My Strength Does Not Allow Me to Low-key

Helen's eyes lit up when she heard what Xiao Feng said. After all, who would have trouble with money?

The catering competition in the United States is very fierce. Speaking of fast food chains, it can be said that the United States is the birthplace.

According to the survey, in the United States, there are now thousands of large and small fast food chain brands. The so-called large scale means that there are at least five branches.

And these brands cover almost any country-style food in the world.

This is the advantage of being the world's largest. Its citizens can enjoy delicacies from all over the world without going abroad at all.

These fast food restaurants range from traditional American fast food to Mexican food, Italian food, French food, Japanese food, Korean food, and even Chinese food.

It can be said that this is a fully competitive market, and such a highly open market, coupled with the super spending power of Americans, almost everyone knows that if you go to the United States to open a restaurant, as long as you are willing to endure hardships, it will definitely be profitable. pay.

Although Helen's family is engaged in high-end banquets, they are close relatives in the catering industry, so they know this industry very well. She even has a few relatives who are shareholders of some fast food chain brands.

So she is no stranger to this industry.

As for the fast food chain made by famous chefs, she has been to Huaguo several times, so she naturally ate there.

To be honest, I can say that she likes the taste of this restaurant very much. It is more unique than traditional Chinese fast food, and it is very easy to distinguish. This is the characteristic.

And this kind of taste is not only liked by Chinese people, but American people will also like it.

So if this store is opened in the United States, it will definitely not lose money.

Even if it is driven to a city inhabited by Chinese, or Chinatown in every city, it can make money just by relying on those Chinese consumers.

So Helen would not refuse Xiao Feng's proposal.

The current fast food set menu of this restaurant in China is only about 4 US dollars. If you take it to the United States, it will rise to 7 or 8 US dollars, which is not a problem at all.

That kind of price is less than an hour’s minimum wage for Americans, and it is also the consumption level of mid-range fast food in the United States. Helen roughly summed it up. If this fast food restaurant is opened in the United States, its profitability may be even higher than that in Huaguo. powerful.

The two of them got together again and made a total calculation, and the discussion didn't end until the sky brightened.

And meanwhile, Guy. Agong, several other French cosmetics tycoons, and Jeff, the representative of Estee Lauder, were also sitting on a chartered plane, flying towards Huaguo.

Just yesterday, he had received a notification from the Ninth Laboratory, telling him that the small-molecule collagen that he had promised to supply to them was ready, and they had been notified to come and purchase it.

If there were no Americans to intervene, he might have joined with a few French counterparts to come over and purchase directly, but now, looking at the opposite Jeff wearing sunglasses and full of flirtatious air.

Guy felt a pain in his heart. This time they came to issue an ultimatum.

According to the previous meeting hosted by Jeff, everyone discussed the conditions for the Ninth Laboratory. In Guy Agon's view, this condition can be said to be very harsh, and the content can be said to be full of American-style overlords. terms.

This bastard actually asked the ninth laboratory to open the manufacturing process and process of small molecule collagen to all foreign counterparts in the first article.

In Guy's opinion, this is simply a bastard's clause. Although this company is a Chinese company, you can't ask for it like this. They will disclose their unique skills for free, right?

What's the difference between this and Ming Qiang? Do you really think people are vegetarians?

Of course, he also knew that this was just asking for a high price, a negotiating strategy, but when he saw this clause, he still felt very disgusted. The routine of the Americans was too much.

As for their alliance, the ultimate bottom line this time is to ask the Ninth Laboratory to open the supply of small molecule collagen, which means that everyone can purchase small molecule collagen at will.

Not limited by time and quantity.

This request is also very excessive. If the ninth laboratory agrees to this request, then they will be completely reduced to the bottom supplier of all cosmetics companies.

This position seems to be very powerful, but it is actually very embarrassing. Although it is the most important upstream supply chain, it has no right to set prices at all.

No matter how you look at this status, it is very similar to the company that sells XT (guess what XT is).

Guy could figure it out with his ass, that the Ninth Laboratory would definitely put up a very fierce resistance, and even tear everyone apart.

Although they can put pressure on this company by controlling other suppliers, reducing the supply to the Ninth Laboratory, or even out of stock, but no one can say what the specific consequences will be.

Last time he also met with the leader of the Ninth Laboratory, that young man from Huaguo, who left a deep impression on him.

