Brody's call was naturally from his father, Robinson.
On the phone, Robinson angrily scolded Brody.
Like Zheng Peng's father, Robinson had just received a call from the Maya Group. The people from the Maya Group informed him without the slightest emotion that the Maya Group would remove all Golden Oak Winery's wines from the shelves.
This was not the worst. After all, Golden Oak Winery was very large. In addition to the Australian domestic market, it also had a part of the export business. Even if it was hurt because of the comprehensive suppression of the domestic channels, at least it would not be in a desperate situation.
However, after Robinson received the call from the Maya Group, he immediately received calls from two companies that had overseas trade cooperation with Golden Oak Winery. They mercilessly said that they would terminate all cooperation with Golden Oak Winery.
To make matters worse, Robinson received a call from the bank one after another to ask for two loans that were about to mature.
If it was in the past, Robinson would have been able to deal with it easily. All he needed to do was to use the proceeds from domestic and international trade. Moreover, he had always maintained a good relationship with the bank. Even if the funds were not available for a short period of time, it would not be a problem to extend the deadline for a few days.
But now, the people from the bank did not have the slightest discussion. They said that if the money was not returned within the deadline, they would follow legal procedures and auction off the collateral assets of Golden Oak Winery.
Whether it was the Maya Group, the bank, or the overseas trading company, they all mentioned the same thing on the phone. Robinson's son, Brody, had offended the most distinguished guest of the Maya Group's chairman, Ethan Tang. This was Mr. Tang's punishment.
Robinson felt like the end of the world had come. He angrily called his son to ask about the situation.
Brody miserably told him what had just happened. When Robinson heard that the Huaxia person who had bought West Winery was actually Tang Yitian's friend, his heart sank to the bottom.
After the defeat at West Winery last time, Robinson had been thinking about how to suppress West Winery these days. He did not expect that before he could do anything, the other party had already made a move.
And the first move was such a fierce method. It was simply the rhythm of directly making Golden Oak Winery go bankrupt.
Robinson was not in the mood to be long-winded with Brody. He sternly ordered him to return to the winery immediately. There were a lot of urgent matters waiting for him to deal with.
Brodie and Zheng Peng left the hotel banquet hall in a daze.
The other farm owners and winery owners in the Hunter Valley who attended the reception witnessed this scene with their own eyes. Although they couldn't hear what was said over the phone, they could guess what had happened from Brody and Zheng Peng's words and expressions.
In particular, the words "take it off the shelves" and "bank" were able to provoke their sensitive nerves.
From the moment Xia Ruofei and the others left the banquet hall to the moment they received the call, it had only been ten minutes, but two large wineries were suddenly faced with a disaster.
Even the connections of banks and overseas trading companies were mobilized to attack Golden Oak Winery.
This made the farm owners and winery owners respect Xia Ruofei even more.
To be able to launch such a thunderous attack in such a short period of time, even for Tang Yitian, it was not easy to do so. For him to be able to vent Xia Ruofei's anger and use so many connections in such a short period of time, it could be seen how honorable Xia Ruofei's position in his heart was.
They had all heard Brodie's words and knew that Xia Ruofei was the owner of West Winery, so they all secretly reminded themselves to maintain a good relationship with West Winery. They also had to restrain their own people so that they would not be stupid enough to provoke West Winery.
Brodie was not far from Zheng Peng and Yin Jian!
At this time, Anthony, the person in charge of the Hunter Valley region of the Maya Group, received a phone call. He respectfully answered, then immediately walked to the stage and picked up the phone.
Anthony said, "Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Tang Hu said that the honorable Mr. Xia doesn't want what happened tonight to be publicized, and he doesn't want anyone to disturb him at West Winery. I think everyone should know what to do!"
Anthony said these words with a bright smile on his face, but his eyes were extremely sharp. He glanced around from left to right, and everyone couldn't help but avoid his gaze.
"Mr. Anthony, don't worry. We'll keep our mouths shut!"
"We know what to do. The honorable Mr. Xia won't be disturbed …"
After everyone expressed their opinions, Anthony nodded in satisfaction and walked down the stage. He casually picked up a glass of wine from the waiter's tray and raised it to everyone, saying, "Alright, gentlemen, the interlude is over. Now, everyone can freely communicate …"
…
In the lounge next to the banquet hall, Tang Hu whispered a few words in Tang Yitian's ear. Tang Yitian nodded and told Xia Ruofei how he dealt with the two wineries.
Xia Ruofei smiled and nodded. "Mr. Tang, thank you for your help."
Tang Yitian hurriedly said, "Mr. Xia, you're too kind. It's just a small matter to me. It's our honor to be able to solve a small problem for Mr. Xia!"
