Rebirth of the Burning Era

Vol 2 Chapter 359: impolite businessman

Time goes back to two hours ago.

Liang Yifei and Xie Yifei are in a suite at the Chongqing Hotel.

Coincidentally, when they came to Chongqing, they ended up at the Chongqing Hotel.

"Do you really want to get involved in Tianfu Coke?" Xie Yifei was a little surprised.

At the earliest, Tony's investigation of Tianfu Cola was just a random act without a clear purpose: Liang Yifei came to Shuzhong as a staff officer to help, and he couldn't just run for nothing. He happened to encounter the strange situation of Tianfu Cola. The investigation can be regarded as an explanation for Liang Yifei.

As for whether he can get the benefits, that is Liang Yifei's own business.

Tianfu Cola and Pepsi Cola, between these two domestic and foreign giants, whether Liang Yifei, Xie Yifei and Tony, at first thought that this was a slap in the face, that is, there is no need to force it, and there is no way to force it.

Quite a bit of Buddhist spirit.

Unexpectedly, after Liang Yifei and Bahrain went to Tianfu headquarters, they suddenly became very firm when they came back, showing great interest in Tianfu.

Liang Yifei said: "I have investigated, Tianfu headquarters is not counted, there are 108 bottling plants under its subordinates. The equipment and employees of these bottling plants are all ready-made, and they are all the best equipment. Although the individual scale is not large, it can be They are all built in places with convenient transportation, and once they start, even if there are only a dozen or so, it will be enough to help me build a production and filling base in the middle of Shu.”

"Didn't you build a factory in Binhai?" Xie Yifei asked.

Liang Yifei nodded and returned to the factory after building a factory. However, the scale of beverage production in the future will definitely not be comparable to that of health care products. If the new factory in Binhai City is used to produce finished products, the output will be on par with Chinese Turtle Essence. Even worse: because Chinese soft-shelled turtle essence, to put it bluntly, is to fill it with sugar water with some traditional Chinese medicine. There is no technical content at all, and the future drinks will be different.

In other words, just relying on this factory will definitely not meet the market demand in the future.

Of course, this so-called market demand was predicted when Liang Yifei had a prophet and confidence in himself, not according to the prediction of most people including Xie Yifei, the former is ten times or even dozens of times larger than the latter. Hundred times the scale.

After all, Binhai City is an inland city with a high population density. No matter how talented Liang Yifei is, he is unlikely to build one large beverage factory one after another in Binhai.

Even if there is land, in contrast, the land obtained from Binhai City will be much more valuable than building a bottling plant in the future, whether it is for residential real estate, commercial real estate, or even simply for logistics storage and industrial areas.

On the other hand, there is a vast area in the middle of Shu. Whether it is the pharmaceutical factories acquired by Xie Yifei or the bottling factories, the value of the real estate development in the future is very limited in terms of location, and it is just right to use it for production.

After chatting with the old gatekeeper for a while, Liang Yifei was inspired. He can completely turn several factories in Binhai into 'stock liquid' production in the future, establish a dilution and bottling factory in Shuzhong, and the factory in Shuzhong can produce finished products. , which not only ensures the safety of the formula, but also greatly saves the cost.

For many years to come, Shuzhong's policies, human resources, and environment will all be suitable for processing and production.

Xie Yifei will develop in Shuzhong in the future, and he and he can help each other.

There is also an invisible wealth: the bottling plants in Tianfu are scattered in more than a dozen counties in the middle of Shu. , being able to talk to the local government and win a factory is equivalent to having a channel to communicate with the local government.

If he wins a batch, it means that Liang Yifei can deal with a large area of ​​local governments in Shu, and there are future business opportunities in it.

"The problem is Pepsi and Tianfu, how could they possibly sell the bottling plant to you?" Xie Yifei spread his hands and said; "According to what you said, Xintianfu is now calculated by Pepsi, Pepsi is not short of money at all, these assets Even if it is mortgaged to the bank, it is a steady source of money. Besides, if it is not used now, it does not mean that it will not be used in the future. Whether it is Pepsi Cola or Tianfu Cola, if it is to be bigger in the future , all need a bottling plant.”

After a pause, he said: "Even if you talk, they will sell you a few factories, but according to your idea, it is to build a bottling factory for industrial films, one or two factories will definitely be useless, at least twenty or thirty factories. to scale.”

"If possible, I would like to take down more than 100 factories." Liang Yifei laughed.

"Impossible!" Xie Yifei directly denied Liang Yifei's idea without even saying an uncertain 'bar'.

There are more than 100 factories, although each factory is not large, the smallest only has a few filling machines of hundreds of thousands, but it can't hold a large number.

"That's what I said, of course it's impossible to take all of them." Liang Yifei smiled.

