Wei Kang smiled and replied quickly.

"It seems that your news is very well-informed, but I have already finished talking with Shiseido."

"Mr. Wei, it's okay, after all, there are no secrets among colleagues."

"Then why did you ask me? You should be very clear about the conditions they offer."

"Mr. Wei, don't get me wrong. I don't mean anything else. In fact, I can tell you clearly that Ou Laiya has given up cooperation."

"Oh?" Wei Kang didn't expect Sheng Changya to say it so directly, and asked instead, "Then what do you mean by asking me that?"

Sheng Changya slowly typed out a line: "I have inside information about Shiseido. I wonder if Mr. Wei is interested?"

These words aroused Wei Kang's interest. If Ou Laiya didn't intend to compete, then Sheng Changya sent internal information at this time, which is worth pondering.

"Very interested, please tell me."

"Let's talk on the phone."

"good."

After the call was connected, Sheng Changya took a deep breath and said the news she had inquired about in one breath.

"In short, I know senior people from Shiseido, and the inside information is like this. Although I don't know if you have reached an agreement, I still like the effect of this whitening drug. I don't want the pearl to be dusty and disappear from the market. So sincerely I want to remind Mr. Wei."

Wei Kang's first reaction was not to believe it, and he questioned reflexively: "Is there any evidence for what you say?"

"You suspect Shiseido so unreasonably, saying that they are just trying to gain my trust and obtain this prescription. In fact, the intention is to kill competitors, and you don't have any intention of launching products later."

"If there is no evidence for such a statement, it is difficult for me to believe it."

Sheng Changya was silent for a moment, and said: "Mr. Wei, I don't have any real evidence, I just know that Shiseido has acquired many small companies over the years, and there are some new skin care technologies, but their product line has never been too big. No upgrades, no new brands, these companies and technologies just disappeared.”

She hesitated for a while, and then added: "It seems that the domestic nurses disappeared in the market after being acquired by Ou Laiya. This incident caused many people to resist the acquisition of domestic brands by foreign brands, and although the company's senior management It is strongly denied, but it is the tacit fact within the company."

"Mr. Wei, you also know that in many cases, without direct evidence, one can only deduce facts from conclusions."

"The fact is that before the acquisition of Little Nurse, Garnier had just entered the country, and its sales were really mediocre. However, after the acquisition of Little Nurse, Garnier's sales increased by leaps and bounds, and it ate up the market for Little Nurses in a very short period of time."

Wei Kang was terrified at once, the danger of this shopping mall was beyond his imagination, it was hard to believe that behind Koizumi Taijiro's well-prepared plan was such a vicious intention.

He still wants to struggle: "Then when I sign the contract with Shiseido, I can request that the product development and launch as soon as possible be added to it. If I don't follow the contract later, I have the right to immediately annul the contract."

Sheng Changya asked calmly: "Even so, it will be half a year later, and they can definitely fight a tug-of-war lawsuit with you in the later stage. Commercial litigation is very time-consuming and long-term. Mr. Wei, you have the time and energy to deal with it." Cope with it?"

"Also, even if you win in the end and get back the prescription, Shiseido has already learned the relevant information, and it is completely possible to launch a counterfeit product to seize the market in advance."

"In short, if they win, the prescription is ruined, and if they lose, they will take your product."

"In business talk business, nothing is impossible."

Wei Kang was silent, he subconsciously felt that Sheng Changya was right, but he was unwilling to trust her completely like this, and always wanted to prove it again.

Sheng Changya saw that he did not speak for a long time, and understood the other party's concerns in her heart, so she said, "Mr. Wei, if you still have doubts, you can make new requests to test them. I am just revealing a piece of news to you. The specific decision is still up to you. That's it, don't bother me, goodbye!"

After hanging up the phone, Wei Kang sat on a chair and looked at the two plans in front of him.

His face gradually became gloomy, and a sense of boredom welled up in his chest.

Could it be that he was really played by Xiaobenzi?

I have to find Koizumi to confirm it.

After hesitating again and again, he called Koizumi Taijiro.

There was some noise on the other end of the phone, as if it was in a restaurant.

Koizumi kept apologizing in a low voice: "Wei Sang, I'm very sorry, I'm having dinner with my colleagues, I'll go out to answer your call right away."

Soon, the sound became quiet.

Koizumi smiled and asked, "Wei Sang, I'm glad to receive your call. What's your order?"

Wei Kang stabilized his mood, and asked in a deep voice: "I compared your plan with Procter \u0026 Gamble, and I feel that your plan is more in line with my expectations, but I want to add a clause."

Koizumi was overjoyed, and the excitement in his voice could be heard through the phone: "Hey, Wei Sang, just say it, we will definitely do it."

