Extraordinary Genius
Chapter 819 - BML
Lin Qishu opened his eyes wide. Mr. Fengcan help Jianlibao get more attractive terms? How is he going to do it, andwhy?
"Mr. Feng, what do you want in return?" LinQishu asked.
"I am also Chinese, and Jianlibao is aChinese brand. This is my reason."
It was not as simple as what Feng Yu said.But this is the reason why Feng Yu chose to work with Jianlibao. He will wantsomething in return from this cooperation.
"Mr. Feng, there is no free lunch in thisworld. Even if Jianlibao is a Chinese brand, you must want something in returnfor helping us." Lin Qishu said.
"Since Manager Lin says this, I will tellme what I want. But after hearing my request, you will realize that Jianlibaowill be the one who stands to gain."
Lin Qishu did not say anything. He waswaiting for Feng Yu to tell him his conditions. If Feng Yu's conditions arereasonable, he will consider this proposal. But if the conditions are harsh, hewill reject it! As for buying a stake of Jianlibao, it is out of the question.The City Government will never agree!
"I want to gather all of China's topbeverage companies to form a league. Beverage Major League BML. We willcooperate and enter the overseas market together. In the overseas market,Jianlibao had achieved the best results. That's why I need Jianlibao to sharethe distribution channels."
"Impossible!" Before Feng Yu could finish,Lin Qiishu rejected.
Jianlibao had built its distributionchannels from scratch. How can they share it with others for free?
"Don't forget that the other brands alsohave their own distribution channels. We will combine all our channels together,and Jianlibao will also have access to other brands' channels. For example,Coconut Tree, Lehaha, etc. These companies owned some channels which are betterthan Jianlibao."
"But even when these companies combined,they still cannot be compared with Jianlibao. If it is only some of our distributionchannels, there is still room for discussion."
"What a joke. Other than China and the US,which Jianlibao's distribution channel is consider good? Even in China, Lehahahas better sales channels than you all. Those sales reports for the overseasmarket are all to show your leaders. How come I heard many of Jianlibao'sbranches are making losses?" Feng Yu sneered.
That's right. Jianlibao is currently soldin over 30 regions and countries. But how many of these places are profitable?Jianlibao is expanding aggressively, but they cannot use their undevelopeddistribution channels as capital. They will please their leaders when theysubmit their reports, but for other businessmen, this is a joke.
"Only when we combine the strength of allthese brands to form a powerful alliance, we will have what it takes to competewith Pepsi and Coca-Cola." Feng Yu continued.
"We can compete with them now."
"Stop fooling yourself. How much is thosetwo companies' revenue from just the US market alone? How much is Jianlibao'sglobal revenue? Without Lehaha and the other brand stopping these two companiesin China, I'm afraid these two companies will already have established controlover the Chinese beverage industry."
"Wait. Mr. Feng, I only know that you arethe owner of the Empire State Building, and I heard you are Microsoft'sshareholder and director. Even if these are true, you are also not in thebeverage business." Lin Qishu interrupted Feng Yu again.
Even if you are wealthy and areinfluential, you want me to agree to your conditions just by saying a fewwords? From what I see, it is Jianlibao who is at the losing end in thiscooperation.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you that I am alsothe main shareholder of Lehaha." Feng Yu smiled as he introduced himself.
"What?! You are the main shareholder ofLehaha? Isn't Zhong Qingxian the main shareholder of Lehaha?" Lin Qishu wa.s.surprised. You are the main shareholder, and you let a minor shareholder runthe company?
"Do I need to lie to you over such trivialmatter?" Feng Yu replied casually.
Trivial matter? We are talking aboutLehaha. The fastest-growing beverage company in recent years. If you are themain shareholder, you should own more than 30% of the shares. This isconsidered trivial to Feng Yu?
But Feng Yu can acquire the Empire StateBuilding and is also a shareholder of Microsoft. This is indeed a trivialmatter to him.
"I think you should discuss with Li Jingweiand let him make the decision. I have already asked Zhong Qingxian to contactthe other beverage companies in China. We will join forces to increase our compet.i.tivenessagainst those two beverage giants. Just Jianlibao alone is not enough.Jianlibao only has one product and this is your disadvantage!"
Lin Qishu also knows about this. Li Jingweihad instructed him to let the US branch develop new products. But whenever hisR&D has some ideas, some other company will be a step ahead of them.
Jianlibao had wanted to introduce tea beveragesin the US. But since Lehaha, China's top tea beverage company had approachedthem to cooperate, it will be troublesome for them to introduce tea beverages.What if Lehaha decided to compete with them and let the American brands takeadvantage of their in-fighting?
Lin Qishu thought for a while and said."Mr. Feng, I will speak to Manager Li first. We will discuss after Manager Limakes his decision. How can you be so sure that Jianlibao can get attractiveterms when we enter the major supermarket chains?"
"You all wanted to enter the supermarketchains, but you only have one product. The supermarkets will not be bothered withyou. But if we sell Chinese food and beverages, we will have more variety thanPepsi and Coca-Cola. We will be able to occupy the whole shelf. This way, wewill have more advantages when we negotiate with the supermarkets."
"Also, I have some connections with themajor supermarket chains. I can get better terms than you all. I dare toguarantee that the terms offered to us will be equivalent or even better thanthose two cola companies." Feng Yu replied confidently.
Feng Yu was not boasting. Wind and Rain,Aiwa products are all selling in the major supermarket chains. His products arealso selling well there.
Feng Yu only need to reveal that he is theowner of these two brands, and the boss of supermarket chains will be more thanwilling to speak to him.
Feng Yu will use Jianlibao as the mainproduct and the rest of the Chinese food and beverages as support to negotiatewith the bosses.
Feng Yu felt that some Chinese productsmight be successful in the US. For instance, sausage ham. This should be apopular product with the Americans.
Lin Qishu was excited when he heard FengYu's promise. If Feng Yu can get attractive terms from the supermarkets,Jianlibao's sales will reach a new peak!
Li Jingwen will also be impressed with LinQishu's performance. When Jianlibao is listed, Lin Qishu might get more sharesof the company!
This BML must go through!
