She had previously helped Wayne sort out the information for this project.
Wayne was very interested in it. There was no doubt about the project’s profitability; it was just a matter of how much profit.
“Let’s get straight to the point,” Rosalynn said casually, “I have a rough idea of your financial reports for the past six months. Simply put, you guys are losing money.”
“Secretary Tesdal, this has nothing to do with our company’s overall strength. It was because another department took on a crappy project last year, which caused us to lose a large amount of money at the beginning of this year. That’s what affected our financial reports!” Mr. Duran quickly explained.
The others chimed in.
“Yeah, Secretary Tesdal, you can see that our other projects are all doing very well!”
“Exactly! Otherwise, President Silverman wouldn’t even consider partnering with us!”
Everyone was babbling and trying to persuade her
Wayne didn’t say a word.
“He just looked at Rosalynn, waiting for her to speak.
“Things change quickly in the industry. Many big companies have gone under in the past couple of years, let alone a company your size. Bane Corporation has always been cautious, and this is a multi- billion dollar contract, so we can’t just look at the current data. It’s a true that you lost money, whether it’s due to one project or several. It’s all mismanagement, right?”
Mr. Duran was speechless and didn’t know how to respond.
“President Silverman’s aunt has some personal ties with your company’s chairman. Honestly, if it weren’t for that connection, I would advise President Silverman to choose a more reliable company to work with,” Rosalynn continued.
Hearing this, Mr. Duran and the others became anxious.
“No, no, come on, we’ve already come this far in our discussions!”
“Yeah, Secretary Tesdal, other companies might seem reliable, but who knows what their real situation is behind the scenes? At least with us, you know everything inside and out!”
Rosalynn didn’t respond but signaled her assistant instead.
The assistant immediately turned on the projector
“I have here a draft contract based on our business assessment of your company. In addition to the terms that bind both parties, the most important thing is the cooperation budget. Please take a look, and if there are no issues, we can continue our discussion.”
As Mr. Duran and the others finished reading, they all looked shocked.
This woman was ruthless!
It’s just one quarter of bad financial reports, and she slashed a third of the budget?!
Who could stand that?
Would Wayne even be this harsh?
*Secretary Tesdal, this… this budget is way too low!” Mr. Duran said in a deep voice, “We’re cooperating, after all. You can’t leave us with no profit, right?” Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Of course not. Bane Corporation isn’t a bandit. This budget does leave you some profit margin, just not as much as you might’ve hoped.”
Rosalynn’s grandmother once said that the opening price is made to be bargained.
Both sides were willing to cooperate, and now it was all about the budget.
Mr. Duran’s side argued fiercely
Rosalynn remained unmoved.
The other party kept making phone calls to their executives who were overseas and couldn’t return.
They kept proposing new prices only to be shot down by Rosalynn repeatedly.
After countless rounds of negotiation, Mr. Duran, exhausted, finally gave in to Rosalynn’s ideal budget price.
“Deal.”
Mr. Duran’s face was red, and he had lost all composure.
He stared at Rosalynn, thinking that he had misheard her.
“To avoid further dispute and to maintain the harmony of our cooperation, Bane Corporation will compromise. Deal.” Rosalynn continued.
Mr. Duran was on the verge of passing out.
The process of signing the contract was painstakingly meticulous.
At last, the contract was signed before nightfall.
Everyone left.
Rosalynn let out a sigh of relief, her tense nerves finally relaxing.
Soon after, a large hand touched her back, gently caressing her.
“Secretary Tesdal, you’ve saved the company a lot of money”
