Chapter 187: Mineral Water
After a heated discussion, the "One More Bottle" event finally passed the approval of all shareholders.
But Luo Li can see that almost half of the shareholders are reluctant to do so. However, he did not intend to give further explanations, because none of them could match the more convincing facts that had been proven.
......
"Next, let's move on to the second bill.
At the beginning of the meeting, I said that our sales share is excluding the pure water business.
I believe that all shareholders know that the pure water in the current market can form an effective competition with our Tengfei Ice Spring, and there are only three companies: Robust, Uni-President and Master Kong. But statistically, our market share is less than 4%, while the other three combined have as much as 50%.
After some research, we found out that the reason for this situation is that customers feel that the focus of the Ascendas brand is on tea drinks, so making purified water is just a side business.
Therefore, customers will choose other brands that specialize in making pure water with money, and rarely choose Tengfei Ice Spring.
Secondly, at present, the water source of Tengfei Ice Spring comes from the reservoirs around Pengcheng, so the water quality is not very ideal, and many customers choose other brands of pure water because of the water source problem.
.......
Therefore, after communicating with the chairman, I proposed to separate the pure water business from the Tengfei brand and change its name to Nongjia Spring!
In addition, in order to start the popularity of the new brand and improve the quality of mountain spring water sources, with the help of the research laboratory, we found two natural water source bases in Luofu Mountain and Qiandao Lake.
At present, with the efforts of Vice President Feng Yu, we have obtained the relevant qualifications for water source development in the local area, and in October, we have invested 5 million yuan to build two production lines in the local area, and it is expected that the new plant will be able to put into production in about three months.
So, I would like to tell you that from today, our company will no longer produce pure water, only natural water.
The slogan of Farmhouse Spring is 'We are just the porters of nature!'
......
After the shareholders' meeting, Luo Li and Xu Fei rushed to the newly built workers' club in the factory.
The main body of the workers' club is a hall with only one floor, which can be used for workers to watch movies and host various activities such as large-scale company meetings.
Today, the first anniversary celebration banquet of Tengfei Company was held here!
Sales stars from all over the country, backbones of various factories, and worker representatives gathered together to dine together in the self-written and self-directed song and dance performance, and the atmosphere was very warm.
Especially when Luo Li and Xu Fei and most of the middle and high-level shareholders arrived, the atmosphere of the celebration banquet immediately reached a climax!
After the award ceremony, Luo Li and Xu Fei toasted together to celebrate the remarkable achievements of Tengfei in the first year.
After three rounds of drinking, even Luo Li was a little drunk, a middle-aged man and a young man came to him.
"Hello, chairman! I salute you for this glass of wine. Thank you for your input and support.
If it weren't for you, I'm afraid we'd be ....... this year's league."
Luo Li looked back at the middle-aged man who raised his glass to toast to himself, and suddenly stood up with wide eyes and said with a smile: "Coach Zhou!"
The middle-aged man smiled and nodded, looking very happy that Luo Li recognized him. He introduced Luo Li to the young man beside him. "This is the captain of our team......"
"Needless to say, this is Captain Peng. His skills are among the best in China, what fan doesn't know Captain Peng?" Luo Li finished speaking, and everyone at the table laughed "haha".
In this year, in addition to the TV station advertisement, the major event that helped Tengfei Company improve its popularity was the Yangcheng Tengfei team, which won the second place in the first A League.
And today, as a celebration banquet of Tengfei Company, Tengfei football team will naturally participate. And just now, Luo Li, as the guest of honor, issued bonuses to all the members of the Tengfei team who won the tenacious struggle award.
Each person gets a bonus of 5,000 yuan, which is more than a year's salary for ordinary workers.
For the footballers who were still paid workers a year ago, this was really enough to make them happy for a while.
You know, now is not the era when more than 20 years later, football players often earn millions of dollars in annual salaries and hundreds of thousands of bonuses for playing a game.
"Come, I toast you with this glass of wine. You have fought bravely in the league, won a good ranking, and won glory for the people of your hometown, so good!" After Luo Li finished speaking, he touched the wine glass in his hand with Coach Zhou and Captain Peng, and drank it all with his neck up, which immediately attracted a cheer from the same table!
Coach Zhou and Captain Peng also looked excited, thanked everyone and prepared to leave. But as soon as they turned around, they were stopped by Luo Li.
"The two of you stayed. Last year, our team won second, will we go to the AFC Champions League after a while?"
Luo Li was referring to the Champions League played by the top three clubs in the Asian national leagues.
Like the well-known Champions League, this game is a feast for kings and an important event to raise the club's popularity.
In his previous life, Luo Li had seen Guangzhou Evergrande win the AFC Champions League twice on TV, and represented Asia in the Club World Cup, winning countless honors for the country.
So at this moment, he naturally remembered this incident.
"AFC Champions League?" After Luo Li asked, Coach Zhou was full of doubts, as if he had never heard of such a game.
But Peng Weiguo, who was on the side, frowned and suddenly interjected: "You're talking about the Asian Club Cup, right?"
"Club Cup?
Is it called the Asian Club Cup now? It is the game that the top players of the various national leagues play together, and it is now called the Asian Club Cup. Luo Li understood in his own questions and answers.
Peng Weiguo immediately explained: "Yes, the Liaoning team won the championship once in 90.
However, this tournament is not for the top teams in every national league. Instead, only the first place in the league can be sent to participate. Next year's Asian Club Cup is represented by league champions Dalian Wanda on behalf of the country.
But I heard they seemed to abstain. Peng Weiguo's words were full of regret.
"Oh. Luo Li suddenly realized that from Peng Weiguo's explanation, he understood the difference between the rules of the Asian Club Cup and the AFC Champions League in the future, and also understood that the Tengfei team would not be able to participate in interstate competitions.
But he still didn't give up, and asked Peng Weiguo: "Captain Peng, then we don't have a foreign war mission this year?"
Peng Weiguo looked at Coach Zhou, but saw Coach Zhou and said with a wry smile: "That's not nothing, it's just that we don't usually participate." ”
"What do you mean?" Luo Li asked with some confusion.
"We have qualified for the Asian Cup Winners' Cup. The tournament brought together the second place from the national leagues.
But in fact, because the influence of the competition is very small, and the prize money is only 50,000 meters, except for a few countries around the host country that will participate, most of the other countries will not rush to participate in such a chicken rib competition. ”
"Oh, I'm afraid of spending money, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to fall behind. There is also a risk of injury.
However, this year, Wanda will not participate in the Asian Club Cup, and if we do not participate in the Cup Winners' Cup, then my country's football project will be useless. Luo Li lowered his head and pondered.
