Chapter 130: Being kept in the dark

The management of Carefour Group has been very depressed recently. In their view, the duck that they almost got seems to be more likely to fly into their home.

During their stay in Fengyuan, Frank and Thierry, in addition to negotiating with the Carrefour Supermarket negotiators headed by Sun Zhaolun, also conducted detailed investigations into the operating conditions of Carrefour Supermarket and the development of Qinxi Province, and conducted timely investigations.

feedback to the European headquarters. Through these survey data, the management of Carefour Group have a more direct understanding of this small joint venture private supermarket.

In the carefour group, many people originally did not value this small company, nor did they look down on the Carrefour supermarket stores in Qinxi Province. Except for President Nicholas, it can be said that the rest of the people care more about the brand!

In their view, in a country that has just shifted from a planned economy to a market economy, there are no real entrepreneurs, and those people will not understand how to run a large enterprise. As for the large state-owned enterprises in China, in their view

It seems that it is simply synonymous with inefficiency and a place for leisure people. And the leaders of these companies are definitely not entrepreneurs, they are just a group of officials in disguise. How can they understand what business management is? Carrefour Supermarket

The reason why they can achieve such results can only be said that they are just lucky! The group management, even if it sends a middle-level cadre, in that desert of supermarkets, I believe they can do better than them. So for Carrefour

They don't care at all about the supermarket's assets in Qinxi Province.

It's just that Carrefour Supermarket's current assets are too small. As the group president, Nicholas, if he can't even make the decision on such a small-scale merger and acquisition, then he can go home and make soy sauce. So even if they know that President Nicholas hopes to acquire

No one at Carrefour Supermarket has publicly expressed any clear opposition to this.

After all these days, although the annual turnover of Carrefour Supermarket is still only a drop in the bucket compared to that of Carefour Group, it is not even a fraction! But the management of Carefour Group has put away its initial contempt.

.

"It's unfair to compare a company that was only established for two or three years with a company that was established for more than thirty years. It's like someone ridiculing Microsoft when it was first established and saying it was not as boring as General Motors."

Talks like these began to circulate in the carefour group headquarters.

These people who have been experienced in shopping malls have found that Carrefour supermarkets have good locations in Qinxi, and they are all located in densely populated areas, which can ensure the population support needed by the supermarkets; and Carrefour supermarkets have been operating very well so far.

The finances are very stable; the relationship with the local government is also very harmonious, especially the police department. These people also realize that if Carrefour Supermarket can be brought under its umbrella and its contacts can be borrowed, it will undoubtedly be a good start for the Carefour Group to enter China.

to a considerable effect.

Although this multinational conglomerate sounds good, in practice, it is increasingly dangerous. Just because you can do well in your own country does not mean that you can do well in other countries. It is not true that a strong dragon cannot overwhelm a local snake.

A phenomenon unique to China. What's more, the situation like Carefour Group's desire to enter China is much more complicated than in Europe. In any case, in Europe, although it is divided into countries, the national conditions of each country are different, and each ethnic group

The situation is also different, but after all, everyone belongs to Western civilization, and within the big frame of white race, according to the Chinese people, that means that everything can never change without departing from the same origin.

Entering China means entering a country whose civilizational traditions are completely different from those of the West. Moreover, this country has as many ethnic groups as the entire Europe, and its social system is completely different from that of Western countries. Such a complicated situation is naturally

It should not be underestimated. This is the main reason why Carefour Group first entered Taiwan to test the waters before turning its attention to China.

This is certainly the case for Western multinational groups entering China, and Chinese companies also face the same difficulties when entering Western countries. For example, in Fan Mingyuan's previous life, whether it was Chinese state-owned enterprises or private enterprises, many of them went out of the country and made mergers and acquisitions overseas.

Enterprises have caused a series of sensations, but in fact, there are very few successful acquisitions that can integrate the productivity of these overseas enterprises into the operations of their own companies. Most of them fail and sink huge amounts of money.

It was a waste of time and made those foreign businessmen cheaper.

But these reasons are actually not the most important. Ultimately, these changes are all due to the appearance of representatives of the Wal-Mart Group. Carefour Group does not dare to have the slightest contempt for this counterpart in the Americas. And they also

We have to admit that the reason why Wal-Mart Group ranks ahead of Carefour Group in the world rankings is that it has sufficient confidence.

This is just like, when a celebrity meets a junior, he may be dismissive of the junior, but if he knows that the status and fame of the junior are greater than his own, he will be very respectful and praise the junior.

When he stops talking, he will definitely reconsider whether he made a mistake. This is true for people, and it is also true for companies.

The sudden appearance of a representative of Wal-Mart Group, and according to the report sent back by Frank, the other party has repeatedly had long talks with representatives of Carrefour Supermarket. Representatives of Wal-Mart Group also rejected Frank's proposal to jointly acquire and distribute the two companies internally.

These people couldn't help but doubt the intentions of the Wal-Mart Group.

Some people believe that this is because Wal-Mart Group has seen the value of Carrefour supermarkets and is also interested in acquiring its own supermarkets. In order to enter the Chinese market in the future, Wal-Mart Group is making arrangements in advance.

Some people also believe that this is because Wal-Mart Group is setting up obstacles for the company in order to prevent Carefour Group from entering the Chinese market. The value of the Carrefour supermarket trademark is not only noticed by the management of Carefour Group, Americans are not stupid either.

He figured something out from it, so he intervened midway and vigorously competed for the ownership of Carrefour Supermarket. Even if he couldn't get Carrefour Supermarket, he couldn't let the Carefour Group easily get it. This kind of thing can be said to be unprecedented in the shopping mall.

Too common.

Therefore, the management of Carefour Group, who originally did not care at all about the ownership of Carrefour supermarket stores, have become more concerned about the acquisition of Carrefour supermarkets.

But no one thought that the real purpose of the Wal-Mart Group sending people to Fengyuan...
