The Rebirth of Wealth

In the meeting room.

Chen Lang's face was leisurely, and there was time to wander around in the meeting room.

The female assistants who accompany them are not blocked, of course, not much talk.

After a turn, Chen Lang smiled at the female assistant: "Ms. Chen, we are still a family five hundred years ago."

The female assistant smiled and smiled: "Mr. Chen just called me Iris."

Chen Lang heard and laughed again: "Iris, is it idealistic?"

Seeing that the female assistant did n’t answer, Chen Lang did n’t care. He continued: “Iris, I heard that you graduated from the HEC business school, which is the most prestigious business school in France and the number one business school in Europe.

It is hard to imagine that you will choose to stay at Carrefour as an administrative assistant.

Talents like you, no matter where you go, will be treated as treasure.

How about, how about considering the distance? "

Iris was dumbfounded. Was it really okay to dig someone to another company?

She has heard of Chen Lang ’s name, and few people in the retail industry have not heard of it, of course, except for those small businesses.

Giant companies such as Carrefour have had a detailed understanding of these people when they first came to China.

Previously, in her impression, Chen Lang was the kind of serious, unsmiling talent.

Unexpectedly, this time I met, this man actually wanted to dig her in the conference room of Carrefour China headquarters!

Iris was a little stunned for a while, but soon woke up and barely smiled: "Thank you Mr. Chen for your kindness, but I'm doing well now."

Chen Lang said with emotion: "It's a pity, but it's okay. When Carrefour withdraws from China, you can come to me when you want to change jobs. I will welcome you on the couch."

Chen Lang didn't tell lies. He actually knew Chen Ying.

Otherwise, he will not take the initiative to invite each other.

Chen Ying had studied in France for many years before, and had been working at Carrefour headquarters after graduation. At that time, the position there was not low.

But sometimes, it ’s not that you are good enough.

In 2006, Chen Ying suddenly came from the French headquarters to serve in the headquarters of Huaxia District. According to her original position, she can at least hold the position of director or above. Even the divisional president under the jurisdiction of Huaxia District is not difficult.

But no one expected that she would eventually become Luo Guowei's assistant.

There are rumors in the outside world, perhaps caused by Carrefour's rejection of foreign executives.

The specific reason, Chen Lang is not very clear, and has not asked.

However, he feels that a woman, who can be a senior executive in a foreign company, always has the ability.

Especially in the past two years in China, in fact, many times, Carrefour's affairs are handled by Chen Ying.

Luo Guowei's guy, when he was off work, he had time to take care of the girl, how could there be so much time to deal with the debris.

The two were talking, Luo Guowei entered.

As soon as he saw Chen Lang, Luo Guowei spread his arms and smiled: "Dear Chen, welcome to Carrefour!"

After speaking, Luo Guowei reached out and hugged Chen Lang, and then probably wanted a warm, close kiss.

But Chen Lang flickered quietly, and the woman was OK, even the man, especially the old man.

...

Both sides sat down, Luo Guowei did not rush to discuss things, and continued to talk nonsense for a while.

After coming to China for two years, he also learned a lot.

That is, you can't take the initiative to ask others the purpose, otherwise it will be underestimated by others.

In his view, Chen Lang was born in a state-owned enterprise. This kind of person is no different from those politicians. This is a difficult battle.

Just when he broke the topic, Chen Lang had no time to talk to him and smiled and interrupted: "Mr. Luo, can you listen to me?"

Luo Guowei quickly said: "Yes, of course."

Chen Lang did not panic and said: "What do President Luo think of the current situation?"

Luo Guowei pretended to be silly: "Chen, what is the situation you said?"

"Distance and Carrefour battle."

Luo Guowei said angrily: "Chen, this is your initiative to provoke war!

Carrefour is the No. 1 retailer in Europe and the No. 2 in the world. You made a big mistake this far away, that is, you should not provoke Carrefour.

Now the headquarters has decided that we must let the distant place pay for our mistakes! "

Chen Lang smiled, not nonsense, and directly said: "President Luo, according to our Huaxia dialect, you are bluffing. In fact, this is not necessary.

I came today to solve problems for Carrefour. "

"Chen, can you speak more clearly?" Luo Guowei didn't mind asking.

