American Legendary Life

Chapter 875 Delicious Ending

Aircraft carrier Astor.

Deploying two aircraft carriers at the same time is a great risk for the United States.

According to the original plan, there should have been only one aircraft carrier, but after acquiring the Astor and Doris.

In order to ensure the smoothness of the plan, the takeoff of the plane will not be affected by the weather, loss of opportunity and other reasons, they still dispatched two aircraft carriers to go there at the same time.

16 B-25s parked neatly on the deck of the aircraft carrier. After several days of trekking, they will arrive at the scheduled take-off location in about 14 hours.

"George, do you think we have a chance to go to China?"

"I think the Colonel will make arrangements."

"Does any of you know where we should land?"

"I just hope I can see land then..."

They are more or less worried about their next fate, but honor, responsibility and mission.

These make them clearly aware that some things must be done by someone.

On the second day after the aircraft carrier departed, they had already learned that when they took off, the aircraft carrier would immediately return to the mainland of the United States.

And their fate will be decided by 'God', 'Oh god...'

China.

The word was so foreign to them that it was intimidating.

"Guys, stop talking about this...someone wants a can of Coke." A soldier appeared in the cabin carrying boxes of Pepsi.

"here..."

"Give me two, Fran, and maybe this is the last time I'll drink it."

"You can go to the kitchen, there are piles of Pepsi, enough for swimming..."

"Then he will turn into chocolate color, haha..."

"It keeps me vigilant. It's really a good thing." A soldier put Pepsi in front of his eyes and said with affection.

The soldiers were joking, opened Pepsi and drank happily.

The redefined "Pepsi" has been loved by young people, but the military did not choose it as a beverage supplier.

On the battlefield, something to stimulate the nerves is essential, such as cigarettes, coffee, etc. provided to soldiers every week.

But coffee is too troublesome to drink and the price is too high to meet the daily needs of soldiers.

Therefore, PepsiCo took the initiative to assume this responsibility.

They used "sincerity (price)" to impress the military, regardless of the cost and the company, Pepsi will guarantee that every soldier can drink it for 5 cents.

Such "sincerity" naturally moved the military, so in the second week after Roosevelt declared war, Pepsi had already reached a new cooperation with the military.

They will promise that in times of war, wherever the US military goes, there will be Pepsi.

According to the requirements of the military, PepsiCo will compress the concentrated syrup into cans, then transport it to the bottling factory in the war zone, and complete the supply locally.

Yes, Pepsi has become a must-have army supply these days.

However, the attention to building factories locally is not simply for the convenience of soldiers in the theater.

We must know that as the US military goes to the world, Pepsi's factories will also go to the world.

In areas occupied by the US military, people will see US soldiers drinking Coke and smoking cigarettes.

The problem of import and export will be solved here, and the U.S. military will be the best publicity team for Pepsi, rushing to the front line of attacking the global market.

Due to war factors, the import and export were greatly affected. In addition to the restrictions on syrup and other materials during the war, Kekou, which had not obtained the 'special supply qualification', soon fell into trouble.

It is said that some time ago, the CEO of Coke came to seek cooperation with Pepsi, how to reply to Li Zitao has not yet decided.

Is it arrogant to refuse like Coke, or take the opportunity to propose an acquisition.

A skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and Keke is still a giant in the beverage industry at this time.

It is not an easy task to make the other party accept the fate of being acquired, and Coke is more inclined to the merger and acquisition plan.

Moreover, the other party wants to occupy a dominant position in the new company.

"Are they dreaming?" PepsiCo's board of directors said, "Huh. '

The disadvantaged party actually wants to take the initiative, and even boldly expresses its willingness to reconsider the "merger and acquisition" plan with PepsiCo.

Fortunately, they still retained their remaining IQ, and did not use the word 'acquisition'.

At the new meeting, Li Zitao attended the meeting in person, expressing his importance to this 'small' beverage company.

"Pepsi only agrees to a wholly-owned acquisition, and its board of directors can occupy one seat in the new company." Li Zitao tapped his fingers repeatedly.

His eyes glanced over the Kekou representative team indifferently: "I'm done talking, if anyone has an opinion, please tell me."

Tell, tell a ghost!

You might as well say that you want to swallow delicious food, which is simpler and more straightforward.

The conference room fell into a brief silence, only the faint sound of breathing loomed.

Refuse the other party's conditions, Coke can't even get syrup now, how can it produce its own products.

Even if they can produce, the local economy continues to decline due to war factors, and various raw materials, sales, restrictions and other issues make them burnt out.

Coupled with the loss of the military, the big benefactor and the young market...

Dead.

‘Accept the takeover? ’ When this idea came up in their hearts, the representatives of Kekou felt as uncomfortable as eating flies.

Dizziness, nausea, vomiting...

"We need time to discuss!" No matter how much they said, they still had to face reality.

The reality is that Coke really can't bear it anymore.

If this continues, even the product will be out of stock.

This break may be after the war, how long will it take?

No one can tell them the answer, how many years, ten years?

A few months is impossible, but even a few months is enough for the market to completely forget the word "delicious".

Forgetfulness and liking the new and disliking the old are common problems of human beings!

"Then study here!" Li Zitao stood up from his seat.

After he left, a group of staff walked in outside the house, carrying bundles of telephone wires and several telephones in their hands.

In 5 minutes, the scene became a 'communication room. '

From all over the world, no matter which state the person they communicate with is in, as long as there is a phone call, they can be contacted.

With such a scene in front of them, the representatives present gathered face to face, and finally picked up the microphone in front of them helplessly.

"It's done?" Seeing Li Zitao coming in from the door with a leisurely look, Lawrence, who was staying in the office, asked a little surprised.

"En..." snorting with his nose, Li Zitao felt that this time he was sure.

Forced by the situation, even if Keke is reluctant, he has to face the facts.

Unless, they can immediately come up with a new product.

But Kekou, who is 'concentrated', has been making happy water. Where did he come up with new products, 'So, being too focused may not be a good thing! '
