Chapter 1380 Successful Negotiation
“Mr. Chester, there are guests here to see you.”
They arrived at the fourth-floor reception, and the attendant went to inform the general manager’s office. about the visitors.
A mild-mannered male voice from inside said, “Please bring the guests in and prepare some tea.”
As they entered the room, just as Tony handed his business card to Vernon, Emmeline froze.
“Is it you!” she said.
Seated behind a large desk was a middle-aged man, and it was none other than Vernon Chester, the contractor of the department store.
Upon seeing Emmeline, he smiled. “Fancy seeing you here, young lady.”
Tony was surprised. “Do you two know each other?”
“More than just knowing,” Vernon replied as he took something from a drawer and placed it on the desk. “I have a feeling this is yours, dear.”
“My wallet?” Emmeline chuckled. “How did it end up with you?”
It turned out that Vernon was the middle-aged man who had withdrawn over a thousand dollars that day
and helped the antique vendor.
“That day, when I left the antique stall, my wallet was stolen by a pickpocket,” Vernon explained. “Later, the police caught the thief and found five or six wallets on him, and one of them had your photo inside, so I kept it.”
Emmeline smiled and said, “What a coincidence! Thank you!”
“I had a feeling I would run into you again,” Vernon said happily.
Emmeline blushed slightly. “How did you know we would meet again? We just had a brief encounter.”
“You were copying the contact number for the lease of the booth on a pillar by the entrance,” Vernon said. “I was standing nearby at the time, so I thought you would either come back or give me a call. I remembered your voice, soft and pure.”
Emmeline chuckled and marveled at his attention to detail.
The discussion on the proposal then proceeded smoothly, evolving from expected negotiations to a collaborative effort. Everyone shared their opinions on the proposal while actively expanding on ideas.
The passionate discussion continued for two hours. In the end, they decided that RetroWave Advertisements would take on the entire advertising decoration project, and certain details of the proposal. would be further refined by their team.
The advertising budget was subjected to auditing and verification, with some flexibility allowed in the final
decision.
After finalizing the proposal details, both parties signed the contract, specifying the project timeline and
payment terms.

“I initially intended to entrust the advertising decoration project of this building to the ‘NeonEdge Ad Agency’ in the south,” Vernon explained. “Their design level is higher than ours here, but the materials and labor costs are also much higher. Today, after meeting Emmeline, I believe choosing your company is the right decision, given her character.”
Tony quickly stood up to express his gratitude.
With this statement, everything was practically settled. Vernon added a final condition: payment would be split into three phases.
Upon signing the contract, an upfront payment of 30% would be due, allowing RetroWave Advertisements. to proceed confidently with the project.
Hearing this, Tony nearly knelt in gratitude, with tears pooling in his eyes.
