Chapter 139: Jiang’s family is about to make a big move!

Tian Ye tilted his head, noticing the somewhat sympathetic look Feng Jian was giving him from the side, and felt three black lines falling over his head.

How many days had it been since his last visit?

Had Grandpa’s affections shifted so quickly?

He had always hoped that Grandpa would shift his focus onto other matters and not pay so much attention to him.

But now that the day had come, and the person in question was Xia Ye, Tian Ye felt...

Is this what they call... a "green-eyed monster"?

**

Monday is the peak day for meetings in various enterprises.

Jiang Jewelry was no exception.

The main topic of today’s senior management meeting was the summer new product release of Jiang Jewelry.

Chief designer Evan presented the concept designs and selling points of the ten new products that their team had worked on for months and finally settled on as a PowerPoint presentation projected on the large screen.

Having worked at Jiang Jewelry for over a decade, Evan was now a leading designer in the jewelry industry both domestically and internationally, garnering numerous awards and respect from his peers. Yet even so, he always felt a touch of nervousness when presenting in front of the CEO.

All the more because their concept this time was innovative, unlike their previous work.

For this summer’s new product launch, Evan and his team decided to break away from the traditional image that comes to mind when thinking of jewelry—a world of wealth and nobility, of clinking glasses and fortune, a glittering atmosphere of affluent elegance.

The current consumer base is becoming increasingly younger, and undoubtedly, young people will be the mainstream market of the future.

Therefore, the ten new products they designed this time pay more attention to the sense of line and a tech-savvy aesthetic for the emerging generation.

Unconventional and bold, with a gender-neutral style, they can be worn by both men and women.

As the PowerPoint came to an end, Evan noticed that several of the veteran members of Jiang’s management had varying expressions, discussing their innovative concept with differing opinions.

Evan nervously looked at the CEO, sitting in a dignified manner at the head of the conference table, and licked his dry lips.

Jiang Xuan looked at the new product introduction materials in his hand expressionlessly, silent for a long moment.

He didn’t speak, and none of the other veterans dared to, as they couldn’t tell whether their CEO liked or disliked the plan.

After the PowerPoint presentation concluded, the lights in the meeting room brightened once again.

"This creative concept for the new products..." Jiang Xuan’s inscrutable handsome face slowly formed a faint smile, "I think it’s good. What do all of you think?"

Evan let out a big sigh of relief, and to say it felt like a reprieve from death was not an exaggeration.

Seeing that the CEO appreciated the plan, the other executives quickly unified their opinions. Those who had felt that this kind of innovation was too risky, suddenly changed their tune, becoming more astute than anyone else.

Shen Jing placed freshly brewed coffee in front of the CEO, "CEO, you are truly wise. No wonder you didn’t agree to an endorsement deal with the actress Jian Manman. This time our new products aim for trendy individuality and youthfulness, and the kind of pure jade image sold by Jian Manman really isn’t suitable. We should find some... celebrities with a fan base ratio of males to females that is nearly equal, whose image fits our new products more closely."

The executives nodded in agreement one after another.

With a stack of top stars’ information in his hand, Evan approached Jiang Xuan, "CEO, actually, I’ve already found a few artists who are very suitable in terms of image. Many of them have even shown interest in competing to be our spokesperson this time, so the negotiation for the endorsement fee should go smoothly."

Jiang Xuan flipped through a few pages at random, seemingly uninterested.

Evan ventured, "CEO, how about I send someone to talk to them separately first, to see what terms can be negotiated, and then you can decide?"

Jiang Xuan’s gaze deepened in thought for a moment, then he tossed the stack of information onto the table, "No need for now, I already have someone in mind for the spokesperson."

"You already have someone in mind? The CEO really does work efficiently."

"I wonder which company’s artist is so honored to be chosen by our CEO."

"When are we planning to formally sign the contract?"

Jiang Xuan’s fingers tapped slowly on the table, and he spoke with a rare hint of uncertainty, "I don’t know if she would be willing, and if not, you can choose anyone else from these candidates."

After leaving that statement, Jiang Xuan stood up, signaling the end of the meeting.

The executives remained seated, their faces filled with disbelief.

Was there actually someone who wouldn’t want to be the new spokesperson for Jiang Jewelry?

Evan’s eyes flickered as he tried to glean some inside information from Shen Jing, "Assistant Shen, do you know anything about this? Who exactly is Mr. Jiang interested in, someone so special?"

Was it Brad Pitt?

Or Angelina Jolie?

Shen Jing didn’t know either. Just last Friday, the President had said that the decision on the spokesperson could be made by the subordinates, suggesting he had no particular preference...

Two hours later, Xia Yuzheng’s male secretary, who was sent to gather information at Jiang Jewelry, returned.

Xia Yuzheng snuffed out his cigarette in the ashtray and gestured for the secretary to close the office door, "How did it go? Did you find out who Jiang Jewelry wants as their spokesperson?"

The male secretary closed the door carefully and pushed his glasses up before whispering to the chairman, "Chairman, it seems Jiang Jewelry... may be planning a big move this time!"

"Oh?" Xia Yuzheng became serious, "Let me hear it."

The male secretary said, "It’s been the talk of Jiang Jewelry. They’re rumored to be asking for a heavyweight figure, and even Mr. Jiang is unsure if he can get this person..."

Xia Yuzheng took a deep breath, regretting that he had extinguished his cigarette too early.

How big of a star must it be?!!

At dinner time, around the dining table, Xu He placed a chicken leg in Xia Ye’s bowl, "By the way, Little Tiangao, how is your friend with the cold doing?"

Xia Ye glanced up, "Ah, they’re better now. The soup you made was really delicious; they drank it all."

Wang Dahai had come up with the excuse that the sick person was a classmate of hers, and Xia Ye wasn’t aware.

Xu He didn’t realize that the ’he’ her daughter referred to was the one with the ’human radical’ next to it.

"They liked it that much? Then next time I’ll cook up a new dish. You must invite her over for a meal!"

Xia Ye touched her nose, feeling somewhat conservative about it, "Is that... appropriate?"

Xu He just laughed, "What’s inappropriate about it, child?"

"Alright then..." Just as Xia Ye agreed, her phone received a WeChat message.

It was from Uncle Jiang.

The sound of a car entering the yard could be heard, and Mrs. Wu went to open the door.

Xia Yuzheng came home from the company, still pondering the matter of Jiang Jewelry’s heavyweight star endorsement.

Xu He called her husband to come to eat, but Xia Yuzheng had little appetite and hesitated, "Never mind, you two go ahead and eat. I’ll be in the study for a while."

Xu He replied, "Alright then."

Turning back, she saw Little Tiangao staring blankly at a WeChat message, and she asked with concern, "What’s the matter? Is there some difficult problem?"

Xia Ye appeared troubled and, after two seconds, spoke up, "Someone approached me to be a spokesperson. Mom, do you think I should do it?"
