Chapter 629 **Changing Situation(1/2)
Another week has passed, and Tiger Wolf Beer has naturally opened up a sales market in Nancheng.
Tiger Wolf Beer suddenly emerged, overwhelming the three traditional brands of Dexingdao, Guanjing and Habin, with almost no place to stay.
In the provincial capital, in fact, the most mainstream beer brands are not Xingdao, Guanjing or Habin.
These three wine tastings are just traditional brands that have been controlled by Ke Youliang and his Qingzhu Gang, and their sales are also very large.
However, even when there was no competition from Tiger Wolf Beer, these three traditional brands were only suitable for mid-to-high-end beer drinkers.
In the provincial capital, there is another authentic cheap beer brand, Shanshui Beer.
Shanshui Beer claims to be produced by the same manufacturer as Hexingdao Beer, but the taste is indeed very different.
Although Shanshui Beer is not delicious, due to its low price, Shanshui Beer is only half the price of Guanjing Beer, so it has a place in the low-end drinking market in provincial capitals.
It is far ahead in the ranks of low-end beers, and the intervention of Ye Shaofeng and Tiger Wolf Beer not only caused Ke Youliang and his three major beers, Xingdao, Guanjing and Habin, to suffer heavy losses, but also brought Shanshui Beer a A devastating blow.
Because Tiger Wolf Beer also has low-end brands, the taste is also very good, and the market promotion is relatively fierce. The arrival of Tiger Wolf Beer has squeezed Shanshui Beer out of the ordinary.
In the provincial capital, there is only one general agent for Shanshui beer. This person is also quite famous in the provincial capital. His name is Liang Guangcai. Over the years, he has made a lot of money by acting as an agent for this Shanshui brand of beer. It can be said that It can be regarded as starting from scratch.
In the 1970s and 1980s of the Republic, it was all about who dared to be the first to eat the crabs. If you caught up with the opportunity and seized the opportunity, if you were lucky, you could make a fortune.
This Liang Guangcai took the risk to represent Xingdao Beer, which had immature technology and market prospects in the late 1980s.
First, he started as an agent for Xingdao Beer and invested all his money into a game. Unexpectedly, he achieved unprecedented success in this game.
In the late 1980s, Xingdao beer, represented by Liang Guangcai, suddenly became an indispensable drink on the drinking tables of people in the provincial capital. Xingdao beer's excellent taste and reputation firmly tied the hearts of the drinkers in the provincial capital. .
Later, as Xingdao Beer developed and expanded, it began to advertise vigorously on TV stations, radio stations, and the Internet. Xingdao Beer became a nationally renowned brand, and Liang Guangcai became the largest agent of Xingdao Beer in the provincial capital.
After he made money, he did a stupid thing, that is, he gave up the beer business and started to engage in real estate. However, because he was tricked in real estate, he almost went bankrupt. This kid withdrew his investment in time and wanted to continue the beer business.
But at this time, that Ke Youliang had already taken advantage of the situation and not only obtained the general agency rights for Xingdao Beer in the provincial capital, but also obtained the agency rights for the two traditional brands Guanjing and Habin.
Liang Guangcai is a smart man. He knows that Ke Youliang has a gangster background, so he cannot rob him. Since his Qingzhu Gang has taken away the agency rights for the three major beer brands, he has completely dominated the mid-to-high-end market, while the low-end market has not yet been If it is run by a single person, it can be an agent for low-end brands of beer to fill this market gap.
Liang Guangcai's strategy was very successful. Not only did he make a comeback, but he also did not offend Ke Youliang. He made a lot of money and made money every day.
Although he has made a lot of money, he is not yet a conscientious businessman. Businessmen who started from scratch and developed in the 1970s and 1980s are generally unlikely to have a clean slate. They must have known a lot of people in the world of martial arts. People, and Liang Guangcai’s main focus is on politics.
When you develop in such a chaotic city as the provincial capital, you cannot compete with others without some hard measures.
But Liang Guangcai also knew a certain person, but it was not Ke Youliang.
He and Ke Youliang had always been on the same page. They could only be said to know each other, but they could not be said to know each other.
