Tang Zun Wine and Apple Cider were so popular in the Mainland that they used up nearly a quarter of their inventory. The factory was so frightened that they urgently purchased a batch of local apples to at least maintain the supply of Apple Cider.
In addition, I also placed an order for a batch of wines from a California winery. If I didn’t have enough wineries, I went to a nearby winery to buy them under OEM. I first supplied a batch of “Special Edition imported from the United States” to temporarily fill the gap in the market.
In any case, next year the planting area of vineyards will definitely be expanded, and orders for apple purchases will also be increased. There will also be acquisitions of wineries in Australia and South America, and a batch of cheap imported red wines will be provided one after another. Several sub-brands will also be created...
However, the sales situation in the mainland will definitely not be made public for a while. Under Li Yuan's instructions, these data have been kept strictly confidential...
…
Back in Hong Kong, Yequan Beer and Yeshan Hotpot were about to be launched. A regular press conference was also held, as well as Yao Ming's signing ceremony.
"Boss Yan, how come you fell in love with the hot pot industry? And why do you want to be listed on our Hong Kong Stock Exchange?"
Yan Qing's appearance is still very confusing. Therefore, the reporter who asked the question had some misunderstandings and treated him as politely as a foreigner.
Yan Qing chuckled: "I'm from the capital, right? Our old capital is good at this, so we want to promote Chinese food to the whole country, Hong Kong, Asia, and the world!"
"Eh?" The reporter was stunned. He thought he had met someone from China. "What about your cooperative relationship with Brother Yuan...?"
"We and Yuanzi are both old friends. He provided the start-up capital and promoted the listing."
"Then why do you foreigners like to eat hot pot?"
"Remind me again, I am Chinese! A native of Beijing! And I like to eat, why don't foreigners like it? Do foreigners look more like foreigners than me?"
This tongue twister caused a roar of laughter.
However, most reporters disagree. How big is the market for this popular hot pot? It’s just opening a few more branches in the mainland. As for overseas markets? This ghost guy must have thought too much, right?
That is to say, the current Hong Kong Stock Exchange has released a lot of water, and no matter what kind of company, it can easily be listed.
How much profit can a civilian hot pot restaurant like this, which is similar to a food stall, make? Maybe it will die if it goes public. I have already reserved a quota for a penny stock.
But then I thought again, this is Brother Yuan’s cool move, so there’s no problem.
This Hundan is really lucky, and he just happened to encounter this kind of opportunity to open up the water. Can he make a lot of money by going public and financing, and use the hard-earned money of our Hong Kong stockholders to make up for the losses of Tangzun Liquor Industry?
Bah! When I think of Tang Zun Liquor Industry, I feel a bad feeling in my chest. This bastard is so wicked. He even wants to change his taste in red wine? It’s such a disgrace that he’s gone to the ghost guy. Don’t admit that he is the son-in-law of Hong Kong in the future! We
I can't afford to lose this person!
"Boss Yan, after the listing is successful, how will your company's business develop?"
"After obtaining financing, we will carry out chain store plans. In the first phase, we are preparing to open a branch in Los Angeles, the United States. There are also four stores in Hong Kong and one in Macau. In addition, several major cities in the mainland also have chain store plans and are preparing to open 20 new stores.
Five..."
"Then should your focus be on the mainland or overseas?"
"For the time being, we are mainly focusing on the mainland. But Southeast Asia and North America are the targets for the next stage..."
"..."
After answering a few questions, the reporters turned to Zhang Xi: "Boss Zhang, why don't you hold your Yequan Beer press conference separately? Arrange it together with Yeshan Hotpot?"
Zhang Xi has been on the battlefield for a long time and is not afraid of such a scene. He smiled and said: "Because we are all good friends? Our major shareholder is Li Yuanyuanzi. He is loyal enough to bring us brothers with him.
Start a business.”
"Then do you know the interesting news about Tang Zun red wine recently?" A reporter suddenly asked, causing a burst of laughter.
Zhang Xi was a little confused and couldn't help but look at Yan Qing. They knew the situation in the mainland. In their impression, Tang Zun red wine and fruit wine sold quite well, didn't they? But regarding the situation in Hong Kong, Zhang Xi and the others really
have no idea.
"Uh...? I know Tang Zun wine. It uses Yuanzi and mountain grapes from my hometown as raw materials. Now it has been improved to the latest variety of high-quality grape seedlings. I have tasted this wine and it tastes very good and has endless aftertaste."
