Chapter 69

Just when Coca's headquarters made the decision to send Caesar and Frank to Honsavady to investigate the matter.

Yangon in Honsavady.

As one of the two largest beverage producers in Hong Kong.

Venus Company and SARS Company also felt a lot of pressure, and in the past few years, Coca-Cola and Pepsi's products have continued to enter, and they can only barely resist.

Now in the face of the Aoba Group, which is like a raptor crossing the river, there is almost no power to fight back, after all, the price is there.

Locals, whose income is already pitiful, are very price-sensitive when it comes to buying things.

If it weren't for some specialty products, Venus Company and SARS Company would have been unable to hold on.

But the bosses of both companies know very well that if they don't think about it, Coca-Cola and Pepsi will be kicked out of Honsavady, they don't know, but Venus and SARS will definitely be finished.

Just today, someone from the Aoba Group called them and invited the owners of the two companies to Dawei Port.

Hearing the news, both of them quickly took their cronies and went straight to Dawei Port.

In the passenger port of Dawei.

Wu De, the owner of SARS, is a short, middle-aged man; The tall middle-aged man with glasses on the side is Jing Hu, the boss of Venus Company.

The two walked together and got off the passenger ship.

Flagged down a few taxis.

"Driver, go to the headquarters of the Aoba Group." Jinghu said to the driver.

"To the Aoba Group? No problem. The taxi driver glanced at the two of them and did not tell them that the Tuva Taxi Company was a subsidiary of the Aoba Group.

Jing Hu, who was sitting in the car, and Wu De, looked at the streets of Dawei Harbor.

Compared to the dilapidated streets of other cities in Honsavady, the roads in Dawei Port are quite well repaired, which is the first impression of the two.

In fact, they didn't know that because the local black and white were their own people, Aoba Construction Company, a subsidiary of the Aoba Group, contracted the infrastructure construction project of the entire city.

On the one hand, it is to digest the cement produced by another subsidiary, Aoba Building Materials.

On the other hand, it is to legally eat the official financial funds of Dawei Port.

Therefore, the area around Dawei Port is not only improving the supporting facilities of the port, but also constantly building roads, and the cement road from the port to the headquarters of the Aoba Group was built for the first time and has been completed recently.

The two soon saw that on the south side of the road, there was another track being laid, which was actually to reduce the bumpy road transportation and allow the factory and the port to directly connect with each other.

On the north side, there are residential areas and factories.

At present, the glass industry is the pillar industry of Dawei Port, and the beverage industry is actually just a subsidiary industry.

In addition to the glass factory No. 1 (flat glass) and glass factory No. 2 (glass bottles) that have been put into production, there are currently three glass factories under construction.

In Dawei, a small city with a population of more than 100,000, there is not much labor force at all, especially literate workers, who are suddenly siphoned clean by the factories.

Therefore, the port of Dawei was very prosperous at this time, and if you work in a glass factory or a beverage factory, or become a construction worker or farm worker, it is a very good job.

The Aoba Group frantically merged various industries in the local area, and then formed a stable internal circulation, and before you knew it, the entire Dawei Port, and even the province of Taninthari, were under the economic control of the Aoba Group.

This control is extremely terrifying.

For example, at this time, the Tuwa Taxi Company was one of the subsidiaries of the Aoba Passenger Transport Company, but few people knew about this hidden relationship.

Another example is the industrial avenue in front of you, where the land and shops on the north side are the property of Aoba Real Estate Company.

Except for some of the local self-employed and small landlords, the rest of the people are either working for the Aoba Group or are relatives of employees.

Under these circumstances, coupled with the extremely weak control over the local area in Honsavady, the Aoba group grew wildly in the local area.

Of course, in order to avoid the Aoba Group from becoming a target, Liu Zhifan and the three also adopted a variety of measures.

For example, there are various intricate cross-holdings.

In other regions, local puppets are used to form joint ventures, offshore companies, or independent shareholding by soldiers.

It seems that the Aoba Group is only a monopoly in Taninthari Province, but in fact, it has extended its tentacles to the whole of Honsavady, but it has not been exposed.

In addition, in the white and underworld, it has also supported many spokespersons, and even installed a lot of soldiers and managers.

In the base camp of Dawei Port, no matter how strong the forces behind Wu De and Jinghu are, there is no way to threaten the Aoba Group.

When Wu De and Jinghu came to the headquarters of the Aoba Group, they were a little surprised, not that this headquarters building was very majestic, but very shabby.

If it weren't for the logo and name of the Aoba Group hanging on it, they would have thought that the driver had come to the wrong place.

"Brother Jinghu, let's go!"

The two got out of the car, took their cronies and bodyguards, and explained their intentions directly to the security guard at the door.

After a while, someone took them up.

Reception room.

Liu Zhifan saw that the two people led by him were one tall and one short, he looked at the photos of the two of them, and said with a smile: "Please sit down, tea or coffee?" ”

"Green tea!" Jing Hu sat on the sofa opposite first.

"Me too." Wu De secretly observed Liu Zhifan.

After Liu Zhifan instructed his assistant to pour the tea, he went straight to the point and said: "Two, I know that there are people behind you, but the Qingye Group also has them. ”

Jing Hu didn't say anything about Venus, but reminded: "The dealers of Coca-Cola and Pepsi are not easy to mess with. ”

Both of them know that they are all white gloves.

It's just that they don't know that the Aoba Group is a silver bracelet, and the so-called backer behind it has to obey the orders of the Aoba Group.

"If we have money, we can make it together, and we are also reasonable." Liu Zhifan said with a smile.

Jinghu stared at Liu Zhifan and said: "Then please ask your company to adjust the price of the product back to normal, otherwise it will not be beneficial to everyone if the vicious competition continues." ”

"No...... I have a better offer. Liu Zhifan handed the two documents to the two of them.

Jinghu and Wu De glanced at each other, but they didn't say anything, they planned to see what Liu Zhifan meant.

As soon as they opened the file, their faces changed.

"Are you sure? Supply us glass bottles at this price? Wu De couldn't help but ask.

Liu Zhifan nodded: "That's the price, the condition is that you will advance and retreat with us and kick Coca-like and Pepsi out of the Honsavady market." ”

Jing Hu and Wu De quickly exchanged glances, and at the same time calculated the cost in their hearts, the cost of beverage packaging is the highest proportion of a bottle of drink.

According to the price of the Aoba Group, they can get the glass bottle at half the price equivalent to a plastic bottle.

In this way, the company's beverage production cost can be reduced to about a quarter of the retail price, especially those specialty drinks, and the competitiveness will be greatly improved.

It's just that the two of them are still skeptical.

"If you are worried about the supply of glass bottles, we can sign a long-term contract, which can be 3 or even 10 years, and set a huge amount of liquidated damages."

Liu Zhifan's proposal quickly dispelled the last doubt in the hearts of the two.

But Jing Hu and the others didn't know that Liu Zhifan was fishing, and he was also borrowing his strength.

The fish is the person behind the two of them, and Liu Zhifan plans to invite important members of the other party to come to the private island near Dawei Harbor to play for a while through this cooperation.

At the same time, let the forces behind the two help Aoba Group to resist the dealers of Cocaa and Pepsi head-on.
