The news that the Mexican telecom company sent business personnel to grab customers soon spread to the national telecom company, and for this reason, Zhou Ming had no choice but to call the core personnel such as Limous Antonio to hold an emergency meeting. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"According to what we have now, there are probably thousands of salespeople sent out by this guy Alberto, and they are snatching every customer they can see in every square and busy street, and they have not only lowered their tariffs, but they have even promised every customer that if those customers are willing to give up the contract of the national telecommunications company to go to their side, they can compensate for the loss of the tariff. ”
Limus's introduction shocked everyone, and even Carlos and Valentine, who were so young and vigorous, scolded at the time: "Abbetto, this damn bitch is just too much!"
"From the time they put pressure on us through the presidential palace, I guessed that they were going to fight a price war, but I didn't expect them to use even the means of tariff compensation in order to pull customers to their side, which is really shameless!" Antonio also said, gritting his teeth with hatred.
Everyone knows that the purpose of the establishment of Mexican Telecom is to target the national telecom, and because it was established in a hurry and without any communication base, they forcibly leased the communication network of the national telecommunications through administrative means. And by leasing instead of construction, they have saved a lot of costs, so that they have sufficient conditions to fight a price war with the national telecom, for them, anyway, the customer's money can basically be regarded as falling from the sky, why can't it be reduced?
Therefore, Zhou Ming thought of the price war, but the tariff compensation exceeded their expectations.
After all, no matter what kind of business competition pays attention to a cost calculation, like this kind of practice of not hesitating to compensate customers in order to poach customers, it is a suicide game of killing 1,000 enemies and losing 800 self-damage, and it is easy to lose yourself before defeating the other party.
It is in this way that basically all companies will not do this, but the Mexican telecommunications company is an exception, they are funded by several major banks, and the operation of communication is built on the national telecommunications network, which can be said to be a completely capitalless business, and it is for this reason that they will dig customers at any cost.
All this seems to be logical, but in fact, it is based on the interests of the national telecommunications company, completely generous to others, and put on a face of 'we are for the sake of consumers', how can it not be shameless?
"Although the loss of these small customers is tiresome, it is still within the acceptable range, after all, no matter how many people they send to the street to dig customers, the efficiency is very low, not to mention how many people they can meet in a day, just say that their practice of distributing leaflets on the road, how many people can trust? Now the most important thing is that the loss of large customers will really hurt our roots. ”
"Just now, I received a call from the Logistics Department of the Ministry of the Interior, and they announced that they had terminated the contract with us and that all the department's communications would be transferred to Mexican Telecom. ”
These words made everyone gasp, and they only then felt the real seriousness of the situation.
As Limus said, the practice of selling in various squares may seem aggressive, but in reality it will have a limited impact on national telecommunications. No matter if anyone on the road suddenly encounters an unfamiliar company's event that requires you to give up your current phone number to set up one of theirs, and you can't see their business hall yet, why do you have to think twice?
Not only that, but there are only a thousand customers that can be caught by a thousand sales, and they can't persuade everyone who passes by them at the same time, so they will be less efficient.
But large customers are different, and the loss of one large customer is likely to be worth hundreds of individual customers.
Just like the Ministry of the Interior building this time, although this is not the main administrative building of the Ministry of the Interior, there are hundreds of offices, although the use of the group network, but the monthly communication fees are still very amazing, more importantly, in this era, ordinary people need telephones and can afford to make a telephone, there are still a few, the main force of communication costs is still on the side of the unit.
It was precisely for this reason that even Zhou Ming couldn't help frowning this time.
"Bastard, if it's the Ministry of the Interior, it must have been that guy who took the bribe, I know his uncle is the head of the logistics department of the Ministry of the Interior!" Antonio said angrily.
"Is it bribery? Can these stinking rubbish, their methods be more shameless and despicable? My lord is above, I really can't imagine that I live under the same blue sky with such people, their souls are simply filthy and disgusting!" said Valentine more intensely.
Carlos said to Zhou Ming: "Chairman, can't we take revenge on them? We must also attack, we can't let them do whatever they want, right?"
With Carlos' words, everyone looked at Zhou Ming, and they believed that Zhou Ming would definitely have a way.
Maybe it was like this in the past, but today Zhou Ming also showed a wry smile, he glanced at Janice, who took out a fax document.
"This is a document from the Ministry of Commerce that we have just received, and you will understand that we have no way to fight back. Zhou Ming said.
Limus and Antonio took the file with confusion, but when they looked at it, their faces went dark, and then Carlos and Valentine took it and looked at it, and their eyes widened.
