One Thousand and Forty-One American Leeks, Don't They Smell Good?

This 100X company has become his weakness against Jonathan several times.

So this guy accelerated the listing of this company, probably because he wanted to cash out early and run away, which is also understandable.

But what is Stanley up to?

They are going to launch a new line of cleansing products that contain cannabidiol, which is very controversial.

But this time they actually took the initiative to announce this ingredient.

And also invited a lot of experts, public relations on TV.

What to say, this product is an industrial product. Compared with natural hemp, the most significant advantage of this product is that it is not addictive.

Nima, isn't this talking nonsense with your eyes open?

Xiao Feng thought it was very funny!

And this also reminded him of a business story about Americans.

It turns out that as early as the nineteenth century, milk was not the staple food of Americans.

Don't look at the fact that the majority of Americans are white, but in fact, there are a large number of them who are lactose intolerant.

To put it bluntly, after drinking milk, you will shoot the javelin.

According to statistics, about 40% of people in the United States are lactose intolerant.

But the people at the Dairy Farmers Association don't care about you, they pay nutrition experts.

A series of articles were published in newspapers to let people accept the fact that milk is rich in nutrition.

Then milk began to gradually become a frequent visitor on the breakfast table of Americans.

This situation continued until the 1930s, but even then.

In the United States, only 30% of households accept milk as their breakfast drink.

The situation did not change until World War II.

Because of the large amount of supplies, the front line and several allies must be supplied first.

This has caused a certain shortage of material supplies in the United States.

In order to ensure the nutritional intake of the domestic people, the US government has launched a milk promotion policy for schools.

And this policy gradually extended to individual families later.

Later, when people in this period grew up, most of them also developed the habit of drinking milk.

In this way, milk began to be used as a daily drink, and it really entered thousands of households.

However, the theory that the experts hired by CVS are advocating, in Xiao Feng's view. ,

It is the same reason as when dairy farmers hired nutritionists to promote milk.

Then there is Jason Li, I don't know what this guy thinks.

Before, their contact with MRE was still sneaky, but now they actually started talking with MRE blatantly.

What's more interesting is that they actually increased the quotation by another 300 million.

Finally, MRE was acquired at a price of 6.8 billion Canadian dollars.

Is this guy crazy? Isn't he afraid of tearing face with Superman?

It seems that he is going all out!

And their operation like this also brought a strong sense of crisis to Xiao Feng.

Although the two sides had reached a settlement before, Stanley, Jason and Jonathan ended the dispute by conceding defeat and leaving.

But in fact, for Xiao Feng, he still has the handle on the three of them.

But as they took the initiative to detonate the mines in their hands one after another, the handle in Xiao Feng's hand could no longer be called a handle.

But it's normal when I think about it, I'm afraid no one would want to be held by the pigtails like this!

I don't care about them, as long as they don't come against me, that's fine.

Xiao Feng suppressed his somewhat confused mind, and turned his attention back to the matter of Voegelin's acquisition.

Recently, Pablo led the team and has found several small and medium shareholders.

Almost 4% of the shares have been repurchased one after another, but there are still 6% of the shares scattered in the hands of many small and medium retail investors.

It is really not worthwhile to find these people one by one.

According to Pablo's proposal, directly publish an announcement and directly invite buybacks.

Anyway, many people in the market have already received the wind that Voegelin is ready to be privatized.

Voegelin's stock price has been soaring recently, if it is operated according to the rules.

At this time, Xiao Feng can completely distribute some of his shares, earn a part of the difference, and harvest a wave of leeks.

Then there is no other operation, just throw the first quarter financial report outside.

When those leeks see the first quarter's unsatisfactory financial report, they must be panicked.

There was no need for Xiao Feng to call the price of the stocks in their hands, so they couldn't help but sell them.

In fact, he can play like this a few more times, and the leeks in the United States are also very easy to harvest.

But now he was suddenly a little afraid of Changyechangmeng, because of the actions of Jonathan and the others.

It always made him feel a little different.

So he just wanted to complete the privatization of Voegelin as soon as possible.

When Voegelin is completely controlled, he wants to see what other tricks those three guys can play.

Although some premiums have to be paid for the invitation to buy, overall, it will not increase the cost much.

Now he mainly has to deal with those pharmacists, and banks and financial institutions.

Now Kevin has officially become the chairman of the labor union in the Chicago area, and he has followed Xiao Feng's wishes.

