The World Cup preliminaries have officially come to an end. Although the national football team won all four games in this stage, it unfortunately performed poorly in the first stage and has been determined not to qualify for the World Cup. This has also become a regret for all national football fans.
In the office of Xingyao No.3 Factory.
As the weather in the south became increasingly humid and cold, Chu Tianyao installed a heater in his office.
I originally wanted to install an air conditioner, but the price of air conditioners nowadays is not cheap. Most of the good quality air conditioners are imported. Led by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries air conditioners from the island country, one unit costs tens of thousands of yuan.
However, Chu Tianyao is often out of town, so there is no need to install any air conditioning, so we can simply wait until summer.
"How's the situation over there in Dongning?"
As soon as he entered the door, Chu Tianyao hung his windbreaker on the hanger and asked Lu Qiuyu.
"The sales volume is good. Zhou Yi said that our bamboo beer is almost sold out in the Dongning market. Many dealers have taken the initiative to contact us."
Lu Qiuyu was sorting out the reports sent from various offices, and suddenly said: "In addition, Chen Feipeng also called and said that he had negotiated two breweries in Dongning, both of which are not small. I would like to ask you about
Opinion."
"Opinion?"
Chu Tianyao walked to the desk and glanced at Lu Qiuyu.
"I don't have any objections. Even if the price is a bit expensive, we must win the factory as soon as possible."
Jingle Bell!
Just as Chu Tianyao finished speaking, the landline phone on the table rang.
Chu Tianyao sat down and reached out to answer the phone.
"I'm Chen Feipeng, there's something wrong here in Dongning..."
As soon as the call was connected, Chen Feipeng's slightly anxious voice came over.
"Tell me clearly, what happened?" Chu Tianyao also frowned when he heard this.
At this time, I was far away in the office in Dongning City.
Chen Feipeng said solemnly: "I received news that Tsingtao Beer is negotiating with Dongning Brewery about the acquisition. It seems that they are inseparable."
"What!"
When he first heard this, Chu Tianyao was also very surprised.
He knew about the Dongning Brewery. It was the leading enterprise in the local beer industry in Dongning City. Unlike the Xingyao Brewery, it was an upright state-owned enterprise. It was said to be a star enterprise built with tens of millions of investments back then.
"It seems that there are more companies than we thought that will not be able to survive this winter."
Chu Tianyao said with some regret.
But what makes him even more uncomfortable is that it is not good to be acquired by anyone, but Tsingtao Brewery.
Since the establishment of Tsingtao Beer’s Chengdu Branch, anyone can see Tsingtao Beer’s determination to occupy the beer market in Sichuan Province. Especially this time, with the help of new products brought by the World Cup preliminaries, it has also made the Sichuan Province market languish for a long time.
Tsingtao Beer suddenly jumped to the forefront.
If Tsingtao Beer were allowed to acquire a few more large factories like Dongning Brewery in Sichuan Province, even Lan Jian and Shancheng would not be able to compete with them.
However, it is not Chu Tianyao's turn to care about this issue now.
"How did the acquisition go?" Chu Tianyao asked Chen Feipeng.
On the phone, Chen Feipeng paused and seemed a little embarrassed.
"Those two companies agreed to the acquisition, but the conditions they offered were not low...five million, and it must be paid in one lump sum in cash!"
"We had a good discussion before, but I didn't expect them to increase the pressure temporarily."
Chen Feipeng was ready to explain to Chu Tianyao, but the latter obviously didn't care.
"Promise them, I will prepare the finances for five million, and the factory must get it as soon as possible."
Chu Tianyao's words made Chen Feipeng's expression stiffen on the other end of the phone.
"Tsingtao Beer's acquisition of Dongning Brewery is a signal. It's not without reason that they are raising prices. If they don't take action now, I'm afraid there will be more problems by then."
After hearing Chu Tianyao's explanation, Chen Feipeng could only grit his teeth and nodded.
The other party raises the price for no reason, I'm afraid there is someone behind it.
After hanging up the phone, Chu Tianyao looked at Lu Qiuyu standing aside.
"How much money is left in the factory's account?"
"Excluding the operating costs for next quarter, the cash flow that can be used currently is 8 million." Lu Qiuyu replied.
Of the eight million, more than two million was the loan amount for three factories in Zishui City.
In addition, Chu Tianyao spent a lot of money to promote Panda Bamboo Beer. Thanks to the surge in sales of Panda Bamboo Beer this month, he made millions in profits in less than a month. Otherwise, the factory
I may not be able to open the pot right now.
"Notify the finance department to transfer five million to the Dongning City Office!"
At the desk, Chu Tianyao personally signed a payment request form and handed it to Lu Qiuyu.
five million!
In the early 1990s, this was a huge sum of money, but Chu Tianyao just waved his pen and didn't seem to be spending his own money.
Although the price of the He and Two factories in Dongning City is not cheap, it is an urgent need for Xingyao Winery, which currently needs to expand its production capacity.
Different from the situation in Zishui City, the two breweries in Dongning City are obviously larger in scale, with an annual production capacity of nearly 30,000 tons each. They were built just over three years ago and use new machines, so the prices
It's more expensive, but Chu Tianyao can barely accept it.
If it is a small brewery that is quite representative of the local area, it is estimated that the price will be doubled.
The reason why the other party is willing to sell this time is, to put it bluntly, because Lanjian and Shancheng have been crazy about grabbing market share some time ago, which has made it increasingly difficult for these low-level small factories. Otherwise, as long as they survive this winter, beer sales will enter the peak season in the spring of next year.
The factory can continue to make profits.
"By the way, it's the weekend, come to my house for dinner tonight!"
Lu Qiuyu was about to get up and go to the finance room, when she suddenly turned to Chu Tianyao and shouted.
"No, Sanshui is coming over in the afternoon, and I'll take him out to eat." Chu Tianyao responded.
Hearing this, Lu Qiuyu pursed her lips and walked straight out of the office.
at the same time.
Sichuan Province, Rongcheng.
Wang Zhongda, who was sitting in the office, looked at the person in front of him with a gloomy expression.
"Has everything been arranged?"
"Don't worry, Mr. Wang, I have made arrangements for all the well-known newspapers and magazines in the province. When the reports come out tomorrow, the sales of Xingyao Distillery will definitely plummet."
In front of Wang Zhongda, a middle-aged man in a suit said confidently.
"Okay, I can rest assured that you will handle the matter. After the acquisition of Dongning Brewery, I will leave it to you to take charge of it!" Wang Zhongda said with some satisfaction.
"Thank you, Mr. Wang, for your appreciation. I will do my best to serve Mr. Wang in the future."
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man became extremely excited.
Wang Zhongda put down the information in his hand, raised his head and glanced at the person in front of him, and emphasized: "You are not doing things for me, you are doing your duty for the company. As long as you perform well, we will naturally not bury talents like you."
"Yes, yes, that's what Mr. Wang said!"
The man echoed excitedly and showed a flattering smile to Wang Zhongda.
