Chapter 1668 Are you kidding me?
"Okay," Gu Ning replied, and then Peng Zijie hung up the phone first, but Gu Ning didn't mind.
So, Gu Ning and Jing Yunyao went to the [Mirror Flower and Water Moon] private room.
The names of the private rooms in [Tangyun Teahouse] are all poetic.
About five minutes after Gu Ning and Jing Yunyao arrived at the private room of "Mirror Flower and Water Moon", Peng Zijie arrived, and there were still four or five minutes before the agreed time.
Following Peng Zijie were a man and a woman, who were his secretaries.
Peng Zijie is a middle-aged man of about 40 years old, about 1.8 meters tall, dressed in a suit, of medium build and average looks, but very stylish and with a strong aura. However, he is very deliberate, and it is obvious that he is trying to intimidate Gu Ning.
However, Gu Ning was not affected at all. He stood up calmly and greeted him politely, "Hello, Mr. Peng."
Jing Yunyao was not a person who did not know etiquette, so when she saw Gu Ning stand up, she naturally stood up as well, but she did not say hello.
In such occasions, the followers just need to remain quiet and there is no need to make any noise.
Seeing that Gu Ning was not affected by his aura, Peng Zijie narrowed his eyes slightly. He felt a little unhappy in his heart, but he did not show it. He also politely responded to Gu Ning: "Mr. Gu, hello."
He was polite but a little arrogant, and then he walked directly to the sofa and sat down, and then said to Gu Ning: "Sit down!"
This attitude obviously looked down on Gu Ning, but Gu Ning didn't care.
After the group sat down, Peng Zijie's secretary immediately asked the waiter to make tea. After the tea was ready, the waiter went out, and then Peng Zijie spoke.
“Since Mr. Gu already knows my purpose, I won’t beat around the bush. The United Kingdom of Dilanxier, the Lanneo Group, has taken a fancy to Coach Beauty, so it wants to acquire Coach Beauty. Of course, after the Lanneo Group acquires Coach Beauty, you will still be the person in charge of Coach Beauty and own 10% of the shares. And Coach Beauty will be promoted nationwide under the development of the Lanneo Group and become a third-tier or above brand.” Peng Zijie said with a high-profile look, as if he was giving alms to Gu Ning.
Such conditions are indeed very tempting, but that is only for those who are not sure about developing a strong product and those who want to take shortcuts.
Because the reputation of [Laneo Group] is already there, as long as [Coatz Beauty] is named as [Laneo Group] brand, it will be promoted vigorously, the reputation of [Coatz Beauty] will rise rapidly, and sales will naturally become popular.
Unlike now, Coach had a good reputation and was well-known, but it could not be compared with the Lanneo Group because Coach was still very small.
[Lanio Group] has business operations in more than 100 countries, more than 100 branches worldwide, more than 30 factories, tens of thousands of employees, and total assets of about 50 billion yuan.
The business scope of Coach is limited to one domestic area, with one branch, one factory, several hundred employees, and total assets of only about 100 million yuan.
Such a gap is naturally incomparable.
If Gu Ning accepts the other party's conditions, he will first get the 100 million yuan, and then the property rights will become the legal person of [Lanniou Group]. In addition, he will get 10% of [Coats]'s shares without investing. Whether this 10% is a lot or a little depends on the future development of [Coats].
However, the product quality of Coach is unmatched by that of Lanneo Group, no, it should be unmatched by any company in the world, because Coach has spiritual energy and the effect is amazing.
Why would [Laniao Group] want to acquire [Coatus], which is not very famous to them?
Yes, for an international group like the Lanneo Group, Coach is not well-known. It’s just because they are in the same industry that the news spread to the group headquarters so quickly.
However, with such amazing results as Coach, Gu Ning was confident that she could quickly develop Coach into a top brand, so how could Gu Ning be attracted by such conditions! Gu Ning was neither angry nor sarcastic, but just smiled helplessly and said, "I can't count how many companies you are that want to acquire Coach and cooperate with Coach. But I'm not here to discuss cooperation with you today, I'm just here to tell Mr. Peng what I mean. Coach will never accept any acquisition or production cooperation, only commodity cooperation. The person in charge of Coach has already told you about this, but Mr. Peng doesn't seem to give up, so I can only come forward and make it clear to Mr. Peng."
"What? You don't agree?" Peng Zijie was a little surprised when he heard this. He thought Gu Ning asked him to find her because she was interested in cooperation! But he didn't expect that the other party would not accept the acquisition and cooperation.
Suddenly, Peng Zijie felt that he had been fooled.
"Yes, I don't agree." Gu Ning responded firmly.
"Are you kidding me?" Peng Zijie looked at Gu Ning with sinister eyes and asked coldly.
"Why do you say that, Mr. Peng?" Gu Ning couldn't help but laugh sarcastically when he heard this. "Your repeated visits to my company have already had an impact on my company. And when you went there for the first time, the person in charge of my company clearly refused to acquire us. But you didn't take it seriously and repeatedly harassed us, using threats and inducements. Mr. Peng, don't you think your actions are inappropriate?"
Peng Zijie choked when he heard this. Although he knew that his actions were indeed improper, there were not so many proper and improper things in the business world! The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. As long as he succeeds, what's wrong with using some tricks?
"Mr. Gu, it's your honor to be noticed by the Lannio Group." Peng Zijie said, still looking proud.
"You feel it's an honor, but not necessarily for me. Don't I even have the right to refuse something I don't want to do?" Gu Ning said, his voice beginning to become cold.
"Mr. Gu, you are still young and don't understand business. Business is like a battlefield. Sometimes, there is no logic. The winner takes all. In the face of interests, what's the harm in using some tricks?" said Peng Zijie. This was an undisguised threat.
"Boss Peng is right. When it comes to interests, what's the harm in using some tricks? But these tricks are not only used by Boss Peng." Gu Ning said without any fear in his eyes. Instead, his words were obviously provocative.
"Mr. Gu, I know you have some connections, but connections only exist when there are benefits. When you are in a good position, they will recognize who you are, but when you are down and out, they will just stay away from you." Peng Zijie said, as if he knew him very well.
