Chapter 1113 Bant’s analysis (eighth update, please vote for me)

Chen Zhao and Fali arrived at Bant's house and found that Bant had moved all the barbecue boxes out.

And got some wheat beer that he brewed himself.

Because Fali couldn't drink, she drove, so Chen Zhao didn't need to worry about drinking with Bant.

"Bant, Dean Slott came to me just now and asked me to invest in rebuilding the brewery." Chen Zhao said.

Although Fali heard Chen Zhao's words, it was as if it had nothing to do with her and she did not interrupt.

Anyway, Chen Zhao will still talk to her after returning home.

Bant, who was quite eloquent at first, suddenly fell silent.

Drink the beer in the cup in one gulp.

After half the payment, he asked: "Did you agree?"

"I'm not sure. On the one hand, I'm not familiar with the profitability of this brewery, and on the other hand, I want to hear your suggestions."

Bant must be more familiar with it than Chen Zhao, so Chen Zhao's first thought was to ask Bant.

If it were Bant's personal wish, he would certainly be willing to rebuild the brewery.

After all, he was a bartender at the brewery, and he had family skills.

But Chen Zhao is his best friend, so he still needs to tell some things.

"Chen, it is a good thing to rebuild the brewery, but we cannot fully invite back the past employees of the brewery."

"Why?"

"In the past, there were too many employees in the brewery. Sometimes three or four positions were recruited for each position. As long as the residents of the town were unconditionally recruited, most of the employees became bastards." Bant said: "Secondly, there are still many employees with unclean hands and feet."

Chen Zhao frowned. Dirty hands and feet were a taboo.

Chen Zhao can afford the loss, but that doesn't mean that Chen Zhao is willing to raise moths.

"The second is the confusion in the accounts."

This is not surprising to Chen Zhao. After all, the previous owner gave him an opportunity because of the chaos in his accounts.

"If you want to rebuild the brewery, then it is very likely that the chaotic situation of the past will be restored. If you recruit those people again, then the bad things of the past will happen again, but if you don't recruit, then the town's People will gossip and say you are a capitalist, but you don’t care, but Fali and little Gelin will also be hurt indirectly.”

From Chen Zhao's perspective, Bante Station helped Chen Zhao consider many issues that Chen Zhao could not consider.

"Then if you take care of it, can you take care of it?" Chen Zhao asked.

"I can't control it. I'm an old face here, and those people are not afraid of me at all." Bant said helplessly.

"Then according to what you said, this winery doesn't need to be run?"

Chen Zhao doesn't care about the profit, as long as he doesn't lose money.

Within his ability, Chen Zhao is also willing to make a small contribution if it can bring benefits to the town.

However, if you invest in it, lose money, and raise a group of thieves, then no one is willing to accept it.

"Chen, if you want to open a brewery, then break away from the relationship with the small town." Bant said: "Half of the positions are filled with people from other places. As long as there is comparison, the employees in the small town will be restrained a lot."

“The brewery’s trademark brand is still in the hands of the town government.”

The only valuable thing about the brewery now may be its thirty-year-old trademark.

But the longer it takes, the less valuable the trademark becomes.

Now the Dashan Beer trademark has disappeared from the eyes of consumers for more than a year.

Consumers are very forgetful, and if a beer has not appeared in their field of vision for more than a year, they may have forgotten about this brand of beer.

Coca-Cola did a test in the past. They stopped advertising for a month, and sales dropped by 80%.

It didn’t fall to 80%, it fell by 80%.

Of course, Dashan Beer’s advertising investment and influence are definitely not at the level of Coca-Cola.

Dashan Beer is a regional product, and its consumer groups are all in the Los Angeles area.

However, in more than a year, the brand value of Dashan Beer has dropped by more than 50%.

If it is delayed for another year, the brand value may not even be 10% of the original value.

Because there are too many similar products on the market, they can be easily replaced.

Consumers will not stop buying a product just because there is a lack of similar products from any brand; they can easily find substitutes.

The Dashan Town Government now cannot afford the money to rebuild the brewery.

If you follow Bant's proposal, you will either buy this brand directly, or establish a brand new beer brand.

If you buy a brand, the town government will definitely open your mouth and come out ruthlessly.

If you are building a new brand, it will be difficult to open up the situation.

Both have advantages and disadvantages.

If we cooperate with the Dashan Town government, then the land will be owned by Dashan Town and the brand trademark will still belong to Dashan Town, but it will inevitably have to support a lot of idle people.

"Chen, Dean Slott is planning to run for mayor again recently. He must be very anxious now. After all, your answer is very important to him, so don't answer him so quickly. You can hang him first and wait. He has agreed to some of your requests. If you continue to cooperate with him and try to get as many discounts as possible, it doesn't matter to you whether you can open a brewery or not, but it doesn't matter to him. If you don't have a bargaining chip in hand, With his past reputation, it would be difficult for him to become the mayor."

"If I open a brewery, will you help me?" Chen Zhao asked.

"As long as you need me, I will definitely come." Bant said.

“What about your carpentry workshop?”

"It's okay. The carpentry workshop that my old friend and I started was just for fun when we had nothing to do. To pass the time, the investment in the workshop was only a few thousand dollars, and he can do it alone. The world would be the same without anyone else. Turn." Bant said calmly: "Besides, you may not be able to open a brewery."

"By the way, did Dean Slott accept bribes?" Chen Zhao asked.

In fact, Chen Zhao's impression of Dean Slott is not bad.

Maybe it's because of the personal relationship.

Chen Zhao always felt that Dean Slott was not as bad as the rumors in the town.

"How do I know? If I had evidence, he would have been in jail long ago." Bant said disapprovingly: "But I do know that he did some disgraceful things when he was the mayor of the town."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"Forget it, let's not talk about it. Although this guy has exceeded the bottom line, he is still very capable in management. When he was the mayor in the past, there was no big trouble in the town."

Chen Zhao quite agrees with this.

Compared to a year ago, the town is relatively stable.

But now, there are many more gangsters on the streets.
