Chapter 1126: A new round of expansion

Views:

Qiu Zelin thought for a while, and said to Chen Mu and Li Chenfan: "Mr. Chen, we Mighty Men really want to cooperate with you very sincerely, but your conditions are really... Sigh, I don't know if there is any discussion here. leeway?"

Li Chenfan shook his head directly: "Mr. Qiu, what I just said is our bottom line. We can talk about other things, but these few things cannot be changed."

Qiu Zelin had nothing to say.

Mucheng Pharmaceutical was blocking the road, so he really couldn't say anything.

On the other side, Chen Mu and Young Master Li looked at each other, exchanged a few pleasantries, and quickly bid farewell.

In fact, Chen Mu and Li Chenfan came here today to set out the conditions and see how the other party will respond.

In fact, the moment they figured out the opponent's routine, they had already grasped the initiative of the whole matter. It didn't matter whether the mighty man was setting them up or not.

However, he also wants to see whether the mighty man is "loyal" or "traitorous". If the other party really wants to cooperate with them and wants the US agency, some things can be discussed slowly and try to come up with a mutually acceptable result. .

After all, Mighty Men is a big player in the industry, one of the top 500 in the world, and they are the best choice to promote Yangming Pills, which is the fastest way to increase sales of Yangming Pills and increase brand value.

From this point of view, Chen Mu and Li Chenfan did not resist cooperating with Mighty Men.

However, if the mighty man had other ideas, like the worst results that Liu Hui had analyzed for them before, they could only let it go.

After leaving the hotel, Chen Mu said to Young Master Li: "It seems that they don't really want to cooperate with us. Old Liu guessed right."

Young Master Li nodded: "It's okay, without them, we still don't know the method and way to push our products to the United States. Although these days have been a lot of tossing, it's a good thing, and the tossing is not in vain."

The two looked at each other with a smile, and went back to the pharmaceutical factory shoulder to shoulder.

Inside the hotel, Qiu Zelin looked at the backs of Chen Mu and Young Master Li with gloomy eyes.

When meeting Chen Mu and Young Master Li before, he would personally go out of the hotel gate to greet them and send them out, but today...he really wasn't in the mood.

The person who gave it away was the marketing director and others under him. He stood by the window of the restaurant and watched Chen Mu and Young Master Li leave.

The way the two of them talked intimately was all in his eyes, which made him inexplicably angry and unable to suppress it.

The secretary asked: "Mr. Qiu, what should we do next?"

After a slight pause, he said again: "The headquarters has been urging for the past few days, and now things have turned out like this...how do we explain?"

"Confession? What is there to explain?"

Qiu Zelin's gaze stayed outside the window, and he said, "You prepare a report, write down the whole thing, and just send it to Stephen."

"Write it straight?"

The secretary asked cautiously.

Qiu Zelin nodded: "Write directly!"

After a slight pause, he seemed worried that the secretary wouldn't understand what he said, and added: "No embellishment, just write down everything."

"Okay, Mr. Qiu."

The secretary nodded, with a little doubt in his eyes.

He didn't understand why his boss did this, but he knew his boss's temper. If he wasn't very sure, he wouldn't order him like this. He can only say that his rank is not enough, so he can't see many things clearly.

Qiu Zelin fell silent, thinking a lot in his heart.

What happened this time was a plan made by the headquarter of Mighty Men. Not many people knew the details of the plan. Except for the people in the headquarter, only the president Stephen and him were the only two people in the Xiaguo District.

Even the director of marketing and the chief financial officer were just accompanied by orders, thinking that they were just here to discuss agency rights, and they didn't know the whole plan.

Because of the need to keep it secret, Qiu Zelin couldn't tell them clearly, even his closest secretary couldn't know what he was thinking.

This time, what Mighty Man wants is not just the US agency rights of Mucheng Pharmaceutical.

They want to get the formula of Yangming Pill from Mucheng Pharmaceutical.

Because they found that there is an active substance in Yangming Pills, which really has a very magical "curative effect", which can slow down aging and restore body functions.

This substance, at the genetic level, can keep the telomeres of human DNA healthy, and can slow down and shorten the length of telomeres.

Telomeres are "caps" at the ends of DNA strands that are created with the help of telomerase.

