Chapter 418

Soon, even worse things happened at Kangjia Supermarket.

As time passed,

the citizens waiting outside became increasingly impatient.

People who were barely maintaining order in the queue started to push and argue.

Some people shouted angrily:

"How long do we have to wait! We've been waiting for several hours!"

"How exactly did you arrange this!"

"*Damn* it, wasting my time!"

Although the red packet of a few dozen dollars was very tempting, standing here stupidly for several hours felt like a loss.

Moreover, people inside Kangjia Supermarket couldn't get out, and people outside couldn't get in, and the entire supermarket fell into chaos.

The anger grew stronger.

And in terms of traffic conditions, it was completely out of control.

The originally narrow 2-lane road was blocked by vehicles, and the car horns were deafening.

The police maintaining order couldn't handle it at all.

Chen Chen Jiaju and his colleagues were busy and sweating profusely.

The office workers living in the surrounding area suffered, directly trapped on the road.

"How did this supermarket opening turn out like this? It's too irresponsible!"

"We still have to go to work to make money to support our families. Isn't this delaying our livelihood!"

Amidst this chaos, the opening ceremony of Kangjia Supermarket completely lost its original festive atmosphere and fell into unprecedented trouble.

(Director Guan Zu leans back tactically, what level are you, comparing with me!)

What about Boss Li?

At this moment, his face was gloomy, and he was scolding the supervisor in charge.

"Didn't I tell you to do a rehearsal?"

"Is this the answer you give me?"

The opening ceremony that should have been festive turned out like this.

A group of senior executives didn't dare to speak.

They were also confused. They did have a rehearsal, but a rehearsal is a rehearsal; they couldn't achieve the scene of so many people erupting at once, and it turned into empty talk on paper.

Boss Li looked at these people with their heads down, so angry he couldn't speak!

Now he just wanted to pray: please don't let any accidents happen!

Once an accident happens, it's over!

At the same time, he was also glad that he canceled the star concert, otherwise, the scene would have been even more chaotic!

Harbour City side.

On the square,

Director Guan Zu and Mr. Wu, the boss of Wharf, looked at the sea of people in the square with smiles on their faces.

"Mr. Director Guan, it seems our cooperation this time is a success!"

"Indeed very successful."

Director Guan Zu was also very satisfied with his decision to choose Harbour City, which allowed many citizens to have enough space.

Fang Ting on the side answered a phone call, covering her mouth and laughing, reporting to Director Guan Zu:

"Brother Zu, the situation at Kangjia Supermarket in Mong Kok doesn't seem very good."

"What's wrong?"

"Listening to the reports from the staff over there, Kangjia Supermarket is now a mess. The traffic outside is severely blocked, and the cars are lined up for several kilometers. Many citizens who have to go to work are blocked on the road, cursing angrily. The supermarket is also overcrowded, people can't get out, can't get in, customers are complaining, some are even arguing inside, and I heard some employees are on strike..."

"It feels like it's completely out of control over there!"

Director Guan Zu and Mr. Wu looked at each other.

Although they had expected it, they were still a little happy to hear this situation.

The two looked at each other and laughed out loud.

*Hehehe*~~~

The most refreshing thing in the world is that I am doing well, and the enemy is not doing well.

In a flash, it was noon.

The noon news on TVB and ATV finally started broadcasting.

Wen Huixin: "Welcome citizens to watch ATV noon news..."

"I suppose everyone is concerned about the grand opening of the two supermarkets. Let's take a look at the situation at the scene through the lens of the live broadcast helicopter..."

Soon, the helicopter lens started flying in the sky all the way, arriving at Harbour City.

On-site reporter Huang Huang Jieyi: "Everyone can see that there are still quite a few people queuing at the entrance of Five-Star Supermarket, but under the orderly guidance of the staff, everything appears orderly. Vehicles in the parking lot are parked neatly, and the entry and exit channels are smooth and unobstructed."

"At this time, the square outside the supermarket is even more bustling. The wonderful singing of singer Wu Ying and Legislative Councilor Liu Hua has attracted many citizens to stop and watch. In particular, Councilor Liu Hua brought a song 'Gong Xi Fa Cai', making the whole venue full of festive atmosphere..."

Citizens everywhere in Hong Kong saw this live broadcast and discussed that Five-Star Supermarket's opening was done well!

"Okay, next we are going to Kangjia Supermarket to see how the opening is going..."

In the picture,

the helicopter flew over the buildings and headed toward Mong Kok.

Less than 30 seconds,

arrived over Kangjia Supermarket.

