Just when the Chinese medicinal materials industry is fully cooperating with the public on Eastern medicine, the two Eastern medicine companies in Korea are unable to sit still.
Recently, they have been unable to buy medicinal materials?
This is a rare occurrence in the decades since the birth of Eastern medicine.
Li Guoyin, the president of Chengyu Pharmaceutical, and Cui Kezhi, the CEO of Kezhi Dongyao Pharmaceutical Company, secretly held an emergency meeting with some domestic agents.
The so-called agents are just a bunch of compradors.
In their early years, they relied on their poor background and information to establish a foreign trade company and became the first batch of foreign trade bosses.
Of course, at that time of reform and opening up, China was eager for foreign trade, and foreign trade basically had no technical content.
As long as you understand foreign languages and trade procedures, you can basically make a lot of money.
Most people get started by relying on this outlet.
But after they made money, they immediately began to collude together, set up industry thresholds, divided their spheres of influence, cracked down on newcomers, and monopolized the industry.
That’s all!
Human nature is like that!
What is even more despicable is that in order to seize greater profits, some compradors do not dare to use their foreign customers' minds, so they turn their attention to the country, bullying and exploiting domestic suppliers in disguise, and becoming a new trade barrier.
Of course, not everyone does this, but most do.
This group of people also established a foreign medicinal materials export association and supported a few puppets to help them shout.
Previously, Neptune carried out an operation against compradors in Yun Province, and basically all the compradors in Yun Province were wiped out.
But it did not affect the Goryeo Kingdom.
So they still go their own way.
This time, Neptune united the entire industry and defeated the comprador of Korean medicinal materials in one fell swoop.
You must know that compradors are compradors because they are just intermediaries, not producers.
Now the king of the sea gave an order to cut off the channels to the Korean medicinal materials, and the comprador was beaten back to his original shape overnight.
It doesn't matter if they can't buy the goods, but if Korea has no goods, how can they act as compradors?
So this group of people began to panic and looked for people to buy medicinal materials through connections.
Maybe they were exploited so badly by this gang of compradors. Those who had supplied them before were gloating about their misfortune, and no one came to help.
Even those who are willing to help out will soon be dealt with by their colleagues.
After a busy week, I received almost no medicinal materials.
"What did you do? If you can't even handle this little thing, what's the use of you?"
Li Guoyin roared and slapped the table.
In his view, when Chengyu Pharmaceutical buys medicinal materials from agents, it is to give them food. It's okay if you are not grateful. Now there is a problem, and there is nothing you can do about it?
It simply makes no sense.
"President Li, this really has nothing to do with us."
One agent said fearfully.
They also thought of a way to do this.
Whether it was going to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to protest or going to Neptune to put pressure, they were all instigating it behind the scenes.
But it's of no use.
This time the entire industry is determined to cut off their channels.
"President Li, Neptune is unwilling to sell it to us. Even if we have money, we can't buy medicinal materials in China."
Another agent complained.
This time Neptune really hurt them.
Let’s not talk about those who don’t have enough money. Their future financial opportunities may be cut off.
"A bunch of idiots!"
Cui Kezhi also snorted.
Both of them have regular agents.
All business of the two companies is left to them.
These people just want to make money, but no one is there to channel it.
Now that the channel has been blocked, everyone is paralyzed.
There is a saying in China that is not afraid of opponents who are like gods, but teammates who are like pigs.
The agent also feels aggrieved!
They only need to exploit suppliers, why bother to work hard to build their own channels?
"Okay, okay, you go back first."
Li Guoyin waved his hand.
He didn't come here just to be angry with these pig teammates.
Because he got a definite message.
China's import business of medicinal materials from Goryeo has been taken over by Yin Dongzhu.
This is not a good thing.
In the past, the five major oriental medicines were on equal terms, and Dongzhu Pharmaceuticals was not even as good as Chengyu and Kezhi Pharmaceuticals.
But a year ago, Dongzhu Pharmaceutical annexed Junggen, hooked up with President Roh Hyun-moo, and unexpectedly jumped to become the largest Dongyang pharmaceutical company in Korea.
"President Li, it seems that Yin Dongzhu is going to attack our two families. Doesn't this old woman have too much appetite?"
Cui Kezhi pushed up his glasses.
He also learned the news.
On the surface, it was a counterattack by the Chinese medicinal materials industry against the two of them, but it was actually Yin Dongzhu's handiwork.
Once their source of medicinal materials is cut off and they want to continue production, they have to turn to Yin Dongzhu for help.
Is Yin Dongzhu the kind of person who is easy to talk to?
Maybe, they have already made plans for it.
"She won't succeed, and the medicinal materials won't be sealed for long."
Li Guoyin gritted his teeth.
At present, the Chinese medicinal materials industry is united and it will be impossible to buy medicinal materials in a short period of time. But Li Guoyin knows the nature of the Chinese people very well, and it won't be long before someone comes to them.
The worst option is to find a few companies to do third-party trading.
