Chapter 59 The critical moment before dawn!
Zheng Housheng's mysterious success aroused Luo Yao's curiosity.
However, this mystery did not last long.
The Ugly Country has always emphasized speed in doing things.
The next day, Luo Yao had just arrived at the lab when he heard Wang Ye say, "Fuck them! How dare they do that!"
"They are very clever, don't you understand? They don't speak out at the top level, but directly use the power of the market to deal with us." Wu Tianming had just finished speaking when Luo Yao appeared.
"What are you talking about?"
Wang Ye took out his phone and put it in front of him. "Boss, if you don't have a smartphone, you wouldn't know. This morning, Weibo pushed a message saying that most of our products are unsaleable in the Ugly Country."
Luo Yao was startled and took the phone to check the message. After he finished reading , he knew what the other party was going to do this time.
Use the market to encircle and suppress them.
Isn't it about selling products?
Then the other party has a way to prevent consumers from buying.
"You see, this bunch of rubbish has been professionally spreading rumors for a hundred years, covering everything from food, clothing, housing, and transportation. Some say the quality is substandard, and some say eating our food will cause Alzheimer's. These are really unthinkable, but their people still believe them."
Before Luo Yao could say anything, Sergei beside him chimed in, "Don't you know that everyone in Ugly Country has some mental issues? I'm truly ashamed to be on the same planet with them!"
Adra also said, "They bully others all the time. Don't you know that our economy is being dragged down by those dirty people?"
In an instant, the Shannon Laboratory, like a coalition of U.S. victims, collectively began to denounce the other party's crimes.
Luo Yao did not join them, because at this moment, he could not help but want to see how the crowd would react, so he picked up his computer, registered a Weibo computer account, and logged into Weibo.
At this time, the hot searches on Weibo were filled with discussions about this incident.
Yun Ku Feng Mo: Damn! Why are so many things breaking out? What happened to our factory?
What to do if you gain weight: Is there really a problem?
Xu X is very thorough: The person above asking if there are any problems is probably trying to trick us with 500,000 yuan, right? What problems does our factory have?
[Acrophytes: Don't let anyone take advantage of you. This information keeps coming out one after another. Don't you find it strange?]
Hong Hu: I think there's definitely something fishy going on here. Rumors have been circulating for the past few days, but I didn't expect them to burst out today.
[Qianlegehai: Could there really be a problem? That's why it's erupting so violently?]
Honghu: Don't be silly. If there really was a problem, our officials would have spoken out long ago. How could it be their turn? Don't you think carefully? They're focusing on testing our products. Isn't this just a way to easily blame others?
[Shallots and Garlic: So what should we do now? Won't the sales of these brands decrease?]
[Sincerely, Radish: It's almost Chinese New Year, and all this stuff is really a fuss!]
Internet users quickly split into several factions regarding what had just happened.
Some have the gene of reflection engraved in their DNA, some are so angry that they start cursing the ugly country, and some think about how much loss they will have to bear next.
After several discussions, people felt a little anxious.
This anxiety spread invisibly on the Internet, and soon everyone began to feel impatient.
If others don’t dare to buy their products, then they won’t have orders, and then workers will lose their jobs.
The scale of this incident not only involves the semiconductor industry, but also other industries have been affected, which shows that this time, the other party does not want to leave them any room.
At this moment, Luo Yao suddenly realized what Zheng Housheng had said.
Zheng Housheng said that his previous plan had omissions because he did not mention other industries.
Luo Yao’s previous suggestions were all based on the semiconductor industry, but now, it is obvious that semiconductors are only a part of it, and the scope of impact has expanded. If we still follow the solutions provided by Luo Yao before, many suggestions will no longer be suitable.
There is still more than a month left before the Chinese New Year. If workers cannot get their wages, it will inevitably affect many families and even the entire society.
If subsidies , the government obviously cannot come up with that much money.
What's more, subsidies can only provide temporary relief. If the situation does not improve after the Chinese New Year, will the government still be allowed to provide subsidies?
Luo Yao had never felt so anxious before.
He thought he couldn't understand other people's feelings, but when he read the words on Weibo one by one, he always felt uncomfortable in his heart.
Luo Yao quickly calmed himself down and began to think of a solution.
Luo Yao knew that this was the critical moment before dawn. If they were not careful, they would most likely not be able to hold on until dawn!
The only way to solve the problem now is to transfer the unsold products from the factories to domestic sales.
There is no shortage of products, but where will the consumers come from?
Without consumers, products can only pile up in warehouses.
At this point in time, domestic consumer demand is high and everyone is buying things to prepare for the New Year.
But the question is, how to make everyone accept those products?
Some of these unsaleable products have been slandered, and some are produced by OEM factories. No one knows their brands. Will consumers be willing to buy these products?
Luo Yao is not sure now.
Market behavior never follows logic 100%. If you force a promotion rashly, the result will definitely not be good.
Just as Luo Yao was thinking of a solution, his secure cell phone rang. Luo Yao picked it up, checked the security code, and heard Fu Daobin's voice.
"Director Fu, please ask the factories in other industries. We need to help them as soon as possible."
"I think we can first find KOLs on major online platforms to collaborate with and have them help promote our products. These people are familiar to consumers, so they should be able to promote our products more quickly..."
When Luo Yao mentioned this, Fu Daobin said, "We have actually found all the KOLs you mentioned."
"Have you found them all? So what's the situation now?" Luo Yao didn't expect that the authorities had also thought of this. Luo Yao listened expectantly, wanting to know the result.
"The situation can only be described as dire." Fu Daobin sighed before continuing, "Our people have contacted several of the most popular live streamers on the e-commerce platform, but they have already partnered with other businesses and need to promote their products at this time."
Luo Yao narrowed his eyes slightly and understood .
“Are all the businesses they work with foreign brands?”
"Yes, they had no way to refuse now, so they agreed. Since they had already received the other party's money, they couldn't break the contract even if they wanted to."
The people of Ugly Country dared to tear up the contract, but they did not dare.
Because after the Ugly Country tore up the contract, there are still people who want to ask them to cooperate, but individual anchors rely entirely on the cooperation of businesses to make a living. Once the contract is breached, it is very likely that no business will be willing to cooperate with them anymore.
But these are just ordinary anchors. Luo Yao vaguely remembers the top anchors, and they should be the ones who choose others.
"Director Fu, are they unwilling?"
Luo Yao revealed the truth in one sentence, leaving Fu Daobin at a loss as to how to respond.
If he accepted the offer, people would definitely know how much those anchors disliked domestic products. If he didn't accept the offer, Luo Yao would guess it sooner or later, so he told him the truth.
"It's actually very simple. Domestic products have low prices and low profits. Foreign brands can pay six or seven figures for cooperation fees alone, not to mention the commission for each sale. We domestic brands really can't offer these."
"So we have several experts here who are trying to figure out how to overcome this difficult time."
"I originally planned to look for you to see if you had any ideas, but now it seems that you think the same as us."
"Wait, I do have a plan, but it's a bit troublesome."
"What's the plan?"
"As long as we can get through this difficult time, it doesn't matter if it's a little troublesome!"
