Abandoned the Immortal Cultivator, returned to his hometown to farm and sing

Chapter 1141 1132. The Thousand-Year-Old Fox Plays Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio
What to do if things come to a standstill?
Then just pretend it doesn't exist.

Bianchi changed the subject and questioned Jacques again, "President Jacques, why didn't you implement the response measures decided by the headquarters?"

To be honest, it is inappropriate for Bianchi to go in person. He should send a younger brother to ask.

But he no longer cared.

Speaking of this, Jacques got angry and slammed the table again. "A century-old perfume manuscript, customized files for celebrities? Perfume archaeology laboratory, AR technology? Carbon footprint? Gender equality?"

Jacques read out the headquarters' response strategies one by one in a rhetorical tone, and the more he spoke, the stronger the sarcasm became. In the end, it turned into ridicule, and he even clapped his hands. "Middle East, gender equality? Very good, very good."

Suddenly, his smile disappeared, his eyes widened, he stared at Bianchi and asked sternly: "One hundred and seventy, a full one hundred and seventy major customers have questioned the company and banned all relatives from buying all of our products. The original words were, 'I will never let you creeps make a penny!'"

Is this a retelling of the original words? This is an excuse to curse.

Many executives present were actually unaware of the response strategy issued by the headquarters for the Middle East region.

After hearing this, they all looked strange and glanced at Bianchi vaguely.

I don't know why I was mocking him in my heart. This guy has been in Europe for too long. He must have gone crazy. Why would he go to the Middle East to do this?
Bianchi's face turned red and white. These strategies were formulated by him. He did not think much about it at the time. After all, the financial report had not been released yet.

He didn't know what the specific losses would be.

That's Bianchi's biggest problem, arrogance.

This huge company with hundreds of billions of euros is second to none and has its people around, including politicians and aristocrats. It is so high up in the sky that it cannot come down. It has no mood to care about what is happening in the world.

However, admitting his mistake was impossible, and Bianchi continued to be stubborn, "There are two more items, why didn't Mr. Jacques mention them?"

Jacques was waiting for a long time and smiled. "It's a private perfume studio. The starting price of high-end custom perfume is 26,000 US dollars. It's very popular. All the invited guests are praising it."

Bianchi finally smiled.

But then came Jacques' but.

"But the sales figures were zero and no one paid for it."

Bianchi's mouth just pulled up, and he was neither laughing nor crying when he heard it. His joy turned into anger, and he asked repeatedly: "Why! You said it was a compliment!"

Jacques sneered, "The studio is in Dubai, next to Zui Ke. All local VIPs have been to Zui Ke. Zui Ke sells for 8,000 US dollars, and you want to sell it for 26,000. It's not as good as Zui Ke. Middle Eastern people are not fools."

Both sides called each other "you you" and no longer used respectful titles.

Middle Eastern people are not fools, what I mean is that Bianchi is a fool.

Of course Bianchi couldn't admit that he was a fool, so he continued to be stubborn, "I don't believe it!"

Jacques ignored him and continued, "The $49 entry-level light luxury perfume has good sales, but all the buyers are ordinary tourists. It has no effect on drunkards. The reason is..."

Jacques pulled two bottles from his bag and placed them side by side on the table.

On the left is a colorful bottle with various patterns painted on the inner wall. As it shakes, a layer of quicksand floats up and the paintings on the bottle begin to move, like a world in every grain of sand, very magical.

There are two symbols written in the corner of the bottle that look like both words and pictures.

The bottle on the right is similar, made of glass, with gradient dye, a pattern printed on the outside, sprinkled with gold powder, and a Dior logo in the corner.

Put them together for comparison...

It's simply unbearable to watch.

A crude imitation.

Princess Delphine was furious about this. What does it mean? With so many brands under her umbrella, she chose to use the Dior logo. Doesn’t she know that she is the CEO of the Dior brand?

Bianchi, how dare you, an outsider, throw dirty water on one of the heirs of the Arnault family!
The other heir, Antoine, also looked unhappy. He was also in competition with Delphine, but he was the global image director of the LVMH Group. If this thing was taken out, it would destroy the reputation of the LVMH Group and their family's property!

He even took the initiative to ask Bianchi to arrest the person who did the job and fire him.

He didn't plan to move Bianchi, but someone had to take the blame. Poor clerk, he was only given a standard of $49, which was the selling price, so what good bottle could he find?

The drunkard's bottle used four art forms: colored glaze, inner painting, quicksand, and bird-and-insect seal script. None of the manufacturers he found could make any of them.

By the way, the bottle is also made by a Chinese manufacturer...
-
The whole meeting turned into a farce.

Bernard Arnault had no choice but to speak in person, overturning all the previous events. The past is over, and who is right and who is wrong should be put aside for the time being. He looked forward and re-planned the response to the drunkard.

And this time we have to start from the overall situation and coordinate with the whole world. It is no longer just a matter of the Middle East. Of course, the Middle East is still the core.

Jacques secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he had passed this hurdle.

Immediately plunged into active discussion again.

LVMH Group's various business departments, headquarters executives, princes and princesses, and provincial governors put their heads together to brainstorm for a little drunk.

A lot of random ideas are listed.

However, out of fear of the "disgusting" methods used by drunkards, no one dares to mention or do the most useful and commonly used methods in commercial competition, such as arson, poisoning, and physical destruction.

Among them, Jacques was the most active and came up with the most ideas.

For example, deep cultural integration and product innovation with the Middle East; breakthroughs in the male market; festival and ritual products; cooperation with Emirates Airlines and Qatar Airways to provide exclusive fragrance experiences in first-class cabins, etc. to attract international tourists.

This also includes hotel fragrance experience.

It can be seen that Jacques proposed mostly mild measures and advocated three-dimensional competition.

However, he packaged his words into a crushing strength.

Since Jacques took the moderate route, Bianchi had to take the radical route.

Defamation, provocation, lawsuit, bribery, etc. were also mentioned.

Of course, there are also those who take advantage of the situation.

For example, the president of the Asia-Pacific region proposed to set up a "European Institute of Oriental Studies" and hire "senior cross-civilization consultants" at high salaries to compete with the drunkard for the right to speak from a cultural perspective.

Tsk, everyone knows that the so-called senior consultant is his mistress. Then you can get some cultural licensing fees, design studios, surveys, tours, lectures, salons and receptions, and after passing them through a few hands, all the funds approved by the company will go into your pocket.

We are all thousand-year-old foxes, so no one should play Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio with anyone else.

Therefore, Jacques responded enthusiastically to the proposal of the Asia-Pacific President, expressed strong support, and made every effort to ensure that the plan was passed.

On the surface, this is also a slow competition, and it is not limited to a moment. This is called a long-term vision.

In fact, the president of the Asia-Pacific region is also a high-ranking official, and he is making alliances...

As for the company's money? It belongs to the company, not to Jacques.
-
The meeting lasted for several hours, and the executives were exhausted both physically and mentally.

But the solutions summarized are enough to publish a business competition textbook.

Unfortunately, after deleting the part about malicious competition that cannot be mentioned, only half of the book is left.

In the end, Arnault and the smooth talker, both moderate and radical, each took half.

It is also divided into several stages.

After each stage is completed, adjustments will be made based on the results.

To be on the safe side, the first phase is just a trial.

Two hours after the meeting ended.

All the plans have been placed on Luo Yihang's desk...