"This is too inferior, too unreasonable!" They struggled for a long time, and finally could only say such a sentence.
It was a fax from the Ministry of Commerce, which roughly warned about unfair competition in the communications industry and required the national telecommunications company to standardize its operations, otherwise the Ministry of Commerce would initiate an investigation into the unfair competition enterprises, and in serious cases, the industry license of the enterprise might be revoked.
"Shameless! How can a person be so despicable? Is that really the Ministry of Commerce? How do I see it as a babysitter for a Mexican telecommunications company?"
Antonio's hands pounded on the table, looking extremely sad and aggrieved: "This time, it is obviously the Mexican Telecom company that is fighting a price war, poaching customers at all costs, and it must be them if there is unfair competition, why do we, as victims, receive warning documents?
"Looks like they've done it all!" Limus sighed, his tone desperate. In the past, although he understood that the power of the Maronite Church was very strong, he did not have a clear concept because he had always been the agent of wealth, but now he understood how terrible it was.
Janice's tone was also heavy: "I heard my father say that there are people in Congress who are pushing for a legislative investigation into the telecommunications industry, and to regulate the industry through legal means, and the first target of the investigation is our national telecommunications company. ”
Before her words fell, Carlos couldn't help but say: "What kind of bullshit legislative investigation? Do those bastards sitting in Congress know what the law is? If you want me to see that the real illegal guys are those miscellaneous things, everything was made over there, and now they want to launch an investigation against us, do they really have the face to say this?"
Valentin was even more angry: "They are clearly trying to help the Mexican telecommunications company, then we will not accept the documents of the Ministry of Commerce, and let them go to investigate or something, it is great that we will directly cut off the communication network across the country, and the Mexican government and those bastards will break the net!"
Valentine was so excited that he shook his fist and roared at the end, but Antonio told him: "It is very tragic to say that the fish is dead and the net is broken, but I am afraid that the fish will die, but the net will not break." ”
"Why is that?" asked Valentine.
"Quite simply, because there is an emergency communications law, the president has the right to take over the communication network of the whole country in an emergency, so as long as we dare to cut off the communication network or use it as a threat, then with their current style, they will definitely ask the president to immediately activate the emergency to take over our communication network, and finally they can logically encroach on our communication lines and hand them over to Mexican Telecom. ”
Limus's tone was full of helplessness and bitterness: "Maybe they are so aggressive that they are waiting for us to die and break the net." ”
"Damn bastards, if we do what they want, we will be dragged down by their prices step by step, and finally we will be squeezed out of the market and we will fail, and now we can't even resist? Are we now lions in a trap and never be able to get out? Is this still the world the Lord has created for us?" Valentine cried out loudly, in a very desperate tone.
He couldn't help but despair, now the other party was pressing step by step, and no matter what they did, they couldn't break the game, and they couldn't cry when they wanted to cry with that feeling of powerlessness.
"What about the zero-dollar purchase, can we figure out a way to do that?" asked Carlos suddenly.
"A drop in the bucket. "Limus directly gave the sex," and on the day of the unveiling ceremony, they had already announced that they would also carry out a zero-yuan purchase project, so there was no way to change it. ”
In fact, Carlos had already guessed the answer the moment he asked, but when he heard Limus's answer, he still couldn't help but lower his head and shed tears, his fists clenched and his teeth tightened, and there was a feeling of feeling uncomfortable but not knowing how to vent, that feeling was suffocating.
"On the one hand, we use price wars and compensation methods to drag down and defeat us in the competition for customers, and on the other hand, we use administrative power to restrain and provoke us, and in the end it is impossible for us to even want to break the jade, so it seems that we are indeed in a desperate situation where there is no way to fight back, so do you really think that we have no power to fight back, and can only let them slaughter?"
Zhou Ming's sudden question lifted everyone's spirits, and they all looked at Zhou Ming with their last hope, Antonio and Carlos They thought that Zhou Ming was the most capable of creating miracles, and Limous also thought that once upon a time he also had so many resources, but in the end, he was defeated by Zhou Ming? So this time the opponent is still an Alberto who is not as good as himself, how could Zhou Ming fail?
Zhou Ming smiled and told them: "It seems to be the case on the surface, but don't forget, we are the national telecommunications company that has mastered the standards, whether it is a communication network or a zero-yuan purchase, it is ours, they are just thieves and robbers who have stolen our things." ”
"So we're still on the initiative. Zhou Ming finally said, "No matter what the current situation is, please believe me, the reason why they are doing everything now is because they have reached a desperate situation, and there is no other way to deal with us, so they can only do so." ”
Zhou Ming's simple words immediately swept away the decline in the conference room just now.
