Reborn 1980, Mountains Have Spirits, I Have Fields

Zhuo Lin made an opening introduction, introducing the situation of the company and the joint farming of strawberries.The harvest of strawberries this year made them want to try the export business of jam.

Before finishing speaking, Xie Genbao pushed the strawberry into the conference room.

The strawberries just taken out of the refrigerator have a hint of coolness.Stacked in two crystal cups, forming a beautiful mountain shape.

The whole body of strawberry is bright red and the shape of fruit is perfect.It is bigger than ordinary strawberries.

As for their taste, they completely conquered the foreign guests: this is not the magic of the Chinese, it turns out that the top strawberries make the top strawberry jam!
Ai Sen was excited in his heart, but his face remained calm: Looking at the generous appearance of the Chinese, it is obvious that they don't know how precious these strawberries are!
Simon was equally excited: It seems that a big leak can be picked up today?
Zhuo Lin went on to introduce the varieties of strawberry jam: "Our strawberry jam does not contain any additives except strawberries and rock sugar. So the shelf life is only about four months. Because foreign countries have a relatively high tolerance for sugar, we made three types of sweetness. Strawberry jam."

"A sweet version that suits the tastes of Westerners, a sweet version that is slightly less sweet, and a healthy version with very little sugar. What you tasted just now is the sweet version."

The foreign guests tasted the other two kinds of strawberry jam immediately, and Eisen sighed: "My mother must like the sweet version."

Simon also said: "My girlfriend will definitely choose the healthy version."

Aisen glanced at him: "Which girlfriend are you?"

Subtle chuckles suddenly sounded in the conference room.

Simon blushed without heartbeat: "My girlfriend won't bother you." He knocked on the table, "Director Zhuo, it's the same question as before, how much fresh stock do you have now?"

Zhuo Lin said: "By the end of May, we can deliver about 10 catties of strawberry jam."

Foreign guests are very satisfied with this quantity.Aisen's eyes are on strawberry bottles and cans. A 250g bottle can hold 20 bottles per [-] catties.This amount is neither too much nor too little, and you can eat it all.

Simon smiled and said, "Everyone is very satisfied with the quality of the strawberry jam. Should we talk about the price next?"

Zhuo Lin looked at Ling Mei.

Lingmei had discussed pricing with him before.When Zhuo Lin was in the United States, ordinary large jars of strawberry jam only cost 2-3 dollars.The most expensive strawberry jam in the supermarket is also under $10.Calculated by boiling two catties of strawberries into one catty of strawberry jam, and excluding packaging, transportation and OEM costs, the cost price of strawberry jam must be at least 18 yuan to be equal to the price of fresh strawberries.At today's exchange rates, that equates to around $9 for a bottle of strawberry jam.

This price is relatively expensive even for Americans.But Lingmei insists on high prices: our strawberry jam is the only one in the world that tastes so good.Not to mention that the nutritional content of strawberries moistened by the spiritual spring in space is unmatched by all strawberry jams.So she insisted that the price should not be lower than 20 yuan a bottle.

Although Zhuo Lin believes that homemade strawberry jam is definitely worth the price, if foreigners don’t accept it, it’s useless.

Lingmei took out a report on the nutritional content of strawberry jam issued by the Guangzhou Food Inspection Bureau.

There must be no quality errors in the food sold abroad.Mr. Zhong had to send samples for inspection, and Ling Mei only got the report results last night.

Strawberry jam perfectly retains the important nutrients in strawberries. The high content of vitamin C, glucose, and carotene is astonishing.

This food test report shocked the foreign guests, but also raised their vigilance: So the Chinese prove the preciousness of Xianyun Mountain strawberries from another angle?

Can't they find it cheap?
Aisen and Simon put down the test report, and put on some heavy faces with the same expressions: "So, your price is——"

Ling Mei remained calm.The battle-tested foreigners have long learned how to bargain in China.The reason why she bids is to be higher, and to pay back the money at a high price, so as to increase the foreigner's sense of accomplishment.

Without blushing, she quoted the price: "20 yuan a bottle."

Eisen and Simon looked at each other silently.

The conference room fell into an eerie silence.

Translator Gao also moved his body in surprise, and quickly calculated the exchange rate in his mind——according to the quality of strawberry jam, this price is not too much.But can foreign guests accept it?
The two foreign guests stood up and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Xiao. We need to discuss your price alone."

Lingmei was also beating drums in her heart: Could it be that the price she asked was really high?
She smiled without changing her face and said: "No problem. But please try to answer me as much as possible. I believe there is already a long queue for my booth."

Aisen immediately said: "Of course. Just a few minutes."

After speaking, he and Robert held Simon hostage to find another conference room. The three of them locked the door, and Robert clenched his fists and whispered, "20 yuan, did you hear that?"

"I heard it." Simon blushed with excitement, "Did she say US dollars or RMB? Eisen? Did I hear it wrong?"

"Of course I heard it right. What she said was RMB!" Aisen calmed down, and his face turned red. "Under $10 a bottle. We're making money!"

Simon was even worried about Lingmei: "If she asks this price, can she make a profit?"

Robert rolled his eyes at him: "Is this your first time at the Canton Fair? Don't you know about China's foreign trade subsidies? She can definitely make money."

He added: "Even in the United States, this kind of strawberry is top-notch. They are very smart. Instead of selling it cheaply in China, it is better to make jam and sell it abroad."

Eisen regretted not being able to make a huge profit from strawberries: "It's a pity. If it is sold in the United States, this kind of strawberry should be sold by piece! Each piece sells for one dollar!"

Simon also sighed: "Who made Zhang Ji's strawberries too delicate to be transported long distances?"

After the three communicated, they began to argue about how to distribute.

"Half for each person." Eisen was very generous.

"Why?!" Simon refused. "I was the first to find the treasure. I should have taken the lead."

"But I remember that your company's performance last year was not the best - did you bring enough money?"

Simon choked: "You can pay in installments. How about it, I'll be six and you four."

Aisen shook his head: "Simon, I'm already fair. I can definitely increase the price to get an exclusive agency."

Simon jumped up and cursed the goddamn guy.

Robert comforted him: "One hundred thousand bottles of strawberry jam, you've already made a lot of money."

Simon snorted coldly: "To each other."

"But how can there be no counter-offer in business? She must have room to lower the price. I think she can accept 15 yuan."

"That's right. I thought so too."

When the three of them returned to the conference room, they began to bargain with serious faces.After some verbal confrontation, the two parties finally agreed to trade at a price of 17 yuan a bottle.