"Oh~~~"

Reporter Huang Huang Jieyi let out an exclamation.

I saw that under the lens, in front of Kangjia Supermarket, what was presented was a scene completely different from Five-Star Supermarket.

On the road outside the supermarket, vehicles were blocked tightly, and the long line of cars could not be seen at the end. On the surrounding streets, there were anxious waiting crowds everywhere, and complaints and horns were intertwined, a chaotic mess.

The scene was almost out of control.

Huang Huang Jieyi exclaimed:

"Why are so many people gathered here?"

"Traffic is completely paralyzed!"

"We see many police officers from the police force directing traffic, but it seems to be of no use at all."

"It looks like this opening seems very bad..."

"Wait, what do I see!"

The lens on the helicopter aimed at a place below.

I saw a group of citizens fighting.

"Wow, they are fighting!"

!. Read

"Why are they fighting?"

"It's completely chaotic!"

The lens was fixed on the place where they were fighting below.

TV viewers were all speechless.

Many citizens couldn't help but complain:

"It's a mess!"

"How did this Kangjia Supermarket do this? It's too disappointing."

"And the traffic is so chaotic, how can we go shopping!"

"I originally wanted to go grab a red packet, but now it seems I'll forget it."

And on the TVB news side, although they tried hard to make up for Boss Li, the upper limit was there, and they couldn't make up for much.

In the afternoon, the stock market continued to open.

Then the stock price of Qu Yin Zhi Group fell again.

Those retail investors holding shares wished they could slap themselves: let you believe Boss Li, let you believe Boss Li, you gambler!

January 29th, Thursday, 4 days until New Year's Eve.

Today, citizens across Hong Kong learned their lesson and didn't go to Kangjia Supermarket to buy things.

But there were still too many smart people who thought others wouldn't go, so they went themselves, and Mong Kok was blocked like a dog again.

Boss Li was again busy and flustered.

The police were cursing again.

And in Harbour City, Five-Star Supermarket launched a service—"Free delivery service within 4 kilometers for products over 50 HKD"!

Once launched, it was well received!

Boss Li heard this and stared blankly!

*Damn*!

How can I learn this?

Can't learn it!

Director Guan Zu, you are playing dirty!

And the stock market, Qu Yin Zhi's stock price continued to fall, fall, fall~~~

January 30th, January 31st, February 1st, February 2nd......

Citizens gradually calmed down.

Fewer and fewer citizens went to Kangjia Supermarket.

There were no more traffic jams.

And the employees of Kangjia Supermarket finally relaxed their tense minds.

Relaxed is relaxed,

but Boss Li couldn't be happy anymore.

Five-Star Supermarket Harbour City store had a customer traffic of 200,000-300,000 a day.

And on his side, 100,000 was the limit, and later there were only 80,000.

Same size, but the results were several grades apart.

Playing with wool!

Turning on the TV again, ATV was there chattering again, gossiping about the failure of Kangjia Supermarket.

Boss Li: "..............."

*Pfft*~~~

So angry he vomited blood and went directly to the hospital!

The next day, New Year's Eve, newspapers across Hong Kong used sensational news headlines to describe the failure of Kangjia Supermarket.

"Perfect replica, yet still a failure, what happened to the Qu Yin Zhi retail empire?"

"Nowadays, the decline of Kangjia Supermarket is inevitable, and the foundation of the Qu Yin Zhi retail empire has begun to shake. Whether this is a strategic decision error or a deviation in execution, it is worth deep reflection by the entire business world."

"Collapse of the Qu Yin Zhi retail empire, Boss Li vomits blood and is hospitalized!"

"Under tremendous pressure, Boss Li finally couldn't bear the burden and vomited blood and was hospitalized. This event not only marks the complete failure of the Qu Yin Zhi retail empire in this competition but also triggers profound reflection on the cruelty of business competition."

"The end of the old era, the arrival of the new era, Five-Star Supermarket defeats Qu Yin Zhi and ascends to the throne"

"In the long river of business history, change always happens inadvertently. This duel between Five-Star Supermarket and Kangjia Supermarket under Qu Yin Zhi is a battle of new and old replacement with iconic significance."

"As a traditional retail giant, Qu Yin Zhi has accumulated abundant resources and rich experience in the past years, but when facing new market demands and competitive challenges, it failed to make effective adjustments in time..."

And all citizens realized at this moment that the disastrous defeat of Qu Yin Zhi Group in this supermarket war was a foregone conclusion.

No one expected that the powerful and invincible retail empire would collapse so quickly!
