Chapter 212: Retreat to Advance

Putting on a show not only requires connections but also costs a lot of money. The company had just been purchased, and the loan money could not be used to cover daily expenses, so they had to pay for it themselves.

Su Heyuan thought for a moment and decided to see the advertising effect first. Although Lu Jiaxin said that this skirt will be popular, he is not sure yet. But I didn't expect that at noon the next day, many people would call the company and ask where they could buy this skirt.

The advertisement included the company's phone number, and the company's front desk phone number was flooded with calls that day. Su Heyuan didn't expect that the photos in a gossip magazine would be so attractive. In fact, it is not gossip magazines that attract people, but beautiful things that everyone yearns for.

That night, Su Heyuan went back deliberately with a sad look on his face.

Seeing him like this, Mr. Su asked, "What's happened to you? You're so sad?"

Su Heyuan said: "Grandpa, the chief designer of our company has been very inspired recently and has designed many new styles. I have read all the design drafts and every one of them is beautiful. I want to hold a fashion show. But I have no money. I don’t have any connections in the fashion industry.”

Mr. Su said angrily: "The chief designer of your company has not shown up, and he is not famous. How can anyone come to the show?"

Su Heyuan showed him the magazine, pointed to the cover and said, "Grandpa, this dress was designed by our company's chief designer Green. Many people want to buy it. The factory is working overtime now to make it."

He chose an old customer and gave him priority as soon as the goods came out.

Mr. Su looked at the photo and asked, "This girl looks like Gu Xiuxiu. Is she the Lu Jiaxin you mentioned?"

Hearing this, Su Heyuan secretly said that although the old man was in his seventies, he had good eyes and a clear mind. He would have no problem living for another twenty years: "Yes, that's her. This photo is of her and Ms. Gu attending the 50th anniversary celebration of He's family. Taken."

Mr. Su asked doubtfully: "A friend of mine went to the He Group's anniversary celebration and said that Gu Xiuxiu did not attend."

Su Heyuan briefly explained what happened: "Grandpa, if you don't like Ms. Gu and Jiaxin, don't invite them. It's too disgraceful to invite them at home, and then humiliate them when they go there."

Mr. Su had always looked down upon He Zhuliang and said, "None of the three sons can take over. If my daughter is capable, I won't let her marry. Sooner or later, the He Group will change hands."

Many founders or descendants of listed companies in Hong Kong have been kicked out, and the He family will suffer the same fate if it continues. His children and grandchildren also failed to live up to expectations, and they resigned themselves to the fact that the company could not be listed on the market after so many years of operation, so they kept the money tightly in their hands. Fortunately, God was merciful and sent his great grandson here.

Su Heyuan realized that he had gone off topic and immediately brought the topic back to the fashion show: "Grandpa, do you think I should hold this fashion show?"

Mr. Su pointed to the cover of the magazine and said, "If all the new designs designed by this designer are of this level, they will definitely become popular."

Su Heyuan nodded and said: "I have read all the design drafts, and the quality is similar to this one."

Mr. Su was surprised: "Is everything you said true?"

"Grandpa, how dare I lie to you about such a big thing? I will show it to you when the sample comes out."

Mr. Su believed in his vision and said, "It's as good as you said. I'll sponsor you one million, and then I'll help you invite celebrities in the fashion industry."

Su Heyuan came here specifically to tell him about this, just to get him to contribute money and effort. When he was about to agree, Lu Jiaxin's words came to mind. She said that no one wants their children and grandchildren to always keep an eye on their money. The more his children and grandchildren think about him, the less they will give him money.

Thinking of this, he took out a pen from his pocket and wrote an IOU. Under Mr. Su's puzzled eyes, he explained: "Grandpa, these are your pension money. I can't ask for them anymore. I borrowed this million." Yes, when I make money, I will return it to you with interest.”

Mr. Su was very happy and immediately wrote a check for three million, and then tore up his IOU: "Take what is given to you. As long as you can achieve results, I can give you any amount."

Su Heyuan saw that he was so happy to give money, and he suspected that his wealth was not only the eighty to ninety million as estimated, but probably hundreds of millions. This old man could really hide it!

At the same time, Lu Jiaxin also received a call from Sun Wushuang. On the phone, Sun Wushuang told him that Hongzhong Real Estate's stock price had fallen sharply because it had sold a lot of assets.

Sun Wushuang said: "Hongzhong Real Estate's share price was HK$0.98 a month and a half ago. It has started to fall since it was acquired by Yaoming Investment Company. Now it has fallen to HK$0.73 per share."

Lu Jiaxin said: "Sell all the stocks in my hand, and then buy Hongzhong Real Estate's stocks in batches."

Sun Wushuang reminded: "Ms. Lu, this stock will continue to fall. If you buy it, you will probably lose everything."

Lu Jiaxin is not 100% sure, but stock trading is like gambling: "You may lose all your money, or you may make a lot of money."

Seeing that she didn't change her mind, Sun Wushuang stopped talking. As a manager, he told his employer the risks and consequences. If he didn't listen, he wouldn't be blamed if he lost everything.

Three days later, Sun Wushuang called Lu Jiaxin: "Ms. Lu, we have purchased 8 million shares of Hongzhong Real Estate. Because the number of individual shares we purchased is relatively large, Yaomin Investment Company has noticed it."

Lu Jiaxin was not afraid of their investigation and said, "Let's just check. We bought the stocks through formal channels, not illegally."

Sun Wushuang also reminded her, but saw that she didn't care and didn't say much.

That night, Lu Jiaxin received a call from Wang Yadan, inviting her to go hiking on Sunday. It was neither too hot nor too cold, so it was just right for hiking.

Lu Jiaxin said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Sister Wang. I have tutoring on Saturday and I have to visit my aunt in Mid-Levels on Sunday. I don't have time to go hiking now."

Wang Yadan expressed her understanding, and then got to the point: "Miss Lu, my boss said he wants to talk to you about something. Which day do you think is convenient?"

Lu Jiaxin said tactfully, "This is my phone number. If your boss has anything to say, let him call directly and we can communicate on the phone."

Wang Yadan smiled, "Okay, I'll tell my boss."

So many beauties chased their boss in the past, but they all ended up getting frustrated. Now the situation has changed, and it's the boss' turn to chase a girl and get frustrated. Speaking of which, Miss Lu is really amazing. She rejected a top-notch man like her boss. I don't know if she hasn't gotten the hang of it yet or she doesn't like him.

Half an hour later, Lu Jiaxin received a call from Nie Zhan.

Nie Zhan told him about Hongzhong Real Estate: "Hongzhong Real Estate will hold a shareholders' meeting on the 9th of next month. I hope you can attend."

Lu Jiaxin calculated the time and refused: "I have classes on Tuesday, the 9th of next month and I can't go."

This was within Nie Zhan's expectations. He said: "Are you free this Friday? I'll treat you to a meal, and I can tell you about the current business situation of Hongzhong Real Estate."

Lu Jiaxin agreed without hesitation this time. There is no time for romance, but making money can't be delayed, and other things have to be put behind it.
