    Song Yuran went out to negotiate, and the shareholders who got wind of it came to the company to make trouble.

    In Huo Qingzhi's view, his ordinary decision was dismissed as useless by shareholders.

    "Have you ever heard of Pintao?" Huo Yuandong was the first to express his opposition.

    He looked unhappy, and continued: "As far as I know, the headquarters of this website is not half as big as ours! And you still want to sell our clothes on this small website, isn't it a self-deprecation?What!"

    "That's right, Qingzhi, you can't be inflated just because you won a design competition. Now that Jane Eyre is gaining momentum, wouldn't it be better to take advantage of this east wind to produce a few more new styles? Going to a small website and lowering your value will not be better.Say, isn't this a free drainage for people?" Another shareholder echoed.

    "It's okay to attract or not. I'm afraid that consumers will think that our clothes are the same as those low-grade goods in the wholesale market. How will we do business in the future?"

    Shareholders have different opinions, but the ultimate goal is the same, and they disagree with Jane Eyre's entry into Pintao.

    Huo Qingzhi's heart sank, and he decided to hit an early bird first.

    "Wang Dong, the third-rate goods in the wholesale market you mentioned just now." Her eyes fell on Wang Dong, her eyes were sharp, and she smiled extremely coldly: "Did you forget that Watson is my mother's clothing wholesaler?"The business started, and now we have our own brand, do we look down on the goods in the wholesale market?"

    She said with deep meaning: "Wang Dong, you must not forget your roots as a human being."

    "..." Wang Dong was speechless, his face turned white and green.

    Gaining the upper hand for a short time, Huo Qingzhi looked around the audience, and then said: "The matter of entering Pintao is now a certainty. Since shareholders have asked, I will now briefly explain Watson's next development trend for you."

    "We will soon launch a joint clothing with Pintao, which will be sold exclusively on Pintao at that time, and we will quickly promote our activities by snapping up at low prices to achieve the goal of harvesting popularity in a short period of time."

    "What do you mean by 'low price'?" asked one shareholder.

    Huo Qingzhi didn't make false claims with them, and replied directly: "It's just nine yuan and nine free shipping."

    As soon as he finished speaking, the pot exploded underneath.

    Huo Yuandong couldn't bear it anymore, he slapped the table and stood up: "Nonsense! Do you know the concept of free shipping for nine yuan for a piece of clothing? Then how much do we have to pay? Do you do business like this if you only go in and out??!"

    "I know." Huo Qingzhi replied, "I also said that the main purpose of our joint launch of new models with Pintao is to promote fame and let more consumers know our brand. As long as we can leave a brand impression, consumers willIn principle, when we buy clothes in the future, Jane Eyre will also be included."

    "Of course, during the promotion period, there will also be consumers who browse the products in our online store out of interest. As long as they can be seen by others, there is a possibility of selling them."

    "Perhaps, at present, Pintao is an extremely small website in your eyes, but I can see its infinite possibilities. In the future, online shopping will enter thousands of households and realize the convenient life of what you see is what you get."

    "Before that, no company could reach the sky in one step, and they all needed someone's support, and Pintao's founding philosophy is worthy of our first step."

    "It's also a good investment."

    Huo Yuandong didn't listen to a word, and insisted on his point of view: "This is simply absurd! I have never seen a big company spend money on a small platform that I have never heard of for free promotion. You are trying to push Jane Eyre to the extreme.Are you on the way? Do you want to lower your value and destroy the word of mouth you have accumulated so hard in the past few years?"

    Word of mouth?Huo Qingzhi sneered in his heart, Jane Eyre's reputation had already been worn down by Huo Yuandong's three years of negative management.

    Huo Yuandong's anxious attitude undoubtedly pushed Huo Qingzhi to the forefront, and the atmosphere in the conference room became tense for a while, making the neutrals dare not take a breath.

    "At present, there is such a platform that allows Jane Eyre to have a chance to show, and there is enough sincerity to invite brands to settle in. After comprehensive consideration, I decided to cooperate with Pintao."

    Huo Qingzhi suppressed the embarrassment in his heart, and said calmly: "Since we want to reach a permanent cooperation with Pintao..."

    Before she finished her prepared words, Huo Yuandong interrupted her: "I will never agree with you to do this! Watson is the painstaking effort of my sister's hard work, and it must not be folded into your hands!"

