Finally, the company's second-in-command had no choice but to call headquarters for help.
The president of the company, who was far away at the headquarters in Japan, was stunned when he heard the news. No, Yamamoto Jiro, you bastard, it's enough that you do the sexual harassment in Japan, why did you come to China to do the same?
And he even got arrested. It's so embarrassing. How could anyone be so stupid?
The president was so angry his teeth ached. Finally, after thinking it over, he decided that they couldn't lose their business in China, so they would send another person over.
After all, so much money has been invested in the early stages; we can't let the company suffer such a huge loss because of one person.
As for Yamajiro? Let him commit seppuku in a Chinese prison.
Therefore, the Japan Discount Co., Ltd. unilaterally dismissed Yamamoto Jiro for violating the law, but due to certain special circumstances, they were temporarily unable to notify him.
At this time, Yamamoto Jiro was also very helpless in the detention center. For some reason, the people in the detention center would beat him as soon as they heard that he was Japanese.
Waaaaah, they all hit me, they didn't treat everyone equally.
Moreover, whenever others got into a fight, those uncles in hats would arrive very quickly and pull the people apart in no time.
But when it was his turn to be hit, it was like a time-stopping machine in some movies; these hat-wearing uncles were frozen in place, and they didn't appear for a long time.
However, Yamajiro possessed an incredibly resilient character, and with only ten days left, he decided to endure it!
So he picked up a stone from the ground and carved the character "忍" (ren, meaning forbearance) on the bed board to remind himself.
As a result, Yamamoto Jiro's detention was extended for another two days the following day for damaging public property.
Yamamoto Jiro:? ? ?
Meanwhile, outside the detention center, the newly appointed head of the preferential treatment program, Taro Takahashi, arrived in Shanghai.
With the arrival of a new leader, the secretary no longer stayed home to recover from her injury and quickly returned to work.
Looking at his secretary, Takahashi Taro suddenly understood Yamamoto Jiro a little. With that secretary's figure and her weak and delicate expression, who could possibly handle their daily life?
However, he knew very well what he was there for, and he couldn't let a woman jeopardize his future.
So he had his secretary explain to him the basics of the preferential policies in China.
However, for some reason, as he was talking, his hand ended up touching his secretary's waist.
secretary:……
Sigh, it seems this is the fate of ordinary working people. Oh well, I accept it.
Taro Takahashi is quite capable; after understanding the current predicament of grabbing discounts...
He smiled dismissively: "The problem stems from insufficient firepower. Give the order to pool all the promotional funds and focus on Shanghai. We'll ignore the other cities for now. As long as we offer enough, I don't believe the merchants won't choose us."
After Takahashi Taro gave the order, Youhuiqiang adjusted its strategic layout, concentrating all its funds in Shanghai and providing massive subsidies to group-buying merchants and customers throughout the city.
It's so crazy, it's almost like half the price of a normal meal.
For example, a Japanese restaurant normally charges 300 yuan for a set meal for two, but it might be 238 yuan during group buying. However, this time, the discount will bring the price down to 150 yuan.
WowoTuan was the first to quit. How could they possibly operate like this? Even though burning money to grab market share wasn't profitable, they still had to cover labor, operations, and promotion costs, so they were already losing money.
But I can't just add a huge amount of money to the already losing money, or I'll be a nobody.
Xu Maodong was stunned when the discounted sale was done. "Sir, are you playing a brand new money-burning strategy?"
Following suit, Lashou.com and Meituan also stated that they could no longer withstand the pressure, and that the joint pressure they had previously exerted on merchants was no longer effective.
Merchants aren't stupid either. With such crazy discounts and subsidies, business must be booming. Even though it's a small group-buying platform, and they feel a bit uneasy, it's still their own money.
All three companies put pressure on Huasuan.com.
Zhang Yiming hurriedly ran to report this to Lin Chen, thinking to himself, "It seems that Huasuan.com is going to have to spend a lot of money this time. How much will this subsidy cost?"
Mr. Lin had already invested a large sum in Meidi, which was nearly depleting the company's cash flow. However, if Huasuan.com, in conjunction with the three major group-buying platforms, failed to seize the discounts, it would be a severe blow to Huasuan.com's morale and reputation.
What should we do now?
But when Lin Chen heard the news, his eyes lit up.
"This is a good thing! This kind of discount is like an old man hanging himself, he's tired of living!"
"Huh? Mr. Lin, how is this a good thing? Wowo.com, Lashou.com, and Meituan are all worried sick."
"Hey, calm down, Mr. Zhang, you need to look at the problem from a dialectical perspective."
"Um?"
"Look, with such huge discounts, doesn't that mean they're burning through cash like crazy to subsidize things every day?"
"Yes, definitely. It's even more crazy than Lashou.com and Wowo.com back then. They're practically giving it away for free."
"So, we'll give him a hand and promote it for him. Such great benefits should of course be shared with the vast number of users of Huasuan.com."
After hearing this, Zhang Yiming gasped. "Wow, President Lin's move is really ruthless."
You're grabbing discounts by offering subsidies, right? Well, I'll go along with it and give you a hand, letting you subsidize as much as you want, until you go bankrupt.
That evening, Huasuan.com sent an in-site message to all Shanghai IP users, informing them of the current crazy subsidy policy for the discounted deals, and also thoughtfully provided links to all the lowest-priced group-buying packages in history.
Users of Huasuan.com in Shanghai saw this in-site message and clicked to check out the stores they frequently use for group buying.
I didn't realize how cheap it was until I saw it. I immediately exclaimed, "Holy crap!" There's nothing more to say, I'll just have to stock up on a few group-buying coupons.
Lin Chen also thoughtfully sent a notice to the senior management group of Xingchen Technology, requiring everyone to reimburse their team building activities this month only through discounted group-buying vouchers.
At first, most of the middle and senior leaders were speechless, thinking, "Did our CEO Lin take money from the discount promotion? Why is he promoting it so vigorously?"
But when they opened the discount coupon and took a look, they immediately exclaimed, "Holy crap, Mr. Lin is brilliant!"
This is incredibly cheap! The cost of one team-building meal on a regular basis can cover two meals with this deal.
As a result, the team building activities at Xingchen Technology this month were all high-profile. Some departments had two meals, while others had an even more expensive meal. In short, the money was more than they could spend.
As for the discount promotion, after formulating this strategy, Taro Takahashi kept a close eye on the market feedback every day.
As expected, the results were impressive. The group-buying battlefield in Shanghai was suddenly thawed, and the market share grew rapidly, almost catching up with the leading companies like Wowo and Lashou.
