Rebirth 1990: The beginning is sweet and cool Bai Yueguang

I can invest hundreds of millions of yuan at will, even if it is idle. Do these "old-fashioned people" in the mainland have such courage? "

"I'm here to sweep the auction this time. If Hualong dares to challenge me, let them see my true strength!"

The auction was held in a luxury hotel in Shanghai on the day of the auction. Different from the serious atmosphere in the past, it was more like a social gathering.

When Zhou Qi brought Qiao Xueying and Zhou Qinghong into the venue, they found that many people had already arrived.

People from all walks of life gathered together to exchange feelings or discuss business, and the whole scene was very lively.

Among them, Du Yangqiu, the once-powerful head of Huaning Electric Appliances, and his son Du Renliang were also in the crowd.

As Huaning's market share continues to shrink, Du Yangqiu's influence in Shanghai's business community is no longer as great as before and has almost reached rock bottom.

He used to be so popular, but now he is the one being ignored. He shuttled among the crowd with a forced smile on his face, looking particularly lonely.

At this time, Zhou Qi appeared with two people.

Du Renliang was the first one to see him. He was stunned for a moment, then his eyes turned cold and his whole body exuded an aura of resentment.

He came here with his father today, originally wanting to look for new opportunities, but things went wrong, and it all seemed to be related to Zhou Qi.

Noticing his son's mood change, Du Yangqiu followed his gaze and saw Zhou Qi and his group coming. He hesitated for a while, but still walked towards Zhou Qi.

"Mr. Zhou, congratulations to Hualong Electric for becoming the number one brand in China. Xilin has withdrawn from the market, and you have fought a great battle." Du Yangqiu said.

Zhou Qi showed no hostility towards Du Yangqiu. "Although your congratulations sound a bit forced, thank you anyway," he said.

Du Yangqiu smiled bitterly and responded: "To be honest, when Hualong and Xilin were competing, I also considered taking the opportunity to expand."

"Luckily, you didn't do that." Zhou Qi looked at him and said, "Are you confessing to me?"

Du Yangqiu shook his head and said, "I know that Huaning has no chance, and you will let Huaning continue to exist, so I decided to completely withdraw from the electrical appliance industry."

"Boss Du, there's no need to be so pessimistic." Zhou Qi said calmly, "When Pang Yulin came to me to discuss cooperation, I told him that whether it's Xilin or Huaning, Hualong never regards you as a real rival. As long as you develop quietly, we won't interfere."

Du Yangqiu felt a little embarrassed, but he knew that what Zhou Qi said was true. After a moment of silence, he asked, "Mr. Zhou, since Hua Ning has failed, I have a question that has been puzzled for a long time. Can you tell me the answer?"

"Please ask." Zhou Qi replied.

Du Yangqiu frowned: "How did you affect our logistics channels? When we needed it most, there was a problem with logistics, which directly led to the rapid decline of Huaning."

"Because SF Express freight is my industry." Zhou Qi answered briefly.

Du Yangqiu was shocked when he heard this, and then he could only laugh helplessly. It turned out that he had been competing with someone whose strength was far beyond his imagination. This made him feel ridiculous and shocked by Zhou Qi's strength.

"I understand now." Du Yangqiu said in a low voice.

Zhou Qi shook his head slightly and said, "You may not fully understand it yet."

"Do you think Huaning's failure was simply due to distribution issues?" he asked.

Du Yangqiu thought for a moment and replied, "The capital chain is also a big problem."

Zhou Qi sighed, "Even without Hua Long's competition, Hua Ning will be eliminated."

"Why is this?" Du Yangqiu asked puzzledly.

"Do you know Xilin Company?" Zhou Qi asked back.

Du Yangqiu was stunned for a moment, obviously the name touched him.

Zhou Qi continued, "Perhaps you have studied them, but it seems that you have not learned their advantages. In my opinion, many of Xilin's practices are worth learning from Huaning. However, in terms of marketing and customer service, there is a clear gap between the two of you."

"As former rivals, this result is regrettable," Zhou Qi added.

Du Yangqiu's face became even heavier, obviously hurt by Zhou Qi's words.

At this time, Du Yangqiu's son Du Renliang couldn't help but interrupt: "Even if we defeat Xilin, so what? Is it really necessary to show off here now?"

"Shut up!" Du Yangqiu stopped his son and apologized to Zhou Qi: "Mr. Zhou, you are right. I have benefited a lot from your insights. Thank you very much."

Qiao Zhengcheng showed up at the right time and interrupted the conversation. After noticing the conversation between Zhou Qi and Du Yangqiu, he suggested that everyone have a friendly exchange to prevent the situation from becoming awkward.

Du Yangqiu then politely said goodbye and left with his son, although Du Renliang still glared at Zhou Qi unwillingly before leaving.

After the Du family father and son left, Qiao Zhengcheng turned to Zhou Qi and smiled, "Xiao Zhou, I really owe everything to you. Why don't you come to my house for dinner tonight to show your gratitude?"

Before Zhou Qi responded, Qiao Xueying rejected the invitation first. She knew that mentioning her stepmother made her feel uncomfortable, not to mention that at this critical moment, time was precious and there was no time to be distracted.

Faced with his daughter's direct rejection, Qiao Zhengcheng seemed a little embarrassed.

Zhou Qi tried to ease the atmosphere: "Mr. Qiao, this trip is very tight, and there are auctions waiting for us. If we can successfully get the target project, there will be a lot of work to do.

And Xueying has been under a lot of pressure recently. The auction is about to start, and she is also very nervous. Please understand. "

Hearing this, Qiao Zhengcheng was surprised: "You plan to participate in real estate auctions? I thought you only do home appliance business."

"Is it not possible?" Qiao Xueying asked back, "Our electrical appliances are already all over the country. If we don't even dare to participate in real estate auctions, how can we expect others to give us land for free?"

Her words were sharp and had a hint of arrogance.

She was once the canary in her father Qiao Zhengcheng's eyes, but this was exactly what she hated the most.

"Xueying!" Qiao Zhengcheng sighed and looked at his daughter helplessly.

Although he knew in his heart that his daughter's status in the business world had long surpassed his own.

The development speed of Hualong Group is astonishing and its reputation is well-known to everyone.

“While we do do well in appliances, real estate is a different game and can’t be played the same way.”

"How much do you know about this auction?" He continued, "I heard that Tang Group from Hong Kong City is also going to participate. Everyone is talking about it. In fact, it's almost like they are at home, and the other participants are just supporting roles."

"In terms of funding and strength, there is a huge gap between us and them. How can we win?" Qiao Zhengcheng's words were full of respect for the wealthy families in Hong Kong.
