My Strength Does Not Allow Me to Low-key

"Haha, needless to say? The first is titanium dioxide, which is an indispensable thing for all sunscreen and sunscreen cosmetics, such as all foundations, which are indispensable. There are also copper sulfate, sodium sulfate and the like, These things are all essential raw materials for repairing skin cosmetics..."

Pierre and Laura have been together for a long time, and Laura also has a share in the business of representing the Ninth Laboratory's products, so he also knows a lot about cosmetics now.

Coupled with Laura's analysis and the news he got from Laura's father, he told Xiao Feng about the alliance's battle plan.

The things he mentioned are the most widely used basic raw materials in the cosmetics industry at present.

Most of these raw materials are currently produced in China. The cosmetics launched by the Ninth Laboratory also used these raw materials, and they were all purchased from some factories in the south.

Xiao Feng also frowned when he heard what Pierre said. Pierre had mentioned this before, and he also told He Xiaojun about it.

He Xiaojun also agreed to increase the material reserves in advance, and I don't know how much he has reserved.

According to Pierre, these foreign devils will definitely start with the supply.

We must know that at present, L'Oreal, Estee Lauder, Avène, Dior, and those cosmetic manufacturers in Japan and South Korea account for almost 99% of the cosmetic raw materials used in the world.

They are the most important downstream customers of those raw material manufacturers in Huaguo. Once they form an alliance, they will not only be able to control the price of these raw material supplies.

It can also affect the production capacity of these factories in Huaguo!

They can increase the supply orders for these factories, and then put forward a request for priority supply, so that the Ninth Laboratory can not pick up the goods from these factories.

They can even organize an alliance, go to those factories to jointly negotiate, and prohibit those factories from supplying the Ninth Laboratory. In this way, they can strangle the Ninth Laboratory's access to raw materials.

Once these raw materials are gone, no matter how much small-molecule collagen your Ninth Laboratory can produce, it will not be a finished product.

Without finished products, what do you sell to consumers?

One or two days, you can still use the shortage of finished products as an excuse, but once the time goes by, consumers will think that you are engaging in hunger marketing, and then the brand will fail.

No matter how effective your product is, consumers will not pay for it.

This is the conspiracy of that alliance!

And to crack this trick, it is actually very simple, that is to establish a supply chain system by yourself, and build all raw materials for production by yourself, or find a factory that specializes in supplying you.

However, it takes time and a lot of money to do so. Without three to five years, it is simply impossible to complete.

If it really takes three to five years, I am afraid that the brand of the Ninth Laboratory will be cold!

And even if you have completed the construction of the closed-loop industrial chain and can mass-produce by then, those guys can still fight price wars with you, and may even use various means, such as political means, to drive you out of the market.

Anyway, speaking of unfair competition, none of these foreign devils are good cakes!

Mad, had already discussed with Guy and the others that they would provide them with small molecule collagen after the next year, just to avoid such a situation from happening.

But who would have thought that as soon as this American guy got involved, things would change immediately.

Thinking of Jeff, the representative of Estee Lauder in the picture, Xiao Feng couldn't help gnashing his teeth with hatred.

There is no way, the Americans are used to the bandit-like way of doing business.

In the past, it was not easy for them to attack the French. After all, France was their ally when they came, and they also had many products to sell in Europe when they came to the United States, so it was not easy to attack the French.

But they still established Estee Lauder, a brand belonging to the United States, to compete with Europeans in the market.

Before the Ninth Laboratory appeared,

They and the French have their own unique skills, so they can be regarded as dividing the world equally, but they also maintain a delicate balance.

But now a Chinese company called the Ninth Laboratory suddenly appeared, and the Americans couldn't accept it at once.

Especially when this Huaguo company also controls a unique skill that the entire cosmetics market is very eager for.

If this makes this Huaguo company bigger and stronger, it will definitely squeeze everyone out of food. After studying the products of the Ninth Laboratory, the Americans came to such a conclusion.

So they decided to unite with French companies to attack this Huaguo company together.

Unlike Guy and the others who planned to solve the problem peacefully, the domineering Americans never planned to coexist peacefully with the Ninth Laboratory from the very beginning.

So they first united with some other small cosmetics manufacturers in France and Europe, and then they joined forces in the living room of Guy's house.

In this way, even if L'Oreal is a big name, it would not dare to disobey the wishes of so many small manufacturers, and they could only be coerced by them to agree to the ideas proposed by the Americans.

