Volume One: Stormy Storm Chapter 291 Wu Yawei’s Little Calculation “But what’s the use of this to me?” Dampier said bluntly, “Wu, do you think that if I reject Ms. Xu’s request, I can only insist on it?
Will Mr. Zhu agree to cooperate according to our conditions?"
"I'm afraid this is not good." Wu Yawei said, "In China, you still have to be balanced when doing things. If you are too unwilling to give Director Xu face, this matter may really not be discussed."
Dampier sneered: "I don't care. If the negotiation fails, forget it. It won't bring us any losses."
Wu Yawei didn't dare to answer his words, but just said with a smile: "Actually, there are some other ways."
"What can I do?"
"We can make some terms more vague, or add some preconditions, such as 'under conditions deemed appropriate by both parties.' At that time, if the conditions on Maohua Machinery's side are not mature, it is unreasonable for you to reject their proposal.
The requirements are well founded.
"As for the Mao Chemical Machinery or the Chemical Industry Department, if there are any opinions, the two sides can continue to discuss it. By then, everyone's time will not be as tight as now."
When he said this, Wu Yawei glanced at Dampier.
Dampier was slightly startled, then burst into laughter. While laughing, he gave Wu Yawei a thumbs up and said, "Wu, I really admire your wisdom."
Undoubtedly, Wu Yawei's subtext is that Dampier can pretend to agree to China's request first, and when the signing is completed and the two parties begin formal cooperation, the Odin factory can just find some faults to delay the start time of Chinese workers stipulated in the contract.
.
As for whether this delay will cause dissatisfaction with the Mao Chemical Machinery and the Department of Chemical Industry, Wu Yawei also gave a solution, which is wrangling. This kind of wrangling is very time-consuming, and it is not surprising that it lasts for a year and a half.
"This is not wisdom, it's just the way Chinese people do things." Wu Yawei was quite modest, "No way, the Chinese are just like this, they waste too much time on these unnecessary things, that's why they are so backward.
China has so much to learn from the United States."
Dampier showed an arrogant smile and said: "Yes, I really don't like the way your officials do things. However, Wu, you are completely different from them. You are a very good person. I think it is best to communicate with you."
A pleasant thing.”
This was what Wu Yawei was waiting for. When he heard Dampier say this, instead of showing any joy, he sighed softly and said: "Mr. Dampier, I also like working with you very much. However, it is a pity.
, after you sign the contract with the Chemical Industry Department, my work will be completed and I will go back to the Provincial Economic Commission.
"In the future, you will be working with Factory Director Guo and Chief Engineer Yang of Maohua Machinery... Of course, they are both very experienced, and I think you will have a happy cooperation."
If it were Valance, he probably wouldn't be able to hear the hint in Wu Yawei's words. But Dampier is a workplace gangster, has come into contact with all kinds of people, and is used to intrigues.
Just now, while chatting with Wu Yawei, he was thinking about Wu Yawei's purpose. Yes, Wu Yawei must be sent by the government as a lobbyist, but his words were clearly biased towards his side. This was not the case.
This is not the official position, but it has its own little calculation.
So, what is Wu Yawei's little calculation?
These few words just now revealed his intentions. How could Dampier not know what he should do?
"Mr. Wu, if possible, I would rather work with you in the future in China than Guo and Yang. I think their thinking is too backward." Dampier extended an olive branch.
"How is this possible?" Wu Yawei looked panicked, "Director Guo's job is just that. Chief Engineer Yang is in charge of technology. I know nothing about technology. How can I replace Chief Engineer Yang?"
"Yes, although Yang is a bit paranoid, he still has some technical skills. I don't want him to be replaced. However, if Mr. Wu can replace Guo, I think it will be beneficial to our future cooperation.
It’s beneficial.”
"The factory director of Maohua Chemical Machinery is at the deputy department level, and I am only at the department level..." Wu Yawei said slowly.
Zhang Wei was sweating profusely, searching for words to express the differences in administrative levels. However, Dampier finally understood, and even heard the thoughts that Wu Yawei did not say.
"Wu, I have decided that in tomorrow's negotiation, I will agree to some of your conditions. However, I want to add one more condition, that is, your superiors must arrange for you to serve as the Chinese director of the joint venture factory." Dampier said confidently.
.
Dampier's words are not to flatter Wu Yawei, but he really hopes that Wu Yawei can become the Chinese director of the joint venture factory. Wu Yawei is a charming person, and he is completely obedient and loyal to Dampier.
. Let Wu Yawei be the director of the Chinese factory. Dampier basically has the final say on matters in this joint venture.
At that time, how will he arrange the Chinese workers? Isn’t it just a matter of one sentence?
"This is not appropriate." Wu Yawei said with a blushing face, "Mr. Dampier, we are friends, but I don't want our relationship to affect the overall situation of the negotiations."
Dampier said seriously: "No, I don't think this will affect the overall situation of the negotiations. On the contrary, I think it will be beneficial to the negotiations."
"Really? If that's the case, then I will make some sacrifices for the sake of cooperation between the two parties." Wu Yawei said resolutely, as if he was being forced to go through fire and water.
When he came out of the hotel and walked to the bus stop, Zhang Wei was silent for a while, and then timidly asked Wu Yawei: "Uncle Wu, are there any problems with what you just talked about with Mr. Dampier?"
"What's the problem?" Wu Yawei asked, and then replied, "I was sent by the leader to do work for Dampier. Foreigners are straightforward and don't like to talk in circles. If I don't explain it clearly to him, how can he agree?
Accept our terms?"
"I mean..." Zhang Wei finally swallowed his words halfway.
His experience was not enough to understand the transaction between Wu Yawei and Dampier. He just instinctively felt that something was not right between them.
However, if I recall it carefully, I can't seem to find any flaws.
Finally, it was the foreign guest who took the initiative to ask Uncle Wu to be the director of the joint venture. Didn't Uncle Wu refuse once?
Is it more appropriate to give in and give in three times?
No, Uncle Wu said, foreign guests are very straightforward. Maybe they won't like our method of making three concessions and three concessions.
Well, these things are not what I need to care about for the time being. Anyway, I still learned a lot tonight, and I also drank the legendary Coke.
Well, it tastes good. When will Chinese people be able to drink Coke every day?
