Chapter 490 Fainted in the Toilet
On the other side, Qu Xiaoxiao followed Chen An's method and everything went very smoothly.
Although Yao Bin, as a second-generation worker, had never done this kind of thing before, he was still familiar with it.
At an intersection, he directly rear-ended a car rented by the GI brand, and then started to pick a fight. After the other party called the police, he naturally accepted the traffic police's handling with dissatisfaction, and this whole ordeal wasted more than 20 minutes.
There wasn't much traffic on this road, so we only set out half an hour early. By the time we arrived at Zhengxin Company, we were already half an hour late.
This always makes the Germans, who are very punctual, feel psychologically guilty.
Qu Xiaoxiao naturally showed great dissatisfaction and even deliberately used the Germans' reputation to bully the other party. Qu Lianjie, who was watching the fun, almost died of laughter.
But the following operation made Qu Lianjie speechless. When the German GI people saw that it was elevated to a national honor, they naturally gave some unfriendly explanations.
Qu Xiaoxiao's face-changing skills are comparable to those of Sichuan Opera. When she heard that the other party had a car accident, the GI people repeatedly stated that there was no problem and he was not injured.
However, Qu Xiaoxiao still insisted, and used the internal injuries she suffered in a car accident, which she did not cause at the time, but she died after sleeping at home, to scare the Germans. Although the other party had never heard of this, it was obvious that they still valued life very much.
The next step was simple. Qu Xiaoxiao personally took the other party to the hospital for examination and was busy all the time. Although the doctor said there was nothing serious, Qu Xiaoxiao still insisted on changing the negotiation time and asked the other party to have a good rest today. She would arrange someone to pick him up tomorrow.
After Qu Xiaoxiao's busy schedule, the few people felt reluctant to refuse her kindness, so they had to agree first.
The next step was easy. Qu Xiaoxiao invited a few people to have dinner together, saying that she had already booked a restaurant and it would be a waste if they didn't go.
During the dinner, Qu Xiaoxiao promoted China's traditional culture while praising Germany's advantages. Of course, these were all searched on the spur of the moment.
By the way, he flattered the Germans a little, saying that the Germans did not understand and that it was an agreement that was followed, and he even disregarded the physical risks and raised it to the level of a nation.
Several Germans felt very comfortable with Qu Xiaoxiao's flattery. In addition, there was no negotiation today, and Qu Xiaoxiao even suggested drinking to calm their nerves. Everything went on naturally, and it was perfect.
After the meal, Qu Xiaoxiao personally sent them back to the hotel where they were staying, and recommended some special foods to them like a friend. Then she left in a hurry to go to Andy's place. After all, no matter how successful the delay here was, the key still depended on Andy's action.
After waiting in the office for a long time, Andy finally finished his meeting.
"Andy, Andy, you must help me. I can only count on you now."
Andy quickly evaded Qu Xiaoxiao's enthusiasm with a tactical move, "Why do you smell like alcohol? And what exactly is going on? Your message is too vague."
Qu Xiaoxiao was a little depressed and quickly told everything that happened today.
Andy couldn't help but smile after hearing this. Chen An's idea was really unethical, but it really worked.
"OK, so the current situation is that you still have to continue negotiating with the GI people tomorrow, and you are worried that my plan won't work, so you come to me for a supplementary plan, right?" Andy asked, spreading his hands.
Qu Xiaoxiao thought Andy was angry, so she quickly explained, "Andy, it's not that I don't trust you, but the enemy is too powerful right now. I have to be more cautious. Even if I can't take down GI in the end, as long as I can have a perfect performance in front of my dad, that's enough. You must help me."
"You're right. If it was before, the plan I gave you would be sufficient, but under the current circumstances, the plan needs to be revised." Andy changed the subject, "However, I can only help you if I know both myself and the enemy. Don't tell me that you were so busy drinking with your clients that you forgot to investigate the rival company."
Qu Xiaoxiao quickly took out the sorted information from her bag and said, "These are all the information I can find at the moment. Take a look and see if you can find a suitable starting point."
Andy gave Qu Xiaoxiao a promising look, took the information and started reading.
Qu Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Brother Chen reminded her, otherwise she would have embarrassed herself in front of Andy again.
If Yao Bin knew what Qu Xiaoxiao was thinking at this moment, he would definitely faint in the toilet crying. He had worked so hard and put so much effort to find the information, but in the end the credit went to his love rival. Dogs have no human rights.
If Qu's father knew, he would definitely sigh that girls are extroverts.
After reading the information in her hand, Andy couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She has always been a very confident person at work. Although she is just helping, she will also try her best to do her best.
"Andy, how is it?" Qu Xiaoxiao asked worriedly.
Andy thought for a moment and said, "According to the information you provided, Jiali Air Conditioner is not as powerful as it looks."
"Originally, the profit margin of the air-conditioning industry is not very high, and most of it needs to be invested in technological innovation. Obviously, Jiali has fallen behind in technological innovation and has made many mistakes of traditional domestic companies, casting a wide net without focusing on catching fish. Its move into the real estate industry is a big failure."
"Their advantages lie in their production lines and sales channels. They can definitely form a subsidiary with GI. At that time, whether Jiali can obtain GI's core technical support in the future or not, it will be a sure win."
Andy chuckled. "But they also have many weaknesses. First of all, as a listed company, there must be more than one voice inside, and most shareholders value their own interests. So in order to ensure sufficient support, how many shares the joint venture can get is also a key to competition."
"For GI, although Jiali has many advantages and can solve their current problems, if the disadvantages outweigh the advantages, they need to consider it carefully."
Qu Xiaoxiao roughly understood what Andy meant, her eyes lit up and she asked excitedly, "You mean, I still have a chance, right?"
"Of course." Andy said confidently, "Relatively speaking, your company is small, but you have the support of your father's company. This is your advantage."
"We have some channel advantages, but we are not the ones who take over. Moreover, many foreign air-conditioning brands have the greatest technical advantage over domestic ones in terms of energy saving, which is in line with the overall environment."
This brings us to China's advantages. It has the most advanced power system in the world. In addition, the power grid is a state-owned enterprise, so electricity in China is quite cheap, costing only a few cents.
Most electricity suppliers in European and American countries are privately owned, so the costs are high and there is no government subsidy, so the sheep have to pay for it.
Take Germany for example. Its electricity prices are relatively cheap in Europe, but they are still four to five times higher than those in China, and in some places they are even ten times higher.
It just so happens that there is a great demand for air conditioners in Europe and the United States, and the installation rate is very high, but the utilization rate is relatively low, and they really cannot afford it.
This is very consistent with China's national conditions. Whether it is a company or an individual, energy saving is a good selling point.
Of course, this alone is not enough. Andy also provided additional explanations on many details, especially some questions that might be asked, which were listed one by one.
Qu Xiaoxiao deeply realized how naive she was to think she was well prepared. She was speechless for many questions raised by Andy. Fortunately, it was Andy who raised the questions. If it was the brand, she would have become a joke.
