Chapter 1285: Desperate Survival

"Then why are you notifying me now?"

At this time, James's voice was like a lion roaring. His body was also covered with a golden-red flame. makes his already mountain-like body and beast-like momentum even more breathtaking.

The temperature in this office rose violently, and the fire sprinkler head on the ceiling suddenly spewed out countless liquids, and after coming into contact with James's golden flame, the steam suddenly overflowed.

Atwood expected this to be the result, and said in a difficult voice: "I only found out about this result today. The companies that initially broke away from our sales system were either located in the vicinity of Guangcheng Star Field, or had close business ties with the Weiyan Group. Therefore, the people below thought that this was the Weiyan Group, relying on their influence to expand sales channels, until yesterday, when Dongtang Department Store, Camilla Cosmeceutical Chain and Weiyangtang Department Store sent a notification letter at the same time, they felt that the matter was important. ”

"So I have a reason to chop up these incompetent guys and feed them to the dogs, right?"

When James said this, he remembered that his son Stoke Fox was in charge of the specific operation of the company recently.

His heart throbbed, and he withdrew the golden flame around him and put it back in his chair.

"Give me all the information we have collected about Alpha Pharmaceutical, as well as the Sun Moon Hall series of products!"

"Yes! I did a summary before I came here. It's justβ€”"

Atwood glanced at the mess around him: "Is it right here?"

"Where else can you be if you're not here? speed!"

James knocked on the table with an impatient expression: "What kind of environment do you still have to pay attention to at this time?" I am now more worried about my anger in the future, and I will also make a mess of other places. ”

Atwood was speechless for a moment, and could only silently transfer a file as high as 724G to his employer.

And after the latter received it, he only read a few pages in the end, and the golden flames around him had a tendency to rekindle.

As time passed, his complexion became more and more ugly, and in the end, all the blood was completely faded. The golden flames around his body were all extinguished, and the skin exposed to his clothes was covered with goosebumps.

"It'sβ€”"

When James spoke again, his eyes were already dead: "In three days, is it expected that the daily sales of hair growth lotion alone will reach 30 million bottles?

"Yes sir!"

Atwood's voice was astringent, revealing an air of despair: "This hair growth lotion is very effective and can be used by both men and women. Whether it is postpartum hair loss symptoms, hair loss caused by oily hair, or even hereditary baldness, it has a very good effect. The effect is also fast, often within ten days, you can intuitively feel the effect. And it is one of the few cosmeceutical products that does not involve the genetic level at all. It is estimated that if Alpha Pharmaceutical's channels in the Earth Federation are fully opened, the daily sales volume should reach about 100 million to 120 million bottles. Their prices are very cheap, but the bottles are small, only enough for four months at most, and there is no complete cure. ”

James continued to flip through the information: "That is to say, our other channel providers have been shaken across the board, right? Have you consulted these companies to try to recover? As long as our products are not excluded from the shipping price, then it is not unacceptable for our Red Fox Cosmeceuticals to make a large profit concession, or even sell at a reduced price." ”

"I've tried it!"

Atwood still said weakly: "Our concession of up to five percent has not even made them feel the slightest bit excited. Obviously, the billions of federal coins we paid can't be compared with the profits that Riyuetang's set of products may bring to them, unless we come up with more chips, but the annual profit of Red Fox Cosmeceuticals this year is only about 40 billion. In addition, it is not just a matter of money, Alpha Pharmaceutical's cosmeceutical set can not only make them money, but also attract them a lot of popularity and customers, which we can't do. To sum up, there is no substitute for Sun Moon Tang's cosmeceuticals for the time being, but our Red Fox cosmeceutical products can, especially for those department stores. As for price reduction, the chairman, it's still okay to engage in promotional activities temporarily. But once we start a full-scale price war, the entire cosmeceutical industry will become our enemy. ”

James's eyebrows have already made a Sichuan word: "So Wood, how many channel providers do you estimate we can keep, and will we be able to maintain profitability in the future?"

"The current situation is not optimistic!"

Atwood shook his head: "We are still investigating the situation of various channel providers, and it may not be until a day before the results are obtained." However, I estimate that less than 30% of them will be retained in the end, and most of them are small and medium-sized retailers around the New Arizona Star Field, but other than that, this is our own channel. As for profits, I think you'd better prepare for the worst, Mr. Chairman. If, a month later, there is a cliff-like decline in sales of our retail terminals, then the financial statements of Red Fox Cosmeceuticals will definitely be in deficit. Even though we still have about 24 billion federal dollars in cash reserves, butβ€”"

As soon as he said this, there was a crunch in the office. First of all, the desk in front of James suddenly shattered, and then a large number of cracks appeared on the ground, spreading in all directions.

"But this money can't even support us for three months, can it?"

James was struggling to contain his emotions, and he could imagine what the consequences would be if their Red Fox Cosmeceuticals had been losing money for more than three months.

-- Stock prices plummeted, insolvency, major banks pressured loans, suppliers demanded arrears, etc., all of which will happen one by one.

What's worse is that they are still engaged in a costly secret war with the Majesty Group.

"So what does our research department say, can we launch a generic product as soon as possible?"

"If it's just a simple copy, then it only takes four months. But if it's a product that can be marketed, then we have to bypass patents. With 5 billion federal R&D dollars per year, there is a 30% chance that similar cosmeceuticals will be developed within 3 to 5 years. ”

Atwood sighed again: "This means that our company will have to face a cold winter period of at least about three years. ”

Undeterred, James continued: "Four months, barely acceptable. I allow you to use a secret fund to prepare several cosmeceutical production lines in the New Dulan Star Domain. ”

Since you can't defeat your opponent on a frontal battlefield, it's the same with the means under the table.

The New Dulan Star Domain is a new colonial star field and the source of many counterfeit products, which has made many federal corporations deeply aware.

"But their pricing is already very low. ”

Atwood shook his head, obviously not optimistic about James Fox's plans: "I don't think many smuggling ships will be willing to do this kind of business, the profits are too small, and they have to face the crazy blow of the national tax anti-smuggling fleet." Sir, don't forget, if we are going to carry out large-scale production, then our raw material cost will be much higher than theirs. ”