Although the eldest brother Liang Guangcai knew was not quite as powerful as Ke Youliang, he was still a well-known figure in the provincial capital.
This ** brother's name is Zhang Yue. He had already become famous in the provincial capital in the late 1980s. He was imprisoned twice in 1991 and 2002 for fighting in crowds and maliciously wounding others. One was sentenced to five years, and the other was sentenced to three years.
In the past twenty years, this kid has escaped in prison for eight years. After eight years in prison, after he came out, he was still prosperous and had so many younger brothers who followed him wholeheartedly. Said, this person is absolutely extraordinary.
It's hard to imagine that if he hadn't spent eight years in prison, his current strength would have been able to compete with Qingzhu Gang's Keyou, or even worse.
Zhang Yue and Liang Guangcai have been good brothers since childhood. When Liang Guangcai was a beer agent, Zhang Yue also contributed a lot. It can be said that without Zhang Yue supporting Liang Guangcai from behind, Liang Guangcai's beer sales would not have been so good.
Later, Liang Guangcai became rich, and of course the benefits of his brothers were indispensable. The two brothers, one in black and one in business, worked together seamlessly.
For a long time, they have been able to establish a foothold in the provincial capital, and their financial and political strength are immeasurable.
At this moment, Liang Guangcai was in the office, targeting Ye Shaofeng.
A man who was only 27 or 28 years old actually promoted a very unpopular beer brand to the whole city in three weeks.
Moreover, now the dealers are no longer stocking the Shanshui brand beer they represent, which makes Liang Guangcai puzzled.
Liang Guangcai found his brother Zhang Yue and prepared to find out the background of Ye Shaofeng...
As I have said before, Liang Guangcai and Ke Youliang have always been in harmony with each other. One is a low-end beer agent, and the other is the gangster of the Qingzhu Gang.
The identities and jobs of the two people seem to be completely unrelated, but many times, it depends on fate. Sometimes, two people meet together, maybe just because of a small thing.
Because Ye Shaofeng's Tiger Wolf Beer opened up the provincial capital market in a short period of time, Ye Shaofeng became a prominent figure in the provincial capital's business community almost overnight. Many large companies began to extend an olive branch to him, hoping that he could be their own man. The company's sales consultant.
Most companies are eager for sales talents like Ye Shaofeng, but there are also people who don't like him. Among them, there are only two people who hate Ye Shaofeng. One is Brother Liang of the Qingzhu Gang, Ke Youliang, because Ye Shaofeng robbed him. Your own way of making money will cause you to suffer losses.
Another person who hates Ye Shaofeng deeply, even more than Ke Youliang, is naturally the supplier of Shanshui beer brand in the provincial capital, Liang Guangcai.
Ye Shaofeng only cut off one of Ke Youliang's financial opportunities, but Liang Guangcai's entire job was cut off by Ye Shaofeng.
Before Ye Shaofeng did not represent Tiger Wolf Beer, the entire provincial capital was dominated by Hexingdao, Guanjing, Habin and Shanshui. These four brands of beer accounted for 90% of the market share.
Relying on the income from pouring beer, Liang Guangcai made a fortune, drove a Mercedes-Benz, and played girls. A young man with little education who once came out of the countryside, with the passage of time and the rapid development of his career, he has now become one of the most popular celebrities in the provincial capital. Not many multi-millionaires.
But now, Tiger Wolf Beer, represented by Ye Shaofeng, has occupied almost the entire liquor market in the provincial capital in just three weeks, which is equivalent to pushing Liang Guangcai's "Caiyuan Guangjin" group to a dead end.
Shanshui Beer brand beer cannot be sold in the provincial capital, so Liang Guangcai's company will go bankrupt and he himself will be bankrupt.
Liang Guangcai found his good brother, and Zhang Yue went to find out the details of Ye Shaofeng.
At the same time, Ke Youliang also asked his right-hand man Huang Long to form a party for personal gain, to attract more people and gangs to become enemies of Longtang.
