Time flies, and another week has passed in the blink of an eye. It has been almost a month since I arrived in Hong Kong.
At this time, Gu Feichen was already planning his trip back to Sunshine City.
He will no longer be the director of the steel rolling mill. Instead, he will be transferred to a town below Sunshine City to be the mayor.
He had been resting for several months, which was considered a very long time for a workaholic like Gu Feichen.
Although the paperwork has not yet been issued notifying him to take office.
But he wanted to go to Sunshine City in advance to wait for the paperwork to come out.
And before officially taking office, he was also planning to go to the town to visit secretly.
And Zuo Li didn't expect that the month since arriving in Hong Kong would be much more peaceful than she imagined.
There are no people who come looking for trouble.
Zuo Li was ready to fight a little monster.
But she didn't expect those little monsters to sink into the sand without jumping in front of her.
That's right, just because you haven't jumped over, doesn't mean you haven't jumped over.
In the front, Gu Feichen, Gu Feibai, and even Gu Beibei have solved many people.
But the reason why Zuo Li didn't meet her was probably because she rarely stayed at home.
Instead, I go out for a run every day.
Because of what happened before, he is still angry with Zhao Tangyu.
But Fan Yingman became the bridge of communication between the two.
Within this month, except for the previous few days,
Zuo Li then published two more Xingang City magazines and seven newspapers.
Newspapers can now also do daily hairstyles.
Xingang City Magazine, using the money earned from three issues of Xingang City Magazine, can fully support the independent operation of Xingang City Daily.
There is no need for Zuoli to invest any more funds.
Even if Zuo Li thought about it, there would be a lot of surplus.
However, Zuo Li was not short of money at all. When he originally ran this newspaper and magazine, he never thought of making money from it.
Therefore, she did not use the funds from the magazine, but planned to invest all of these funds into the magazine for at least half a year.
We must make this magazine bigger and stronger.
If there are sufficient funds later, Zuo Li will also consider acquiring other newspapers and magazines to form a strong enough self-publicity channel.
According to Zuo Li, this channel serves her brand "soulmate".
If he makes enough money in the future, Zuo Li will still invest it in brand building.
Zuo Li doesn't ask how much money the magazine will make. She just hopes to get her brand name out there in a short period of time.
During this time, with Zhao Tangyu's help, they had also found a new garment factory.
And five styles of clothes have been designed.
We are also preparing to start advertising in the fourth issue of Xingang City Magazine and the following Xingang City Daily.
In addition to his own publicity channels, Zuoli is also prepared to spend money on advertising through other channels, and the money spent is naturally the money earned by the magazine.
In modern times, the best-selling of a certain mobile phone fully proves the benefits brought by the advertising effect.
I want to advertise, which is not difficult for Zuo Li.
Because there is a local snake like Zhao Tangyu.
With him around, their magazine didn't encounter any trouble.
And the clothing in the brand, from finding factories to finishing with high quality, the operation is extremely smooth.
Of course, apart from Zhao Tangyu, open channels for them.
Zuo Li himself is also quite busy during this time.
Every day I have to visit factories, magazines, and even squat on the street to pay attention to the clothes of passers-by.
You also have to pretend to be a customer and go to large and small clothing stores to sell and test which clothes sell best.
In short, during the more than a month since she came to Hong Kong, she has devoted most of her time to the construction of the "soulmate" brand.
And it can be expected that she will still remain busy during the period before leaving the port city.
It will even be busier,
If the clothes sell well, he will then prepare to design, manufacture and put other products on the market.
Other products refer to various aspects of clothing such as shoes, pants, hats, etc.
And if the clothes don't sell well, she has to consider the next development direction of soulmatet.
However, no matter whether the clothes are popular or not, Zuo Li is not ready to be involved in every industry at first.
She was ready to devote herself completely to dressing in the early stage.
After stabilizing the clothing aspect and gaining a certain market share, we can then move on to bags, beauty products, and daily necessities.
This road must be walked step by step. If you go too fast, you will easily collapse.
And even if the clothes sell well, Zuoli is not prepared to invest too much money in the early stage.
This in itself is just one path she tried, not everything.
Even if he failed, it would just be an extra experience for Zuo Li.
Probably because of Gu Feichen's guarantee, Zuo Li never worried that he would fail.
And this indomitable determination made Zuo Li invincible.
At least before the clothes were put on the market, all her ideas were completed extremely smoothly.
I didn’t encounter anyone in the garment factory who was telling me what to do.
Gu Feichen fully supports her dedication to work.
