Du Bo entered the reception room on the first floor of the office building and saw a few people sitting on the sofa.
There were two people on one side and three people on the other. They sat separately and were clearly separated.
They did not speak to each other, and the atmosphere was a little tense.
Wei Tao was also in the reception room. When he saw Du Bo, he immediately stood up and introduced the two groups of people.
Xiao Peng and the rest of the people from Tesla also stood up and greeted Du Bo.
Of course, Du Bo, as the boss of the chip factory, would definitely be the center of attention.
Du Bo was so young, only in his twenties, which surprised both groups of people.
However, it was secondary to not be young during the New Year. The key was to discuss business.
The leader of Little Peng's electric car team was Zhu Wenyu. He was in his thirties and the manager of the supply chain department.
The leader of the group was called Kelly Jiang. She was a woman in her thirties.
His name sounded like a foreigner, but he was actually an overseas returnee. He was also a manager at the Central Plains Company.
Du Bo was very curious about how Xiao Peng's electric bike and Tesla came to his door.
It had only been established less than two months ago, and its popularity was still low.
Actually, Du Bo had underestimated the electric bike industry.
In the future, electric vehicles would also play a prominent role in the country. The supply chain had long been thoroughly studied by the industry.
The news of the future electric car cooperation with Dubo Technologies had long spread.
Little Peng's electric bike was also suffering from a heart defect, so he quickly came over.
As for Tesla, as mentioned before, the situation was not good and he needed to make preparations.
Once the production of the chip was reduced or even stopped, it would have a huge impact on the stock price. At that time, it would be a big deal.
At this time, everyone had finished their greetings, and Du Bo let both parties sit down.
He also asked Wei Tao to arrange for more food and drinks.
Zhu Wenyu: " President Du, let's cut to the chase. We've already talked to President Wei and are ready to sign the contract, so we must give priority to our orders. Don't you think so?”
"Indeed…" Du Bo was startled.
Kelly Jiang shook her head and interrupted,"Boss Du, you can't say that. You've discussed it, but the contract hasn't been signed yet.”
"Besides, it's only half an hour before and after. What's the big deal if you're so early?" Kelly Jiang added.”
When Zhu Wenyu heard this, he was unhappy.""How can you say that? It was better to do it earlier. Even if they did not sign a contract, they would at least agree verbally. This was called a gentleman's agreement!”
Kelly Jiang pursed her lips." What gentleman's agreement? This isn't popular internationally."”
Zhu Wenyu was furious." This isn't internationally. This is domestically!"”
Du Bo had a headache.
These two weren't the middle and high-level managers of a big company. They were clearly giant babies.
However, they were obviously anxious.
Compared to the superficial courtesy, the chip was more important.
Without a core, the loss was not just a matter of money.
The development of electric vehicles in the Central Plains was too fast. They were all trying their best to conquer the market and gain a larger market share.
If they relaxed a little at this time, they would end up being slaughtered by others.
Even though Tesla was so awesome, the situation was not much better, so he wanted to squeeze in.
Du Bo stopped them and said,""You two, listen to me. It's good that we're all amiable.”
Zhu Wenyu smiled bitterly and said," President Du, we really can't be friendly now. Our inventory is about to bottom out. If we wait any longer, it won't be a reduction in production. It'll be a suspension of production!"”
Kelly Jiang glanced at Zhu Wenyu and muttered softly,""Acting pitiful, as if everyone is in the same situation.”
Du Bo pondered for a moment." How about this? Since Xiaopeng came to talk about the electric car first, then let's queue up first."”
Kelly Jiang was very unhappy when she heard that.
"Of course, we'll try to arrange for any orders from Tesla to meet the purchasing requirements of both parties," said Dubbo.”
It had to be said that Du Bo's diplomatic language was very smooth.
Du Bo also felt that he was being fair.
Regardless of whether they had signed a formal contract, they had already negotiated. It was equivalent to buying milk tea early and being in front of the queue. They should not be cut in line.
Tesla was indeed a huge customer. Any manufacturer would drool at this opportunity.
Becoming a supplier of Tesla was quite difficult, no less than becoming a supplier of coarse grain.
However, Du Bo felt that he still had to have a bottom line.
Especially in this kind of supply chain business, reputation in the industry was more important.
When Zhu Wenyu heard this, he immediately smiled and seemed to be relieved."President Du, this is for the best. I have no objections.”
Kelly Jiang: " Of course you have no objections, Boss Du. I disagree!”
Kelly Jiang stopped Du Bo from speaking.""Boss Du, I've said everything I need to say. Now, let me say something more realistic.”
"Please speak." Du Bo was startled.
"We'll raise the price!"
Du Bo and Zhu Wenyu were stunned.
"Increase the price?"
Kelly Jiang: " No matter how much Xiaopeng pays for the electric car, we will raise the price by 20%!”
