CHAPTER 600 GREAT PRESSURE FROM ABOVE
"But it's not practical," said the secretary seriously. "Never mind those overseas brands - even fellow industry players in the country won't support Lin Group or give them a chance at all. Nobody is willing to step out of their comfort zone and give up the chance to make money that's right in front of them."
This was a vicious cycle. If you wanted to make money, then you had to pick up the pieces left behind. That was the tactic that the overseas brands used, and it was very effective.
Nobody wanted to give up the benefits that were right in front of them.
Not even Chen Gong himself. He was the main distributor for the internationally renowned brand, Ceyranka. He was full of praise for Lin Group, but there was no way he was giving them a chance!
Chen Gong laughed. Of course he wasn't giving Lin Group a chance to succeed. He couldn't bear the consequences of them succeeding.
He got up and walked to the French window. He looked down at the market that he had dominated for many years and there was a mischievous smile on his face.
"The CEO of Lin Group, Lin Yuzhen, is a really interesting person," Chen Gong murmured to himself. "I would like to meet her."
The secretary didn't respond.
Chen Gong had received an invitation to the dinner party that the Gao family organized back then. But he didn't even look at it and threw it into the trashcan directly.
And now he wanted to meet Lin Yuzhen?
"But not now." There was a deep gleam in his eyes as he turned to look at his secretary.
"Go and make arrangements according to my instructions." "Yes, Mr Chen."
The secretary nodded and left the room.
Chen Gong continued to stand in front of the window. He spread his arms out as if he was embracing all of Shenghai.
"This market belongs to me, Chen Gong. Nobody can take a single inch of it. You'll only get to eat some if I let you have any. If I don't want to give you anything, then you'll get nothing.”
He called the shots in this market.
Of course, he had his fair share of challengers. After so many years, there were quite a number who tried. But where were they now?
They had disappeared long ago. Belonging to .
Meanwhile.
Lin Yuzhen was in the office and just finished a meeting to decide on the next step.
"CEO Lin, I've just received the notice from the industry trade association. They said that Lin Group's new product doesn't reach the standards for Band 1, and can only just reach Band 3, so the product will be sold alongside other Band 3 products."
Xiaozhao got a little angry. "They're going too far! They're using their industry standards to put pressure on us!"
This was clearly a warning.
Since Lin Group wanted to set their own industry standard, then they were going to use their standards against Lin Group to tell them that there was no way forward.
Lin Yuzhen seemed already prepared for this to happen. "Got it. Continue with our plan for the online market. We'll put our products in Band 3 in the shops."
"But..."
Xiaozhao was indignant. If their products were sold as Band 3 products, then the consumers would think that Lin Group's products were two grades lower than those major brands, and that would also put a limit on their selling price.
How were they going to compete like that?
But since Lin Yuzhen didn't panic, she didn't say anything and went to get things arranged.
She walked to the door and saw that Jiang Ning was at her seat and rummaging through her drawers. "Where are your tidbits? Did you stop hiding chips away after coming to Shenghai?"
"Brother Ning!" Xiaozhao pouted and whined unhappily. "You're still in the mood to eat tidbits at a time like this?!"
"Why, what time is it?" Jiang Ning looked up. "It's time to eat tidbits! Take them out now, I'm so bored."
"Brother Ning, other people are bullying CEO Lin right now, so why aren't you helping?"
Xiaozhao was getting anxious.
In her heart, Jiang Ning was a omnipotent god. As long as decided to interfere, he could solve any problem. Who would dare
to bully Lin Group and Lin Yuzhen like this?