Although occasionally between bed, Gu Feichen would complain that he spent less time with her.
But it never stops her from pursuing these.
Because Gu Feichen probably knew that the reason why Zuo Li worked so hard was entirely to become someone worthy of him.
Even though Gu Feichen never cared about anything, whether he was worthy or not.
But he respects Zuo Li's ideas and will protect her.
And in Zuo Lide's work, he will not interfere too much.
He would just tell Zuo Li when Zuo Li was tired that he didn't have to worry about failure as he was still there.
And every time he does this, it can relieve Zuo Li's negative emotions.
Sure enough, behind every successful woman, there is a perfect man.
Even the clothes designed by Zuo Li are definitely styles that will make most people’s eyes shine.
But she will still feel uneasy before the clothes are officially put on the market.
After all, the market is always the most unpredictable. Everyone can study the market and develop products that the market loves.
However, the market is like a day in June. Maybe it will completely change because of a small factor.
Therefore, no one in business dares to bet that he will never fail.
Even those top designers may have designed some amazing products that do not meet the market positioning.
Zuo Li has always been modest and feels that she is a newcomer in this industry.
Even if she has studied with Professor Liu for a long time, even if she has mastered the fashion trends of the next sixty years,
She is not arrogant and feels that she will never fail.
"Boss Zuo, aren't you going to give me face? You don't even want to drink a glass of wine."
The lights in the hotel lobby were bright, and men and women in colorful dresses were meeting and chatting together in twos and threes.
Someone is playing piano music on the middle stage, melodious piano music, coupled with a few couples of men and women dancing slowly in the middle of the stage hall, there is a kind of luxury that belongs to the upper class.
Zuo Li came back to his senses and saw the man in front of him looking at him with a smile on his face.
It's just that smile, no matter how you look at it, you feel that there is malice in it.
This man's name is Xu Yi, and he is the leader of the Xu family, one of the eight aristocratic families.
His family roughly monopolizes department stores and most of the physical clothing stores in Hong Kong City, and is one of the big names in the real estate industry.
Zuo Li wanted to sell her clothes in these places, so she naturally had to get through to Xu Yi.
As a result, Zuo Li seemed to have used up all her good luck before, and now she encountered her first disaster.
I actually forgot to inquire about the relationship between this person and Zhao Tangyu before.
It was obvious from the look on the other side's face that the relationship between the two was not very good.
Xu Yi is two years older than Zhao Tangyu and is thirty-five this year.
However, the pampered men of this era.
Naturally, they don't look old.
The same goes for Xu Yi in front of him. He looks similar to a man in his twenties, and he still has the charm of an adult man.
Such a person would not directly embarrass Zuo Li, he would just keep toasting Zuo Li.
Zuo Li still had to drink. Now he had already downed three glasses of wine, and his mind was obviously dizzy.
If I continue to drink it, I'm afraid I will be embarrassed.
There is no danger. Zhao Tangyu's reputation is still very useful in Hong Kong City.
Now, most people present thought that Zhao Tangyu was behind her.
So I will never do anything else to her.
Even if the relationship between Xu Yihe and Zhao Tangyu was not harmonious, he would not use such destructive tactics.
You know, there are major associations standing behind Zhao Tangyu.
If you want to play dirty, no one can play against him.
But there will definitely be embarrassments,
But the most important thing is that Zuo Li is afraid. Even if she is embarrassed, she will not be able to achieve her goal in the end.
In that case, Xu Yibai would have been tortured a lot.
Zuo Li really didn't like dealing with such mature business elites.
Let's just say that at the banquet tonight, Zuo Li backed down after realizing Xu Yi's malice towards her.
It's a joke. You know that the other person may give you a hard time, but you still go ahead with it. That's really stupid.
As a result, before she could find a good reason, Xu Yi pestered her.
As a result, she couldn't leave.
She is now also the founder of soulmate.
But not as willful as before.
It was impossible for her to leave everything to Fan Yingman.
At least before she left Hong Kong City, there were some things she had to do herself.
Xu Yi obviously doesn't know Zuo Li's identity.
In other words, he didn't know that Guo Feichen was standing behind him.
She thought there was some invisible relationship between her and Zhao Tangyu.
The reason why she guessed what the other person was thinking was because Xu Yi still occasionally showed his contempt for her when he spoke.
Apart from her status as a woman, I probably thought she was using her body to gain power.
What else could Zuo Li say about this? He couldn't say anything.
The more you explain some things, the more the other person will think about it.
