Chapter 1572 Sending Money

"Since I want to acquire Lantu Food, I definitely want to do a good job with Master Kong."

Wei Yingxing said, "That's why Master Kang won't sell it to you."

"But when you came to me, didn't you say you wanted to give me a big gift?"

Zong Qinghou looked at Wei Yingxing in front of him with a smile, knowing that few of these businessmen from Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan were good people, and even if they brought big gifts, they were not given for free.

"I know that Wahaha and Lantu Foods are in a price war right now and they're in urgent need of additional funds. It just so happens that I've brought you 10 million in funds."

Wei Yingxing took out a check for 10 million yuan and placed it neatly on the table. He said methodically, "My goal is not big. Ten percent of the shares of Wahaha Group." "Isn't your appetite big enough?"

Zong Qinghou glanced at Wei Yingxing with surprise, waved his hand, and said, "Wahaha's valuation is now several hundred million. You want to take away 10% of my shares for 10 million? That's absolutely impossible."

"Don't think about it anymore?"

Wei Yingxing didn't expect Zong Qinghou to reject him so decisively. Although he was surprised, he remained determined and said, "At this point, no matter who has an extra 10 million, they will have a greater chance of defeating the other party."

"It's ok."

Zong Qinghou was no fool and was not afraid of Wei Yingxing's words at all. "Although I admit that you are absolutely right, I know you will definitely not give this 10 million to Yu Dazui."

Leaning back, without the pressure, he lazily leaned back in his chair, raised his eyebrows and said, "Speaking of which, I believe that Yu Dazui has no money left. If he had money, he would have blown up that 10 million into 100 million and used it to scare me a long time ago."

"It seems we can't reach an agreement?"

Wei Yingxing said.

"Feel sorry."

Zong Qinghou shrugged and said, "I really can't accept this request. How about this: Stay here for dinner tonight, I'll treat you, at the Yangtze River Hotel. What do you say?"

"If you can't accept it, just pretend I didn't say anything. But..."

Wei Yingxing smiled and said, "In consideration of your last sentence, I will temporarily lend you the ten million."

After saying that, he pushed the check into Zong Qinghou's hand.

Zong Qinghou looked surprised again, glanced at the check in front of him for a few seconds, then put it away and said, "I have no reason to refuse, thank you."

At this critical juncture of a price war that was burning through money like crazy, he was fully aware of the significance of this 10 million. They currently had 50 million in funds, and with this 10 million, it would be 60 million.

Zong Qinghou is more confident about dealing with the remaining years with limited funds.

"You're welcome. We'll be friends from now on."

Wei Yingxing laughed heartily, lowered his legs from the table, and leaned forward to ask, "Lantu Foods keeps running into obstacles with your Wahaha in marketing. Aren't you Wahaha going to sue them? Do you really have that kind of ambition?"

"Boss Wei, you're joking."

Hearing this, Zong Qinghou gave a wry smile and said with mixed emotions, "I have considered suing Lantu Foods, but the key is that Lantu Foods has a huge influence in the local area and we cannot compete with them. If we sue them here and they don't come, it would be like punching cotton. It would be extremely helpless."

After hearing this, Wei Yingxing instantly understood, nodded, and said, "So that's how it is."

He thought to himself, "It seems that this little bastard Yunian really has some strength."

Looking up at Zong Qinghou, Wei Yingxing said with a smile: "I won't eat, but I'll wait and see if Wahaha takes over Lantu Foods."

"Within three months, I will make sure that Lantu Food's products disappear completely from the market."

Zong Qinghou is full of confidence and has already secured victory.

This market price war is becoming increasingly fierce.

Although many Wahaha executives have different opinions, some believe that they should not bother with the small-scale Lantu Food, while others believe that engaging in a price war with a clown like Lantu Food would lower their own grade.

Some people even think that the market is so big that Duolantu Food alone is not enough.

However, Zong Qinghou defied all odds and, at several group executive meetings, declared his intention to wipe out Lantu Foods and never give them a chance to thrive. Although some disagreed with Zong Qinghou's decision, no one dared to oppose him.

A week later, when the price war intensified instead of abating, Zong Qinghou convened another meeting.

"From this period of time, it's not hard to see that Lantu Food's advertisements have been sweeping the country, with countless celebrities endorsing them. This shows how much they've invested in advertising, so I decided..."

Zong Qinghou swept his gaze over the executives present and announced in a resounding voice, "Spend 20 million on advertising and 10 million on celebrity endorsements. Since they can get Leon Lai and Jacky Cheung to be their spokespeople, then let's get Andy Lau and Aaron Kwok to be our spokespeople. We can't be outdone by them. Their market popularity has been visibly high lately, and we must have a strategy to counter it."

Upon hearing this, the executives looked at each other in surprise, but no one objected. However, several female executives had their eyes shining with excitement.

Qian Yidan, who had originally disapproved of the price war, said, "How about we get the big star Yingzi to be our spokesperson? I believe that way, more consumers will buy in."

"Your words remind me, how could I have forgotten such an important star?"

Zong Qinghou slapped his head, his expression also seemed a little excited, but he concealed it much better than Qian Yidan, and immediately added: "Then we will invite the two kings and Shadow. It's decided."

Hearing this, Qian Yidan almost jumped up with joy. Even the executives looked expectant, and the entire conference room became agitated.

Zong Qinghou pressed his hand, quickly quieting the room, and then continued, "In addition to spending money on celebrities, we'll also spend 10 million on prime-time TV ads in the evening, preferably between 7 and 8 p.m."

"If that's the case, we'll only have less than 40 million left," one executive asked. "Do we have to invest all of this money in the market then?"

"Well, I've said this too many times: a price war is inevitable."

Seeing that some people still jumped out to question him, Zong Qinghou said unhappily: "Don't look at how much money we are spending now, but we must understand that we are eliminating our competitors for the next ten years. Also, any company that seeks comfort will not last long! Only by being an offensive company can we go further."

As soon as the words were spoken, there was thunderous applause and no one had any more objections.

"Okay, all the departments that need to get moving should get moving."

Zong Qinghou knocked on the table with his hand and said, "After we finish Lantu Food, let's celebrate with champagne!"
