Chapter 166 The richest man in Hong Kong, you should stop sitting
After one or two months of preparation, Quanjude Roast Duck has officially entered the menu of the Panda Fast Food chain.However, Quanjude Roast Duck is not as popular as Li Zetian imagined.

Yu Jingqiu frowned and sighed slightly: "Americans may not like to eat Quanjude roast duck."

Li Zetian shook his head and said, "The taste of the roast duck is very good, the sales volume should not be mediocre...Political dignitaries from all over the world who visited China ate the BJ Quanjude roast duck, and all gave their thumbs up!"

As he spoke, Li Zetian fell into deep thought.

After a while, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said: "It may be that the publicity is not enough, I have thought of a good way. Let Dad personally deliver a Quanjude Roast Duck to President Carter of the United States, and then use him to make a fuss!"

"Uh, is it okay to use the president for publicity?" Yu Jingqiu half-opened her small mouth, with a look of astonishment and a hint of worry on her face at the same time.

"It's okay, there have been publishers who used the president to advertise before,"

Li Zetian smiled slowly, "This publisher has a batch of unsalable books that have been out of stock for a long time, and he suddenly came up with an idea to send a book to the president and ask for opinions over and over again. The president, who is busy with government affairs, doesn't want to tangle with him , Then he replied: "This book is good." The publisher advertised: "There are books that the president likes for sale." So these books were sold out.

Soon, the publisher had another book that could not be sold, so he sent another one to the president.The President was fooled once and tried to ridicule him by saying: 'This book is terrible. After hearing this, the publisher changed his mind and advertised again: "There are books that the president hates for sale." 'Many people rushed to buy it out of curiosity, and the book was sold out.

For the third time, the publisher sent the book to the President, who accepted the lessons of the previous two and did not give any reply.The publisher advertised: "There are books that make it difficult for the president to draw conclusions, so buy them quickly." 'It was snatched up again.The president couldn't laugh or cry. The publisher mobilized the tiger, the president, and made a fortune. "

Yu Jingqiu was surprised: "Uh, you want us to learn from this publisher..."

"Hehe, that's right, that's exactly it! No matter what his attitude is, we can use it to hype the Quanjude Roast Duck as a gift!" Li Zetian chuckled, "What do you think of this idea?"

"It's good, it's just a bit too..." Yu Jingqiu shook her head halfway through speaking, "I still think it's a bit inappropriate..."

"What's inappropriate, the president of the United States is not China~~ Chairman. Besides, this is the last year of President Carter's term. Next year, the United States will run for a new president. With his current public opinion, he will definitely fail the election. You know Well, if the presidential election fails, he is nothing. We use him to hype, but he has nothing to lose, so he has no need to offend us! At most, he can laugh it off..."

"Are you so sure he will lose the election?"

"It's not difficult to analyze," Li Zetian said with a smile. "During his tenure, Carter rashly ordered the special forces to launch "Operation Eagle Claw" to save American hostages in Iran. His reputation among the people plummeted. I think he is one of the US presidents with the worst performance. However, he actually did some good things. During his tenure as US president, China and the United States formally established diplomatic relations, and China and the United States reached three agreements, recognizing China's position on the fact that there is only one China and Taiwan is a part of China recognizes that the People's Republic of China is the sole legal government of China; since January 1979, 1, China and the United States have mutually recognized and established diplomatic relations, and exchanged ambassadors on March 1 , to establish an embassy..."

Li Zetian thought for a while and said, "At this time, Panda Express is offering Quanjude Roast Duck, a Chinese specialty, and Carter will be very happy to accept it."

"Well, it makes sense!" Yu Jingqiu nodded, and then asked with a smile, "How did you come up with these crooked ideas?"

"Read more!"

Indeed, Li Zetian read a lot of books.Now a billionaire, he still finds two hours a day to read.There is no end to learning. Only by making yourself stronger every day can you keep up with the pace of the times and master this huge family business.

The next day, according to Li Zetian's suggestion, Yu Jingshan sent Quanjude Roast Duck to President Carter and asked him how it tasted.

After eating a small piece of roast duck, President Carter couldn't help giving a thumbs up and praised: "Well, it's very delicious. The skin is crispy and the meat is tender, and the aroma is tangy. It's just amazing!"

"Mr. President, can we take a photo together?"

"No problem at all!"

After taking the photo, Yu Jingshan secretly smiled and said goodbye to President Carter.

Within two days, a group photo of Yu Jingshan and President Carter appeared in the newspaper, and it was written: "Panda Fast Food's new dish 'Quanjude Roast Duck' was praised by President Carter, calling it a peerless delicacy!"

President Carter's name was really useful. After reading the newspaper, people flocked to the Panda Fast Food restaurant to order a Quanjude Roast Duck. For a while, the supply of Quanjude Roast Duck was in short supply, and people had to wait in line!As a result, the line got longer and longer, causing a sensation and attracting media reporters!

So on the second day, more media reported on Panda Express and Quanjude Roast Duck, which led to more and more people coming here admiringly.

"Is Quanjude Roast Duck really that delicious? There are so many people queuing up?"

"Hey buddy, aren't you in line too?"

"Oh, I just want to taste it to see what it smells like. It smells pretty good, though..."

"I'm the same as you! It is said that Quanjude roast duck is a famous delicacy in China, and the emperor of the Qing Dynasty even signed it himself! Do you know the emperor? It has more power than our American president..."

"..."

After a lot of hype, Quanjude Roast Duck became popular in the United States, and the business of Panda Express skyrocketed in vain.Although the price of the roast duck is very expensive, there is an endless stream of diners.

Yu Jingshan couldn't help but consider opening more branches.

President Carter smiled helplessly, knowing that he was being used by Yu Jingshan, but he didn't do anything, just laughed it off.

Beverly Hills villa.

Yu Jingqiu said: "The roast duck at the Panda fast food restaurant is too popular. KFC and McDonald's Western fast food giants feel a little threat, and they all start to study roast duck!"

Hearing this, Li Zetian felt dumbfounded, "We have authentic technology, inherited from a century-old restaurant, and we are not afraid of competition. They develop roast duck, which is actually promoting us. People will compare the roast duck of their fast food restaurant with Quanjude roast duck... "

After speaking, the phone rang suddenly, and he walked over to answer it.

It was Li Zetian's father Li Chengzhi who called.

On the phone, Li Zetian learned the news that Li Jiacheng was negotiating with HSBC and wanted to buy the equity of the old British-funded firm - "Hutchison Whampoa" from HSBC.

Li Zetian vaguely remembered that it was Li Jiacheng who acquired Hutchison Whampoa, which made him eligible to become the richest man in Hong Kong!

"The richest man in Hong Kong, Li Jiacheng, please don't sit down, I'll cut you off..." Li Zetian murmured after hanging up the phone.
