The love story of a wealthy family amid anti-fraud storm at the border
Chapter 250: Cooperation Negotiations without Integrity (2)
At the border manor, after several hours of negotiations, Datuk, Pakun and his son, and Gu Chenxin finally reached an agreement on most of the cooperation terms under Yi Chen's coordination.
The only issue left is the final distribution of profits, and the two sides are still deadlocked.
"Dato, a 50-50 split is really our bottom line. We at Gu's have invested a lot of resources and effort, so this ratio is already fair."
Gu Chenxin was a little impatient. He had already received the news that Ye Qiuyun had completed the mission safely.
He doesn't need to care about the outcome of the negotiations, since he doesn't care about the profits anyway.
After all, Gu's partners in South Africa are numerous.
Moreover, he wanted to go back quickly to accompany Ling Yue and had no time to waste here with this father and son.
When Yi Chen saw Gu Chenxin's hint to him, he no longer had any worries in his heart.
The Datuk no longer received calls from his subordinates, and he felt very uneasy.
The men he sent out were all top-notch fighters, but something went wrong. Perhaps the other party either didn't know him very well or they encountered someone who was difficult to deal with.
At that moment, reason told him that for his own benefit, he must be patient and make a final effort.
"Mr. Gu, I understand your difficulties, but the risk I take here is also very high. 60%, this is my bottom line."
Just when the two sides were at a stalemate, Datuk's cell phone suddenly rang.
He was so excited that he picked up his phone and took a look at the screen.
Then his expression changed slightly, and he immediately stood up and walked into the study to answer the phone.
Yi Chen and Gu Chenxin also noticed something was wrong.
At this time, could it be that the mastermind behind the scenes called again?
After waiting for a few minutes, Datuk hung up the phone and walked out of the study. He returned to his seat with a smug smile on his face.
"Mr. Gu, you haven't received the news yet? It seems that you are in trouble.
I just received news that an accident occurred at one of your Gu Group's mines in South Africa, resulting in heavy losses.
If this news is true, how much supply can you, Gu's, provide us?"
At this moment, the expression on Datuk's face seemed to be a bit gloating.
He lit a cigarette, crossed his legs, took a deep breath, and stared at Gu Chenxin's every move across from him.
Gu Chenxin did not receive any notification. He understood that all this was a trick of the other party and could not be trusted.
"Datuk, the authenticity of this news has yet to be confirmed. Besides, even if there's a problem at the mine, we at Gu's have other channels to guarantee the supply."
Indeed, he had not received any notification, and it was impossible for the Datuk to get the news first.
Yi Chen suddenly understood in his heart that it must be the phone call that was causing this.
It must be that person who is instructing Datuk to deliberately put pressure on Gu Chenxin in order to occupy a more advantageous position in profit distribution.
At this moment, Gu Chenxin said again:
“Datuk, we should still discuss cooperation based on facts.
The matter of the mine has not been concluded yet, and we cannot change the basis of previous negotiations because of unconfirmed news.
If you have doubts about our capabilities, financial resources, or anything else, why don't we terminate the negotiations and seek cooperation again when there's another opportunity."
After hearing this, Yi Chen nodded.
Dato sneered: "Yi Chen, I know that you two have a good relationship, you don't need to speak for him anymore.
It's now clear that Gu's strength has been greatly reduced. I don't think my previous request was excessive."
As soon as the Datuk finished speaking, Gu Chenxin stood up and was about to leave.
His actions immediately made Datuk panic.
Datuk knew that the boss's method had no effect on Gu Chenxin. He was so confident of winning the cooperation with South Africa that it was probably because of Gu Chenxin's mother's support behind him.
Datuk couldn't help but sweat on his forehead due to nervousness.
Yi Chen looked at the situation at the scene, and hurriedly pretended to step forward to persuade Gu Chenxin, whispering a few words in his ear.
Gu Chenxin nodded. He knew that he couldn't continue to be in a stalemate like this. After thinking for a moment, he said:
"Dato, let's make some concessions. I agree to a 50-50 split, plus an additional 10% of the profits, but this portion of the profits will be distributed based on the actual profitability of the partnership.
If the profit reaches a certain level, you can get 10% of the profit, otherwise it will be a 50-50 split. What do you think?"
After hearing this, Datuk pondered in his heart.
Although this plan did not meet his requirement of 60%, it brought more benefits than a 50-50 split, and there was also the possibility of additional profit.
Otherwise, the profits would be divided up by the boss, and I and my brothers would only have soup but no meat.
"Mr. Gu, I can consider your plan. But I have one condition. During the cooperation period, you, Gu's, must guarantee the quality of the goods and the stability of supply. Otherwise, I have the right to unilaterally terminate the cooperation and ask you to compensate for the losses." said Datuk.
Gu Chenxin smiled and nodded: "Dato, it seems that you still hope that we can cooperate? I can agree to this condition. We in the Gu Group have always valued credibility. Since we have decided to cooperate, we will definitely go all out."
At this moment, Pakun suddenly said, "Wait, Father, we can't agree to him so easily. We need to think about it again."
Datuk glanced at Pakun and felt a little unhappy.
He thought the cooperation was almost finalized, but Pakun was still creating complications.
"Pakun, do you have any concerns? Tell us and we can discuss it together." said Datuk.
Pa Kun hesitated for a moment and said, "Father, I always feel that Gu's cooperation with us is not honest enough. We can't sign the contract so rashly."
Gu Chenxin and Yi Chen were both furious after hearing this.
Gu Chenxin suppressed the anger in his heart. If Yi Chen hadn't persuaded him, he would have given up the negotiation long ago.
Anyway, the information has been sent out.
Gu's profits are not solely maintained by cooperation with them.
"Pakun, we at Gu's have always been sincere in discussing cooperation, without hiding anything. If you have any questions, then let's not discuss it."
Pa Kun looked at Gu Chenxin, his eyes full of suspicion:
"Mr. Gu, don't be anxious. I heard that your Gu Group has been in contact with other forces recently and seems to be discussing similar cooperation projects. How do you explain it?"
Gu Chenxin was shocked. He didn't expect that Pa Kun would know about this.
But he quickly calmed down and said:
"Pakun, this is just some normal business contact, there is no substantive cooperation.
If you are not sincere, there will naturally be many people who want to cooperate with you. Who wouldn't want to take a bite of this fat piece of meat?"
Afterwards, Yi Chen handed the information he had collected to Pakun.
This was the list of Gu's partners that he and Gu Chenxin had specially prepared two days ago.
There are three big ones, and there are probably 40 to 50 organizations that are interested in cooperating.
"You're overthinking it. The Gu family is a business company, and having more contacts is also for the purpose of expanding their business. But this time, they must be sincere in their cooperation with us. Otherwise, Young Master Gu wouldn't risk his life to come to our door in person."