    Huo Qingzhi's hand hanging by his side unconsciously tightened, his eyes were firmly locked on Huo Yuandong's face, and he suddenly smiled, with an inhuman coldness in his eyes, and said coolly: "Don't you think I'mDear daughter, do you want the company to go downhill more than others?"

    There is something in these words, anyone with a heart can see the undercurrent between uncle and nephew, which makes the atmosphere in the meeting room drop to freezing point.

    "I think everyone here is very clear that the popularity of Jane Eyre is no longer what it used to be. Even if she won the design competition champion before, it only appeared in the eyes of consumers for a short time. And now the number of brands on the market is too many to count. IfHow can we stand out from the crowd without trying to break the ice?"

    "What most consumers care about is not only quality, but also price. Instead of spending money on expensive celebrity endorsements, it is better to let consumers see real discounts. This is also a way to win favor."

    "Besides, as I said, sales are carried out in the form of "snap buying" and the sales volume is limited, so that there will be no price drop due to the flood of products."

    "Looking at the entire apparel industry at present, I'm sure no company has ever done this. The same marketing methods can no longer bring freshness to consumers."

    "Now, I will be the first person."

    The voice of opposition from the shareholders became stronger, but Huo Qingzhi's determination to cooperate was even stronger. These people in front of him were pedantic, ignorant, and not forward-looking, just like themselves before this.

    Her eyes became more determined, and she bent one finger against the table: "Our cooperation with Pintao is imperative. If you don't agree, then sit in my position." She said harshly, her attitude was very firm.

    "Now you are the boss of the company, of course you can decide who to cooperate with." A shareholder snorted coldly, "But in case your decision brings losses to the company, who is responsible? And how?"

    "To put it bluntly, our shareholders are not interested in how you play, we just want to see how much money we can share, but your current thinking is tantamount to moths jumping into the flames to kill yourself, we can't just watch our moneyIn vain thrown into the water."

    "Now you have such a game mentality because of your short-lived achievements in the design competition, and you have too much self-confidence. You have to be down-to-earth when doing business."

    "I said that I shouldn't have passed the vote at the beginning. I think the management company is still good at the old Huo! How could there be so many things about the old Huo management company!"

    These words again...

    "If there is any loss in this cooperation, I will bear it all."

    The words of taking responsibility did not stop the shareholders' mouths, Huo Yuandong said unhappily: "The company is not paying the bill if you bear it."

    "I will bear it personally. I will make up for the lost money myself, and I will personally apologize to all shareholders." Huo Qingzhi looked at Huo Yuandong, and said mockingly: "I will not lose any of the money that is due to you. You are satisfied."?"

    "Since my eldest niece has issued a military order, it would be unreasonable for my uncle to object any more." Huo Yuandong smiled emotionlessly and waved his hand: "Okay, then I will look forward to the result. Shareholders pleaseDon't be restless."

    The attack finally ended with Huo Qingzhi issuing a military order, and the shareholders left the conference room one after another until the last one left. Huo Qingzhi's straight back shook, and he slowly sat down on the edge of the table.

    She lowered her head and covered her forehead with her hands, thinking that the shareholders might have objections to this decision, but she didn't expect that the reaction would be so big that she couldn't stop the scene in the end, and half-forced to issue a military order.

    In the past, she would never have made such a persistent decision because the secretary was not sure, when she could not see the future development and her peers were not optimistic.

    They just want to make themselves a marionette, a puppet under their supervision who doesn't need to think about anything, and now she is like a retrograde alien in the crowd, and there is no turning back.

    "Song Yuran..." She called out that name softly, but she just called out unconsciously, not expecting anyone to respond at all.

    "I am here."

    Huo Qingzhi turned his head reflexively, the surprise on his face was obvious, Song Yuran came in at some point behind her, holding a cup of coffee in his hand.

    "Didn't you go to negotiate?!"

    "I'm back after talking." Song Yuran smiled, and she pulled a chair casually, sat down beside Huo Qingzhi, and handed her the coffee in her hand: "I bought you coffee, half sugar."

    Huo Qingzhi nodded, took the cup of coffee and just put it on the table, then asked: "How did the talk go?"

