Volume 8 Final Chapter Chapter 1092 Mysterious Place
After reading some information in the study, Nan Yi returned to Peacock Lake and saw Yuan Dan and Aiga Waze eating a bag of instant noodles together. He walked up to them with an extremely unhappy mood, and without saying hello, he reached out and took a handful and put it in his mouth.
He chewed it and tasted it. It tasted like chicken, and it was okay. But because it tasted okay, Nan Yi was even more upset. He raised his hand and slapped Yuan Dan on the back of his head. "You little bastard, why don't you eat your own fire fox? What are you eating Wai Wai (Wai Wai)? You are helping the enemy, don't you know?"
Wai Wai, a Thai brand, took a similar route to Red Bull a few years ago and cooperated with the Chaudhry Group in Nepal to launch Wai Wai instant noodles in Nepal. The marketing was very successful, defeating Maggi, the only instant noodles brand sold in Nepal at the time, and integrating Wai Wai into Nepal's dietary system.
In Nepal today, both families and restaurants will provide the choice of Wai Wai instant noodles in addition to Dal Bhat (Nepalese main meal). Some Nepalese street restaurants will sell a reduced version of boiled Wai Wai for breakfast, accompanied by a fried egg and a cup of milk tea. After filling their stomachs, they can go to work or school.
After gaining a foothold in Nepal and occupying half of the market, Waiwai went out of Nepal and conquered South Asia, including India, Kazakhstan, and Bangladesh, and then entered Egypt and Europe. Especially in India, Waiwai instant noodles, Maggi and Firefox were the three major players in the fierce competition.
"I'm tired of it, let's change the taste." Yuandan replied expressionlessly.
"If you get tired of it, eat other snacks. Why eat instant noodles? Don't eat them. Dinner is about to start." Nan Yi snatched the bag of instant noodles from Yuandan, held it in his hand and looked at it carefully, and started to think about something in his mind.
Maggi, a sub-brand of Nestlé, is definitely an alien species.
Waiwai comes from Nepal, but has built a factory in India. The ancestors of the Chaudhry Group’s owner, Binod Chaudhry, are Indians, and the group also has a lot of business in India. It can be regarded as a half-Indian local brand.
FireFox, a local Indian brand with a red heart towards Delhi, is one of the brands of Labor Food under Labor Group. The shareholders of Labor Group are all local patriots of India.
Nan Yi is quite disappointed with many Indians. They do not support domestic brands, but actually support foreign brands. They cannot distinguish right from wrong like this. If this continues, the country will no longer be an independent country.
It's a pity. India is carrying out its own reform and opening up (economic liberalization) and is vigorously attracting foreign investment. Now is not a good time to propose the concept of "Made in India". If they want to attack their opponents, they can only start from tapping into their internal strengths and advertising marketing. Otherwise, they have to find a few Swiss victims from the high number of sexual assault cases in India and, from a moral perspective, speak out for them in the media for three years.
Just as Nan Yi was having evil thoughts, the butler Diwaman came and called everyone to eat.
The weather was too hot, so we didn't need to go to the dining hall and could eat directly by the lake. The food was relatively simple, with only one staple dish, "Poha Chivda", which literally means flat rice seasoned with tamarind. There is no commonly accepted translation yet. The main ingredient is flat rice - the rice grains are pressed into thin slices slightly thicker than paper, and the process is similar to that of oatmeal.
While eating, Nan Yi chatted with Priyanka about some small incidents. He selected one or two items from traditional Indian food and processed them into instant foods, which were then sold overseas under the Firefox brand. If they could sell well, that would be the best. If not, he would fabricate news about them and then find a few "foreigners" to give a thumbs up and praise India, Indian food, and Indian Firefox, which is top-notch!
This will boost Firefox's sales in India.
Alternatively, you can use the Para Commandos as a prototype to create a fictional Fire Fox Commandos, a special forces unit among special forces, and create a series of special operations movies based . Needless to say, the villains are of course Pakistan in the first film, and we will talk about the rest later. The plot creation is relatively simple. Collect some previous battle examples from the members of the advance defense team, and tweak them a bit. It is more than enough to shoot dozens of films.
In short, there must be the touching scene of the Firefox instant noodles being used to block bullets and explosion shock waves, and the protagonists being trapped in desperate situations and sharing the Firefox instant noodles.
The tentative name of the film series is "Fox Wars", and the first film is "Fox Wars: The Untold Story". The protagonist is Kaul, codenamed God of War.
Nan Yi likes Brij Mohan Kaur very much, so the protagonist is named Kaur as a tribute to him.
Priyanka strongly agreed with the branding part of the operation, but rolled her eyes at Nan Yi for the movie part. She not only complained about the creativity, but also despised Nan Yi's idea of naming the protagonist Kaur.
Nan Yi feels that the creativity of the film is better than the brand, so he asks Johnny to send a few team members to provide tactical and tactical action guidance, and try to shoot it in a professional direction as much as possible, and then incorporate local Indian fighting techniques, which should be very promising.
