(Chapter 492 has been released)

After the US government's forced takeover came out, not to mention foreign countries, even the ordinary people of their own countries made a fuss, complaining one after another: How can people open a restaurant and sell some Chinese food to their national security? Don't let people eat yet, do you?

It is not surprising that the people of the United States will be so angry, after all, McDonald's and KFC have long been tired of eating these fried chicken burgers, and now there is finally a high-quality Chinese food brand that can replace these fast foods, which is of good quality and low price, which greatly meets the needs of ordinary people.

As for China, many people are upset about Li Han and Cranberry Food Co., Ltd., but Li Han himself actually has no waves in his heart, and this matter will not reach the most stiff step.

Putting aside the plan he prepared himself, if he really can't negotiate, Li Han will directly apply for asset settlement and then the company will be delisted, and the matter will be over when it is closed, and there is no need for a U.S. acquisition.

But the United States will not allow this to happen, because if there are more than 1,000 fast food outlets at once, they will lose hundreds of thousands of jobs and a lot of tax revenue.

What's more, the shareholders of Cranberry Foods Limited will not agree either.

In the United States, the rich people have the final say, and the two shares issued by Cranberry Foods Co., Ltd., American funds and brokerages have also bought a lot of their shares, and now is the time for the stock price to rise, and these rich people are eager to keep their shares for a while longer.

If Cranberry Foods Co., Ltd. is forced by the United States to delist and settle its assets, then the shareholders of the entire company can be said to have no survivors.

The market value of Cranberry is $80 billion, but in fact, Li Han holds less than 30% of the shares, and his loss is not small, but the foundation and brokerage companies have lost even more.

Therefore, the United States is actually betting that Li Han will not dare to lose both with them, but will choose to stop losses.

What can Li Han not dare? This is the brand he has worked so hard to create, and he would rather burn it than give it to others.

And those brokerages and funds in the United States will not agree to the development of things to this point, so Li Han is not worried.

What's more, it is also true that the country is strong, and now China will not be bullied by any country.

But Li Han now has to give confidence to his employees and partners.

The next day, he came to Cranberry Foods Co., Ltd. for a meeting with all employees.

The last time it was listed overseas, Li Han spent more than 100 million yuan to buy this office building, and there is a small auditorium here for all employees to gather.

"Regarding the news from the United States in recent days, I would like to respond to you." Li Han looked at the employees below, cleared his throat and said, "Please rest assured, we will not be bought by anyone, no one can snatch it from me, even if it is to dissolve this company I founded with my own hands, I will not let it be robbed by robbers." ”

The employees below suddenly whispered, and looked even more uneasy.

"In addition, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of our country has also issued a statement that it will support us behind our backs." Li Han smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if the company is gone, because I'm here." The loss is only temporary now, and soon I will earn it back. ”

As soon as this sentence was spoken, it was much quieter below, after all, this is a legendary investor.

"The U.S. Department of Commerce is now asking for either a transfer of the entire company or a sale of close to 30 percent of my shares. And neither of these is possible. Li Han hugged his arm and said, "We are now developing well in Japan, South Korea and Europe, and we can survive even without a branch in the United States." If they continue to force acquisitions, then don't ask for any. ”

Speaking of this, Li Han looked at the employees below: "In this regard, I hope everyone in the company is on the same line as me. In terms of shares, we can also re-list in Japan, South Korea and Europe, and then earn it back. The influence of the brand is here, it is not a difficult thing, I hope everyone has confidence. ”

In the end, Li Han smiled: "Of course, what I'm telling you now is only the worst-case scenario, and this situation may not necessarily happen." So, we just need to continue to work as hard as before. ”

"Don't worry, brother-in-law, I absolutely support your decision!" Yang Gang shouted coldly below.

"Yes, we all listen to you." Liu Chang also smiled and agreed, and then turned to the employees behind him: "It's a big deal to start all over again, our brand is now so popular in Japan, South Korea and Europe, as long as the stock price is listed, there is nothing to worry about." ”

This gossip can be regarded as calming the mood of the employees.

After all, the employees in the company also hold a part of the shares, but if they are forced to delist, they will have to settle their assets according to the current number of stores, and then compensate shareholders according to their shares.

The stock price of Cranberry Foods Co., Ltd. is very frothy, and the money from the settlement of its property may only account for one-tenth of the value of the shares in everyone's hands.

Therefore, Li Han could not let this happen, and the U.S. Department of Commerce did not want to make such a fuss.

