Chapter 197 Disguise
Evening.
Beneath the Tianlai Building in Qingzhou City's CBD financial center, crowds surged.
This Tianlai Building was a renowned commercial complex, housing the headquarters of many companies.
At this moment, a pair of young and beautiful women, with their hair down and swaying their hips, walked towards the Tianlai Building.
The Tianlai Building had a security check, but the security was lax. With so many companies and such a mix of people, strict security was impossible.
The two women entered smoothly and took the elevator directly to the fifteenth floor.
The fifteenth floor of the Tianlai Building was entirely occupied by the "Yang Yang Yang" brand design company.
Five offices were designated as private areas, serving as the company's workspace. The rest was the reception area, capable of hosting major clients from all over.
The "Yang Yang Yang" live-streaming company's promotional product, Palace Jade Muscle Powder, had become extremely popular. Consequently, many distributors were eager to negotiate with "Yang Yang Yang" for distribution rights.
Naturally, Liu Ran had no intention of relinquishing control, but many clients were placing orders for at least a thousand units at once. They were hesitant to order online and preferred face-to-face negotiations at the company headquarters.
This was precisely the purpose of establishing the client reception area.
Recently, the number of clients negotiating had been extremely high, with the minimum order being five hundred units. Many clients would purchase one or two thousand cosmetic products at a time, particularly the middle-aged and elderly users who distrusted online shopping and trusted what they saw with their own eyes more.
At present, in Liu Ran's office.
Lin Yueyu and Meng Qingxue were sitting on the sofa, discussing upcoming plans with Liu Ran.
Meng Qingxue felt a little bored and said, "Oh my! Have you two finished talking? If you're done, hurry up and give me a bottle of your cosmetic!"
"Look, look at my face, and my dark circles. I'm so anxious. Cousin, since you're the promotional spokesperson for the 'Yang Yang Yang' brand design company, you must have some privileges, right?"
"Can I get a better price if I get the goods from you? I need to buy a tube of Palace Jade Muscle Powder too. At this rate, I'll have freckles on my face in less than three days."
Meng Qingxue said this while picking up a mirror and looking at her face with distress.
Hearing Meng Qingxue say this, Liu Ran chuckled. She immediately stood up and retrieved a bottle of Palace Jade Muscle Powder from behind her desk.
Liu Ran said to Meng Qingxue, "Cousin! Don't be anxious. Your situation is very mild. It's likely due to too much staying up late. Don't be so diligent with your work usually. Women, after all, need more rest."
Upon hearing this, Meng Qingxue's eyes immediately welled up with tears. She quickly said, "Of course I know that. I don't want to be so diligent with my work, but last time, I inexplicably caught some 'Five S' wanted criminal, and it led to a lot of trouble."
"People keep coming to interview me, and superiors keep asking me questions, insisting on knowing how I killed him back then."
"Our boss Shen is also quite annoying, insisting I be a deputy captain. I have way too much to do. I'm swamped right now."
"Most importantly, I have to write work summaries, go around and publicize the details of my meritorious service, and apply for a special award. Sigh! There are too many troublesome matters. I don't even have time to play Honor of Kings these days."
Liu Ran's mouth dropped open upon hearing this. She hadn't expected Meng Qingxue to have such strong opinions about receiving an award!
Lin Yueyu, who was sitting on the sofa, let out a chuckle. She quickly said to Liu Ran, "Manager Liu, don't mind my cousin anymore. She's just too lazy and too much of a slacker. She just wants to muddle through life and play games all day."
"You say she's a constable but doesn't patrol properly or work diligently, spending all day hiding in KFC playing Honor of Kings with a bunch of elementary school kids. Can that be right?"
"Ten days ago, she earned an award, and look, she's only been working properly for a little over ten days, and she's already fed up."
Meng Qingxue glared at Lin Yueyu and said, "It's all your fault. If you hadn't stirred up this mess, would I have earned an award? If I hadn't earned an award, would I be so busy now?"
"Oh dear, will my dark circles ever disappear? Should I use your enhanced version of Palace Jade Muscle Powder?"
Liu Ran immediately shook her head and said, "No, no. This is really a minor issue for you. Just use our regular version for three consecutive days, and I guarantee you'll be radiant again."
Meng Qingxue nodded and said, "That's good, that's good. I swear, after these couple of busy days are over, I'll never meddle in other people's business again, and I'll never casually earn awards again. It's too difficult, truly too difficult. It's much better to just eat and wait for death as a slacker."
Chen Yang, sitting by the sofa, checked the time and muttered, "Are you guys done talking? It's already past nine in the evening. Shall we leave?"
Liu Ran immediately turned and glared at Chen Yang, saying, "Chen Yang, don't be in such a hurry! Miss Lin finally has time to visit me, and my cousin Meng Qingxue is here for the first time. What are you rushing for? I've ordered takeout, we'll eat together later."
As Liu Ran finished speaking, a knock sounded on the office door.
Then, two tall women with exaggeratedly sexy figures walked in.
These two women were indeed tall, probably almost 1.8 meters. After they entered, their eyes quickly scanned the four people in the office. Then, one of the women smiled and asked, "Excuse me, who is Liu Ran, Manager Liu?"
Liu Ran was a little surprised, as regular clients didn't usually enter her office.
Liu Ran nodded and said, "Hello, I am Liu Ran. May I ask what you're here for?"
The woman immediately said with a charming laugh, "Oh my! I didn't expect Manager Liu to be so young and beautiful!"
"It's like this, we are representatives from the Chanel Group and would like to discuss a collaboration with Manager Liu regarding the Palace Jade Muscle Powder cosmetics."
"We know that Palace Jade Muscle Powder cosmetics are very popular in your China recently. We two have been entrusted by the Chanel Group to discuss whether this cosmetic can be promoted worldwide."
"You provide the formula, and we'll handle the production and sales. We'll give you a larger share of the profits."
"In short, we guarantee you at least a profit dividend of one hundred billion yuan annually. Oh, right, one hundred billion US dollars! How about it, Manager Liu, isn't this collaboration very sincere for you?"
Hearing this, Liu Ran was stunned for a moment, struggling to process it.
Her career had just begun, and she had suddenly earned two or three hundred million. Now, people were coming to her door proposing collaboration.
Moreover, a guarantee of at least one hundred billion US dollars annually, which translated to seventy to eighty billion yuan.
With so much money, would she become the wealthiest and most beautiful woman in Qingzhou City within a year? Was making money this easy?
Liu Ran stood there in a daze, while Chen Yang had already stood up and moved to Liu Ran's side. He scanned the two women with his eyes, not saying much, but a cold smile appeared in his heart.
Although these two were dressed like women and their accents and tones were very similar to those of mixed-race models, Chen Yang could tell at a glance that these were clearly men in disguise, and likely foreign men at that.
