Evening.

Guo Yongkun was in a hotel box in the center of Bangkok as promised, and ran into Xu Shubiao.

"Mr. Guo, the food in this shop is still good, you might as well taste it. ”

After a few pleasantries, Xu Shubiao introduced the topic to local food, without the slightest intention of talking about business.

Perhaps, I don't want to talk about it.

Guo Yongkun is not in a hurry, and the guest is as he pleases.

Thai cuisine is characterized by its use of the abundant spices of Southeast Asia and the combination of all-encompassing ingredients, resulting in a sour and spicy taste.

For Chinese, those who like it will like it, and those who don't like it are usually unaccustomed to it.

Xia Ying is quite adaptable, Li Youyou can't, as for Guo Yongkun, he has to pick vegetables.

Everyone in the world knows that Chinese can eat and dare to eat, but if you compare it with the Thais, it is simply a small thing. For example, what Thai insect feast, even those who have never eaten it, should have heard of it.

That thing, Guo Yongkun is absolutely in his mouth.

There are also dishes with fruits, a single point is fine, and the compound taste is basically not accounted for.

As for the wine, Thailand does not have a particularly deep wine culture, and the wine at the real business banquet is basically foreign, such as Jack Daniel's, Ballantine's, Chivas Regal, Nizun Gregar, etc.

It is worth mentioning that alcohol is sold in Thailand in different time periods.

From 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. and from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m., supermarkets and shops are not allowed to serve alcohol. And on the birthday of the king and queen, all entertainment establishments are also forbidden to sell alcohol.

Regarding this point, Guo Yongkun really didn't understand, and could only say that the culture was different.

Isn't the birthday of the king and queen supposed to be celebrated?

After drinking the wine and eating the dishes, Guo Yongkun smiled and looked at Xu Shubiao, it's time to talk about something serious, right?

Xu Shubiao sighed secretly, knowing that he still couldn't shirk it, and said in an apologetic tone, "Mr. Guo, I'm sorry, I may listen to Mattersz's suggestion and let the Chinese market go for the time being."

"Actually, I didn't plan to enter the Chinese market so early, and sometimes it's not a good thing to rush it. However, I can assure Mr. Guo that if Red Bull enters the Chinese market in the future, you will definitely be a key partner for us. ”

is worthy of the old rivers and lakes, and his words are really leaky.

If Guo Yongkun hadn't made some preparations in advance, this dinner might have ended here.

After all, people have rejected it very simply.

"Mr. Xu, you really trust Mr. Matschz. ”

As soon as Guo Yongkun's words came out, Xu Shubiao couldn't help but be stunned. The heart says, I don't trust him, do you trust you?

"That's nature. We are business partners, and mutual trust is the premise. ”

"It seems that Mr. Xu and Mr. Matterschötz have not met in the afternoon. Guo Yongkun laughed.

Xu Shubiao frowned, not understanding what he wanted to represent at all.

"Natsu Sakura. ”

Fortunately, Guo Yongkun didn't let him be confused, and tilted his head slightly. Xia Ying understood, took out a document from her briefcase, got up and handed it to Xu Shubiao with both hands.

Xu Shubiao was puzzled, but still raised his hand to take it.

It's just that after he took up his reading glasses and looked at them for a while, the next second, his expression became extremely serious.

At the same time, I also paid more attention and read all this information in English from beginning to end without missing a word. When you see that familiar signature on the last page—

A wave of anger rose from his chest.

Matt Stiz actually sold all of his 49% stake in Red Bull International!

And he didn't know anything about it!

"When?" he looked up at Guo Yongkun, and his attitude was not as friendly as before.

"This afternoon. ”

"Smack!" Xu Shubiao slammed the information on the table, and his chest rose and fell violently in anger.

This is a blatant betrayal!

In vain, he trusts the other party so much, is this selling equity?

It's him who sells!

"Xu Lao is angry, I know that you are definitely not in a good mood right now, but in business, it is difficult for Mr. Matestz to refuse this deal. ”

"Yes, 50 million US dollars, Mr. Guo is so courageous!" Xu Shubiao said angrily.

"It's not spirit. Guo Yongkun shook his head, "It's because I'm more optimistic about the development prospects of Red Bull than Mr. Mattschitz and more confident."

"He took $50 million and sold a 49% stake in Red Bull International, what does that mean?

It means that he has no idea whether Red Bull International can grow into a company with assets of more than 100 million dollars in the future. The Red Bull Global Strategic Plan he described to you is also bottomless.

"Since he has retreated, why doesn't Xu Lao accept the facts and cooperate with me, someone who has more confidence and ambition in Red Bull?

"In addition, I am far better than him. It took Mr. Matschz six years to make Red Bull the number one beverage brand in a small country like Austria. But I'm different, it took me the same six years to make Jianlibao the No. 1 in China, and I have successfully entered the U.S. market last year.

"I'm a better partner to work with than he is, and ......"

