whole morning. Just when his patience was gone, a familiar figure finally walked out of Lituo's door.

Hu Qingxiang's eyes widened, and his upper and lower rows of teeth gritted loudly.

He saw Lin Zhiyuan and Hester shaking hands and saying goodbye.

Because he was so angry, he didn't even see clearly the ugly expression on Hester's face.

Hu Qingxiang said something in his mind, Lin Zhiyuan, are you playing the art of war with me?

You took advantage of the competitive relationship between Li Tuo and Bi He to play a snipe-clam fight, and the fisherman benefited. Then, behind my back, you built a plank road openly and used it secretly.

Sure enough, everyone is from China and knows the other party's methods clearly.

Hu Qingxiang watched Lin Zhiyuan get into the car with the negotiation team.

He did not get angry on the spot, but suppressed his anger, drove his car, and followed them back to the hotel.

Hu Qingxiang is indeed a top student who graduated from Yan University. Even though he was full of anger, he still suppressed it rationally.

He followed Lin Zhiyuan all the way upstairs. The moment Lin Zhiyuan was about to close the door, he rushed forward and squeezed in.

Lin Zhiyuan turned around and saw Hu Qingxiang who was about to go berserk. He smiled, and his smile was meaningful.

"Representative Hu, you did not disappoint me."

Hu Qingxiang's face was livid, and he squeezed out a sentence through his teeth, "Mr. Lin, but you have disappointed me."

Both of them knew the other's true thoughts after just one sentence.

Lin Zhiyuan looked at Hu Qingxiang's thin and withered body, "Are you prepared to use violence to solve the problem?"

Hu Qingxiang looked at Lin Zhiyuan, who was over 1.8 meters tall and strong, and subconsciously took a step back.

"My education and quality don't allow me to do this, but if possible, I really want to teach you a lesson." Hu Qingxiang said these words righteously, but Lin Zhiyuan could hear his harsh expression but inner pity.

Lin Zhiyuan turned around, ignored him, walked straight to the sofa, sat down firmly, crossed his legs, and looked at Hu Qingxiang calmly.

Hu Qingxiang felt that standing in front of Lin Zhiyuan, he was like a primary school student about to be criticized. He was a head shorter in terms of momentum, so he also sat down.

As soon as he sat down, he couldn't wait to condemn Lin Zhiyuan from the moral high ground, "Mr. Lin, what you have done has really discredited us Chinese people, betrayed your trust, and has no spirit of contract at all."

"Haha!" Lin Zhiyuan looked up to the sky and laughed, "Representative Hu, this is the funniest joke I have heard in the past few days. You can actually say such a thing."

Lin Zhiyuan's eyes were gleaming and he stared at Hu Qingxiang, "Representative Hu, I have tried my best to seek benefits for Chinese companies, so how can I discredit the Chinese people? When our negotiations reached an impasse, I contacted other mining companies and talked with What does the spirit of contract have to do with it?”

"You..." Hu Qingxiang was not good at words, and was rendered speechless by Lin Zhiyuan's rhetorical question.

Lin Zhiyuan had no intention of letting him go, and pressed forward step by step, "It's you, Representative Hu. Is what you do worthy of your skin color and the blood flowing in your veins?"

Hu Qingxiang felt guilty, but he still argued, "Mr. Lin, as the trade representative of Bihe Company, I safeguard the interests of the company. This is a reflection of professionalism."

"Yes, as an employee of Behe ​​Company, you have done a good job, but as a Chinese, you have betrayed your motherland, the hometown and people who raised you."

"You are talking nonsense. This is a false accusation." Hu Qingxiang jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on.

"Representative Hu, don't think that others don't know what you do. Let me ask you, you have been collecting production data from several steel companies since last year. Can you tell me the purpose of doing this?" Lin Zhiyuan said. , the sword points at the heart of the people.
