Chapter 182: How about getting drunk? (3/3 for the Sword Stepping Alliance Leader)
Under Wu Haiming's introduction, Lu Yu and Bian Liangji finally have some understanding of today's market. *With* Dream *Small* Say .lā
In the whole world, the status of Huaxia tea, especially black tea, is not very high.
Moreover, most of the black tea produced in Huaxia is made according to the flavors of Europe and the United States.
That is, the taste is thick and the soup is red, which is suitable for drinking.
The clear black tea is mainly circulated among some people with unique tastes.
Originally, tea customers from Oriental countries such as Huaxia and Dongying preferred to drink clearly.
However, under the guidance of the "popular style" led by Europe and the United States, most people have also given up this way of drinking.
As Lu Yu saw in Maoxiang Teahouse, although there are many cases of drinking black tea, clear tea is no longer the mainstream of this world market.
For most people in this world, drinking black tea is like drinking coffee without sugar and milk.
It sounds lofty, but not many people try to get used to it.
This situation is completely different from Lu Yu's original world.
As for Huaxia black tea, because its status is not high and the production method is biased towards mass production, it is often called a cheap product in the international market.
Even if it is exported to Europe and the United States, it is not accepted by high-end people.
It can only be sold in hypermarkets such as supermarkets, or simply made into large-scale bottled beverages.
And there is not a single tea brand that can really start in the international market!
The situation is similar to Kenya, where Lu Yu was originally located.
Kenya is the world's largest exporter of black tea, and even the world's Chinese market has a place for Kenyan black tea.
It's just that Chinese people rarely know Kenyan black tea, let alone Kenyan black tea brands.
In such an environment, even Wu Haiming's tea is of good quality.
But it can't be sold at a really high price.
Black tea of the same quality is different if it is produced in places such as Assam or Darjeeling, India.
The purchase price can definitely reach more than ten times the price of Wu Haiming!
According to Wu Haiming's words.
The two foreign orders that he signed were all for the purpose of laying the foundation for future mass production.
Once there is an export order for fine tea, then the domestic market will rise.
When it comes to mass production, you can use this to hype up your popularity, sell it at a better price, and maybe even go further to play your own brand.
After all, tea people also have to survive.
The main sources of income for the tea people in this world are nothing more than a few.
With their own professional knowledge, they grow and produce tea and do tea sales.
Attend various events or endorsements with your popularity and status, and even earn fees as an advisor to a large business.
As well as similar to other tea people such as Chen Juncheng, opening physical industries such as tea houses and so on.
As for the so-called pointers, talk about it with high-level figures.
It was just a way for the tea people to increase their popularity, and for high-ranking people to make friends with each other or to be vassals.
The world respects tea people because this world has unique traditions.
Just as General Liu Zhibing, the tea man, can make Maeda Ichiro and Frank get out of the way with a word, the real core of power is still in the military and political circles.
The competition between countries is still the national strength, not the number of tea people.
After Wu Haiming finished speaking, he suddenly smiled: "But since I talked to Lu Yu, I feel that there seems to be something wrong with my somewhat utilitarian ideas. ”
Lu Yu smiled slightly: "Oh?"
Wu Haiming said: "Lu Yu is right, including me, the tea we make is tea for foreigners. ”
"Westerners, with their wealth and development, lead the taste of our Orientals, but Orientals, especially our Chinese, can't always go with the flow!"
"I want to develop a tea that is truly suitable for our Chinese people!"
Bian Liangji was puzzled: "Wu Haiming, do you mean to give up your black tea?"
Wu Haiming shook his head: "Of course not! I make this black tea, but it is only used as a means to make money, or to make money from foreigners!"
Regarding Wu Haiming's words, Lu Yu thought so.
Wu Haiming's decision is very rational, and he can see the benefits of the overall rise of Huaxia tea very thoroughly.
Once Huaxia black tea can really rise, then the Waishan black tea in his hand, which is similar to "tobacco seeds", will inevitably increase the price.
At that time, those foreigners will never think that they can buy the tea he made by himself at the "cabbage price"!
Bian Liangji also nodded: "Your idea is right, and this is also the responsibility of our generation of tea people...... Lu Yu, your tea is so good, do you have a psychological price?"
Psychological price?
Lu Yu smiled slightly: "My tea is not for sale, what I want to sell is Xinyang Maojian Spring Tea next spring." ”
"Spring tea?" Bian Liangji looked at Lu Yu in surprise.
Lu Yu nodded: "Yes, we have already started to prepare for mass production, and now we are doing transplanting and cultivation work, and the output next spring will not be too much, if you are interested, I will leave some for you." ”
"It turns out that your kid has already thought about it!" Bian Liangji gave a thumbs up.
Wu Haiming also smiled: "No wonder you are determined to win the first place, it turns out that you have already started planning." ”
In fact, it is not surprising that they were surprised by this.
After all, before passing the evaluation to get the ranking and get the order, no one wants to make more risk investment in a new tea product.
This is all the result of the recession of Huaxia tea in the market.
But Lu Yu is different, he has the experience of the original world, and firmly believes that Xinyang Maojian will definitely be able to come out on top and successfully occupy the market and cause a sensation!
In the same way, he also believes that those simple tea farmers at the foot of Zhenlei Mountain will not let him down!
……
Because the qualifiers were not held immediately, all three are in a relaxed state right now.
After they chatted a few more words about tomorrow night's celebration tea party or the sales tea party.
The tea talent qualification evaluation has also entered the final stage.
The last 20 new tea people also came to the lounge one after another.
"Lu Yu! I'm a real tea man now!"
As soon as Zhang Yuan entered the door, he ran to Lu Yu screaming, and the excitement on his face was beyond words!
How many years of hard work and expectations have finally come true, although he is only in danger, but he is still excited to himself!
After a bear hug.
Lu Yu smiled: "Congratulations to you Zhang Yuan!"
Zhang Yuan nodded heavily: "Although I am only a fifth-level tea man now, and I am not qualified to participate in the promotion competition, I will continue to work hard to catch up with your footsteps!"
Lu Yu, Bian Liangji and the others laughed.
Although they don't know how hard Zhang Yuan works, the person who can become a tea man by himself with ordinary talent and ordinary background is definitely worthy of respect!
At this time, Zheng Keke, Yi Lan and Shao Yang and other familiar newcomers also came over.
After everyone congratulated each other.
Bian Liangji proposed: "Tomorrow everyone is fine, why don't we get drunk tonight?"