As friends, of course we should promote each other's business here.
"Endless aftertaste." The laughter became louder, "Boss Zhang, Brother Yuan feels the same way?"
"He brewed it all by himself? Yuanzi has been preparing for three or four years. He also invited top winemakers from the winery. He built many large wine cellars, which are filled with densely packed wines and cider."
"Oh? Do you want a vintage version of this wine?"
"Of course good wine depends on the year. The older the wine, the more fragrant it is!" Zhang Xi didn't feel anything was wrong. He told the reporters truthfully, "Yuanzi discovered that there are good wine and cider breweries around my hometown.
Because of the place, we contracted several hills and built a large vineyard and winery. In addition, the apples in our hometown Neizhou are also very famous. The mountains and rivers there are beautiful, and very high-quality apples are produced. And there is Tang Zun wine.
After the factory, Yuanzi was in the village, and the township contracted a large area of mountainous area to continue to open new vineyards."
The reporters below couldn't help but look at each other. They suddenly became excited: "Boss Zhang, according to you, Brother Yuan has a lot of investment in your hometown? And all of it has been invested in the development of vineyards?"
"yes?"
"Then if Tang Zun's red wine and fruit wine cannot be sold, he will lose everything, right?"
"Hmm..." Zhang Xi was a little confused. Why did he suddenly have a crow's mouth? But this statement is not wrong, "Well... that's it!"
The reporters laughed again.
Isn’t the headline news coming? Brother Yuan followed suit and blindly invested in the foreign wine market, resulting in losing all his money!
While laughing, Zhang Xi became even more confused: "Is there something wrong?"
"Nothing, it doesn't matter. Haha." A reporter asked, "Boss Zhang, does your Yequan beer have to be the same as Tangzun Liquor?"
"Of course it's best to be the same. We are planning to open two new branches in East China and South China..."
The laughter became continuous.
Zhang Xi looked confused. Have all Hong Kong reporters taken the wrong medicine?
After finally waiting for everything to be said, Yan Qing and Zhang Xi were ready to end it quickly. There is something wrong with Hong Kong, and people here will suddenly become crazy.
"Let me introduce you! This person's name is Yao Ming, our lifelong spokesperson for Yeshan Hotpot and Yequan Beer."
(⊙_⊙)(⊙_⊙)(⊙_⊙)……
The reporters were all stunned. Where did you find this little... Taishota? Who is he?
Facing the questions on his face, Yao Ming was not afraid of the stage and began to introduce himself: "Hello, my name is Yao Ming, from the Shanghai Youth Basketball Team. I am honored to be..."
Listening to the introduction, the reporters suddenly realized that he was a basketball player. No wonder he was so big. But... aren't there any good basketball players in the mainland? How could they find this one from a kindergarten?
He suddenly became curious: "Boss Yan, Boss Zhang, can you tell me how much the endorsement fee of Mr. Yao... is?"
Yan Qing smiled and introduced: "The specific amount is kept confidential? But this lifetime contract is worthy of Xiao Yao's talent. I can tell you a little bit. Endorsements are divided into levels. If it can reach the highest level, Xiao Yao's sports career
The total endorsement fee will not be less than US$50 million!"
"Ah!" the people below exclaimed in unison, "50 million? Pay back US dollars!"
"Boss Yan, what is the standard for the highest grade? Can you reveal a little more about it?"
"Okay! Just be selected into the NBA All-Star team."
"Ah?" The crowd suddenly became noisy, "Are you guys exaggerating this? You're not dreaming, are you? NBA All-Stars?"
"We have great confidence in Xiao Yao. NBA All-Star is just his starting point. He will definitely become the best center and one of the best superstars in the world!"
Since they want to publicize, Yan Qing and Zhang Xi will of course keep their eyes closed and talk nonsense. They don't have any confidence in their hearts, it's just what they heard from Li Yuan.
And after entering the All-Stars, the endorsement fee is 5 million US dollars in one year, let’s count it as ten years! 50 million is normal!
However, even Yao Ming thought it was a bit exaggerated. He was still young and thin-skinned, and his face turned red all of a sudden.
The reporter was reluctant and continued to ask Yao Ming: "Mr. Yao, are you confident about entering the NBA?"
Reporters no longer care about Yan Qing's nonsense. If a Chinese can enter the NBA, even if he becomes a water cooler keeper, it will be the pride of all Chinese people. As for the All-Stars? Just go to sleep! You can have everything in your dreams.