It protects the chromosomes of human cells, and in normal cells, telomeres get a little shorter each time a cell divides to replicate DNA.

When telomeres become too short, cells can no longer reproduce, leading to aging and death.

The role of Yangming Pills seems to be to activate telomerase, which slows down the shortening of telomeres, so that cells can continue to replicate, and body functions can naturally regain vitality to a certain extent.

As a leader in the health care and pharmaceutical industry, Wittman Men has not been complacent all along. They will always pay attention to the new health care medicines that appear all over the world, especially those hot medicines.

Through research and analysis of these medicines, find their "secrets" and apply them to their own products.

When encountering some drugs that are easy to copy, they will directly produce similar products, and use the brand advantage and stronger strength of Mighty Men to seize the market.

When they encounter something that is not easy to copy, they will find a way to buy it, or take the drug into their pockets in other ways, so as to turn it into their own product.

The action against Mucheng Pharmaceutical this time belongs to the latter.

Originally, they thought that they would obtain the agency right of Mucheng Pharmaceutical at an extremely high price. I believed that this fledgling pharmaceutical company would not be vigilant.

Then, through various "legal and compliant" operations, they can slowly obtain the "secret" of Yangmingwan in the following years, but they didn't expect that things were stuck from the very beginning.

Qiu Zelin had a bad premonition. He felt that Chen Mu and Young Master Li didn't simply think that the conditions offered by the mighty man were not good, but they were already alert to what the mighty man wanted to do.

If his premonition is correct, then the Mighty Man has already alarmed the enemy, and it will be very difficult to think about what to do next.

After Chen Mu and Young Master Li's car drove away from the hotel and were completely out of sight, Qiu Zelin turned around and walked back to the room.

He was going to make a call to the headquarters and report on what happened these days.

The report sent by the secretary is only written, and it is for other people in the company who don't know.

After all, Mighty Man is a listed company, and many things need to leave a document memo for consultation.

As for some of the plans hidden inside, he needs to give an oral report to the headquarters.

When Chen Mu and Young Master Li returned to the pharmaceutical factory, they quickly put things aside and got busy.

Young Master Li is busy with the pharmaceutical factory. After the launch of the two products of Mrs. Yangyan Dan and Children's Healthy Drink, the response has been very good from the very beginning, and orders continue to flow. It seems that they will be two hot spots in the market again. product.

In fact, it does not mean that the sales of this new drug will become so good after it is launched. It is just that after the brand of Mucheng Pharmaceutical is established, agents and distributors from all over the country are very optimistic, so when purchasing, they spend a lot of money. It was the one who waved the banknotes and came to get the goods.

After all, the previous anti-alcoholic medicines, Yangyuan health-preserving medicines and Yangming pills were all selling well. In the end, even because of the insufficient production capacity of the pharmaceutical factory, there was a situation that they could not get the goods even if they paid.

Therefore, this made the pharmaceutical factory unintentionally create a little hunger marketing effect. In view of the previous experience, those agents and distributors are willing to give more money and get more goods, and stock up the goods first. In order to avoid the time when the product is hot but can't get it.

What Young Master Li is busy with is assembling the new production line.

During this period of time, after spending a lot of money to speed up, several new production lines have arrived at the pharmaceutical factory, and the engineers of the other party are currently helping to assemble and debug.

Although the factory already has a person in charge of technology watching, but the production line is too important to the pharmaceutical factory, Young Master Li thinks it is better to watch it himself, so he basically follows from the beginning to the end.

To be honest, Chen Mu has never seen Master Li do one thing so hard.

From a feeling, the success of the pharmaceutical factory has really given him blood, and he is full of fighting spirit every day.

Sure enough, as a certain chicken soup book said, there are no lazy people in this world, it just depends on whether this person has found his real goal.

But Chen Mu ignored the matter of the pharmaceutical factory. After leaving the pharmaceutical factory, he went directly to Hengmei Building.

Recently, Xiaoer Fresh Vegetables has opened more than 100 stores, and is working hard to consolidate the operating foundation of the five-city business district.

There are many tedious things involved, and Hu Jiran leads the whole team to be busy day and night.

