Chapter 273 Is it really Gu Huaijing?
The next day, the sun shone in through the window in the early morning, making Ning Xi unable to open her eyes. She held her head and let out a soft "ouch", and the pain after a hangover gradually overcame her.
She calmed down and looked around before realizing this was a rest room.
She was a little indulgent last night. The last memory before the fragment was of herself blowing in the wind on the deck. There were also some messy and blurry fragments, but she couldn't put them together.
How did she get in here?
She picked up her phone and saw that it was almost ten o'clock in the morning. She was too asleep and the screen was full of missed calls and unread messages.
"Oops……"
Ning Xi quickly freshened up and called Qin Yu.
"Hey, I've contacted you!" Qin Yu showed the caller ID to James and hurriedly answered the call, "Where have you been? You won't answer the phone or text messages. Your brother and I are dying of anxiety."
Ning Xi said: "I'm fine... I'm going to find you now. Where are you?"
"We'll wait for you in the second inner cabin."
Passing through the crowd, Ning Xi saw the anxious figures of the two people in the distance.
"Xiaoyu, I'm here!"
Qin Yu pulled James over and hurried over, anxiously pressing her shoulders and groping up and down: "How are you? Nothing happened?"
Ning Xi shook her head movedly: "It's okay, don't worry."
James breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his sister was safe and sound. He then remembered that Qin Yu had held his hand just now, and he later felt a little embarrassed.
He coughed lightly and said, "What happened last night?"
Ning Xi frowned subconsciously.
"Yesterday I was a little dizzy after drinking, so I went to the deck to get some air. As soon as I woke up, I was in the lounge."
"Maybe the waiter took you there because he saw you were drunk." James pondered for a moment.
Qin Yu listened and felt that something was wrong: "Xiao Xi, which lounge are you sleeping in?"
"410." Ning Xi glanced at it before going out.
"410 is in the corridor behind the jewelry exhibition hall, right?" Qin Yu recalled the answer for a moment, her expression suddenly unnatural, "I passed by there yesterday and seemed to see... I saw Gu Huaijing coming out of there."
When she said this, she had been carefully observing Ning Xi's face, for fear that she would be reminded of something sad.
However, Ning Xi only moved her eyebrows, her face was extremely calm, as if Gu Huaijing was just a stranger.
"What?! He's there too?" James's heart rang with alarms, and his tone suddenly became a little more severe, "This bastard actually dares to harass Xiao Xi now!"
"Hey, it just seems, it seems. Don't be so impulsive."
Ning Xi didn't want her brother to cause more trouble for her: "Okay, brother, I'm fine, don't think too much about it."
Although she said this, there were actually some vague fragments in her memory, in which a man held her and whispered something gently to her.
...Is it really Gu Huaijing?
This idea was quickly dismissed by her, probably because she was really drunk and hallucinating.
After the banquet, the cruise ship slowly returned to port.
Ning Xi drank a cup of hangover soup and then changed her clothes to go back to the company. Seeing this, Qin Yu advised: "You drank too much yesterday, just take a day off today."
Ning Xi only said: "The company still has a project to discuss, and I have to go."
James saw the pain in his eyes and felt in his heart: "But you won't be able to bear this..."
"I'm fine. My uncle and aunt went on their honeymoon, and now the company is all in my hands. I can't live up to their expectations."
Ning Xi put the two of them into a taxi, "Be careful on the road."
Watching the vehicle gradually disappear from sight, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Firstly, the company was busy, and secondly, she didn't want to let herself be idle. Whenever she had free time, she couldn't help but think of the unborn child, especially after mentioning Gu Huaijing.
She composed herself and forced herself to cheer up.
No matter what, the past is gone and she will never look back.
Wen's Group has recently expanded its market to the clothing industry and is preparing to establish its own clothing brand. Ning Xi handled everything from project establishment to application, and it can be said that she put a lot of effort into it.
In the afternoon, she held a shareholders' meeting to explain the project progress again.
Some shareholders raised objections: "The clothing industry is too deep, and there are as many new brands as crucian carp crossing the river every year. If we want to increase our popularity, we can only fight a tug-of-war. Will the investment cost be too high?"
Someone immediately echoed him: "Yes, our company has not been deeply involved in this area before. Is it too hasty to enter the market hastily?"
Zhang Ping and Wang Qing were the veterans of the company. Their words easily aroused everyone's suspicion, and the directors looked at each other in confusion.
Zhang Ping shook his head: "If you ask me, Mr. Ning is still too young."
Assistant Zhang coughed lightly and reminded them to pay attention to their words.
Who would have thought that Wang Qing would not go down this level at all, and said loudly: "Young man, you don't have to wink at me. Old Liu is a bit more straightforward, but we are doing this for the good of the company. If something happens then, it won't be good." Isn’t it the end?”
Assistant Zhang looked at Ning Xi, who signaled him not to speak with her eyes.
These days, her abilities are obvious to all, but Zhang Ping and Wang Qing think highly of themselves, as if they think she is young and easy to bully.
"Before I entered the market, I naturally did research."
Ning Xi asked Assistant Zhang to take out a pile of documents and distribute them to everyone. She looked calm, as if she didn't take those words to heart at all, "This is the clothing preferences and consumption habits of various age groups in City A, as well as the clothing preferences and consumption habits of each circle, which I have recently investigated and summarized. The existing market and development space of the layer are combined with the data of the past five years. If you feel that this is not comprehensive enough, you can help to find out the gaps. "
Everyone looked through it one by one, and sure enough they saw the data analysis and development derivation above...
Even the pickiest Zhang Ping couldn't find the fault. He closed the file and snorted unconvinced.
"This research is one thing, but building your own brand is another. According to your direction, half of the funds will be consumed in advertising and marketing expenses in the first half of the year. Have you ever thought about the problem that the subsequent capital chain cannot keep up? Really naive?”
"If it's a tug-of-war, that's true. But -" Ning Xi guessed that he would be so angry and raised the corner of her mouth slightly, "Who told you that I was going to start a tug-of-war?"
Wang Qing was amused by her: "Mr. Ning probably doesn't know, right? The clothing industry is no better than other industries. If you don't make your name known, who will buy your clothes? Do you think you are selling valuables?"
Ning Xi said calmly: "Indeed."
"I plan to innovate the intangible Ou embroidery culture of City A and use it in our clothing. At the largest auction exhibition in City A last year, a painting of Ou embroidery beauty worth seven figures was sold. If If this precious technique is used in our clothing, every piece of clothing will be a work of art.”
"Moreover, this batch of clothes is not very refined. As long as they are famous, they will be sold as limited edition high-end clothes in the future. It will not affect the production line, but also maintain the original intention of cultural inheritance."
Wang Qing didn't expect that she actually came prepared. He rolled his eyes and quickly found another loophole.
Ou embroidery in City A is a world-famous artistic treasure, but this technique is too complex and many details have been lost. Nowadays, there are almost as many people who are proficient in Ou embroidery as there are Class II protected animals.
"Not to mention City A, there are not many people in the country who can embroider in Ou. It sounds nice, but who are you looking for to embroider?"
Ning Xi said loudly: "I have found the most famous Ou embroidery master at that time, Ms. Rong. This is the training contract she signed with our company to provide our company with first-hand Ou embroidery apprentice resources."
With that said, he gently placed the contract on the table.
