"Forgive me for not being clear up front, but it appears establishment of trust on both sides requires us to be a bit more transparent. I work for a corporation with very high standards for quality and safety."
"We are expanding our location in Mingmei which will require numerous negotiations with parties we are collaborating with, including some of the local blue-collar grounds crew
((implying Yakuza-controlled)) which may not be fully aligned with our purposes. This behooves us to establish a suitable
neutral location for such negotiations for the foreseeable future where both sides feel safe and secure. This of course could present a considerable revenue stream for your company, but also requires a certain level of trust and certainty from our side."
"Due to the sensitivity of these negotiations, my supervisors have requested that I conduct an investigation and submit a complete report of the options and I've found that hard paper is is the most secure. Your hotel is new and still establishing its reputation, but we think this can be an opportunity for both sides - we can given you a revenue stream, but you will also gain a major corporation as a reference...discreetly of course."
He skillfully flicks the pen to activate the inkwell and begins writing.
"Now, with your permission, I'd like to go through the options in more detail, starting with floorplans and security lists of your options for conference rooms as well as the penthouse, should we need to conduct meetings a few months from now. I understand that you cannot reveal all the details of
how, but you must understand that we cannot make decisions if we do not know precisely
what we are buying."
"Can we start with the floorplans of the different options of conference room as well a the penthouse option?"
((social limit is 9 so he keeps all of them))