Wei Kang said word by word: "I would like to add a clause that Shiseido must develop a new product line using the whitening prescription within six months and launch it in the domestic market. If this cannot be done, this contract will be annulled immediately. If you can make this condition Add it in, and I can choose your plan."

Koizumi was stunned for a moment. He didn't understand why Wei Kang made such a condition at all, and asked in a daze: "Wei Sang, didn't we have a good talk this afternoon, why did we suddenly add such a clause? This clause It seems unreasonable that we don’t bring new products to market that fast.”

Wei Kang interrupted him and said: "In the afternoon, you said that the project team is already in place, and new products can be developed immediately after the contract is signed, and the marketing plan is also ready. Why can't it be done within half a year? I see you doing it." Well-prepared, there will be no problem in listing in China within three months."

Koizumi was speechless for a moment, unable to find a reason to refute, he hesitated for a long time before saying: "Wei Sang, how about this, I can't decide on this condition for the time being, I have to report to the headquarters, and then answer you. How about it?"

"Hehe, no need." Wei Kang sneered and said, "I have seen your true colors. You have no intention of cooperating with me sincerely. The conditions you put forward are all fraudulent means. Although I am not in the FMCG industry, But there is also internal information, Shiseido has always used acquisitions to kill competitors, so there is no need to use it on me."

"Ah? Where did you get the news? This is a competitor's slander against our company. It is absolutely not true." Koizumi was sweating and eagerly argued.

However, Wei Kang didn't listen and hung up the phone directly.

Koizumi frantically called back. This contract is of great importance and must not be lost in his hands.

"Beep beep..."

Hearing the busy tone from the phone, he knew that the other party had probably blocked him.

Koizumi's face was ashen, and he punched the wall heavily: "Bage, who stabbed the knife in the back, I'm so mad!"

"Damn it, Wei, since you are so ungrateful, don't blame me for teaching you a lesson."

With blue veins popping up on Koizumi's forehead, with a distorted expression, he made a call.

"Mr. Deneke? That's right. Our cooperation with Sanqing failed. As far as I know, L'Oreal also gave up. Now this whitening drug is in your pocket. Congratulations. "

*****

Wei Kang sat on the chair, his chest heaved, and there was a surge of anger in his heart.

This nasty little book, with a smiling face on the surface, is welcoming people, and it talks gaudyly, but secretly it has such dirty thoughts.

I almost fell for it. If I really believed in them and cooperated with Shiseido, the loss of money would be a trivial matter, and this prescription would probably be snatched away by the other party.

The whole thing made him sick like he ate a fly.

In the future, this company will be completely blacklisted.

No, all companies in Sakura Country will be blacklisted from now on.

After a while, he finally calmed down and regained his composure.

In this way, there is no choice of partners, and they can only cooperate with Procter \u0026 Gamble in Eagle Country.

He picked up Procter \u0026 Gamble's plan, looked at it carefully, and made up his mind again.

Find the contact information of Procter \u0026 Gamble Vice President Deneker and call him.

There was a burst of hearty laughter on the phone.

"Dear Mr. Wei, I'm waiting for your call."

A trace of doubt flashed in Wei Kang's mind, but he didn't think much about it.

After deliberating for a while, I said, "I compared the plans provided by various companies, and finally I still think your plan is more suitable, so I decided to cooperate with Procter \u0026 Gamble. I hope to cooperate happily in the future."

Deneke smiled and said, "That's great, and I'm also very much looking forward to working with Mr. Wei happily in the future."

"However," he said lightly, "Mr. Wei, our conditions may have to change."

Wei Kang was taken aback: "The conditions are going to change?"

A premonition that something bad happened came to mind.

Deneke smiled proudly: "Mr. Wei, it's like this. From a commercial point of view, the conditions we can provide are consistent with the market at all times. Your whitening prescription was snapped up by three companies before, so we naturally The best conditions will be offered.”

"But now," Deneker said slowly, "I heard that the other two have given up the competition. I'm afraid you have no other choice. So our conditions should be lowered appropriately, which is reasonable, isn't it ?”

Wei Kang held his breath in his chest and almost couldn't come up. He almost cursed: "You are extorting, do you understand?"

Deneke chuckled lightly and said, "Mr. Wei, you are wrong. We also follow the market. The proposal in the afternoon is only the first round of quotations. You can increase the price afterwards, and naturally we can also lower the price. It is very reasonable. Business conduct. Please don’t read too much into it.”

"In business talk business, since we have become the only buyer, the cooperation plan must be revised again. When can we see Mr. Wei again for a negotiation?"

Wei Kang clenched his fists, his nails dug deep into his flesh, he didn't notice it at all, but said coldly, "Let's hear the new offer?"

Deneke was silent for five seconds, and quickly said: "80 million, a buyout price, this is our final offer. This price is not low, you know..."

He was answered with a "snap".
