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

Chapter 860 854. Attack? Or retreat?
When you hear that you are the one treating.

Zhang Xiaoru was very puzzled, "Why me?"

Liu Piaoliang laughed again, "Because you are the weak point."

"Why am I weak?" Zhang Xiaoru was unwilling.

"Because you are young, naive and inexperienced, and they must have done some investigations, they know your identity, they know our background, and they know that Brother Luo is the backbone behind all of us. Xiaoru, you are naturally the breakthrough point."

"Besides, after the beheading, we will definitely have resentment. If you are defeated by the sugar-coated bullets at this time, it can also become the fuse of our internal discord."

"It's a good thing, so why not do it?"

Zhang Xiaoru finally understood and praised him sincerely: "Brother, you really know a lot."

Liu Piaoliang was a little pleased. "It's just a small matter. It's a common method. I've seen it many times. It's nothing surprising."

I have grown a lot in the past two years. The business world is like a battlefield, and I have experienced a lot of intrigue and deception.

Then Zhang Xiaoru turned her face in anger, "I knew there was something wrong with those guys. I thought I was charming."

It turns out that he had a falling out with those socialites.

Liu Piaoliang counseled, "Look at it in a positive way. They are willing to give you a sugar-coated bullet, which means they are really threatened. If it were just ordinary things, they wouldn't care. Among the 20 domestic brands that came together this time, how many have received such treatment?"

"That's because my brother's perfume is good, much better than theirs." Zhang Xiaoru immediately became proud again, "I have smelled all the ones at the exhibition. What the hell are they? The smell is weird. And the one that won the grand prize is said to be the most classic classical chypre in the 21st century. Bah, it really smells like a big pot of sour wood soaked in disinfectant, and then soaked in a Middle Eastern old man who hasn't taken a bath for forty days. Yue~~"

This adjective describes what the old Middle Eastern man is doing by cooking someone else's food without taking a bath. Does he think that the person has been marinated with spices?
But that's what classic chypre smells like, a strong, strange smell that fits in with the classic use of European perfume to cover up body odor.

Liu Piaoliang shook her head at Zhang Xiaoru's analysis. "I don't think it's because of the product quality. Just like McDonald's and Kaifeng, they don't care about burger shops that taste better than them."

The examples Liu Piaoliang gave are not very sufficient, but quality should not be the main reason. Otherwise, with so many factories producing counterfeit luxury goods in China, some of which are much better than the originals, why don’t they create their own brands and dominate the market?
Because it's not good enough to make a difference.

The perfume that Luo Yihang matched was made using magic, and all the raw materials came from Ping'an Gou. It was more or less contaminated with spiritual energy. Compared with ordinary perfumes, it was like the difference between vegetables nourished by spiritual energy and ordinary vegetables.

No matter how organic it is, or how much farmyard manure it has, it can never compare to spiritual energy!
Although the old European aristocrats are old-fashioned, they are very shrewd when it comes to their own interests.

"Okay, I can't think of any reason now." Luo Yihang knocked on the table, interrupting the discussion between Liu Piaoliang and Zhang Xiaoru. "Since it has happened, let's think about how to solve it."

It was Zhang Xiaoru again, the first to come up with an idea.

"I don't believe they can cover up everything. We can't get into the core locations of luxury goods, so how about going to remote places, shopping malls, or small shops on the street? With the quality of our perfume, I don't believe we can't sell it. By the way, we can also create an urban legend and a mysterious shop, just like the plots often seen in online articles."

Are the plots in online articles feasible in real life?

It is not impossible to develop step by step from a small street shop. That is what Qiao Xiaomao did.

Luo Yihang believes in the appeal of his things.

But he was about to nod.

But Ke Shaotong shook his head gently.
"It's not feasible. We can't get into a shopping mall. As for a small street shop, it's okay if it doesn't get popular, but if it really gets popular, I'm afraid it will be beheaded."

"What specific method of beheading will be used?" Luo Yihang asked.

