Chapter 738: Problem Solved
“You don’t know? Really?” Yang Ming looked at Sun Jie doubtfully after listening to it, but seeing Sun Jie it didn’t look like she was lying.
“Why would I lie to you? I really don’t know.” Sun Jie smiled lightly.
“The person who sent the flowers is also really smart – sending the flowers without a name. These flowers are wasted. Why don’t you take these flowers as my gift?” Yang Ming said shamelessly.
“Who said it was without a name? I just didn’t look at it and asked the secretary to throw the card away,” said Sun Jie.
Yang Ming clicked his tongue twice and said, “This person is really unlucky. These flowers are wasted. But then again, if the flowers were sent by me, you wouldn’t notice my name either?”
“Why don’t I believe that you’re so kind? Would you remember me when you have nothing to ask for? Okay, Yang Ming, stop beating around the bush. Just say it if you need something.” Sun Jie stood up and shrugged away Yang Ming’s hands on her chest unintentionally, and sat on the sofa next to her.
“Ugh… How is your car?” Yang Ming was a bit embarrassed to have Sun Jie point this out. It was really a little inappropriate to state his business.
“It’s fixed. Not very serious.” Sun Jie glanced at Yang Ming and said, “When I saw the car, I thought you were not much better than the car.”
Sun Jie naturally didn’t really intend to blame Yang Ming. Of course, Yang Ming could hear it. Otherwise, Sun Jie wouldn’t mock Yang Ming when he mentioned this.
If it was someone else, never mind chasing him to fix the car, it would be nice if they did not ask him to buy a new one.
“Hehe…” Yang Ming smiled twice. “I ran fast, or I promise that I would be worse than the car.”
When Sun Jie saw Yang Ming bullsh*tting, she was somewhat furious. How could she not understand why Yang Ming came to see her? During this time, Sun Jie had been paying attention to those things done by Yang Ming’s company. She admitted that asking Shu Ya to be the spokesperson was a right move. It could quickly raise his company’s fame in a short time. But she was not sure how Yun Guangdou hired a ghostwriter to spread the provocative news.
It could be said that a person without much judgment would be easily confused by this news. What he said seemed to be reasonable. The news specifically grasped the psychology of the people and resonated with them. But in fact, people who understood the inside story would find that this person was purely stirring up trouble.
Why didn’t he target those expensive imported luxury goods? Why didn’t he worry about the fashion that cost tens of thousands of yuan? It was said that the clothes costing a hundred thousand yuan and the hundred yuan clothes in the street were very different in quality and materials, but the cost wouldn’t be that different.
So, obviously, this person had ulterior motives. Sun Jie had been in the business world for so many years. She would notice these small plots at a glance. When Yang Ming came to find her at this time, most probably it was related to this.
“I don’t have the energy to bullsh*t with you. I read all the articles on the Internet. What are you going to do?” Sun Jie pulled the topic back. Otherwise, who knows what Yang Ming would be talking about next?
“What can I do? The person who wrote the article was obviously stirring up trouble and confusing the public.” Yang Ming threw up his hands. He said helplessly, “The market is like this. Building up the market is actually building up the brand. The price of a commodity depends entirely on the value of the brand. This is understandable. How would I know that this guy turned me into a class enemy of the people?”
Sun Jie nodded. It seemed that Yang Ming hadn’t left it completely unconsidered, but his experience was too shallow. He could think of this step that was basically the key to the matter. Since he could think through the key issue, it was easy to solve.
Sun Jie took out a stack of Liu Weishan Jewelry’s recent brochures from the drawer with a large portrait of Shu Ya. Shu Ya opened one of the posters and pointed to the small line above, “You mentioned on top that all the jewelry were designed by internationally renowned designers. Is this true or hyped up?”
“Of course, it is true…” Yang Ming said, “There is no need to lie about such a thing.”
“The so-called internationally renowned designer, is he really famous, or is it just a few foreigners to simply fill the post?” Sun Jie continued to ask. Nowadays, many advertisements exaggerated their claims that their own products were designed by internationally renowned designers, but it was actually just a foreigner. He had no fame internationally. It can only fool people who didn’t know the truth. If it was debunked, the consequences would be very serious.
“Of course, it’s true… For example, this pair of ‘heart to heart’ couple’s necklaces was designed by Cicaro Berson (fictional).” Yang Ming pointed to a picture on the advertisement and explained.
“Cicaro Berson? Is that the person who designed many world jewelry brands?” Sun Jie was a little surprised. She didn’t expect Yang Ming’s company could invite such a master to design.
