That night, Jia Yapeng ended his trip to the magic capital, returned to Yuzhang City as quickly as possible, and then issued an order to dealers across the country, asking them to immediately investigate the pirated cards in the area.

At the same time, Jia Yapeng also asked Chen Liren to ask for a relationship, found some shady guys, and asked them to conduct an investigation, and after five days, all the news was summarized into Jia Yapeng's hands.

"Mr. Jia, according to the reports of dealers around the country, all provinces in the south have basically found some traces of pirated cards, and the northern provinces have not yet found them, so it can be judged that the source of these pirated cards should be in a certain province in the south, and now it has only spread to the south, and the north has not been affected for the time being!" Zhu Qiushui didn't have a good rest for a week, and she was cooperating with Jia Yapeng to investigate, at this time, her eyes were red, and even her skin was not so watery.

As soon as she joined the company, she had to take on such a heavy task, which was really difficult for her.

"I guess it's also in the south, but in the end, it's the southerners who have more flexible heads!" Jia Yapeng said with a sigh.

Well, Jia Yapeng himself is also a southerner.

"Boss, according to your order, the people of various provinces and cities have sent people to send the cards of those cottages they have collected directly by train, and after my statistics, I found that according to the sources of these cottage cards, they are divided into 21 kinds in total." Zhu Qiu Waterway.

"In other words, there are 21 manufacturers who have copied our Water Margin hero Karo! There are so many heroes! Jia Yapeng said with a smile.

"These copycat Water Margin hero cards are basically sold locally, they can't interfere with others, and the damage to us is limited, because these cards are very inferior and basically printed on hard-shell paper. Not only is the paper very bad, but also the printed card surface is also blurred, some even do not have a plastic layer, and some characters are printed backwards, the text is wrong, the words are missing, the words are missing, and even half of the card surface is directly missing! It should all be printed in a small factory. ”

"So these copycat cards don't pose much of a threat to us, because a discerning person can see at a glance that these are fake and don't have any collectible value!"

"In addition, these cards are also sold very cheaply, basically a few dollars can buy hundreds of cards, I think, the children who will be willing to spend money to buy these cards are those who do not have much pocket money, or live in poverty, they don't have much money to buy crispy noodles!"

"These copycat cards are just bought to satisfy their vanity, and we don't really make much money from them. And our real main customers are rich kids, and the main purpose of these kids buying cards is to show off among their peers. And if you flaunt these cards that you can tell at a glance to be fake, these kids won't get what they want, they'll be laughed at, so they won't buy them! Zhu Qiushui said eloquently.

"Oh, if you say so, copycat cards aren't a cause for concern!" Jia Yapeng couldn't help but laugh.

"It's not that it's not a matter of concern, it's just that their damage to us is limited, and more importantly, we can't completely ban these copycat things, I have my own national conditions in China, and we can't change it!" Zhu Qiu Waterway.

"I see what you mean!" Jia Yapeng nodded, the genuine environment of Huaxia has really improved, that is after 2010, since that time, Huaxia people's awareness of the maintenance of genuine has become higher and higher.

Because the children in this area are basically children born after 90 years, when they grow up, the country has become rich, and quality education has been rolled out in an all-round way.

The quality of users has improved, and piracy has naturally decreased.

"But boss, among these cards, there is a set of cards that pose a great threat to us, and if we can't get rid of them as soon as possible, I'm afraid it will really cause us a great loss!" Zhu Qiushui said with a frown.

"I know which deck of cards you're talking about, and I bought this set of cards myself!" Jia Yapeng also smiled bitterly, the set of cards in Zhu Qiushui's mouth was the set of cards that Jia Yapeng bought in the magic capital.

Later, Jia Yapeng personally found the stall and bought a whole box of 108 Water Margin hero cards for 5 yuan.

"I've looked at these cards carefully, and among the 21 sets of cards, 20 sets are just cards of our first 5 issues, a total of 100 Water Margin heroes, because these are all cards that we have already sold, and it's not surprising that they can copy them."

"But this set of cards includes 8 cards that we haven't officially released yet. What's more, this set of cards is so well printed that it's almost as real as it gets, and even when I compare the two sets of cards between the original and the pirated, it's hard to see the difference! ”

"That's the biggest threat to us, because even the buyers can't tell if these pirated cards are real or fake, so whether you buy the original or pirated ones, you get the same result. Will the children be willing to spend 5 cents a piece to fight for luck and bet on a genuine Water Margin hero card? ”

"No, they will immediately buy those pirated cards, after all, 5 yuan can collect all the Water Margin hero cards, no one can resist such a temptation! I'm afraid that in less than a month at most, the sales of our noodles will drop by more than half. "Zhu Qiushuidao.

"I don't have to wait for a month, it's only been a week, and the sales of various provinces and cities have already been reduced by half!" Jia Yapeng angrily slammed the documents in his hand on the desktop, these losses were all living money.

What's even worse is that Jia Yapeng used all his funds to buy a house before, and now there are only a few million of liquidity left in the account, but the company's expenses have not decreased, but with the continuous development of the company, the cost is getting higher and higher.

Although at this time, compared with the cost, the sales are still earned, and the profit is still there, and it is estimated that it will be able to earn millions this month. But if it continues to decay like this, Jia Yapeng's business empire, which has finally just begun to develop, will collapse in the middle way.

"Boss, our top priority at the moment is to find out the source of the production of these cards, and then call the police, bring these people to justice, and protect our legal rights!" Zhu Qiushui said, "It's just that this is probably more difficult, it takes a lot of time to investigate and collect evidence, and the public security side has to cooperate with us as much as possible, so I'm afraid it will take a long time!" ”

"It won't take long for me to know where this pirated card comes from!" Jia Yapeng's eyes flashed with a strange light.