"Protests, lawsuits, media smear campaigns, millions of workers depend on them for food and clothing. If all else fails, gangs can smash, loot and buy things for free. This is Europe, it's very chaotic, and there are demonstrations every day. You won't be angry if they burn down your store."

"Anyway, we can't enter a large commercial center. It's normal for ordinary street shops to have accidents."

"The police may not necessarily intervene, and even if they do, compensating for the losses will be useless. The market has been lost."

"After all, if things get smashed, looted, or set on fire, no matter how good the place is, customers won't dare to come."

In fact, Ke Shaotong had already thought about this idea, but after analysis, he found it not feasible.

"It's really hard to deal with both the black and white worlds on someone else's territory."

Luo Yihang and Liu Piaoliang both fell into deep thought.

After thinking for a while and there seemed to be no solution, Luo Yihang had to settle for the second best and asked, "If we're not in Europe, why don't we go somewhere else to avoid the limelight?" "There aren't many options elsewhere," Ke Shaotong opened her notebook and introduced.

"The luxury goods industry is integrated across Europe and the U.S. It doesn't work in Europe, and it doesn't work in North America either. We've all been in agreement, and the key commercial centers won't offend those luxury brands for us."

“Let’s not talk about South America and Africa, they are not markets at all.”

“Eastern Europe can come in and they can’t control it, but Eastern Europe doesn’t have the purchasing power.”

"There is a market in Asia for everything."

"But since we have chosen Asia, we might as well just return to China. Although our plan to make Zuike flourish outside the city and become famous inside the city has failed, with our strength, there will be no problem returning to China, and they can't do anything about it. This is also the solution for most domestic companies that encounter similar problems."

Rationally speaking, Ke Shaotong is inclined to return to her home country. Although she has been the most angry these days, considering the company's development, it is not cost-effective to expand into overseas markets now as there are too many obstacles.

It is better to continue to consolidate the domestic market.

If you come back...

Liu Piaoliang nodded slightly. He was inclined to return to the domestic market and not play with old Europe anymore.

Zhang Xiaoru even said, "China is our home turf. With our reputation and perfume quality, we will kill those foreign brands and let them know what pain is."

Wow, this girl is so fierce, and she wants to kill someone. She is so ambitious.

But the subtext is that they feel they cannot win outside and plan to retreat to their homeland to fight. Well, it can be considered a defensive counterattack.

But Luo Yihang was a little unwilling.

"If we return it to China, it will be like being blocked. Besides, it's meaningless to return to China. The price of our products is too high. I can't bear to make money from Chinese people."

"Are they really as solid as a rock? There's not even a crack?"

Ke Shaotong thought for a moment and said, "Yes, the Middle East."

"The Middle East has many wealthy people, and it is also the main gathering place for wealthy people from all over the world. All of them are consumers of luxury goods, so the market is huge."

“But at the same time, it is also the most competitive place for luxury brands.”

"In addition, the Middle East is ruled by the royal family and the princes, and other foreign companies cannot exert their power. At least we can avoid covert actions when we enter there, and the competition is limited to commercial means."

“But at the same time, we don’t have channels in the Middle East, so whether we can get in is a big problem.”

The Middle East that Ke Shaotong refers to are the wealthy countries such as Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Qatar.

If you open a shop there, you can cut off the black ones and only play with the white ones.

As for how to get in...

"Mansur! Mansur is from the UAE and he's a prince." Zhang Xiaoru had another idea.

Ke Shaotong smiled and shook his head. "Mansour is just a prince. There are more than 3,000 princes in the UAE. If the family has no real power, the prince is just a title and can't help much."

"And he is just a sugar-coated bullet, do you dare to believe him?" Liu Piaoliang also said.

"Is that so..." Zhang Xiaoru curled her lips and kept silent.

No wonder Ke Shaotong and Liu Piaoliang are a perfect match with these two people. One goes straight to the core and people's hearts, and the other is responsible for the actual operation.

Luo Yihang knocked on the table and made a decision, "Choosing the Middle East means attacking, choosing the interior means retreating, I will not accept defeat without a fight."

"The domestic market is an alternative plan. As for the Middle East, how to enter? Let me learn about it first..."
