In fact, there is a part of the natural opposition between the Internet business platform and the merchants, after all, you have to take a cut of their sales, which is inevitable.

Moreover, the group has not settled the payment to the merchant now, and it stands to reason that it will not get the support of any brand.

The most outrageous thing is that 80% of these brands have never worked with the group.

Especially like sweet milk tea.

I remember that when the group buying market entered a period of savage growth, everyone was desperately grabbing merchants, pushing and leaning on the iron fist in a group, and threatened to get out of the hands of the network, and almost fought in the Xijing branch of Xitian.

At that time, Fang Xiaoxuan, the legal representative of Xitian, also publicly said that the behavior of joining the group was too domineering and rude.

It is said that in November, they also suspended their cooperation for a long time because of this incident.

But what's going on now? Dianping was released by more than half of the well-known brands, and Jiang Qin seemed to know it first.

"Don't be in a hurry, don't mess up, notify the Ministry of Commerce, and call to verify."

Zhang Tao immediately made a decision and began to arrange the task.

"Understood."

"In addition, send some red envelopes to the media and tell them to delay the signing of the conference first, and don't let them come here to take photos."

"Okay boss, I'll arrange it right away."

Yang Xueyu nodded, and walked out of the banquet hall, but not long after he left, the door was pushed open again.

A slightly chubby man in a dark blue suit walked in, then looked around the room, said hello to a few people in the fourth row, and then walked straight to the right of the first row.

After sitting down, the man looked left and right, and found that there was no one around, and he was also a little confused, as if he didn't expect this situation.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Tao and Chen Jiaxinyu instantly came to their senses, and then chased after him and stood in front of him.

"Hello, I'm Zhang Tao, the boss of Dianping, and this is our general manager Chen Jiaxin, who are you?"

"Ah, Mr. Zhang and Mr. Chen, hello two, I am Guan Deshan, the manager of Hamburg Emperor North China."

"Hello Manager Guan, I have heard of the name for a long time, you are here to participate in the signing meeting."

"Yes, our boss said that Burger Emperor will always be a partner of Dianping, but I seem to have come too early, why didn't they come?"

"It may still be on the road, you sit first, and I'll find someone to make you tea."

After Zhang Tao finished speaking, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense nerves gradually relaxed.

That's right, there is still a period of time before the signing conference, and the people who come here are all small households, and they come in advance to expand their contacts.

That Jiang Qin must have glanced here when he came, and found that there was no one in the first three rows, so he deliberately put a smoke bomb, damn, what a dog!

But at this moment, Guan Deshan's mobile phone suddenly rang, and he said sorry to Zhang Tao and Chen Jiaxin, and then turned around and picked up the phone.

It was a manager from the headquarters who called, and after a few words, Guan Deshan's smile gradually faded, until finally stiffened on his face and disappeared without a trace.

"Eh, I'm sorry, Mr. Zhang, I have to go first."

Zhang Tao was a little surprised: "What's wrong?" What's wrong? ”

"Uh...... My wife gave birth. ”

Guan Deshan picked up his mobile phone and walked outside in a panic, his mouth still chattering, and his face was full of puzzlement.

Didn't you say that you were as close as a family with Dianping, why did you suddenly say that you are really a family.

It's like a child who has been fostered and started calling Mom and Dad, but as soon as he turned his head, someone came out and said that you are the biological son of the other door, what is this all playing!

Guan Deshan hurriedly clicked on his Weibo, deleted all the Weibo that had followed the public comments to criticize the broken chain of the group's funds, and behaved cleanly and innocently!

"Mr. Guan, Mr. Guan!"

“？”

Zhang Tao chased out a few steps, and saw Guan Deshan running faster and faster, and his face began to become surprisingly embarrassed.

If it was just that the brand owners in the first three rows had not yet arrived, he would still be lucky, but Guan Deshan's rapid running was like a final word, and it smashed directly on his heart.

It's not a smoke bomb, it should be a real accident.

Although I don't know how the other party did it, those partners who were invited in advance should not come, as soon as this idea appeared, Zhang Tao couldn't help but sweat a little.

At the same time, Zhang Zhang hurriedly ran over from behind, came to Chen Jiaxin breathlessly, and handed out the mobile phone that he had been holding in his hand.

The screen is not locked, and on it is a photo of the door of the branch of Xitian Milk Tea Shop, in the photo, a joint poster of their family and the group is pasted on the glass window of Xitian, saying that the new style is on the shelves, and the group can be purchased.

"Xi Tian and the group?"

"It's not just sweetness, there's ...... behind"

Listening to the sound of tension and gasping, Chen Jiaxin immediately rummaged back for photos.

River Fish, Green Pepper Grilled Fish, Hamburger Emperor, Charming Night KTV, Dadi Cinema, Mr. Xianhui, Roadside Skewers, Senbon Foot Bath, Yang Kee, Turtle Chrysanthemum Sushixiang, Steak Buffet in front of the Western Yuan, Vienna Hotel, Benwei Ramen......