“En, it’s him.” Yang Ming smiled. “Would you like to look at the design book? It’s at the company. It has his signature.”
“That’s not necessary. You have no reason to lie to me.” Sun Jie naturally believed Yang Ming. They were discussing how to solve the company’s current crisis. If Yang Ming even deceived her, then there was no need for discussion.
“In this case, then this case will be easier. You find someone to give Cicaro Berson an exclusive interview to let him talk about the feelings of his design. As a result, those rumors will be solved.” Sun Jie thought about it and said, “Cicaro Berson had designed jewelry for world-class jewelry companies such as Tiffany & Co. and Damiani. Once this interview is broadcast, it will inevitably raise the status of Liu Weishan Jewelry which has jewelry designed by world-class designers. It’s normal for a difference between this jewelry and ordinary jewelry. No one will say anything more.”
“Yeah!” Yang Ming was enlightened. He had been thinking about this problem before. He wanted to express the value of Liu Weishan’s brand and products. He wanted to differentiate from Yun’s Jewelry and other second or third-rate jewelry companies. However, he didn’t know how to express it. If he held a press conference directly, it seemed that he was doing a little too much. If someone questions them, and they clarify and explain anxiously, then it would be self-defeating.
However, Sun Jie’s method was a wonderful move where he didn’t have to confront those questions. It was just an interview to explain the value of the brand of Liu Weishan Jewelry, so there was no need to explain anything. Those public opinions would naturally disappear.
Now, those who had doubts after reading the article mostly had such a feeling. The company was selling jewelry like others. Could it increase the price by a few times just because it looked for Shu Ya to endorse its products? In their eyes, Liu Weishan Jewelry and other the jewelry companies were on the same level, so they would have this idea. But Yang Ming believed that as long as the exclusive interview was broadcast, Liu Weishan Jewelry would rise to the standard of international brands.
“I understand how to do it. Thank you.” Yang Ming said this very pertinently. After all, Sun Jie had enlightened him, otherwise, he would certainly worry about these things.
“Thank me for what? Actually, it’s all your own thoughts. I just actually made your thoughts practical.” Sun Jie shook her head. “It is noon now. Let’s go to the dining hall downstairs to have a meal.”
The Huashang Building had forty-six floors, and there were nearly five hundred big and small companies. The companies that owned a floor like Sun Jie’s company, weren’t many. Most of them were small companies occupying by a few small rooms.
The dining of employees in the various companies in the building was a very important issue, so the Huashang Building simply built a cafeteria. It was open to the company staff in the building. However, it strictly controlled meal time.
If tens of thousands of people were crowded in the cafeteria at the same time, how could they all sit down? Then, from 11:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., the meal time was divided into several batches according to the floor where the company was located.
Sun Jie’s company was relatively large, so it was divided into a batch. When it was lunchtime, the people in the company put down whatever was in their hands and went downstairs to eat without anyone reminding them.
“Do you eat at the cafeteria with everyone every day?” asked Yang Ming.
“The same is true for the bosses of other companies.” Sun Jie said with a smile. “There aren’t fast food restaurants near here. There are office buildings, so if we don’t eat here, we really have nowhere else to eat. What’s more, the food in the cafeteria isn’t bad.”
“Hehe, Little Jie, does the company have a guest? Do you want me to open a private room for you?” Sister Liu, the cafeteria manager, came over and saw Sun Jie accompanying Yang Ming, so she asked. Sister Liu knew all the managers of the companies in the building. Sometimes when the company had a guest, Sister Liu would open a private room to serve them.
“No need. He is my friend. Just eating in the cafeteria will be fine.” Sun Jie said with a smile.
“That is great. If you need something, just call me, I’ll be inside.” Sister Liu didn’t say anything more. It was the work of Sister Liu who walked between these managers every day.
The food in the cafeteria wasn’t bad. At least Yang Ming felt it was better than the school meal, but the amount wasn’t enough. It’s no wonder that it was only five yuan. Now that prices were rising, people’s cafeterias were not charities.
Many young and strong male members of the staff bought two portions. Everyone didn’t talk, and they found a place to sit down and ate quickly. They had developed the habit. They knew that people were still waiting behind so they could understand each other.
When they finished the meal and went upstairs, Yang Ming suddenly thought of something and asked Sun Jie, “Have you heard of the Sui Family of Mount Jing?”
“Sui Family? Why? Don’t tell me that you have some hatred with the Sui Family, too?” asked Sun Jie.
