Rebirth 2004 starts again

Originally, he thought that the matter was over, but he didn't expect that his father would come to him today and said that he would take him to apologize to Lin Yu. He was a little confused at the time. You must know that he only moved his hands a few times, although it was a bit excessive. But his arm was broken by his brother, so why should he apologize to Lin Yu? Is it because he is very powerful?

The main thing is that his strength has nothing to do with him. It is Liu Bowen who wants to follow Lin Yu, and it is not Liu Ming who wants to follow Lin Yu.

But after he said such words, his father threatened to break his other arm if he didn't apologize. Based on this, Liu Mingcai followed him to Jiang Yuelou.

The door to the private room was pushed open and Lin Yu walked in.

Liu Bowen stood up after seeing Lin Yu. Liu Bowen's father also stood up and pulled Liu Ming up.

Lin Yu looked at Liu Bowen's father carefully. Lin Yu knew that he had never seen this man before. Of course, just because Lin Yu had never seen him before did not necessarily mean that he would not be successful in the business. After all, Lin Yu's memory was also limited. He has not been seen by everyone.

Liu Bowen said

"Brother Lin, let me introduce to you, this is my father Liu Xiangtian."

Liu Xiangtian stretched out his hand and said

"I heard Bowen said a lot about Mr. Lin, and when I saw him today he was indeed very impressive."

"Excuse me. I wonder why you came to me today?"

"It's like this. Bowen told me about Liu Ming when he got home. I think Bowen did the right thing. Liu Ming touched your lover in the mall, which should have broken his arms. Now Being able to break only one arm, I still feel a little sorry for you, so I brought Liu Ming to make amends to you. I hope you can ignore the faults of villains and forgive me, my little son."

After Liu Xiangtian finished speaking, he gave Liu Ming a look, and Liu Ming immediately stepped forward and said

"Mr. Lin, I was wrong. I didn't know that was your wife. Please forgive me."

After Liu Ming finished speaking, he bowed.

Lin Yu also frowned, because if he just came to apologize, it would be completely unnecessary. So Lin Yu was guessing that the other party wanted to trouble him.

But for Liu Bowen's sake, he still had to give them a step up.

"Okay, what's in the past is in the past, I'll just pretend it never happened."

Liu Ming said

"Thank you Mr. Lin."

Liu Xiangtian said

"Mr. Lin, thank you for forgiving my youngest son. To express our apology, I have a gift that I want to give to Mr. Lin. I hope Mr. Lin will accept it."

After Liu Xiangtian finished speaking, he took out a portfolio, and then took out a contract and handed it to Lin Yu.

Lin Yu read the contract after taking it and saw that it was a share transfer contract.

So he frowned and said

"Mr. Liu, what do you mean?"

"Mr. Lin, it's like this. I'm a supermarket operator. Although my business is very average, there are more than a dozen large supermarkets in the country. You made a lot of money with your blog before, and I wanted to spend some of it at that time. Thank you for the equity. I didn’t find an opportunity for a while. This time my younger son accidentally offended you again, so I took this opportunity to apologize and give you part of the equity. I hope you can forgive me for what my younger son has done. , and at the same time, I hope you can continue to lead Bowen regardless of the past grudges. In fact, Bowen still admires you very much, otherwise he would not have personally broken his brother's arm."

In fact, Lin Yu knew about Liu Xiangtian when he saw the contract, because in later generations, the supermarket he ran did enter the top 100 supermarkets in China, and there were supermarket chains in many provinces. But there are still many large supermarkets in front of him that are better than him, so Liu Xiangtian's name Lin Yucai has no impression, but he has heard of the supermarket brand he founded, and he also went there in later generations. Have shopped.

Lin Yu was a little surprised by Liu Xiangtian's gift of supermarket shares. Although he only has a dozen supermarkets now, in 2004, large supermarkets were still very profitable, especially when they were all opened in the most prosperous places. . But the % of the shares he gave to himself were actually nothing? You must know that you helped Liu Bowen earn million, which is more than enough to buy several of his supermarkets.

Of course, when Lin Yu helped Liu Bowen make money, he didn't think about repaying it, so Lin Yu couldn't take the shares. However, Lin Yu was reminded by Liu Xiangtian that all large shopping malls nowadays are foreign brands, and almost all of them are foreign brands. Few domestic brands can compete with foreign brands. In fact, the reason is very simple. Foreign brands entered China earlier, have more stores in China, and occupy a favorable position, which makes people develop consumption habits. .

At the same time, because it has hundreds of thousands of stores around the world, it has comparative influence, giving them the ability to negotiate prices for a single product. This results in them being able to get the ex-factory price in many cases, and sometimes even lower than the price obtained by dealers. Therefore, in terms of activities, almost no domestic brands can compete with them.

However, Lin Yu knew that in later generations, these foreign brands slowly faded out of the domestic market. The main reason was that the retail market gradually became high-end and vertical, which caused the price advantage they gained on certain product brands to change. It is not that important, and the role of price activities has gradually become smaller.

In addition, the new retail market provides customers with more products and services through the Internet, but they have stalled, which further squeezes their market share.

Of course, the main reason is the increase in operating costs. You must know that most foreign brand supermarkets chose independent commercial stores when they entered China. With the increase in real estate prices in China, their rents have also increased, and with the increase in the average salary of employees, their rents have also increased. The operating costs of supermarkets remain high, which makes their profits less and less. According to urban development, more and more local brand supermarkets are perfectly integrating supermarkets with newly built shopping malls, bringing a steady flow of customers. This Progress One has squeezed out the market share of foreign supermarkets. Based on the above reasons, foreign supermarkets are slowly fading out of the Chinese market, which also allows local supermarket brands to develop.
