510: Chapter 482: Endorsement 510: Chapter 482: Endorsement “Ah, forget it!
It’s peaceful being alone at home!
But this food…” Liu Hun lay down on the couch, surprised to find himself actually missing Shi Qing’er’s disastrous cooking.
“Ding ding ding…
ding ding ding…”
Liu Hun picked up the phone and saw it was Gao Yelan calling.
He immediately answered, “Director Gao, what’s up?”
“Agent Liu, we’ve settled on the advertising concept.
Could you come over and take a look?” Gao Yelan asked Liu Hun.
“Sure!” replied Liu Hun before hanging up the phone, not expecting Gao Yelan to be so efficient.
When Liu Hun arrived at Gao Yelan’s office, she had several advertising creative proposals ready.
Sitting down and reviewing them, Liu Hun thought they were passable, but none were dazzling enough to amaze him.
“Hmm…” After looking them over, Liu Hun chose the relatively better concept and said to Gao Yelan, “Let’s go with this one!”
“Okay!
Do you know when Miss Shi Qing’er can come for the shoot?” Gao Yelan asked Liu Hun, clearly eager to showcase her skills.
“Gurgle gurgle gurgle…
gurgle gurgle gurgle…” Before Liu Hun could respond, his empty stomach spoke up.
Gao Yelan burst into laughter, her smile blooming like a flower heralding spring, “Agent Liu, you haven’t eaten yet, have you?
I’ll make something for you.”
“Oh, you don’t have to…
gurgle gurgle…
well, okay then!” Liu Hun said with an embarrassed smile, accepting Gao Yelan’s offer.
Gao Yelan, frequently working overtime and even sleeping at the office, had her own private space where she could cook something.
Neither Gao Yelan nor Liu Hun had eaten yet, so they shared a simple Western meal and it was only during their conversation that Liu Hun learned that Gao Yelan had a Jewish father and a Chinese mother, who had passed away.
Gao Yelan had many half-siblings, and it was because of this that she became a sacrificial piece for family interests.
Upon arriving here, she decided to adopt her mother’s Chinese name.
After talking for a while, Liu Hun got a preliminary understanding of Gao Yelan.
After their meal, he called Shi Qing’er, who arrived in high spirits as if in a great mood, while her driver Zhao Yuhuan looked somewhat tired, making one wonder what they had been up to all day.
Gao Yelan and Lin Xiaoxiang, two women with incredible work capabilities, quickly finished shooting the ad.
Even Shi Qing’er, usually full of energy, was nearly exhausted.
After a couple of days’ rest, Liu Hun personally drove Shi Qing’er to the Taihua Jewelry headquarters.
“Qing’er, what have you been up to these past few days?
You didn’t rest after the ad shoot and went off somewhere – Yuhuan too,” Liu Hun asked Shi Qing’er.
Even though Zhao Yuhuan wasn’t with them, as Shi Qing’er’s driver, Liu Hun suspected they must have been together.
“I…
I went to see an old classmate!
Hehe!” Shi Qing’er chuckled, without giving a clear answer.
“An old classmate?!
What about Yuhuan?” Liu Hun pressed on.
“She…
As my driver, of course, she had to be with me.
My old classmate is such a huge beauty!
But!
I can’t introduce her to you!” Shi Qing’er playfully told Liu Hun.
Liu Hun couldn’t care less, completely disregarding Shi Qing’er’s words.
They reached the Taihua Jewelry Headquarters Building, and the receptionist led them to customer manager Huang Shen’s office and knocked on the door, announcing, “Manager Huang, your guests have arrived!”
Huang Shen, who was busy with paperwork, smiled and stood up to welcome Liu Hun and Shi Qing’er into his office, then instructed the receptionist, “Make two cups of coffee.”
“Please take a seat.
This must be Miss Shi Qing’er, right?
You are as beautiful as a Heavenly Immortal.
Hello!
I’m the customer manager, Huang Shen.” After exchanging courtesies, Huang Shen asked Liu Hun, “Agent Liu, did you bring the ad teaser?”
Liu Hun promptly handed the teaser to Huang Shen, saying, “Please take a look, Manager Huang, and see if it meets your satisfaction.”
“Great, please have a seat and wait for a moment,” Huang Shen said politely as he took the teaser and left.
“This manager is quite courteous, not like some arrogant people I’ve encountered elsewhere,” Shi Qing’er commented, and then started to babble on about the eccentrics she and Liu Hun had come across.
Liu Hun had already experienced Shi Qing’er’s talking prowess more than once and genuinely worried she might become a non-stop nattering old lady in the future.
After a while, Huang Shen came back in and said to the two people, “Agent Liu, Miss Shi, our general manager has some feedback.
Please, come with me.”
“Okay!” Liu Hun nodded and followed Huang Shen to the general manager’s office with Shi Qing’er.
“This is our general manager of Taihua Jewelry, Lin Kejin,” Huang Shen introduced to them.
After the introduction, he said to Lin Kejin, “General Manager Lin, I’ll leave you for now.”
Lin Kejin waved his hand to let Huang Shen leave, then finally turned to Liu Hun and Shi Qing’er and said, “Please, have a seat.”
Lin Kejin wasn’t tall, but he looked robust and energetic.
