Chapter 339 The price of super fish oil will inevitably rise
Arrangements began overnight, and some reporters have been notified that they must set off for the Tianchao to participate in Xu Pingan’s press conference tomorrow. They must obtain first-hand information. The reporters are all shrewd and they already know what is going on. All of them started to turn on their computers to directly book air tickets to Heaven.
The next day, the global media began to report on Super Fish Oil on a large scale. All Poseidon factories received an order from the headquarters to stop production. This news shocked everyone. The price of Super Fish Oil in major retail stores increased by 100%. hundred.
Many media have already announced and received notices that Xu Ping An will hold a press conference in three days to announce the reasons. What is the reason is not yet known. We can only wait for Xu Ping's explanation.
As soon as Xu Pingan arrived at the headquarters, Chen Qingshan and Wei Dongshuo rushed there and asked them to sit down and drink tea. Chen Qingshan began to ask, "Peace, there is time for tea. Tell me now why Poseidon completely ceased production."
"Plastic particles" Xu Ping'an said, Wei Dongshuo and Chen Qingshan were both stunned. What is the relationship between your fish oil production and the plastic particles.
"After internal inspections, the fish in the oceans of the world have been contaminated, and plastic particles have been detected from their bodies. We have refined them to make fish oil. Plastic particles have also been found in the fish oil."
"Plastic particles are also found in NX01, the main raw material of super fish oil. Although there are currently no standards for plastic particles in all countries in the world, we can't ignore it. We must purchase new equipment and increase processes and manpower to solve this problem."
"We don't know if plastic particles are harmful to humans, and the scientific community has not given a clear conclusion, just in case, in order to avoid future troubles, we must make changes now."
"Therefore, I ordered all factories to be stopped and all aspects of the process improved. After the improvements are completed, let's resume production," Xu Ping An said calmly, looking at the two.
Wei Dongshuo and Chen Qingshan were completely shocked. The fish purchased by Poseidon are all over the world, and they are basically deep-sea fish. This type of fish has a high oil content, and unexpectedly the whole army was wiped out.
"By the way, after the resumption of production, the price of super fish oil will inevitably increase. This time the purchase of new equipment requires at least 500 million euros. There is also an increase in labor, and the cost has risen, so the price must be increased." Xu Pingan added .
"Ping'an, the price of super fish oil is still beyond the reach of most people. Have you considered this?" Chen Qingshan said, looking at Xu Ping'an's face.
"What if I don’t increase the price? Originally, it took 200 catties of fish to refine a barrel of fish oil, but now it costs 320 catties. Adding other costs, the cost has risen by at least 40%. I spend so much. Who will make up for my loss?" Xu Ping'an looked at Chen Qingshan without giving way. There is no way to increase prices.
Wei Dongshuo was also stunned by the fact that so many costs were increased. Chen Qingshan had nothing to say. The two of them drank two cups of tea and frowned and left. Not long after, Kyle came to Xu Pingan’s office. not good too.
Xu Ping'an greeted Kyle for tea, and two cups of tea went underneath him. "Boss, I have received calls from more than a dozen countries so far, asking me what’s going on, and the same answer" Kyle said helplessly.
"What are their reactions?" Xu Ping'an asked.
"There is nothing to say, this is a global problem. They know more than us. However, this time I was also taken aback by my news. The global fishery was polluted by plastic particles, which exceeded their expectations." Er directly said.
"There is no way. Look at reports from various countries. Plastic particles have been found in human feces a few years ago. Plastic products are full of all aspects of life. Since last year, L'Oréal in Country F has begun to adjust product formulas to eliminate plastic particles. "
"These international giants have a very keen sense of smell, and they started to do it early. When the plastic particles attracted people's attention and the governments of various countries began to introduce relevant policies, the products of the giants did not have anything to do because the giants had already started to change in advance."
"It is the small and medium-sized companies that suffer. There are only two ways left for them. One is to borrow huge funds to purchase equipment and change the process and formula. Second, the product is abandoned by the market and goes bankrupt. There is no third way to go. "Xu Ping'an also sighed after speaking.
"Yes, adding equipment is not something that all companies can afford. A piece of equipment is tens of millions of euros, plus labor and other costs, the average company really can't afford it."
"I believe that when the boss is holding a press conference, plastic particles should attract global attention. The price of seafood will inevitably go down all the way, which will affect the livelihood of many people." Kyle also sighed with emotion.
"We have no way. If we don't change, once the reporters turn it out, we will definitely be sober to attack by the time. Just fines can bankrupt us." Xu Ping'an sighed and said, the reality is like this. Helpless.
Time slowly passed, and the international market had begun to respond. The shares of seafood companies began to fall. Although the decline was not large, it could be an obvious signal. Needless to say, the news inevitably spread.
Even if a small number of people know it, it will definitely cause a reaction. The J City meeting strengthened the deployment of police forces. The reason is that the media from all over the world sent personnel over to participate in the press conference held by Xu Pingan.
