Chapter 772 The Psychological Battle

"So, Wyatt, what's your proposition?" Maya asked directly.

"My basic principle is that, by the end of this deal, both you and I should make money. A mutually beneficial arrangement," Wyatt stated, pulling Maya into his strategy.

"Wyatt, you're a big shot, a businessman who's negotiated countless deals. Let's cut the fluff. In business, the most crucial thing is the price. If we can agree on a mutually acceptable price, we can close the deal. So, name your price! Just make sure your offer is sincere and doesn't damage our relationship. Even if this deal doesn't work out, I'd like us to remain on good terms. If your price offends me, there might not be another opportunity." Maya, of course, was engaging in psychological warfare. Negotiation is all about mental games; whoever wins these battles gains the upper hand. "Maya, things aren't like they used to be. There was a time when construction projects were easy money. Now, profits are thin, and losses are frequent. For the Golden Light Hill project, if you help me secure it, I can offer you a maximum commission of 0.5%."

Wyatt laid out his offer.

Hearing this, Maya's face darkened in anger. 0.5%? Wyatt's offer felt like a slap in the face, a blatant insult.

"Wyatt, are you kidding me?" Maya asked coldly.

"Kidding? Not at all. I'm entirely serious," Wyatt assured her.

"Serious? Your bottom line is really 0.5%?" Maya pressed.

"Maya, you know it's tough to make money in construction nowadays. Often, I have to fund projects

upfront, and sometimes we don't

even get paid. Offering you 0.50 tet

shows my utmost sincerity. If you think it's too low, how about this: I'll give you another 0.5% once I receive the final payment," Wyatt suggested, looking for common ground.

Dealing with final payments had become notoriously difficult. Wyatt needed to safeguard some funds to ensure Maya's help in securing the final payment.

"Wyatt, do you realize who you're dealing with? This is TPO! Do you think the USA's largest

conglomerate, TPO, would fail to pay

you a single cent?" Mayal

questioned.

"Maya, I have full confidence in TPO's capabilities and financial strength. However, large

corporations like TPO have complex internal processes. Consequently, collecting payments can be more challenging. That's where I need your assistance," Wyatt explained.
