Chapter 18 Not a single word can be changed
After hanging up the representatives of the sellers for more than half an hour, Jester came to the reception room alone.
They are still the four largest Southern California sellers led by Schwell Group, but the candidates for this time are completely different from the last time.
When the four of them saw Jester come in, they quickly stood up, with a respectful look on their faces, completely losing the arrogance of last time, as if they were giving alms.
"I've been waiting for a long time. I'm discussing sales with a San Jose salesman. After all, they need a lot of this time, with a total of 1,000 units!" Jester's face was smiling and he was talking casually about things that didn't exist at all. He was sorry, but his tone was not at all.
Hearing Jester's words, the old man who was leading the four jumped his eyebrows and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes. His palm clenched hard, and the blue veins on the back of his hand thundered, forcibly enduring the anger.
"Mr. Li."
The leading old man was a white man in his fifties, with a meticulous blonde hair, a slender nose, fair skin, and a spotless suit. He had a strong Ruhr accent. His blue eyes looked at Jester, bowed slightly, and said, "Our Schwell Group apologized for the last incident, and we have followed your words. The fool Carey has been fired by us, and the other three have the same result."
The other three dealers also nodded and said yes.
Then the old man stretched out a hand and handed it to Jester, showing a self-kind smile, and said, "Let's get to know each other again, Werner Heine, the executive director of Schwell Group. We came this time with 120,000 sincerity. We have unconditional all the conditions you proposed last time..."
"hehe!"
Jester ignored the other party's palm that reached in front of him and made a few sarcastic laughs, interrupting the other party.
The face of the old man named Warner Heine changed, and a gloomy look flashed in his eyes. He took back his palm and his face still had that kind smile without showing any embarrassment.
This surprised Jester. It was not easy for this German to be humiliated by him.
"What gentleman...sorry, I forgot your name."
Jester dragged a swivel chair from the side and sat down, crossed his legs, squinted his eyes, looked at the four sales representatives, and said, "The conditions we negotiated last time were not suitable for this negotiation. We made our offer sincerely last time. This is a treatment only for friends, but you rejected our friendship, so the last offer was invalid."
"you!"
Hearing Jester's words and with such a behavior, a representative of the salesperson suddenly took a step forward, his face flushed with anger, "You agreed last time..."
"Hey!"
Jester said coldly, looked at the representative of the salesperson who was lazy to ask even his name, and said contemptuously: "Times have changed."
The old man named Warner Heine coughed, and the sales representative who was angry at Jester's humiliation retreated in disappointment. Then the executive director of the Schwell Group turned to Jester and his face became serious.
"What conditions do you want? What I need to warn you is that our Schwell Group and the other three sellers also have bottom lines." Werner Heine's voice was slow and low, and there was even a vague sense of threat.
Jester still smiled disdainfully after hearing this.
Just pretend.
"I am willing to talk to you just because I value your sales channels. Not only do you occupy California's sales channels, but you can also quickly distribute goods throughout the United States. This is the reason I am willing to talk to. If you really think that I can't play with you Schwell, then I tell you, you are wrong." Jester's tone was extremely tough and confident.
"And, on the entire West Coast, not only you sales companies can do the whole of the United States."
After hearing Jester's words, although the expression on Werner Heine's face did not change at all, she did sigh heavily in her heart.
He knew that the other party was right. "American Cubes" had become popular in most of California, and then on the West Coast, and then the country was popular. If they didn't take action now, they wouldn't have to come from big sellers in other states. The remaining small sellers in California, which had long been eyeing their market share, would have been unable to hold on. By then, they wouldn't even be able to drink soup.
He now hates Kaili, who had ruined this matter before, although the price proposed by the other party was almost blackmailed, and no seller would agree to it.
But...Werner Heine looked at Jester seriously at this time, and he was a little curious. Why did this young man be so confident about his game? He could only succeed in a small Costa Mesa at that time, which made him so confident? Or was he so conceited?
"Then, tell me your conditions." Thinking of these, Warner Heine was a little nervous. He knew that the two parties to this negotiation were not on the same fair level at all, and being blackmailed was inevitable.
Because doing their business is like not advancing, you will retreat. If you can't get the agency sales rights of "American Cubes", then you will be taken away by other sellers and you will lose it not only the considerable profits brought by this game, but also the market that their sales companies value the most.
A certain profit can be given up, but the market share must not be given up.
After all, Schwell took the big ship Atari, which was the size of the present.
