The richest man

Chapter 154 Coca-Cola (big chapter)
If you want to sell instant noodles in Asia, the preparatory work is very important, mainly the distribution channels.

Hong Kong is no problem, ParknShop has a large share of the retail market!
But in other countries and regions, ParknShop has fewer branches.

Hutchison Whampoa only spends 2000 million Hong Kong dollars to expand Watsons and ParknShop supermarkets, which is a drop in the bucket.At present, we can only expand the steps of ParknShop Supermarket in the Hong Kong market.

Outside the port, we can only cooperate with other retailers as much as possible.

In the next period of time, the progress of the project will be relatively tight.

TV dramas, cartoons, comics, the trinity, on the premise of ensuring the quality, are rushing to speed up the production speed.

Hutchison Whampoa has also started research on instant noodles, and plans to launch Master Kong instant noodles and Master Kong raccoon crispy noodles.

Zhang Jun is really too lazy to name it, so he just uses it.

In the early days,

Master Kong Instant Noodles is going to launch five types of instant noodles: Master Kong Laotan Sauerkraut Beef Noodles, Braised Beef Noodles, Golden Soup Fatty Beef Noodles, Spicy Beef Noodles and Tomato Fresh Vegetable Noodles.

Master Kong's Little Raccoon Noodles is ready to launch five flavors: spiced beef, scallion beef, cumin barbecue, spicy crab, and seaweed.

The logo of Master Kong’s instant noodles is a bit different from the logo of Master Kong’s Little Raccoon Noodles. The latter not only has the logo of Master Kong, but also a fat and cute little raccoon. The logo also mainly highlights the cartoon raccoon, which makes it clear at a glance You can know that this is the little raccoon crispy noodles under Master Kong.

Of course, Laotan sauerkraut is widely loved by consumers because of its unique taste and full of sourness. As a conscientious entrepreneur, the supply chain of raw materials must be clean and hygienic.Once the scale of Master Kong's instant noodles is established, it is best to directly purchase raw material suppliers and process the production by itself, which not only saves costs, but also ensures quality, so as not to prevent thunderstorms in the future due to hygiene reasons.

It takes a certain amount of time to develop instant noodle flavors, and then it is to build a complete and high-quality supply chain system, establish factories, open up sales channels, plan marketing, etc...

After careful calculation, it will take at least one or two months of preparation time.

During this period, part of the TV series, cartoons and comics should have been completed, and instant noodles can be used for marketing at that time.

After the instant noodle business was properly arranged, Zhang Jun focused his energy on drinks, taking the lead in focusing on Coca-Cola.

----

"Tomorrow morning, the Coca-Cola Company of the United States will send personnel to negotiate with us!" Ma Shimin said. On his desk is a drink that is currently popular in Hong Kong.

Zhang Jun was attracted by a milk drink packaged in a glass bottle at first sight.

Vitasoy, an inexpensive and protein-rich soy milk drink.It can be seen in small shops and restaurants on the streets of Hong Kong, and in Hong Kong movies such as "Sweet Honey" and "Shaolin Football".In a way, Vitasoy can be seen as a symbol of Hong Kong what Coca-Cola is to Americans.

"We'll talk about Coca-Cola when they come. Do you know about Vitasoy?" Zhang Jun asked.

Ma Shimin nodded and replied: "I have learned about it specifically. Vitasoy soy milk was developed by the founder Dr. Luo Guixiang. It was launched on April 1940, 4. It has been 3 years and has been widely loved by consumers!"

Damn, it has been established for so many years and has a long history. I originally planned to buy this company, not to mention whether they are willing to sell it. The purchase price alone is too much for me to bear!

Instead of this, it is better to buy the formulas of Red Bull and Wanglaoji and develop these two products with all our strength.

Another one, soy milk can never be compared with milk.

Compared with Yili and Mengniu, the annual revenue of Vitasoy is 10 times lower.

"In the future, if I have more money, I can buy this company and supplement the types of drinks..." Zhang Jun murmured.

----

The next day, representatives of Coca-Cola came, and the two sides quickly started negotiations.

"Hello, Mr. Zhang, it's a great honor to meet you. I like all the albums you have released. You are a great musical genius! In addition, you are also a very successful entrepreneur. A good cooperative relationship can be reached!" George James, the head of the delegation sent by the Coca-Cola Company, flattered Zhang Jun as soon as they met.

"Mr. James, I'm glad you like my album." Zhang Jun reached out to shake hands with each other, smiled slightly, and said, "I believe we can be good partners!"

Coca-Cola Company intends to explore the Asian market, and Hutchison Whampoa is a very suitable partner.

