Volume 5: Twenty Undoubted Chapter 331 Liang Shuang was deceived
On the podium, Zhao Changming was talking and laughing. Below the podium, looking at the slides he used for his speech, Luo Yan couldn't help but belittle him:
"This slide has no sense of design at all. Your aesthetics are not up to standard. How did my mother let you pass it?"
"Bad review, must give a bad review!"
Luo Yan muttered to herself as she watched Zhao Changming give his speech. She ticked the worst one-star rating on the feedback card placed on the table. Until the end of the speech, Luo Yan still couldn't feel the slightest favor towards Zhao Changming. At this time, the beautiful host returned to the podium and said with a smile:
"Okay, thank you again Mr. Zhao for sharing. I see that everyone is very active and enthusiastic. However, due to time constraints, we have reached the last question of the day. Come, let's see which student wants to ask a question?"
Just as the beautiful host on the podium was looking at the students below to see if anyone wanted to ask a question, a girl sitting next to Luo Yan looked at Luo Yan and said embarrassedly:
"Excuse me, please lend it to me. Thank you!"
"fine!"
Seeing that the girl wanted to leave, Luo Yan stood up to let her pass by her. At this moment, the beautiful host on the podium also looked over. Seeing Luo Yan standing there, she thought she wanted to ask Zhao Changming a question impatiently, so she smiled and said:
"I see a classmate has already stood up actively, shall we give the microphone to her?"
"Me?"
"Yes, it's you!"
Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Luo Yan, who had originally wanted to keep a low profile, was instantly confused. She took the microphone from the on-site staff and looked at Zhao Changming who was standing on the podium waiting for her to ask questions. Luo Yan stammered and asked:
"I want to ask, if your partner is a person with a very bad temper and a strong desire for control, what would you do?"
Seeing Luo Yan asking Zhao Changming about his personal privacy, the beautiful host smiled and stopped him:
"I'm sorry, classmate, privacy issues are not within the scope of this question. You can ask another question!"
"Then I have no other questions!"
Seeing that questions were not allowed, Luo Yan returned the microphone to the staff member next to her.
"Thanks!"
"You're welcome!"
Seeing Luo Yan sitting down again, Zhao Changming picked up the microphone and said with a smile without waiting for the beautiful host to find the next questioner:
"It doesn't matter, I can answer this question. Where there is shadow, there is light. If my partner has some shortcomings, then how charming are her strengths?
This sentence can also be understood as, the shadow in the eyes of others, that may be the light in my eyes. In the eyes of others, my partner has a bad temper and a strong desire for control, but in my eyes, that may be passion, because she loves me. In short, if she is my partner, then I will accept all of her. Classmate, are you satisfied with my answer?"
"satisfy!"
She smiled and felt that Zhao Changming's answer was very satisfactory. Her mother was such a person with a bad temper and a strong desire for control. I think this is also the reason why she can fall in love with Zhao Changming. Looking at the one-star rating on the feedback form, after hesitating for a while, Luo Yan checked the remaining four stars and gave Zhao Changming a five-star rating. At the same time, she sincerely wished her mother could find the happiness that belonged to her again.
"Okay, today's sharing and exchange meeting has come to a successful conclusion. Thank you again to our CEO Zhao and my senior brother. Finally, when you leave, don't forget to hand over the feedback card to the staff on site. Thank you everyone!"
Zhao Changming's sharing and exchange meeting finally ended with the sweet voice of the beautiful host. Luo Yan left the school auditorium with the people around her. When she walked outside the auditorium, it was pouring rain. Just when Luo Yan didn't know what to do, Yuan Xudong came over and smiled:
"The weather forecast said it would rain heavily today, why didn't you bring an umbrella?"
"Who in their right mind looks at the weather forecast?"
Seeing that it was Yuan Xudong, Luo Yan smiled and said:
"You also came to listen to Zhao Changming's speech. Are you his fan?"
"That's not the case. I came to listen to his speech for work!"
Smiling, Yuan Xudong opened his umbrella and said:
"Come on, I'll take you back?"
"OK!"
Hiding under Yuan Xudong's umbrella, and walking with him towards the girls' dormitory, Luo Yan asked curiously:
"Are you still doing business with Zhao Changming?"
"No, I'm just an ordinary college student. How can I have the ability to do business with famous entrepreneurs?"
Covering Luo Yan with the umbrella as much as possible, Yuan Xudong smiled and said:
"His Weishi Technology is about to go public. I want to learn more about him and his company. When Weishi Technology goes public, I'll see if there's any opportunity to make a profit from trading!"
"So that's how it is. I thought you were doing business with him!"
