Chapter 717 Jianlibao was sold at a low price [asking for monthly votes]

In Lu Yiming's villa, Lu Yiming and Shi Jinhua were eating on the viewing balcony. Lu Yiming asked the chef to cook everything they ate.

This actually made Lu Yiming think of something, that is, as the richest man in Asia, it is really outrageous that he does not have his own chef team.

But there is nothing that can be done about it. After all, he is studying in college outside and traveling around. It is impossible to ask a team of chefs to cook in the school.

That's too outrageous.

However, now that I have graduated from college, I can consider this issue.

Like today, inviting Shi Jinhua to dinner is not suitable for showing off in a hotel, so you can invite him to his home and let the chef cook.

In fact, many rich people do this.

Facing Lu Yiming with a leisurely expression, Shi Jinhua smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. Lu, you always say you are merciful and lenient. It's just a small conflict. Why do you have to make such a big fuss?"

Although Lu Yiming is the richest man in Asia, the value he has brought to Baiyun City, Guangdong Province and even the entire country is immeasurable. But Wuji is also a large taxpayer. For the government, the palms and backs of these hands are full of flesh, so everyone can be harmonious

Isn’t it good to work hard to make money and pay more taxes?

Lu Yiming poured a glass of red wine for Shi Jinhua and argued: "Director Shi, you see what you said is not truthful. Are you saying that it was me who caused this matter? Wasn't that brat looking for gossip newspapers to make a fool of himself?

Write, include the whole family?"

Shi Jinhua criticized Lu Yiming's statement. If Lu Yiming hadn't had to slap people in public, none of these things would have happened, right?

Lu Yiming's investment in Guangdong Province has exceeded 30 billion, especially the Future Capital Headquarters Building, which is currently under construction. It is currently the tallest building in Baiyun City and a future landmark building.

Shi Jinhua did not dare to offend such a benefactor father, so he could only mutter a few words in his heart.

But Shi Jinhua still couldn't help but said: "Mr. Lu, the only person who offended you is Liu Fanhui. There are thousands of employees in Wuji Group. They have not offended you. There is no need to destroy their jobs as well."

Is that right? If one person makes a fuss, many people will die."

Unemployment is an unbearable burden for many ordinary working families.

Maybe a few hundred yuan in salary is the life-saving straw that their family relies on to make a living.

Once this life-saving straw is lost, irreparable tragedies may occur to many families.

The old god Lu Yiming said on the ground: "Director Shi, you actually know whether the so-called health products sold by Wuji Group are useful or not. I have no guilt at all for bringing down such a company. As for those who have done so,

And the unemployed employees, to be honest, have nothing to do with me."

When Shi Jinhua heard this, he couldn't help but frown slightly, and just as he was about to speak, Lu Yiming continued: "But, I am a kind-hearted person, and I can agree to help clean up the mess left by Liu Zongguang after the bankruptcy of Wuji Group.

As long as the original employees obey management, I don't have to fire them."

At this moment, Shi Jinhua had no idea what Lu Yiming was going to do. But since Lu Yiming said that these employees could be retained, Shi Jinhua breathed a sigh of relief and confirmed: "Is what you said true?"

Lu Yiming said calmly: "Once I say something, it's hard to follow."

After Lu Yiming's repeated confirmation, Shi Jinhua's psychological burden was gone. After all, the livelihood of thousands of employees is not a trivial matter. If anything goes wrong, it will be a disaster.

However, Shi Jinhua immediately remembered something again and said doubtfully: "Mr. Lu, please forgive me, there is no limit to what you can do. You also said that after he goes bankrupt, all his employees will be retained. Do you also want to sell health products?"

If that's the case, then everything makes sense.

Why did Lu Yiming make such a fuss for no reason? The root cause was that he was interested in Wuji and wanted to use this method to bring down Wuji and win the company at the lowest price.

However, there are also bugs in this. Now that this is done, the Unlimited brand will be ruined. So what is the point of Lu Yiming taking over?

Facing Shi Jinhua's slightly weird look, Lu Yiming quickly clarified: "No, no, no, I don't sell health care products, and I will never do such things as defrauding grandparents from their pension money and life-saving money. There are no outsiders today."

If you are here, let me tell you something. I plan to sell energy drinks."

"Energy drink? What is that?"

Shi Jinhua can understand "function" and also knows "beverage", but he is really confused about what this functional drink is.

Lu Yiming said nonsense: "Traditional drinks mainly taste good. For example, Coca-Cola, which is sold all over the world, is a carbonated drink that is very popular with the public. But this kind of drink is not healthy, it is like fried garbage.

Just like food, drinking too much can cause problems for the body."

"Functional drinks are different. They are positioned as healthy. By adjusting the composition and content ratio of nutrients in the drinks, they can regulate human body functions to a certain extent. For example, Red Bull, this company's product is an energy drink. It is said that drinking it can help people

Resist fatigue and replenish physical strength.”

Of course Shi Jinhua has heard of the Red Bull Group. The Red Bull Group, with annual sales of 22.815 billion yuan in 2020, is just an ordinary beverage company opened in Pengcheng. Among a bunch of big players in the beverage industry, it is not at all

Inconspicuous, just like a gangster.

