In this case, "said" in the direct speech is changed to "said" in the indirect speech because the reporting verb remains the same. However, the tense of the reported speech (the part within the quotation marks) remains in the present tense because it's a general truth. So, "make" remains unchanged, and it's not shifted to "made."