First buy the medicinal materials in the name of other countries, and then sell them back to Korea.
Although the cost is a bit higher, it won't make Yin Dongzhu angry.
hehe!
Cui Kezhi smiled faintly.
He doesn't think much of these two items.
Since Yin Dongzhu has the ability to block their medicinal materials, he will naturally find ways to deal with third-party trade.
Facts have proved that this woman is very powerful and will not give up until she achieves her goal.
"Don't be so weird here. Why don't you tell me that you can do something about it?"
Li Guoyin has a bad temper.
Today, Cui Kezhi invited him to come over to discuss the issue.
"President Li, please be patient..."
Cui Kezhi handed over a cigar.
Li Guoyin waved his hand.
Now that his inventory is running low, how can he think about smoking cigars?
Cui Kezhi baked it himself.
"President Li, what do you think the purpose of Yin Dongzhu's move is?"
nonsense!
Li Guoyin rolled his eyes and said: "This old woman wants to annex all the Dongzhu Pharmaceutical companies, leaving only her Dongzhu Pharmaceutical family."
As the president of a company, he is naturally not stupid.
Yin Dongzhu used basic materials to make a fuss, didn't he just want to trick them?
Currently, there are only four oriental medicine companies left.
Dongzhu Pharmaceutical accounts for half of the Oriental medicine business and is it still not satisfied?
"Now that we know her purpose, we have a chance to crack it."
Cui Kezhi put down the lighter and slowly took a puff of the cigar.
"Crack, how to crack?"
Li Guoyin looked at Cui Kezhi in confusion.
In terms of strength, Dongzhu Pharmaceutical is slightly more than the two of them combined.
In terms of background, Dongzhu Pharmaceutical has the support of current President Lu Xuanwu.
In terms of influence, people have already joined the Chinese herbal medicine shop.
What did you use to crack it?
hehe!
Cui Kezhi smiled and said, "Could it be that you have forgotten the Korean Eastern medicine?"
cut!
Li Guoyin thought Cui Kezhi had any good ideas?
Dagoryeo oriental medicine?
At the beginning, the weakest among the five major pharmaceutical companies was probably Korea Dongyang Pharmaceutical.
If the government hadn't supported them, they would have collapsed long ago.
Count on them?
It's better to count on yourself.
"Don't forget, the boss behind Dagoryeo Medicine is the military."
Cui Kezhi said something meaningful.
military?
Li Guoyin smiled.
The Koryo military was just like that, why not have the right to speak as the chaebol?
This is not nonsense on his part.
This is so true!
Chaebols can be passed down from generation to generation and monopolize multiple industries forever.
But how many years does a general serve?
It’s not the beautiful father who has the final say.
Today you are a general.
Tomorrow you might not be.
If I say I won't let you do it, I won't let you do it.
Military generals who have been deposed are as numerous as the crucian carp crossing the river.
"Our current president is Lu Xuanwu!"
Cui Kezhi reminded again.
Lu Xuanwu was a populist president.
Daewoo tried to trick him, but he killed him instead.
"Oh, you also know that it is Lu Xuanwu, and you must know that the old woman Yin Dongzhu is his ally."
Li Guoyin said with a sneer.
It should be said that this old woman Yin Dongzhu really has some insight, and she helped Lu Xuanwu when he was under investigation.
Later, Lu Xuanwu was fine, so he naturally wanted to repay him well.
It is precisely because of Lu Xuanwu's support that Dongzhu Pharmaceutical became the leader of Eastern medicine in one fell swoop.
well!
Hearing what Li Guoyin said, Cui Kezhi couldn't help but sigh.
This thing?
How did you become the president?
I actually didn't understand it at all.
It's also Dongyao, so why are their two companies' supplies cut off, but there's nothing wrong with Dagoryeo Dongyao?
That's because Yin Dongzhu didn't want to attack Dagoryeo Dongyao.
Even with Roh Hyun-moo's support, Yin Dong-joo is unwilling to conflict with Dagoryeo Dongyao?
This proves the uniqueness of Dagoryeo Eastern Medicine.
You must know that pharmaceutical companies can be directly taken over by the government during wartime.
Dagoryeo Oriental Medicine is a government private land.
Even Yin Dongzhu didn't dare to touch it easily.
"President Li, our two families are weak. If we want to break through the blockade of Dongzhu Pharmaceutical, we must seek the support of Dagoryeo Pharmaceutical. I believe Jin Zhongyuan will help us."
Cui Kezhi expressed his opinion directly.
He found that communicating with Li Guoyin was really troublesome.
"Jin Zhongyuan is not an easy person to talk to. If you want to communicate, go ahead. Besides, there is no shortage of medicinal materials in Dagoryeo medicine?"
Li Guoyin snorted.
The current person in charge of Dagoryeo Dongyang is named Kim Joong-won. This person has a very weird temperament and is incompatible with other chaebols.
