Chapter 226: Cooperate with Chanel? Hehe
"Oh, I\'m interested. What\'s the problem you\'re facing for a reputable fashion industry?" Ling Qingyu raised her brows.
"Your excellent figure, classy and cold temperament, and perfectly beautiful face." Xiao Xian pointed both of his hands, every time he mentioned Ling Qingyu\'s characteristics. "You\'re an absolute match to represent our Chanel products."
Ling Qingyu giggled and covered her mouth, because she didn\'t know what to say. She didn\'t think what Xiao Xian said was false, since she also admired herself in the mirror every day. As Miss System\'s handiwork, her beauty had already escaped the mortal realm.
"Why, thank you." Ling Qingyu pretended she didn\'t notice the recruitment as a form of polite refusal.
"Please don\'t refuse yet." Xiao Xian was unwilling to let go of Ling Qingyu. "We can discuss our cooperation between the two parties. I\'m sure, Chanel will give a satisfactory answer."
Ling Qingyu sighed and shook her head. "My focus leans more toward doing business and I found enjoyment, in watching and playing with numbers. I\'m sorry to refuse your offer."
Xiao Xian sighed in regret. He already expected such results but still attempted to persuade Ling Qingyu. "It\'s really a pity and a loss for our humans to not see our greatest damsel."
Ling Qingyu smiled in response. Are you kidding, she thought. Only a fool would accept the offer. Ling Qingyu had future plans to dive into the market and face similar industries like Chanel as opponents.
Why would she even upgrade her enemies? As for why Xiao Xian didn\'t see her company as a threat, Ling Qingyu\'s product hadn\'t reached the elite tier and focused on increasing sales to ordinary people.
Although Spirit Beauty & Clothing brand name had reached many ordinary families, compared to other venerable names, it still had shortcomings.
Chanel\'s intended customers were all wealthy and with qualified status. There was no clash at all in Xiao Xian\'s opinions.
But who could say for sure in the future? Ling Qingyu staged hidden plans, seeping slowly into every circle so that when she opened her hand, people realized it was too late.
"I thought our brand name cooperating with your company would let milady consider our offer. But based on the tone, refusal is certain." Xiao Xian shook his head.
Ling Qingyu raised her eyebrows. Xiao Xian was definitely sincere in the cooperation. Just borrowing the brand name could increase her company\'s sales by a large margin.
No sane businessperson would reject making more money. If Ling Qingyu didn\'t have any golden fingers, she might accept the offer. She didn\'t lose a dime except to show herself more to the public and faced a slight difficulty like those popular idols.
"Mr. Xiao Xian\'s generosity opens my eyes. I\'m a little convinced. Too bad, so many works have pressed me a lot recently, and I\'d have to say no." Ling Qingyu replied in a reluctant tone.
Xiao Xian\'s eyes brightened. He saw some possibility to cooperate and handed over his contact card. "It doesn\'t matter. If by any chance, you change your mind, you can contact me."
Ling Qingyu received the card and scanned it quickly and kept it inside her purse. "I\'ll consider your offer and hope fates didn\'t bring me too much work."
Xiao Xian chuckled at her jokes and exchanged information. Ling Qingyu changed her mind, considering the gains and losses after cooperation.
It didn\'t matter if the two parties fought against one another in the future after the contract expired. In business, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests.
Her principles remained firm when dealing with social impact and humanities. But in a business war, no restriction stood before her as long as her conscience wasn\'t impacted.
If the cooperation could earn more money and prestige she required currently very much, Ling Qingyu didn\'t brush away the possibility. So, she fixed her words, using an ambiguous strategy.
"In fact, I don\'t consider myself to work in front of the camera. My sister does." Ling Qingyu brought out Ling Yunxiang and introduced her. "She\'s an artist and I think she\'s more suitable."
Ling Yunxiang smiled stiffly and waved her hand in greeting. Heaven, even though she was an artist, her name meant nothing in front of a huge industry like Chanel. She even wanted to crack a hole inside Ling Qingyu\'s brain to see what her elder sister was planning.
Xiao Xian looked at Ling Yunxiang and immediately made a judgment. Definitely stunning but the impact wasn\'t what he desired. However, he heard a subtle subcontext in Ling Qingyu\'s words about her prerequisites.
He paused shortly as he made quick calculations. No matter the situation as long as Ling Qingu displayed her appearance, he gained benefits.
Before he was about to speak, his assistant whispered a few words. Xiao Xian creased his forehead and nodded in understanding.
Ling Qingyu, Xiao Yue and Tang Ziyi captured the message. It was none other than describing the horrendous deeds of her sister. Ling Qingyu curled her lips instead of anger as she itched to faceslap and feel the moment.
The time had come. It was her performance to shine like a protagonist. Too bad, things never went as she desired.
"Your sister\'s as dazzling as ever, as expected from your good genetics." Xiao Xian spoke. "Forgive my assistant\'s behavior; he\'s informing me of this lady to enlighten my blindness."
"It\'s alright, Mr. Xiao Xian. I already heard what your assistant said. Too much false repetitions can become a truth. I hope you can bear that in mind." Ling Qingyu replied.
The assistant\'s face whitened. Xiao Xian instantly said. "No, no. It\'s a misunderstanding. I don\'t have any precognition of your sister solely based on the gossips. As someone working in this circle for several years, my friend will laugh at me if I cannot differentiate and if I am easily swayed by the masses."
Xiao Xian quickly added: "It\'s obvious, someone is attacking her and I\'ll be guilty of adding more salts to the wound."
"Sometimes, a slight pain makes a good lesson to be remembered for a lifetime. But let\'s not forget, salt can cleanse wounds and prevent infection." Ling Qingyu smiled gently. "I\'m sure, my sister will gain a lot and become mature. What doesn\'t kill you makes you stronger, after all."
"Indeed, as expected of Miss Ling." Xiao Xian said. "Haha, I apologize for my subordinate\'s behavior."
"It\'s alright. Nevermind him; he\'s merely doing his job." Ling Qingyu said. "We\'ll talk about our cooperation if there is a chance. For now, please excuse me."
Ling Qingyu left and the girls followed. No one spoke throughout the entire time. They listened to how Ling Qingyu dealt with the situation.
Xiao Xian returned a smile and watched the group leave. After their figure disappeared from his sight, Xiao Xian removed the smile and grasped tightly on his assistant\'s shoulder and snarled at him. "What do you think you\'re doing? We\'re just exchanging words. You can remind me later after the event!"
The assistant wailed but controlled his mouth to prevent others from hearing. His superior seemed very girlish and had a weird personality but if the subordinates made mistakes they were in trouble.
