Huadun Biotech has become the well-deserved biggest beneficiary.
A large number of customer groups poured into Huadun Biotech's online flagship store as public opinion fermented, and showed extremely amazing purchasing power.
It is also worth mentioning that.
On the premise that national sentiments are activated, there is another factor that determines the sales volume of a product.
That is the necessity of commodities in life.
For example, the previous White Elephant Instant Noodles, the Snow Lotus Ice Cube that has been revived by a certain ice cream assassin, and the Hongxing Erke that has been mentioned many times.
[By the way, the best app for reading and listening to books is currently Yeguo Reading, install the latest version on yeguoyuedu.]
Although the first two are cheaper, to be honest, they are not necessities in life.
For example, compared to instant noodles, many people’s first choice when they are hungry is actually takeout or the Shaxian snacks downstairs. They have not developed the habit of eating instant noodles regularly - there is no denying that many people do like to eat instant noodles, but
From a general perspective, this group of people does not account for a large proportion after all.
From the time the White Elephant incident broke out until now, some people have not even opened the instant noodles they bought.
The same is true for snow lotus ice cubes.
Although refrigerators are everywhere these days, for many office workers, refrigerators are not a daily necessity, but air conditioners are.
So in this case.
Although White Elephant and Snow Lotus were very popular at first, the final sales growth only stayed at the two figures of 30 million and 5.8 million.
But Hongxing Erke is different.
Although its unit price is high, it is a necessity in life.
You don’t have to eat instant noodles or ice cream, but you must wear shoes or clothes.
On this basis.
When the topic explodes, Hongxing Erke's sales growth will naturally be much higher than the previous two.
Hongxing Erke is like this, and today's "One Mantis Extermination" is also similar.
True.
The demand for cockroach medicine in life is indeed not as high as that of clothes and shoes, but cute little cockroaches are not uncommon.
In life, quite a few people are in a certain entangled state - when they see cockroaches, they will have the desire to buy cockroach medicine, but after the cockroaches disappear, this desire will fall off a cliff like an A-share stock.
.
Therefore, when the emotions of the customers were aroused, "One Mantis Destruction" followed the old path of Hongxing Erke.
Some people bought one or two.
Some people bought ten or twenty sticks.
At most, a single customer placed an order for a thousand pieces.
Whether it is a customer who buys one tube or a wealthy person who buys a thousand tubes, they will definitely use the cockroach medicine at the right time instead of shelving it on the shelf.
Within a week.
The daily sales of "One Mantis Killer" exceed 10 million, which is an explosive figure that has never been seen since the product was launched!
And while Xu Yun and the others were as happy as Kennedy, others were not having a good time.
That is......
There were seven companies that participated in the online meeting - or to be precise, it should be six companies except Vareni.
This kind of groundless slander is absolutely forbidden even abroad.
Not to mention that these six foreign companies that smeared Xu Yun also had competitors abroad who wished they were dead...
"idiot!"
Neon.
Inside the office of Aspen Club.
Kyouichiro Tokuda slapped an article reporting on his "leaking behavior" onto his desk, breathing hard through his thick nostrils:
"This is slander! This is rumor! This is betrayal!
"
"..."
Looking at the chairman who looked like a furious lion, Yukihiro Nakajo stood in front of his desk with his head lowered and his expression as silent as ice.
Not long ago.
As the stick hacker group's tweets spread, seven foreign companies involved in the plot to smear Xu Yun were suddenly pushed to the forefront.
As the "leaker", Kyouichiro Tokuda has encountered unprecedented verbal and written criticism.
The company's social media account was filled with all kinds of insults, so much so that the public relations department had to launch an emergency review.
In addition, someone found out his home address and ran outside the house to put up a banner that said, "You are worse than Italy."
Facing this circumstances.
While Kyouichiro Tokuda was angry, he also felt strong grievances in his heart.
Although he did keep a copy of the meeting video, it is completely different from the one circulated on the Internet, okay?
The meeting video he had burned was lying quietly in the safe on the right side of his desk, without even a network cable connected. How could it be spread on the Internet?
Do you really think that the secret agent played by the secretary the day before yesterday was real?
However, the meeting video was so well pre-processed that even Kyouichiro Tokuda couldn't find any errors or omissions.
