Chapter 1984

"Let's eat." Zhou Andong was also hungry: "Are we not drinking at noon today?"

"No." Zhang Shenghui shook his head first: "I treated the CCTV leaders to dinner yesterday, and it drank me so much that I still haven't recovered."

Zhou Andong asked curiously: "To be able to drink you down, how much can they drink?"

"Seven of them drank me alone." Zhang Shenghui shook his head, then laughed: "But all seven of the other side collapsed."

Zhou Andong picked up the sauce-fried chicken cubes: "How is it? Has the advertising bidding matter not been finalized yet?"

"It's not that easy." Zhang Shenghui sighed: "However, it's about the same now. After all, it's bidding; the more manufacturers, the more their interests can be maximized."

Zhou Andong picked up the rice and took a bite: "If it's still not working, tell me, and I'll find someone to help you say hello."

Zhang Shenghui was stunned, then reacted, and a very sincere gratitude flowed in his eyes.

Don't look at how good the personal relationship is, but after all, the identities are different, and it belongs to a competitive relationship.

To put it bluntly, Zhou Andong helping him win the CCTV advertisement is helping the enemy.

"Let's see; if I can't get the bidding qualification, I'll find you again."

Zhang Shenghui didn't say words like "thank you" or "gratitude." With their status and position, saying these things had no meaning. Human feelings must be repaid in deeds, not in words.

Zhang Shenghui would never have thought that Zhou Andong wanted to help him actually to make him expand quickly, bring Qin Chi down, and then go to the brewery.

"Okay!" Zhou Andong picked up the fish fillet and put it in his mouth: "Between us brothers, you don't need to have any concerns. As for the competition between us, to be honest, I've never taken it seriously.

After all, our country is so big, with over a billion people; the white liquor market is too big, and it's not something one or two companies can finish doing business in."

"Right!" Wu Hongkang nodded along: "Our country's white liquor market is too big; business is not something one or two companies can finish."

Zhou Andong finished a bowl of rice, picked up a napkin, and wiped his mouth: "You two came to me; is it about the Japanese financial crisis?"

Wu Hongkang and Zhang Shenghui looked at each other, and both looked at Zhou Andong at the same time.

"You could guess this?"

Zhou Andong smiled: "When have you ever invited me to dinner when there was nothing wrong?"

"That's true!" Zhang Shenghui didn't deny it: "I saw the news that the Japanese government and companies took out 13 billion USD to rescue the market. Can we really win?"

Zhou Andong curled his lips: "Do you know how much should have been invested in the 1992 pound crisis?"

Wu Hongkang shook his head: "I don't know!"

Zhou Andong held up three fingers: "30 billion, and it didn't even splash a drop of water. And this Japanese crisis is different from the pound crisis.

Since the Plaza Accord, the Japanese economy has plummeted. The real estate collapse two years ago dealt a heavy blow to the already declining economy.

Now, the Japanese financial industry, the Japanese manufacturing industry, and the Japanese Ministry of Finance have exposed scandals one after another, and have lost the trust of the people. In such a situation, a few 13 billions may not be able to stabilize the Japanese stock market."

"Then we are relieved."

Wu Hongkang let out a long sigh. Those funds were either borrowed or loaned; if they were all thrown into the Japanese stock market, he wouldn't be able to pay them back for the rest of his life.

"There's nothing to worry about." Zhou Andong said seriously: "Next, I have something to tell you."

Wu Hongkang and Zhang Shenghui immediately sat up straight; it was the first time they had seen Zhou Andong so serious.

Zhou Andong picked up the teacup and took a sip: "About the issue of the shares of 'Brave to the End of the World' (Yongchuang Tianya)."

Wu Hongkang was stunned: "What's the problem with the shares of 'Brave to the End of the World'?"

Zhou Andong picked up the chopsticks again, picked up the chicken cubes, and put them in his mouth.

"Don't you want to hold the shares of 'Brave to the End of the World' in your own hands?"

Wu Hongkang and Zhang Shenghui looked at each other again, but neither spoke.

Zhou Andong continued: "In the Japanese stock market this time, you must have earned a lot. If you want to get the shares of 'Brave to the End of the World' in your own hands, you have to take action now."

Wu Hongkang and Zhang Shenghui were very tempted. When the three of them joined forces to build the brewery, whether it was Zhao Hongxing or Qin Chi, there were voices of opposition.

It's just that the prestige of the two of them in the factory was very high, and those voices of opposition were suppressed by them. So, if it were before the year, it would be easy for them to get the shares.

But now, ever since 'Brave to the End of the World' became a sponsor of the football league, its fame has become bigger and bigger, and its sales have become higher and higher. It's probably not easy to get the shares out of the factory.

Zhang Shenghui expressed his concerns: "Old Zhou, ever since 'Brave to the End of the World' sponsored the football league, it's no longer a small local factory, but nationally famous.

If we want to get the shares, there will definitely be resistance. Even if we finally get them, we will be criticized, and even be made a big deal of by others."

Wu Hongkang also echoed: "I also think this matter is not easy to handle. It's not an easy thing to get the shares out of the factory; I'm afraid it will cause unnecessary trouble."

"Do you know why 'Brave to the End of the World' is only sold in the Three North Provinces and not sold nationwide?"

Zhou Andong looked at him and continued: "One is the marketing strategy, and the other is to get the shares in the hands of Zhao Hongxing and Qin Chi. We can't make the winery so fast, otherwise the price we have to pay would be too high."

A warm current surged through the whole body of Wu Hongkang and Zhang Shenghui; they were truly moved.

It turned out that Zhou Andong had already planned this at this time. To know such a confidant friend, there are no regrets in this life.

"If you have this idea, I will let Gu Bing talk to Zhao Hongxing and Qin Chi. When you get the money, the shares will be redistributed."

Zhou Andong had many considerations in doing this. Gu Bing didn't have shares in 'Brave to the End of the World' and could take this opportunity to get shares.

There was also the most important thing: one day Wu Hongkang would not be in the position of the Zhao Hongxing Brewery. Once 'Brave to the End of the World' grew bigger, someone would definitely be jealous and intervene.

Especially Qin Chi, which was more threatening than Zhao Hongxing. Once it was ruined by Zhang Shenghui, some people would definitely not be reconciled and would set their sights on 'Brave to the End of the World'.

By that time, even he, Zhou Andong, couldn't say anything. After all, Qin Chi was a shareholder, and it was only right for them to arrange people to the brewery.

If Zhao Hongxing and Qin Chi sent some capable people over, he, Zhou Andong, would definitely beat gongs and drums to welcome them, but was that possible?

Zhou Andong could know with his butt that when that time really came, those who could enter 'Brave to the End of the World' would definitely be those who knew how to drill and flatter, those who were flies and dogs.

These people who were officials in state-owned enterprises all had a common problem: they were high-minded but low-skilled, didn't understand but pretended to understand, and liked to point fingers, with laymen guiding experts.

Therefore, Zhou Andong had this consideration before the year. He must stifle such a crisis in the cradle and not give those moths a chance to gnaw at the brewery. ===== CHAPTER 1985 =====