Zhang Yue and Huang Long are both powerful figures in the provincial capital. There are few people in the provincial capital who don't know their names. They are both gangsters, so they have some grievances. The relationship of hatred.
I don't know where the news came from, letting Huanglong know that Zhang Yue was also checking Ye Shaofeng, and then immediately contacted Zhang Yue. Anyway, the goals were the same, so it was better for the two of them to cooperate.
One night at the bar, Huang Long and Zhang Yue met here.
"Brother Zhang, I haven't seen you for a while. I heard that the business of one of your good brothers, Liang Guangcai, was ruined. Now the beer can't be sold, and it will be in his own hands," Huang Long said. In terms of seniority and strength, Zhang Yueyuan is here Above Huang Long, but since Huang Long was Ke Youliang's most valued assistant, Huang Long did not dare to be negligent.
In the bar, the lights are dim and there are not many people. It is not as chaotic and noisy as the disco. It is a good place for chatting.
"Who says it's not the case? My brother used to be a beer supplier in Shanshui, our provincial capital. Now he's good. Cheng Yaojin shows up halfway. Who the hell is this Ye Shaofeng? He's so awesome. He's just a master. In a matter of months, I robbed all my brother's business. My brother's regular customers now don't have the money to buy our beer. Give him all the money. Damn, he signed a contract with Tiger Wolf Beer. Look, This chicken bar only sells Tiger Wolf beer and nothing else, it’s really annoying,” Zhang Yue said.
"Brother, originally our boss, Brother Liang, was going to be the agent of Hulang Beer. Who knew that Ye Shaofeng would be cut off from making money? You know, in Nancheng, the provincial capital, that is where our brother Liang has the final say. Originally, the owner of Hulang Beer was At first, we were looking for our brother Liang, but now this guy has stopped the business.
Not only that, now that Tiger Wolf Beer is suppressing us, our three major traditional brands of beer are also selling very poorly.
Our Brother Liang is also angry, no, right now, he is asking me to find more people to make him an enemy of Longtang, and then combine everyone’s strength to annihilate him in one fell swoop,” Huang Long said.
"It seems like this guy has some background. Otherwise, how could he sell such a strange brand like Tiger Wolf Beer so well? I guess there is someone above him," Zhang Yue said wily.
After all, this old gangster who is nearly forty years old has been in the world for too many years and has never seen anything. After analyzing such a simple thing, he knows that Ye Shaofeng is definitely extraordinary.
"I do know a little bit about him. I heard that he is very close to Liu Changkui, the son of the deputy mayor.
Moreover, this boy's Longtang is very powerful in Luyang City, and you are also a member of the Taoist community. You don't know that they wiped out the Tiancheng Gang overnight.
Although the Tiancheng Gang is not a great club, the fact that it was wiped out overnight does show that this Dragon Hall is quite capable.
So, I think we should unite," Huang Long said without saying a word.
"Look, let me just say that this kid has some connections. If he can have a good relationship with the deputy mayor's son, he must have a good background. It seems that if we want to deal with him, we must join forces. How about our two families join forces? Get up and explore the details of this Dragon Hall," Zhang Yuezheng said.
At this time, several young people wandered over, and the leader among them was Guo Fangjun.
"Two of you, if I guess correctly, you are the famous Huang Long and Zhang Yue," Guo Fangjun said politely.
"Who are you? Why don't you stay cool?" Huang Long glanced at Guo Fangjun and didn't take the cucumber egg in his eyes at all.
It was a coincidence that Zhang Yue and Huang Long were also very good at choosing places. They chose a bar to drink in, and they happened to choose this bar under Longtang.
This bar is now managed by Guo Fangjun. Every night, Guo Fangjun comes to the bar from time to time when he is fine, mainly to shock the scene.
Although Guo Fangjun is still a student gangster and has no great reputation in the world, he is quite famous in this bar and in the generation of Luyang City No. 3 Middle School. The gangsters of this generation who play with him must also be respectful. Call him Junge.
Today, Guo Fangjun was staying in the bar when he heard a waiter running over and saying that the two people here were talking about Brother Feng. Guo Fangjun also came over to listen to what these two people were saying.