Even in the eyes of Corinna and others, he must be the leaker of this incident.
The head of Asi Club experienced for the first time what it meant to have mud fall into his crotch and not be able to wash it off.
A full half minute passed.
Kyouichiro Tokuda just took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and asked Yukihiro Nakajo in a stiff tone:
"Nakajo, how are the sales of our products now?"
Seeing that Tokuda Kyouichiro didn't even bother to call out "Nakajo-san", a large bead of sweat suddenly dropped from Nakajo Yukihiro's forehead.
He hurriedly got dressed, put his legs together, and replied hesitantly:
"President...Mr. President, in the past three days, our domestic product sales have dropped by about 46%..."
Said.
Nakajo Yukihiro looked at Kyouichiro Tokuda in fear, swallowed hard, and continued:
"As for sales in China, they have dropped... by more than 85%."
“No road race!
"
Wow——
Nakajo Yukihiro had just finished speaking.
Kyouichiro Tokuda couldn't help but scream, swept his hands across the desktop, and angrily pushed all the documents, phones, teacups, and notebooks on the desktop to the ground.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Bang——
The phone located on the front right side of the table went down the corner of the table and hit Yukihiro Nakajo's right toes hard.
Nakajo Yukihiro's whole body suddenly twitched, and he endured the excruciating pain, but his whole body remained as motionless as a sculpture.
Then Kyouichiro Tokuda took a few heavy breaths, tremblingly took out a small bottle from the drawer, and shook out two pills on the palm of his hand.
Put it to your mouth and raise your head.
Swallowed the pill.
Then he looked at Nakajo Yukihiro again, took a deep breath, and ordered:
"Nakajo, you should contact the media immediately and try your best to change our image in public opinion..."
"President, President!"
Before Kyouichiro Tokuda could finish his words, there was a burst of hurried shouting outside the office, and a pretty young woman broke in:
"Oh no, Mr. President, something happened!"
Seeing that his words were interrupted, Tokuda Kyouichiro immediately looked at the person coming with a fierce look, without caring about the identity of the person who was his secretary and lover:
"What happened? Didn't I tell you to knock on the door when entering the house?"
If in normal times.
Facing an angry president, most young women will bow quickly and exit the office step by step.
Then obediently followed Tokuda Kyouichiro's request and first knocked on the office door, then opened Tokuda Kyouichiro's door, and finally opened his own door.
But at this time, she was so excited that she no longer cared about doing these formal tricks:
"Mr. President, the Legal Department has just received a letter from the Neon Insecticide Association. They are preparing to cancel the company's product qualifications!"
"?!"
Hear this.
Kyouichiro Tokuda's original anger was stuck in his throat.
He was stunned for a few seconds, and then he quickly shook his head after coming back to his senses:
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Then he thought of something again and suddenly said to his secretary:
"Nobuko, quickly contact Takeda Pharmaceutical and Mr. Takeda Heizo. He must have a solution!"
The clinker secretary was silent for a moment and handed a printed copy to Kyouichiro Tokuda:
"President, the person who signed this delisting letter is Mr. Takeda Heizo..."
Kyouichiro Tokuda was stunned for a moment.
........
at the same time.
on webex software.
A remote meeting is also going on quietly.
There were six participants in this meeting, from Advion, Vilosi, Vareni Pesticide Company, Risazorno, Nutrien, and Bayer.
That's right.
Except for Aspen Pharmaceuticals, the other six foreign companies that originally decided to discredit Xu Yun gathered together again.
But compared to the original Corinna and others.
The members attending this meeting were all top executives from various companies.
For example, the coo of Bayer's current headquarters came here.
Here comes the group chief CPO.
vilosi even came as the chairman of the company...
Today, Bayer has a market value of nearly US$60 billion, advion has a market value of US$37 billion, nutrien has a market value of US$40.4 billion, and vilosi has a market value of US$14.7 billion...
Except for Vareni Pesticide Company, which is a bit more stretched.
Even the penultimate company, Risazorno, has a market value of more than 3 billion U.S. dollars.
To know.
The market value of Industrial Bank, converted into U.S. dollars, is only over 40 billion.
without any exaggeration.