Although it seems a little ignorant, sometimes ignorance is the best way to cover up.

Chen Langtou said: "I came here to talk about cooperation with Carrefour. The dispute between Carrefour and the distant place is already obvious. The distant place will win.

And Carrefour is now internally and externally troubled.

If you do not withdraw, Carrefour will only continue to lose. The Chinese people are really irritated this time. They will not choose to continue shopping at Carrefour.

And evacuation is not so easy.

Under pressure from afar, few retail companies will take over your stores because they dare not.

President Luo, are you right? "

Luo Guowei frowned: "Chen, what do you mean? Carrefour will not lose, even when facing Wal-Mart ..."

Chen Lang shook his head slightly: "Mr. Luo, it's different, really different.

Yes, even if you encounter Wal-Mart in some areas, you will not necessarily fail.

But in China, to compete with distant places, the defeat is already doomed.

The weather, the geography, and the peace are all in our hands. What does Carrefour fight against us?

Now your stores are almost no business. In the past, you had a sales of nearly 100 million a day, but now I am afraid that it is less than one-third of the previous.

With a turnover of 10 million, the profit is probably less than half of your expenses.

The loss is at least more than 2 million per day, 60 million per month and 700 million per year.

Can you really afford this loss?

And I am quite sure that 10 million daily sales will not be maintained, and will only be less in the future.

The day you open your store, you lose one day, even if you can bear it, can your superiors tolerate it?

And your employees are now lost in large quantities, the old employees are gone, the new employees are entering, the salary is high, and there is nothing to do. You can accept the wages in vain?

Rather than fight an impossible war here, I think Carrefour might as well withdraw from China. What do you think? "

Luo Guowei's face changed slightly, although he didn't want to admit it, but he had to say that Chen Lang was right.

Carrying on like this, Carrefour really can't afford it.

It ’s not that they do n’t have money to lose. The key is that they can make money elsewhere. Why should they lose money in China?

But Luo Guowei shook his head: "Chen, I admit that part of what you said is fact.

But I know that this war will not continue.

For a maximum of three months, the distance must not be able to sustain, even if it can, other supermarkets will not sit idly by.

At that time, you will face multiple attacks, so victory definitely belongs to Carrefour. "

Chen Lang shook his head and said: "No, President Luo, you are wrong.

The reason why you think so is because you do not understand our chairman, which is Mr. Li Dong.

He is a very persistent person, that is to say, he will not stop without winning this war.

Even if facing various attacks, he would not care, and would only regard Carrefour as the only opponent and the only target.

Yes, in the end we are likely to suffer heavy losses, but Carrefour will suffer even more.

President Luo, you are the president of Huaxia District. If you lose too much in Huaxia District, do you think that when you return to the headquarters, your superior will give you a high glance, and will you think that you are a passionate man in the end?

In our China, there is an old saying that the person who knows the current affairs is Junjie.

I hope that Luo can always consider whether to continue to fight a war that cannot be won with the distance, or to see the situation clearly and make the best choice for you and Carrefour. "

Luo Guowei didn't speak for a while, he said slightly for a moment: "Chen, you said a lot, but you haven't said the purpose, you can talk about the purpose first, I will consider it."

"Then I will just say that, we hope to reach a consensus with Carrefour and win-win cooperation.

If Carrefour now withdraws from China, we can take over the stores left by Carrefour in the distance.

Of course, not all.

Let us take over, at least not let you lose, you know, no one will compete with us at this time.

If you are not willing, the biggest possibility is that the mall is vacant, or transferred to other companies that are not supermarket chains.

Once this happens, your decoration, your shelves, including your counters, will become waste.

At that time, I am afraid you will not get the money you want ... "

At this time, Chen Ying next to him had been dumbfounded.

What is Chen Lang talking about?

When he was fighting at Carrefour and the distant place, he came and said: Hey, you surrender, give us all your stores, so that you can lose decently!

But now, Carrefour has not reached the end of the mountains and rivers!

The two armies engaged, and Carrefour had not decided whether to fight or not, and the other party came to persuade.

Suddenly Chen Ying felt a little ridiculous, but at the same time ridiculous at the same time a bit chilly.