She glanced at Yuan Xudong and saw that he had raised his umbrella towards her. His clothes were soaked by the rain. Luo Yan quickly pushed the umbrella towards him and moved closer to the middle.
"Don't just focus on me, your clothes are all wet!"
"It's okay, I'll just go back and change into something else!"
As he spoke, Yuan Xudong moved the umbrella towards Luo Yan again. Seeing him like this, Luo Yan no longer insisted and just looked at him and smiled:
"Thank you, I will praise you to Xiaoguo!"
"Then thank you!"
"You're welcome!"
After a while of silence, Luo Yan walked in the rain, the cold wind and rain blowing towards her. She couldn't help but shiver. Seeing Yuan Xudong looking at her, she suddenly felt a little embarrassed, shrank her neck, blushed slightly and said:
"You, what do you think of Zhao Changming?"
"He, what can I say!"
After thinking for a while, Yuan Xudong felt that Luo Yan would know the truth sooner or later, so he told the truth:
"Take Zhao Changming for example. He is not only successful in his career, but also has a company that he founded that is about to go public. He also has a harmonious family and a good relationship with his wife. Everyone says they are a model couple. From poverty to wealth, from starting a business to becoming successful, they have supported each other and have come this far. They also have a son who will take the college entrance examination this year. I heard that his grades are very good, but..."
Seeing Luo Yan's pale face, Yuan Xudong couldn't help but ask with concern:
"Luo Yan, are you okay?"
"No, it's okay!"
After looking at Yuan Xudong, Luo Yan said in a panic:
"What did you just say?"
"Oh, some rumors, I don't know if they are true or not!"
Pretending not to notice Luo Yan's abnormality, Yuan Xudong continued:
"However, there is no smoke without fire, and this is exactly what I am worried about. There are rumors that the relationship between Zhao Changming and his wife is not as harmonious as the outside world says, and it is because of their son that there is no trouble. Some people say that Zhao Changming has another woman outside. If this is true, if someone reveals it, the company's stock price will definitely plummet, and it may even affect the listing. Of course, this matter may also be false, and it was fabricated out of thin air by Zhao Changming's competitors. So I am now hesitating whether to invest in Zhao Changming's Weishi Technology Company, or wait until it explodes before investing, spending less money to buy more shares!"
When he reached the entrance of the girls' dormitory, Yuan Xudong stopped and said with a smile:
"Okay, we're at the dormitory, go in!"
"Well, Yuan Xudong, thank you today!"
"It's okay, bye!"
"Bye-Bye!"
After watching Luo Yan walk into the girls' dormitory with a heavy heart, Yuan Xudong left alone holding an umbrella. In fact, everything has its pros and cons, and vice versa. After Weishi Technology Company started to go public, it suddenly broke out that the chairman Zhao Changming had been cheating on his wife for a long time. The company's stock price would definitely fall irrationally in a short period of time. Because it was listed in Hong Kong, Silverstone Company had channels to obtain more securities, whether it was short selling first or going long after the thunder broke out. The reason why Yuan Xudong hesitated was that he was thinking about whether to wait for things to ferment naturally or to reveal it to some stakeholders himself. At that time, naturally someone would add fuel to the flames and make this matter a hot news. The former has great uncertainty, but fortunately the matter has nothing to do with himself. The latter can determine the time when the news will be spread, but it requires collecting relevant evidence by himself and handing them over to some people, which is easy to leave some not-so-good traces.
Just when Yuan Xudong wanted to take a shortcut to make more money, Liang Shuang was explaining his two plans to Lilia in a coffee shop:
"In addition to the 12-hour makeup-free challenge, I had another idea that was inspired by my roommate. The starting point was who on earth needs this lipstick?"
"Go on!"
"good!"
Liang Shuang smiled and pointed to his own project slides on the laptop.
"The answer is, people who need to switch roles in a short period of time, so I want to make a very realistic video log. First, there is a loyal fan who pursues an idol. She wants to attract the idol's attention in a short period of time and show different sides of herself, such as sweet and cool. Another example is an intern who serves tea and water in the office and calls everyone brother and sister to show her cuteness, but when she goes out to discuss business, she must appear very professional. So how can she quickly switch roles?"
As she spoke, Liang Shuang picked up a jasmine lipstick from the side and smiled confidently:
"I just need this jasmine lipstick. You see, I've already thought of the slogan. Thickness or thinness as you like, cold or warm as you like, beautiful fantasy colors, easy to switch. So I've been wondering why this lipstick was unsalable before. It's because it didn't find the right target group. People who have the need to switch roles are its breakthrough point!"
