Chapter 426: God of Wealth
Midday.
After more than two hours of flight.
Wang Qiang, who was in a daze, heard his father's shout in his ear.
"Hadron, it's here. ”
"Got it, Dad. ”
"Hurry up, several brands will come later. ”
"Okay. ”
"Xiao Chen, take the bag, let's go down. ”
A group of five people got off the plane.
Wang Qiang yawned as he walked, and came to the pick-up gate.
Today it's September.
Rome's Fiumicino International Airport is very lively, with many blonde foreigners, or hot white women dressed in revealing Wang Baoguo's secret tongue, of course, from time to time you can also see some yellow-skinned Asians, listening to the tone, some are Chinese, some are Japanese and Korean. Especially those yellow people who speak Chinese seem very confident, and it is no wonder that those who can go abroad in China today have more or less strength and proud capital. Wang Qiang has a different mentality from them, after all, the tourism industry is so developed later, it is not too proud to go abroad to play, and now he is considered to be the upper class in China, and he really doesn't think there is anything to show off when he goes abroad.
In front of him was the person sent by Valentino to pick up the plane.
There was also someone sent by Fendi to pick up the airport.
People on both sides held signs with the words "Warmly welcome Guoxing Trade Wang Zong" in Chinese, and I don't know who they asked to write it, but it can be seen that the attitude is very good.
The headquarters of these two companies are in Rome, I have contacted them on the phone before, Valentino's people said to come to pick up the airport, Wang Qiang knows, he didn't expect Fendi to send people too, there are too many brands to find themselves in the morning, I remember that it seems to let them all come to Rome, and then focus on a meeting, those who are willing to cooperate will cooperate, and those who are not willing to cooperate are not reluctant.
The white girl who picked up Valentino shouted to this side, "Is it Mr. Wang Qiang?"
Wang Qiang didn't hesitate, "Yes, it's me." ”
"Your side, please. The white girl immediately asked her to come forward and carry her bag.
The seven or eight people who picked up Fendi looked anxious, and they hurriedly came up and rushed to serve Wang Qiang and others.
It is worth mentioning that Fendi will be acquired by Louis Vuitton Group in the future, and its strength is relatively weak today, and Valentino cannot be compared, Wang Qiang has only vaguely heard of it, no wonder Fendi wants to rush to pick up the opportunity with Valentino, in the final analysis, it still wants to take a "shortcut" and open up a luxury market that has not yet been fully developed.
Silvia Venturini Fendi sighed: "The strength of the company is still not strong, otherwise I would not have come to greet Mr. Wang Qiang in person." ”
Another woman in her forties said helplessly: "No way, we can't compare with a big company like Louis Vuitton, and now we have to ask for Guoxing Trade, China's luxury market has not been developed, as the daughter of the chairman, you should understand that if we can reach cooperation with Guoxing Trade, the next step is equivalent to opening up a sales channel with a lot of money." ”
The young man in his thirties next to him smiled bitterly and said: "You must know that even Bernard Arnault has announced a stake in Guoxing Global Purchase, and it is normal for us to have a lower posture." ”
Silvia Venturini Fendi smacked her lips, "Yes." ”
"I just don't know what kind of requirements Guoxing Trade will make. The woman said.
"We'll see later. Another man in his fifties interjected.
After a few people finished speaking, they enthusiastically stepped forward to greet Wang Qiang.
Wang Qiang couldn't understand Italian, but to his surprise, Chen Xuemin actually understood a little bit, and translated a few sentences, he knew that Fendi's current situation was not very good, and he couldn't help but nodded, no wonder this top luxury brand would be acquired by Louis Vuitton later.
It's a pity I don't have any money.
Otherwise, you will definitely learn from Louis Vuitton to acquire a few more brands.
Now that he has done the luxury industry, Wang Qiang naturally knows that it is not too reliable to cooperate with brand owners, who knows if Louis Vuitton will abandon themselves in the future, for example, the later e-commerce to find brand cooperation, the most famous Alibaba Tmall, there are many big brands settled in, but after those big brands settled in, it didn't take long to quit, in the end, the decision-making power is still in the hands of the brand, not to mention Gucci later, Hermes and so on are still selling on the Internet, so if you want to do this business for a long time, you must have a few of your own brands.
Unexpectedly learned from the conversation of several people in Fendi that Fendi's situation is not very good, Wang Qiang paid attention, now he has no money, it does not mean that there will be no money in the future, anyway, there are still several years before Louis Vuitton acquires Fendi, it should be too late.
……
Valentino headquarters.
Wang Qiang and his entourage were greeted in, and the person who picked up Fendi also followed, and on the way he had already asked, Fendi's current president, Petro Beccari, was already waiting at Valentino.
It seems that the two families have a good relationship.
"Where's Mr. Matteo Mazzato?"
