After Mr. Xiang divorced, the president regretted it
Chapter 434: Conflict of Interests
As soon as the assistant finished speaking, Yan Jin and Xiang Yu exchanged a firm look and went to the meeting room together. In the room, Jack had been waiting for a long time. Next to him sat a tall, serious foreign man, who was another key figure in their trip - Thomson.
"Good morning," Jack stood up, a fake smile on his face, "I hope you had a good rest yesterday."
"We all value time," Yan Jin said straight to the point, with an unquestionable strong tone, "So, can we get straight to the point today, Mr. Jack?"
The smile on Jack's face froze, then returned to normal. He made a "please" gesture, indicating that the two should take a seat.
The atmosphere at the conference table was heavy and depressing. The two sides started a new round of competition on the distribution of benefits of the cooperation project, just like two armies fighting fiercely at the negotiation table. Jack refused to give in and insisted on a higher share ratio, claiming that this would reflect the value of their technology and experience. Yan Jin calmly explained their position. Every data and every clause was carefully calculated and scrutinized, and no deviation was allowed.
"Mr. Yan, you also know that international cooperation means higher risks and costs," Jack spread his hands with a helpless expression, "We need to be responsible to our shareholders, and this ratio is the bottom line we can accept."
"Fairness is the basis of cooperation," Yan Jin said firmly, "We respect your technology and experience, but we have also invested a huge amount of money and resources. This project is the result of the joint efforts of both parties, and we should get the due return."
Just when the two sides were deadlocked, Thomson, who had been silent all this time, spoke up. His tone was low, but with unquestionable majesty, "I understand your difficulties, but in order to promote international cooperation and development, we have formulated some preferential policies. Of course, these policies are only for partners who are willing to share more benefits."
His words seemed to be understated, but they were like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, stirring up thousands of waves. Yan Jin and Xiang Yu both understood that Thomson's intervention had completely changed the pattern of the negotiations. What they were facing now was not only Jack and his company, but also pressure from foreign governments.
"It seems..." Xiang Yu tapped the table lightly, with a meaningful smile on his face, "We still have a lot of details to discuss."
"The way of cooperation is not static," Xiang Yu took over the conversation, his deep eyes flashing with wisdom, "We can try a brand new model that can not only guarantee your interests, but also achieve a win-win situation."
He succinctly explained his idea: the cooperation project will be divided into two phases. In the first phase, Jack's team will provide technical support to help them set up production lines and train technical personnel, and this part will be divided according to the proportion proposed by Jack. In the second phase, they will obtain technical authorization, independently produce and sell products, and pay a certain proportion of sales as technology usage fees.
After listening to Xiang Yu's proposal, Jack frowned slightly and fell into deep thought. Thomson's eyes also became sharp, and it was obvious that he was interested in this new model.
"This plan sounds interesting," Jack stroked his chin, with a tentative tone, "but we need more data and analysis to support the specific implementation."
Yan Jin was well prepared. She opened the laptop she carried with her and projected a detailed market research and data analysis report onto the big screen, clearly showing the expected benefits and risk assessment under the new cooperation model.
"According to our calculations, with this model, your revenue in the first phase can be increased by 15% over expectations," Yan Jin pointed at the data on the screen, speaking calmly and confidently. "In the second phase, we estimate that after the product is launched, sales will exceed billion within three years. Even at the lowest rate, your technology royalties will be a considerable income."
Jack looked at the data on the screen carefully, his face gradually becoming serious. He had to admit that Yan Jin's data analysis was very convincing, and the new cooperation model could indeed bring them higher profits.
However, Jack still had concerns. He knew that any innovation was accompanied by risks, and if the sales of the second phase did not meet expectations, their interests would be damaged. More importantly, the purpose of his trip was not only to make a profit, but also to open up the Chinese market and expand their influence.
"Mr. Yan, your proposal is very attractive, but I need time to consider it," Jack finally did not nod. He turned to look at Thomson, as if seeking his opinion.
Thomson's eyes moved away from the screen. He crossed his hands on the table and spoke slowly: "Time is precious. I believe you all know that opportunities always come to those who are prepared..." He did not finish his words, but the profound meaning in them made everyone present feel an invisible pressure.
Thomson's words were like a stone that stirred up a thousand waves on the already turbulent lake. The atmosphere in the conference room instantly dropped to freezing point, and the team members behind Jack began to whisper, and the atmosphere of worry and anxiety spread in the air.
"Mr. Thomson, we understand what you mean," Xiang Yu said calmly, but his tone was firm and unquestionable. "But cooperation should be based on mutual benefit and win-win results. The proposal we put forward has fully considered the interests of both parties and made the greatest concessions."
"Concession?" Jack sneered and slammed the document in his hand on the table. "Mr. Xiang, what you mean by concession is that you let us take greater risks, and you sit back and reap the benefits?"
The atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became tense. Team members from both sides became increasingly excited. Everyone was talking at once, and no one was willing to back down. The originally orderly meeting gradually turned into a chaotic argument.
Yan Jin observed all this calmly. She knew that at this moment, any emotional expression would be of no help. Only by finding the key to the problem could the deadlock be broken.
"Everyone, please calm down for a moment," Yan Jin's voice was clear and powerful, suppressing the noise in the conference room. "Our goal now is to promote cooperation, not to argue about who is right or wrong."
She turned to Jack and said in a sincere and firm tone: "Mr. Jack, we understand your concerns and are willing to discuss the specific details in more depth. However, I hope you can understand that the proposal we put forward is well thought out. It is not only beneficial to both parties, but also in line with the long-term development of the project."
However, Jack's emotions were clearly not calmed down yet. He stood up suddenly and said in a tough tone: "Boss Yan, I appreciate your honesty, but I need to see more sincerity, not empty promises."
After saying that, he walked out of the meeting room without even looking at Yan Jin and Xiang Yu. His team members followed closely behind him, leaving the room full of awkwardness and silence.
"It seems that this negotiation is not going well," Xiang Yu broke the silence, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.
"Jack is a tough opponent," Yan Jin rubbed his brows, a hint of fatigue in his tone, "but he is not completely unyielding. We need to find out what he is worried about so that we can prescribe the right remedy."
Xiang Yu nodded, a firm look flashed in his deep eyes: "I will arrange for someone to contact him privately to see if we can find a breakthrough."
Yan Jin hesitated for a moment and added, "I'll go with you."
As night falls and the lights of the bustling city come on, the soft lighting in a high-end Western restaurant creates a quiet and private atmosphere.
"Jack, I know you're still hesitant," Yan Jin put down the knife and fork in her hand and looked at Jack sitting opposite her sincerely, "But I hope you can understand that we really want to facilitate this cooperation and are willing to work hard for our common goal."
Jack was silent, didn't say anything, just picked up the wine glass and took a sip of red wine.
"I know what you are really worried about," Xiang Yu's voice was low and powerful, "We can..."