He is not very old, but he is very sophisticated in speaking and doing things, and he will definitely not be a person who gives in easily.

This time, if we really broke our face with them, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with it. In the future, maybe in the market, we will face each other with swords and tit for tat.

Looking at Frank, the head of Dior on the plane, Sente, the head of Gillemand, Alvaro, the head of the Avène family, and other big bosses of well-known European cosmetics companies, almost It's all here.

These guys don't know if they will secretly engage in other small tricks. Although everyone is in the same alliance now, Guy doesn't trust them.

If it wasn't for his strong request, these guys definitely wouldn't have taken the same plane, and they might have made some tricks.

He has fought openly and secretly with these guys in the mall for many years, and he knows them too well. Maybe these guys have prepared a plan B.

But he didn't give Guy for nothing, so he naturally prepared another plan.

The destination of this flight is the capital of Huaguo, where all the upstream suppliers of Huaguo have basically arrived.

They will hold a meeting with them there to unify everyone's thinking. If someone objects, they will be kicked out of the supply chain.

This is the benefit of all the big cosmetics companies being united. They not only hold the pricing power, but also let the upstream suppliers live like grandchildren.

Then they will fly directly to Bincheng to find the boss of the Ninth Laboratory and issue him an ultimatum.

Guy was still figuring out his plan B when Jeff's satellite phone, sitting in front of him, rang, even though he was on the plane.

But the saying that you can't make phone calls on the plane doesn't exist at all for big guys like them.

Jeff glanced at the phone number, then got up and went to a place where no one was in front of him to answer the call. Guy kept paying attention to the guy's appearance, seeing how submissive he was when he answered the phone. This call should be from his boss .

Soon Jeff hung up the phone and returned to his original position. Although there was no change on his face, Guy felt a sense of uneasiness from him.

The plane arrived at Beijing Airport at 9:00 p.m., and because it was too late, the meeting with the supplier was postponed to 10:00 the next morning.

Everyone went to the hotel to rest first, because each family has an office in the capital, so their respective residences were also arranged, so as soon as they got out of the airport, everyone dispersed.

Early the next morning, Guy rushed to the hotel where he had an appointment with the suppliers. The suppliers arrived early and were very enthusiastic when they saw him.

But I don't know why, but Guy's heart is always flooded with a feeling of uneasiness. He can't tell exactly why, but he just feels uncomfortable.

Sure enough, at ten o'clock, his guess finally came true.

Jeff, who was supposed to appear at the meeting together, and Alvaro, the boss of Avène, did not show up, and several bosses of cosmetics companies who were closely related to Americans also disappeared.

Guy, the leader of the French cosmetics industry, immediately arranged for someone to call them, but none of them answered.

Guy immediately realized that something was wrong, and he immediately activated the inside line he had planted in Bincheng. Half an hour later, he got a reply and couldn't help yelling.

Although the other bosses at the scene also noticed that something was wrong, they didn't know exactly what was wrong. When they saw Guy throwing a tantrum like this, they knew something was wrong.

"What the hell happened? Guy!"

Gilleman's head Sente asked, and Guy replied with a gloomy face.

"We were tricked by the Americans. That Jeff didn't know what happened, and he has already changed his position. He took a red-eye flight to Bencheng overnight yesterday, as well as Alvaro from Avène, and several other bastards."

"what?"

All the other bosses present immediately changed their faces. Although they knew that the Americans were jerks, who would have thought that they would be such jerks?

Selling out teammates like this is really not moral at all!

The American who represented Estee Lauder before had the toughest attitude, but what the hell is going on? I didn't see anything, this guy made a 180-degree turn in his attitude, and he was KO'd in an instant!

The leader is the first to rebel, so is this alliance still playing a fart?

"What are they doing in Bencheng overnight?"

Sente grasped the point at once, and Guy glanced at him.

"The Ninth Laboratory issued an announcement saying that at three o'clock this afternoon, they will hold an auction in XXXX to auction today's supply share of small molecule collagen. This year, they will release a total of 300 kilograms to the public. , will be divided into ten groups for public auction!"

"what?"

"Hurry up, Manager Wang, arrange for someone to book a plane ticket for me right away?"

"Hey, Mr. Zhang, we have been an old customer for many years, and your copper sulfate has always been sold to me. I heard that you have a private jet? Can you lend it to me today, uh, no... Rent it to me?"
