V2.Chapter 118

"In fact, the price reduction is the simplest, and I won't lose much. I can find cheaper purchase channels to reduce costs... But as soon as I take the challenge, the price war of retail department stores will not stop."

Zhou Cheng is not sleepy. Xia Xiaolan doesn't like the couple. There's nothing to hide. Zhou Cheng is willing to listen. Then she'll talk about her ideas.

The husband and wife should have carried things with each other. It's not like a husband and wife living.

Xia Xiaolan is a little annoyed now: if she doesn't know history, she can rush around with her eyes closed. It's because she knows history that Xia Xiaolan has constraints!

Once the price war starts, it will not be good for the long-term development of Asia, and it will also be a big blow to the retail department store industry of Shangdu.

Yes, a "Central Plains commercial war" has taught many people the means of commercial competition. It is a very influential classic case after China's reform and opening up. Otherwise, how could Xia Xiaolan understand this history so clearly because it is always mentioned.

Xia Xiaolan had no opinion at all about sacrificing several department stores in Shangdu to enlighten others.

But "Asia" is also the object of sacrifice, and Xia Xiaolan is unhappy.

None of the participants in the "Central Plains commercial war" benefited. Although Asia's fame soared and expanded, it still ended in bankruptcy after 1997. The outcome of those state-owned department stores was similar. They either collapsed or were bought at a low price. One of the shopping malls participating in the scuffle was counted as one, burning itself to illuminate the road of peers and future generations!

Xia Xiaolan has no such sacrifice spirit.

If Asia is still managed by Zhu Suizhou, Xia Xiaolan won't care how it ends. Zhu Suizhou will do whatever she likes. She will throw away her shares when Asia has the best momentum and withdraw when she makes a sum of money.

However, zhusuizhou was attracted by Qiongdao real estate, and the management of Asia fell to Xia Xiaolan.

She doesn't want to follow the old path of zhusuizhou.

History has proved that Zhu Suizhou's path is wrong. Does she still go on with her eyes closed?

And everyone has a comparative psychology. Asia has not been rescued by Zhu Suizhou. If she manages it, will the outcome be different... Xia Xiaolan wants to have a try.

Of course, Xia Xiaolan didn't say anything about the previous life. She just analyzed Zhou Cheng according to the trend of the previous life and told him the worst possible result if Asia joined the "price war".

"I said 'possible', is more than 90% of the probability that there will be bad results."

Zhou Cheng patted her smooth back again and again, coaxing her and Thinking:

"So you ignore their provocations. Do you want them to have no opponents and start internal friction? What if they have been cutting prices in turn in such an orderly way? After all, they have experienced the benefits of doing so. Several state-owned department stores have divided up the passenger flow originally belonging to Asia. If they meet this situation, they will not make trouble. "

The alliance is formed because there are consistent enemies.

At this time, everyone clenched their teeth to the outside world, advance and retreat together, very united.

The disintegration of the alliance is the uneven distribution of stolen goods after the elimination of the enemy.

Without external threats, alliance members will start to worry. They all think they have paid more but not enough benefits.

Zhou Cheng thinks his daughter-in-law is right, but several state-owned shopping malls haven't started yet, which shows that the other party seems quite satisfied with the current pattern?

"Because you are not ready to fight and there are no rivals competing with them to reduce prices, their losses are not big, so several department stores are also relatively stable."

Xia Xiaolan murmured, "yes, so I'm also trying to break their stability. In addition to participating in the price war, there must be a way. Although this road is more difficult, there is no end. The sequelae of participating in the price war! "

Tell Zhou Cheng what he is thinking about in his heart, as if even the pressure is much lighter.

Zhou Cheng thought for a long time. He was trying to tell her some of his thoughts, but he found that she even slowed down her breathing, put her face on his arm and slept soundly.

Zhou Cheng didn't dare to move this time for fear of waking her up.

Xiaolan must be tired during this time. Haven't you had a good sleep?

Xia Xiaolan was in good spirits the next day. In fact, she didn't need anyone to give her advice. She knew a lot of ways. She needed a shoulder to lean on and a harbor to rest when she was tired.

Zhou Cheng is the harbor.

This time, Xia Xiaolan only stayed in Qiongdao for two days. The second aunt from Shangdu called to urge her to go back.

"The man surnamed Lu called up the suppliers to hold a friendship meeting and told them not to supply Asia!"

Xia Xiaolan only found it ridiculous:

"Will the supplier listen?"

Now is not the period of planned economy. Everything is bought and sold according to the planned share. We can't provide less or buy more.

Market economy, but there are market rules. Why don't those suppliers supply for Asia and make money by selling to anyone... Such an absurd thing happened in my previous life. However, Xia Xiaolan remembers that the suppliers refused this ridiculous request and still supply for Asia as usual.

"I don't know whether they listen or not. Anyway, the situation is very bad!"

The second aunt's tone is too worried.

Xia Xiaolan also had doubts.

This life is indeed different from the previous one. She did not participate in the "price war" like Zhu Suizhou. Recently, the daily turnover in Asia has fallen again and again.

In the last century, suppliers did not respond to the demands of Lu Hongbo and others, because Asia was also engaged in a price war. It was hard to say whether it was a loss or a profit. At least a lot of goods were sold every day, which was a big customer in the eyes of suppliers. Even if Asia is losing money, it is favored by suppliers and others!

Now, customers are diverted by several state-owned shopping malls. Xia Xiaolan has not joined the price war for a long time. Asia sells few goods, so they are not particularly big customers in the eyes of suppliers. Those suppliers will not really consider the advantages and disadvantages and choose to listen to the absurd demands of Lu Hongbo and others, right?

Things have changed and are no longer following the track of her previous life. Xia Xiaolan dare not be careless. She told her second aunt that she would return to Shangdu soon. Before hanging up, she asked one more question:

"Did Hu Yongcai return to the commercial capital?"

"No!"

The second aunt replied that a purchasing manager spent most of his time in other places after taking office and failed to maintain the supply channels of the commercial capital. Now he is going to be cut off by those state-owned shopping malls. Asia is really attacked on both sides.

The second aunt's attitude is pretty good. In Asia, I don't know where to say that Xia is always helpless. Then she went to Qiongdao and asked Mr. Zhu to come back and preside over the overall situation!

Two aunts are skeptical. Does Xia Xiaolan really want to return the management right to Zhu Suizhou?

——Then why rob it at the beginning!
