Chapter 69: Embarrassed Sydney

If the automotive industry is in a hurry right now.

Then Sydney and Sanxin are in a hurry.

Because of the battery door incident, Sanxin mobile phone was improperly handled by Dongtang, which led to a direct avalanche of Sanxin mobile phone sales in Dongtang.

Moreover, Sydney has been affected by the impact of domestic mobile phones, and a large number of domestic mobile phones equipped with Thor batteries have lost a large part of Sydney's mobile phones.

The annual sales volume of Sydney mobile phones in 2016 was only 176 million units, a year-on-year decrease of 23% compared with 2015.

What is even more worrying about Cook is that with the official production of Hony Battery's factory in Shanmei in January 2017, domestic mobile phones such as Oppai, VO, and Meizu have also begun to join the camp of Raytheon Battery.

This made Sydney's pressure even greater.

If it weren't for the sudden ban on the sale of Thor batteries by the Ministry of Commerce of Mi Lijia, I am afraid that Sydney mobile phones would be even more difficult.

Although about two-fifths of the global market has been retained, unaffected by Raytheon batteries, Cook knows that this is not a long-term solution.

As soon as the sales volume of Sydney's mobile phone came out in 2016, Sydney's stock price suddenly plummeted, falling by about 11% in more than a week, which is equivalent to evaporating 110 billion US dollars.

Many shareholders are already very dissatisfied with Sydney's performance, and at the same time have expressed doubts about Cook's ability, and many are even proposing to remove Cook.

After all, the sago capital market is so cruel, it is delicious and spicy, and airplanes and yachts are not a problem; If you can't do it, roll me up and get out of the way immediately.

They are not state-owned enterprises in the Eastern Tang Dynasty with a strong "human touch", and the mentality of the capitalists is, you can't make money for me, what do you want.

"Ahem! Mr. Cook! ”

A vice president interrupted Cook's musings.

"Mr. Atlanta! What's the matter?"

"Is President Cook thinking about how to solve the sales problem?" Atlanta asked.

Cook nodded: "That's right, I didn't expect the Thor battery to have such a huge impact on us." ”

"If we can use Raytheon batteries, maybe we can save sales." Atlanta said pointedly.

Cook lifted his glasses, stared at Atlanta and reminded: "Mr. Atlanta, you should know about the relationship with Raytheon Battery Company now!" ”

"Of course! But this world is not the only Raytheon battery company selling Raytheon batteries. Atlanta said with a raised eyebrow.

Well? Cook looked thoughtful and asked with some uncertainty:

"Do you mean flowers for mobile phones?"

"No, no, it's this company!" Atlanta handed a document to Cook.

After taking it, Cook immediately flipped through it, Xiangjiang Bear Battery Company? After a moment, Cook stared at Atlanta:

"This is obviously a leather bag company, do you believe they can make Thor batteries?"

"President Cook, I have already investigated, this company is indeed a leather bag company, but the Raytheon battery they sell is the real Raytheon battery, which is produced by Raytheon Battery and Desay Battery."

Immediately Cook knew what Atlanta meant, that is, this battery is labeled with the brand of Bear Battery, so it is not a Thor battery.

He frowned and thought for a while, then nodded:

"I'll leave this to you."

"But their prices ......"

"Okay, we can design the battery a little smaller, about sixty dollars is enough, shit Thor battery." Cook had to eat the blood loss.

If no action is taken, Sydney's stock price will continue to be depressed, and his position as president will almost come to an end.

Isn't it just one gram and two US dollars! Lao Tzu gave it, but it was a big deal to sell it a little more expensive.

"Okay, as you wish, President Cook." Atlanta left laughing.

……

Xiangjiang Central, Orion corporate headquarters.

Sniff!

"Come in!"

"Mr. Wang, good news, look!" The person in charge of Xiaoxiong Battery handed an email to Wang Zhiqiang.

Wang Zhiqiang took it and saw that it was a letter of intent for cooperation with Sydney.

He couldn't help laughing, Wang Zhiqiang didn't believe that Sydney didn't know that Bear Battery Company was behind Raytheon Battery Company.

But since the other party pretended not to know, he was also willing to cooperate.

Sure enough, the law of true fragrance is not so easy to resist.

Soon Atlanta took the people from the Sydney Company to Xiangjiang secretly to negotiate with the Bear Battery Company.

Considering that Thor batteries are really blocked by Meimeijian now, Sydney only needs to switch Sydney phones in non-prohibited areas to bear batteries.

As for the no-sale zone, Cook and Atlanta are both understanding people, and it's okay to play with the public to steal the concept, but this kind of thing is absolutely impossible to hide from Meijian.

Therefore, Sydney mobile phones in the prohibited area can only use LG Chem's batteries, which can just save billions of dollars.

After three days of intense negotiations, Atlanta, on behalf of Sydney, purchased 30 million mobile phone batteries from Bear Battery, one (including 25 gram cells) 63 US dollars.

A total of 1.89 billion US dollars, the bear battery company, not only raised the price, but also asked Sydney to pay half of the deposit in advance, but Sydney, who was subject to others, could only reluctantly accept this harsh condition.

"Haha, cheers!" Wang Zhiqiang and several people in charge of Orion celebrated excitedly.

"Cheers, it's so cool to slaughter."

"Haha, these ghosts didn't come to buy it obediently in the end."

Wang Zhiqiang took a sip of red wine and said with a smile: "This is the power of technology, these ghosts used to be the same for us, this is called feng shui in turns." ”

"Mr. Wang, this time we have 54 million US dollars, I must be chic."

In order to encourage the enthusiasm of Orion, Huang Haojie asked Raytheon Battery Company to wholesale them at a price of 2 US dollars per gram of battery cells.

And Orion let Desay battery OEM, a battery only give Desay 1 US knife.

So Orion sold it to Sydney, and a battery made 12 US dollars.

And Wang Zhiqiang and others have 15% of the dividends, that is, 54 million US dollars.

Of course, Orion will not pay all the profits at once, but on a quarterly basis, plus the company itself needs to retain a part of the operating expenses, but even so, they can get dividends ranging from hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars.

On the evening of the signing of the contract, Wang Zhiqiang reported to Huang Haojie that Sydney Company had placed an order for 30 million mobile phone batteries with Xiaoxiong Battery Company.

"Well done! Since Sydney wants to steal the beams and change the pillars, we will help him, and you can ask Desai to remove all the logos about Raytheon batteries, so as not to embarrass our President Cook. Huang Haojie commanded with a smile.

"No problem, the customer is God! Of course, we want to do our best for our customers! ”

"Do a good job, I won't treat you badly, by the way, Zhai Shaojun, the manager of the investment department of Orion Company, and Huang Zefu, the deputy manager of the logistics department, go check on them." Huang Haojie suddenly commanded a little coldly.

Grunt! Wang Zhiqiang suddenly had a feeling of being watched, and hurriedly replied respectfully:

"No problem, I'll investigate them right away."

"Hmmm! Don't let me down! You're busy! ”

Huang Haojie hung up the phone after speaking.

For these guys who are far away from the emperor of the mountain, they just want to kill chickens and monkeys and beat, Huang Haojie has actually received the information that these two guys are making small moves.

He is just trying Wang Zhiqiang this time, if Wang Zhiqiang shields these two people, then the president of Orion Company will be replaced.
