Chapter 0823: Breaking the Blockade of Medicinal Materials
Sanwei Pharmaceutical's factory has completed 95% of the progress, but the raw material supplier has still not been found, because the Yaoshen Group has issued a lockdown order, and some powerful medicinal herb merchants have chosen to avoid Sanwei Pharmaceutical.
To put it more simply, Sanwei Pharmaceutical was banned by medicinal herb merchants.
Huaxia is the largest producer of raw materials for Chinese patent medicines, and domestic medicinal herb merchants compete with each other on the one hand, and cooperate with each other on the other hand, for example, in terms of pricing, they will unify it, so that it can be avoided. This is similar to real estate companies, the collective rise of the property market in a certain city is generally the conclusion reached by several large developers sitting together and negotiating.
However, Su Tao still personally went to Hecheng, the capital of medicine, where there is a second store of Sanweitang, and now Chu Huilin is the person in charge here, and after a period of accumulation, he has accumulated many loyal customers.
The autumn wind is whisking, sweeping the camphor trees outside the door.
Not far away is a branch of Yaoshen Group, but it does not provide TCM outpatient services, but only sells medicinal herbs. Because Sanweitang has a good reputation, there is a clear difference between the two.
Su Tao stood outside the door and watched for a while, and then followed Chu Huilin into the store, Chu Huilin made a pot of tea, and said in a deep voice: "I have already made an appointment with Jia Xing for you, he has a good relationship with me, and he is a very powerful medicinal herb merchant in Hecheng, I believe he will give me face." ”
Su Tao nodded and said, "Wait a minute, you talk to him first, and set his tone." ”
Chu Huilin was slightly stunned, and then nodded, knowing that Su Tao had his own plans.
Chu Huilin has a good relationship with Jia Xing, the reason is that he once prescribed a decoction to Jia Xing's wife to regulate the body, but Jia Xing's wife took it not long before she became pregnant, Jia Xing is in her fifties this year, and his wife is also in her forties.
Moreover, it is a certain risk for his wife to have a child at this age, so Jia Xing attaches great importance to Chu Huilin, hoping that he can keep his wife and children.
Jia Xing also knew about the current situation of Sanweitang, and the medicinal herb merchants collectively sold out of goods to Sanwei Pharmaceutical, but he still continued to supply Sanweitang under the pretext that he had a contract with Sanweitang. However, in this situation, Jia Xing took the risk of providing raw materials for Chinese patent medicine to Sanwei Pharmaceutical, which is definitely a forbidden area, and he will not bear the consequences of being collectively suppressed by his peers.
Chu Huilin received a call from Jia Xing, and Su Tao walked to a room inside, deliberately leaving a crack in the door where Jia Xing and Chu Huilin could be heard.
Jia Xing was a tall, middle-aged man with short hair cut and a very energetic appearance, several years younger than his actual age.
"Doctor Chu, this is some small things I brought for you, you must accept them, otherwise my wife will not be able to pass the test. Jia Xing put a few bags on the ground casually, and there were some precious medicinal materials inside, he was a medicinal material merchant, and he had his own purchase channels, so he didn't need to spend too much money, but if it was retailed in the market, the value of this medicinal material was thirty or forty thousand yuan.
Jia Xing has his own plans, and he has stuffed cash red envelopes to Chu Huilin several times, but he decisively refused, so this time he sent some medicinal materials by himself, and he used them by himself, or sold them at Sanweitang, which was a good choice.
Chu Huilin glanced at it roughly, and saw that there were deer antlers, old ginseng, dendrobium, and cordyceps sinensis, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "These things, you must take them back, they are too valuable, don't let me make mistakes." ”
Jia Xing didn't know that there were people in the room inside, Su Tao was observing the movement outside, Chu Huilin usually didn't accept these things, not to mention that his boss was watching from the side, and his face turned red in a hurry.
"Doctor Chu, if you don't accept it, you just look down on me. Jia Xing's face sank, and he pretended to be angry.
"How dare you!" Chu Huilin could only lie, "I have a camera in this room, and the boss can see every move, if I accept your things, I will be fired tomorrow." ”
"Ah, your boss is quite ruthless!" Jia Xing was blindfolded for a while, and said with a wry smile, "I originally had good intentions, but I didn't expect you to be so difficult." I'd better take it back with me. ”
Su Tao hid in the shadows and smiled dumbly, Chu Huilin was really embarrassed.
In fact, patient gift-giving is very common in the medical profession, and Sanweitang has established a corresponding system that does not allow doctors to accept these additional gifts in private, and they must be fired if they are discovered.
Sanweitang's doctors generally have a very high income now, like Chu Huilin's salary plus year-end dividends, the annual salary is about 500,000, and he is also a small shareholder of Sanweitang, so he will not let himself get into trouble for this small profit.
Seeing that Jia Xing's gift was finally settled, Chu Huilin exhaled lightly and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Jia, I invite you to come over today, mainly for the cooperation of Sanwei Pharmaceutical's raw materials, I have communicated with you last time, I don't know how you think about it." ”
Jia Xing smiled bitterly and said, "Doctor Chu, you are embarrassing me!"
