Taoyuan Soldier King
Chapter 216: A double-edged sword
The motorcade drove off the highway intersection and entered Taoyuan County. Wan Qiang felt a lot in his heart. He didn't expect that he would return to this dilapidated small county.
Wan Qiang himself was not a native of Taoyuan County, he had escaped, and then Taoyuan County, a state-level impoverished county, became his springboard, the land of Longxing.
It was a bit cloudy today, and Liu Meijia had taken people to the highway intersection and waited two hours in advance.
"Mr. Liu, here comes!" Wang Chengwei whispered.
Wang Chengwei is also very impressed with Wan Qiang, the big boss, but he thinks he is Liu Meijia's person from beginning to end.
"Well, I saw it!" Liu Meijia was wearing brown sunglasses, standing in the wind, looking at the coming Beijing caravan.
In the car, the driver of Wan Qiang asked, "Boss, Liu Meijia will lead someone to greet him. Should we stop and say hello?"
"No, go directly to the county seat." Wan Qiang closed his eyes and said calmly.
"Yes!"
After the driver speeded up and drove away in the direction of Taoyuan County, he did not stop at all to pay attention to the people waiting to be greeted.
Liu Meijia's face was a little ugly. She took someone here and waited for two hours. Wan Qiang could not have known it. This was a slap in the face in public!
"Mr. Liu?" Wang Chengwei's face was also ugly, and it was up to the owner to beat the dog. He was Liu Meijia's subordinate. Wan Qiang didn't give Liu Meijia face, and he also beat them in the face.
Liu Meijia's face was solemn, listening to Wang Chengwei's voice, she recovered her brows, and said coldly, "It's okay, everyone is looking for money, so let's do our best."
After speaking, walked to the car: "Back to Xiantao Villa!"
Wan Qiang’s dissatisfaction with Liu Meijia was caused by many factors. First, the dispute with Yutou Village believed that Liu Meijia was incompetent. Later, Liu Meijia opened a small stove on Taoyuan jade. The last time he used machinery to mine Taoyuan jade seed material, he was enforced. The team's personnel caught more than five million fines both inside and outside. In short, Wan Qiang has been very slow in dealing with Liu Meijia in a series of things recently.
The hustle and bustle in the world is profit, Wan Qiang and Liu Meijia are closely linked because of money, and the break will undoubtedly be because of money.
Wan Qiang believes that he is the'overlord' of Taoyuan County, and Liu Meijia's men are nothing but a mob.
"Cheng Wei!"
When approaching the county seat, Liu Meijia, who was closing her eyes, suddenly opened her eyes and called to Wang Chengwei who was sitting in the co-pilot.
Wang Chengwei turned his head. The driver was also a close friend of Liu Meijia, so there was no need to avoid saying anything.
"You contact a few traders who are proficient in financial and stock markets and open a few securities accounts. I can use them!" Liu Meijia ordered.
Without asking why, Wang Chengwei nodded and said in a low voice, "Okay, I'll get in touch soon."
Liu Meijia said blankly: "Wan Qiang came back this time not just to hype Taoyuan jade, but maybe a final retreat."
The last way out?
This sentence left Wang Chengwei for a while. Was Wan Qiang staying alive and well?
"Find someone to investigate and find out which country Wan Qiang has invested in recently, and have you found someone to apply for a fake passport certificate." Liu Meijia said.
Wang Chengwei frowned and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Liu, you mean Wan Qiang wants to run away?"
Liu Meijia calmly said: "This is the worst plan. If Qiangyuan Company is suspected of manipulating the stock price, he will definitely run away." After a pause, he said blankly: "If Wan Qiang is allowed to run away Now, maybe we will be in the dark."
From the announcement made by Wanqiang that Qiangyuan Company purchased the Taoyuan jade mine for 500 million US dollars and entered into Taoyuan jade mining, Liu Meijia knew that Wanqiang would not be able to handle it. Someone above must be investigating Qiangyuan Company, and Qiangyuan Company’s 'Thunder' cannot be ruled out.
Therefore, Wan Qiang must speculate on the stock price of Qiangyuan Group before there is no "thunderstorm", pledge the shares in his hands, in exchange for funds, and leave the country.
Of course, Liu Meijia's guess may not be accurate, but if everything follows her guess, then those who are left in China will not be able to escape.
After Wan Qiang returned to Taoyuan County, he immediately summoned many Qiangyuan companies in the old department of Taoyuan County. Outsiders didn't know what they were talking about. Everyone was very excited anyway.
'Baiganquan' mineral water company is a local mineral water company in the city. The bottled mineral water is only sold in the province, accounting for about 12 to 15%, but its market share in this city is Up to forty percent.
The main cheap mineral water, a bottle costs one dollar, a box of 36 bottles, the wholesale price is only ten dollars.
The boss's surname is Sun, and his name is Sun Lecheng. He is a tough boss who is over 40 years old and has a big name in the city.
"What's going on in Taoyuan County this month? The market share has dropped by 46%. You guys eat shit?"