Looking at the particularly confident and beautiful Liang Shuang, Lilya was slightly stunned. Seeing Lilya staring at her like this, Liang Shuang thought that there was something wrong with her new plan. She put down her lipstick and smiled awkwardly:
"Sister Xiaoya, this plan is quite novel, and no one has done it yet, but I am confident..."
"No one has done it yet, there must be a reason!"
Before Liang Shuang could finish her words, Lilia interrupted her and said:
"I think your solution has a narrow audience, and customers may not like it. Why not use the previous solution, which is the one you mentioned that challenges makeup to stay on for 12 hours. After eating, drinking, sweating, quarreling, and all kinds of things, the makeup still stays on. It can fully demonstrate the texture and durability of the lipstick. This is what customers want. What do you think?"
"ah?"
"I think..."
After a slight hesitation, although he didn't quite agree with Lilia's opinion, Liang Shuang felt a little insecure when he thought that the other party was a well-known lipstick queen and he was just an ordinary beauty blogger. This advertisement was also found by Lilia.
"That's right. I'll choose one of the options then. Thank you, Sister Xiaoya!"
"It's okay, we are friends, we share the happiness!"
Lilya smiled and looked at Liang Shuang with a slightly raised corner of her mouth.
"Just give me the plan, I'll help you pass it up!"
"Okay, thank you!"
"It's okay. You already call me Sister Xiaoya, why are you still being so polite to me?"
After rolling her eyes at Liang Shuang, Lilia picked up a box of beautifully packaged ginseng tea from the side and gave it to her, saying with a smile:
"This is a gift from my fans. I'm giving it to you. Don't refuse it!"
"Okay, I'll take it then!"
Seeing that Lilya was not only so polite to him, but also gave him ginseng tea, Liang Shuang couldn't help but said:
"Thank you, Sister Xiaoya. You are so kind!"
"Yeah?"
Looking at Liang Shuang who was very happy after receiving the gift, Lilia drank her coffee and said calmly:
"As long as you like it, I want to thank you too!"
"Thank me for what?"
"Thank you for being smart and coming up with such a good plan. I helped the client and they will definitely thank me like you!"
"Oh, I see!"
…
A week later, a cell phone rang in Liang Shuang's dormitory. Liang Shuang quickly answered the call and said:
"Hello, hello!"
"Hello, are you Miss Liang?"
"Yes, I'm Liang Shuang!"
"Hello, Ms. Liang. I'm the publicity director of Jasmine Lipstick. Others have already done the challenge of not removing makeup for 12 hours. We at Jasmine Lipstick want some newer plans!"
"Oh, actually I have another plan, would you like to take a look at it?"
"No need, we have already decided on other partners. Let's work together again if we have the chance. Bye!"
"Well, bye!"
After hanging up the phone, Liang Shuang sighed a little disappointedly. He was in a bad mood. He heard Duan Jiabao sitting there and eating snail noodles "slurp slurp". There was a smell in the dormitory. Liang Shuang couldn't help but said angrily:
"It stinks! Didn't I tell you not to eat snail noodles in the dormitory? Snail noodles have such a strong smell that it will get on other people's clothes!"
When Jiang Xiaoguo and Luo Yan were not in the dormitory, Liang Shuang would yell at him. Duan Jiabao could not help but retort to her:
"Your nail polish still stinks, and it's also poisonous?"
Unexpectedly, Duan Jiabao dared to talk back to him. Liang Shuang glared at her and said:
"My nail polish is only toxic, not smelly, but you know that the snail noodles you make are deadly? The weather is so hot now, it will take a few days for the smell to dissipate. Do you know what will happen if I..."
"Okay, okay, stop talking. I was wrong. I know I was wrong, okay?"
Seeing Liang Shuang sitting there and beginning to lecture him non-stop, Duan Jiabao immediately walked to the corridor outside the dormitory with the half-eaten snail noodles in his hand and said:
"I'm really scared of you. Can I eat in the corridor?"
"Go away, it stinks!"
Liang Shuang sprayed perfume everywhere in the dormitory and said:
"Remember to take a shower after you come back!"
"knew!"
After agreeing, Duan Jiabao walked with the snail noodles in his hand and muttered quietly:
"Manage, manage, manage. Why do you have to manage everything? It's so annoying!"
"Duan Jiabao, what are you mumbling about?"
"nothing!"
Carrying the snail noodles, Duan Jiabao walked to the stairwell outside the dormitory. He sat down on the steps behind him and slurped the snail noodles while chatting with Jiang Xiaoguo and Luo Yan on WeChat:
"Xiaoguo, Shitou, when will you come back?"
"It'll be a while. What's wrong?"
"I was really upset because of Liang Shuang's criticism. Her proposal was rejected, so she took it out on me!"
"Dabao, did Liang Shuang bully you?"
…