Not only because of the strength of Hutchison Whampoa, it has a platform channel like ParknShop.More importantly, the new boss of Hutchison Whampoa is Zhang Jun.

Not to mention Zhang Jun's fame can greatly improve Coca-Cola's sales, but the media companies he has mastered in Asia are enough to make Coca-Cola pay attention.

Today, the Hong Kong Daily Group invests heavily in newspaper mergers and acquisitions in Asia, and has become one of the regional newspaper giants.

Legendary Manga Magazine is the largest manga magazine company in Asia, and only short of launching the Japanese version of Manga Weekly in Japan.At present, Shogakukan and Shueisha are still partners, but in the next step, Legendary Manga Magazine Company will cancel its work and launch itself as a manga magazine.

The arcade machines developed by the legendary game company are popular all over the world.

The Coca-Cola Company attaches great importance to this cooperation and is full of expectations.

I hope that with the help of Zhang Jun, Coca-Cola will sell well in Asia!

As a result, the negotiations between Hutchison Whampoa and Coca-Cola went smoothly.

The conditions offered by Coca-Cola are very loose and sincere.

The markets of Hong Kong, Taiwan, mainland China, and Southeast Asia are all handed over to Hutchison Whampoa, but it is not an exclusive authorization.

Even so, Zhang Jun was very satisfied.

There are so many Asian markets that one company can't handle them all.

Moreover, it is impossible for Coca-Cola to limit its suppliers to one company. If something goes wrong with this company, wouldn't Coca-Cola suffer huge losses.

A week later, the two parties signed a cooperation agreement.

To establish a joint venture bottling plant in Hong Kong, Hutchison Whampoa invested 600 million Hong Kong dollars, holding 60% of the shares, and Coca-Cola contributed part of the money and technology brands, holding 40% of the shares.

"Happy cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation!"

After this cooperation is won, as long as Coca-Cola is promoted in Hong Kong, the income will not be low.

After signing the contract, a smile appeared on Zhang Jun's face.

Cutting off the Swire Group, laid the foundation for Hutchison Whampoa's Coca-Cola beverage business.

In the future, the annual income of tens of billions should probably fall into the hands of Hutchison Whampoa with a high probability.

Zhang Jun asked Ma Shimin to put the contract in the safe, and then ordered: "In the evening, in the name of Hutchison Whampoa, hold a press conference to announce our cooperation with Coca-Cola!"

At present, Hutchison Whampoa's performance in the stock market is fluctuating, and a large number of institutions are dancing around here, making retail investors miserable.

As a result, stockholders, newspapers, and the media turned their finger on Zhang Jun one after another, scolding him bloody.

Now that Hutchison Whampoa has reached a cooperation with Coca-Cola, as soon as the good news comes out, the stock price will definitely rise, and retail investors should be very happy.As for the organization, Zhang Jun didn't care at all.

"Ok!"

Ma Shimin nodded.

At 7 o'clock in the evening, Hilton Hotel.

Reporters flocked to the event, each with expressions of excitement and curiosity.

Recently, the sales of major newspapers have skyrocketed, almost all of which are related to Hutchison Whampoa.

Now, Hutchison Whampoa is going to hold a press conference again, why not exciting?

"You said, what is the purpose of Hutchison Whampoa holding a press conference tonight?"

"I don't know, most likely it's the introduction of Hutchison Whampoa's recent sale of multiple businesses."

"Well, Hutchison Whampoa cut its tail to survive, and it must have recovered a lot of blood."

"..."

At 7:30 in the evening, Ma Shimin and others appeared on the stage of the hotel venue.

After he took the stage, he first introduced the recent situation of Hutchison Whampoa to the public, and then announced the cooperation with Coca-Cola.

As his words fell, there were exclamations from the audience.

A shareholder of Hutchison Whampoa could not help but smile: "Coca-Cola is the most famous beverage company in the United States. If Hutchison Whampoa can reach a cooperation with it, it will definitely make a lot of money! I have waited for so long, and finally got the good news! !"

The reporters were slightly disappointed. It turned out that they just reached a cooperation with the Coca-Cola Company. This is not a big news, but it barely made the headlines.

Of course, the reporters don't know the potential of Coca-Cola. To be honest, if Zhang Jun doesn't have enough money now, or he is definitely willing to invest in Coca-Cola. Now investing in Coca-Cola, the return on investment will be very high!

Fortunately, there are still many opportunities to invest in Coca-Cola in the future, and Zhang Jun is not in a hurry.