Zuo Li had no intention of explaining anything to Xu Yi.
I just feel frustrated.
The discord between Xu Yi and Zhao Tangyu caused Xu Yi to target her now.
Zuo Li would not find Zhao Tangyu troublesome because of this.
What a joke, it was only through Zhao Tangyu that she was able to get other things done so quickly.
You don't need to be so quick to remove the mill and kill the donkey, right?
Besides, Zuo Li is not an ungrateful person.
As for where Zhao Tangyu is now?
There are many cars in Hong Kong City, but they are not from the future after all.
In terms of traffic, even if it is a bit more congested than in the mainland, it is not too exaggerated.
This time, Zhao Tangyu was really stuck on the road.
The reason for being stuck on the road is not the traffic jam, but the sudden collapse of a section of the road leading here.
Then that area is a one-way street, and there is no way to drive and turn directly.
He could only get off the car and walk to another road, and let the car pick him up and bring him to the hotel.
Zhao Tangyu hadn't arrived yet, so naturally she had to deal with Xu Yi in front of her.
And Zuo Li couldn't rely on Zhao Tangyu for everything.
Now that you have become a founder, you have to support your facade.
Nor can we rely on Gu Feichen's reputation to drive away these monsters.
She has to rely on her own ability.
Not far away, Fan Yingman was also chatting and laughing with a middle-aged man.
Naturally, they were not just chatting, they were also talking about something serious at this time.
That person is also a big boss in the distribution channel.
Clothing must be put on the market and officially distributed, and naturally it must also undergo quality inspection.
And that person is one of the bosses of the quality inspection department.
Naturally, they didn't find this big boss just to get their products approved directly.
They are very confident about quality inspection.
But if the other party has malicious intentions, it can take up to half a year.
In half a year, this batch of clothes will be useless.
You know, what we are making now are all winter clothes.
In half a year, it depends on whether these clothes will be popular next winter.
It would be fatal to have so many goods backlogged and the flow of funds cut off.
So they found this boss because they wanted him to do a quick quality inspection.
Just save those steps that can be saved.
Use the fastest speed to make their clothing appear on the market.
But Fan Yingman should be a lot more relaxed than she was. After all, the boss's wife and daughter are both Fan Yingman's fans.
He should be able to speak easily.
But her situation was not very good, and Xu Yi wanted to make things difficult for her.
Zuo Li suddenly said: "I heard that Mr. Xu has an older brother."
When Xu Yi heard Zuo Li say such words, his face sank slightly.
But he quickly smiled and said: "Ms. Zuo seems to know a lot. I wonder if Mr. Zhao told you."
"Mr. Xu, I'm afraid my relationship with Mr. Zhao is not as close as Mr. Xu thinks."
"Oh, really? I'd like to hear the details."
Although Xu Yi said he was willing to hear the details, his eyes clearly showed disbelief.
Zuo Li was also a little angry. These men are used to judging people by their appearance.
It's not a girl's fault that she is beautiful.
Could it be that she had to rely on her beauty to get to the top?
Even if you feel angry, business matters are of course more important at this time.
Mr. Xu will always know these things in the future.
"I heard that Mr. Xu and Brother Ling are fighting for power in some aspects. If I tell you, the clothes I have will definitely sell well.
This has caused the sales of the shopping mall under Mr. Xu's name to increase dramatically, and I don't know if it will be helpful to Mr. Xu."
Xu Yi snorted coldly,
This increase in sales is naturally helpful.
Isn’t this what their Xu family relies on?
But why did he have to believe Zuo Li?
It seems now that he doesn't know the styles of the clothes Zuo Li designs now.
He just never believed that someone thought their clothes could sell well before they were put on the market.
"Of course, blind confidence is also a kind of self-confidence. I admire Ms. Zuo very much. So, Ms. Zuo, would you like to have another drink?"
He still wanted to get Zuo Li drunk and then embarrass her.
Zuo Li did not continue to be angry, but said calmly: "What if I am willing to sign a betting agreement."
One sentence made Xu Yi's face condense slightly.
Naturally, he also cares about things in the business world.
At this time, he was really shocked when he heard that Zuo Li was willing to sign a gambling agreement.
Because then, anyway?
He will never suffer any loss.
"Ms. Zuo, I'm afraid this is just a shopping mall, so I don't know what the gambling agreement represents.
If Ms. Zuo loses, she may get nothing and lose a lot of money."
He felt that the woman in front of him was too confident.
"Of course I know this, but I believe in my abilities. I just don't know if Mr. Xu believes it."