Moreover, with the collapse of Atari and the downturn in the game market, especially the home computer market, the entertainment equipment market has shrunk by at least half in the past year. As the company's senior executive and executive director, Werner Heine, knows that if this continues, the company is likely to collapse early.
He knew this himself and Jester also knew it, so Jester was confident in negotiations.
Let the other party’s villain succeed first! After passing this difficulty, there will naturally be a chance to take revenge, Werner Heine thought so.
Seeing that the other party showed signs of surrender so quickly, Jester was a little unhappy, and he had not yet avenged enough.
However, as the saying goes, heroes don’t laugh at people’s faces, so Jester will no longer be entangled.
Jester took out a stack of documents that had been printed from the folder he carried with him, threw them in front of Warner Heine and the other four, and said lightly: "No word is allowed to be changed, just sign it."
This is what Kyrie Thomas of Schwell Group said to Jester during the last negotiation. Jester felt full of humiliation at the time, and now he returns the original words.
Unexpectedly, Werner Heine, who had originally planned to compromise, suddenly turned red when she heard Jester's words, and her eyes seemed to be able to shoot out the flames that devoured people and stared at Jester.
His teeth choked, and the veins clenched in his fists.
Jester was also given a sudden change. He used to be so sarcastic that the other party could endure it with a smile. This time he just gave the other party such a sentence intact, which made the other party so unbearable?
Warner Heine stared at Jester so tightly for three seconds, his lips squirmed, as if he was about to say something, and then his face seemed to have been pale for twenty years instantly, and he sighed.
"I'll look at the contract first..."
After saying that, he was like an old man who was about to die, and he took the agreement that Jester threw over and looked through it.
Jester was a little confused about this, so he couldn't understand why this German guy was so intense just now.
It was not until later that he knew the whole story when he talked to a friend about it.
Just because Warner Heine is a German.
Moreover, his ancestors once participated in a war, and several immediate relatives died in the battle.
When the First World War ended, Germany surrendered. When the Treaty of Versailles was signed, the German representatives did not even have the right to participate in the discussion of the contents.
After the discussions between Britain and France were completed, the then French Prime Minister, George Clemenceau, who was known as the greatest politician in the Third Republic of France, threw the contract before the German representative and left that famous saying.
"Everything cannot be changed, sign it!"
For the Germans, this is a very humiliating contract. Any German with a little blood will never accept this contract that seems to be a gift, with great insult, and almost deprives Germany of survival in the sun.
Therefore, almost every German person hates the Versailles peace treaty, the person who signs the contract, especially George Clemenceau.
It can even be said without hesitation that to a certain extent, this extremely demanding contract caused the outbreak of World War II twenty years later.
To give an inappropriate example, if you say this famous quote from Clemenceau to a German, it is like a Japanese saying to a Chinese with contemptuous words: "Hey, Chinese pig, come and eat soar."
This kind of hatred is deeply rooted in the bones.
After knowing the allusion here, Jester sighed for a long time, but he didn't expect that the German guy could even bear it.
But at that time, Schweier Company no longer existed.
Warner Heine finished reading the agreement drawn up by Jester, which was an agreement that did not leave room for both parties at all. Every word and even every punctuation was filled with Jester's greed, and he almost wanted to squeeze out all profits.
Not only did he increase the price of each unit to 6,000 US dollars, he also had to share 20% of the sales profits of these sellers of Schweer Group, but he also specifically stipulated that if they cannot sell a certain amount within half a year, Mars Entertainment has the right to reclaim the exclusive agency rights handed over to Schweer's four sales companies.
They even asked their four companies to have to take the first order of 5,000 units. Don’t this damn vampire know that 5,000 units are calculated based on the 6,000 US dollars each, which is a total of 30 million US dollars!
This is a contract that is enough for any seller to tolerate.
But after reading it, Warner Heine signed his name without saying a word. The other three companies originally wanted to argue with Jester because this association was really too harsh.
But after they saw that Warner Heine signed his name without hesitation, they also signed their names with bitter face and reluctantly.
They were originally led by Werner Heine, and even their leaders agreed. What other ways can they do on their own side?
"The choice is not with us." Warner Heine said in a low voice to the other three representatives.
After signing the letter, the four of them left without looking back.
Before leaving, it may be that this agreement was too slanderous, and Warner Heine couldn't help but ridicule Jester: "Young people, you should leave room for business, and don't be too arrogant."
Chapter completed!