Dagoryeo Oriental Medicine is a state-owned enterprise and can purchase medicinal materials in the name of the state, which is different from private companies like them.
"But isn't Jin Zhongyuan also worried about Dongzhu Pharmaceutical?"
Cui Kezhi is sincere and good at teaching.
What do you mean?
Li Guoyin was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding.
The lips are dead and the teeth are cold!
Cui Kezhi smiled and said: "If we fail, no one in the market can check and balance Yin Dongzhu."
Li Guoyin thought about it carefully and realized that this was true.
Although Dagoryeo Dongyang is independent, it is also a member of this industry.
Once Yoon Dong-joo unifies the oriental medicine market, there will be no benefit to Korea's oriental medicine.
"Okay, let's do it! Let's go find Chairman Jin."
Li Guoyin was overjoyed.
…
Another hotel.
Yin Dongzhu looked at Jin Zhongyuan with a smile.
Jin Zhongyuan is in his fifties, slightly fat, tall, with sharp eyes and meticulous clothes.
"Mrs. Yin is here for the second time. What can you learn from me?"
Jin Zhongyuan's tone was very calm.
As the head of Goryeo's state-owned enterprise, Kim Joong-won's identity is not simple. He is a member of the military.
Due to historical reasons, the military and political systems of Goryeo were different.
On the surface, the military is subordinate to the president, but in fact, the boss behind the military is the United States.
Even the president cannot control the internal affairs of the military.
It is for this reason that Dagoryeo Pharmaceutical is so independent.
Kim Joong-won, who was a soldier, looked down on these private bosses.
But Yoon Dong-joo has some exceptions.
Because her ally is the current president Lu Xuanwu.
Although Lu Xuanwu could not control the military, some superficial articles still had to be done.
After all, the military serves the president.
"Lieutenant Colonel Jin is so polite..."
Yin Dongzhu said with a smile.
"Call me Chairman Kim!"
Jin Zhongyuan corrected.
He used to be a lieutenant colonel in the military, but he has retired long ago.
hehe……
Yin Dongzhu's smile remained unchanged and said: "I have great admiration for Chairman Jin and Dagoryeo Pharmaceutical. Dagoryeo Pharmaceutical is very prosperous under the leadership of Chairman Jin. The management aspect is even more outstanding, and it is absolutely forbidden..."
Jin Zhongyuan's face looks much better.
He was born in the military and was assigned to be the boss of this company. He didn't know much about other businesses, but he still had a lot of experience in management.
To put it bluntly, the management of Dagoryeo Dongyao has completely followed the tactics of the military.
Of course, there is no problem with the kind of management in the military.
But running a business is a little bit worse.
Therefore, everything in Dagoryeo is lifeless.
"Chairman Jin, out of admiration for you. I, Dongzhu Pharmaceutical, want to imitate your system of establishing a company, and I would like to ask for more guidance from Chairman Jin."
Yin Dongzhu said with a smile.
Yeah?
Hearing this, Jin Zhongyuan became happy.
In fact, since Jin Zhongyuan entered the Dagoryeo Pharmaceutical Company, this pharmaceutical company can be said to be like Wang Xiaoer's Chinese New Year, and every year is worse than the last.
But because of the relationship with the military, channels can still be guaranteed.
So I can neither hold on nor be hungry.
What Jin Zhongyuan is most proud of is incorporating militarization into the Dagoryeo pharmaceutical system.
He had little interest in business, but cared about management very much, and summed up a set of management methods, which was euphemistically called King's Management School.
Of course, all entrepreneurs except him scorned it.
What’s the use of management that can’t make money?
That is to say, Dagoryeo Dongyao has the support of the military, and it will definitely be a failure if it is replaced by another company.
Jin Zhongyuan was naturally hit hard.
Now that Yin Dongzhu comes to study, it really scratches his itch.
"Mrs. Yin, you don't have to be polite. We are both pharmaceutical companies, so we naturally need to help each other..."
Jin Zhongyuan smiled, looking like a fellow-minded person.
In just half an hour of meeting, Yin Dongzhu basically got a handle on Kim Joong Won, and the latter even introduced Yin Dongzhu as a confidant.
…
Done, let’s go!
Yin Dongzhu stood up slowly and asked Son Yejin to leave together.
I came here this time to make good friends with Jin Zhongyuan and avoid others from asking for help.
But now it seems that she was worrying too much.
Even if he can't come, Jin Zhongyuan will not pay attention to other people.
Son Ye-jin remained silent.
"What's wrong?"
Yin Dongzhu asked curiously.
"I was wondering, why does a good company have such pedantic managers?"
Son Ye-jin sighed.
After all, she is a Korean and somewhat disappointed in the country.
hehe!
Yin Dongzhu smiled.
For those in power, ability is only one aspect, the most important thing is... to be obedient.
Although Jin Zhongyuan is not very capable, he has absolutely no problem with being obedient.
Otherwise, he would not have been able to occupy the position of president of the Korean Traditional Medicine Association for so many years.