Upon hearing and looking, I realized that one of these two people was Zhang Yue, the oldest gangster in the provincial capital, and the other was Huang Long, Ke Youliang's right-hand man from the Qingzhu Gang.
Because of the Tiger Wolf Beer matter, Ye Shaofeng must have offended them, so the purpose of their coming here is to discuss and jointly deal with Ye Shaofeng and Longtang.
This bar is on the edge of West Street, a few steps away from the hotel where Ye Shaofeng lives.
Now, these two big brother-level figures have come to this area to discuss things. They also have another important purpose, which is to find out how powerful Longtang is in this area. Let’s see how powerful Ye Shaofeng is. How awesome is it?
"Two seniors, I just heard that you are going to join forces to deal with Ye Shaofeng, right?" Guo Fangjun's face showed a ferocious look, and his more ferocious eyes were blocked under his long head curtain. His eyes were completely full of He released a ferocious look that a young man of this age would not have.
"Damn it, are you too busy to do anything? I told you to stay cool and stay for a while. Don't ask around here," Huang Long said without curiosity. After finishing speaking, he took off his sleeves and said, He exposed the colorful tattoos on his arms, hoping to scare Guo Fangjun.
Unexpectedly, Guo Fangjun turned a blind eye to the tattoo, and was not afraid of Huang Long's vicious attitude at all. He directly moved a chair and sat next to the two of them.
After Guo Fangjun sat down, he looked at the two of them affectionately and solemnly, and said in a neither humble nor condescending manner: "Two of you, I will call you senior in front of you, but you have to know that you are now in my place, Guo Fangjun, and I am the one who occupies it. In Guo Fangjun's territory, I don't care how awesome you two are outside. If you enter our bar in Longtang and join the generation of No. 3 Middle School, it's him who is the dragon for me to coil up and the tiger to lie down for me.
If you want to get out of here intact, it's up to him to do his damn duty to me." As he said that, Guo Fangjun suddenly twitched a sharp dagger from his lower back and thrust it into the table.
With a "buzz" sound, the knife penetrated two inches, and the blade was still trembling.
Many of Guo Fangjun's younger brothers swarmed over when they saw that their elder brother was going under the knife. Many boys who were playing in the bar also gathered around when they saw that the boss-level personnel in their school were in a hurry.
Inside and outside, young men in their thirties surrounded Zhang Yue and Huang Long, the two big brothers in the world.
Huang Long put his hand into his trouser pocket, preparing to take out a knife. Zhang Yue also looked at the group of passionate young people around him cautiously. Zhang Yue knew that young people at this age are the most passionate and the least easy to mess with. They may not have much status in the world. They don’t have much social power, but they really dare to risk their lives and act regardless of the consequences...
Huang Long and Zhang Yue were in a stalemate with these hot-blooded young people for several seconds, and finally gave up. Huang Long looked at Zhang Yue, meaning to see what this gangster brother could do. Zhang Yue, an old gangster, has experienced many battles and knows that this kind of scene is tough. Can't fight.
He and Huang Long winked. Huang Long also understood. He took his hands out of his trouser pockets, suddenly showed a smile, looked at Guo Fangjun and said: "Little brother, why are you so violent? We are all just playing on the road. We will never look down when we look up." See, don’t make the relationship really tense, right?”
Guo Fangjun also smiled and said: "Two eldest brothers, you are my seniors, but what I want to say is that from now on, the provincial capital will be our world. If you want to check our background, I can let you Look it up as you like, but remember, the world is always changing, and no one is always the boss, whether it is Nancheng Ke Youliang or your brother Zhang Yue, who came out to fool around, sooner or later he will have to pay back."
"Brother, you really sound like a gangster when you talk. It seems that you have been around for a long time. I know that you are young, energetic and full of passion, but I also want to give you a piece of advice. The road to the gangland is not as easy as you think.
Our generation has worked hard with our lives. I think you have a lot of potential. How about you follow me? If you call me brother, you will be my Zhang Yue. From now on, we will be brothers. How about you, young man? ," Zhang Yue said openly.
To be continued...