"If you can take down three or five, I'll consider you capable." Xie Yifei shook his head and smiled and said, "Let's focus on the agency. There aren't many Pepsi in the mainland, so it's an opportunity."

"Looking for my agent, they won't develop it by themselves." Liang Yifei looked at his watch and said, "As we said before, everyone came here, and they all stayed in a hotel. , I'll go talk to that Mr. Thomas."

"That's it, I'll wait for your success!" Xie Yifei said teasingly.

...

...

In Thomas' top-floor long suite.

Liang Yifei sat on the sofa unhurriedly, and instead of answering Thomas' question, he asked the same question back.

"Mr. Thomas, I really want to know, what is the purpose of your Pepsi's coming to China?"

Thomas' two pale golden eyebrows couldn't help frowning, and he stared at this visitor who had never met before and said, "What are you doing?"

"Don't be nervous, I'm not a thug, and even if I were, I couldn't do anything to you in the Chongqing Hotel. This place has witnessed the friendship between China and the United States since the beginning of this century. I respect this friendship very much. So I feel more and more strange."

Liang Yifei lit a cigarette and said, "Why did Pepsi come to China to do such a thing?"

"A rude person." Thomas saw Liang Yifei smoking indoors without asking him for advice. With obvious disgust on his face, he waved his hand impatiently and said, "I ask you to leave now."

Of course Liang Yifei would not leave, and said to himself: "There is one thing I really don't like about you foreigners, you are obviously doing rude things, using unfair competition methods and the worst method to chase profits, but you can In personal life, full of courtesy and gentlemanly demeanor."

"I don't understand what you're talking about!" Thomas couldn't stand the rudeness of the person in front of him. He was even a little scared. After all, he was just a businessman.

So he reached out his hand subconsciously, picked up the phone by the bedside, and wanted to call the front desk to call the security guard.

"Mr. Thomas, I advise you not to make this call, otherwise I will go to the Chongqing Municipal Government to discuss the next question, and I am a businessman who is not too big or too small, maybe I have no way to do it. Competing with international brands to achieve success, but I must have the ability to destroy the good things of some people, in Chinese words, success is not enough, failure is more than enough." Liang Yifei said.

"What the **** are you talking about!" Thomas is also not used to the Chinese people's detours and subtexts.

He can speak proficient Chinese, but there are many subtexts and deep meanings in Chinese, but he has been confused for many years.

What he can understand now is limited to the level of 'if you have eaten or not, it does not mean that you are invited to dinner, it is just a polite word'.

"Then I'll just say it." Liang Yifei said, "In order to form a joint venture with Tianfu Cola, PepsiCo spent 300 million in cash, paid 40% of the new company's equity, and provided no less than the previous Tianfu Cola employees every month. The stable income from the treatment has finally gained control of Tianfu, but in just one year, the market share of Tianfu Cola has fallen off a cliff. Mr. Thomas, why is this?"

"It doesn't seem necessary for me to explain anything to you. I'm only responsible to the shareholders." Thomas hesitated for a moment after speaking, but still explained, "Running a business is naturally risky, no matter what business you do, in the early stage There needs to be a transition period.”

"That is to say, Pepsi-Cola, which has achieved great success all over the world, came to the Chinese market. Such a virgin land with a surge in consumption and inclined policies will not operate and fail? Isn't it strange?" Liang Yifei smiled. asked nonchalantly.

"The Chinese market is the most unique market." Thomas said: "Your system and policies..."

Liang Yifei interrupted Thomas directly and said, "Our system and policies give foreign businessmen the greatest degree of preference and help~www.wuxiaspot.com~ As long as foreign businessmen invest with sincerity, there is no unprofitable business!"

"Mr. Liang, until now, I still don't know what you're going to say!" Thomas said.

"Okay, then I'll make it simpler. Any business behavior is purposeful. Investing in Tianfu Cola and taking control of it has no more than a few purposes: First, I like the brand effect of Tianfu Cola. ; Second, it has good assets; third, through this shell, Pepsi can enter the mainland.

So judging from the current situation, after Pepsi took over, it did not expand the brand effect of Tianfu Cola, nor did it make full use of its assets or mortgage. On the contrary, you reduced the production of Tianfu Cola to a minimum, and mass-produced Pepsi Cola. So it can only be the third purpose. When you buy Tianfu Cola, it is not because you fancy this cola, and you are going to invest in it to make it bigger and stronger, but to use Tianfu as a springboard for Pepsi to enter the mainland. "

"Is there any problem with this?" Thomas said calmly: "Pepsi-Cola is the actual controlling party, and of course the interests of Pepsi must be given priority."

"This is going back to the original topic." Liang Yifei said: "Why do you want to buy Tianfu Coke? I understand this question. I don't think any local government in the mainland will allow it."
