"And have you considered whether those distributors will agree to it, CEO Xu?"
Xu Niannian calmly said to Sun Qiang, "But this is the only solution I can think of at the moment. President Sun doesn’t need to worry about the issue of concentrated sales. The Xu Family’s brand has already made its mark. Establishing a mall will indeed affect sales volume in the short term, but I’m certain it won’t last for too long. The foot traffic in the mall will increase because of the Xu Family’s products."
"Aren’t you being too confident, CEO Xu?" Sun Qiang did not agree with Xu Niannian’s statement.
Indeed, this was the only way to let customers accurately distinguish between genuine and counterfeit products at the moment, but the cost was too great.
To understand how big Haishi really is, to visit the distributors, Liuyue Su’s presence had to be in every part of the Haishi region, including small shops, to achieve such high sales volume.
After all, every little bit adds up. Each store sells a little, and the total amount together is definitely not something a single mall can match.
"Xu’s Liuyue Su has developed to where it is now because my confidence has always been built on the product’s quality and flavor. President Sun, do you still remember the feeling when you first tasted the Liuyue Su I made?"
Sun Qiang had almost forgotten because he had eaten Liuyue Su too often since he was selling it. He no longer had the initial eager anticipation to taste it. Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs novｅlfire.net
"I remember at that time, after tasting it, President Sun was determined to cooperate with me. Can I take it that the Liuyue Su I made back then was extremely enticing to you? So much so that despite being from Haishi, you were eager to partner up with me, a person from Nancheng?"
At that time, Sun Qiang hadn’t managed food operations yet, but he was determined to collaborate with her.
The words of Xu Niannian made Sun Qiang hesitate for a moment; he understood her meaning and sighed.
"CEO Xu, I know what you mean, but now that Liuyue Su is available throughout Haishi, its attractiveness to customers is not as strong as it was initially."
Because when a delicious item is available anytime, anywhere, everyone loses that strong initial desire they once had.
"Therefore, I plan to produce a new food product, completely unrelated to the original Liuyue Su, to replace it in attracting customers and establish the reputation of the mall."
"A new product?" This was somewhat surprising to Sun Qiang.
"Exactly," Xu Niannian nodded. "And there won’t be just one mall. In every district of Haishi, there will be a landmark mall, or perhaps it could also be called Xu’s Food City."
"As for the issue of attracting foot traffic, I am absolutely confident. And the problem of those second-tier distributors you mentioned is even easier to solve."
"Oh?" Sun Qiang raised an eyebrow in surprise. "How do you solve it? You know that by doing this, we are cutting into others’ profits."
Originally, the others just needed to pay for cost, but now, not only do they have to pay for rent and costs, but they also have to share forty percent of their profits. Who would agree to that?
However, Xu Niannian shook her head: "That’s not correct, President Sun."
She leaned forward, her moist eyes radiating a sharp light.
Confidently, she said, "Those previous shops were all in small areas. The foot traffic in small areas can’t compare to that of large places. On the surface, they might seem to have lost some profit, but due to the increase in foot traffic, even with a sixty-forty profit split, the money they make will definitely exceed what they earn from their small shops. Moreover..."
At this point, Xu Niannian paused.
"Moreover what?" Sun Qiang was somewhat impatient to know.
