Chapter 66 The First Contact
Chapter 66 First Contact
Jiajiale (supermarket) acted very quickly. By the time people from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau and the police arrived at the scene, the fake wine on the shelves had already been replaced by other varieties.
There are a total of fifteen stores, all with this kind of scene. I asked the store manager to ask questions, and the answers were all the same. The company informed me that it would be removed from the shelves, and all the Yilite songs had been shipped away.
"Let your person in charge come..."
The people from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau and the police had no choice but to call the person in charge of the company for questioning.
Qi Jun came to the largest store with confidence, and asked the other party, just one sentence: This batch of Yilitqu was not easy to sell, and not one bottle was sold, so the company returned it. Who is it? The supplier's name is Guo Wenyi. I don't believe it.
You go find him.
Guo Wenyi is the person who provided the fake wine to Jiajiale (supermarket), and he is the same person as the supplier of Yibaijia.
The people from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau and the police asked Qi Jun to take them to the supermarket warehouse, but they did not find the suspicious batch of Yilitqu.
The two brothers Qi Bin and Qi Jun have been involved in society since their early years and have extremely rich social experience. Without evidence, there is no way to pry open the mouths of such people.
Therefore, this joint action can only go so far for the time being.
It was during lunch that Hu Yang got the news from Lin Xiangjun.
"Currently, the whole city has begun to investigate this kind of counterfeit wine, and there have been no reports of serious consequences yet. Our director said that this time, it is all thanks to the Yibai family. If you hadn't taken the initiative to report the case, this kind of thing would have been allowed to happen.
If counterfeit wine continues to be sold, people may die."
After Lin Xiangjun finished his meal, he went out and made at least five phone calls.
Facts have proved that Populus euphratica's concerns are justified. Only early detection and early investigation of this highly harmful counterfeit wine can minimize losses.
While conducting a large-scale investigation of counterfeit wine, the police also began to concentrate their police forces on detecting this case of "manufacturing and selling counterfeit wine." However, for the time being, no clues have been found.
Guo Wenyi, who was in charge of sales, seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. The other members of the gang had no contact with the outside world, and the case reached a deadlock for a while.
Separating from Lin Xiangjun, Hu Yang returned home a little depressed.
In any case, Jiajiale (supermarket) escaped the disaster.
Of course, he does not regret his choice. In order to defeat his competitors and let innocent people suffer heavy losses, that is not his principle of doing things.
"Okay, you should do your own thing. Rivals like the Qi brothers who only compete maliciously are really not in my eyes, Populus Hu."
It’s not that Hu Yang looks down on Qi Bin and Qi Jun. These two brothers started their careers in a different way and always want to take shortcuts in doing things. The question is, are there really so many shortcuts in this world?
People who always want to take shortcuts will go astray. If they are used in business, they will die ugly sooner or later.
Putting aside all the distracting thoughts in his mind, Hu Yang took a nap for about forty minutes, and then he was woken up by multiple phone calls.
In such a short period of time, Li Hao, Fei Zhijun and Wu Maosheng all called him.
Hu Yang had no choice but to come to Jianye Building again.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Wang Mu, and I am the director of the investment and financing department of Xijiang Youyi Shopping Mall Co., Ltd. I took the liberty to come here today because I want to contact you. Our company has the intention to acquire Yibaijia (chain)."
The representative of Xijiang friendship arrived unexpectedly, much earlier than Hu Yang expected.
Wang Mu only brought one subordinate, but from the Yibai family, everyone from Hu Yang to Li Hao, Fei Zhijun, and Wu Maosheng participated in the talks.
Li Hao and others looked at Hu Yang, not knowing how to answer this topic.
To put it bluntly, Hu Yang is the major shareholder of Yibaijia (chain). When it comes to major matters such as changes in equity, you must first listen to his opinion.
Hu Yang smiled and said: "I have always maintained an open attitude towards the company's ability to introduce new investors with strength and management experience. However, this kind of investment has a prerequisite, that is, it cannot change the existing equity structure.
.As I said before, I have no intention of selling Yibaijia."
Wang Mu looked at Hu Yang in surprise and thought to himself, he hadn't put forward any conditions yet, so why did he rashly draw the bottom line?
"Mr. Hu, in fact, controlling rights are not that important, right? The development of a company is to make it bigger and stronger, and introducing powerful shareholders will be very beneficial to achieving this goal. But if you always hold on to the controlling rights and never let go,
If I say something that offends you, I'm afraid my future achievements will be limited."
Wang Mu’s theory cannot be said to be wrong. Enlarging the cake will certainly bring absolute benefits.
Hu Yang did not dwell on this issue, but said: "Minister Wang, if we are willing to give up our controlling rights, what kind of conditions can you offer?"
When Wang Mu heard this, he immediately became energetic. He knew that the other party's psychological defenses were already showing signs of loosening, so he said: "Mr. Hu, our Mr. Zhang appreciates you very much. Before he came, he specifically told you that the purchase price would never be higher than yours."
At a loss. In this way, I will make a plan first, and we will talk about the details later. Our current valuation of Yibaijia (chain) is 6 million yuan, and we are willing to invest 6 million yuan, hoping to obtain 50% of your company's equity
Equity.”
After saying this, the conference room fell silent.
Even Hu Yang did not expect Xijiang Friendship to be so generous. He gave Yibaijia a valuation of 6 million yuan at the beginning of the negotiation. You know, the current net worth of Yibaijia is less than 3 million yuan.
However, in Hu Yang's mind, this price is far from enough. Starting from the mid-1990s, especially into the late 1990s, both large supermarkets and community chain supermarkets will enter a period of rapid development.
This period will also be a golden opportunity period for Yibaijia (chain). If you sell the company's equity now at a low price, everyone will regret it later.
"Minister Wang, I see your sincerity. However, this valuation is quite different from my expectations. How about this? Let's make a careful calculation and find time to discuss later. What do you think?"
Hu Yang didn't want to waste time, so he also informed Wang Mu.
"Haha, that's a bit of a pity. I thought the differences between us wouldn't be too big. Mr. Hu, it's okay to talk about it later when we find time, but there are some things that if you miss it, there won't be that store in this village. Are you really
Don’t you think about the conditions I just gave? To be honest, if the conditions were exactly the same and given to Jiajiale (supermarket), they might have signed the contract in a hurry..."
Before Wang Mu went out, he made a joke that was not a joke, whether intentionally or unintentionally.
Hu Yang smiled and said nothing, watching Fei Zhijun send the guests out.
"What did he mean by his last words? He wanted to use Jiajiale (supermarket) to suppress us."
Li Hao had a look of hesitation on his face, feeling that Xijiang Friendship was a bit overwhelming.