Yet, at this moment, he didn’t exhibit the pleased expression one would expect in a cooperative setting.
“Do you two…
watch TV?” Lin Kejin walked over and asked them.
Shi Qing’er and Liu Hun were both puzzled, not knowing why Lin Kejin would ask such a question.
“You two should watch the TV first before talking,” Lin Kejin didn’t allow Liu Hun and Shi Qing’er to respond before he turned on the television.
“Jinfengxiang Jewelry, beautify yourself with beauty itself, a woman’s choice, deserving of a lifetime!”
The advertisement on TV dumbfounded both Liu Hun and Shi Qing’er.
It was the very same advertising concept they had created for Taihua Jewelry; how could it have become an ad for Jinfengxiang Jewelry?
And…
“Qin Yan!
That’s…
Qin Yan!
Impossible!” Shi Qing’er gawked at her former college beauty classmate Qin Yan habituating the jewelry advertisement on the screen, stunned beyond belief.
“Who is Qin Yan?!” Liu Hun asked, clearly puzzled.
“Agent Liu!
Are you truly clueless or just playing dumb?!” Lin Kejin’s voice suddenly rose several pitches, “I’ve already investigated; this person is the spokesperson for Jinfengxiang and is also a newcomer heavily promoted by Xingle Group!
Even Shi Qing’er knows; how could you not?
Humph!
Many people and companies advised me against working with you, and now I see why!”
“Hey!
What are you getting mad at?
If we can’t cooperate, it’s as simple as that!
There’s no need for you to be so aggressive!” Shi Qing’er saw Lin Kejin raising his voice at Liu Hun and felt very uncomfortable.
“Just like that?
Humph!
The samples I gave you were meticulously designed by our company’s designers, the results of our hard work and effort.
We signed a confidentiality agreement, and now look at this!
Look!
Jinfengxiang’s products are our company’s latest designs!” Lin Kejin was so furious his lungs were about to burst.
He had thought he was taking a risk for a good return, but he hadn’t expected this outcome.
Since Liu Hun was the one who had signed the contract, he certainly knew about the confidentiality agreement.
Now, looking at the advertisement in front of him, nothing needed to be said; the leak was utterly thorough, “Qing’er, is this Qin Yan the old classmate you told me about?!”
“Yes!” Shi Qing’er nodded her head regretfully, knowing she had made a grave mistake this time.
“General Manager Lin, I will compensate your company according to the contract and will not renege.
I’m truly sorry for this incident, and I deeply apologize.” Liu Hun said as he stood up and bowed in apology to Lin Kejin.
Lin Kejin hadn’t expected Liu Hun to be so sincere and didn’t say much more.
After signing the compensation agreement, Liu Hun left the Taihua Jewelry Headquarters Building with Shi Qing’er.
“Let’s talk, what exactly happened?” Liu Hun only asked Shi Qing’er after they got into the car.
In an exceptionally low mood, Shi Qing’er recounted her recent experiences to Liu Hun.
It turned out that Qin Yan was also her college classmate.
After getting back in touch with Shi Qing’er, Qin Yan had wanted to learn singing from her and even offered to teach her dancing.
Shi Qing’er agreed, and as their interactions became more frequent, the trusting Shi Qing’er truly thought of Qin Yan as a friend and shared all her work frustrations with her, including this advertising endorsement.
Shi Qing’er wanted Qin Yan’s opinion, never expecting that Qin Yan was actually someone Xia Huai had arranged to get close to her.
“Let me lean on you…” Shi Qing’er, extremely fatigued, said to Liu Hun.
She felt exhausted, having offered genuine emotions only to be repaid with deception.
She was already hurt from Cheng Yuxuan’s betrayal, and now with Qin Yan’s involvement, she felt completely drained.
When the car stopped under the apartment building, Shi Qing’er had fallen asleep on Liu Hun’s shoulder.
Liu Hun gently carried Shi Qing’er upstairs, placed her in the bedroom, closed the door as he stepped out, and then addressed the anxious Lin Xiaoxiang, who had been eager to speak, “Don’t worry; I know everything.
Sit down.”
Lin Xiaoxiang paused, relieved to see Liu Hun’s calm demeanor, and said, “Gao Yelan has also received the news.”
“Yes, this mistake is ours to bear, and we still need to pay Gao Yelan; otherwise, it will be hard to manage her people.
What we need to do now is to try to downplay this incident as much as possible.
It mustn’t be blown out of proportion or become known to the media,” Liu Hun instructed Lin Xiaoxiang.
“Yes, I will try to arrange for the PR department to handle it.
But, what exactly happened?” Lin Xiaoxiang still didn’t understand the cause, so she asked Liu Hun.
Liu Hun explained the whole situation to Lin Xiaoxiang and then said, “Let Qing’er rest well, and don’t arrange anything for her for now.
You take some rest too.”
“Okay,” Lin Xiaoxiang could only nod her head, feeling that things might not be as simple as they seemed.
Indeed, everything wasn’t as easy as Liu Hun had thought.
The Taihua Jewelry leak was quickly exposed by the media, and Lin Xiaoxiang rushed to put out the fire, deploying all their PR resources, but they managed to suppress it for only two days.
