Chapter 291 Beauty Trap
In a business negotiation, what is the best outcome?
Nothing is better than win-win and win-win for all.
All parties involved can benefit from it, there is no need for anyone to make concessions, and everyone is happy.
What is Luo Yang best at?
Ever since he helped Liu Haishan speculate in real estate in Jinlanyuan, he was able to create a win-win or even multi-win situation for all parties involved almost every time.
"Although we have our own issues regarding cooperation with Naixue, I do have an opportunity for cooperation here. I wonder if Chu Xing and Director Dong are interested?"
"Oh?"
Perhaps because of his age, Chu Junliang is more stable in character than Dong Xuan.
He patiently asked, "What kind of opportunity?"
"I have a project on hand, and I was planning to start it later, but today I happened to meet Chu Xing and Director Dong, so it can be considered an opportunity."
Luo Yang smiled and said, "I want to borrow 3000-5000 million from your bank. I wonder if there is room for negotiation on this matter."
He wasn't asking if there was any room for negotiation on the loan.
It's clearly asking: Is it okay to exchange it with this condition?
Since Sunshine Electronics bought all the related technologies of the selfie stick from Kunpeng Technology, it immediately began applying for patents.
So far, Sunshine Electronics has obtained 15 utility model patent applications and 17 design patent applications for selfie sticks.
Currently, there is only one new technology invention patent still under review. If you calculate the time, it will definitely be approved within this year.
The deal was basically settled with Tang Hailin some time ago. By April or May, if nothing goes wrong, we will be able to get a small piece of land, about ten to twenty acres.
This area is enough, and Luo Yang has no intention of seriously engaging in the production and sales of selfie sticks anyway.
The reason for building a factory and carrying out production and sales on a certain scale is to prepare for future patent lawsuits.
The actual amount of funds needed is only about 1500 million to 2000 million.
The extra money from the loan can be used to pay a 30%-50% down payment on a foreclosed property, which is quite attractive.
"Mr. Luo, what project do you need a loan for?"
Dong Xuan's expression changed in a second, and now she was smiling again: "I don't mean anything else, I just asked casually. I believe that with your ability, Mr. Luo, it will be easy to approve a loan of 5000 million."
"A product related to smartphones has obtained 32 patents so far."
Luo Yang casually pointed to the iPhone 4 on the table and said, "The product is related to it. Of course, the new project has no valuable fixed assets except land and factory buildings, so we have to use the equity of other companies as collateral."
There is nothing to hesitate about. If we can say this, the equity we are giving out must be worth the price.
With opinions coming in and out, a balance is reached in the interests of both parties.
Luo Yang got the loan just in time to start the selfie stick project, which also solved his financial problem of buying a foreclosed house.
The Shanghai Branch of Ningbo Bank obtained an additional loan of 5000 million yuan, and also revitalized some idle assets caused by bankruptcy.
A win-win situation is created.
"After this incident, I admire Mr. Luo even more!"
Dong Xuan knew that Youxin's emotions just now were inappropriate, so she raised her glass to toast him: "In today's business circle, apart from the big guys with deep interests, it is rare to see a boss like you who adheres to the bottom line of cooperation."
In fact, is Luo Yang as morally upright as Dong Xuan praises him to be?
It's just that the profit is too small. What if ten million is exchanged for one billion?
How can human nature withstand temptation?
If the bottom line is adhered to, most of the reasons are not due to morality, but because there is not enough temptation.
But everyone present obviously agreed with this.
Including An Ying.
Luo Yang didn't bother about Dong Xuan's attitude just now. After all, before she put forward a win-win solution, he looked like he was trying to take advantage of her.
The two of them drank a glass of wine happily, and the atmosphere became more harmonious.
Cong Shanshan was obviously unwilling to be lonely. She stood up with a glass of wine in her hand, walked to Luo Yang, and smiled sweetly: "Mr. Luo, you will be my VIP customer from now on. I must toast you with this glass of wine. I'll drink it. You can do whatever you want!"
