Rebirth 1990: The beginning is sweet and cool Bai Yueguang

"Also, starting from this morning, our factory has received a lot more orders than yesterday. We..."

Qiao Laosan raised his hand to interrupt him.

He looked at Erpao and said, "You heard it too. So, you go back first. I need to think about it. I'll contact you when I'm done."

"Third Master, we have risked our lives and our belongings, we..." Erpao wanted to say more.

Qiao Laosan interrupted: "Didn't you understand what I said?"

Erpao shut up, stared at Qiao Laosan, hesitated for a moment and said, "Master San, you will need me. I can delay the progress of Zhou Qi's loan."

Qiao Laosan was certain that there must be something wrong with Zhou Qi’s funding chain.

As for the loan, he thinks it is very likely.

Otherwise, where would Zhou Qi get so much money to fight him?

He did not completely deny the Second Artillery Corps, but promised to give him some benefits so that he could slow down Zhou Qi's loan process.

Relying on his official background, the amount of loan Zhou Qi can get will definitely not be small. If this money really falls into Zhou Qi's hands, it is hard to say what the final result will be.

Now he has few channels to raise funds.

If he continues to waste time like this, he may have to sell his house and car, or go to the bank for a loan.

As soon as Erpao left, Li Ye said, "Third Master, I think we have to raise our prices, at least at cost price. Now we have more and more orders, and the market is so chaotic. Some middlemen ship our products to Henan to make a profit. We can't bear it any longer."

Qiao Laosan also had a lot of grievances.

This situation was totally different from what he had expected.

But this is a life-and-death battle. If he doesn't squeeze Zhou Qi out of the market, once Zhou Qi grows bigger, his canned fruit business will be finished.

Right now, with so much money being burned, is the most critical moment.

"No." Qiao Lao San shook his head and said, "We can't raise the price. Zhou Qi is also linked to the poverty alleviation project. If we adjust our profits to be the same as his, our advantage will disappear in an instant. Let's wait and see for another two days."

"In addition, we will try to put off other orders as much as possible, and give priority to supplying orders from the market."

Free distribution and slow capital recovery.

He has to advance payment for every amount of goods shipped, and the orders are increasing every day, and he can hardly afford it anymore.

We were originally worried that Zhou Qi would expand the market, but now the supply in Zhou Qi’s local market is stretched, not to mention other places. It’s time to adjust the strategy.

On the other side, Erpao called Zhou Qi.

He told Zhou Qi everything he saw and heard, as well as Qiao Laosan's attitude.

This result is both unexpected and not surprising.

He didn't say much and asked Erpao to wait for news from Qiao Laosan.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Qi fell into deep thought.

Calculating all this, Qiao Laosan must have burned more than one million.

Where does so much money come from?

He began to worry about the people behind Qiao Laosan.

It's really unpleasant to not be able to figure out your opponent's strengths.

Two consecutive days passed, and Zhou Qi reduced the supply every day, while Qiao Laosan increased the supply every day.

The two companies are in stark contrast.

This made everyone feel that Pinliang was about to fail in the struggle.

As the situation changed, merchants began to take action, which was to frantically demand goods. Large orders flew into Qiao Laosan's office, and the amount of each order was not small.

If Pinliang fails, Samsung Canned Food will definitely adjust its profits, or even cancel its free distribution policy. Before that, you should order as many goods as possible. Once the agreement is signed, the profit point will not change. Once the goods are in your hands, you can adjust the price as you want. Every extra cent you can earn is a cent.

This directly put Qiao Lao San on the fire.

Do you want to take orders?

That would cost a lot of money.

Not accepting orders?

Wouldn’t all the hard work to build up the market be wasted?

Adjust the amount?

The situation could be reversed immediately.

If you have the market, you can make money; if you lose the market, you have nothing.

Zhou Qi seemed to be at the end of his strength, so he had to fight.

As soon as the supply and marketing agreement was signed, the amount of money owed by Qiao Laosan for goods instantly soared to 650,000.

To complete this batch of orders, the hundreds of thousands of dollars in hand are far from enough.

He thought of the Second Artillery...

Five hundred thousand went into Qiao Laosan's pocket, while Zhou Qi got a 10% equity contract.

On this day, a piece of news caught the public's attention.

The lead singer of the band Scarecrow suddenly had a severe stomachache while recording a Samsung canned food commercial and was rushed to the hospital. An insider revealed that the lead singer had eaten canned meat produced by Zhenbang Food, the parent company of Samsung Canned Food, before the recording.

Zhenbang Food Factory, as a long-established canned food manufacturer, has always been very popular with its products. However, following the incident involving the lead singer of the Scarecrow band, some fans said that after eating Samsung canned food, they experienced varying degrees of vomiting and diarrhea...

An insider revealed that the production cost of Samsung canned fruit is extremely low. The cost of a can that retails for 1.8 yuan on the market is less than 20 cents. The market management is chaotic, and different agents are treated differently. Some distribute the products for free, while others purchase at a price as low as 20 cents.

The front page headlines contain a lot of news.

The agency contract was exposed, along with a photo of a pig eating canned food.

A can of food costing 25 cents is used as feed for pigs, and they gain five pounds in three days. The possibility that the can of food contains excessive saccharin cannot be ruled out.

The report caused an uproar.

The purchase price of canned food is only 20 cents, which means that the merchants make at least 20 cents. So how much is the production cost, 10 cents? How many cents?

Can this canned food be eaten?

A pig gained five kilograms in three days after eating it. What would happen if a human ate it?

Canned fruit is so cheap, what about other canned foods? The lead singer of the band Scarecrow was hospitalized after eating it, so you can imagine what inferior ingredients are used in canned meat.

On the same day, the relevant departments went to Qiao Laosan’s factory and demanded that it stop production for inspection.

As soon as the news of suspension of production for inspection came out, everything turned into something serious.

Some consumers who had eaten Samsung canned food and had just gained weight started to make a fuss and demand compensation. Major merchants who had purchased other canned food from Zhenbang began to demand returns. They refused to pay the profits from the canned fruit sales to Zhenbang Company, and demanded that Zhenbang pay liquidated damages on the grounds that production had been stopped and supply could not be made.

The entire Zhenbang office building was in an uproar.

The phone calls kept coming, the explanations kept coming...

Useless.

The Scarecrow band is extremely popular right now, can this matter be suppressed?

What's more, there is Zhou Qi, the mastermind behind the scenes.

Zhang Erdan, Li Dachui, Wang Sanxia...

These names, which once moved Qiao Laosan deeply, made him burst into tears this time.

He had received payment for the goods before, but now he is unable to supply the remaining quantity.

The complaint for breach of contract was placed directly on his desk, amounting to 320,000 yuan.

Everything happened too suddenly, and he was completely unprepared. The situation kept snowballing and he had no idea how to solve it.

He simply couldn't afford the 320,000 yuan penalty.

The funds from the canned fruit products sold could not be recovered, and other canners demanded returns. The factory was forced to suspend production. Mr. Xiang said he would give him one million yuan, but did he dare to really take it?

Qiao Laosan felt like he was surrounded by a group of wild beasts with bared fangs and claws.

Everyone wanted to bite him hard.
