Chapter 44 Drinking Culture: Bridging the Gap Between Parties
Qian Huaijin even specially prepared some hometown delicacies for him. They might not be the most authentic, but the thought behind them was there.
It's not like Saddam Hussein hasn't been to other countries to negotiate the purchase of weapons and equipment.
The other party was just giving me a perfunctory response.
No one could arrange things as thoroughly as Dong'an Machinery Factory.
In this situation, it would be a bit pretentious to refuse again.
Hai Shan then opened up and ate and drank with Qian Huaijin and others.
A few ounces of liquor is just a piece of cake for these "battle-hardened" warriors.
Driven by alcohol, their relationship deepened.
Deep feelings, a dull mouth.
The meal lasted an hour and a half. Afterward, Qian Huaijin arranged for Hai Shan and the others to rest at the guesthouse for an hour before continuing negotiations in the afternoon.
Qian Huaijin wanted to give Hai Shan and the others time to discuss.
Although Haishen wanted to finalize the weapons and equipment deal as soon as possible, an hour or two wouldn't make a difference.
Qian Huaijin had previously stated that if the contract was signed and the payment was made on the same day, Dong'an Machinery Factory could then issue the first batch of weapons and equipment on the same day.
It was that fast; it was delivered to the cargo ship in just three days.
It will take about twenty days to reach Persia.
Hai Shan accepted Qian Huaijin's arrangement, and the group went to the guesthouse to rest for a while.
And let's discuss the next round of negotiations.
I was too hasty just now, and the discussion was a bit disorganized.
I need to reorganize my thoughts.
……
Qian Huaijin and the others watched as the car carrying Hai Shan left Dong'an Machinery Factory.
Immediately afterwards, Qian Zhizhou and Qian Huaijin returned to the office.
Qian Zhizhou specially poured Qian Huaijin a cup of hot tea.
Qian Zhizhou came to know his son anew.
It was originally agreed that Qian Zhizhou would be the main drinker.
Qian Huaijin used the excuse that he was under eighteen years old to avoid drinking.
As a result, Qian Huaijin drank more alcohol than Qian Zhizhou.
It seems Qian Huaijin hasn't had enough to drink yet.
Zhang Yi'an, standing to the side, kept adding fuel to the fire, jokingly saying, "Director Qian, Huaijin's drinking capacity is just like yours!"
"He drinks without saying a word, just pouring it straight down his throat. Is his alcohol tolerance innate?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Zhizhou rolled his eyes and became utterly speechless.
Qian Huaijin chuckled sheepishly and said, "Uncle Zhang, please don't laugh at me. If I didn't drink, how could Haishan and the others have drunk so much?"
"I also really dislike the drinking culture, but there's no way around it; it's the fastest way to build rapport."
If he could conduct business without drinking, Qian Huaijin would definitely choose not to drink.
After all, drinking alcohol is harmful to health; this is a consensus among everyone.
"Huaijin, you really are a master of disguise!"
Zhang Yi'an gave a thumbs up and praised him highly.
"How about next time, Uncle Zhang, you help me out, and I'll drink less?"
"The factory will give you a big bonus at the end of the year."
Qian Huaijin got straight to the point.
If Zhang Yi'an is willing to help him fend off drinking, Qian Huaijin wouldn't mind mentioning it and giving Zhang Yi'an a big red envelope at the end of the year.
"No, no, no, I can't handle that much alcohol."
Seeing Qian Huaijin's previous drinking behavior, Zhang Yi'an directly refused his request.
Zhang Yi'an couldn't handle that kind of drinking.
There's money to be made, but nobody spends it.
Laughter immediately filled the office.
Everyone who sees it will feel intimidated.
Seeing that the atmosphere had improved and was no longer lifeless, Qian Zhizhou went straight to the point: "Huaijin, you did a good job in this negotiation. I will speak with the higher-ups about it later."
Qian Zhizhou then scanned the crowd and said, "If you can also secure orders for the company next time, I will recommend you to your superiors for recognition."
After Qian Zhizhou finished speaking, a deafening round of applause erupted in the office.
Gaining the appreciation of superiors is more important than anything else right now.
If you want to get promoted, you have to show your superiors your abilities.
They only know how to do hard labor, but they don't know how to conduct themselves in society.
There can only be one outcome...
Be upright in your conduct, but humble in your work.
Everything must be "eye-catching".
"We were very successful in the negotiations this morning. If Persia signs a contract with us, our Dong'an Machinery Factory will have plenty of working capital, and many of your projects will be able to start."
Qian Zhizhou addressed all the senior executives of Dong'an Machinery Factory present.
In the past, many projects could not be launched one by one due to funding issues, so we could only choose to invest in better projects.
It wasn't that their ideas weren't good, but that Dong'an Machinery Factory didn't have enough funds.
And the leaders themselves lived "very frugal" lives, wishing they could spend ten or a hundred dollars on every penny.
Military spending has been cut, some projects have been cancelled, data has been archived, and research and development teams have been disbanded.
Everything must give way to the economy.
We've been poor for so many years already; if we continue to be poor, we'll all be sinners in history.
……
Upon hearing Qian Zhizhou announce the launch of some outstanding projects, the senior executives of Dong'an Machinery Factory present excitedly shouted, "Thank you, Factory Director!"
This is also an opportunity to show off in front of superiors.
If a higher-level leader values their abilities, they might be transferred or otherwise...
After Qian Zhizhou painted a rosy picture for the senior executives of Dong'an Machinery Factory and united those he could, his position became quite secure.
Then there will be no one challenging my authority.
This will enable me to carry out my work more effectively in the future.
He doesn't want anything to be restricted.
"Huaijin, will there be results from Persia this afternoon?"
Qian Zhizhou turned and glanced at Qian Huaijin beside him, asking in a less firm tone.
As long as the contract hasn't been signed and the purchase payment hasn't been transferred, they can back out anytime soon.
Even after signing a contract, there's always the possibility of backing out!
Besides, it's just talk.
"It should be fine. The current situation is quite unfavorable for Persia. Even without the support of a group of Western countries, Persia might not have been able to withstand the enemy's attack in the early stages."
"Of course, the terrain of Persia constrained the Kingdom of Yinke, but it also gave the former plenty of breathing room."
"Just like before, we can trade space for time."
The natural geographical advantages gave the Persian Empire a chance to regroup.
As long as the Persian leadership does not surrender, it will be virtually impossible for Yin Ke to conquer the entire country.
Even major powers might not be able to defeat them in the end.
If a major power were to send 500,000 to 600,000 troops in, there might be a chance.
But it's just a chance; whether it will actually happen depends on various circumstances.
"Should we report this to our superiors?"
The person in charge of this negotiation was Qian Huaijin.
He has absolute authority.
The higher-ups had complete confidence in Qian Huaijin.
Qian Huaijin handled the previous negotiations for 120 million US dollars better than anyone else.