After pacifying the people in his company, Li Han began to prepare to deal with all kinds of damage that the United States might make.

If Li Han refuses this compulsory acquisition, he may face US sanctions against him, that is, the freezing and seizure of Li Han's personal assets abroad.

But it's a pity that Li Han doesn't have any assets such as houses and cars abroad, and he is not afraid of freezing assets, but the real trouble is to restrict his foreign exchange and hinder his activities in the nationality financial market.

Li Han suspects that restricting his participation in financial activities is the key to this operation, after all, under his influence, Wall Street has already lost a lot of money, so Wall Street people came up with such a ghost idea: either Li Han will sell his company cheaply to make up for their losses during this time, or he will withdraw from the international financial market from now on and stop making trouble for them.

Whichever Li Han chooses, it deserves a champagne celebration from Wall Street, which is their only way to win.

It is precisely because of this that Li Han has to fight back against this group of people on Wall Street even more, so that they are painful and afraid, and they dare not go against him again......

However, while Li Han was preparing, he was suddenly contacted by the Japan Agricultural Association.

When Li Han came to the side of Qiaokou Company, he saw a greasy and obese middle-aged Mediterranean old man on the screen.

At first glance, the old man looks easy-going and kind, but on closer inspection he is a little obscene and gloomy. The other party's name is Ichiro Kishimoto, and he is the vice president of the Japan Agricultural Association. In fact, if the other party doesn't say it, Li Han can guess that the other party's purpose is to want him to give up the Japanese agricultural market so that the Japanese Agricultural Association can continue to maintain a monopoly position.

"Li Sang, as long as you dissolve the agricultural cooperative, we are willing to provide you and your store with ingredients at a price 20% lower than the cost price, what do you think of this condition?" Ichiro Kishimoto asked with a smile.

"Hmph." Li Han smiled slightly, and replied simply: "I refuse." ”

"Why? It's good for everyone, right? Ichiro Kishimoto looked a little confused.

"I've been in business for a few years, you can't lie to me like that." Li Han smiled and said, "You calculate, I agree with your conditions, which is nothing more than earning 20% more on the price of ingredients." Right? ”

Speaking of this, Li Han's face sank: "Then what if I continue to cooperate with farmers?" I can earn a 50% share of the ingredients, and I will still calculate this account. ”

"But can you really snatch this business from us?" Ichiro Kishimoto smiled a little grimly.

"What are you talking about?" Li Han asked puzzled, "Didn't I already grab it?" ”

Ichiro Kishimoto's brows furrowed slightly, as if choked on this sentence. Li Han continued with a smile: "You see, up to now, our first store has not even opened, and we have signed long-term cooperation contracts with 400 farmers, and the ingredients provided by these farmers are enough for us to open 40 branches. ”

"Looks like you're going to have to wade into this troubled water?" Ichiro Kishimoto stared at Li Han and asked.

"Of course." Li Han shrugged his shoulders, "This is a healthy market, isn't it?" A competitive market is a healthy market, which is the basic rule of the world. ”

"It's a shame." Ichiro Kishimoto sneered, "Originally, I thought you would be a little smarter at this moment of being suppressed by the United States, but I didn't expect you to choose to go to war." In that case, we will accompany you to the end. Let's see how long you, the 'legendary investor', can fight against the agricultural associations that have monopolized the country for 20 years under US sanctions? ”

"Interesting." Li Han smiled, "I'm also curious, let's see if I can't hold it first or if you can't hold it first." ”

Ichiro Kishimoto snorted coldly, and then cut off the video conference.

Li Han yawned nonchalantly, and spit out two words like spit out the skin of melon seeds: "Idiot......"

The next thing the agricultural associations did was to raise the cost of cranberry agricultural cooperatives by buying ingredients from farmers at higher prices; Second, it drives down the market price of ingredients, thereby squeezing the profits of cranberry agricultural cooperatives.

But it doesn't matter what kind of Li Han is, because the contract with the farmers is very clear, any income will be shared with the farmers, unless the agricultural association itself is also at a loss, otherwise they will definitely be able to make a profit.

And even if the agricultural association really sells ingredients at a loss, then Li Han doesn't care, anyway, he has his own glass handmade hamburger that can digest these ingredients internally, and it will be over if he earns the difference from the finished product.

The Japanese Agricultural Association may be able to act recklessly in Japan, but Japan is only such a large area, and the arable land is not much, which is much smaller than China's agricultural volume.

It's like taking the resources and strategies that have cleared the hard mode, and now facing the boss of the normal mode, isn't it casual?
