Chapter 733 Turn an enemy into a friend, you think too much
The soothing music, soft lights, and various desserts and delicacies that were constantly being served made this cocktail party look very high-end.
But at this time, not many people cared about the things carefully prepared by the host of the reception.
Because what many people care about is what happens next.
Li Qingbo followed Shen Lin. He had an invitation letter and brought Sister Dan as his temporary female companion, hoping to lend a helping hand at any time.
Unfortunately, just when he came in a few minutes behind on purpose, the matter was already over. The drinking party was just a drinking party, nothing happened and everything was safe and sound.
No, it should be said that what is supposed to happen has already been completed, and all that is left is the drinking party.
Li Qingbo, who had already made up his mind not to drink alcohol this time, finally got a glass of red wine under Shen Lin's encouragement, and then talked to a few acquaintances he still knew.
Of course, these chat topics inevitably fell on Shen Lin.
As for his female companion, Sister Dan, after finding out that nothing happened, she ran to Mi Yuan's side and quietly discussed the cocktail party with Mi Yuan.
In Sister Dan’s opinion, this cocktail party is really worth it!
Not only did it broaden my horizons, but I was also able to taste a lot of good things I had never seen before. After I returned, I had one more enviable experience.
But she didn't know that although there was gentleness flashing in Mi Yuan's eyes, Mi Yuan was already depressed and had no interest at all at this time!
What Mi Yuan wants at this moment is to still be by that person's side silently, and to still have the peace and warmth of being tightly intertwined with him.
It's a pity that Sister Dan didn't notice Mi Yuan's worries at all, she just took her best friend and talked and laughed again and again.
Mi Yuan's eyes were wandering, but the focus still stayed on Shen Lin.
When she held his hand just now, she didn't know what kind of smell was emanating from his body. But as soon as she smelled that smell, every tiny nerve in her body would burn and agitate. The smell was faint. It's light, as refreshing as grapefruit, and as intoxicating as musk.
She stared at him silently for a long time. At this moment, although this man was among a group of foreigners, he was still graceful and everything revolved around him.
In fact, Mi Yuan's feeling was not wrong. As Takeda Ichiro withdrew because his head was buzzing, the reception at this time was already dominated by Shen Lin.
Including Hyun Bin, the temporary host, only acted as a general manager at this time, and he was more of a waiter and served tea and water to everyone.
"Dear Shen, your ability to break the situation is really admirable." Watson came to Shen Lin's side and said with a smile.
Now that Lavro was able to run to Shen Lin and talk, Watson finally let go of his reserve.
Anyway, the two sides can be regarded as partners. He ran to Shen Lin and talked to Shen Lin, and it seemed that he didn't violate anyone's taboos.
Shen Lin drank a drink with Watson and said, "Mr. Watson, I actually didn't work hard on this matter."
"You know that when the flood comes with overwhelming force, no matter how strong the dike is, it can't stop it. What's more, this is a dike that is already riddled with holes!"
After hearing Shen Lin's metaphor, Watson pondered for a moment, and finally nodded: "Mr. Shen, your metaphor is correct. Their dam is already riddled with holes."
"However, you can find the gap in the dam in time, which is also difficult for ordinary people to do."
Just when Watson was complimenting Shen Lin, Taijin had already walked over. He smiled and raised his glass to Watson and said: "Dear Mr. Watson, I hope to talk to Mr. Shen alone. No." Is it convenient for you?"
Of course it’s inconvenient for me!
Watson, who was very unhappy, knew very well that what Taijin was talking about should be business, and it was business that had nothing to do with him.
But at this moment, he really didn't want to leave. He wanted to hear what they were talking about this time.
But in the end, under Tai Jinde's somewhat contemptuous gaze, he still smiled and said: "Okay, I'll take my leave now. I hope you two have a pleasant exchange."
Shen Lin didn't pay much attention to Watson's departure. He shook the red wine glass in his hand and looked at Taijin calmly without speaking at all.
"Dear Mr. Shen, we are all businessmen. We should know that in the field of businessmen, there are only eternal interests and no absolute friends." Tai Jin's expression was extremely calm. When he approached Shen Lin, he had already said I thought of what to say.
Shen Lin looked at Taijin's expression and said calmly: "Maybe Mr. Taijin is right, but I haven't practiced enough. So far, I haven't reached your level."
"In my eyes, it is difficult to turn enemies into friends."
Tai Jin was choked up and speechless by Shen Lin's words. He knew very well that this was Shen Lin's counterattack against his words.
What he just said actually meant to seek peace, but Shen Lin said he would not accept it.
It was really too much to deceive others, but Shen Lin had to get the patent for using LED energy-saving lamps.
After all, when those small electrical companies launch new products, they, as industry giants, do not. The profit is only a small aspect, but mainly it will have a big impact on their reputation.
Since the siege fails, the only option is to join.
"Dear Mr. Shen, we all move from youth to maturity. I believe that Mr. Shen can also take this step."
"As a rational entrepreneur, the most important thing is to be able to distinguish who can bring him more benefits."
Taijin said with a smile: "And I hope to be the person who brings you this benefit."
Shen Lin had no intention of beating around the bush with Tai Jin. He stretched out a finger and said, "One point and a half dollars!"
Hearing these words, Tai Jin was stunned for a moment. He stared at Shen Lin closely and said, "Director Shen, what do you mean?"
"What I mean is that if you want to license it, the price for your patent license is US$1.50 per piece." Shen Lin said calmly but resolutely.
One point and a half dollars!
It is one-third higher than when the negotiation started. This one-third may seem very small, but it is calculated on a case-by-case basis.
Once the number rises, it will be a very scary number.
"Dear Shen, as far as I know, the price you gave Mr. Redina for them was fifty cents. Isn't it too high that you gave us such a high price..." Tai Jin didn't say the next words, but the meaning behind them was , he believed Shen Lin understood.
Shen Lin naturally understood. He looked at Tai Jin who looked unacceptable and said calmly: "Mr. Tai Jin, you can refuse."
"To be honest, I don't necessarily have to cooperate with you, what do you think?"
"I don't have enough money, but it's enough for me to spend and for my company, so I don't have to because your money makes me feel bad."
"Have you ever heard of a saying? If you don't have money, you will accept your fate, but if you have money, you will be willful. Now, you can classify me into this category."
Taijin looked at the smiling Shen Lin and really wanted to curse, but he couldn't because at this time, he was in a weak position.
He hopes to be able to purchase the patent. If he cannot purchase it, then their company's losses will be even greater!
