.After listening to the explanation, I already had an idea in my mind.

In fact, from the beginning, he had no idea. He had to drive Coca-Cola out of the mainland Chinese market, drag the domestic carbonated beverage industry into his pocket, and become his own private property.

After all, Coca-Cola is an old beverage company and has a history of marketing for hundreds of years around the world. This is an invisible wealth. After all, in the Western world, there are still a large number of people who are willing to choose Coca-Cola and regard beverages from mainland China as a disaster, just as if they viewed communism decades ago.

The rise of national enterprises cannot be achieved by shouting a few slogans. It requires long-term practice and progress. Now it seems that Coca-Cola is desperate, but in fact it is not necessarily a good thing. At least it will arouse the vigilance of anti-China forces around the world, and thus cause Fan Investment Group's investment worldwide to be negatively affected, which has greatly affected its global integrated business process, which is very unfavorable.

The wood is in the forest, and the wind will destroy it. This old saying is very clear, that is, the gun is shot out. No matter which company with Chinese background takes the limelight, the result will be the same, and they will suffer heavy pressure and unfair treatment from various aspects. Fan Yuanbing is very clear about this in his heart.

This is also an important reason why Fan Wubing's company has a considerable number of foreign employees, because the existence of these foreign employees is an important measure for Fan's Investment Group to integrate into the world economy and a powerful tool to counter the other party's persecution.

Today's business war between Fan's Coke and Coca-Cola can easily remind people of the very business war between Coke and Coca-Cola a year ago.

At this time last year, US missiles bombed the Chinese Embassy in Yugoslavia. College students in Beijing took to the streets and lit candles in front of the U.S. Embassy in China to watch the victims, and instead rushed to the multinational companies that represent the United States in their hearts. McDonald's was forced to close their doors for one day, the glass of the ibn building was hit by stones, and Microsoft's Greater China President Romike nervously sent a comfort email to employees at the company, saying that if necessary, the company could close the door and employees could go home to take refuge.

The students were very emotional. Peking University Computer Service posted a slogan at the school, boycotting American goods, except for computers.

More students went under the lights to review TOEFL at night after the parade during the day.

Anti-American sentiment is also projected very quickly on commercial purposes. Hangzhou Wahaha, which is already the largest children's dairy beverage company in the country, just launched the carbonated beverage. Not long ago, the accidental bombing incident, Zong Qinghou immediately made a rough and timely patriotic advertisement. Three American missiles roared, and the Chinese missiles transformed from Coke took off to fight. The gl sound is a powerful male treble, "Cola, Chinese people's own Cola", which is said to have played a very promotional role.

Internet observer Fang Xingdong published the book "Rise Up to Challenge Microsoft's Hegemony" this summer. He accused Microsoft of "destroying the fairness of the market" and being an invader "dressed the cloak of sacred intellectual property". The doctor from Tsinghua University said, "Just like NATO's three missiles looked at the Chinese Embassy in South China from different angles, Microsoft's actions in the middle-level women's direction also caught us off guard."

While anti-US sentiment is so high, the United States and Japan have announced the new "Japan-US Defense Cooperation Pointer" with neighboring Asian countries as their imaginary enemies. All signs indicate that Sino-US relations are once again on a tightrope.

But in this case, when many international media were already very disappointed with the Sino-US negotiations, the agreement was reached dramatically.

"Politics is always the most difficult thing to understand." Fan Wubing thought of what happened last year and couldn't help but shake his head. He knew very well that he could shout and kill Coca-Cola, or be aggressive, seize the other party's market share, or even go to court and blame others, but it was definitely not suitable to kill them all, forcing it to launch the mainland market.

All the previous events were just normal business debates, but if Coca-Cola was completely driven out of the mainland market, it would be like slapping Americans in the face in front of the whole world. Uncle Sam, who was angry and embarrassed, would definitely not accept such a shameful result. China-US relations will naturally enter an uncontrollable period of time.