    "Of course I went smoothly." Song Yuran said, "Lei Hai said that he would communicate with the company, but I think his attitude is basically confirmed. It's just that he cares about the quality of the joint model, even if he agrees, he must firstSign the contract after seeing our designs."

    "I understand." Huo Qingzhi thought for a while, "Su Yiqiao will be on duty soon, so let her be responsible for the design."

    "Hmm..." Song Yuran hesitated a little, and quickly said, "About the joint design, can I participate?"

    After a pause, he added: "Uh, it's not that I don't believe in Su Yiqiao's ability, so..." I scratched the side of my face unconsciously with my index finger, and my face became a little embarrassed: "I also want to contribute,Although I can't help you..."

    Huo Qingzhi suddenly held her hand, "You have helped me a lot."

    Leaning forward slightly, with his forehead against hers, "Thank you."

    This kind of closeness is very similar to the behavior of animals and their companions to absorb each other's warmth.

    "..." Song Yu was stunned for a moment, and the hand that was held unconsciously tightened.

    For a moment, she seemed to be able to see through the other person's fragility at the moment. Facing Huo Qingzhi like this, she thought that she could probably give anything.

    Almost without thinking, after realizing it, the other hand had already touched the top of Huo Qingzhi's head, she paused, and gently rubbed the top of her hair casually.

    Huo Qingzhi touched her head every time before.

    "Luden asked, how should we arrange the booth for the autumn exhibition that we promised earlier?"

    "No." Huo Qingzhi shook his head, "Just decline."

    "Why? They seem to be very sincere. I also know that many foreign trade companies will go to the exhibition. If they can negotiate, it will be a lot of money. Besides, booths are hard to find.Now they are willing to provide it to us for free, isn’t it just a bargain?”

    Song Yuran didn't understand. With Luden's popularity, if Jane Eyre could be with Luden's booth, it would obviously bring a lot of popularity. The most important thing was that it would be free.

    Huo Qingzhi glanced at her, slowly straightened up, and leaned back into the office chair, "Then have you ever thought about why they are willing to provide us with a free booth for such a large group?"

    Song Yuran didn't think too much, and took it for granted, "Isn't it because you cheated us twice before, and your conscience is hard to rest, so you give us compensation?"

    "This is only a small part of the reason. Don't forget that Luden holds our shares. Although the proportion of shares is relatively small, it can also be regarded as a shareholder."

    Seeing Song Yuran's blank face, Huo Qingzhi had no choice but to give further guidance: "Lu Deng intends to acquire some small and medium-sized enterprises in the industry, and he has already started to act."

    "Fuck, old Bidden wouldn't want to buy us!" Song Yu was instantly filled with righteous indignation, and Luden Group fell back to the affectionate nickname of "Old Bidden".

    "I don't know yet." Huo Qingzhi paused, "The topic turns back to the autumn exhibition. It seems that Luden gave us compensation, but the value of the booth is heavier than this. Accepting this benefit means that we oweIt's very difficult to get rid of the relationship in the future."

    "From another perspective, if we agree, with the existence of shares and people who are interested in using this to make a wave of hype, we may become Luden's appendages."

    Huo Qingzhi's eyes fell on the capitalized crystal letters on the background wall of the conference room, and the word "Watson" was burned into her eyes, and she said firmly, "I want them to have names."

    Song Yuran gradually became clear about Huo Qingzhi's situation. None of the fellow entrepreneurs he knew could keep up with him, and there were a bunch of pig teammates in the company, and there were wolves, tigers and leopards outside the company who might pounce on him at any time.

    "Then don't play with them!" The little secretary waved his hand: "He will force him to be strong, and I will be a sister!"

    After she finished speaking, she saw the real first sister staring at her, with an incomprehensible smile on her lips, and immediately realized that she had lost her temper, and hurriedly changed her words: "Oh no, Mr. Huo is the first sister!"

    "I'll talk about 1 and 1 later."

    "..." For some reason, Song Yuran suddenly felt a chill down his spine.

    The author has something to say:

    Song Yuran's "firm face": I want to be a sister (noun)!

    Huo Qingzhi's "suspicious face": Sister 1 (verb)?you?

    Thanks to the little angel who cast the landmine: Wutong, I just fill in a name, Xiaobing, milk 1;

    Thanks to the little angels who irrigate the nutrient solution: 5 bottles of Junluo; shallow well pilgrimage,....

    Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
