The Las Vegas bidding meeting opened two days later. Efram and David excitedly bought plane tickets and flew directly from Miami.
Long Zhan had never participated in this kind of arms procurement exhibition, so he followed it with interest.
On the opening day of the exhibition, Ephraim and David put on designer suits, ties and gold watches, and arrived at the bidding exhibition looking like human beings.
There is a weapons company here with real weapons, which are placed on the booth so that customers can see and touch them.
There are also a large number of customers who buy booths here, negotiate with arms dealers and contractors who come to bid, and buy the goods they need.
AEY is just a small company that has just started, and most people don’t know what it is.
nature.
Not many people know Ephraim and David.
On the contrary, Long Zhan has a higher return rate, 9 and a half out of 10 people will look back.
However, Ephraim is very good at reverse thinking and regards everyone's ignorance of AEY as an advantage, so that he will not be deliberately targeted by competitors.
"Did you bring the list?"
Ephraim asked enthusiastically as he looked at the crowded exhibition.
"Bring it." David patted the briefcase.
"How do you feel?" Ephraim asked.
"It's okay," David replied.
"This is completely different from discussing business on the phone. When they see us, their first reaction will definitely be that we are two little brats, so we must put on a good show."
Ephraim taught David as he walked. To David, he was truly a close friend and a golden partner in business.
"clear."
David arranged his tie carefully, a little nervously.
"Our veteran cosplayers have only been in this industry for 10 years. Only by keeping them all in check can we win the contract. Do you understand?" Ephraim continued to teach.
"Okay, don't worry."
David took a deep breath and let it out slowly, feeling that he was completely OK.
"That's good, let's go. We must win a big order today." Ephram was confident and went straight to the Ministry of National Defense's booth.
However.
Ephraim is very confident, and David's condition is also well adjusted.
Actual implementation is another story.
To put it mildly, it was a disaster of epic proportions.
It soon became clear that even if they could talk to the people in charge of each bid, it would still be a big operational problem.
Because wanting to handle orders of this magnitude is completely different from their previous business.
They have to deal with different suppliers from all over the world, and the goods they want can only be reserved, and there is no way to get them directly.
Moreover, goods that weigh tens of thousands of units require dozens of transportation vehicles.
And most importantly hundreds of licenses.
These various problems in subsequent supply operations are not a problem at all for the big contractors and can be solved easily.
Just like the backstage and energy of Titan Company, getting a license is a matter of minutes.
But for AEY, it is very difficult.
simply put.
It’s just that Ephraim and David are not qualified enough to take on such a big order. Even if it is given to them, they will not be able to take it.
It's one thing to make a lot of money from each order, but it's another thing if you can't make enough.
Ephraim wanted to help out.
As long as Long Zhan is willing to nod, with the current reputation of Titan Company, winning a big order at this meeting will be as easy as drinking water.
But Efram knows he can't do this because the agreement is still being examined.
Earning 5 million depends on his own ability. Asking Long Zhan for help would be tantamount to a breach of contract.
No way.
Ephraim had no choice but to give up.
The two spent a day busy at the arms exhibition, but in the end they worked in vain.
As the sun sets and the casino city of Las Vegas begins to show its true charm, Ephraim and David can only leave with regret.
I found a hotel and booked three rooms, and spent the night first.
The business didn't work out, and the two of them were very depressed.
Ephraim continues to use his "characteristics" to find women in the most direct way and never talk nonsense to women.
I just spent 1,000 US dollars to find another bird, brought him into the guest room and started to vent like crazy.
All meals are eaten in the room.
Long Zhan was not as picky as Ephraim. He chose to go to the bar on the basement floor of the hotel to hunt beauties through his personal charm.
David's wife was about to give birth, and he didn't like it either, so he didn't join in the fun.
Instead, he went to the casino behind the first floor of the hotel, exchanged 5,000 US dollars and started gambling. He didn't want to win money, he just wanted to vent.
As the largest gambling city in the world, Las Vegas is indispensable for its casinos.
When David was playing alone boredly, suddenly a man in his 50s with a slicked back hair and a tuxedo took the initiative to sit next to him.
First, I exchanged 10,000 US dollars, and then started chatting with David while betting.
ten minutes later!
David hurried upstairs with excitement on his face, bangbang knocked on the door and shouted: "Evram, Ephram."
Knocked twice and shouted twice.
Ephraim came over and opened the door, but he didn't open it all the way. He just opened a small gap and hung the safety lock.
He put his face in the crack of the door and asked, "Man, what are you doing?"
"Why don't you answer the phone? I've called you several times in a row." David said.
"I just asked a girl to come up and I'm playing with her. What's the matter?" Ephram asked.
"You must change your clothes right now and go downstairs with me. There is something very important." David also wanted to give a surprise for Ephraim to witness in person.
"Uh, not now, you have to wait for a while, give me..."
Ephraim thought for a moment and said: "Give me another 38 minutes."
It's not that Ephraim is so powerful and can play poker for so long, but the girl he called is billed on time and there are 38 minutes left.
He didn't want to waste these 38 minutes, since he paid a high price to call them.
"Farke."
David was speechless towards Ephraim. His servant's infidelity was really giving him a headache, so he could only say: "Evram, we have a drama, Henry Girard is waiting in the bar downstairs. us."
"Henry Girard?? Stop making trouble, how could he come to you." Ephraim didn't believe it.
"I'm serious." David nodded seriously.
"Shet."
Ephraim confirmed that it was true. He was so excited that a smile broke out on his face. He closed the door and ran inside to put on his clothes.
David could hear Ephraim's excited shouts from outside the door. (End of chapter)
