Chapter 443: Capital Plunder

Du Chunlai didn't quite understand: "We have a good relationship with Bawangsi, we can get goods at any time, there is no need to put a large amount of funds on this."

Zhou Andong handed the newspaper to Du Chunlai: "Look!"

Du Chunlai took it and said confusedly: "Pepsi Cola acquires Beibingyang?"

Zhou Andong nodded: "Do you also think it has nothing to do with us?"

Du Chunlai indeed thought so, but Zhou Andong's words made him realize that this matter was not as simple as he thought.

Because Zhou Andong is a god-like existence in the eyes of all of them, often seeing crises they cannot see under the calm water surface.

Zhou Andong picked up the teacup and came to the windowsill. I don't know when, snowflakes were drifting outside.

"I predict that Pepsi's acquisition of Beibingyang is just the beginning. Next, Pepsi and Coca-Cola will massively acquire our national brand beverage factories. Bawangsi is definitely their target."

"Next year our beverage will be on the market, directly forming competition with the two colas. Once Bawangsi is acquired, no matter if it is acquired by Pepsi or Coca-Cola, they will definitely try every means to suppress us and prohibit the sale of concentrated fruit juice to us."

"More importantly, other beverage factories, in order to cooperate with the two colas, will definitely list us on the blacklist. By then, Jiang Xiaomei may be forced to stop production."

Du Chunlai said in disbelief: "So serious?"

"Hmph!" Zhou Andong snorted coldly and took a shallow sip of tea.

"Europe and the United States have a history of about two hundred years, relying on plunder and colonialism, bloodshed and slaughter, gradually moving towards strength. But today's China, they dare not come to grab with guns and cannons, but they can use another way to plunder, which is capital."

"So, don't think these capitalists are too kind. Their existence is actually for plunder. If we don't take precautions, we might be eaten until not even bones are left."

Zhou Andong has experienced such pain, watching so many national technology enterprises being suppressed and choked by the United States without a bottom line, but being helpless. He is really angry. For a period of time, he was so angry that he didn't even watch the news. Therefore, in this life, he will absolutely not let such things happen again.

Zhou Andong was silent for a while: "In fact, we are not afraid of foreign enemies, we are afraid of internal ghosts, internal enemies."

The process of reform and opening up and transition gave enterprises excellent opportunities to seek cooperation with foreign enterprises. In fact, this is nothing. Going out, bringing in, joint ventures with foreign enterprises, sacrificing some benefits, paying some tuition fees, learning advanced management experience from foreign enterprises. Even the relevant departments proposed using the market to exchange for technology, these are all good.

But there are some people who have knelt for too long to the foreign masters and cannot stand up. What is terrible is that they still have a lot of say. They paid a lot of tuition fees, but learned nothing, let alone using the market to exchange for technology.

Even helping foreign capital plunder in the country, and some so-called national enterprises, playing the national sentiment card, cutting leeks in the country, and then subsidizing foreign countries.

The most typical ones are a certain book and a certain car company. The sales price in the country is half or even double that of foreign countries.

Du Chunlai of course doesn't know these, but Zhou Andong's words touched him greatly: "I will contact Bawangsi immediately."

Zhou Andong said: "In addition, purchasing juicing equipment must also be put on the agenda. Build a fruit cellar in the spring of next year. After the New Year, you organize a team to run to the countryside, contact each village, whoever has fruit trees, sign a contract with them, and when the fruit comes down next year, buy it at a price 10% to 20% higher than the market."

"Good!" Du Chunlai agreed, "I will explain it when I go back, and contact the juicing equipment manufacturer first."

Du Chunlai left, Zhou Andong exhaled a long breath, sat down, then leaned against the back of the chair and closed his eyes.

Gu Bing said: "I always feel you are a bit paranoid."

Zhou Andong said softly: "Wait, time will prove everything."

"Bang bang bang..."

The office door was knocked heavily. Before Zhou Andong could speak, a guy dressed in a white suit, white leather shoes, and a red tie, dressed very flamboyantly, walked in.

"Gu, so you are here."

Gu Bing raised his head and said sarcastically: "Yo, Young Master Pu, what kind of wind is blowing today, actually blowing you here."

Pu Zhenrong didn't care, swayed to the sofa and sat down: "Too boring, come over to find you two to play for two days."

Zhou Andong was thinking about the two colas, and then thought of the GATT.

At this time, it is more than a year away from officially joining the GATT, when import tariffs on soybeans, barley, rapeseed, and corn oil will be canceled.

Now our country is still a net exporter of soybeans, accounting for more than 90% of the world market share, and is a well-deserved major soybean producer, with an annual output of about 10 million tons.

But after the signing of the GATT, in just one year, it began to change from a net exporter of soybeans to a net importer of soybeans. At this time, the crisis was already buried. In 2004, the war against Chinese soybeans by the four major grain merchants started.

We suffered a crushing defeat, and domestic oil pressing enterprises were completely wiped out. The soybean market was completely controlled by the four major grain merchants. By 2017, the import volume exceeded 90 million tons, reaching an astonishing 95.54 million tons, becoming the world's largest soybean importer.

"Asleep?" Pu Zhenrong looked at Zhou Andong.

Zhou Andong opened one eye, looked at Pu Zhenrong, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Young Master Pu, is there any business you are willing to do?"

Pu Zhenrong said with little interest: "What business, let's talk about it first."

Zhou Andong said: "Set up a farm, grow grain, raise dairy cows, sell milk."

Pu Zhenrong shook his head fiercely: "Boring, not doing it."

Zhou Andong grinned and started fooling: "If you succeed in this, I guarantee that not only will you earn unimaginable money, but you will also leave your name in history."

"I haven't read books, but don't try to fool me." Pu Zhenrong looked incredulous, "Grow grain, raise cows and sell milk, and I can leave my name in history?"

"Yes!" Zhou Andong nodded very seriously: "Believe me, as long as you do as I say, your name will definitely be engraved on the monument, respected by everyone."

"Especially those who look down on you, such as this guy sitting beside you. By then, he will definitely be envious, jealous, and hateful of you."

Gu Bing blinked, listening to Zhou Andong's words, why do they sound so familiar? It seems he also said similar things to him, and then he got on the pirate ship.

Pu Zhenrong was moved: "You really didn't fool me?"

In fact, whether it is Pu Zhenrong or Gu Bing, these people really want to make some career, let their parents and others see that they are not mud that cannot support the wall. ===== CHAPTER 444 =====