Can Luo Yang really do whatever he wants?
Maybe, but definitely not when it comes to drinking.
An Ying, who was standing by, came to her senses immediately. She was not paying attention just now and the two women from Yongcheng Bank were floating up again.
I did it, you can do whatever you want.
Haha, so uncultured!
Obviously she was thinking of Li Bai's "Drinking Song".
The dinner ended around 8:30. Considering that Luo Yang and An Ying had both been drinking, Dong Xuan considerately asked the driver of the Xijiao Hotel to help drive the guests back.
Before leaving, we agreed to go to Tomson One to look at houses tomorrow afternoon.
When he returned to the rental house in Songjiang, Luo Yang was thinking about one thing: Was He Maosong a little exaggerating? Where was the beauty trap?
As a result, he got into trouble the next day.
I originally thought that Dong Xuan would be there, but unexpectedly only Cong Shanshan came.
At first I didn’t take it seriously because my mind was focused on looking at houses.
No matter how others criticize the quality of Tomson One, its location is indeed incomparable, and it is a real first-line river view apartment.
Especially in terms of apartment design, this 363-square-meter large flat transcends the current era.
Standing in the large living room of more than 60 square meters, you can have a panoramic view of the Huangpu River and the Bund in Puxi not far away through the panoramic floor-to-ceiling curtain wall.
“The decoration here is pretty good.”
After calming down his surging emotions, Luo Yang turned around and said to Cong Shanshan, "Manager Cong, it seems that few people have lived in this room?"
"The owner of this house, Mr. Chen, does foreign trade business in Europe. After the subprime mortgage crisis in 08, the European economy was also affected, and the European debt crisis broke out, causing problems for his company."
Cong Shanshan is about meters tall. She wore high heels today. When she stood on Luo Yang's right side, she seemed only half a head shorter.
She explained in detail: "When I mortgaged this house, it had just been renovated for three months. During this period, I used it to get rid of the odor. I didn't even have time to hold the house-moving ceremony. So in practical terms, this is equivalent to a fully decorated new house!"
“So when the foreclosure auction is estimated, will the renovation be included in the total price?”
"I heard from Mr. Chen that he spent more than three million on decoration alone. We will definitely calculate it when the time comes. As for how much it will be calculated?"
Cong Shanshan looked sideways at Luo Yang: "I can still do some work."
This is asking for a kickback. Luo Yang immediately showed an understanding smile on his face: "How much do you need?" "That depends on how generous you are, Mr. Luo."
Cong Shanshan didn't say the number directly, but the smile on her face became sweeter, and when she said this, she leaned forward.
"?"
It's nothing more than an exchange of interests, is it necessary to use your body?
"Mr. Luo, you will be my VIP customer from now on."
Cong Shanshan was wearing a long woolen coat today, but she took it off after entering the house.
Now, she was wearing a silk shirt with a lace collar, tucked into a hip-hugging miniskirt. With the pads of her high heels, she could put her arms around Luo Yang without having to stand on tiptoe.
Face to face, she said in a sweet voice: "From now on, my performance bonus, promotion and salary increase will all depend on you."
Gee.
Are you so open-minded?
He Maosong was indeed not exaggerating.
"Wouldn't it be better to just take the money?"
Luo Yang was not afraid of ambiguity. He pinched Cong Shanshan's slender waist with one hand and gently pushed her to the waist-high partition in front of the floor-to-ceiling curtain wall and said, "With your looks, are you afraid that you won't meet more big clients?"
"Boss Luo, you overestimate the position of business manager."
Cong Shanshan smiled bitterly: "You underestimated the density of beautiful women in the financial circle."
"Oh?"
Luo Yang suddenly became curious.
He had heard a lot of rumors from developed self-media in his previous life, but he didn't really know much about this industry, so he smiled and asked, "What's the rumor?"
“The financial world is also divided into different levels.”
Cong Shanshan said frankly: "Investment banks are at the top. Those engaged in financing, mergers and acquisitions, securities issuance and other businesses have the highest income. The next is funds, which are also divided into hedge, private equity and public equity. Then there are securities and finally bank employees."