"Waiting for you in the VIP reception room. ”
"There's a lot of him. ”
"Fortunately, he said that he has been looking forward to you for a long time, and he finally has time to see you today, by the way, Fendi's president Petro Beccari is known to you, as well as Mr. Giorgio Armani, chairman of Armani, and Mr. Gianni Versace, chairman of Versace, are also waiting. ”
Wang Qiang didn't expect to be in such a hurry to contact his own brands, and the chairmen of the two brands chased after him from Milan, "Okay, let's go over immediately." ”
They quickened their pace and headed for the elevator.
……
6th Floor, Superior Executive Floor.
It is a large VIP reception room, which is very ornate and refreshingly beige, surrounded by more than two dozen high-level executives from four top luxury merchants.
Matteo Mazato, a brown-haired man in his fifties and dressed in formal clothes, sat in the main seat, hung up the phone with a smile, and said lightly: "The people of Guoxing Trade have arrived." ”
A little old man sighed with emotion: "It's still Valentino who has a big face, so he directly asked Mr. Wang to come over." ”
Another middle-aged man who thanked him said, "It's coming, I've been looking forward to it for a long time." ”
A man in his forties said: "Yes, I haven't paid attention to China's luxury market before, but it has been started by Guoxing Trade, and we can't do it without asking him now." ”
The few people who spoke were:
Mr. Giorgio Armani – Founder of Armani.
Mr. Gianni Versace - the founder of Versace, despite his beard, is actually a very capable person, but perhaps he is so capable that he owes a huge debt and was shot in Miami in 1997.
The last man in his forties was Petrobeccari, Fendi's president.
In addition to Valentino President Matteo Mazzato, all four brand leaders were present.
Matteo Mazato asked, "Monsieur Versace, your company has not been doing well lately?"
Versace sneered, "No, I don't know who you listened to, Mr. Mazzato?"
Matteo Mazato said, "Actually, if you are really short of money to buy shares, we Valentino Group are willing to invest in shares to help you alleviate some financial crisis." ”
"Nothing. Gianni Versace is willing to admit it.
Other high-level officials are also whispering.
"The Versace Group is not doing well. ”
"The expansion rate is too fast, and the capital chain can't keep up. ”
"Eh, don't talk about it, everyone is at the top. ”
The Armani Group and the Valentino Group are in good financial condition, and Fendi has no financial burden, although the company is relatively small, but the Versace Group really has something wrong, otherwise it would not have been two years before Gianni Versace was shot dead.
Gianni Versace changed the subject and said: "I don't know what kind of conditions the Guoxing Trade Association will have with us. ”
Giorgio Armani said: "As long as the demands are not excessive, I am ready to agree, after all, China's luxury market is equivalent to being monopolized by Guoxing trade." ”
Petra Beccari envied: "Why didn't we notice the potential of China's luxury market at the beginning, and Guoxing Trade took the lead?"
Giorgio Armani took a sip of coffee, glanced at him, and said lightly, "Even if you know, you can do as successfully as Guoxing Trade?"
Matteo Mazato smiled and leaned back on the sofa, "Indeed, Guoxing Trading has not been established for a long time, but their strange tricks are frequent, and they monopolized the Chinese luxury industry in an instant, although they do not have their own brand, and they also relied on a few second- and third-tier brands in the United States before, but people have the ability, relying on a music program and then making a Magnolia luxury general, which is equivalent to ruining our back road, because even if we want to enter the Chinese luxury market now, if Guoxing Trade this' The official 'does not recognize, the Chinese still will not treat us as a real luxury. ”
Oh, yes!
Guoxing Trade's trick is amazing!
Directly from the root, it eliminates the possibility of other luxury goods merchants seizing the market independently.
Even if you want to seize it, it will take more effort than trade cooperation with Guoxing.
Gianni Versace said a little anxiously: "Why haven't you come up yet?"
Matteo Mazato was more indifferent, "It should be soon, don't worry." ”
Giorgio Armani and Petrobeccari didn't speak, but they were actually very anxious.
The executives of the other four brands present frequently looked out of the door, wanting to see if the God of Wealth was here.
It is not false to say that it is the God of Wealth, after all, Guoxing Trade occupies the entire luxury market in China.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
Knock knock, a female Valentino staff member said outside: "Mr. President, someone has arrived." ”
"Come in. Matteo Mazato stood up and prepared to greet him.
The door opened, and the female staff member reached inside, "Please." ”
The next moment, Wang Qiang, Wang Baoguo and others stepped into the reception room, "Hello everyone. ”
The moment I saw Wang Qiang, except for Matteo Mazato, there was one person here, and they were all a little confused, the actual head of Guoxing Trade was so young? It looks like he is less than twenty years old, right?
But they know that this is Wang Qiang!
"Mr. Wang!"
"You're finally here!"
"Welcome, welcome, warm welcome. ”
They didn't care how old or young Wang Qiang was, they only knew that this was their future master!
Wang Qiang's appearance, the atmosphere in the reception room suddenly became hot.
There were a few people present who couldn't believe their affectionate attitudes.
God of Wealth!
We've been waiting for you for a long time!
