"You're short on cash, aren't you? Come to the company."
Su Yutong learned from her father that Su Fan was short on money again, which was why she specifically sought him out. To her surprise, he had vanished, his phone unreachable and his WeChat unanswered. His home was locked.
If her father hadn't assured her that Su Fan was fine, she would have already called the police.
"Huh? Isn't the company just starting to pick up now?"
Su Fan asked curiously.
Having learned from Su Dongsheng that the company was in a period of growth, Su Fan had abandoned the idea of borrowing money from Su Yutong. It was better to find his own way, even if it meant selling gemstones on the street.
"Yes, so the company is making money. Do you want to come to the company and see our best-selling new product?" Su Yutong's tone was full of confidence.
Su Fan was immediately curious. So, a new product had been launched? And it seemed to be selling well.
"Okay, I'll be right there."
Su Fan also wanted to see just how well the new product was selling to make Su Yutong so happy.
Upon arriving at Tongya Daily Chemical, the company employees were working diligently and were extremely busy. Su Fan's arrival went unnoticed by anyone.
"How is the advertising campaign going in the marketing department?"
Su Yutong, also busy, was questioning her secretary about the advertising placement.
"We've already contacted the television station. They've recommended a few spokespersons. Would you like to see them?"
Su Fan watched Su Yutong with great interest. The Su Yutong directing operations in the company was completely different from her usual self, exuding an aura of authority, strength, and confidence.
"Mm, I'll take a look later."
Su Yutong nodded. Just as she was about to leave, she noticed Su Fan watching her with keen interest.
"What are you looking at?"
Su Yutong pouted.
Su Fan's sudden disappearance for a few days had exhausted her. The company was so busy, and this scoundrel was nowhere to be seen.
Su Fan chuckled.
He suddenly realized that Su Yutong was a very endearing person. She was a strong and confident CEO at work and a sweet and mischievous girl next door at home.
"I'm admiring the heroic posture of my CEO directing operations," Su Fan said with a playful grin.
"Stop joking. I'm going to the television station now. Do you want to come? There are beautiful women there," Su Yutong winked playfully at Su Fan.
"Sure."
Su Fan had no reason to refuse. He had come looking for Su Yutong, so naturally, he would go wherever she went.
"Then let's go."
The two of them went downstairs and drove to the television station.
On the way, Su Yutong briefed Su Fan on the company's recent development.
"Our new product became a bestseller as soon as it was launched. Production can't keep up with sales now. You've made a lot of money recently."
The product had been fully developed in the laboratory, and its effects were even better than expected. Not only did it have scar-removing properties, but it also had beautifying effects, making it highly popular. Although Su Yutong priced it very high, it didn't stop it from becoming a sensation in the cosmetics industry.
"You're short on cash, aren't you? The company can spare quite a bit now. How much do you need?" Su Yutong, having learned from her father that Su Fan was in financial straits, was very concerned.
"No need. The company has just gotten on track. Keep it with you for now. If you have any spare funds, you can re-establish a pharmaceutical company. I still have quite a few potent elixirs. Have the laboratory analyze their ingredients and see if they can be produced. Even if they achieve one-tenth or one percent of the effect, they will crush similar drugs on the market."
Su Fan said to Su Yutong.
He had already decided when he arrived that he would not take money from the company. Money put into the company could generate more money. As for the money he needed, he would find a way himself.
"You have quite the ambition. The jewelry industry, the cosmetics industry, and now you want to venture into the medical field. Are you planning to establish the Su Fan Group?"
Su Yutong was surprised by Su Fan's ideas. Su Fan's progress was simply too rapid. He had gone from a junior employee to the head of two companies in less than half a year, which felt almost dreamlike to her.
"No, I just feel it would be a waste not to utilize these resources."
Su Fan's idea was simple: if he could bring so many miraculous items out of the game, wouldn't it be a waste not to use them?
Furthermore, producing those miraculous elixirs would be a boon to all humanity, and Su Fan saw no reason not to do it.
"Alright, give me the items another day. I'll have the laboratory start analyzing the ingredients," Su Yutong nodded.
"Are we going to advertise on television?"
Su Fan changed the subject and asked Su Yutong curiously.
"Yes, our product is selling very well, but it's only within a small circle and not widely known. Therefore, we must expand our sales reach, and advertising is the best way."
Su Yutong nodded.
"We're still only selecting spokespersons. It's still a long way from airing the advertisements," Su Yutong continued.
As they spoke, they arrived at Xincheng Television Station.
"Oh, Ms. Su, please have a seat, please have a seat!"
Liu Ruoxin, the director of the television station, warmly welcomed Su Yutong.
Tongya Daily Chemical was now outperforming its competitors in Xincheng with its new product, and its stock market value was soaring. It had long since emerged from its previous slump and was even qualified to be selected as one of Xincheng's top ten enterprises.
Could Liu Ruoxin not be enthusiastic about such a prominent boss?
Su Yutong smiled at Liu Ruoxin and sat down on the sofa opposite him.
Liu Ruoxin was a typical middle-aged man with a potbelly and thinning hair. His suit looked a bit tight on him.
Su Fan sat beside Su Yutong idly.
Liu Ruoxin frowned and glanced at Su Fan.
How could this secretary be so clueless, sitting on equal footing with their boss?
Liu Ruoxin mistook Su Fan for Su Yutong's male secretary.
"Ms. Su, we have a few potential spokespersons for you. Please take a look," Liu Ruoxin handed a document to Su Yutong.
It contained profiles of celebrities, including their height, weight, and representative works.
"These are all third-rate actors. I need top-tier, or even first-rate, stars. This doesn't meet my requirements, does it?"
Su Yutong frowned after reading it. She intended to open up the national market, and the fame of these individuals was completely insufficient for her needs.
"It's not that easy to find top-tier celebrities. They also consider the products. Your company is quite famous in Xincheng, but nationwide, it's still a small company. They don't find us worthy," Liu Ruoxin said helplessly. It wasn't that he couldn't find famous stars, but no one was willing to accept the offer.
"We need someone with nationwide recognition. Price is not an issue. Could you please contact them again?"
Su Yutong was not satisfied with any of these candidates; none of them met her psychological expectations.
"Is that so? Shall I contact them for you now?" Liu Ruoxin said, his brows furrowed.
"Yes, thank you for your trouble, Director," Su Yutong said apologetically.
Liu Ruoxin said nothing and turned to make a phone call elsewhere.
