"Okay, okay, okay. We'll talk about this later. I have a guest to attend to. You go out first. I'll talk to you later!" Bi Ruide said.
"Don't patronize me. I've been a BMW employee for 30 years. What right do you have to patronize me?" Hans actually looked down on Bi Ruide from the bottom of his heart.
After all, this guy used to be a professor and had only worked at BMW for five or six years. He actually sat in the position of chairman. Hans, on the other hand, had worked for BMW for more than 30 years and was only a vice president of a region.
Usually, Hans would bear with these dissatisfaction. However, he couldn't take it anymore, especially after hearing Bi Ruide's perfunctory reply. This made him even more furious. Even the bandage on his head gradually turned red.
"We have to solve the problem now. Immediately!" Hans shouted. The quarrel between the two sides made the employees near the office unable to help but peek over.
"What do you mean solve the problem!" Bi Ruide was also angry. "This is clearly your mistake, and you're blaming it on me! Well, let me ask you. You've already signed the contract on behalf of the Bavarian Machinery Factory. "
"The contract is in black and white. Every clause stipulates that after signing the contract and transferring the money, we have to fulfill the contract truthfully. Otherwise, it's a breach of contract and we have to pay three times the penalty!"
"You want me to stop fulfilling the contract? Then let me ask you, who will pay the three billion USD penalty?"
"They lied to me. Why should we pay?" Hans said angrily.
"If you have the ability to say this to the judge, do you think the judge will listen to you?" Bi Ruide stood at the door of the office and yelled at Hans, "The Indians and the Huaxia people came to negotiate with us separately. They didn't negotiate together. One contract, one trap. Who can prove that they colluded with each other? Can you find a complete chain of evidence to prove it?"
"Also, even if you can find a chain of evidence, it has no meaning because this doesn't meet the requirements of contract fraud at all. Even if you go to the United States, no judge will support our claims. On the contrary, the entire Bavarian Machinery Factory will become a joke in the industry. We will become a stupid fool, and you, Hans, will become a synonym for stupidity. Do you understand?" Bi Ruide's angry rebuke made Hans shiver.
Just now, everything had gone too smoothly, causing Hans to lose his rationality.
In the end, after being scolded by Bi Ruide and pointed out the problem, Hans realized that he was too reckless. It was impossible for him to not fulfill the contract on the surface.
Even if they wanted to stop the Indians, they would have to use methods such as delay, change, delay, etc. It would be disgusting during the actual handover process. However, things like not fulfilling the contract were absolutely not allowed. Otherwise, the court would make the company understand what the law was.
"..." Hans, who had finally regained his senses, wanted to leave immediately. But when he thought of how aggressive he was just now, Hans didn't know how to walk away. It was too embarrassing.
Moreover, after today's incident, not to mention the position of chairman, I'm afraid I won't even have the position of vice president in China anymore.
Although the company probably wouldn't fire an old employee like him, he might have to run to some dark corner to spend the rest of his life. This made Hans feel incomparable despair.
"It's Mr. Hans outside!" At this extremely awkward moment, a voice came from the conference room. "If it's Mr. Hans, then let him in. We are old friends."
The other party spoke Chinese, so Hans could hear it. Then, the words were translated into German by another voice. Bi Ruide also understood it.
"Since the guest wants to see you, you can come in!" Bi Ruide waved his hand, and Hans walked in hesitantly.
Just now, Hans desperately wanted to go in, but now he didn't want to go in at all. After calming down, Hans understood that all of his ugly behavior had been exposed in front of the guests. It was obviously embarrassing to go in at this time.
But now, Hans didn't dare to continue to offend Bi Ruide. He could only walk in helplessly and then saw the guests in Bi Ruide's chairman's office.
"It's you!" Seeing the faces of the guests, Bi Ruide stood up immediately, pointed at his nose in disbelief, and exclaimed, "Haven't you been fired by the Daqian? Why are you here?! "
"Haha!" Boss Jia smiled slightly. On the other side, Bi Ruide frowned and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Don't you know that the person sitting in front of you is Mr. Jia Yapeng, the chairman of the Daqian Group? How could he be fired by the Daqian Group? Do you think he's Steve Jobs? "
"He's Jia Yapeng!!!" Hans was shocked and completely froze on the spot.
"Haha, Mr. Chairman, you don't have to blame Mr. Hans, because he really doesn't know me. He has always thought that I'm an ordinary employee of the Daqian Group, one of the members of the delegation that came to negotiate this time!" Boss Jia explained with a smile.
"That's impossible!" Bi Ruide showed an expression of disbelief. "Hans is the vice president of our Greater China region. How could he not know Mr. Jia?"
"Haha, maybe my appearance is not worth looking at in Mr. Bi Ruide's eyes! I'm not a panda, why do all foreigners have to know me? "Boss Jia said with a smile, while Hans was sweating all over.
"Oh my god, I finally understand why I lost so badly. I actually handed the negotiation over to a guy who doesn't even know what the chairman of the Daqian Group looks like. What have you been doing in Hua Xia for two years? When you were negotiating, didn't you know to check the chairman's photo of the Daqian Group's chairman?!" Bi Ruide was furious at this time, and Hans wanted to find a hole to hide in.
However, Hans could not be blamed. After all, it had not completely entered the Internet era. It was not easy to find a photo of Boss Jia on the Internet in Hua Xia. Boss Jia's photo usually appeared in newspapers or news programs. If Hans wanted to find it, it would take a lot of time.
"But Chairman Jia, I don't quite understand why you came to see me today. What is your intention?" Bi Ruide first scolded Hans, then turned to stare at Jia Yapeng. "You came to see me today not only to announce your cleverness, but also to disgust our Mr. Hans and take revenge on him for disrespecting you!"
"Mr. Jia, if you think Hans has offended you, you can come to see me directly. I'll deal with this matter. You shouldn't have teased our company by tearing our Land Rover into two parts and using only one billion dollars to buy our assets worth two billion dollars! "Bi Ruide said, looking very upset.
"Wait, the Land Rover was bought by the Daqian Group? Wasn't it bought by an Indian? " Hans, who was standing at the side, was stunned again. At this moment, he felt like a complete idiot.