How confident is this to be able to say this at this time?

How much determination will it take to let Chen Lang stand here and send them a notice to surrender.

Chen Lang's meaning is very clear. If you don't retreat, then you will be killed to retreat, even if the faraway place suffers heavy losses, even if the faraway place finds nothing.

But they don't care, their chairman is a lunatic!

Yes, Li Dong is a lunatic.

This is not necessarily something others do, Li Dong is not easy to say.

At the beginning of southern Jiangsu, the distance was in a contrarian situation. At that time, Li Dong was not betting on most of the remote groups and directly fighting with Su Guo.

In fact, at that time, from Chen Ying's point of view, it was actually the best choice to quit Sunan from afar.

But there is no distance, they chose to face the game, and finally won the victory, which is simply a miracle.

Now, this maniac is targeting Carrefour. Will he really kill Carrefour at all costs?

While Chen Ying was contemplating, Luo Guowei was also stunned.

If you don't know that this guy is the former general manager of Wanjia, he will probably be regarded as a madman, and it is possible to directly rush people.

what are you saying?

You let me surrender?

A company with annual sales of less than 10 billion US dollars, let a company with annual sales of 100 billion US dollars surrender?

The smile on Luo Guowei's face was unsustainable and frowned, "Chen, are you kidding me?"

Chen Lang laughed: "No, I'm not kidding, I'm serious.

President Luo, you can think about it, or inform Carrefour headquarters.

The distant place will not have any opinions on your choice, but the distant place will not stop until Carrefour has not retreated.

We will continue forever, please, including those at Carrefour headquarters, believe that we have this determination!

Our chairman is still young, and we are ready to break through. "

"You are threatening!" Luo Guowei said angrily.

Chen Lang calmly said: "It's not a threat, it's a fact. President Luo, please don't get me wrong, and I just said that we are pursuing win-win cooperation.

Or you can do it without quitting Huaxia, but we will not let any opponent survive in the east of China. "

"But your biggest opponent is China Resources!"

Chen Langtou said: "It's true, so after Carrefour exits, our next goal is China Resources."

Luo Guowei was dumbfounded and murmured for a long time: "Crazy, you are all crazy! This is something that even Wal-Mart dare not do. No one would do such a decisive decision. Are you afraid of being rejected by the entire industry?

Chen Lang grinned and said: "Afraid, but afraid we will do it!"

Luo Guowei looked at his smile and suddenly felt a little cold.

There seemed to be only one lunatic in the distance, but now everyone seems to be infected.

This former Wanjia CEO seems crazy at this time!

Luo Guowei had a terrible headache and some troubles: "Chen, I need to think about it, and I will report this to the headquarters.

Schett, I will choose to meet you, and I am crazy!

Today ’s meeting is a failed meeting, and I do n’t want to see you again next time.

Goodbye, I need to calm down now, I suspect I am dreaming. "

Chen Lang got up and said with a smile: "Mr. Luo, then I will go first. In addition, I wish you a good dream. Also, the European Cup is about to start. Does President Luo want to go back to Europe to appreciate before the European Cup starts? Is it a wonderful football game? "

Luo Guowei shrugged: "Hopefully, Chen, although I feel you are threatening me, but I think you are right, I want to go back to the European Cup and cheer for my motherland!"

Chen Lang smiled, and bowed slightly: "This is also what I am looking forward to. Peace, friendship, this is the ending we always wanted to see."

"Is the lunatic peace and friendship?"

Luo Guowei murmured ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ and waved towards Chen Lang.

Chen Lang walked out of the meeting room with a smile, Chen Ying thought about it and got up to send him out.

Chen Lang didn't turn around and smiled until she went downstairs: "Iris, I hope you will become a member of our lunatic group next time I meet again."

Chen Ying was helpless and perfunctory: "I hope so, but I think it is unlikely."

"Yes, I believe my intuition."

"Mr. Chen ..."

Chen Ying stopped talking, and Chen Lang curiously said, "What's wrong?"

Chen Ying's mouth moved, and he turned around and left.

"I don't think you are crazy, you are a **** stick!"

Chen Lang stayed in place for a moment, then he laughed aloud, as if it were, today he was a **** stick.
