The rise of a small town in shoe country

Chapter 53
Jin Yunxing brought back the imitated fake trademark from Luoqiao. Jin Yunfei looked at it carefully for a while before he could see the difference between the fake trademark and his real "Yunfei Brand" trademark.

Jin Yunfei frowned and asked: "Third brother, do you know the owner of the fake trademark?"
Jin Yunxing said: Brother, it's enough to save face if someone can tell us about this.It is said that it is us from Hengfeng Street, and at least three shoe factories are counterfeiting our trademarks.

Well, third child, you go on the market day and find out which bastards are doing the tricks.

Not to mention, Jin Yunxing is very good at doing this kind of thing, and he is also very enthusiastic.

It took only three days for Jin Yunxing to report to his elder brother with a few pairs of shoes.

Brother, look, the shoes they make, including the trademark, are exactly the same as ours.Their wholesale price is [-] cents a pair cheaper than ours.

Jin Yunfei asked: Third, where did you get it?Who is the owner of these shoes?
Jin Yunxing said: Don't worry, brother, my method is reasonable and legal, and it was done with the help of the people at the consignment station.As for the manufacturer of these shoes, you may not even dream of it, it is related to your old classmate Xiao Zhanguo.

No way, did you make a mistake, how could Xiao Zhanguo do such a thing?

Brother, I mean it has something to do with Xiao Zhanguo.Those who counterfeited our trademark were Xiao Zhanguo's neighbors, relatives and friends.And not three, but a full six.

Jin Yunfei snorted: So, Xiao Zhanguo should know about this.

Jin Yunxing said: Definitely.What's even more exasperating is that, apart from the identical trademark, the styles and materials are exactly the same, and even the soles come from the same sole factory and the same set of molds.

Jin Yunfei looked at those pairs of shoes again, and asked: Third, are they really the same?
Jin Yunxing picked up a pair of shoes, weighed them a few times, and wondered: It seems that they are lighter than our shoes.

Jin Yunfei took out the spring scale from the drawer, weighed the shoe, took the scissors, cut the upper of the shoe, and weighed the sole.

Jin Yunxing understood: he had tampered with the soles of the shoes, cutting corners, and each pair was about two or three.Brother, the shoe sole factory put negatives on the mold, the shoe sole factory makes more money, and the counterfeiters can also make more money. They are working together.

Nodding his head, Jin Yunfei asked: Third, what do you think we should do?

Jin Yunxing had a lot of tricks, rolled his eyes, and said, "Brother, I will take a few people to the shoe market during the market, and catch them on the spot."

Not good, not good.Jin Yunfei shook his head and said.

Either...or straight to the point, I came to point out and warn them.

Not good, not good either.

Jin Yunxing came up with five or six "ideas" in succession, all of which were denied by Jin Yunfei.

Brother, this doesn’t work, and that doesn’t work either, so tell me what you can do.

Third child, you treat your head with a headache, and treat your feet with a sore foot. Press down on the gourd and float up the ladle.In our Hengfeng Township alone, there are one or two hundred shoe factories or self-employed individuals who make shoes. Anyone may counterfeit our trademark, and you can't control it.

Jin Yunxing said impatiently: "I understand the truth, brother, just tell me the solution, and I'll just do it."

Jin Yunfei also has no good solution. The shoes are the same as the clothes. The styles and styles are open, and anyone can make them. There is no problem of counterfeiting, except for the company's exclusive trademark.

But it won’t work if we don’t take measures. Everyone knows that the shoes of Yunfei Shoes Factory sell well, the quality is high and the price is high.

After pondering for a long time, Jin Yunfei finally came up with a solution that he thought was feasible.

Jin Yunfei asked his second brother to go out and investigate those self-employed individuals using counterfeit trademarks and which suppliers their shoe materials came from.

It only took a day to run back and report to Jin Yunfei.

Brother, I found out that those guys are all Zheng Sanbao's customers, and even the soles of their shoes are purchased from Zheng Sanbao's relatives.Brother, I did the math, including the soles, more than 80.00% of their raw materials come from Zheng Sanbao.

Jin Yunfei smiled with his mouth curled up, and ordered: "My third child, from now on, let's quickly and minimize our purchases from Zheng Sanbao's family."As for the soles of Zheng Sanbao's relatives, they will be discontinued from now on, and soles from several other sole factories will be used immediately.

Jin Yunxing said: Zheng Sanbao's relatives sent 2000 pairs of shoe soles yesterday, and there are more than [-] pairs that are useless.

When Jin Yunxing heard this, he patted the table and said, "You can do whatever you want, that's great."

Brother, what shall we do?
Jin Yunfei said: Find something wrong with the sole of the shoe and return it.

Jin Yunxing said: But there is nothing wrong with the sole of the shoe.

Jin Yunfei glared at his second brother, and snorted: Are you sure there is nothing wrong?
Jin Yunxing was stunned for a moment, then grinned happily: Hehe...Brother, you are ruthless.

Jin Yunfei smiled and said: Go quickly, the sooner the better.

Another day later, Zheng Sanbao came to the door.

Zheng Sanbao first threw a cigarette to Jin Yunfei, and then threw a question: Da Fei, what's going on?You don't buy my raw materials, and you don't buy my relatives' soles. Are you planning to stop doing business with me?

Jin Yunfei was not in a hurry, but he opened his mouth straight to the point and went straight to the point.Sambo, you should know that someone not only copied my shoes, but also copied my trademark.The price of their shoes is three to fifty cents cheaper per pair than mine, which has seriously affected my business.I really can't help it, I can't stop them, and I can't stop them.The only thing I can do is to cut with them. I don't use any raw materials they use.

Zheng Sanbao blushed, and said embarrassedly: Da Fei, I'm sorry, I know about this, and Xiao Zhanguo also knows about it.Those who made counterfeits were all from the Xiao family village, and they were all relatives, friends and neighbors of Xiao Zhanguo.Of course, Xiao Zhanguo also told them, but they didn't listen, so they had to let it go.

Sambo, I won't blame you and Xiao Zhanguo.

Da Fei, what you said made me even more ashamed.

Jin Yunfei stared at Zheng Sanbao, and said with a dark face: But, I cannot forgive your relatives.We have spoken beforehand. The sample of the sole mold was provided by me. The soles can be sold to others, but one cannot favor one over another.But he was lucky. The soles he sold to others were reduced by two or three taels per pair, and the sales price was reduced by more than three triangles.Three treasures, think about it, how can I sell my shoes, can I still sell them?

Da Fei, you are right, Xiao Zhanguo and I are both responsible, and Xiao Zhanguo and I are responsible for handling this matter.But our business has to continue, we have to continue to do it.

Zheng Sanbao left in a hurry.

The problem was someone else's. The board hit Zheng Sanbao, which was a bit unfair to Zheng Sanbao, but Jin Yunfei was also helpless.

But the matter is not over yet, just as the old saying goes, I pressed down the gourd and raised the ladle.

On another market day, the second younger brother Jin Yunxing went to the shoe market, ran back and said: Big brother, you told me.Those companies are no longer imitating our trademarks, but there are more than a dozen others.

Jin Yunfei frowned again, it seemed that it was necessary to solve the problem thoroughly.