All the key chain brands have put up joint posters with the group in their own stores, and even launched exclusive packages for them.

Among them, there are two photos of Dadi Cinema, and the second one clearly states that you will buy tickets in a group and give a small amount of popcorn and coke as an extra gift.

After reading these photos, Chen Jiaxin's eyes were dark, and the whole person retreated three steps before stabilizing his figure.

Jiang Qin used a refund and an advertisement to win the hearts of consumers all over the Internet, but it would be useless if he didn't have a cooperative merchant, but if all these brands went to join the group......

So such a large number of consumers, plus the best quality merchants, the group is going to be crazy tonight.

From a week ago, step by step, stirring up public opinion, setting up people, and finally co-branding with merchants, Chen Jiaxin felt as if something had collapsed and directly pressed on them.

But before she could catch her breath, their boss suddenly started calling for security not far away.

Chen Jiaxin turned her head to look, and saw a large group of reporters and photographers pushing the door and rushing in, shooting wildly at the scene, shooting obliquely, 360 degrees without dead ends.

Although the hotel's security responded in a timely manner, a reporter still rushed to the front desk and pressed the shutter wildly in the first three rows where no one was there.

"How could the journalist be here? What about Yang Xueyu, what about others! ”

"Boss, I'...... I am here! ”

Zhang Tao's eyes were red: "Didn't I say it, let you send some red envelopes to the media, don't let them come here yet?" What the hell is going on? ”

Yang Xueyu shook his head while panting: "The red envelope has been distributed, and the people in the media have agreed, but these reporters are not invited by us." ”

At this moment, a female reporter in a windbreaker suddenly rushed over with a microphone: "Mr. Zhang, it was said on the Internet that Dianping's funds are about to be broken, is this true?" ”

Without waiting for Zhang Tao to open his mouth, another reporter rushed over: "Mr. Zhang, half of the merchants at the signing conference did not come, is there indeed a problem with Volkswagen's funds?" ”

"Mr. Zhang, it is rumored on the Internet that Xitian can't get the payment from Dianping and is going to terminate the contract with Dianping, is this true?"

"Mr. Zhang......"

"Mr. Zhang, please answer the question."

"Mr. Zhang, Dianping refused to respond to the refund question, and also chartered two luxury halls to indulge in lust, do you really take consumers to heart?"

Zhang Tao felt that he was already ringing in his ears, and the buzzing sound kept surrounding his ears, and he could only hear those media reporters constantly shouting Mr. Zhang.

And Chen Jiaxin next to him was also surrounded by reporters, facing the same problem, with his mouth open but he didn't know how to deal with it.

Why are there rumors on the Internet that Dianping's funds are disconnected? It's a group.

Because Yang Xueyu had just said it, Jiang Qin admitted that he had also prepared a group of experts to spread rumors that their funds were disconnected.

But Dianping is actually not afraid, because simple rumors alone are unlikely to cause too sensational effects.

Why is the rumor-mongering group successful? It's not because the fire of the early Tuanbao network is very strong.

But once the photos of the venue leak out, some things are not so simple, because their venue is really half empty, and it is still the first three rows.

Volkswagen originally wanted to gather all the big brands, pretend to sign a contract or something, and guide the remaining small and medium-sized merchants to the public on the one hand, but if these photos leak out, then the problem with Dianping can be regarded as a real thing.

When merchants find out that the big brands are gone, even if you can prove that you have enough money, how dare they believe you?

Who knows what major hidden dangers your company has, otherwise why the big brands have run away.

This situation was completely unexpected......

At the same time, in the banquet hall next door, when the seminar was about to start, Jiang Qin was already seated, sometimes fiddling with his mobile phone, sometimes looking up in a daze, and there was no other emotion on his face.

"Mr. Jiang is awesome, the public comments are going to pretend to be close to his face, he can still be so calm."

"Yes, the consumer's problem is solved, how do they solve the merchant's trust problem? As soon as the signing meeting next door is held, it is estimated that more merchants will leave the group and go to Dianping. ”

"Time is too urgent, it is very rare for Mr. Jiang to forcibly pull public opinion to such a point, and with the goodwill of consumers, he will definitely attract attention next time he starts a business."

Everyone was chattering, and they had already begun to arrange for Jiang Qin to start a business next time, and the time in the venue was moving forward little by little.

Soon, the time came to five o'clock in the evening, and it was already the start time of the seminar.

But what is strange is that there are two positions in front of it that have always been empty, one belongs to Zhang Tao and the other belongs to Chen Jiaxin.

"Two minutes left, what about the people in Dianping?"

"I was still there just now, I answered the phone and went out."

"It's time, so I'm not going to be late."
