"Even if we don''t do this to them, do you think the Huos will easily let us go? Or do you still not understand why the Huos are bothering us? " Huo Bufan asked.


    Jane Sisi and others were puzzled and asked, "isn''t it because of the electronics factory?"


    "Of course not." Ning Xueqing said: "our new cooperation with down international has caused a shock in the industry, and many enterprises have taken the initiative to seek cooperation. The Huos didn''t come because they felt that new hope was just a small company and didn''t deserve to cooperate with them. So they want to exert pressure to prepare for subsequent acquisitions. "


    "Acquisition?" Qiao Dongliang, director of public relations department, stood up and said angrily, "they''re too much. Do they really pinch us as soft persimmons!"


    "Don''t feel angry. It''s normal in the mall. Including us, we will also want to buy some potential companies in the future, but everyone uses different methods. " Huo Bufan waved his hand, motioned Qiao Dongliang not to be excited, and then said, "so the most important thing now is to keep a calm state of mind and not be disturbed by them."


    At this time, someone came to collect a report: "boss, President Ning, the Huo family are gone."


    "Gone? Did they say anything? " Ning Xueqing asked.


    "Didn''t say anything, but looking at their faces, they seemed very angry." The man replied.


    Ning Xueqing made a sound, then looked at Huo Bufan and asked, "what are you going to do now? I don''t think they will leave at will and give up this matter. "


    "Of course they won''t." Huo Bufan said, "based on my understanding of the Huo family, their coming today is a signal. If it can be negotiated, nature is the best. It doesn''t take much effort. But if they can''t, they must have prepared plan B. Moreover, there is a great probability that this plan is related to malicious competition. So from now on, I ask the whole company to make adequate preparations. In addition, let the production workshop work overtime to make enough products. The planning department will come up with a set of plans to do activities within 12 hours. It requires only one, nationwide participation! "


    Huo Bufan''s tone and expression are very serious.


    He really knows the Huo family well. He can almost guess what the Huo Liqun and Huo Qingyun brothers are going to do.


    But the saying that we know ourselves and the enemy and win every battle is not true.


    When the power gap between the two sides is too large, the skill gap can be ignored. Compared with the Huo family, new hope is like a baby. It is difficult to get through this crisis if you don''t keep up your spirit.


    Everyone stood up and nodded seriously: "yes! Let''s get ready! "


    When others left the office, Huo Bufan left Ning Xueqing and Jane Sisi and asked, "how much money does the company still have in its account?"


    Ning Xueqing recalled a little, and then replied: "there are about 200 million or 300 million. As you know, although our profits are large, we also invest a lot in R & D, plus personnel salaries..."


    "Bring out all the money." Huo Bufan interrupted Ning Xueqing''s explanation: "in addition, apply to the bank for a loan of at least 1 billion."


    "Ah? What do you want so much money for? " Ning Xueqing asked puzzled.


    "To buy raw materials, from weight loss products to drinks, all raw materials are bought back." Huo Bufan said.


    Ning Xueqing and Jane Sisi don''t understand why he wants to buy so many raw materials. Even if the business is good now, they can spend more than one billion on raw materials and produce products that can sell at least twice the price.


    How long will it take to sell out two or three billion products?


    Now it has been targeted by the Huo family. Instead of conservative prevention, it has to drain all cash flow and loans to do this. Isn''t it self seeking.


    "Don''t worry, since I let you do it, I''m sure. I''d rather talk to the bank. If I can''t talk, I''ll go again. The minimum loan is one billion yuan. The more, the better. It''s really not good. It''s OK to mortgage factories and the like. " When Huo Bufan spoke, he looked confident and said, "you can rest assured that crisis is opportunity. As long as we get through this crisis, it is possible to double the value of the company."


    Hearing this, Ning Xueqing and Jane Sisi''s eyes lit up.


    They don''t understand what Huo Bufan wants to do, but since Huo Bufan is so sure, they just do it themselves. Anyway, so far, I haven''t seen Huo Bufan make mistakes. Everyone has a blind trust in him.


    As the closest people to Huo Bufan, Ning Xueqing and Jane Sisi are even more so.


    After that, Huo Bufan didn''t stay in the company.


    He went to Miao Yike and, through that network, gathered most of the domestic raw material manufacturers related to the weight loss industry to buy their things.


    The raw materials of weight loss products are nothing more than conjugated linoleic acid, green coffee extract, martial boot leaf extract and so on. The extraction technology of these things is not high, but the product direction is single, which is rarely used in other industries.


    Therefore, the market has always been in a state of oversupply.


    Now Huo Bufan has more than one billion raw materials, which makes these material suppliers very happy.


    However, Huo Bufan made a request, that is, because he bought too many raw materials, he didn''t have enough warehouses to store them. Therefore, after the payment, these raw materials should be kept by those material manufacturers for a period of time.


    In addition, if someone is willing to buy these raw materials, they should also help sell and transport them.


    This small request will not be rejected by the material supplier. It is not profitable to put raw materials in the warehouse. Only when they are sold can they make money.


    As for the costs mentioned by Huo Bufan, it is a small effort for them.


    After this, Huo Bufan went back to the company and asked about loans and activities.


    Ning Xueqing went to the bank in person. With the reputation of new hope, it is not difficult to borrow hundreds of millions. As for billions, there must be collateral.


    Ning Xueqing grits her teeth and takes the equity of Jiazi branch as collateral. In the eyes of many people, this is a crazy move.


    Now the valuation of new hope can reach 5 billion, most of which are provided by subsidiary a. the catering group of b-chou and the fitness and VR social networking of bingxu are still in their infancy. Except that the drinks of the catering group contribute part of the profits, nothing else is.


    Therefore, the mortgage of Jiazi branch is equivalent to that new hope has become an empty shell.


    The bank is naturally very happy. A company with a valuation of several billion only borrows one billion after mortgage, which is sure to make a profit for them.


    Even if the bank doesn''t make weight loss products, it can sell the company in the future.


    The loan came down on the same day. The bank also looked at the face that Huo Bufan was the successor of Professor Zhao Yongan. Otherwise, such a large sum of money usually takes at least a week to approve.


    For national activities, the planning department also came up with three sets of plans in a very short time.


    Finally, after Huo Bufan''s review, one set was determined.


    The whole company is busy from top to bottom, whether the bottom employees, middle managers or senior executives.


    As we all know, this is a battle of life and death. It''s up to those who are popular to drink spicy food or to drink northwest wind in the future.


    Ordinary small companies are nervous and at a loss in the face of opponents like the Huo family. But the new hope company is the same from top to bottom and can''t extricate itself from excitement.


    That''s the Huo family. It''s really powerful, but if you can defeat such a powerful enemy, doesn''t it mean you''re stronger?


    Therefore, they are holding back their strength and want to win in this battle.


    Everything was going on in good order. The next day when Huo Bufan arrived at the company, Jane Sisi immediately greeted him and said anxiously, "boss, there is a lot of bad news outside today."


    "Don''t worry, speak slowly." Huo Bufan said.


    Jane thought took a deep breath and then introduced the general situation.


    "It''s mainly those Taobao merchants who suddenly compete with us under the banner of orthodoxy. Then there were a lot of inexplicable small shops. They all said they took the goods from us. Some simply said that they were the same as our ingredients, and the specifications, materials and effects of fitness equipment were the same. Many customers went to their place to buy things. The sales department told me that the traffic of our Taobao store fell by one tenth in just one morning. "