This is an absolutely dream-level lineup, and you don’t have many opportunities to see talks of this level even offline.
And what prompted these giants to gather here...
Naturally, this is the image leak incident.
Bayer's COO's full name is Bauer Linde. He has a Chinese character face, a hooked nose, and deep-set eyes. He is a middle-aged man who looks tough.
Although Bauer Linde is a German, he speaks with a standard London accent:
"Gentlemen and girls, I believe everyone knows the reason for convening this meeting today."
"The situation is urgent and everyone's time is precious, so we don't have to delay like the last game, right?"
The ‘last session’ that Bauer Linde refers to is the meeting where the footage was leaked.
At that time, because everyone had their own concerns, the meeting took a long time to officially start.
Paul Lind’s words seemed to be admonishing everyone to hurry up, but in fact they were a warning:
No one should ever try to intercept the video again.
Of course.
How many people will listen to this warning is something only God knows.
After a while.
Advion's CPO Paulinho Curry raised his hand.
Compared to Paul Lind’s deep face, Paulinho Curry looks much gentler:
"Everyone, let me introduce the situation first - according to the information just obtained, Asi Club has been banned by the neon eradication industry."
Hear this.
Everyone's expressions were almost unchanged.
As the 'culprit' of this image leak, the fate of Aspen Club was determined almost from the beginning.
After all, although Asi Club’s market value is not high, its market share in Neon’s domestic market is not low.
Countless colleagues have been eyeing it for a long time.
As for its business in China, Aspen Pharmaceuticals has had some friction with the local people in Tianjin in recent years:
Asi Club invested in Jinmen Asi, a wholly foreign-owned enterprise in Jinmen in 1990. At that time, it signed a contract with a business period of 50 years, and the transfer of the factory land was for a period of 30 years.
That is to say, by July 2020, the preferential land treatment enjoyed by Aspen Pharmaceuticals will expire.
But Aspen Pharmaceuticals was unwilling to lose this preferential treatment, so it kept arguing with Jinmen and even threatened to move the factory.
At the same time, Aspen Pharmaceuticals has become very close to Haidong Duan in recent years, and has even established several shell companies.
There are enemies inside who are eyeing the market, and there are frictions with local officials outside.
In this situation, the black information about AS Club has been exposed again. How could anyone not add insult to injury?
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Tell the truth.
This kind of collapse due to black materials is not uncommon in the business field.
For example, Guanshengyuan, a century-old store, was reviled by countless people overnight because of two expired mooncakes.
If not for the successful restructuring later, this sign would have been wiped out by now.
There is also the recent Blizzard incident - although this incident has nothing to do with black materials, it is enough to show that in the mall, anything can happen.
Therefore, the ban of Asi Club is not a strange thing to everyone.
"Mr. Paulinho, there is no need to discuss waste that cannot be saved."
Soon, the chairman of the group from Vilosi, a silver-haired old man in his sixties spoke:
"The key question now is...how are we going to survive?"
"So far, vilosi's market value has evaporated by nearly 600 million, and Bayer's has evaporated by more than 1.5 billion - this is still a figure when the outside world remains on the sidelines."
"If we don't respond, I have no doubt that our market value will plummet like a certain Mr. President."
"...."
This time.
Many people's expressions suddenly changed.
As the silver-haired old man said.
The reason why the current market value of various companies has not collapsed is that the people involved in the incident were not high-ranking enough to represent the entire group.
Secondly, several companies exerted their influence on public opinion and temporarily suppressed public sentiment.
But this approach is only temporary. If the company does not give a specific response, even if it can silence everyone in the media, it will not prevent the stock market from collapsing.
Actually.
Those top foreign financial institutions like short selling the most.
After a while.
Bauer Lind seemed to have made up his mind and said:
"Everyone, as Mr. Kahler said, we cannot wait any longer."
"There is an old Chinese saying that cuts through the mess with a sharp sword. We must give the public an explanation as soon as possible, so we may have to sacrifice some people..."
"I disagree!"
Before Paul Lind finished speaking, he was interrupted by a mean-looking woman:
"It is absolutely impossible for me to surrender to those Chinese people!"
