At that time, I could just use the reason of lack of construction experience to drive away the other party. Wang Rui has always been responsible for the procurement and construction of this factory. This time, Zhu Cunxin did not go through Wang Rui and found someone by himself. Wang Rui was already dissatisfied. .
The last time he saw Ji Donglai, Wang Rui thought that the child could not do it at all. Unexpectedly, the plan Ji Donglai brought was too detailed. Even the number of screws was marked. Wang Rui knew that it was not good, so he started translating. Containing private goods.
Of course, Ji Donglai's quotation was indeed high, which was also Wang Rui's point of attack.
On the other hand, Wang Rui had no idea how much the construction would actually cost. Every time Wang Rui hired a construction team, he would increase the budget later, which was basically more than three times the original quotation.
Over time, Winster has formed a stereotype of the Chinese, that is, the Chinese always quote low prices during construction, and then increase the price later, allowing you to move south.
So now Winster decided to imitate certain people and began to lower the price by 30%.
"Hello, Mr. Winster! That's it, our quotation is a one-time quotation. Even if the cost increases later, we will not let your company bear it! Also, look here, from your office host To the end production department, the total is 235 meters. The height of the wall here is..."
Ji Donglai is very familiar with this era. Although the reform and opening up has been going on for more than ten years and the domestic hardware facilities are relatively complete, the corresponding talent reserve is still very weak.
Especially for such foreign companies, there is a shortage of supporting equipment, including professional translators.
Foreigners emphasize that data speaks for themselves. At this time, most of the small businesses that provide supporting services to foreign companies make random quotations.
If you want to achieve long-term cooperation with foreigners, the best way is to be open and honest. Once trust is established with foreigners, long-term cooperation will be possible with this trust.
When it comes to making money now, foreign companies are still the best place to collect money. With the wave of layoffs, it’s better to have food to eat first.
Therefore, Ji Donglai and Party A didn't waste any time. They directly picked up pencils, drew layout diagrams on A4 paper, and broke down each step of the construction.
It includes where to bend, where to make various connections, brackets, including how many embedded parts to use, all written very clearly.
"Okay, Mr. Winter understands, but your quotation is still a bit high. Mr. Winter hopes you can re-quote, but your plan can be kept!"
When Ji Donglai was halfway through, Wang Rui's expression relaxed. He stretched out his hand to directly press the paper where Ji Donglai wrote the plan, and interrupted loudly. Ji Dong glanced at Winster and decisively chose to shut up. Actually Winster didn't say anything.
Wang Jue and Liu Yupeng next to them wanted to say something, Ji Donglai winked, and finally they walked out of the factory in despair.
"Donglai, you shouldn't have written out the plan just now. I guess this list is a waste! You are still too inexperienced. I'm 100% sure that the translator will turn around and find someone to do it with our plan. ! Remember next time, we must keep it secret when doing this kind of project, we won’t say anything until we win the bid!”
"You must remember that when you go out into society in the future, one thing leads to another... Forget it, you don't understand even if I tell you, you are just as suitable for technical work as my uncle!"
After getting into the taxi, Wang Jue felt an unconcealable disappointment in his eyes.
Having been in this industry for so long, Wang Jue knows these people very well, especially the Chinese translators in foreign companies, who basically work part-time in procurement and personnel! The profit of this project is so high that the translator is determined to find someone to replace him.
I can only blame myself for not bringing Ji Donglai here. I should have done the quotation myself. I expected to bring Ji Donglai to gain experience, but I didn't expect that I thought too much.
Ji Donglai smiled and said nothing, and Liu Yupeng's eyes were full of disappointment.
"Dong Lai, you really need to learn from your elder sister in the future. You really can't give this plan to him! Just like my father and others, they pull goods for the cargo owners. Which way they take is confidential. It's better for you to tell them the route directly. You don’t know how to drive your own car? You young man..."
"It would be better if the price is lower. If others can't do it, they will have to come to us!"
Liu Yupeng bragged with the little girl at the counter next door yesterday. After the business was completed, he took a few people to eat KFC. Now? Let's eat some steamed buns.
"I put my words aside. It's time to prepare the goods. In five days, they will come back to us. We will not give up a cent of this price!"
Looking at the expressions of the two of them, Ji Donglai thought that times really create heroes. Even the elites of the era like Wang Jue will not really break through cultural barriers to think about issues at the moment.
Through these several contacts, Ji Donglai saw a familiar temperament in Winster. He was definitely not the kind of character who could be led around by the interpreter casually.
Because when Ji Dong presented the plan just now, many points were expressed with professional symbols. Winster said nothing during the whole process, but he could tell from his eyes that the other party understood.
Of course, the most important thing is: Wang Rui translated everything wrong, and he didn’t have the nerve to ask! ! There is also a possibility that the other party did it on purpose, which would be easier to handle!
"Brother, are you really sure? Could it be that you gave a gift to that person named Zhu? How much did you give? If it's too little, they may not be able to do anything for us..."
Hearing what Ji Donglai said, hope rekindled in Wang Jue's eyes. After all, middlemen are very important in dealing with foreigners these days. Several people did not see Zhu Cunxin at the scene today.
Thinking about it again, Ji Donglai repeatedly mentioned Zhu Cunxin when he was talking about this matter to himself yesterday. Could it be that the other party could play a decisive role in this matter?
"Lai Dong, tell us quickly..."
“Tsk, it’s a matter of fact!”
"Uh... brat, you dare to imitate me..."
Ji Donglai also learned what he was doing, and slapped Wang Jue with one sentence. Then he received a fierce counterattack from Wang Jue, and his thighs were almost purple.
In Winster's factory, the foreigner was walking around the workshop holding a few pieces of paper quoted by Ji Donglai, silently counting the steps in his mind.
From time to time, I look at the numbers on Ji Donglai's quotation. After confirming, he returns to the office and directly asks the engineering department for the design drawings of the entire workshop. All the numbers almost match up.
Of course, it also includes many special electrical switches, frequency converters, copper rows and aluminum rows on Ji Donglai's quotation, which are consistent with the design drawings, and the closeness reaches 80%.
If it hadn't been confirmed that the design drawing had been in the engineering department, Winster would have even thought that Ji Dong had seen the design drawing.
Of course, it was not that Winster had not thought of giving the design drawings to the local companies that came to quote, but the key was that no one could understand them. What was even more exaggerated was that some companies even took down the drawings and still talked with him there.
But thinking about Ji Donglai's age, Winston felt something was wrong!
