My Daily Basic Stipend Is 10 Million

Chapter 179: Chapter 161: Intensive Offensive (3)

’Holy crap, you can’t guard against that! He actually threw the laptop!’

Xiao Feng scrambled to dodge as the laptop hit the ground with a CRASH!

Xiao Feng hurriedly picked it up, only to see the screen was completely smashed!

"Fuck, my files!"

Xia Bin suddenly remembered the PowerPoint presentation for his meeting with Ledi’s national sales director. He’d spent the whole afternoon modifying it after returning from Ganglong International.

’The computer’s broken. What about my files? Do I have to do it all over again?’

’Fuck, my head is already buzzing. I worked so hard on that, and now it’s all gone. I have to start from scratch!’

"Get out! Get the hell out now!"

After Xiao Feng left, Xia Bin erupted again, cursing, "Xu Jun, you son of a bitch! Why are you fucking with me like this? I’ve got no beef with you!"

Xu Jun was really being made the scapegoat here, since in almost every mall, this kind of decision was made by the general manager.

Xia Bin just couldn’t fathom it. Xu Jun was a famous figure in the Jiangzhou Business District, the former general manager of Jiangzhou Wansheng Square. How could he possibly be in complete agreement with his vice general manager’s plan on such a major issue?

After a moment’s thought, he snatched up his phone and called Peng Yu.

"President Xia!"

"President Peng, that bastard Xu Jun is screwing me over!"

Peng Yu was completely bewildered. Based on his understanding of Xu Jun, it made no sense for him to target Four Seasons Clothing. Not unless he’d lost his mind. Everyone worked in the same business circle. What goes around comes around. Why would he needlessly offend such a major client?

Xia Bin recounted how Junxiao Square had blocked his brand, Sa Mo, from moving in, the issues with the first-floor brand contract renewals, and the new cost-sharing ratio for the cash subsidy vouchers.

Peng Yu was instantly baffled. "The targeting is way too obvious. I really don’t get why Xu would do this. How about this, I’ll try to ask around on the sly!"

Xia Bin grunted in agreement. "Thanks, President Peng. I still respect President Xu. I hope he’ll handle this properly, in the spirit of our long-term partnership."

Peng Yu chuckled. "I’ll pass on the message!"

He hung up the phone, mulling it over. ’This whole thing is just bizarre!’

It wasn’t convenient for him to call Xu Jun right now. Junxiao Square had become a competitor to Wansheng Square. Furthermore, he had competed against Xu Jun for the general manager position at Junxiao Square and lost. There was a bit of bad blood between them.

He had his Vice President of Leasing, Li Chun, contact Sun Wei, the leasing manager at Junxiao Square, to ask about the situation and await a response.

Before long, Li Chun returned, his expression a little strange.

Peng Yu looked at him. Li Chun leaned in close and said, "I asked Xiao Sun. He said it wasn’t Xu Jun’s idea. It was all from their new Vice President of Business. But Xu Jun isn’t opposing it!"

"Vice President of Business? Right, which mall did their VP of Business come from?"

Li Chun gave Peng Yu a peculiar look. "Not from a mall. It’s Zhao Hui, from Yino Company’s logistics department."

The room was silent for a full thirty seconds. Peng Yu picked up a cigarette and lit it. He’d never dreamed this would be the situation.

’I knew Zhao Hui had interviewed for the VP of Business position. I remember President Xu saying he didn’t even need the interview... that he was passed over immediately, right?’

’So how did he end up as the VP of Business at Junxiao Square?’

’No wonder the proposal for Sa Mo to replace Yi Rui was rejected. No wonder he’s going after Four Seasons Clothing. With that reckless punk’s personality, it’s entirely possible.’

’Damn it. It’s like a scholar trying to reason with a soldier.’

’The foolish fear the ruthless, and the ruthless fear the desperate...’

’That guy Zhao Hui clearly isn’t a rational person. Only he could pull off something so bizarre!’

’And come to think of it, they’re throwing two million into SP expenses in the first month. This guy is probably worried he’ll burn through the entire year’s budget.’

’Why is Xu Jun tolerating this? Is he deliberately letting him make mistakes so he has an excuse to fire him?’

A flurry of thoughts flashed through his mind. Finally, he blew out a thick ring of smoke.

’What a small world for enemies. Looks like we’re in for a fight. I’d like to see just how much power a mere VP of Business at Junxiao Square has to dare to fight me!’

After Li Chun left, Peng Yu immediately called Xia Bin back to update him on the situation.

Xia Bin recalled the renewal terms that Sun Wei had mentioned their VP of Business set during his visit. Weren’t they exactly like this?

’So that’s the root of the problem. This VP of Business is clearly targeting me, and Xu Jun is just letting it happen!’

’From Yino Company, huh? You think you’re so tough. At least I finally know who’s been fucking with me!’

’Zhao Hui... Yino Group... My Sa Mo spot at Ganglong International was also snatched away by the Yino Jiangzhou Branch, and Zhao Hui came from the Yino Jiangzhou Branch!’

’So that’s why my Sa Mo couldn’t replace Yi Rui at Junxiao Square... All the clues are connecting!’

Xia Bin slammed his hand on the table and said to Peng Yu, "President Peng, we have to team up and teach this Zhao Hui and Yino Company a lesson! They actually dare to shit and piss on our heads!"

Peng Yu said, "Exactly. Some little punk dares to fight us. Before, we didn’t know who was pulling the strings, but now that we do, just watch us crush him."

"I’ll have all the malls target the Yi Rui brand. They won’t be included in any mall-wide promotions. For all their profitable stores, when their leases are up, I’ll either hike their rent massively or have them moved out!"

"At the same time, operations and fire safety inspections will pay them ’special attention.’ We’ll play the long game with him!"

Xia Bin said, "I’ll also go to all the malls I partner with and sign exclusivity agreements against Yino Group’s brands. It’s either me or them!"

Peng Yu said, "That’s an even better move, President Xia. I believe any mall that isn’t stupid will know how to choose between Four Seasons Clothing and the Yino Jiangzhou Branch!"

This move from Xia Bin seemed powerful, but in reality, its effect wouldn’t be as dramatic as imagined. He dealt exclusively in high-end brands, so there weren’t many malls he would enter in the first place. Yino Group, on the other hand, had brands distributed across many lower-tier channels, and their performance was quite good.

They didn’t overlap with Four Seasons Clothing in too many commercial areas, but wherever they did overlap, those were key commercial centers.

"These are all measures against Yino Group. As for that Zhao Hui, we still need to find a way to make sure he can’t last at Junxiao Square!"
