Chu Chen looked at Xia Bei, shook his head and said, "There is always a road ahead, and the words "there is no way out" are too pessimistic."
"Brother Chen, you still don't understand Beichen's current situation."
Xia Bei smiled bitterly, "We have really tried all the methods, but just based on Master Qian's banning order, there are almost no merchants in the city who dare to cooperate with us."
"Have you asked all the pharmacies in the city?"
Chu Chen casually picked up one of the documents, which recorded the contact numbers and addresses of various pharmacies in Chancheng.
"We are talking one by one, but for the time being, there is no good news."
Xia Yanhuan's eyes fell on Chu Chen, "What do you think?"
Song Yan's eyes also looked at Chu Chen with some expectation.
Chu Chen originally took over the channels for Jiucheng Pharmaceutical, which shows that Chu Chen is not completely unconcerned about Beichen's affairs.
Song Yan subconsciously believed that Chu Chen might still be able to save the situation.
"Are all the pharmacies you listed available?"
After Chu Chen glanced at it, he frowned.
"Almost all here."
Xia Bei said, "Even some small pharmacies with an area of less than 20 square meters are recorded."
"wrong."
Chu Chen shook his head, "I remember the largest chain pharmacy in Chancheng is Lingbaotang."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Bei and others looked at Chu Chen with incredible eyes.
"You don't want to discuss cooperation with Lingbaotang, right?"
Song Yan asked cautiously.
Chu Chen nodded, "I believe they are also very interested in our cooperation."
Xia Bei's face was bitter, "Brother Chen, you really know too little about Beichen's pharmaceutical industry. Do you know the relationship between Lingbaotang and Qian's family?
Lingbaotang is the largest chain drugstore in Chancheng, with locations all over the country. It is conservatively estimated that there are more than a hundred Lingbaotang branches in Chancheng."
"That's not right. As long as we win the Lingbao Hall, it is equivalent to winning this victory."
Chu Chen said, "Moreover, if our products appear in Lingbaotang, the advertising effect can be imagined. Once it becomes popular, other pharmacies want to buy from us, and it will all depend on our eyes."
The three of them looked at each other.
"Dreams are beautiful, but reality is cruel."
Xia Bei said helplessly, "Lingbaotang is Qian's pharmaceutical distributor, and the entire Lingbaotang is Qian's medicine. It can be said that Lingbaotang is a pair of tentacles for Qian's medicine to be launched on the market, and vice versa.
, more than 70% of Lingbaotang's medicines come from Qian's family, and the two are both complementary. Other pharmacies in Chancheng may cooperate with us, but Lingbaotang is absolutely impossible."
"I heard that many children of the Qian family are interning at Lingbao Hall."
Xia Yanhuan said, "The Qian family and Lingbaotang are as close as one family."
Song Yan looked at Chu Chen.
She had a feeling that Chu Chen still had something to say. Based on his experience during this period, Chu Chen would not make random mistakes.
After listening to the two people's analysis, Chu Chen's smile became even brighter, "I really didn't know that the relationship between Lingbaotang and the Qian family was so close, wouldn't it be better?
Our goal is not just for me to win a bet, but for Beichen Pharmaceutical to enter the Chancheng market, gain a firm foothold, and let everyone see how our Young Master Xia San ruthlessly
Kick open the door of Chancheng’s pharmaceutical industry.”
Xia Bei's breathing couldn't help but become rapid for a moment.
He subconsciously imagined that scene... If this miracle really happened, then he would make everyone look up to him.
Chu Chen drew a huge cake for him.
Xia Bei clenched his fists subconsciously, feeling the urge to contact Lingbaotang.
Xia Yanhuan glanced at Xia Bei and shook his head gently, "The contact information of Lingbaotang is not difficult to find. You can find it online. However, what is certain is that when the other party heard that it was Beichen who came to them, I am afraid that the first
The reaction was not rejection, but surprise, great surprise, and then rejection..." Chu Chen looked at Xia Bei, took out his mobile phone and searched for a while, wrote a phone number on the paper, and handed it to Xia Bei.
, with a smile on his face, "Mr. Xia, do you dare to make this call?"
Xia Bei stared at the phone number on the paper.
Half a meeting.
Xia Bei nodded with firm eyes and gritted his teeth, "It's just a phone call. At worst, I'll be ridiculed. Maybe there's a chance!"
Xia Yanhuan couldn't help but look at Chu Chen.
He guessed in his heart that Chu Chen's purpose was not to really seek cooperation with Lingbaotang, but to hone Xia Bei's ability to withstand pressure.
Xia Bei picked up the phone and entered the phone number.
Taking a deep breath, Xia Bei pressed the dial button.
After the phone rang three times, it was connected.
"Hello."
A calm middle-aged male voice came from the other end of the phone.
Xia Bei was confused.
The customer service number of Lingbaotang is not a lady?
After a while, the middle-aged man's voice on the other end of the phone rang again, "Who is this?"
"Hello."
Xia Bei came back to his senses and spoke quickly, his eyes a little panicked, and he inadvertently looked at Chu Chen. Chu Chen looked calm and calm at the moment, nodded gently towards Xia Bei, and then gave a thumbs up.