Of course, the results are also gratifying. The marketing of each store of Xiao Er Xian Vegetable is basically higher than expected, basically reaching a scale of about 8,000 yuan per square meter from the very beginning.

With the precipitation of time, the scale of such marketing will become higher and higher. Now the highest store is in Kangzhou, which can basically reach 50,000 yuan per square meter.

Such income is enough to support the survival and operation of the store.

It's just that at the moment, what Xiaoer Fresh Vegetables needs is continuous expansion, and it shows the appearance of a gold-swallowing beast, so the financial report does not look good.

At the previous quarterly shareholder meeting, Hu already explained the current business situation to the shareholders of Xiaoer Fresh Vegetables.

The meeting at that time was conducted in the form of video conference, and Hu already proposed to start the second round of financing.

The first round of financing has just been completed, and it hasn't been long before the second round is coming, and the shareholders are a little confused.

Moreover, the financing scale proposed by Hu already was 1.2 billion.

"With these 1.2 billion, we should be able to build at least ten more production bases, enough to cover most of the coastal areas, southeast and northeast cities, and the central and northwest regions can also be covered to a certain extent..."

Hu Jiran said so at the meeting.

But after hearing Hu Weiran's words, Jinhui immediately raised a question: "The financing is so frequent and the amount is so high, which means that you are burning money too fast. I really can't imagine how many rounds you will have to go through after that Only by raising funds can things be done... The key is that the price-to-earnings ratio is so high that if you want an IPO in the future, it will become very difficult.”

The video conference ended quickly, and it was a bit of a waste of time.

Chen Mu didn't say much, just listened quietly.

He supports whatever Hu Weiran wants to do. Basically, as long as Hu Weiran can raise financing himself, Jinhui and the others cannot interfere with the company's operations.

It's just that if you want this round of investment to be successful, it's best to get the support of Jinhui and the others. After all, they are members of the capital circle, have a wider network, and can bring in more funds.

Hu Weiran had already called Chen Mu a few times before, saying that he wanted to have a face-to-face chat with him, but Chen Mu had been busy with the affairs of the pharmaceutical factory, so he didn't go there, and authorized Hu Weiran to make decisions on his own.

To put it bluntly, he is the chairman, and Hu Weiran is still in charge of the company's specific operations.

Now that the affairs of the pharmaceutical factory are over, he can finally spare some time and go to Xiaoer Fresh Vegetables to have a look.

"Boss, you are finally here."

As soon as he saw Chen Mu, Hu Jiran couldn't help showing an expression of anticipation when he saw his father.

Chen Mu curled his lips and said, "Tsk, don't look at me with such eyes, it makes me feel scared."

Hu Weiran hurriedly invited the boss into the office, then rubbed his hands together and said, "Boss, you have to help me with the financing. As long as this round of financing is completed, the shortcomings of our Xiao Er Xianshu will be fully complemented." gone."

After a slight pause, he added: "Because we cover too few cities, there are still shortcomings in our sales model, but as long as we can fully spread out, everything will be different. In the future, we will be in the field of fresh vegetables. Don't be afraid of anyone."

"How can I help you?"

Chen Mu blinked.

Hu Weiran said: "You have to accompany me to the Binhai."

"Um?"

Chen Mu frowned slightly: "Why go to Binhai?"

"Go to Binhai to meet several investment companies, they are very interested in our round of financing."

Hu Jiran smiled flatteringly at Chen Mu, and said, "They all said they wanted to meet Ning very much, and hoped that Ning could go there."

"Meet me?"

Chen Mu was a little surprised, he didn't expect that he was actually well-known in the investment circle.

Hu Weiran said: "Boss, I can't control the place alone, you have to go and see it with me. After all, this is Ning's business, and Ning can't just ignore it."

After thinking about it, Chen Mu asked, "When?"

Hu Jiran said: "It's about a week later."

Chen Mu nodded helplessly: "Okay, then I'll go home first, alas, I haven't been home for a long time, please remind me when I am leaving."

"OK!"

Hu already showed a satisfied smile.

Chen Mu asked about Xiao Er Xian Vegetable's situation, and quickly left Xiao Er Xian Vegetable's headquarters.

He has not been home for many days, and he is already a little homesick.
