Three days later, the beverage factory had to stop production for half a day.
Because the machine couldn't handle it.
Their production line now fills 6,000 bottles per hour.
Even with overtime work, the production capacity is only around 100,000 bottles per day, no more than that.
Even this couldn't withstand continuous operation; both production lines were about to be rendered unusable.
Su Wu, the behind-the-scenes boss who was hiding at home coding, was personally invited to the factory by Er Pi.
Erpi exclaimed, "Can you imagine? In just three days, we sold 300,000 bottles of Coca-Cola, covering almost the entire city of Tianjin."
Su Wu was shocked to hear this. "300,000 bottles in three days? How did you manage that?"
Erpi said smugly, "Who told us to have so many connections? But it's also because our products are of high quality and taste really good. And your counterfeit brand really works too."
If the commission is high, which boss wouldn't sell Coca-Cola first?
Because of its good taste and the added appeal of ginseng, customers who bought it no longer cared about the brand.
Especially in internet cafes and places where young people tend to gather, they sell incredibly well.
Some people even think it's a health drink, saying that it makes them feel energized after drinking it, and they instantly become loyal fans.
Such a record truly surprised Su Wu.
His decision to help Erpi was incredibly wise; he's a true asset.
Erpi exclaimed excitedly, "Our Tianjin has a population of 10 million, and we must consume at least several million bottles of beverages every day, right? We need to expand our scale, otherwise we won't have enough to sell."
Upon hearing this, Su Wu began to ponder.
At that time, there were indeed no competitive beverages in China, except for Jianlibao, which had a slight local advantage.
This is indeed a good time to quickly seize market share.
Moreover, the beverage factory now has 10 million yuan that came out of nowhere, so it has plenty of funds and there is no problem with expanding production.
Just as he was thinking, Erpi said seriously, "I've inquired, and the best production line right now can produce 10,000 bottles per hour, which costs about 700,000. We can definitely afford it."
Su Wu thought for a moment and shook his head slightly. "There should be better options abroad, and it's better to acquire more factories than to sell new production lines now."
As technology advances, production equipment will only become cheaper, but the costs of land for building factories will continue to rise.
Instead of investing in new production lines, it would be better to acquire several smaller factories.
Moreover, with Meikuzi on its way, Su Wu was confident that he could procure some genuine large-scale bottling production lines through the Yamaguchi-gumi's channels.
With a plan in mind, he analyzed, "A new production line costs 700,000, while buying a factory would only cost around a million. Although the production capacity wouldn't be as high, we'd have more factory space. Besides, I have connections to get better production lines..."
Erpi listened thoughtfully and said, "Alright, I'll go talk to Du Ziteng and ask him for help."
“Alright, I’ll contact my friend and see how much a good production line costs.” Su Wu nodded.
A week has passed, and it should be time for Meikuzi to arrive.
Su Wu had prepared a special concentrated liquor and two kinds of cola, waiting for her arrival.
This is the genuine Coca-Cola formula, not some wild concoction with added ginseng.
Meikuzi arrived as scheduled and sent her address to Su Wu.
Su Wu headed to the Astor Hotel with the things he had prepared.
When Su Wu arrived at the location with his backpack, he saw the bodyguards from the Baozhun Society who were already waiting at the door.
He said in fairly fluent Japanese, "I'm here to see Miss Mikuko."
"Please wait a moment."
A man in a suit nodded slightly, turned around, and gently knocked on the door.
A moment later, the door opened a crack, and a female bodyguard peered out with a frown.
"The person you're waiting for has arrived."
"Check it over, and if everything's okay, let him in."
Upon hearing this, the man turned to look at Su Wu and said, "Please cooperate."
Su Wu nonchalantly raised his hand, gesturing for them to inspect.
A moment later, he was put inside.
Upon seeing him enter, Yamaguchi Miko fluttered over like a butterfly.
She blinked her big eyes, looking at Su Wu with curiosity and some surprise.
"Lord Su Wu?"
"It's me."
"You're so young! I always thought you'd be a middle-aged man!"
"Maybe my soul is that of an old man."
"Oh, you're so funny."
Mei Kuzi circled around Su Wu with great surprise, but her expression darkened after a moment.
"You may all leave. No one else is needed here. No one is to enter without my order."
Once the bodyguards had all left, she gave Su Wu a playful smile and said, "Lord Su Wu, Mei Ku Zi has finally met you."
As she spoke, she excitedly leaped into Su Wu's arms.
"Your skills are truly amazing! I admire you so much!"
Su Wu was knocked off balance and staggered, barely managing to regain his footing.
There was no way around it; those two bouncy balls were just too impactful.
Slightly stunned, Su Wu smiled and gently stroked Mei Kuzi's hair.
This might be a yandere princess; if she's sick, she needs treatment.
Sure enough, Meikuzi snuggled against Su Wu like a puppy, completely ignoring their serious business.
After a moment, her eyes became glazed, and she looked up at Su Wu pitifully, "I want to become Lord Su Wu's person!"
Su Wu raised an eyebrow, "Can you call Ya Mei 'Dad'?"
"Hey, hey, let's go!" Miko nodded frantically.
This meeting was somewhat unexpected for Su Wu.