Xiao Feng also knew that this was the first trial, and he must not act too weak, otherwise those Americans would surely pounce on him like hungry wolves and tigers and leopards.

"So, how do you want to deal with them?"

Pierre looked at the silent Xiao Feng and asked, Xiao Feng sat on the executive chair and turned around.

"Since they play like this, don't blame me. I will drive them out of the Huaguo market first! See if they can afford such a loss! Then break them down!"

Xiao Feng said to Pierre with a smile, and Pierre shuddered for a while.

If Xiao Feng had said that before, Pierre would not have believed it, but now that Huaguo has awakened its national consciousness, if Xiao Feng said that, then he might really be able to do it.

At that time, as long as the news that the European and American Cosmetics Alliance is forcing the Ninth Laboratory is sent out, those Chinese consumers will definitely support their domestic companies.

Even for these big European and American brands, it's useless to invite more naval forces, and the interested Chinese manufacturers will definitely not run out of stock for Xiao Feng's Ninth Laboratory.

At that time, the conspiracy of L'Oreal and Estee Lauder will naturally be self-defeating.

But doing so is also a double-edged sword. Although it can break the game, it will inevitably tear face with big companies like Estee Lauder and L'Oreal.

These large manufacturers have considerable power in Europe and America. Once they use political means, it will be difficult for the products of the Ninth Laboratory to be launched in Europe and the United States.

Of course, this is not what Pierre wants to see. After all, Laura's boutique is currently the exclusive agent of the Ninth Laboratory in Europe.

If the products of the Ninth Lab were banned in Europe, he and Laura would suffer the most.

"Don't worry, this is just one of my choices, I won't use this trick easily."

When Xiao Feng saw Pierre's expression changed drastically, he naturally knew what he was worried about, so he comforted him with a smile.

Of course, he was only smiling. After all, the alliance of European and American cosmetics companies headed by L'Oreal and Estee Lauder is aggressive and not easy to deal with.

He really didn't have a good choice as to where to break the situation!

The trick just mentioned can really only be used as the last option, and I dare not use it indiscriminately.

In the evening, Pierre left on his own, while Xiao Feng went to the airport. There was an important guest coming today, and he had to pick him up in person.

After waiting at the airport for less than half an hour, Helen finally walked out of the airport. Looking at her attire, Xiao Feng couldn't help but sigh, these European and American women are really not afraid of the cold.

At this time, it was the coldest days in Bincheng, but this woman was actually only wearing a fur coat and stockings and high heels underneath.

"Aren't you cold?"

After picking her up in the car, Xiao Feng asked Helen with a smile, while Helen rolled her eyes.

"How did I know that it would be so cold in Bincheng, otherwise I wouldn't wear it like this if I was killed."

"Haha, I thought you were really not afraid of the cold!"

Xiao Feng started the car with a smile. This time he didn't take Helen to the winery in the suburbs, but took her directly to the mansion in the sky in the Twin Towers.

"Wow! Is this your new home?"

Even though Helen is well-informed, she will inevitably be dazzled after entering this mansion in the air.

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at the square covered with colorful lights and the high-rise buildings with red lights on both sides, it is like living in a spaceship overlooking the earth. This feeling is very sci-fi.

"Haha, yes, how is it? Do you like it?"

In fact, since living here, Xiao Feng has never been back to his old house, and he also likes this mansion in the air very much.

"Well, I like it."

Helen just answered a sentence, and felt the man behind rush up. . .

Lying on the luxurious big bed in the master bedroom, watching the beautiful scenery outside the window and sipping red wine, Xiao Feng felt very comfortable.

It took Helen a while before she gradually came to her senses. She sat up, picked up her wine glass, and looked at Xiao Feng.

"Honey, I have good news for you."

"Oh? What good news?"

"I finally found out for you how the cosmetics from the Ninth Laboratory entered the United States."

"Oh? Let's hear it!"

When Xiao Feng heard this, he immediately regained his spirits. Unlike the relatively relaxed environment in Europe, in the United States, if the cosmetics of his Ninth Laboratory want to be sold publicly, they must be approved by the US Food and Drug Administration.

And to get their approval, they have to publish the patent and formula, which is what Xiao Feng is unwilling to do.

Therefore, the cosmetics of the Ninth Laboratory are very popular in Europe, but they have not been registered in the United States.

Unexpectedly, now Helen actually said that he had found a channel for him. At the critical moment of the war between him and that alliance, it was undoubtedly equivalent to helping him open up a battlefield behind the enemy!
