Derive a relation between the two passages?
Answer the question based on the following passages.
Passage – 1
The ongoing conflict between two mega cola companies
is known to all. All carbonated beverages generally lie under
the flagship of two champs in this field, Coca Cola Company
and PepsiCo. The brand conflict has furthered to a great
(5) extent. The lust to dominate does not extend to supermarkets
alone. The turmoil extends from control over restaurants
supply of colas to supplies to big countries. The rivalry is for
global control.
This long battle to sweep the global market has lasted for
(10) decades. It seems as legendary as the conflict of good and
evil. But the choice depends on consumers’ taste buds.
The consumer taste criteria adjudge what is ‘good’ and what
is the ‘evil’.
Both Coca cola and PepsiCo leave no stone unturned. They
(15) go to the extent of deterring the rival company on URLs
and through commercials. Despite all the convulsive
episodes, and both companies claiming the ball to be in
their court, the consumer i.e. the jury is still undecided who
rules the market.
Passage – 2
The steaming competition is forcing the companies to launch
new products. The companies are daily remodeling their
marketing strategy. Through commercials, promotional
campaigns and consumer benefit schemes they want to
(5) take the market with a stride but the judgment of the winner
lies with the rising sales, profits and consumer loyalty. They
are trying to increase the market share in other beverage
categories.
The war to lead the market goes on. Though Pepsi has often
(10) shown the strategy of developing new products, Coke
followed the steps and instructed the newly appointed
marketing executives to pursue the same technique. Pepsi
had innovative advertising ideas which Coca Cola lacked to
an extent but both have tried to find and capture any new
(15) market (foreign) that they could.
The Coca Cola advertising heads have now tried to capture
youth’s fancy by using celebrities. While Coca Cola is trying
to bank on nostalgia with its new ‘Vanilla Coke. (John Travolta
in pulp fiction at 50’s themed diner), Pepsi is taking over the
(20) young chasers with Blue Pepsi. Whereas Coke is a leader in
sodas, Pepsi banks on its snack business. If Pepsi allures the
new genre, Coke also has a way to go with new consumers in
its kitty.
