Chapter 196: Well-woven trap

"Mr. Zhao, the conference room is ready. You can take the guests there directly."

A sweet-looking girl dressed as a secretary came over and bowed.

She is the assistant to the general manager of this hotel, and makes a temporary guest appearance as the secretary to Mr. Zhao of Swift Technology.

"Um."

Chef Zhao nodded very reservedly and made a sound through his nostrils.

Lu Shang secretly observed it, and he found that all the employees of this fast technology are all beauties. Mr. Zhao really knows how to enjoy it. He will have to do this when he has money in the future.

"By the way, Boss Lu, how many arcade machines do you plan to purchase? Our company only accepts orders for more than a hundred units. If the quantity is too small, I can help you introduce several small companies."

Chef Zhao opened the door of the conference room and asked in a casual tone.

Lu Shang instantly felt a sense of humiliation that he had been looked down upon. He rubbed his neck, slapped his face on his face and said, "We plan to purchase two hundred units."

In fact, he and Jiang Guangming originally discussed that they planned to purchase fifty units first to test the waters and then expand the scale if the business was good.

But since I walked into this fast technology company, I was stimulated by the generosity shown by the other party inadvertently. I subconsciously did not want Mr. Zhao to look down on me, so I privately expanded the number of purchased units several times.

"That's okay. You can't make much money with an order of two hundred units, but in business, you can't be too short on money."

Chef Zhao muttered to himself.

Lu Shang's eyes flashed with embarrassment. Before he came, he inquired about the market price of arcade machines. A complete machine costs more than 10,000 yuan, and two hundred arcade machines are a business of more than 2 million yuan. Unexpectedly, in the eyes of Mr. Zhao, it has become a big deal.

Make money with small business.

In fact, he doesn't understand the market of arcade machines. Like Jiang Hua, he buys original motherboards and assembles them himself. The cost of an arcade machine is only a few thousand yuan. Anyone who is willing to buy an entire arcade machine for more than 10,000 yuan is just a fool who does not understand the industry.

"Mr. Zhao, I have debugged several prototypes here, and customers can experience them at any time."

Xiao Qian, the driver who acted as the company's technician, came over and said respectfully.

The several arcade machines in the conference room were temporarily bought by Xu Li to show off. They are all second-hand goods, but the motherboards are imported and are stronger than most arcade machines on the market.

Lu Shang had never been exposed to arcade machines, so he went to play a few games and found them quite fun. No wonder the arcade in Jianghua was such a booming business.

"Mr. Zhao, I am purchasing two hundred units at once. Do you have any discounts here?"

Lu Shang felt that it was too painful to take out more than two million at once.

The most important thing is that he himself has little money, and Jiang Guangming has to pay a large share of the money. He just boasted too much and has a headache. How will he explain it to his brother-in-law later?

"Two hundred units is not a big order. I won't make any money. There will be no discounts."

Chef Zhao was in a lack of interest and looked like he didn't want to buy anything.

Then, he added: "You have a boss over there, Mr. Jiang, who called yesterday and said he wanted to order another 500 units. You and he are from the same place. I thought you wanted to buy at least 500 units.

If I had known it was a small order of 200 units, I would have asked the salesperson below to receive it."

Jianghua actually wants to order another 500 units?

Lu Shang was startled, feeling a sense of urgency and a little embarrassed at the same time. Fortunately, he didn't say that he wanted to buy fifty units, otherwise he might have been driven away by Mr. Zhao.

The more Chef Zhao has a do-it-or-buy attitude, the more he wants to buy it. His attitude shows that he is a big company that is not short of money, and the quality of the arcade machines is absolutely guaranteed.

"Mr. Zhao, I have to go out and make a phone call to discuss it with my partner."

Lu Shang said with an embarrassed expression after trying out several arcade machines.

"Go on, go on. I'm a little sleepy. I'm going to take a nap. After you've discussed it, go directly to my secretary, Xiao Li."

