Free Web NovelChapter 1966: Chapter 653: It’s Just a Hot Spring!_3
What a joke!
In today’s financial circle of Yan Province, who doesn’t know about Rongliu Capital?!
It’s a giant entity holding billions of US Dollars, backed by Tang Jin and Kate Trust.
Most importantly, their only WFOE (Wholly Foreign-Owned Enterprise) in the mainland is located in Yan City.
Moreover, it’s said that they are about to reach a series of astonishing strategic investment intentions with the provincial and municipal governments.
As local financial practitioners, they naturally want to get involved and gain some benefits.
And this "Chairman’s Special Assistant" in front of them is undoubtedly someone who can influence these decisions.
During the pleasantries, Shen Yuyan wore a graceful smile, but her gaze unintentionally drifted towards Cai Zihe, who had long been pushed to the edge of the crowd, his face alternating between green and white.
Enjoying his current panic and helplessness, like a cat playing with a mouse.
Noticing Shen Yuyan’s gaze, and recalling how Cai Zihe had proactively greeted her before.
Zhao Ming smiled and asked, "Zihe, do you know President Shen?"
Snapped back to reality, Cai Zihe opened his mouth, but couldn’t utter a word.
A chill surged from his feet straight to his skull, making his whole body tingle.
He couldn’t understand how the founder of a small household service company, whom he had casually manipulated back then,
could suddenly transform into an executive at Rongliu Capital?!
Although Tengfu Investment Holding is considered a large investment firm locally, its tens of billions in RMB are insignificant compared to a "capital behemoth" like Rongliu Capital.
And he himself was merely mid-to-upper management at Tengfu.
Their positions had been reversed.
Her identity and status now far surpassed his.
As long as she was willing to use a bit of her connections, it would be enough to make it impossible for him to survive in this circle.
The people around weren’t fools either.
Just by looking at his expression, they could roughly guess the situation.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the VIP lounge became subtly tense.
Zhao Ming’s smile grew stiff, his gaze flickering between the two.
Shen Yuyan still had a fresh and sweet smile on her face: "We do know each other. Back when I was starting out, I was fortunate enough to interact with Mr. Cai several times. To be honest, Mr. Cai taught me a lot."
She paused, her gaze shifting to Cai Zihe, who was already soaked in cold sweat, and said sincerely, "At that time, Director Cai told me that grassroots entrepreneurs like us, without backgrounds, needed to show a bit of ’special sincerity’ to get investment from top institutions like Tengfu Investment. Honestly, I didn’t quite understand the deeper meaning then, but I gradually understood later."
As her words fell, the atmosphere in the hall stiffened a bit.
Everyone present was perceptive, and they all caught the undertone in her words.
Ordinarily, in such settings, even if there were grudges, they wouldn’t be exposed face-to-face.
Moreover, by doing this, Cai Zihe’s reputation in the circle would be ruined, and word would spread quickly.
But at this moment, Shen Yuyan represented Rongliu Capital. She indeed had the qualification and the confidence to do so.
Zhao Ming’s smile grew tense as he glanced at Cai Zihe, "President Shen, is there a misunderstanding here..."
"Hmm, I was just expressing my thoughts upon seeing Mr. Cai. Chairman Zhao, don’t take it to heart; I didn’t mean anything else. After all, the investment circle is pressured, and Director Cai has his unique ’criteria.’ I understand that.
However... our Rongliu Capital might still place more importance on the value of the projects themselves. Perhaps, that’s the corporate culture difference between us and Tengfu Investment.
The luncheon is about to start, Chairman Zhao, I’ll take my leave and head inside first."
With that, Shen Yuyan elegantly turned away, walking towards the banquet hall amidst a star-studded crowd.
Before stepping out of the VIP lounge, she took a long breath.
All the grievances and humiliations had now transformed into a thrilling sense of revenge.
There was a bright and sharp gleam in her eyes.
This is the taste of power.
And this was just the beginning.
...
PM.
Cloud Stream Building, Songmei Clothing.
The entire floor was filled with an unprecedented vibrant atmosphere.
The sounds of chatter, phone calls, and keyboard tapping were nonstop; everyone seemed to be on a high.
"Little Red Book has already exploded; several fashion bloggers with millions of followers are digging into our windbreaker!"
"President Gao! On TikTok, I have urgently contacted several leading fashion review accounts; they are all willing to do a free feature on us."
"The customer service phone is almost blown up; the inbox is full of messages asking when the presale link will be available."
...
At noon, Su Yu’s personal Weibo account had personally forwarded the street snap photo set.
Catapulting the hashtag #SuYuSameStyleWindbreaker# unstoppably onto the trending lists across major platforms.
[HEIY-HEYI STUDIO], this brand-new brand, just a month old, entered mainstream fashion media’s sight with an almost savage posture.
Becoming the hottest "darling".
The entire company was revolving around this "sudden windfall," conducting a rapid marketing campaign.
The intense meetings and work liaison finally concluded.
Back at her workstation, Yao Lingling still felt like she was walking on air, her whole self a bit euphoric.
She picked up her phone to find a heap of WeChat messages, texts, and missed calls.
As the independent designer of this windbreaker.
She had naturally shared the birth process of her work on her social media platforms like her friends’ circle.