Tang Hu's expression froze. He could feel Tang Yitian's respect for Xia Ruofei from the bottom of his heart. He couldn't help but feel an uproar in his heart. He hadn't seen Tang Yitian maintain such a respectful attitude toward a young man for many years.
In fact, Tang Yitian's position in the Vigilante Society was very high. Even when he met the leaders of the Vigilante Society and the overseas Hong Sect, he still maintained a certain degree of restraint.
What was so special about this ordinary-looking young man that his fifth uncle valued him so much? Tang Hu also couldn't figure it out.
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "By the way, Mr. Tang, let me introduce you. This is my good friend Liang Qichao. He's also the person in charge of Paradise Farm."
Then Xia Ruofei said to Liang Qichao, "Brother Liang, you don't need me to introduce you to Mr. Tang, do you?"
Liang Qichao quickly said, "No, no! Mr. Tang is famous in Australia. Who doesn't know him? "
Tang Yitian smiled kindly and said, "Mr. Liang, you're too kind. Hello, it's nice to meet you!"
Liang Qichao felt like he was dreaming. Previously, he was still working hard to maintain a relationship with the person in charge of the Hunter Valley region of the Maya Group for Paradise Farm's sales channels. He didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, he would be able to chat happily with the chairman of the Maya Group, Tang Yitian, a legendary figure in Australia's retail industry.
Liang Qichao thought that Xia Ruofei was really amazing. Not only did he have connections in China, but he also knew such an awesome person in Australia. Moreover, this awesome person was also somewhat respectful to him.
Although many years had passed in his heart, Liang Qichao quickly said enthusiastically, "Mr. Tang, you're too polite. You can just call me Little Liang."
Tang Yitian said seriously, "You're Mr. Xia's friend, so I don't dare to be arrogant. But I'm a few years older than you, so I'll call you Qichao! "
"Okay, okay, that's a good name," Liang Qichao quickly said.
Although Xia Ruofei didn't say anything, Tang Yitian took the initiative to turn to Tang Hu and said, "Ah Hu, give the order. In the future, Paradise Farm and …"
Speaking of this, Tang Yitian looked at Xia Ruofei again and asked with a smile, "Mr. Xia, I just heard them say that you bought a winery in the past few days. Is it convenient for you to tell me the name of the winery? "
Xia Ruofei laughed and said, "Of course it's convenient. It's called West Winery. I'll be counting on you in the future, Mr. Tang!"
Tang Yitian quickly said, "You're too kind. It's my honor to be able to serve you!"
Tang Yitian then continued to say to Tang Hu, "Ah Hu, in the future, the products of Paradise Farm and West Winery must be displayed in the most prominent positions in all of our stores!"
"Understood! I'll give the order right away! "Tang Hu said seriously.
Xia Ruofei quickly said, "Mr. Tang, Paradise Farm is experimenting with planting our company's new vegetables. After I bought West Winery, I'm also preparing to improve the grape varieties. So, for the time being, our products aren't ready to be put on the market on a large scale …"
He introduced Liang Qichao to Tang Yitian for the sake of the large-scale planting of Taoyuan vegetables in the future. He didn't expect that before he even said anything, Tang Yitian directly told Tang Hu to reserve the most prominent shelves in their supermarkets for the products of Paradise Farm and West Winery.
Xia Ruofei didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Tang Yitian valued him too much …
Tang Yitian smiled and said, "Mr. Xia, Paradise Farm and West Winery must have products on sale now, right? Displaying them in the best positions in our supermarkets is also to build a reputation for large-scale sales in the future! "
Tang Hu also quickly said, "Yes, Mr. Xia, when your company is ready to put your products on the market on a large scale, let us know at any time. Our supermarkets will plan a few promotional activities to cooperate with the promotion. Don't worry, our supermarkets will be responsible for all the promotional costs!"
Tang Yitian looked at Tang Hu with appreciation and nodded. "Ah Hu is right. When the time comes, all the Meiya supermarkets in Australia will have a national promotional campaign. It will definitely be able to make your brand famous soon!"
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Mr. Tang, how can I do that?"
"Of course, of course. Mr. Xia is our family's great benefactor!" Tang Yitian quickly said, "For us, it's just a small matter within the scope of our ability. It's not worth mentioning."
Liang Qichao completely felt that his brain wasn't enough. How could this be a small matter? They had already occupied the best shelves in Meiya before going on the market on a large scale. In the future, there would be a national promotional campaign, and the cost of the promotion would be borne by the supermarkets. Even the first-tier brands in Australia wouldn't receive such treatment!