The only thing that makes a slight impression is that the founder of Red Bull borrowed money and spent hundreds of millions on publicity.

This time, Lu Yiming was clearly prepared for the acquisition of Wuji Group: Wuji Group's production lines were originally dedicated to the production of beverages. With a slight adjustment to the production line, they can be used to produce new products at any time.

Shi Jinhua asked Lu Yiming excitedly: "Is this going to build Wuji Group into another Jianlibao?"

Jianlibao was born in 1984. It became an instant hit after the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics and was known as the "Xia Kingdom Magic Water." As the first drink in Xia Kingdom to add alkaline electrolytes, Jianlibao was the first to introduce the concept of sports drinks. In 1997,

Sales reached 5.4 billion, ranking first in the beverage industry.

Facing Shi Jinhua's comparison with Jianlibao, Lu Yiming was not polite and said calmly: "This is considered a small goal in the first stage."

Good guy, is this just a small goal in the first stage?

That's Jianlibao, not some trash company like Cats and Dogs.

But Lu Yiming's words were arrogant, but Shi Jinhua did not doubt whether he could really do it. After all, the person who said these words was the youngest richest man in Asia in history.

"Okay, I will report to the superiors for you in a moment!"

Originally, Lu Yiming wanted to bring down the Wuji Group, but many people were definitely not happy. Not to mention the incense left by the Liu family's ancestors, no one wanted to see such a large group with 70,000 to 80,000 employees.

Bankruptcy.

Seventy or eighty thousand people are unemployed. This is no small matter.

Therefore, no matter how hard Lu Yiming spends, he can at most give the Liu family a small punishment or a big warning. It is basically impossible to "destroy" the Liu family.

However, now, with the functional drink project launched by Lu Yiming, the situation is very different.

Become the second Jianlibao!

Obviously, Lu Yiming's proposal is too tempting.

After dinner, as soon as Lu Yiming sent Shi Jinhua away, Li Yiwen suddenly appeared in Lu Yiming's villa.

"Have you heard about Jianlibao?"

Lu Yiming couldn't help but widen his eyes.

I've never heard of cousins ​​being able to communicate with each other.

"What happened to Jianlibao?"

In 1984, Li Jingwei, director of Sanshui Winery in Sanshui County, obtained a new sports drink formula and launched the "Jianlibao" beverage brand. Jianlibao became the drink of choice for the Olympic delegation and was hailed as the "Chinese Magic Water" by the island media.

In 1987, Guangdong Jianlibao Co., Ltd. was established. Jianlibao became the largest sponsor of the National Games that year and became famous.

In 1991, Jianlibao established a branch in the United States to promote Jianlibao drinks throughout the United States, and spent huge sums of money to purchase an entire floor of the Empire State Building in New York.

In 1997, the 38-story Jianlibao Building was completed and the Jianlibao headquarters moved to Baiyun City. Product sales exceeded the 5 billion yuan mark. In April, Jianlibao was rated as one of the first batch of "National Well-known Trademarks" by the State Administration for Industry and Commerce.

In August, the National Beverage Association released industry data, and Jianlibao ranked first in four categories: output, total output value, sales revenue and tax profits.

In the autumn of 1997, when the plan to list Jianlibao on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange was about to be approved, the Sanshui government refused to approve the management team's purchase of stocks on the grounds that "it does not have a Hong Kong temporary residence permit and is therefore not allowed to purchase original H shares." Li Jingwei was furious.

Next, give up listing.

In 1999, Li Jingwei proposed a plan to implement an employee stock cooperative system within the company. The management would use 450 million yuan of its own funds to buy out the shares held by the government. The plan was rejected by the government.

In 2001, Jianlibao's operating performance dropped to 3.1 billion yuan, and the profits and taxes paid to the government also dropped from 100 million yuan to about 20 million yuan. In July, the Sanshui government held a joint meeting on the restructuring of Jianlibao, and 90% of the officials attending the meeting advocated selling Jianlibao.

, but it cannot be sold to Li Jingwei’s team.

On January 15, 2002, the Sanshui government transferred 75% of Jianlibao's shares to Zhejiang State Investment Corporation for a price of 338 million yuan, and 28-year-old Zhang Hai became the chairman of the group.

When he was a child, Lu Yiming could be said to have grown up drinking Jianlibao, but after entering the 21st century, Jianlibao seemed to have disappeared from the shelves.

It has to be said that the fate of Jianlibao is disappointing.

Li Yiwen said: "Those people who sell Jianlibao back and forth have no idea what it means. This is obviously going to ruin Jianlibao!"

He also grew up drinking Jianlibao, and it can be said that he has a deep affection for Jianlibao.

As an oriental magic water, Jianlibao is far more than a simple drink in the Xia Kingdom of this era. It also represents the "dream of a great country" in the hearts of many Xia people.

This is a drink of Xia people, and it is no worse than any foreign drinks!

But just such a company, which had entrusted the dreams of countless Xia people, collapsed at its most glorious moment.

Now it is being sold openly at a low price!

What made Li Yiwen even more angry was another reason.

"Do you know what that Zhang Hai is?"

Lu Yiming shook his head slightly.