The next day, the stock price of Hutchison Whampoa Company really rose sharply, and the stockholders gradually calmed down, and Zhang Jun began to focus on other companies under his name.

Universal Music Company.

"As of now, the global sales volume of "Thriller" is 7735 million copies. Last month's sales dropped to 560 million copies, and this month is estimated to be only 430 million copies..." Tian Meng felt a little regretful, because Zhang Jun is Chinese, although His albums are very popular with Europeans and Americans, but they were still discriminated against, which greatly affected the album sales.

After a pause, Tian Meng comforted Zhang Jun and said, "However, "Thriller" is already the number one selling album in the world, and it is expected to break through the 1 million mark in the next few months!!!"

"By the way, boss, when will you start producing your next album?" Tian Meng looked at Zhang Jun expectantly and asked.

For Zhang Jun, releasing an album is purely for making money.Therefore, he plagiarized European and American songs, which made him feel comfortable and happy.

Moreover, the release of an album can bring him hundreds of millions of dollars in income, making money so fast is simply outrageous!
Many people envy, envy and hate, thinking, I have worked hard all my life, but I can't compare with Zhang Jun's income from an album, what is the reason?

"Next year, it's almost the end of the year, and I'm a little busy!" Zhang Jun replied after thinking for a while.

Anyway, it doesn't take much time to record an album, Zhang Junquan thinks that he goes to karaoke to relax himself.

"Well, it's fine, you take a break, the inspiration may come sooner." Tian Meng nodded.As a senior musician, he knows that it is not easy to create a good song. For a genius like Zhang Jun, it may be difficult to continue to create classics in a short period of time.

Hearing this, Zhang Jun couldn't hold back his laughter, the inspiration for the bullshit, brother all relied on plagiarism.

Forget it, these things are not humane.

"Is Zhu Mingyue's album ready?"

When Zhang Jun was eating and chatting with Zhu Mingyue, he learned that her new album had already been recorded, and an MV was filmed for each song.

All the songs in this album are created by Zhang Jun himself.

Every song was very popular in the previous life, including "Thousand Thousand Que Songs", "The Lost Promise", "Floating Snow", "Infatuated Hearts and Deep Love", "Autumn Comes and Autumn Goes", "Girl Waving Wings", "Woman Flowers" ", "I Do", "Red Bean", "The Shy Rose Blooms Quietly".

As soon as Tian Meng mentioned Zhang Junqi and Zhu Mingyue's album, he immediately excitedly said: "Boss, Ms. Zhu's album has already been produced in the factory, and it is planned to be released on December 12st. The name of the new album is "Women's Flower"!!"

"Well, the plan is pretty good, just do what you said."

Zhang Jun nodded to Tian Meng.

This album is a Chinese album, so it is no problem to be popular in Asia, but if you want to be popular in Europe and America, you still have to rely on English songs.

Zhang Jun has a lot of English songs that are suitable for girls to sing in his heart, which can be put on Zhu Mingyue's second album.As long as the quality of the song is relatively good, coupled with effective publicity, the sales volume will reach tens of millions, and it will not be a problem.In this way, that is a profit of hundreds of millions of dollars!
After leaving Huanyu Music Company, Zhang Jun went to Phoenix TV, DreamWorks and Legend Comic Magazine to learn about the progress of "Water Margin".

The artists of DreamWorks and Legendary Comic Magazine have joined hands to complete the comic image of No. 108 hero of "Water Margin".

The Legendary toy company even turned the manga characters into cards.

Zhang Jun looked at it and was quite satisfied. The style, the comic image style is slightly more Chinese style, but it still has a strong Japanese comic style, which looks a little cute.

Although a part of the comic image of the characters has been produced, the script is still being polished. It is now November, and it may not be until early next year that DreamWorks will complete the production of the first episode.

"Boss, the "Spiderman" animation has been completed, with a total of 42 episodes. "Chu Liuxiang" animation has also produced ten episodes. Would you like to watch it today?" Liu Zhan, the general manager of DreamWorks, asked Zhang Jun.

"Okay, I'll watch a few episodes of "Spider-Man" first, and then a few episodes of "Chu Liuxiang"!" Zhang Jun nodded curiously.

The "Spider-Man" animation will be released in Europe and America. By then, selling toys can make a lot of money!
The live-action version of "Spider-Man" can also be filmed.

The "Chu Liuxiang" TV series, cartoons and comics are launched together. It is no problem that this IP is popular in Asia, and it must be able to earn a lot of money.

Zhang Jun was in a good mood. Under the leadership of Liu Zhan, he came to a tea room and started watching cartoons...
