Chapter 194 Get ready for class!
Time passed day by day, the match factory was on the right track, and Chen Huajiang could take a short break.
"Brother Chen, why can't we put down the matches?"
"You don't know how crazy the market is right now. The day before yesterday, it was one penny for a box, and today it's one penny for two boxes."
"Yesterday I met an old man who bought matches. When he smokes, he strikes ten matches to light a cigarette. He said that he likes to smell the aroma of burning matches."
Er Mao said with a look of amazement. He has never seen such crazy things in his whole life.
What's even crazier is that Chen Huajiang asked them to buy matches like crazy some time ago, and they paid as much as they wanted at two cents.
"Don't worry about this. If you can't put it down, put it in the open air and cover it with a rainproof cloth."
"As long as it's less than two cents, I can eat as much as I can."
"Damn it, do you really treat me, Chen Huajiang, as a soft persimmon? I want to teach them a lesson in the price war."
Chen Huajiang patted Er Mao on the shoulder and said with an angry look on his face.
He is not an idiot, so he naturally knows that all of this is Wu Fugui's trick.
In his eyes, this kind of little trick in business war is so ridiculous that he can't even graduate from kindergarten.
"Okay!" Ermao nodded heavily, but sighed in his heart, Youte Meow was going to be very busy.
At the same time, in the Grain Restaurant, Wu Fugui was so angry that he was almost dead.
"Do you really think I'm an idiot!?"
He looked at the angry faces of the bosses in front of him.
These guys simply regarded him as an idiot, and started a "price war" like crazy to seize the market. You sell it for five cents, I sell it for four cents, he sells it for three cents, and in the end, one penny is worth one box and one penny is two boxes. The next step is probably Free of charge!
"Boss Wu, you are the one who told us to seize the market and squeeze out the state-owned match makers. Otherwise, why don't we make a profit by losing money when we are full?"
"No, don't try to cheat. It's you who says how much money we lose and how much subsidies you give us. Otherwise, how dare I sell matches for a penny? The cost of a box is three cents!"
"You have to pay us today or you won't be able to leave!"
Seeing that Wu Fugui might be cheating, many bosses were unhappy and even stared at him eagerly.
As they said, wouldn't they dare to do this if it weren't for Wu Fugui's guarantee?And according to the agreement, their mission has been completed. At least there are no state-owned matches on the market, and the entire market has been occupied by them.
"You, you!"
Wu Fugui was so angry that his heart was beating faster.
"The match factory over at Chen Huajiang didn't put any matches on the market at all. You cut prices and started a gross price war with no target. Are you fighting ghosts?"
"Damn, look what this is!! Open your dog eyes and see what this is!"
Wu Fugui said through gritted teeth, clapping a box of matches ordered by Grain House with his hand.
For more than a week, he was half angry to death and half depressed.
I never expected that Chen Huajiang would not follow the usual rules. After taking over the state-owned match factory, he would not take the usual path. He would not sell matches on the market, but sell them exclusively to hotels and restaurants.
Not to mention, he was the one who found a way to survive.
He also found out about these matches. They cost only a dime a box. They were completely unaffected by the price war among the idiots in front of them. Not to mention making a lot of money, but at least they were profitable.
What he wanted was that the match factory was in trouble, so he asked him to borrow money and sell him several secret recipes of Kunlun Catering.
But the match factory is still alive. It works overtime in full swing every day, and the machines in the factory roar.
These guys in front of him were licking their faces and asking for "reimbursement" from him. Wasn't this a slap in his face?
"Boss Wu, are you talking about this kind of match? You didn't say it at the time. We can also make this kind of match, and it's not that difficult."
"No, you were talking about matches on the market, and you wanted us to seize the market."
"How much market share can these hotels and restaurants have? I think we must have hit them too hard, so the state-owned match factory has found another way to eat the leftovers from the market."
Everyone said one after another that they did not take these side businesses seriously.
What they said makes sense. Nowadays, matches on the market cost only a penny a box. Chen Huajiang would not compete with them in the market unless he was very clever.
"I will give you the money, but I will no longer subsidize the matches on the market."
"This time the subsidy is changed to customized matches for hotels and hotels. You guys will take away all the shares from these stores. I will subsidize each box of matches - up to three cents."
Wu Fugui took a breath, wrote the check to them, and patted the matchbox that he had smashed.
This time he didn't dare to do everything, because the guys in front of him were so "shameless" and they were just squeezing him to death.
In just one week, he was robbed of a "subsidy" of 15 yuan, and he doubted whether these guys were playing a trick of producing and selling by themselves.
Because Nanming City has a population of just over 150, how could it be possible to consume [-] million boxes of matches in a week?Have you eaten yet?
This was also the reason why he was so angry before. If these people were not needed, he would have wanted to break up with them directly, and actually treated him as the wrongdoer.
But of course the bosses didn't know what Wu Fugui was thinking. After getting the check, they all looked a little regretful on their faces.
If the big boss of Hong Kong and Land in front of them no longer subsidizes them, the opportunity to make "idiot money" in the future will be gone.
As for the scrap markets where matches are sold in hotels and hotels, they didn't pay much attention to it. It was all for Wu Fugui's sake.
"Don't worry, Boss Wu, I will definitely take over the market share of the hotels here in a week at most."
"Yes, we must make the state-owned match makers lose their market and kill them without leaving any trace!"
"Yes, you can rest assured in this regard."
The bosses all said one after another, each one promising it.
"Then I wish you immediate success and don't let me down."
Wu Fugui took a breath, raised his glass and said.
"cheers!"
"cheers."
All the bosses raised their glasses and said with smiles on their faces.
The price of matches has gone up!
The next day, the price of matches in Nanming City increased from one cent per box to ten cents per box.
These ups and downs, the ebb and flow of price fluctuations, have become the focus of heated discussion among all citizens, and even alarmed the Price Bureau.
However, things like matches are not even considered controlled goods, so everyone just walks through the process, asks questions and is fined.
However, the state-owned match factory is "tragic". Several hotels and restaurants have canceled their orders and ordered customized matches from other match workshops.
"Boss Chen, the Food Bureau has canceled our order."
"The salt company also canceled our order."
"Nanming Hotel also canceled our order!"
On this day, Wang Dayou and others anxiously waited for Chen Huajiang to talk about the matter worriedly.
"It's okay. You can make a few samples for me according to my request."
"In addition, the factory shut down a group of production lines and left half of the manpower to start the veneer. I will ask someone to bring in a batch of matches and put the pattern on the match box with a 'State-owned Match Factory' sticker."
Chen Huajiang waved his hands with a calm expression, and said while giving instructions, he took out a piece of paper and handed it to Wang Dayou, asking him to make a few samples.
