The senior manager regretted it very much. "I admit that I took our opponent lightly. But most importantly, Ryan is so good at playing tricks. I'm afraid that he has long since come up with the idea of renting his factories!"
Ryan did have a plan, but he has been confronting Roxxon head-on for a month before closing his factories. No one would doubt that he did so out of desperation!
My colleagues and I were of the same mind, so we didn't launch an investigation immediately, which left Ryan a chance to fight back! Now they are earning money by making use of Roxxon's demands while Roxxon was losing money!"
A sullen light flickered in Patrick as he said in a creepily calm voice. "Are you saying that Ryan has long come up with the idea of renting factories?"
The manager licked his dry lips and said, "Yes! When I noticed that something was amiss two days ago, I asked the owners of those factories diplomatically when they started such a partnership with Ryan.
And their answers were too shocking!" "When?" Patrick asked coldly.
"They said the second day after the half-off sale of our stores, Ryan approached them voluntarily and told them his analysis of the situation. After a few days of observation, they all came to realize that it was a good opportunity to take advantage of Roxxon and deiced to join hands with Ryan immediately I"
After a few seconds' silence, Patrick spat out, "There's a mole in our company!"
The manager's heart was in his throat. "Mr. Hopper, who do you think it could be?"
Patrick fixed his fierce gaze at the manager.
"Mr. Hopper, I can't be the mole! I am fully responsible for this task. If there is a single mistake,
I would be the first to be suspected and punished, as you are doing now, wouldn't I? In that case, how dare I betray our company and cause you and Roxxon such a great loss!"
His words made sense. It was just that Patrick was a little disappointed with him.
For Ryan's being able to rise again, on the one hand, it was very likely that someone had warned him in advance. On the other hand, it showed that Roxxon hadn't done enough homework on their rival!
It wasn't just his managers. The horrifying part was that Patrick himself had believed that Ryan and his Dream had run out of their luck. In the end, he
almost had taken all of Ryan's tricks lightly!
But at this time, Patrick had no time to complain about Ryan or to blame himself. He ordered quickly, "Listen up, tell all the managers of our department stores to put all the drinks back on price. The sale is over from now on!"
"Got it!" Since Ryan had found another way out for his factories, there was no need for Roxxon to be in a price war anymore.
"After that, have our PR Department contact all the factories immediately and return as many goods in warehouses as possible. If they ask why, just tell them that Roxxon is oversupplied," Patrick continued.
The senior manager asked, "What if they refuse us?"
Patrick curled his lips, "They won't. We've sold enough in the last month and a half for them to respect our decision."
Although the senior manager had a dark look on his face, he heaved a sigh of relief inwardly.
Watching Roxxon keep losing money in drinks, as employees who had been working in Roxxon for a long time, they were so anxious these days.
Now that Patrick had made trouble, he finally started to fix it. To be honest, it was the first time the manager had been so happy at their failure!