Xia Bei felt as if a force was pouring into his chest, filling his whole body instantly.
Isn’t it just a customer service number! And she’s not a young lady.
Just a customer service guy.
I am Mr. Xia.
What are you afraid of? Xia Bei's voice became calmer, "My name is Xia Bei, the general manager of Beichen Pharmaceutical."
"It turns out to be Mr. Xia, I've heard your name."
The middle-aged man's voice rang in Xia Bei's ears, making Xia Bei feel as gentle as jade, "Is something okay, Mr. Xia?"
Xia Bei couldn't believe his ears.
The customer service guy at Lingbaotang is also very nice to talk to.
Seeing that Xia Bei seemed to be distracted again, Chu Chen tapped his fingers on the table twice.
Xia Bei immediately spoke and said cautiously, "I would like to contact the project leader of your company and have a meal together."
"For today...please tell me the time and address."
The customer service uncle answered.
Xia Bei's eyes widened, today?
It's already past eight o'clock in the evening.
The customer service guy at Lingbaotang is probably too dedicated.
"Then...how about nine-thirty, Hua Teng Hotel?"
Xia Bei asked.
"No problem, see you at half past nine."
The middle-aged uncle hung up the phone.
Xia Bei was completely confused.
"Lingbaotang, agree to meet."
Xia Yanhuan's expression also revealed a look of disbelief.
"It's impossible for Lingbaotang not to know about Qian's banning order. How could they agree to meet with us so easily?"
Xia Yanhuan was also puzzled.
Song Yan also looked confused, and she glanced at Chu Chen subconsciously.
I always feel like I have something to do with this guy.
Xia Bei suddenly thought of a possibility, his face suddenly changed a bit, and he said in a low voice, "Do you think it is possible that Lingbaotang deliberately wanted to find this opportunity to humiliate us and make Beichen originally
It makes a difficult situation even worse.”
Hearing this, Xia Yanhuan's expression couldn't help but change slightly.
After considering it carefully, Xia Yanhuan shook his head gently, "Lingbaotang has branches all over Guangdong Province and has an excellent reputation. It shouldn't use such third-class means to ridicule us. What's more, now Beijing
In this situation, there is no need for Lingbaotang to add insult to injury.
Maybe Lingbao Hall has other meanings. My suggestion is that even if you know that you will return empty-handed, you should go and meet the representatives of Lingbao Hall."
"Then without further ado, let's set off."
Song Yan looked up and said, "When we get to Huateng, I will be responsible for talking to the other party. If they want to make things difficult and humiliate, they won't go tit-for-tat with a woman like me."
Chu Chen glanced at Song Yan silently.
You are just...a woman in name only.
"Brother Chen, let's go together."
Xia Bei looked at Chu Chen. If Chu Chen was by his side, Xia Bei felt that he would feel a little more secure.
Xia Yanhuan also looked at Chu Chen again.
He originally thought that Chu Chen was just testing Xia Bei, but to his surprise, Lingbaotang actually agreed to meet him.
No matter what, Beichen still has a glimmer of hope.
"If there is food to eat, of course I am going to eat."
Chu Chen stood up and said, "Let's go, we have to get to Huateng first to welcome the distinguished guests of Lingbao Hall."
A group of people walked out of the company.
Deng Yingcai had already left without knowing when.
It was about half an hour's journey from Jintan Building to Hua Teng Hotel. At 9:10 pm, Chu Chen and his party had already appeared at the door of Hua Teng.
"Master Chu."
The manager of Huateng Hotel stepped out with a smile on his face and shook hands with Chu Chen enthusiastically.
This Huateng manager is a new face, but he saw with his own eyes how Chu Chen slapped Huateng's former manager Wu Deqing in the face. As soon as Chu Chen got out of the car, he became very enthusiastic.
A private room was quickly arranged for Chu Chen.
When the Huateng manager quit, Xia Bei couldn't help but sigh, looked at Chu Chen and said, "Brother Chen, you are in Chancheng now, and most people have to give you face."
"Maybe the people from Lingbaotang agreed to come to meet him to give Chu Chen face."
Xia Yan said with a smile, left the office and came to the hotel box, feeling much more relaxed and happy.
Xia Bei also laughed.
Everyone knows that with the relationship between Lingbaotang and Qian, there is zero chance that Lingbaotang will cooperate with Beichen.
A few people were chatting easily, and less than ten minutes later, the door of the box opened softly.
"Master Chu, Mr. Qiao is here."
Manager Hua Teng opened the door, his expression became more and more respectful, and his eyes were also shocked.
Mr. Chu from Beichen Pharmaceutical and Mr. Qiao from Lingbaotang met in Huateng. What did they want to talk about?
Manager Hua Teng naturally knows about the bet that has been rumored recently.
"Manager Li, my schedule tonight is confidential."
Mr. Qiao spoke.
Manager Hua Teng reacted immediately and nodded hastily, "I understand, please don't worry, Mr. Qiao."
At this time, Xia Bei was stunned, his eyes widened, and he stood up subconsciously...Isn't this...the voice of the customer service uncle?