When Guo Yongkun said this, after deeply looking at Xu Shubiao with a complicated expression, he said word by word: "Elder Xu, after all, you and I have the same roots and ancestors, and in terms of blood relationship, we are all Chinese. ”

After hearing this, Xu Shubiao's heart was shocked, and the anger between his eyebrows gradually faded.

"One of the biggest differences between Chinese people in business and people in Western countries is that we value feelings. I can promise you that I now hold a 49% stake in Red Bull International, and no matter what happens in the future, if I am interested in making a move, I will definitely communicate with you in advance.

"Of course, I'm just giving you an example, and the probability of this kind of thing happening is extremely low. And about that, we can write into the shareholders' charter. ”

Xu Shubiao looked at his sincere gaze, and knew in his heart that the reason why he made this guarantee was to let himself understand: You will not experience a sudden betrayal again.

In other words, I will never betray you. Even if we can't cooperate in the future, I will communicate clearly with you, and then get together and disperse.

In this regard, to say that there is no ups and downs in my heart is absolutely false.

"You should know that Matt Stiz is the CEO of Red Bull International, and now that you kick him out, what are your plans for the future development of this company?"

Since Xu Shubiao asked like this, then Guo Yongkun also knew that the anger in the other party's heart had almost disappeared.

At least the anger on him.

Was he wrong about this?

From a business perspective, no. His deal with Matt Stiz followed the normal business acquisition process and was compliant and legal.

The only thing is that Xu Shubiao, the "victim", has caused a certain amount of emotional trauma.

"The headquarters is located in China. China has a population of one billion, and as for economic development, I know better than you, and in the next few years, it will inevitably usher in a new supermarket, which is definitely not comparable to a small country like Austria. Then China radiates the whole of Asia, and even the markets of Eastern Europe and the Middle East.

"At the same time, I already have roots in the United States, and it is not difficult to bring in Red Bull. I will invest in the construction of a factory in the United States, establish the second largest base camp of Bull in the world, and radiate the entire North American market.

"And Austrian Red Bull, which is not easy to manage, is now a small achievement, so it naturally needs to be retained. I will use Red Bull Austria as a springboard to radiate the entire Western European market......"

Xu Shubiao and his secretary were directly stunned, what is global strategy and global layout?

That's it!

In the past, although Matterschötz has been talking about global strategy, in fact, after so many years, he is still cowering in a small country in Austria.

Look at the people again.

Asia, Eastern Europe, Middle East, North America, Western Europe...... Once this layout is complete, Red Bull will cover the entire planet except for Africa.

And people are not just talking, his strength is there.

He is the No. 1 beverage merchant in China, the largest country in Asia, and he has a beverage company based in the United States.

"In addition, I will do these steps at the same time. ”

"At the same time?" Xu Shubiao gasped, how much does that cost!

Guo Yongkun looked at him and smiled, "I can advance money first." ”

Then you have to have money...... Xu Shubiao's expression was complicated, and he sighed in his heart, only to realize that his understanding of this young man was only too one-sided.

The amount of funds he has at his disposal should be far beyond his imagination.

At the same time, my heart was somewhat touched.

In this way, the development speed of Red Bull Beverage will be many times faster than when he cooperated with Matschz.

And the other party did not have the slightest intention of letting him make additional investment, and offered to advance funds, what does this mean?

One is not to put pressure on him, and the other is to have unparalleled confidence in Red Bull!

"Mr. Guo, do you have any other business besides Jianlibao?" asked Xu Shubiao.

Otherwise, where did so much money come from?

Guo Yongkun smiled and nodded, "There are several other beverage and liquor companies, plus an investment company, a real estate company, and a film and television entertainment company in Hong Kong City. In the United States, in addition to the Jianlibao branch, there is also an electronic technology company. ”

“......”

Okay, okay, there's nothing to say. Xu Shubiao was already dumbfounded.

"How old are you?"

"Exactly 30 years old. ”

“......”

"Mr. Xu, I will immediately arrange someone to take over from Austria, and I can start the construction of the Chinese headquarters when I go back, as for the United States, it will be simpler, and when the time comes, the goods will be shipped from Austria first, and the market can be promoted immediately.

"I expect that if all goes well, within three to five years, we will be able to complete the initial globalization layout. ”

Xu Shubiao was completely speechless, he thought that he might not be able to see this situation until he died, but now the other party told him that he would be able to achieve initial results in three or five years.

He always thought that Matschötz was the boss of Red Bull, and it was he who first proposed a globalization strategy to him and successfully brought Red Bull to the European market.

Only then did he realize that Matschz was just a passerby.

This young man in front of him is!

"So old, happy cooperation. Guo Yongkun raised his glass.

Xu Shubiao finally smiled and replied: "Happy cooperation." ”

He suddenly remembered that when he was a child, his father taught him a Chinese saying, which was called "If you lose your horse, you will not know if you are blessed".