If "War Fox" does well at the box office, they can also release the more humorous "War Elephants", tearing Pakistani devils apart with bare hands, using yoga's clavicle technique to hide in sewer pipes for sneak attacks, using curry grenades, masala tear gas, India has too much material to explore, and perhaps a new film genre can be created - anti-Pakistani drama.
When Nan Yi was thinking of some nonsensical ideas, Fan Hongdou had just attended an internal meeting of the Agriculture Group of the Information and Strategy Committee. At the meeting, she was appointed as the captain of the instant noodle interest team.
The Instant Noodles Interest Group was established with two small goals: first, to establish the World Instant Noodles Association; second, to allow Nan's to dominate the instant noodles industry in Asia.
According to statistics from the agricultural group, the world's instant noodles consumption potential ranking is: China, Indonesia, Vietnam, India, Japan, the United States, the Philippines, South Korea, Thailand, Brazil, Nigeria, Russia, Malaysia, Nepal, and Mexico.
As far as instant noodles are concerned, Asia is the world, and dominating Asia is infinitely equivalent to dominating the world.
After becoming the glorious team leader, Fan Hongdou was determined to work hard for the team. So she flew to Seoul and lived in Nan Jiajun's villa.
"Sister, the ramen brands in the South Korean market right now include Nam Baba from Shin Miracle Group, Nongshim from Nongshim Group, Samyang from Samyang Group, Buloh from Yakult, Paldo from Yakult, E-Mart from Shinsegae Group, and Pulmuone from Pulmuone. The sales ranking is Nongshim, Samyang, and Nam Baba."
Fan Hongdou flipped through the information in her hand and asked casually, "Which brand is easiest to acquire?"
Nan Jiajun smiled bitterly and said, "Each brand is strong, and none of them has the possibility of being acquired for the time being."
Fan Hongdou nodded. "It doesn't matter. Temporary does not mean forever. Opportunities will always appear. The agricultural team concluded that the international wheat price will rise next year. There is a chance that the price per bushel will rise by more than one dollar. The cost of most instant noodle companies will increase."
Fan Hongdou closed the information, took out a document from her bag and handed it to Nan Jiajun, "Agricultural Capital wants to acquire 15% of NW Entertainment's shares from New Miracle Group to build a global agricultural product endorsement matrix. They also need a spokesperson with a positive image in South Korea."
Nan Jiajun took the information and flipped through it. "Are there any gender requirements for spokespersons?"
"President Jiang didn't specify, but I think it would be better for men, as negative news would have less impact on their image."
"Okay, I'll give the order."
After a brief stay in Seoul, Fan Hongdou flew to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, visited the Guo family, and then flew to Jakarta, Indonesia.
Nan Yi was still staying in Peacock Villa, but he was no longer as comfortable as he was in the past two days. He stared at the computer screen looking at information, listened to the discussions on the conference call, and said a few words from time to time.
The two small goals of the instant noodle interest team require the mobilization of a large amount of resources and funds, involving many departments and facing many multinational companies. The layout needs to be done first, and then wait for the economic crisis to come.
After two days of discussion on the phone, Nan Yi flew to New York, and the relevant people sat together for another day to discuss. They went over the things to do and the financial budget, listed the difficulties that might be encountered, and discussed the response strategies.
After returning to Mumbai, Nan Yi held the party he had been preparing for.
At the party, Nan Yi chatted with Aiga Vaze's father, Pabu Vaze, and asked him to arrange the procedures for him to go to Manipur, and to get some information about Manipur from the security department.
After getting the information, Nan Yi studied it for two days. After coming to the conclusion that Manipur was chaotic but not dangerous, he embarked on a journey to Manipur.
The northeastern region where Manipur is located is connected to the main body of the Indian subcontinent only by a narrow Siliguri Corridor, which is only 20 kilometers at its narrowest point. One can imagine how fragile its connection with the main body of India is.
Manipur is not large in area, but was called "the treasure of India" by Nehru because of its beautiful ecology; it has a small population, but is home to dozens of ethnic minorities, with 34 statutory tribes alone; it has a deep historical connection with China, but because it is located in a sensitive area in the northeast, few Chinese people have set foot there.
Historically, because Manipur was an important transportation hub, the king collected customs fees here, so Manipur was once richer than nearby areas.
However, one bad thing is that drugs from Myanmar also flow into India from here. Drug trafficking is a fairly common phenomenon here, and the huge profits make people willing to take risks for it.
Manipur's population is not large, only 0.23% of India's, but their AIDS patients account for 8% of India's total, which is undoubtedly a very high number.
Manipur has always been an independent state with a history of two thousand years. Its situation is similar to that of Nepal. It has no relationship with India and has never been occupied or ruled by India.
It was not until the British army occupied India that they found an excuse to annex Manipur. When the British army withdrew from India, they gave Manipur to India, its once most obedient younger brother. So Manipur joined India. It can be seen that it would be strange if the relationship between Manipur and India could be good.
