Chapter 836: 831 Aquatic products boss was summoned

However, Gu Chen had always believed that many things could be cultivated gradually.

Including this energy drink, provided that his marketing strategies were good enough, this drink could also become a blockbuster product.

But then again, there were currently few sports phenomena in society, which would become a problem in the future.

Of course, this wasn’t an issue for Gu Chen to worry about. With his abilities, he simply couldn’t change the entire societal landscape.

At most, he could bring changes to himself and those around him.

"Honey, what if they really succeed and take all our market share? Would our brand be gone?"

Pian Ran was very worried and asked Gu Chen, his current concern weighing heavily on him.

He was frightened, scared that if such a thing truly happened, wouldn’t his brand be destroyed?

What would happen to his company then? And all those employees within the company?

He had invested so much into this company that if it were just to disappear like that, it would be more painful than killing him.

"Don’t worry, no matter what happens, your husband is here. I’ll help you," Gu Chen reassured him, patting his head, urging him not to focus all his thoughts on these matters.

It was mainly to prevent him from becoming too anxious.

Pian Ran could only accept this outcome at that moment.

There was hardly anything he could do; he could only choose to trust Gu Chen.

Gu Chen had helped him with so many things for such a long time that, even if Pian Ran tried to count them, the list was too long to keep up with.

But she was very clear that everything Gu Chen did was for her good.

At that moment, Gu Chen quickly told him to go to sleep, stop puzzling over work, and leave any issues for him to deal with the next day.

While he went to sleep, Gu Chen sat on the sofa looking at the documents.

The source of the copycat drink was still undiscovered, and nobody knew where the company came from.

Only that their company, upon actually visiting those supermarkets and inquiring,

finally concluded there would be a supplier driving a truck around their supermarkets repeatedly asking questions.

And the product offered was significantly cheaper, their supermarkets’ purchase price was also extremely low.

A bottle sold could earn much more profit than their Pian Ran’s company could.

It was precisely for this reason that the supermarkets remembered all their offers.

Actually, supermarkets didn’t care about how much a bottle of drink was sold for; they were concerned about the profit they could make.

Even if an item could be sold for hundreds of dollars, if their profit was merely one dollar, they wouldn’t be willing to sell that product.

But if even a five-dollar item could yield a two-dollar profit for them, they would treat that product as the superstar of their supermarket.

That was the real focus of the supermarkets, while only ordinary customers would care about the product price.

While looking at these materials, Gu Chen had more or less figured out the answer; he guessed it was probably not a legitimate company doing the imitation, as a normal company would have a legal department well aware of these things, their product must be produced by a small workshop, which was even more peculiar.

If it had been a large company, Gu Chen could have understood, perhaps they had invested a large sum in researching,

eventually figuring out some of the ingredients in the drink and synthesizing them slightly to create it.

But for a small workshop, they simply wouldn’t have high-end equipment,

nor enough talented people, nor sufficient funds.

How could they have managed to imitate this drink? This was the biggest question.

At that moment, even though Gu Chen had some idea of the answer, he still needed to ask about it himself to know the specific situation.

However, he was quite disappointed about this matter in his heart.

Because everything happening now wasn’t what he initially wanted to see.

There must be a secret in this small workshop. He had to expose it.

Because Gu Chen guessed that the cost price for this small workshop must be low, it was very possible that there indeed was a problem with Pian Ran’s company.

Of course, until all the issues were confirmed, he couldn’t tell Pian Ran.

Because once Pian Ran became suspicious, it could easily startle the snake.

It could also easily lead to disunity within their company, and by then, it would all be revealed.

Considering the long term, he needed to start investigating and gradually unearth the answers behind this matter.

While he went to sleep, that very night, all the seafood market bosses were summoned together.

This was a legitimate, high-end restaurant, but the restaurant was devoid of other patrons, almost as if it had been booked for a private event.

All these seafood bosses sat on pins and needles, surrounded by people crowding around them.

These individuals stared fiercely at them, as if any minor move from the bosses

would lead these people to directly use force, making the seafood bosses understand the power of fists.

At that moment, all seafood bosses sat there cluelessly, not understanding why they had been summoned suddenly in the middle of the night.

"Can you ask Brother Pao what exactly is going on?" At that moment, one bald and shrewd-looking seafood boss asked one of Brother Pao’s men.

Brother Pao’s man just coldly glanced at him and then said, "Wait here, Brother Pao will be here shortly."

When he spoke, he seemed very impatient, as if he didn’t want to explain anything further to the old man in front of him.

After being silenced, the seafood boss simply returned to his seat, not daring to say anything else.

They were all accustomed to dealing with various people in society, and they were very aware of how powerful Brother Pao was.

Generally speaking, those who offended him didn’t end well.

So, even if they were given eight hundred doses of courage, none of them dared to utter another word at this moment.

And just at that moment, Brother Pao also arrived.

With someone accompanying him, it was Director Yin, who had been abruptly woken up in the middle of the night.

Director Yin followed behind Brother Pao, and he knew who Brother Pao was.

He didn’t understand why Brother Pao had suddenly summoned him and even instinctively sensed that something bad would happen tonight.

Inside, he was panic-stricken, knowing Brother Pao’s way of handling things. Could it be that someone had commissioned him to deal with himself?

At that moment, his mind was in turmoil, yet he dared not say anything and could only feign calmness as he followed behind.