“Is the gap big?”
"Let me put it this way. The salary and bonus a junior employee of an investment bank gets every year is equivalent to my four years of hard work!"
Cong Shanshan sighed and said, "This is based on the premise that my business performance is good."
"Two or three hundred thousand a year?"
"more or less."
The little woman was also restless when she spoke.
Although her slender waist was pinched and her upper body could not move, one of her legs had been wrapped around Luo Yang's leg at some point.
"For ordinary people, this income may not be low, but this is the Magic City!"
Cong Shanshan slightly turned sideways, turned her head to look at the Bund across the Huangpu River, and was stunned for a while.
Turning back to face Luo Yang again, he continued, "I joined a bank after graduating from Shanghai University of Finance and Economics. I worked hard for three years and used my savings and family savings to buy a house worth more than five million yuan in Shanghai. Now I have to pay more than 2 yuan every month. What you see of me is just a glamorous appearance."
Everyone has his own difficulties. It is not expected that he will become kind-hearted just by telling him about them.
"so what?"
“So I want to climb up.”
Cong Shanshan said with a longing look on her face: "Look at Director Dong. He has made it. Now he has an annual official income of 700,000 to 800,000 yuan. He can easily own a house, a car, and luxury goods. He can attend celebrity cocktail parties and go on vacation in Hainan on weekends. This is the exquisite life I want!"
Luo Yang was stunned; "You don't expect me to help you, do you?"
"Looking at the near term, you can bring me business, continuous business."
Cong Shanshan said without any hesitation: "Looking further ahead, you have connections with the top management of Yongcheng Bank. Sometimes a word from the top can determine the promotion of the people below."
These straightforward words actually left Luo Yang speechless.
Perhaps she misinterpreted his facial expression, Cong Shanshan immediately explained: "Don't worry, Mr. Luo, I just broke up with my boyfriend in college not long ago."
Luo Yang: “.”
I didn't mean to ask that, okay?
"It's not surprising. Once you enter this circle, this day will come sooner or later. Everyone knows it in their hearts. It's better to break up early so that each other will not be burdened."
Cong Shanshan clung to him even tighter, and her voice began to sound sickening: "Boss Luo, for you, just a little bit of resources leaking out from between your fingers is enough for me to eat my fill. By the way, you can also have me who obeys you in everything. What are you waiting for?"
After all, it's still the youth and wealth that are at work.
If Luo Yang was a boss in his fifties or sixties, Cong Shanshan would not be so proactive. Even her half-hearted agreement would require a period of self-hypnosis.
If you don't seize the opportunity when it comes, are you going to wait to serve an old man?
While Luo Yang was distracted, the hand around his waist loosened a little, and the little woman suddenly came up to him.
Before she could struggle a few times, she felt a tightening around her slender waist and was pinched again.
Cong Shanshan's face suddenly showed a complicated expression. Before she could say anything further, she was slapped on the butt.
Then the neck was grabbed and an irresistible force pressed down.
The woman's extremely disappointed expression immediately turned into ecstasy, and she no longer needed Luo Yang to give any instructions.
Standing in front of the panoramic French windows, looking at the row of foreign buildings on the Bund and the ant-sized traffic.
Is this the real life that can only be experienced in a mansion?
I withdrew my gaze from the distance and lowered my head, just in time to meet a pair of charming eyes.
Even if the person with these eyes has no idea when Luo Yang will look at him, he will still concentrate and be ready to please him at any time.
A true man is born between heaven and earth. He should be awake to hold the power of the world, and drunk to lie on the lap of a beauty.
Suddenly, I felt like I was in control of everything.
Illusion, everything is an illusion!
More than an hour later, looking at the debris on the ground in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, Luo Yang in the sage time suddenly woke up.
Sure enough, big cities can wear down people's will.
My future is not in Shanghai, but in my hometown.
Is it not too much to ask for a monthly ticket for this chapter?
