"Yes." Owen nodded straightforwardly: "and the reduction degree is very low. It's a fixed model made of plastic. It's far worse than what I have in my hand."
With that, Owen raised his F-14, but with a bang, a piece of skin on the wing popped open, revealing the crossbeam and skeleton inside. Owen was excited again. He didn't expect that the appearance of such a lifelike plane would be restored, and there was a hole in it. Oh, my God! Oh,MyGod! I want to cry.
Then he looked up and pleaded with Zhuang Jianye and Ning Xiaodong: "my dear friends, my money is really not enough. Can you give me 20, no, 30 first, and I'll give you the money when I come back from the United States? Don't worry. I swear to God that I will never cheat you."
Then he turned around and searched for drawers and wardrobe boxes for a long time. Finally, he turned out a camera and two boxes of film and pushed them to Zhuang Jianye and Ning Xiaodong: "this is the professional photography camera of Zeiss, which I bought before I came to China. It's worth 5000 US dollars. It's deposited with you as collateral."
Zhuang Jianye is nothing, but Ning Xiaodong's eyes are worth it. These days, any camera is worth a lot, and the imported ones are even more valuable. Ning Xiaodong of Zeiss in Germany doesn't understand it, but he knows that 5000 US dollars is absolutely a sky high price. Let alone 30 airplanes, even 60 are OK.
If he is alone, even if he hesitates, will he absolutely agree? The problem is that it's not him who is in charge now. He can only wink at Zhuang Jianye and ask him to agree quickly.
Zhuang Jianye naturally agreed that 30 would be 6000 US dollars, which is not as valuable as a cold drink equipment. The problem is that it's foreign exchange, but the meaning is different.
It's just that the purpose of Zhuang Jianye's coming here is more than just six thousand dollars.
So Zhuang Jianye held the Zeiss professional camera in his hand, looked left and right, put it back, and asked again, "how much do you think such a model is worth in the United States?"
"At least 500 dollars!" Owen answered without thinking.
"Mr. Owen, are you interested in acting as our agent to help us promote sales in the United States?" Zhuang Jianye finally said the purpose of coming here today.
Owen smell speech play action is a meal, immediately frown: "do you want me to help you sell this model in the United States?"
"Yes Zhuang Jianye nodded: "that's what I'm here for today. The business we want to talk about is this model."
Owen looked at Zhuang Jianye and Ning Xiaodong, then burst out laughing: "you are the smartest Chinese I have ever met. Seriously, you really interest me. The model is really good. I like it very much."
With that, Owen turned the corner and said with some embarrassment: "but, my friend, I'm just an ordinary engineer. Sales promotion is not my strong point. You know when I was 10 years old, I sold newspapers for change, but I didn't get the change, but all the newspapers were lost. At that time, I knew that I was a fool in sales, so I think you've got the wrong person."
Owen is sincere. What he won't do is he won't do it. He won't do it just because it's good.
Ning Xiaodong was a little disappointed. Before he came here, he still had an illusion. If Owen agreed to sell the high-end model machines of the 23rd branch, the factory would immediately change its guns and become an export foreign exchange earning factory. What kind of financial pressure, profit turning in, and product sniping would all be floating clouds.
After that, the reservation of US $6000 made Ning Xiaodong's fantasy come out. With all the US $6000, is it far from being an agent with tens of thousands of US dollars? As a result, when his dream came true, Owen's words brought Ning Xiaodong back to his original shape, that is, a foreigner, he didn't dare to be rough. In other words, my East brother would definitely make friends with each other with his elegant long hair.
NND, are you still a little present? Half of the profits are given to you. I dare not ask for them. What a fight!
Ning Xiaodong is disappointed, but Zhuang Jianye thinks Owen is very reliable. If a person sees good things and rashly promises you how much profit I can create for you and how many products I can sell for you, Zhuang Jianye will be surprised.
Like Owen, he is not good at telling the truth is reliable. At least he won't tell you that it's over when he can't do it. We've failed, and then we'll pat our ass and run away. All the losses will be given to you.
So Zhuang Jianye was not so disappointed as Ning Xiaodong. Instead, he continued to say with a smile: "otherwise, Mr. Owen, we will only trade for 30, but can we change the variety? Besides F-14, we will provide you with F-15, F-4, a-6, P-51 'wild horse', B-29, B-25 and Navy 'wild cat'.
Then you can take it back to China and help us promote it among your family and friends. Here is our address and contact information. If anyone is interested, you can contact us at any time. "
As he said, Zhuang Jianye handed Owen a small card. Originally, Zhuang Jianye wanted to get some business cards. Unfortunately, there was no business in Huancheng or Xingzhou. He had no choice but to find a printing factory in Huancheng and make up dozens of cards.Owen took the card and looked at the Chinese on it. He frowned a little, but after a closer look, he found that there was corresponding English below the Chinese. He was relieved: "no problem, I will introduce it to my family and friends. Many of them like the model, especially the children. Oh, by the way, are the quality of the models you mentioned the same as those in my hand?"
"guarantee as like as two peas!" Zhuang Jianye nodded.
"That's good!"
Owen was very happy. Originally, he wanted to go back and bring some presents for his family and friends. The agricultural products he brought back last time were damaged before they got off the plane, which made him very unhappy. This is good. With these model planes, the children will definitely be very happy.
As for helping Zhuang Jianye publicize, it's a matter of lifting a finger. Anyway, don't let him engage in sales. He's really not good at it.
In this way, Zhuang Jianye and Ning Xiaodong stayed with Owen for a while. After drinking Owen's warm coffee, they talked about women and some open topics about movements. Then they took the Zeiss camera and left.
As soon as he went out, Ning Xiaodong complained sullenly: "I didn't expect Owen to be so timid. What a good business. I'll go to see them when miles and Heisenberg come back."
"Well, only by spreading the net can we catch more fish!" Zhuang Jianye said calmly.
"Well, I find you're not worried at all!" Ning Xiaodong was surprised.
"It's no use if I'm in a hurry. Why don't you go to the United States to help run the business?" Zhuang Jianye suggests that Ning Xiaodong's face will collapse immediately. It's more difficult to go abroad than to go to university these days. He just gives up and sighs: "how can we say that we've also made 6000 dollars? Let's spread the Internet bar. Ah ~ ~ how is Lao Ju's silly son here?"