Chu Huilin frowned and asked, "Why am I embarrassing you? I can trust your character, so I recommend you to the boss." As I have also introduced to you, Sanwei Pharmaceutical will invest almost 4.5 billion yuan and will become the world's largest Chinese patent medicine factory. ”
Jia Xing's eyes flashed with embarrassment, and he said: "The investment scale of Sanwei Pharmaceutical is well known in the industry, but now it is not a question of whether it is profitable or not, but several veteran medicinal material merchants of the Chinese Medicine Association have decided after research that they are not allowed to sell raw materials to you." Your boss is in trouble!"
Chu Huilin's round face showed a smile, and according to Su Tao's words to him, he said truthfully: "Mr. Jia, you are a visionary, how much do you think the success rate is when you block this kind of thing? ”
Jia Xing's eyes flashed with hesitation, "If I cooperate with Sanwei Pharmaceutical, I will be a traitor among the medicinal herb merchants in the future, and I will be suppressed when purchasing raw materials." ”
Chu Huilin shook his hand and said patiently: "You are actually more concerned about the retail of medicinal materials, and you have been banned by the Medicine God Group, right?"
Jia Xing was slightly stunned and sighed: "You got to the point." Although in recent years, Yaoshen Group's traditional Chinese medicine pharmacy chain has had problems with its operating efficiency and the profitability of a single store is very bad, it is still the largest shipping channel for all medicinal material merchants. I have nearly 100 million supplies every year that need to be sold from their channels, and there are tens of millions of funds in their hands, if I cooperate with Sanwei Pharmaceutical, I will definitely lose a lot. ”
Su Tao listened to Jia Xing's sincere words inside, his brows furrowed, and he could understand why the medicinal herb merchants wanted to jointly target Sanwei Pharmaceutical.
The main reason is that the Yaoshen Group can't afford to offend, Jia Xing is not the largest medicinal material merchant, the largest medicinal material merchant will have a large amount of payment on the Yaoshen Group's account every year, once he tears his face with the Yaoshen Group, the Yaoshen Group can give these medicinal material merchants a headache as long as they delay the cycle of issuing the payment.
To explain more intuitively, the Chinese medicine dealer will hand over the goods to the Chinese medicine pharmacy of the Yaoshen Group for sale, and when the Chinese medicine pharmacy sells these medicinal materials, after three months, after deducting the profits, the purchase funds will be sent to the medicine merchant, if the goods cannot be sold, the Chinese medicine pharmacy will return the inventory to the Chinese medicine merchant, and in addition to bearing some costs of capital and operation, it does not bear the risk of purchase.
This is different from some other industries, such as automobile 4S shops, every car you see in the showroom is bought by the boss out of pocket, so they will generally promote the existing car in the warehouse, if you want to book a model that is not available, the price will be a little higher, and you have to pay an advance payment. Because if the car bought back can't be sold, the boss can only admit that he is unlucky and his own loss.
The reason why Yaoshen Group is so strong is mainly because of the success of the chain model, although the medicinal herb merchants know that there is a problem inside, they will still be willing to pay in advance.
Jia Xing is reluctant to cooperate with Sanwei Pharmaceutical, which is also reasonable, first, he is afraid of the squeeze of his peers, although his own purchase channels are stable, but if his peers deliberately make trouble, the purchase channels may cancel the cooperative relationship with him, and second, he is worried that the Yaoshen Group will punish himself, once the payment is delayed, there will be problems in his capital chain.
Chu Huilin frowned slightly, which was completely consistent with Su Tao's previous analysis, and he said in a deep voice: "If you are willing to cooperate with Sanwei Pharmaceutical, we can compensate you for all the payments in the Yaoshen Group." In addition, we are willing to pay you 200 million yuan in advance for your purchase of medicinal herbs. ”
Jia Xing's eyes widened, revealing a look of surprise, he knew that Sanwei Pharmaceutical was wealthy, but he didn't expect it to be so strong.
Chu Huilin saw hesitation in Jia Xing's eyes, and knew that his work as a lobbyist today had been successful. However, he still didn't understand Su Tao's thoughts, because there were too many benefits for Jia Xing, and Sanwei Pharmaceutical suffered too much.
"Give me a little time to think about it!" Jia Xing was also shaken, he knew that Sanwei Pharmaceutical had already received an order from the military, and the first batch of raw materials cost almost 200 million funds, this in and out, he could easily earn fifty or sixty million, as for the Yaoshen Group, there was only 20 million in the account, even if Sanwei Pharmaceutical did not compensate for its own losses, it was not necessary to pay for the goods by itself, it was completely a business to send money to himself.
"Because the first shipment was very demanding, and the raw materials had to be ready within a week, you had to reply to me tomorrow. Chu Huilin was helpless, "After all, I still need time to find my next home." ”
Jia Xing nodded, thinking that he would go back to discuss with the person in charge of the purchase channel, and after sitting for a while, he said goodbye and left, and Chu Huilin reminded him to take away the gifts.
When Jia Xing walked away, Su Tao came out of the inner room and quipped: "Lao Chu, I didn't expect you to be so honest now!"
Chu Huilin laughed and said: "No way, the main thing is that I am not short of money now, and this little thing can't buy me." This old man, who is polite on the surface, is actually a cunning guy and can't put the handle in his hand. However, judging from his reaction just now, it is true that our suggestion has been shaken. ”
