Chapter 452: Chapter 452: The Spokesperson Controversy

Zhao Xinlian began to feel worried.

Had her face really been ruined?

She could no longer sit still, quickly grabbed a mirror, and, looking at her reflection, was shocked.

Like everyone else present, she showed the astonishment of seeing a face carved from the same mold.

Zhao Xinlian couldn’t believe that after applying the Anti-aging Cream formulated by Chen Wei, she actually looked several years younger, her skin hydrated and lustrous, in stark contrast with the half of her face that didn’t receive the cream.

Zhao Xinlian truly couldn’t believe this was something that could be accomplished in fifteen minutes.

This was, to say the least, too miraculous, too outrageous!

"How about it? I didn’t lie to you, did I?" Chen Wei shrugged helplessly, finding it not so simple to get people to believe in him these days.

"How, how did you do it?" Zhao Xinlian looked at Chen Wei with disbelief in her eyes and asked.

"Even if I told you, you wouldn’t understand. Hurry up and arrange the tests. Although I think it’s unnecessary, we must follow the proper process to shorten the launch period as much as possible," Chen Wei instructed.

"Oh! Right! I’ll have someone do it immediately." Zhao Xinlian knew better than anyone that the Anti-aging Cream was the key to Zhao Corporation’s revival; without it, it absolutely couldn’t succeed.

She quickly organized a team to carry out various sensitivity tests on animals and, once it was confirmed that the animals had no issues, began recruiting volunteers. The effects were so good that they were almost unbelievable.

If they hadn’t seen Chen Wei use lab materials to concoct the Anti-aging Cream with their own eyes, the lab technicians would have certainly suspected Chen Wei of adding some prohibited ingredient to achieve such rapid enhancement of skin age.

But after some thought, they dismissed the idea, for a simple reason: such a substance didn’t exist in the world!

With this realization, their admiration for Chen Wei surged even more.

It made it all the more puzzling why someone as capable as Chen Wei would become a live-in son-in-law for the Zhao Family, meekly passing three years... It was completely incomprehensible.

Chen Wei was thus shrouded in an aura of mystery in their eyes.

...

Knock, knock, knock.

After knocking, Zhao Xinlian walked into Chen Wei’s office.

A few hours earlier, Zhao Xinlian had personally assigned an office to Chen Wei, which was arguably more upscale than her own.

After all, Chen Wei was currently Zhao Corporation’s savior, and for the company, Zhao Xinlian needed to cater to his needs with great care.

Lest the guy throw a tantrum and refuse to provide the Anti-aging Cream formula to Zhao Corporation.

"Regarding the formula and the experiments, both have reached the standards. We can start mass production and prepare for sales. Before that, the company has selected several potential spokespersons and would like your final opinion." With that, Zhao Xinlian placed a few documents in front of Chen Wei.

"Who are these people? I haven’t heard of any of them," Chen Wei said after looking them over, not recognizing anyone.

"The company’s finances are limited; we can’t afford big-name stars for now. Among these, I would recommend her; her fame is relatively big," she said.

"After the company resumes normal operations and we have sufficient funds, we can consider changing the spokesperson. What do you think?" Zhao Xinlian proposed.

"Fine, do as you say. As long as the product can go to market and sell quickly, it doesn’t really matter if we have a spokesperson or not," Chen Wei confidently stated.

Zhao Xinlian wasn’t unable to understand Chen Wei’s confidence.

Once the Anti-aging Cream hit the market, its potent effects would surely shock the entire cosmetics industry!

Word of mouth would spread from one to ten, ten to a hundred, a hundred to a thousand, a thousand to ten thousand... Customers’ spontaneous recommendations would become an incredibly terrifying source of traffic.

Afterward, Zhao Xinlian left to contact the manager of the female artist to further negotiate and sign the endorsement contract details.

As for Chen Wei?

Having formulated the Anti-aging Cream and provided the recipe, he had already contributed the greatest effort. Who would dare ask him to do anything else?

As a shareholder, he didn’t need to do anything at all, just wait for the dividends to come in.

...

The temperature of the sun was nice today, and Chen Wei lay on the office sofa, bathing in the warm sunlight, sleeping a very comfortable afternoon nap.

Thud thud thud.

It was the sound of knocking that broke the harmonious atmosphere.

"Come in." Chen Wei thought it would be Zhao Xinlian, but unexpectedly, it was someone else.

"What happened?" Seeing her in such a hurry, Chen Wei took the initiative to ask.

"President Chen, there’s been a problem at President Zhao’s end! You should hurry over and take a look."

"A problem!" Chen Wei stood up, "Lead the way."

"Alright!"

On the way, he found out that the woman’s mention of Zhao Xinlian having an issue referred to a female celebrity who, upon arrival, had demanded a higher signing fee, wanting more money. However, Zhao Xinlian greatly despised this behavior and disagreed.

Neither side would give in, resulting in a deadlock.

Chen Wei was not at all surprised by such occurrences; they were quite common.

Before even entering the room, he could hear the sound of an argument coming from behind the door.

"President Zhao, five million for one year’s endorsement for Zhao Corporation, I think that is a very fair price."

"My fan count has been rising quite rapidly lately, why sweat over that extra one or two hundred thousand?"

"Impossible! Three million, that was the agreed price from the start, it can’t change. Do you have any professional integrity?" Zhao Xinlian was very angry.

If she had known Lin Lanmei was such a woman, Zhao Xinlian would never have chosen her to be the endorser.

"Professional integrity?" Lin Lanmei laughed, "I’m just being realistic. If it really doesn’t work out, you can give me five percent of the sales profits, and I might reluctantly agree."

The word "reluctantly" was particularly grating to Chen Wei.

This woman clearly didn’t understand the immense value held within the Anti-aging Cream.

"Impossible! Miss Lin, if you insist on hiking up the price, then I don’t think there’s any need for us to continue this conversation. Please leave," Zhao Xinlian issued the eviction order.

"Are you sure? The impact of the companies I sign with is quite significant. Do you believe that I could make it so Zhao Corporation couldn’t sign a single endorser?" Lin Lanmei revealed a sly smile.

"Are you threatening me?" Zhao Xinlian asked.

"Just a reminder," Lin Lanmei answered.

"Is this the endorser you mentioned?" Chen Wei opened the door and walked in.

This guy is so handsome!

Lin Lanmei was mesmerized at first glance, and her surging anger instantly extinguished when she clearly saw Chen Wei’s face.

"Yes." Zhao Xinlian nodded in confirmation.

This embarrassing incident inevitably still came to Chen Wei’s attention.

She worried that Chen Wei would think she lacked judgment and competence.

"How could such an ugly woman be qualified to endorse our Anti-aging Cream? I have a better candidate in mind. As for you," Chen Wei’s gaze was icy as he looked at Lin Lanmei, "get as far away from here as possible!"
