Genuine or fake cooperation

A salesperson who used to work with me but whom I had never met before called me to propose a partnership, and then I prepared a proposal and quote as he requested. After asking for the basic information, I said it could be done, as it was during working hours; I suggested discussing it again after work in the evening. Then he kept urging, saying it was urgent, meaning it had to be done for him that very night. When I got home from work in the evening, I did the calculations carefully and everything was fine. I just asked about how to cooperate The other party said that the money would be paid in full once the project was completed, and added that it was a friend’s project and they needed his help in finding a small team to work on it. Then I’ll ask how much money is planned to be allocated for this plan? At least give me some compensation for my efforts. Previously, he often called me to ask questions, and he never mentioned money at all. Then he still talked about cooperation! I said that cooperation is possible, but the payment must be handled separately; a portion of the money is paid for each submission, that is, for the list, the drawings, and the commissioning. Then he lost his voice. Because I have also prepared plans for others before? Didn’t think about it that much at the time? There was once a set of contracts that needed to be completed by me. The initial total amount agreed upon was 8,000 yuan, but later he said that the client had pressured him to lower the price so much that there was no profit left; he was told to charge 5,000 yuan for doing the work. It’s also paid in installments; the first payment was made fairly quickly – around 1200 yuan. I promptly sent over the required list, procurement drawings, etc., and then asked for the process diagrams and assembly drawings. I finished it early on, and then there was no sound anymore. Later, they said to give a call to their boss, that he would get in touch with me. As it turned out, their boss called me and asked for the drawings; I said that since I hadn’t been paid for the drawings, I certainly wouldn’t provide them. Their boss said that 8,000 yuan had already been given to him up front. So I understood it myself.