Sun Lecheng summoned the manager in charge of Taoyuan County's business, and it was just a swear word.
"Boss, there is a new mineral water on the market in Taoyuan County. Now it focuses on the local market in Taoyuan County. It costs no money for distributing goods and no money for delivery. Although the price is higher than ours, the market response is good, so our market share has declined. So much." The business manager said helplessly.
'Baiganquan' mineral water is in Taoyuan County. It used to sell well. One is because the price is low, and the other is Taoyuan County’s economic difficulties. There are not many people who are willing to spend money on high-priced mineral water, and small shops are not willing to sell it. Those high-priced water pressure goods account for the money.
But now it’s different. The price of'Longshan Spring' is not high or low, but the promotion in Taoyuan County is really great. The most important thing is that people don’t need money to shop goods, and they don’t need to use money to suppress goods, as fast-moving goods. They are all cash-settled, only "Longshanquan" is not.
Secondly, some changes have taken place in the market in Taoyuan County. Locals didn’t have much money before, but since digging Taoyuan jade can make money, there have been tens of thousands of "jade diggers" on both sides of the Jinsha River. The sharp increase, in vain, is just bulging, and more people are willing to spend two dollars on a bottle of water to drink!
In the first month, the sales of'Baiganquan' mineral water dropped by half. As expected, this is because'Longshanquan' was only promoted for a few days, and it was not released for a few days. If you wait until next month, the'Baiganquan' mineral spring The decline in the market share of water will be more severe, and the performance will be even more ugly.
Unless Sun Lecheng is also willing to let'Baiganquan' distribute goods for free in Taoyuan County, and vigorously make profit to retailers, market share may rise.
However, the positioning of'Baiganquan' mineral water is that of cheap mineral water, which relies on low prices to attract customers. If the price cannot become a rigid condition for attracting customers, the continuous decline in the market share of'Baiganquan' will Become inevitable.
As a business manager, I see these things very clearly, but I can’t tell Sun Lecheng frankly, because the boss will be angry and it seems that it’s not good for me.
Sun Lecheng frowned and said: "Longshanquan? What is the origin, why haven't you heard of it before?"
"A local mineral water bottling plant in Taoyuan County has just been put into operation. It is very relevant in Taoyuan County. It became a government agency as soon as it went public. The price of designated water in Taoyuan jade market is not higher than ours. It seems that there has not been a large-scale publicity against mainstream mineral water in markets such as Wahaha and Nongfu Spring."
Sun Lecheng's eyes flickered and said: "I care about him, anyway, yours grabbed the market back for me."
After losing my temper, I felt better, and asked with a gloomy face: "Are there any countermeasures for the market in Taoyuan County?"
"If we want to compete with'Longshanquan', we are afraid that we will have to distribute the goods for free, and we are giving the profits to those retailers, so that they are willing to help us return the products." The business manager whispered.
"Free distribution?"
When Sun Lecheng heard these four words, he just ate poopy. The last thing he didn't want to hear was these four words. Free distribution is good, but it also has greater disadvantages to a factory, especially after it has grown. , It is easy to cause a break in the capital chain, so there are really few companies in the market that still implement the strategy of "free distribution".
Had it not been for "Longshanquan" to be a local enterprise in Taoyuan County, Shan Yao would not want to publicize it, nor would it implement such a strategy until the road was repaired.And in the future, free distribution will only be carried out locally in Taoyuan County, and the cash will still be settled outside the county.
It is not only the'Baiganquan' mineral water spring company that has felt the changes in the mineral water and purified water market in Taoyuan County. Managers and sellers of other companies have also realized the seriousness.
However, there are not many companies that are willing to go to war with Longshanquan. After all, there are not many companies that distribute goods free of charge. Because this is a pioneer, there will be no recycling in the future.
"Free shop" is a double-edged sword hanging over the head. It can kill the enemy as well as yourself. If one fails, if the opponent does not kill, he wipes himself off his neck.
'Longshanquan' didn't care, it's all because the little rich lady Shan Yao was rich and didn't care about this star at all.
With the help of Tang Long, let’s not talk about how much money was made on the Taoyuan jade seed material. The Taoyuan jade mine, which was bought for 10 million yuan, was sold for 200 million US dollars. Hundreds of times the profit, holding more than one billion in cash, at this time I don't know where to spend.
For the'Longshanquan' mineral water company, at the beginning, Zhang Xiu'e, Tang Long, and even Shan Yao himself did not pay much attention to it. It was just a bottle of water. How much money could it make?
In fact, they don’t understand the domestic fast-moving consumer market. Consumables like'mineral water' are also one of the necessities in people’s daily life. It is simply a huge profit, but this market is not so easy to enter. The production of mineral water, Setting up a factory is not the most difficult. The difficulty is getting consumers to recognize, recognize your brand, and recognize your water quality.
Of course, the most important premise is the brand.
And now, "Longshan Spring" has a certain degree of local popularity in Taoyuan County, let alone nationwide, even if it is out of Taoyuan County, few people know it.