The situation this year is a bit special. The U.S. Nasdaq stock market, which has been proudly all the way, suddenly turned around and fell without warning. The comprehensive index fell by 40% in just a few months, and the company's market value of 85,000 US dollars has been steaming. This value exceeds the annual income of any country in the world except the United States.

A Time Warner alone lost over $10 billion in book assets, and ten years ago, no company in the world had a market value of this amount.

Almost all well-known Internet hoarding companies suffered a heavy blow. Cisco's market value fell from $5.7 billion to $41 B, Yahoo fell from $q37↑ USD to $q700 million, and Amazon fell from $4.2 billion to $4.2 billion.

Economist Stiglitz wrote in a light tone that "the bubble burst and the economy fell into recession. The result is inevitable. A hustle and bustle 1990s built on false foundations will eventually come to an end."

With the bursting of the global Internet bubble, several Chinese companies listed in the United States were not spared. Sina's stock price fell to a low of 1 US dollar, Sohu fell to 60 cents, and NetEase was even worse. Its stock price was once only 53 cents.

The immature Chinese Internet economy has entered a trough of disillusionment early. Although in the future, this may be a necessary pain, and the buds that have just experienced a test of frost can mature, but from now on, it is really a fog.

As the upcoming term ended, Clinton, who had been president for eight years, hoped to continue to defend a certain role in international affairs rather than being marginalized by others. Therefore, after Coca-Cola asked him for help, he actively mediated.

Fan Wubing can imagine that if the Americans are forced into anger, what will happen if they are forced into anger. It will not conform to the overall view and strategy that China has always pursued, and it is also contrary to the peace policy implemented by China. Therefore, he cannot cause irreversible consequences just because of a moment of impulse, so compromise is still the last choice.

"In fact, the reason why this world has become today is caused by compromises one by one." Fan Wubing, while packing up his luggage with Shen Ying, said to his little wife, "To this day, even Americans need to compromise, let alone us who have just been exhibited."

"What does dad mean?" Shen Ying asked with some interest.

"There must be some insider trading among the senior executives, so we have to live a more affordable life. After all, we are taxpayers and they are civil servants we support. This principle can still be explained." Fan Wubing replied with a smile.

Shen Ying burst into laughter when she heard this and said, "You think you are in the United States and you are also a taxpayer. But you are just joking. Fan Wubing has some considerations in his heart, mainly because he has something to do with his father Fan Heng's cattle against the two major oil companies.

Although Fan Heng took action against the two major oil companies a while ago, there were not much progress and many obstacles. The disagreement of senior executives also led to Fan Heng's futility and gaining little. Without the full support of most Standing Committee members and members, it is obviously not realistic to shake the two largest companies in China. After all, the relationship network here is quite complex, and the personnel and relationships are as close as spider webs, and there is no clue at all.

That is, this month, PetroChina has just listed two shares in Hong Kong. It is planned to be listed on stock exchanges in Hong Kong, New York and London at the same time in half a year, and plans to enter the A-share market next year to become the largest blue-chip stock in the market.

Later, according to insider information, senior executives of Sinopec visited Hong Kong's Chinese rich three times, Li Ka-shing, chairman of Hutchison Group. The latter was moved by sincerity and immediately decided to buy two shares of Sinopec in US$100 million. The market price of Sinopec's stock caused a controversy at that time. When the company sold 16.7 billion shares and 2 shares, the price was HK$6, while when the company sold A shares, it was priced at RMB4, and A shares were twice as high as 2 shares. This kind of internal and external practices caused great controversy among shareholders.

During the listing process, the overseas strategic investors of CNPC and Sinopec were all carried out through targeted fundraising. In addition to the Li Ka-shing family in Hong Kong, the American stock god Buffett and Goldman Sachs investment, there are also the world's most important oil giants, among which ExxonMobil, Shell and BP Group became Sinopec's strategic investors together.
