Chapter 109 Is this offer a bit too high?

When it came to filling out the bid documents, several foreign companies that were interested in bidding began to call the head office.

The Oss Steel Plant in the United States is no exception. They are determined to get this order, and their CEO Michael Robin is in remote control throughout the process.

The steel mills in the United States are a sunset industry and have been criticized by many parties for environmental issues.

Therefore, they gave up a lot of low-end businesses and focused on mid-to-high-end businesses. If they could win the Rabbit's aircraft carrier arresting cable order, they would not only make a lot of money, but also make a name for themselves.

"Boss, how many tens of thousands of US dollars should we put in our bid?" Bob, the on-site manager of the Oss Steel Plant, asked in a low voice while holding a satellite phone.

At this moment, he was in a single room on the first floor lobby that was temporarily built for filling out bid documents.

Although there is a certain degree of privacy, walls have ears and we have to guard against leaks.

Michael Robin was in a state of panic at this moment.

He is the CEO of Oss Steel Plant, so he naturally knows that the arresting cables for his own aircraft carrier are supplied by Huayang Steel Plant.

I originally thought that if I increased the price by 50%, the company would sign a contract extension, but I didn't expect that the contract has not been signed yet.

If the contract was gone, he really wouldn't dare to do anything rash. After all, the penalty for breach of contract in the military industry is no joke.

"Fuck you, can you take over that damn Huayang Steel Plant?" Michael Robin roared at his secretary in the office.

He then picked up the satellite phone and called Li Yunfei personally.

In the conference room on the second floor of the bidding site, Li Yunfei looked at the call from Oss Steel Plant and turned on the speakerphone directly without covering it.

"Li, I'm the CEO of Oss Steel Plant. We have a contract extension. Do you want to sign it or not?"

"Airport arresting cables are not produced by you alone. We can change suppliers at any time!"

"If you breach the contract, you will have to pay millions of dollars in liquidated damages. I hope you can think clearly about this price."

Li Yunfei listened to the arrogant voice on the satellite phone and said indifferently, "Of course I know. I can still afford the penalty of less than five million US dollars."

After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

Everyone in the conference room looked at each other in bewilderment.

The naval leader couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "Xiao Li, why don't you agree to his request?"

"Didn't we agree that we would make them pay a penalty and vomit out everything they've eaten over the years?"

Li Yunfei smiled when he heard this and explained, "Leader, I have experience dealing with the Eagle Sauce. They always take the hard side and not the soft side."

"If you leave them alone, they will give in and make greater concessions. At the same time, they will kill you even more ruthlessly, and the penalty they have to pay will naturally be higher."

"They have neither production capacity nor inventory. Even the arresting cables for their own aircraft carriers are purchased from us on-the-go."

"If we don't take advantage of them now, when will we?"

After hearing this, the five leaders present nodded in agreement.

This bad problem exists not only in the United States, but throughout Europe and the United States.

As long as we make any breakthrough in high technology, Europe and the United States will definitely make substantial concessions in terms of imports.

In the office of the CEO of Oss Steel Plant, Michael Robin was a little slow to react at this moment. He didn't expect that Li Yunfei would dare to hang up his phone.

He angrily threw the satellite phone away, then looked at the female secretary next to him, and impatiently ordered her to squat down and forced her head down.

Seeing this, the assistant beside him turned around silently and said, "CEO, your friend, Deputy Secretary of State Levin, has a good personal relationship with Li."

"If he can mediate the order for aircraft carrier arresting cables, I think there is a high chance that the other party will renew the contract." Michael Robin listened to his assistant's words, agreed with his face, and nodded with great enjoyment.

He then picked up his phone and immediately began contacting Levine.

Levin naturally did not dare to offend this giant of the military-industrial complex easily, not to mention that the benefits promised by the other party were not low.

So the other person's tone of voice was a bit strange, and he kept making weird noises, but he didn't care.

Li Yunfei waited for a long time, but did not receive a call from Michael Robin. Instead, he received a call from Levin.

He frowned and answered the phone. While he was still thinking, Levin's unique laughter came over.

"Li, how are you doing recently? Are you feeling well?"

"It's fine, Levin. You called me not just to show concern for my health, right?"

Levin smiled awkwardly, then said frankly: "Li, I knew I couldn't hide it from you, so I'll tell you the truth."

"The CEO of Oss Steel is my friend. He asked me to mediate and renew the contract for the airport arresting cables between you two."

"Of course, as a friend, I have tried my best to gain enough benefits for you. They are willing to raise the price of the steel cable to US$600,000 per cable."

If he didn't know about the aircraft carrier's arresting cable, the price of 600,000 US dollars would be enough to make Li Yunfei grateful to Levin.

But now, the only words in his mind were "haha".

The wool comes from the sheep, and the other side seems to be bleeding, but in fact, it is just to get more.

"Li, you two are my friends, and we still have a lot of business to discuss."

"Especially the business of replacing water pipes throughout the meter, which is worth tens of trillions. The help of Oss Steel Plant is indispensable in this process. I hope you can help them." Levin said very frankly and slightly threateningly.

After hearing this, Li Yunfei smiled calmly, then nodded and agreed to renew the contract.

When Levin called Michael Robin, who had finished the battle and had entered a state like a saint or a Buddha, the other party immediately laughed excitedly.

After he hung up the phone, he looked at the secretary next to him, who had yogurt on the corner of her mouth and was retching from time to time, and ordered with a hint of playfulness: "I, Michael Levin, hate wasting things the most. Don't spit it out. Eat it all!"

The female secretary nodded mechanically, stood up, licked the yogurt remaining at the corner of her mouth, and turned and left.

The assistant then turned around and asked, "CEO, what should we do now? How many tens of thousands of dollars should be filled in the contract on the bid?"

now.

Michael Robin, who was frighteningly calm, laughed a little perversely and said, "I must get back double what I lost!"

"Tell Bob that it will cost 14 million US dollars. Now we are the only ones who can provide them with aircraft carrier arresting cables."

"They have to accept this contract even if they don't want to!"

When his assistant heard this, he couldn't help but gasp and asked, "CEO, isn't $14 million a bit too high?"

"You're taller than your mother. Do you understand technology?" Michael Robin grabbed the ashtray on the table and threw it at her.

In his heart, he still felt a little unhappy that Li Yunfei had ripped him off.

For so many years, you have been exploiting others. When have you ever been exploited by others?
His assistant covered his head and immediately turned around and left.

Michael Robin opened the drawer, took out two small blue pills, swallowed them, looked at the assistant who was about to leave, and added, "Stop, call my secretary in."

"There were some things just now that I didn't explain clearly to her!"