In fact, Manipur has never stopped its independence movement.
In 1958, India enacted a very tough law "AFSPA", which can be called a suppression law or an anti-terrorism law. In 1980, due to the riots in Manipur, the Indian government declared it a riot zone and it has since been under the control of the anti-terrorism law.
The core of the anti-terrorism law is actually to regard the controlled areas as colonies. The Indian army implements martial law in the area. For the people of Manipur, the Indian army is the embodiment of the devil and is capable of all kinds of evil.
The Manipuris belong to the Mongol race and look very similar to the Chinese. Their ancestors came from China and are descendants of the Qi people who migrated south during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period. Therefore, they do have historical ties with China.
Later, due to the introduction of Hinduism and the conquest by the British, it gradually deviated from Chinese civilization and moved towards South Asianization, but many Chinese elements in cultural customs continue to this day.
For example, the traditional values of Manipur are respecting the elderly and loving the young, and attaching importance to family. The locals worship dragons. The background of the Sangay Festival is two flying dragons. The ancient Kangla Palace, as a symbol of royal power, also has a dragon totem.
Manipuri language belongs to the Sino-Tibetan language family, and its pronunciation is different from that of Hindi. The locals' favorite traditional musical instruments, such as bamboo flute and martial arts , and culture also have a strong Chinese style.
Compared with other places in India, the eating habits here are more like those of China. Rice is the staple food, and people prefer light food that is easy to steam or cook. Unlike Indian food, which is spiced and spicy, the first meal Nan Yi had when he entered Imphal, the capital of Manipur, was bamboo shoots, pickles, pickled fish, stewed braised pork, etc., which are similar to the taste in Yunnan Province.
The English penetration rate in Imphal is quite good, and most people in Imphal can speak a few sentences. Therefore, after entering Imphal, Nan Yi and his party spoke English, and Chinese was hidden. Even the passports in their hands were all Delnan passports, which were prepared when they were in Moscow.
The reason for this is that whether people from other states in India or foreigners want to enter Manipur, they need special approval. In theory, the application will be approved, but in fact, Chinese people are strictly prohibited from entering Manipur, and speaking Chinese may cause unnecessary trouble.
Perhaps because of the skin color, Manipur gives Nanyi the feeling that it is a little cleaner than Mumbai, but in fact the streets are not much cleaner than Mumbai. There are still many people, cars are still running around, and the sound of horns is endless.
After dinner, Nan Yi and his party went to the temple fair night market, which is very lively during the Sangai Festival. The layout of the stalls is very similar to that in China, and also contains the style of South Asia. The food tends to be domestic, with fried noodles, fried rice, dumplings, and buns steaming hot and fragrant.
As for the "Six-Star Red Flag" that Nan Yi had heard of before, he had not seen it. However, before entering Manipur, he had seen from the information that in the 1960s, some independent forces in Manipur were deeply influenced by the "export of revolution". "Selected Works of Mao Zedong" and "On Guerrilla Warfare" were must-haves, so some things would naturally be similar.
Nan Yi had some speculations about this. He estimated that Manipur had the idea of flirting with China at the beginning, and fantasized about becoming a Manipur-China friend like Pakistan.
At the night market, Nan Yi saw many commodities from China, including clothes, accessories, small commodities, small household appliances, etc. 100% of these things came from China via Myanmar, and most of the profits were earned by the Burmese.
Just like the arrangement in Russia, one must be mentally prepared for the possibility of all investments going down the drain, and also arrange a retreat in actual operations. Manipur is the retreat route chosen by Nan Yi for his strategy to conquer India. Once the situation develops in a bad direction, there will be a place to transfer the investment in India.
At the same time, Manipur has a population of nearly 2 million, which is a considerable potential market. We can not only use commodity trade as an opportunity to enter Manipur, but also grab some start-up funds for the Manipur strategy.
In front of a stall, Nan Yi saw the Walkman produced by Lin Guangwei's factory, so he stopped and picked up one to watch. Unexpectedly, the male stall owner suddenly said, "Sir, do you want it? I can give you a discount."
Chinese, with an accent. If Nan Yi's ears were not problematic, the stall owner should have been to Ngwu.
Nan Yi raised his head, looked around, and then looked at the stall owner from head to toe without any concealment, "How do you know I can speak Chinese?"
"Sir, you have obvious Chinese features," the stall owner said calmly.
"Really?" Nan Yi laughed and became interested in the stall owner in front of him. "My name is Chen Yi, what's your name, boss?"
"My name is Hongcang."
"I admire you. The boss is really knowledgeable."
Nan Yi laughed awkwardly. He really didn't expect that the stall owner in front of him was so knowledgeable. He used the secular name of Xuanzang as a cover, and the other party directly replied with the Indian pronunciation of Xuanzang.
"Let me introduce myself to you again. My name is Nan Yi. What's your name, boss?"
