"So you didn't try to find a way to resolve this issue?"
Looking at Feng Zhiqiang, who was frowning in front of him, Lin Sen's gaze turned serious, and he directly asked Feng Zhiqiang a question.
"Brother Sen, we've thought of many ways."
"But the root cause of this problem is not that the workers are unwilling to buy our Dongshan beer, but that the factory canteen is deliberately obstructing them."
"So we talked to various factories in the county and asked them to lift the restriction."
"Or we could also get our Dongshan Beer sold in the canteens of various factories."
"We can even offer some concessions."
Tang Xiaohu immediately replied with a wry smile, "But because these factories are all related to the Shen family, they completely ignore us."
“We said that their practice of not allowing outside beverages into the cafeteria is illegal and does not comply with the rules.”
Tang Xiaohu looked at Lin Sen with a helpless expression: "But the factory said that it did this for the sake of the workers' food safety."
"If a worker drinks outside beverages and gets food poisoning, who will be responsible?"
"Does Dongshan Beer promise to take full responsibility?"
"They responded with that kind of rebuttal."
Tang Xiaohu waved his hand helplessly: "We simply can't refute this."
"Yeah, Brother Sen, we've tried everything, but nothing works."
Feng Zhiqiang muttered to himself, "We talked to the person in charge of the factory canteen, wanting to sell our Dongshan Beer in the factory canteen as well."
"We can make the factory canteen our agent and compete with Linhai Beer."
"But the managers of these factory canteens never give us a chance."
“When we asked, they said that this matter required the approval of the factory’s top leaders.”
Feng Zhiqiang looked bitter and helpless: "Then we went to visit the factory's top leaders, but we couldn't even get a look at them!"
"understand."
Lin Sen shook his head with a helpless wry smile, having nothing to say about it.
Shen Youde is, after all, the richest man in Linhai County. Over the years, he has built a deep and intricate network of connections in Linhai County, with many wealthy and powerful acquaintances.
So Dongshan Beer, which had no real roots, wanted to enter the factory canteens and government units in the county.
That's definitely not something that can be done easily.
"In other words, the market in rural areas and towns of Linhai County is now basically dominated by Dongshan Beer."
Lin Sen stared intently at Tang Xiaohu in front of him: "And the market in the county town is dominated by the Shen family's Linhai Beer."
"Um."
"That's right."
Tang Xiaohu and Feng Zhiqiang immediately nodded in agreement.
"So Shen Youde sent Shen Zhao to sell Linhai beer in various towns and villages, naturally wanting to seize our Dongshan Beer's basic market share in those towns and villages."
Lin Sen sneered, looking at Tang Xiaohu and Feng Zhiqiang with a very serious expression: "He really has a good plan."
"Brother Sen, that's certainly the case at the moment."
Feng Zhiqiang immediately replied, "But because Dongshan Beer gives away glassware, and with our sales channels from the town level to the village level, we have already laid a solid foundation."
"The villagers either do it for the glassware or out of personal favors."
"Or they're just used to it, so most people will choose to buy our Dongshan Beer."
Feng Zhiqiang said, "Therefore, Linhai beer is not selling well in rural markets."
"After all, Linhai Beer gives people the feeling of being high and mighty."
"They are arrogant and look down on ordinary people."
"In rural towns, they are all sold through supply and marketing cooperatives."
"You know the service attitude of the supply and marketing cooperative, Brother Sen." Feng Zhiqiang shook his head: "The salespersons at the supply and marketing cooperative are all paid by the government, and they will never actively and enthusiastically promote their products."
"After all, whether or not the Linhai beer sells or not doesn't affect their wages."
“But our Dongshan Beer is different.”
“These town-level and village-level agents will actively solicit customers to sell more and make more money.”
"Therefore, in terms of enthusiasm, our Dongshan Beer's sales channels far surpass those of Linhai Beer."
Feng Zhiqiang looked at Lin Sen: "So, Brother Sen, this village market is our base, and for the time being, we are not afraid of Linhai Beer's attack."
"Um."
Lin Sen nodded slightly, his gaze solemn.
"Brother Sen, there's one more question."
At this moment, Tang Xiaohu muttered something to himself.
"Um?"
Lin Sen glanced at Tang Xiaohu suspiciously: "You tell me."
"Brother Sen, I heard that in order to compete with us in a price war, Shen's Brewery has changed its formula and is now producing beer made with blended grains."
"In that case, our advantage in cost price will no longer exist."
Tang Xiaohu was very worried: "Brother Sen, do you think we can still take the market share in Linhai County from Shen's Linhai Beer?"
"hiss."
"That is indeed a problem."
Jiang Yannian frowned immediately: "If the Shen family continues to sell pure grain beer at low prices, they will lose money every time they don't sell a single bottle."
"On the contrary, although we sell at a low price, we will not lose money because of our low cost."
"If this goes on for too long, the Shen family will lose too much money and definitely won't be able to hold on."
"But if the Shen family raises the price, they won't be able to compete with us."
Jiang Yannian looked at Lin Sen with great concern: "Xiao Sen, the Shen family, who are now also making beer by blending grains, will immediately lower their cost price."
"In this way, they won't be at a disadvantage when they engage in a price war with us."
"If the price war goes on for too long, it will be bad for us."
"But there's no benefit to it."
Jiang Yannian frowned: "After all, the costs of food and labor are getting higher and higher!"
"Komori, you can think of a solution in advance."
"Otherwise, we'll really be in the embarrassing situation of losing money for every bottle of beer we sell!"
"This is something we definitely need to figure out how to deal with and avoid."
After Jiang Yannian finished speaking, Lin Sen nodded slightly with a solemn expression: "However, there are advantages to this as well. After Linhai Beer is blended with mixed grains, its taste will be the same as our Dongshan Beer."
"In terms of taste, Linhai Beer doesn't have much of an advantage!"
"Komori, this isn't the key point, is it?"
Jiang Yannian muttered, "After all, price is the key. The Shen family is a large and powerful family. A long-term price war won't do us any good."
"Yeah, Brother Sen."
"Brother Sen, we have to take down the Shen family as soon as possible!"
Tang Xiaohu and Feng Zhiqiang also looked at Lin Sen with great concern and worry.
"Don't worry, let me think about it."
"Knock knock".
Lin Sen frowned, tapping his fingers on the table as he pondered how to win this price war as quickly as possible.
"Got it!"
A few minutes later, Lin Sen's eyes suddenly lit up, and an idea came to him!