Fortunately, Yao Ming has a high emotional intelligence. He nodded bravely: "This is also the direction of my efforts. I hope to dedicate my talents to the NBA Major League."
"But... you are still in the youth team? You haven't participated in a professional game yet, right?"
"I'm only 16 years old this year, and it's time to improve my skills. I already have the talent, and I need more personal efforts."
"Then...Boss Yan, Boss Zhang, why are you so optimistic about a 16-year-old boy?"
"Hahaha!" Yan Qing laughed, "We are afraid that we will be too late and Xiao Yao will be snatched away by others?"
"Then you are just gambling?"
"Of course not. We firmly believe that whether it is Yeshan Hotpot or Yequan Beer, we will grow together with Xiaoyao! Grow to an unimaginable height!"
(⊙_⊙)(⊙_⊙)(⊙_⊙)……
The reporters are all speechless. Blow it! Blow it! As long as you are happy!
But what happened to Brother Yuan recently? Did someone lower his head?
Have you made a mistake? You changed your old tricks and started to make mistakes frequently? You took money instead of spending it and threw it into the water continuously?
It’s no wonder that young people become successful and rise too fast, and finally hit the rookie wall, right? This is the reason why many young people fall into trouble. After making quick money, they start spending money as they please!
Having said that, this... isn't bad! At least it caught a lot of news, enough to stimulate newspaper sales?
…
These days, the people of Hong Kong are particularly fond of Brother Yuan, because he actually brings endless joy to their boring lives.
In addition to Tang Zun red wine and fruit wine making a fool of themselves, two new stocks of Yuan Ge were listed one after another.
However, at the pre-IPO press conference, a shocking statement suddenly came out - Yequan Beer will be as successful as Tangzun Liquor!
What kind of success is that? Is it like Tianzun Winery, becoming a laughing stock and being labeled a country bumpkin?
Who will buy a label like this in the future? Isn’t it shameful enough to dislike yourself?
In the business world, people pay more attention to oral gloss. Especially in Hong Kong and Taiwan, they pay more attention to Feng Shui and other superstitious activities.
The shady start of Tang Zun Liquor Industry has long been a household name in Hong Kong. Now Yequan Beer is "the same as Tang Zun Liquor Industry"? So who will buy the stocks? Aren't you afraid of rushing into the market and hating your own money?
The other is Yeshan Hot Pot.
The catering industry is not a big business to begin with, or is it a very civilian and low-profit industry like hot pot? You can tell at a glance that it is not a popular choice for stocks at all.
Also, a 16-year-old boy loves to dream?
Please! We can still understand that teenagers have dreams. Do you two listed companies also dream together? And it is also a lifetime endorsement with a huge investment?
The money you earn every year is not enough to pay the endorsement fees, right?
The market's reaction also proved everyone's point of view - as soon as Yeshan Hot Pot and Yequan Beer were listed, they immediately broke the stock price on the first day, and the stock price also plummeted, heading straight for penny stocks...
It’s really... so satisfying! We all feel very happy to see Brother Yuan being unlucky again! Come and have a bottle of Bingku (note: without Tang Zun red wine) to help the fun!
Brother Yuan's latest strange news spread all over the streets of Hong Kong in an instant. He also made up countless jokes and successfully branded him as a "rich country bumpkin".
However, no one expected that Li Yuan would dare to resist in the face of such public opinion?
One day, on the front page of a certain "Ma Sutra", an angry brother Yuan suddenly wrote a signed article:
"...I have never understood that wine is for people to drink, not for people to show off. What I am even more curious about is why red wine and fruit wine have become foreign wines? Obviously these are national wines with a long history! In Tang poetry
There are records - luminous cups of grape wine! When we Chinese drink wine and fruit wine, foreigners still wear grass skirts and act like savages. Do they know how to drink?"
"...As long as it tastes good, you can drink it however you want. What are the rules in our country? What is popular among us Chinese is that it is noble! It is taste!"
"...Tang Zun uses pure natural raw materials and adopts the most advanced technology. He also provides customers with the most perfect drinking experience. This is the conscience of red wine and fruit wine!"
"...It seems that some people regard everything from foreign countries as a treasure? In fact, they are ignorant and have no understanding of the dignity of China. They also mislead the vast number of customers who love Chinese wine culture!"
"...The people like it, but if you don't like it, who do you think you are?"
