Chapter 216: A Double-Edged Sword
The convoy drove down the highway intersection and entered the territory of Taoyuan County, Wan Qiang felt a lot in his heart, he didn't expect that he would return to this dilapidated small county town.
Wan Qiang himself is not a native of Taoyuan County, he fled here, and then Taoyuan County, a national-level poor county, has become his springboard and a place for Longxing.
Today is a bit cloudy, Liu Meijia has already led people to the highway intersection two hours in advance to wait.
"Mr. Liu, here!" Wang Chengwei said in a low voice.
Wang Chengwei is also impressed by Wan Qiang, the big boss, but he thinks that he is Liu Meijia's person, from beginning to end.
"Well, I saw it!" Liu Meijia wore coffee-colored sunglasses, standing in the wind, looking at the Beijing brand team driving over.
In the car, Wan Qiang's driver asked: "Boss, Liu Meijia will take someone to greet you in front, should we stop and say hello?"
"No, go straight back to the county seat. Wan Qiang closed his eyes and said calmly.
"Yes!"
After speaking, the driver accelerated and drove away in the direction of Taoyuan County, and did not stop at all to pay attention to the people waiting to greet him.
Liu Meijia's face was a little ugly, she waited here with someone for two hours, it was impossible for Wan Qiang not to know, this was a slap in the face in public!
"Mr. Liu?" Wang Chengwei's face is also not good-looking, he still looks at the owner when he beats the dog, he is Liu Meijia's subordinate, Wan Qiang doesn't give Liu Meijia face, doesn't he also slap their faces.
Liu Meijia's face was solemn, listening to Wang Chengwei's voice, she came back to her senses, her brows stretched a little more, and she said coldly: "That's fine, everyone is seeking money, so let's rely on our own abilities." ”
After speaking, he walked towards the car: "Go back to Xiantao Villa!"
Wan Qiang's dissatisfaction with Liu Meijia has many factors, first the dispute with Yutou Village, thinking that Liu Meijia is incompetent, and then later, Liu Meijia herself opened a small stove on Taoyuan jade, and the last time she used machinery to mine Taoyuan jade seeds, she was arrested by the law enforcement team, and fined more than 5 million inside and out.
The hustle and bustle in the world is all for profit, Wan Qiang and Liu Meijia are closely integrated because of money, and the breakdown will undoubtedly be because of money.
Wan Qiang thinks that he is the 'overlord' of Taoyuan County, and Liu Meijia is just a group of rabble.
"Cheng Wei!"
When she was about to arrive at the county seat, Liu Meijia, who was closing her eyes, suddenly opened her eyes and shouted to Wang Chengwei, who was sitting in the co-pilot.
Wang Chengwei turned around, the driver was also Liu Meijia's cronies, so there was no need to avoid anything.
"You contact a few traders who are proficient in the financial stock market, and open a few securities accounts, and I will use them!" Liu Meijia instructed.
Wang Chengwei didn't ask why, nodded and whispered, "Okay, I'll contact you in a while." ”
Liu Meijia said expressionlessly: "Wan Qiang's return this time is not only to hype Taoyuanyu, but also to brew the final retreat." ”
The last retreat?
This sentence made Wang Chengwei stunned, didn't Wanqiang Capital stay good?
"Find someone to investigate, in which country Wanqiang has invested recently, and whether he has found anyone to apply for fake passport documents. Liu Meijia said.
Wang Chengwei frowned and asked in a low voice: "Mr. Liu, do you mean that Wanqiang wants to run away?"
Liu Meijia said calmly: "This is the worst plan, if Qiangyuan Company is suspected of manipulating the stock price and is investigated, he will definitely run away at that time." After a pause, he said expressionlessly: "If Wan Qiang is allowed to run away, maybe we will have to carry the black pot at that time." ”
From Wan Qiang's announcement claiming that Qiangyuan Company acquired Taoyuan Jade Mine for 500 million US dollars and entered Taoyuan Jade Mining, Liu Meijia knew that Wan Qiang would not be able to bear it, and there must be someone above investigating Qiangyuan Company, and Qiangyuan Company's 'thunder' could not be eliminated.
Therefore, before there is no 'thunderstorm', Wanqiang should speculate on the stock price of 'Qiangyuan Group', pledge the shares in his hand, exchange for funds, and leave the country.
Of course, Liu Meijia's guess may not be accurate, but if everything is according to her guess, then none of them who are left in China will be able to run.
After Wan Qiang returned to Taoyuan County, he immediately summoned many old departments of Qiangyuan Company that remained in Taoyuan County, and chatted about something, outsiders don't know, anyway, everyone is very excited.
The 'Baiganquan' mineral water company is a local mineral water company in the city, and the bottled mineral water is only sold in the province, accounting for about 12 to 15 percent of the share, but the market share in the city is as high as 40 percent.
The main cheap mineral water, one dollar per bottle, thirty-six bottles in a box, and the wholesale price is only ten yuan.
The boss's surname is Sun, and his name is Sun Lecheng, a boss who is over forty years old and is relatively tough, and his name in the city is not small.