At present, there are thousands of people in statistics, and there are more than 500 foreign personnel. These people are journalists, not ordinary people. Sanitation rectification, public order rectification, and so on are beginning to unfold. This knotty point, even a little thing may be unlimited. enlarge.
On this day, reporters began to gather in the auditorium of the city. The auditorium had been rented by Tianqi Group for a day. There were too many people coming. The news hall of Tianqi headquarters could not accommodate so many people and could only be moved to the auditorium.
The reporters have begun to debug various equipment below. Many domestic media are broadcasting live, and they have already started to arrange the equipment in advance. Today, the last debugging is carried out and they are all busy. Xu Ping An and Kyle are talking later.
Darina gave Xu Ping'an a signal. Xu Ping'an nodded and looked at Kyle. The two stood up and began to walk from the back to the front desk. Without doing so many forms, Xu Ping'an strode to the front desk. Kyle followed.
Seeing Xu Ping’an coming out, the reporters started to get serious. Taking pictures, taking pictures, video recordings, and live broadcasts, the cameras were all aimed at Xu Ping’an, who walked to the podium. Xu Ping’an pressed down with both hands and the sound Quickly lowered and quieted down.
"Thank you all the media for your hard work." After Xu Ping'an finished speaking, he bowed to the reporters when he was wrong. The reporters applauded, knowing that Tianqi Group pays much attention to etiquette.
Xu Ping'an propped up his body and returned to the speech platform. He pressed his hands down again, and the scene instantly calmed down. He glanced calmly at the reporter below.
"Everyone, please come over today and have something to do with Super Fish Oil. Everyone has got the news that Poseidon’s factories around the world have stopped work. Everyone has questions. Now I’ll reveal the answer."
"Plastic particles, we had to close all factories because of plastic particles," Xu Ping said with a solemn expression. All reporters were surprised that it turned out to be plastic particles.
Domestic reporters may not be very familiar with it, but those from abroad are very aware of this matter, and foreign media have often reported on this matter.
"Poseidon purchases fish in the oceans around the world. Recently, our self-inspection found that plastic particles were found on fish in all regions. Instead, these plastic particles can enter the refined fish oil."
"We don’t know what impact plastic particles will have on the human body, but after all, it’s not a good thing. We are a responsible company and must provide harmless products to consumers, even if there are no clear laws and regulations on plastic particles. , We must do it too"
"We have already spent 800 million euros to order equipment, and we will add a cleaning process to each of our refineries and super fish oil production lines to minimize the presence of plastic particles."
"Until we pass our internal inspections, the production of Super Fish Oil will not start, and we apologize for the changes brought to consumers."
"Marine pollution is a global problem. I once again call on all countries in the world to take action to protect our earth. We have only one earth and we only have one ocean."
"When ocean pollution becomes a dead place, what should we humans do? According to scientists' analysis of several mass extinctions on the earth in the past, when marine life begins to decrease and become extinct, terrestrial organisms cannot escape the end of extinction."
"To be honest, I have struggled with the decision to stop production. If we don't stop production, I still make money without worry, because our products comply with the laws and regulations of every country."
"I started to search for information on the Internet and found that the matter of plastic particles has been paid attention to by scientists many years ago. Scientists have published many articles, calling on countries around the world to protect the ocean."
"Although there is no report on the harm of plastic particles to the human body yet, we can't assume that we don't know this. Here I want to thank L'Oréal for setting a good example."
"Beginning last year, L'Oréal's products have begun to adjust the formula and process to completely eliminate plastic particles. I didn't know about this before, but now I know. L'Oréal, like our Tianqi Group, is a company responsible for consumers. company of"
"I won't say any extra nonsense. You are all supernatural people, and you will definitely find out more information. I hope you can call on all mankind to protect the earth and the ocean." Xu Ping'an said here, a mistake. Bow again deeply to the reporters.
"Papa Papa" applause of the reporters rang out, and they have truly felt the sincerity of Xu Ping'an. Xu Ping'an is sincerely calling on everyone to protect the earth and the ocean.
Xu Ping’an straightened up and returned to the speaking platform. He pressed his hands down and slowly calmed down according to the scene. “Again, I’m going to announce a bad news. This time it will take at least one month to rebuild the equipment. The price will inevitably rise, and I hope that consumers will forgive me.”
"We have no choice. We need to spend nearly one billion euros to purchase equipment and install. Adding a process requires an increase in personnel costs. The cost of extracting fish oil from fish has also risen sharply. After our rough test, our cost will increase by 100%. 40-50"
"I know that price increases will affect many people. There is no way. I must be responsible for Poseidon's employees around the world. They cannot be unemployed. For this, I can only express regret once again."
"I will allocate funds for the second-generation product research and development, hoping to find a way to cut costs. For the time being, we can only regret it." Xu Ping'an announced the news with regret.
