C452 The vengeance of one arrow (1/2)
The news that Joukan Soutaku had brought back gave Liang Fengshan a huge shock. He couldn't care less about Ding Guangxiong and the girl called A-Li as he hastily ran back to the villa to turn on the TV in the hall.
There was a financial news program on TV.
The man in the suit inside said, ”According to the latest news from our station, at around 10 am this morning, a member of the China branch of Coca-Cola Corporation who did not want to be named was exposed. The company is preparing to acquire the famous private company, the Tianhe Beverages Group.
It has also been reported that Mr. Dai Jiaxi, the president of Coca-Cola's China area, has signed a preliminary acquisition contract with Mr. Koo Chung-woo, chairman of the Tianhe Drink Group today. ”
Then, with a twist of the television, the door of the Shanghai branch of Coca-Cola Company was filled with reporters from various television stations and newspapers. Dai Jia who happened to come out was immediately blocked.
The reporters immediately rushed forward like wolves and tigers, surrounding Dai Jia in an instant.
”Mr. Dai, someone in your company revealed that you are about to buy the Milky Way Drink Company. Is that true?”
”Mr. Dai, there's news that you have already signed a preliminary contract with the Milky Way Drink Company. May I ask what is your purchase price?”
”Mr. Dai, your Coca-Cola company had previously offered to buy Tianhe Beverages Group, but Tianhe rejected it.
Are you determined to get your hands on this acquisition plan? ”
”Mr. Dai, did you want to buy Tianhe Beverages Group because they have recently made a comeback in the Chinese beverages market and taken over a lot of the Coca-Cola market?”
More than ten microphones were placed in front of Dai Jiaxi. The reporters' questions were like waves as they asked one after another. By then, the security personnel of Coca-Cola Company had already come out and hurriedly protected Dai Jiaxing who was standing in the middle of the storm.
However, this time, the news caused a huge uproar in the country. How could the reporters be willing to let Dai Jia off so easily? Under the protection of several security guards, it was difficult for him to break out.
In the end, Dai Jia, who was extremely anxious, told the reporters, ”Everyone, regarding this matter, I can say that our Coca-Cola Company has no intentions of purchasing Tianhe Beverages Company for the time being.
However, it's undeniable that the Milky Way Beverages Group is an excellent company with a lot of power. ”
One of the quick-witted reporters immediately asked, ”Mr. Dai, you just said that Coca-Cola has no intention of buying Tianhe Beverages for the time being. Does that mean that you guys will have the possibility to buy Tianhe Beverages in the future?”
This question immediately resonated with the other reporters. Everyone began to ask questions.
Dai Jiaxue replied, ”I have no comment on this. After all, I am not completely in charge of the company's affairs. Whether or not I will buy the Milky Way Drink Company, the company's headquarters will still have to decide.”
Another reporter asked, ”Mr. Dai, as your old rival, is Pepsi Cola also interested in the Milky Way Drink Company?
Pepsi's Mr. Zhu Huaxi also just revealed that it's not like Pepsi couldn't buy the Milky Way Beverages Group. Then, would you guys compete with Pepsi for the Heavenly River Beverages Group again? ”
”I'm sorry everyone, I still have a meeting to host, so I'll take my leave first.” Dai Jia did not answer the reporter's question. Instead, he broke through the crowd of reporters and retreated back into the company with the help of the security guards.
The reporters wanted to chase after them, but they were stopped by the security guards.
The screen went back to the inside of the television station. The male broadcaster said to the camera, ”This station's reporter interviewed Coca-Cola's Dai Jiaxi and Pepsi's Zhu Huaxi. Neither of them clearly stated that they would not buy Tianhe Beverages.
As a result, neither Coca-Cola nor Pepsi-Cola's bid for Tianhe Beverages was clear, but neither company's president denied the possibility.
As for this matter, this station reporter contacted the chairman of the Tianhe Beverages Group, Mr. Gu Chongyun.
The following is a telephone interview with Mr. Suichi Suichi. ”
Then, a young man's voice came from the television. He must be a reporter from the television station. What do you think? ”
Following that was the voice of a middle-aged man. ”You said it yourself. This is just a rumor. Of course, it's not true.”
”But neither Coca-Cola nor Pepsi-Cola said they wouldn't buy it, so does that mean it's possible?”
”Actually, I can't rule out that possibility.” Gu Zhong Lu said on the phone.
