Flextronics is a maker of electronic ports, like what people use to charge their phones or laptops, and they make the red box machines that give out the movies. While I was their we talked about the price they were selling their ports. When I was siting in their I learned that how compannys try to get as much money as possible where they are negotiating to the fourth of pennies. I had also learned that the engineers over here design then they show people in China how to make it. Their is a problem with that system if their is a minor problem that they don't notice than they have to redo it and loose everything they had done for the time until they have noticed the problem. After being shown around Flextronics we went to AEG. AEG make solar panel system that store the energy. I learned their how they had made it and how it all works. They also told me how the pressure from laws has really slowed down their work that they could do. After that I went in saw another company that they were in talkings with about making a deal. This had Chinnese and American working together. These companies were very much different and they showed me how two different types of world can come together and make a plan. Their was a problem though because their goal was to get a low ball price that they could have had. What I learned from this is that everyone has their number it just takes lots of work to get their