After negotiating with Voegelin's pharmacist representatives, this time the union's attitude changed 180 degrees.

In the past, the trade union supported the pharmacists to the end, and wanted them to fight against Voegelin.

But now the trade union is asking the pharmacists to reach a settlement with Voegelin as soon as possible, because Voegelin's current situation is very bad.

I owe more than 10 billion in debt, and my business has been losing money year after year.

If it continues like this, I'm afraid it won't be long before it goes bankrupt.

This big turn of the trade union has saved many pharmacists.

Many people even cursed Kevin and the others as traitors.

Recently, the two sides have fought many times in the newspapers, and the pharmacists feel that they have been betrayed by the union.

And Kevin also explained in front of the media many times that they are always on the side of the pharmacist.

But everyone knows the actual situation of Voegelin.

They are now overwhelmed by debt, plus lost the advantage of a lot of prescription rights.

Their current business is already struggling.

If things go on like this, this pharmacy will end sooner or later, and each store is equipped with three pharmacists, which is indeed a bit too much.

The heavy salary burden of the employees has made the company overwhelmed.

If you don't want to see this century-old American company go down like this, then you'd better follow his advice.

The two sides were at each other's lips, and the debate was very lively.

The story has now spread across the country, and many people feel that Voegelin and the union are doing the right thing.

The company can no longer operate, do you pharmacists continue to be blood-sucking bugs?

Xiao Feng also knows that layoffs are not something that can be done overnight, not to mention that tens of thousands of people will be laid off this time.

And these are high-income groups, pharmacists with a basic annual salary of 100,000 yuan.

It's not just the Pharmacists' Association that is unhappy about laying off these people.

The governments of various places are also unhappy. Without these people, they will also collect a lot less tax every year!

So in order not to intensify the conflict, Xiao Feng could only accept Pablo's proposal and take his time.

No way, who made it impossible for employees to be punished for their refusal to work overtime?

It's really helpless!

On the other hand, the main work of Pablo's team in the recent period is to deal with those creditors who visit frequently.

In the past, Voegelin borrowed heavily in order to expand.

From banks, financial institutions have borrowed more than 18 billion dollars in loans.

Although some of them have been repaid in recent years, this huge debt has become a heavy burden on them.

There are 18 billion US dollars in debt, and the annual interest payments alone are several hundred million US dollars.

But now that the company is facing bankruptcy, it must be unreasonable to implement the repayment plan according to the original contract.

So what Pablo is talking about with these banks and financial institutions is a new repayment plan.

It is affirmative to reduce the interest rate, and it is also affirmative to extend the repayment period.

If not, then they will find other financial institutions to replace the current financial institutions.

To put it bluntly, it is tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall.

As far as these banks and financial institutions are concerned, they are actually willing to cooperate with Voegelin.

Although the company is losing money year after year, they are the ones who know the reason for the company's losses best.

The reason why this enterprise loses money is not because they do not make money and their competitiveness is not strong.

It's because of the heavy bank loan interest they bear, and the personnel costs.

And now Voegelin's trend is very obvious, that is to reform from these two aspects.

At present, people have started to build momentum, to gain sympathy, and to lay off staff.

Once those redundant pharmacists are laid off, they can save more than two billion a year in personnel expenses alone.

It would be much easier to save this money to repay the bank loan.

And they will continue to expand new markets and drugs.

From this point of view, the new team that took over Voegelin is not an idiot.

Maybe in a few years they'll be able to pull Voegelin out of the quagmire.

In this way, who wants to have trouble with the number one chain pharmacy in the United States!

You know, they have also heard recently that Voegelin is planning to apply for an insurance company license.

If you can't apply, then buy an insurance company directly.

This shows that they intend to enter the insurance field.

Insurance companies, on the other hand, are a love-hate relationship with banks and other financial institutions.

Because insurance companies can bring very rich cash flow.

If there are many insured people, their cash flow can even surpass that of banks.

Yes, the insurance company is such a terrible existence.

Take a look at CVS in the same industry as Voegelin. Isn’t it just doing a good job in the insurance field.

And now it seems that Voegelin is planning to do the same!

With the strength of their family, it seems that it is really not difficult for them to make achievements in this field.

Xiao Feng even designed several medical insurances with Pablo's team specifically for the high price of medicines in the United States.

The leeks from the United States are cut, isn't it delicious?