This person is Angelica Alda Braga, executive director of nutrien, and a contemporary spokesperson for the Braga family, the controller behind nutrien.
ash was formed through the merger of two companies in 2018, and agrium is one of the core industries belonging to the Braga family.
On the original anti-M and C aid battlefields, agrium provided a large amount of material assistance to the M army.
Nutrien has always insisted on doing business with China, but it always adheres to two points:
Firstly, the transfer of core technologies is prohibited, and secondly, prices will generally increase by 20%-40%.
In other words...
Just treat China as a dumping ground.
no way.
Although Nutrien's main business is chemical fertilizers, and it seems that he has little technology, chemical fertilizers are actually not that simple.
For example, Asan next door has not yet established a chemical fertilizer system.
Up to now, there are only a few countries in the world that can play in the conversion fertilizer industry chain.
For example, there are no more than seven countries in the world that can develop metal pipes that are highly airtight and can withstand high temperatures and pressures.
So all the time.
Both in terms of self-perception and reality, Angelica Alda Braga is in a position of overlooking from a high place.
There are currently 57 items of embargoed equipment and materials belonging to Nutrien in the Wassenaar Agreement. Now I want Angelica Alda Braga to bow to those Chinese people...
How can this be done?
Looking at the mean-looking Angelica Alda Braga, Paul Lind shook his head slightly.
I really can’t figure out the tense...
Then he was silent for a moment and said to Angelica Alda Braga:
"Ms. Angelica, if I remember correctly, your company's board of directors will vote again in early March next year, right?"
Angelica Alda Braga couldn't help but her eyes darkened:
"Mr. Ball, what do you mean?"
Paul Lind looked at her deeply across the screen and said meaningfully:
"As far as I know, several directors of PotashCorp have been acquiring retail stocks of your company, and the leader, Mr. Anderson, has a close relationship with Citron Capital. If your company does not handle it properly this time..."
Nutrien's original merger had a strong political overtone, and was a collaboration to expand the cross-border market.
Although Agrium accounts for the majority of the board of directors after the merger, several directors of Potashcorp have been increasing their stock holdings.
If those directors really take this opportunity to cooperate with Citron Capital, a well-known short-selling institution...
Think of this.
Angelica Alda Braga's expression changed even more.
Looking at the silent scene.
Even though this was a remote online meeting, everyone still felt a sense of depression.
Of course.
Except for Varenne's Gareth Toure.
Although he had the same numb and solemn expression at this time, in fact, his molars in his heart were almost laughing.
In fact, when he handed over the image, he was prepared to be blocked by the pesticide industry - his business is mainly in China, and whether he is blocked abroad is not a big problem, and it will not affect the use of pesticides no matter what.
China Export.
What I didn't expect was...
Those Chinese people directly put the blame on Kyouichiro Tokuda by slightly changing the image...
At the same time, the contract between the two parties was with another shell company. The business of more than 100 million Chinese dollars in five years was really easy to cover up for China, which imported nearly 20 billion in chemical fertilizers annually.
So in a moment.
Gareth Toure became a potentially exposed traitor and a victim who was able to attend the meeting.
Sometimes, surrender is also a wise move...
that's all.
The entire scene was silent for about five minutes.
Then Paulinho sighed and raised his hands proactively:
"Okay, advion has no objection."
Following the first person's statement, a second person soon spoke:
"Risazzorno seconded the motion."
Then comes the third one:
"Vilosi seconded..."
A while passed.
Angelica Alda Braga sighed helplessly:
"nutrien seconded..."
till the end.
Gareth Toure slowly raised his hand and said in a deep voice like a warrior who fought to the end:
"Vareni seconded..."
.......
Three hours later.
The official websites of the six major companies also released an apology statement:
[Due to the illegal operations of some employees, which caused serious economic and public loss to Huadun Biotech and Mr. Xu Yun, xxx company once again solemnly apologized and immediately fired all company employees present at the meeting...
.]
And actually.
The price they paid was far more than what was announced...
............
Note:
Let me inform you that there may not be an update tomorrow. I have an interview to attend, and the appointment is for the whole afternoon. I guess I have to have a dinner. I may not have much time to type. It is not convenient for the media to tell me specifically. I am probably an ordinary front-line official.