Chef Zhao waved his hand nonchalantly, leaving Lu Shang alone in the conference room, and went back to the presidential suite next to him.

Lu Shang felt a little aggrieved. He didn't expect that the one who spent money would become a grandson, and the one who made money would become an uncle. But there was no way, who would let others have the strength?

If he wanted to compete with Jianghua, of course he couldn't use junk arcade machines from small manufacturers, so he decided on this company, Swift Technology.

Arriving at the front desk of the hotel lobby, Lu Shang borrowed a landline phone to call Jiang Guangming.

"Brother-in-law, I have inspected Xunjie Technology. It is a very powerful company. In addition, I also found out that Jianghua has ordered another 500 arcade machines."

When Lu Shang was on the phone, he didn't notice that the smiling girl at the front desk was eavesdropping on his phone call.

This Haitian Isse Hotel was originally owned by Jianghua. It could be said that the entire hotel was owned by Jianghua people. No matter where Lu Shang went, his every move was watched.

"Five hundred arcade machines? He's planning to expand like crazy."

Jiang Guangming gasped on the phone.

He didn't know that opening an arcade was just a ticket-playing activity for Jianghua. His main business was not in this area, and he didn't know that his brother-in-law had fallen into a carefully crafted trap since the plane landed.

"Brother-in-law, we can't make a small fuss anymore, we must expand the scale and intercept him in all aspects."

Lu Shang cunningly concealed the fact that he was pretending to be fat and secretly expanded the number of units ordered.

"What you said makes sense. If we really let him open a chain of arcades, he will become a problem in the provincial capital. It will be more difficult for us to deal with him in the future."

Jiang Guangming's tone was serious.

"So, brother-in-law, how many units should we order?"

Lu Shang asked cautiously.

"I only have more than two million in hand. Can you borrow some money from Mr. Ma? Let's buy 500 arcade machines and play with Jiang."

Although Jiang Guangming is very cautious most of the time, he has been able to get to where he is today because he is a gambler in his heart and dares to play big games.

"Hey, brother-in-law, if you do something so big, there won't be any risks, right?"

Lu Shang took a breath of air. Now it was his turn to be timid, and he felt a little discouraged.

"Starve the timid to death and starve the bold to death. A place as big as the provincial capital cannot handle five hundred arcade machines?"

Once Jiang Guangming decides to do something, he will go all out.

"Okay, let's take a gamble, eat meat and drink soup, just this time."

Lu Shang was inspired and decided to borrow money to play a big game.

"Five million is not a small amount, you must pay attention to the quality of the arcade machine."

Jiang Guangming said something worried before hanging up the phone.

"I know it well. Besides, you haven't seen the size of their company. If you think five million is a lot, they may not take it seriously."

Lu Shang's tone was a little impatient.

After a trip to Shenzhen Market, he was stimulated by Chef Zhao. This rich man really knows how to enjoy things. When he gets rich in the future, he will have to play like this.

With confidence in his heart, Lu Shang once again went to discuss business with Mr. Zhao from Swift Technology. This time, Chef Zhao received him in the presidential suite.

"Well, the mainland is still not as good as Xiangjiang. I usually drink red wine, and I only drink Lafite from 1982. Unfortunately, it's not easy to buy here."

When Lu Shang entered, Chef Zhao was standing by the window with a glass of red wine and lamenting life.

This is the twentieth floor. Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at the ant-sized pedestrians below, I feel like I'm looking down on all living beings.

"Mr. Zhao, I just ordered a box of 1982 Lafite in Xiangjiang and asked a plane to fly it over."

The hotel assistant girl who plays Chef Zhao's secretary is also a drama queen and follows Chef Zhao's words very cooperatively.

Lu Shang originally planned to negotiate the price, after all, it was a big order of five million, but he was a little embarrassed to negotiate the price after being put off by Chef Zhao.
