Chapter 604: Competition and Cooperation
After a busy night, representatives of foreign companies came to the headquarters of Xianhu Company with confidence or apprehension, ready to compete for the right to cooperate with Xianhu Company. However, when everyone went to the fairy pot company, they found that their efforts last night were in vain.
Xiao Ping received all the delegates in the large conference room, and on the table in front of everyone there was a large sealed envelope. After everyone sat down, Xiao Ping smiled and said to everyone: "Welcome to the company's headquarters, I think what we saw yesterday has made everyone understand the company's situation, and we have also made a decision on whether to cooperate with the company." What is placed in front of you is the minimum requirements of the company for partners, and you can take it back and read it before making a decision. If we can accept these conditions, we will send someone to the local area to conduct an inspection and select the most suitable company as a partner. ”
I didn't expect Xiao Ping to put forward such a condition, and the representatives of various companies also had mixed reactions. Naturally, the big companies that have the strength are very happy, because then they have a better chance of coming out on top. The small companies with slightly inferior strength are a little worried, and many representatives are already secretly considering whether to make some additional concessions on the conditions proposed by the Xianhu Company to strive for a longer and shorter opportunity with the big companies.
This plan was decided by Xiao Ping after discussing with Zhong Weirong and other senior executives of the company. At present, the brand "Xianju" is already quite famous in the world, and it is natural to be more cautious in choosing partners. In order to avoid small foreign companies fishing in troubled waters, each collaborator must be strictly reviewed, and those who do not meet the company's requirements do not want to get the agency.
Xiao Ping's approach is of course more beneficial to large and reputable companies, and Schmidt, vice president of the German MTD company, is very satisfied with Xiao Ping's decision. MTD is Germany's largest agricultural marketing company. All else being equal, they will of course have a great advantage.
Schmidt was concerned with other issues. He tapped his fingers lightly on the table and asked Xiao Ping: "Mr. Xiao, I want to know that there is a competition between the two collaborators. How your company will react. ”
Xiao Ping smiled faintly and said: "In order to ensure everyone's interests, the company will try to avoid this situation, and the details are in the documents for you. Tomorrow night, the company will hold a farewell reception for you, I wish you all a satisfactory outcome of your trip to China, please be sure to enjoy it. ”
Now that Xiao Ping has talked about this, everyone has no more questions to ask. Everyone went back with the document with mixed feelings, and planned to carefully study the contents before considering countermeasures.
A few minutes later, Xiao Ping returned to his office and stood in front of the large glass as representatives of foreign companies left the Hang Lung Tower.
Zhong Weirong was standing next to him. Worriedly, he asked, "Are we pushing them too hard, will it backfire?"
"Don't worry, the initiative is in our hands, and these people won't be ignorant of the value of the jade vegetables. Xiao Ping said confidently: "Wait and see, they will try their best to cooperate with us." ”
It turns out that Xiao Ping's statement is not wrong at all. Although the representatives of foreign companies had their own opinions on the company's approach, they all attended the farewell reception the next day. In fact, everyone is more warm and friendly to Xiao Ping, and everyone wants him to maintain a good relationship, which will help to compete for the qualification of a partner of the Xianhu Company.
Of course, Xiao Ping greeted these potential partners with a smile. Talk and laugh in the crowd. It can be said that the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves, and the atmosphere of the reception was very harmonious.
Of course, representatives of foreign companies did not come to the reception simply to enhance their relationship with Xiao Ping. They are more important tasks. It is still best to understand the situation of the Xianhu company in various aspects, such as the ability to supply vegetable seeds, varieties, and whether there is any possibility of cooperation in other aspects.
Camille, the development manager of the French Eda company, asked Xiao Ping with great concern: "Mr. Xiao." Do you provide other ingredients to your partners in addition to vegetable seeds, such as truffles and beef that your company exhibited at the New York Food Fair. I think it will be very popular in the European market. ”
"You're right, Mr. Camille. Xiao Ping smiled and said, "Of course, we will take into account the European eating habits. Make some adjustments to the ingredients provided. In addition to the truffle and beef that have already been introduced, there will be more ingredients that are popular in the European market, such as foie gras and caviar, which are currently under consideration. Our technical staff are working hard to get these two ingredients available as soon as possible. ”
Xiao Ping's words were not made up to deal with these foreigners on an ad hoc basis, but a decision after careful consideration. Since Xiao Ping intends to enter the European market, there is no doubt that he must prepare some products that are popular with the local market. If you just move the domestic products as they are, this approach will definitely not work.
Xianhu company has always taken the high-quality route, and some high-end ingredients are a must. In the European market, truffles, foie gras and caviar, which are known as the three most delicious in the world, are of course the first choice.
Now the truffles are there, and what is missing is foie gras and caviar. Although Xiao Ping didn't have a clue about how to produce these two ingredients for the time being, he had the Demon Refining Pot to rely on after all, so he wasn't too worried about it.
Xiao Ping's answer also greatly satisfied the deputies. Although the quality of the jade vegetables is top-notch, these alone are a bit insufficient. Add truffles, foie gras, caviar and premium beef to the mix.
Thinking of this, everyone's desire to cooperate with the fairy pot company is even more urgent, and they all plan to persuade the company's senior management to try to become a partner of the fairy pot company even if they want to give up more benefits.
Compared with the previous welcome reception with a strong business taste, the nature of this farewell reception was much more private, and most of the guests brought female companions, and Xiao Ping, as the host, was no exception.
Although Xiao Ping has a lot of confidants, Song Lei and Hu Mei are filming in other places, Jessica is far away in the United States, and Zhang Yuxin is inconvenient to attend such an occasion, so his best choice is naturally Li Wanqing.
Tonight, Li Wanqing is wearing a set of pure white dresses, which just sets off her gentle and lovely temperament. Coupled with the faint smile that always stays at the corner of her mouth, Li Wanqing, who is already very beautiful, has become the most beautiful female guest at the reception.
While Xiao Ping was talking to the company representatives, Li Wanqing was also chatting with other female companions nearby, and her conversation with one of them aroused Xiao Ping's interest. (To be continued......)
