Zhao Jinshui, on the other hand, thought the company was outrageous. After all, this soy sauce factory only had one product on sale before, so how much impact could it have on the company?
This acquisition fee was earned for the company only through the tireless efforts of their sales department employees in promoting the product.
How can we let these people in the company ruin it so recklessly?
Zhao Jinshui and Director Howard had completely different ideas. When they came, they had already figured it out: either they would lower the acquisition price or they would ruin the acquisition deal.
Seeing the group's sophisticated appearance, the receptionist knew something big must have happened and quickly dialed Lu Fan's office number:
“Mr. Lu, a group of people claiming to be from Shengjing Company have come to the front desk and want to see you.”
Wang Wei was also in the office.
She was surprised when Lu Fan told her that people from Shengjing Company had arrived.
Shengjing Company is located in Harbour City, not far from Nanshan City, and product distribution in Nanshan is of paramount importance.
Furthermore, as the head of the sales department, after the successful acquisition of the soy sauce factory, Wang Wei had already thoroughly researched all the similar products available on the market in Nanshan City.
The pricing strategy for their own products was also discussed and decided upon by Wang Wei and Lu Fan together.
They use the same sales approach and target the same customer group, but their prices are slightly lower than those of Shengjing Company's products.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that this was a target of Shengjing Company. Wang Wei hadn't expected that people from Shengjing Company would come knocking on her door so quickly.
"What are they doing here? They can't possibly come here to fight over business matters, can they?"
Wang Wei expressed her incomprehension.
Lu Fan had a guess in his mind, but guesses are just guesses after all. He didn't say much. After learning that several senior executives from Shengjing Company had come, he also asked his secretary to invite several leaders from the factory.
While waiting for the others to arrive, Wang Wei quickly relayed all the information from Shengjing to Lu Fan:
"They say that competitors are enemies, and our soy sauce factory and their Shengjing Company are no exception."
After the old soy sauce factory gradually declined under the Wang family's management, newcomers naturally rose to prominence and seized the old soy sauce factory's market share.
Among them, Shengjing Group stands out the most.
Now, its products are leading in sales not only nationwide, but also globally.
Compared to such listed companies, a newly established soy sauce factory is like a child playing around.
There is absolutely no comparison.
Compared to Lu Fan, Wang Wei thought more deeply; she was a little worried about the consequences of angering Shengjing Company.
With just a single sentence, the other party could cause major domestic supermarkets to boycott their products.
However, although Shengjing Company has the size to do so, it has no competitors yet, so it is not worth taking such a risk.
The secretary called Lü Qiuyi, Yi Hailiang, and other company leaders in their offices.
Upon hearing that it was someone from Shengjing Company who had come to discuss business, everyone had different thoughts.
Some considered cooperation, others realized the truth, and still others guessed it was an acquisition.
Lü Qiuyi knew Shengjing Company very well; in fact, a business she had previously represented had run right into Shengjing's hands.
That was a very difficult battle. If Lu Qiuyi hadn't been well prepared, she really wouldn't have been able to withstand the legal team of such a powerful conglomerate.
Now, Shengjing Company has found a new target, namely the industries under President Lu.
Even the usually composed and mature Lü Qiuyi couldn't help but worry about Lu Fan and the soy sauce factory that was just starting out and getting on track...
When Lu Fan arrived at the front desk with Lü Qiuyi, Wang Wei, and several other senior executives.
This group of elite-looking people from Shengjing Company were waiting at the elevator entrance.
Wang Wei was skilled in business and had considerable experience in entertaining distinguished guests. After the two groups exchanged greetings, she invited them to join her in the reception room.
"Since you've all come from afar, please take a break and have some tea. We can discuss anything else later, so as not to delay you."
Howard from the marketing department led the Shengjing Company team, which also included representatives from the business department, legal department, and others who came to participate in the acquisition proposal.
Representatives from both sides accompanied Howard.
Wang Wei was taken aback when she heard that Shengjing Company had sent the director of the marketing department.
The speculation is that the other party wants to invest in the soy sauce factory.
Overjoyed, he thought: if he could gain access to Shengjing Company, or even just their sales channels, it would be entirely beneficial to his soy sauce factory.
So Wang Wei became even more enthusiastic towards the group:
"Do any of you have any dietary restrictions? Coffee or tea?"
Howard doesn't care about any of that; he just wants water.
Others may have their own preferences or concerns; some want tea, others want espresso.
Wang Wei called her secretary to bring them tea and coffee.
During this time, Lu Fan left the arrangements to Wang Wei and didn't say much. He himself silently observed the expressions of the people from Shengjing Company. Yi Hailiang, seeing Wang Wei's excited attitude, guessed something about why Shengjing Company had sent them.
