Faced with Romania's tender, Germany's Siemens was the first to arrive because of the distance. After they arrived in Romania, they approached Hersmann, a former employee of the company who is now an adviser to the crown prince.
"Mr. Hersmann, as a former colleague, do you know if you can give us any good suggestions in this bidding? We will be extremely grateful." Dika Schert, deputy general manager of Siemens this time, led the team.
asked Hersman after meeting him.
"I'm just a consultant. I don't have anything to suggest to you. If you definitely need advice, it's about cost-effectiveness." As a consultant, Hersman clearly knew his own problems when faced with questions from his former company vice president.
Positioning. The decision-making power for Romania’s bidding this time is in the hands of Crown Prince Edel. As a small consultant, it is better not to interrupt. Hersman still cherishes the friendship of the Crown Prince.
When Deckard Schulte saw Hersmann, he was unwilling to exert his influence on Siemens and said nothing more. This was just an inconspicuous one among Deckard Schulte's many choices. The best choice was Germany.
Ambassador Baslob.
After Borges, the former German ambassador, returned to his country for promotion last year due to his performance, Baslob took over the position, which left a good impression on the Kaiser. After Baslob's humbly asking for advice, Borge was ready to return to his country.
Si, he shared his knowledge of Romania with his successor. At the same time, he reminded him that Crown Prince Eder is a key figure who cannot be avoided in Romania.
After meeting Hersmann, Deckard Stern went to visit the German Embassy. Deckard Sutter came to the embassy on Provisley Street. The German Embassy was opened in 1877.
A three-story building was built. There was a warehouse behind the building, which was now converted into an office space. It was originally built by a businessman as a place for office and inventory. Later, the businessman went bankrupt and was bought by the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Come down and use it as an embassy.
Ambassador Baslob has long been waiting for the arrival of Deckard Salt in the embassy.
"Good afternoon, Your Excellency, Ambassador." Deckard Salt greeted Ambassador Baslob after seeing him.
"Hello Mr. Salter, nice to see you in Romania." Ambassador Baslob said in response.
After greeting each other, Dika Stern told the purpose of his visit. Ambassador Baslob had long known that the vice president of Siemens was here for the Romanian power order. He had also been working for the Crown Prince before.
Big applause. Now he has the obligation to win this order for the German company. Of course, it would be better if Siemens could be more sensible.
Thinking of this, Ambassador Baslobop thought for a while and said, "Mr. Stern, it is our embassy's obligation to win orders for German companies. However, after all, you need to make an appointment in advance to meet the Crown Prince. Plus, I have been here for a few days."
, I need to be very busy with the finishing work of the payment construction, do you think you can wait a few days?"
Dika Salter is not an idiot to be the vice president. He immediately understood that the ambassador did not want to work in vain. They had not planned to let the ambassador work in vain before, but they did not expect that Ambassador Baslob was a little impatient. Thinking of what they had seen before
Regarding the information about this ambassador, Baslob was known to have a reputation for misconduct in the diplomatic system. If he had not had an important minister standing behind him, he would not have been able to get this easy position.
After understanding what Mr. Ambassador meant, Dika Stern said directly. "Mr. Ambassador, I wonder if you are free tonight? I would like to treat you to some specialties from my hometown in Germany."
Deckard Salt emphasized the word 'specialty'. Ambassador Baslob's eyes lit up, and he clearly understood what Deckard Stewart meant.
"It's been a long time since I tasted the taste of my hometown. I will definitely come over tonight." The Ambassador said, completely ignoring the fact that he had eaten German sausages and drank Munich beer for lunch.
The satisfied ambassador stood in front of Edel the next day and asked the crown prince to consider the role of German relations, hoping to leave this order to German companies.
"Mr. Ambassador, I can understand that you are working for a German company, but this is a business behavior. After all, I am the crown prince of Romania and I need to be responsible to the Romanians. I cannot guarantee that Germany will definitely get this order. Considering that our country and Germany
Good relationship, I can only say that if the performance and price are consistent, I will give priority to German companies."
Faced with Ambassador Baslob's request, Edel said it after thinking about it again and again. After receiving the Crown Prince's reply, Baslob also knew that this was the greatest sincerity shown by the Crown Prince.
"Thank you very much for your highness's love for Germany. I hope our two countries can maintain long-term and good relations." The ambassador said gratefully after getting the result he wanted.
After Baslob returned to the embassy, he passed the news to the waiting Siemens team.
"This result is very good for us. Now we need to calculate the price at which we should win this order." After receiving the news, Dika Salt ordered his subordinates.
Dika Stern knows that it is unrealistic for Romania to hand this order directly to Siemens. Now they are half a position ahead of General Motors. Although there are other companies, Dika Stern knows about this order.
It will only happen in these two companies, because only these two represent the highest level in the current power industry.
After Siemens had arrived in Romania for a week to prepare, General Motors had just arrived. This time the General manager was a middle-aged man named Siskel. As a General manager, Siskel knew that his task was very arduous. Europe has always belonged to Siemens.
He considered this Romanian order to be an opportunity. If completed, it would allow the board of directors to see his capabilities and help the company open up the European market. Therefore, Siscor was determined to win this time.
After arriving in Romania, Siskel was no different from Dika Silt before, looking for connections everywhere. However, the United States had little influence on Romania, which made Siskel feel like he was hitting a wall everywhere. This caused
Siskel's combative spirit made him even more willing to seek help from others. Even Smith, who came from Rockefeller, was harassed by him many times. (General Electric is a Morgan Industries.)
The bidding time soon came, and in the conference room of the Bucharest Hotel where the bidding was held, many power companies attracted by the Romanian order were sitting quietly inside. Listening to what they had known for a long time, no one showed any impatience.
, on the contrary, they all sounded very interesting.
The details of the order were soon finished, and now they were left with two hours to fill out the bid form. Each company had a room to fill in its own form, and every company knew that this was the time to finally decide the outcome.
I also thought twice about filling it out.
Soon the filling time came, and each company handed over the completed bid forms to the organizer. All that was left was to wait for the results. Seeing Siskel and his team from General Motors, Dika Salt sat down
He was three seats away to his left.
Time passed very quickly, and it was the time to announce the winning bid. Everyone present wanted the host to say that he was the winning bidder. Of course, this was impossible. The host, who was stared at by everyone, quickly said it out of his mouth.
"I announce that the winning bidder this time is 'Siemens'."