"What's going on in Taoyuan County this month? The market share has dropped by 46 percent, you guys are eating?"
Sun Lecheng called the manager in charge of Taoyuan County's business over, and he scolded him for scolding.
"Boss, there is a new mineral water on the market in Taoyuan County, and now it focuses on the local market in Taoyuan County, and it doesn't cost money to distribute goods, and it doesn't cost money to deliver goods, although the price is higher than ours, but the market response is good, so our market share has dropped so much. The business manager said helplessly.
'Baiganquan' mineral water in Taoyuan County, used to sell well, one is because of the low price, the other is that Taoyuan County's economy is not up, there are not many people who are willing to spend money to buy high-priced mineral water, and small shops are not willing to sell those high-priced water pressure goods to take up money.
But now it's different, the price of 'Longshan Spring' is not high or low, but the publicity in Taoyuan County is really big, the most important thing is that people don't need money to distribute goods, and they don't need those merchants to take money to press the goods, as a fast-moving consumer goods, they are all cash payment, only 'Longshan Spring' is not.
The second is that there have been some changes in the Taoyuan County market now, the locals used to have little money, but since digging Taoyuan jade can make money, tens of thousands of 'jade diggers' have gathered on both sides of the Jinsha River, relying on digging jade to make a lot of income have increased dramatically, to put it bluntly, more people are willing to spend two yuan to buy a bottle of water to drink!
In the first month, the sales volume of 'Baiganquan' mineral water fell by half, which is expected, because 'Longshan Spring' has only been advertised for a few days, and it has not been listed for a few days, if you wait until next month, the market share of 'Baiganquan' mineral water will decline more ruthlessly, and the performance will be more ugly.
Unless Sun Lecheng is also willing to let 'Baiganquan' distribute goods for free in Taoyuan County, and vigorously benefit retailers, the market share may rebound.
However, the positioning of 'Baiganquan' mineral water is cheap mineral water, relying on low price to attract customers, if the price can not become the main hard condition to attract customers, then the market share of 'Baiganquan' will continue to decline will become inevitable.
As a business manager, I can see these very clearly, but I can't tell Sun Lecheng honestly, because the boss will be angry, and it doesn't seem to be good for him.
Sun Lecheng frowned and said, "Longshan Spring, what is the source, why haven't you heard of it before?"
"A local mineral water bottling plant in Taoyuan County, I heard that it has just been put into production, it is very related to the local area of Taoyuan County, and it has become a government unit for the first time after the listing, and the designated water in Taoyuan jade market is much higher than ours. ”
Sun Lecheng's eyes flashed and said, "I don't care what spring he is, anyway, you will snatch the market back for me." ”
After losing his temper, his mood improved, and he asked with a gloomy face: "Do you have any countermeasures to the Taoyuan County market?"
"If we want to compete with 'Longshanquan', I'm afraid we have to distribute the goods for free and give profits to those retailers, so that they are willing to help us return the products. The business manager whispered.
"Free distribution?"
When Sun Lecheng heard these four words, he was like eating a stool, the last thing he wanted to hear was these four words, free distribution is beneficial, and the same is more harmful to a factory, especially after the development and growth, it is easy to cause the capital chain to break, so there are still companies that still implement the strategy of "free distribution", there are really few in the market.
If it weren't for the fact that 'Longshanquan' is a local enterprise in Taoyuan County, Shanxiu would not want to publicize it to the outside world before the road was repaired, and would not have implemented such a strategy. And in the future, the free distribution will only be carried out in Taoyuan County, and the county will still have to be cashed out.
It is not only the 'Baiganquan' mineral water spring company that feels the changes in the mineral water purified water market in Taoyuan County, but also the managers and sellers of other companies are also aware of the seriousness.
However, there are not many companies that are willing to start a war with 'Longshan Spring' and distribute goods for free after all, because they have opened this precedent, and they will not be able to recycle in the future.
'Free distribution' is a double-edged sword hanging over the head, which can kill the enemy, and can also kill yourself.
'Longshanquan' doesn't care, it's all because the little rich woman in Shanxiu is rich, and she doesn't care about this star at all.
With Tang Long's light, not to mention how much money he made on Taoyuan jade seeds, the Taoyuan Jade Mine that he bought for 10 million changed hands and sold it for 200 million US dollars.
For the 'Longshanquan' mineral water company, at the beginning, including Zhang Xiu'e, Tang Long, and even Shanxiu himself, they didn't pay much attention to it, but it was just a bottle of water, how much money could they make?
In fact, they don't understand the domestic FMCG market, such as 'mineral water', which is also one of the necessities in people's daily life, is simply profitable, but this market is not so easy to enter, the production of mineral water, the establishment of factories is not the most difficult, the difficulty is to let consumers recognize, recognize your brand, recognize your water quality.
Of course, the most important premise is the brand.
And now, in addition to having a certain reputation in Taoyuan County, 'Longshan Spring' is said to be nationwide, even if it is out of Taoyuan County, there are few people who know it.
