Chapter 1886 Someone started a trade war!
Since Meili Group entered the international market, it has quickly opened up the US market with its two brands, Jiebai and Meisi.
The inexpensive and high-quality products have won the love of overseas users.
However, the sales of Beauty Group products have also touched the interests of some people.
On the night when Yang Fei arrived in the United States, he received a call from Sean.
Xiao En knew that Yang Fei was coming to the United States, and after the call was connected, he asked if Yang Fei had arrived.
Yang Fei smiled and said that he had arrived, and he was living at the villa.
Xiao En said: “There is something very important, let me talk to you in person.”
Yang Fei pondered: “Are you convenient?”
Xiao En said: “It should be fine.”
Yang Fei said: “Then come here.”
After half an hour, Sean came to the villa.
Yang Fei and others are having barbecue in the garden of the villa.
Linda and Fu Ying are responsible for the barbecue, and Chen Mo and Ning Xin are responsible for the skewers.
Of course, the elders are responsible for waiting for the food.
Mice and Ma Feng have their own tasks. Mice is responsible for the security of the house, and Ma Feng is responsible for the security of the door.
There is a servant’s room on the first floor of the villa, where Rat and Ma Feng live in it, which is convenient for patrolling at night.
Ma Feng has been notified that as soon as he saw Xiao En’s car approaching, he opened the door of the villa and let him go.
Linda got up happily when she saw her father’s arrival, and rushed over: “Dad!”
Xiao En gently hugged his daughter, and then met Yang Fei and the others.
Seeing so many people there, Xiao En hesitated slightly, wondering whether to talk about it or not.
Yang Fei smiled and said, “These people are all my good friends, Mr. Xiao En, if you have anything to say, it doesn’t matter.”
Xiao En nodded, and then said, “Mr. Yang, I have reliable information, and they will sue you for dumping.”
Yang Fei knew who he meant by “them”.
“Sue me for dumping?” Yang Fei smiled. “Is this wrong? Where did I commit dumping? They don’t know the definition of dumping, right?”
Chen Mo said: “Yes, anti-dumping refers to the measures taken to resist the dumping of foreign goods on the domestic market. We have our own factories in the United States, and we sell things produced in the American factories to Americans. This is not an import or export. Product, why is it guilty of dumping?”
Ning Xin snorted coldly, and said, “It’s really a crime to add to it, so why not have words?”
Yang Fei groaned: “Products made in my country are often subject to anti-dumping rulings by the United States. As far as I know, many products have encountered anti-dumping prosecutions at the beginning of this year, including chemical brighteners, galvanized steel wires, steel wheels, Products such as photovoltaic cells. As the trade friction between the two countries has intensified, it is possible for some people to take the opportunity to bite people.”
Chen Mo said: “At the beginning, we were afraid of anti-dumping by the United States, so we came to the United States to open factories. Then they can’t fight back if they want to.”
Sean shrugged, spread his hands, and said, “They said that although the Beauty Group has a factory in the United States, it still has some products that rely on imports. Moreover, the products you produce in the United States have more than half of the raw materials They are imported. Because of this, the prices of Beauty Group’s products can be low, and you can remain invincible in the competition with the domestic daily chemical industry in the United States.”
Yang Fei said, “This is really something born out of nothing!”
Xiao En said: “They are just a bunch of unreasonable people. If they are reasonable, they won’t sue you for dumping.”
Yang Fei said, “Sean, have they already sued?”
Xiao En said: “I only got the news today. It was their high-level decision. Actions should be taken soon. Mr. Yang, you should respond as soon as possible.”
Yang Fei smiled bitterly: “This is the United States, what can I do? They are going to file a lawsuit, I can only fight with them.”
Sean said: “You can’t put your hope of winning the case on the Federal Court. You must save yourself. The Federal Court and commercial officials must help Procter & Gamble.”
Yang Fei frowned.
This was the first time he encountered such a thing.
Anti-dumping is a commonly used method in trade wars to sanction opponents.
If the Beauty Group wants to enter the world, it will definitely encounter the anti-dumping strategies of many countries.
Yang Fei has a factory in the United States, so he thought he could sit back and relax.
He still underestimated the ruthlessness of the enemy!
When the business war can’t beat you, the other party shamelessly resorted to the trade war!
How to deal with this kind of emergency?
Yang Fei asked: “In case, I mean if they win, what will happen to us? What sanctions will we get?”
Sean said: “The biggest possibility is to levy additional taxes, that is, anti-dumping duties.”
Chen Mo said: “Why? It’s not imported! We produce products here! Even if this lawsuit goes to the United Nations, we are not afraid!”
Xiao En said: “One thing is the fact that Beauty Group does import a lot of raw materials.”
Chen Mo said, “Those are raw materials, but the products are produced by our American company. They can’t impose taxes on our products, right?”
Xiao En laughed: “They can impose tariffs on some imported raw materials, and they can also achieve the goal of increasing your production costs.”
“unacceptable!”
“It’s shameless!”
Chen Mo and Ning Xin were indignant.
After the outbreak of the global financial crisis, due to the rapid shrinking of international market demand, companies from all countries are facing the dual pressure of competing for the international and domestic markets.
Many countries have introduced various trade protection measures to support and protect their own industries and prevent trade diversion caused by the shrinking international market.
It can be said that in the United States, as long as there is a lawsuit by a large local company, the US business organization will accept it, and then there will be a long lawsuit.
This kind of international lawsuit usually lasts for a year or even several years.
Whether the defense can win the case is difficult to predict.
In the process of litigation, companies have to pay a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources.
If you can win, it’s okay to say, if you lose, the tariffs imposed are terribly high.
The increase in tariffs is entirely made by the other party’s lion. It is common to impose 30% or 50% of the tariffs, and some are even as high as 85% or more!
High tariffs will inevitably cause a chain reaction. The cost of your raw materials will be high, and the cost of your products will be high, and the selling price will inevitably increase, then your price advantage will disappear.
The soaring price will definitely cause many consumers to abandon it. The final result is that the company is struggling to survive.
Of course, Yang Fei knew how powerful it was, so he was worried.
The global strategy has just started, and it has encountered a strong counterattack!
Linda is still a student doesn’t know much about the dangers of society. She grilled a handful of beef skewers, handed it to Yang Fei, and said with a smile, “Satisfy your stomach first, and then think of a solution!”
Yang Fei was thinking about countermeasures, but he didn’t react for a while, so he didn’t answer him.
Linda smiled and passed a bunch of beef to his mouth, and fed it to him: “Yang Fei, what are you thinking about? Why ignore me?”
Seeing this scene, Chen Mo and Ning Xin looked at each other.
Ning Xin pursed her lips, raised her heels, and stamped Yang Fei’s toes.
Yang Fei screamed, and recovered from thinking.
Ning Xin said: “Nerdy! There is a beautiful woman to feed you meat! Eat it!”
Yang Fei opened his mouth and bit the beef in Linda’s hand.
Everyone laughed…
