Lishui City’s comrcial center, towering office buildings.
In the chairman’s office of Lishui Beauty Sports Group, Wei Jia was sitting at a tidy desk reviewing docunts.
She was dressed in a well-tailored black suit matched with a white silk shirt, her long, shiny black hair neatly tied at the back, with a few strands draped over her thin-frad glasses falling naturally by her cheeks, adding a hint of allure.
"President Wei, we encountered so technical difficulties with that new project yesterday, which may affect the schedule." At this mont, a subordinate knocked and entered, holding a folder, reporting with a hint of nervousness.
"What specific issues?" Wei Jia slightly raised her eyes, her gaze indifferent.
After the subordinate hurriedly explained the difficulties, Wei Jia slightly furrowed her brow, briefly contemplated after flipping through their docunts, and then said, "Contact President Hu, get them to connect with the previous consultant. Simultaneously, adjust the project plan and advance other components. We can’t let the overall schedule be heavily impacted."
The subordinate, hearing this, hesitated, saying, "But President Wei, this might increase costs."
President Wei calmly closed the docunts and said, "Costs are not your primary concern right now; delivering the project on ti is key. Go ahead."
The subordinate quickly nodded and turned to leave the office.
As the door closed, the subordinate caught a glimpse of Wei Jia continuing to focus on paperwork through the gap, her emotions unaffected, secretly admiring her before closing the door and leaving.
Bzzz. Bzzz.
At this mont, Wei Jia noticed her phone vibrating on the desk, glanced at it but didn’t bother until it vibrated twice more. Only then did she frown slightly and pick it up.
When she just opened the ssaging app showing a new ssage, her beautiful eyes widened slightly, and the cool and sharp deanor from before weakened considerably, replaced with a touch of surprise in her eyes and a slight upturned smile.
The image of the man she t in Celestial Sea City flashed through her mind, and she smiled, replying to the ssage: "Well, Young Master Li, do you have ti to visit us in Lishui today?"
"Don’t, I’m not so ’Young Master Li,’ let alone here for an inspection. But today I happened to be discussing a project with your company."
"Discussing a project with our company?"
Wei Jia was surprised, quickly running through all the major recent projects in her mind but still couldn’t guess, puzzlingly asking, "Which company are you representing? I have no impression of any major project scheduled today."
"Really not lying to you, just set it at Tianyue Restaurant."
"Tianyue Restaurant?"
Upon hearing the na of this restaurant, Wei Jia confird the other party wasn’t joking because this was indeed a mid-range restaurant in Lishui City.
However, a project discussed at Tianyue Restaurant surely wouldn’t be too significant, so why would he go there?
Imdiately, she thought about it. Though unsure of what specifically it might involve, she still typed with a smile: "What project are you discussing, need any help?"
"That’s too embarrassing, but since we haven’t started talking yet, let’s see after the discussion.
Do you have ti today? I was thinking of visiting Lishui and inviting you to a al. If you’re busy, I won’t disturb you."
"Inviting again? You treated last ti too, but since you’re on my turf now, of course, it’s my turn to treat you."
"Alright, let’s et after you finish your work today."
"OK."
Putting down her phone, Wei Jia’s lips curved upwards, resting her chin on her hand, she pondered for a bit before continuing to process docunts.
About an hour later, Wei Jia finally completed the docunts, picked up her phone, intending to make a reservation at her usual restaurant.
But rembering Li Jing’s review of the food last ti, she started hesitating again.
Just then, seeing her assistant co in to fetch so docunts, she casually asked, "Do you know of a good Hunan restaurant in Lishui City, one with an authentic vibe and taste?"
"An authentic vibe, authentic tasting Hunan restaurant?"
The female assistant was a bit surprised, then thoughtfully, her eyes suddenly lit up, "The newly opened Xiangfu Restaurant is nice, not only upscale but I heard they hired a Hunan cuisine chef. You might want to try it, President Wei."
"Xiangfu Restaurant?"
Wei Jia murmured a sentence softly, didn’t say anything, and then seed to have thought of sothing, hesitated to speak.
"President Wei, is there sothing else?"
Seeing Wei Jia acting a bit strange, the assistant asked with concern, "President Wei, is there anything I need to do?"
Upon hearing this, Wei Jia finally spoke, looking at the other: "Do any departnts have plans to go out for client etings today?"
"Today?" The assistant pondered seriously before shaking her head, "The company hasn’t scheduled any etings with important clients today."
Noticing Wei Jia slightly frowning, the female assistant imdiately understood her answer wasn’t pleasing and quickly added, "But our other subsidiaries might have client etings planned. Do you want to clarify?"
Seeing Wei Jia nod, the assistant promptly called to inquire about the situation of the group companies. Not long after, a response ca, "President Wei, the content director of ’Self-Discipline, Self-Strength’ is eting soone at Tianyue Restaurant today, discussing a collaboration for the fitness influencer developnt plan ntioned in last ti’s project proposal."
"Fitness influencer?"
Wei Jia frowned. ’Self-Discipline, Self-Strength’ is an MCN agency under her group, responsible for short video content related to sports and health.
But thinking about Li Jing’s physique, she really couldn’t see him fit for this, and with his financial strength, he wouldn’t need to venture into this field.
However, after confirming there were no other projects being discussed at Tianyue Restaurant, Wei Jia took a mont to think and then let the assistant leave: "Okay, I got it."
Returning to her office, Wei Jia lit a ladies’ cigarette, stood by the window watching the cityscape with a faint, puzzling gaze: "Why would Li Jing discuss an influencer plan with our company? He surely can’t be aiming to be an influencer himself, unless he plans to recomnd soone?"
With that thought, she decisively extinguished the cigarette and picked up her phone to ssage Li Jing:
"Are you accompanying others to discuss a collaboration with our MCN agency?"
"How did you know? You’re amazing, worthy of being a boss. I didn’t say anything, and you guessed it."
Receiving Li Jing’s complint, Wei Jia chuckled lightly and then said, "Who is cooperating with us? Your beautiful friends?"
Though Wei Jia wasn’t familiar with Li Jing’s romantic status, knowing rich n as she did, she was sure with his conditions, there must be no shortage of won around him, and beautiful ones at that.
"Of course not, it’s a friend of mine who loves fitness; he’s very interested in your company’s plans."
"Your friend?"
Wei Jia raised an eyebrow, "Looks like you have a good relationship, personally accompanying him."
"Of course, he’s my close buddy."
Seeing the term "close buddy," Wei Jia’s expression slightly changed.
Then, after a mont of reflection, she put down her phone, summoned the assistant again, and asked her to bring the relevant docunts.
"President Wei, this is the latest project proposal for ’Self-Discipline, Self-Strength’ you requested."
Seeing Wei Jia in the boss chair begin to flip through the docunts she brought, the female assistant quickly reported briefly:
"Currently, short video and influencer economies are in a high-growth phase. Celestial Sea City already has a company running influencer accounts in the sports and fitness sector, yielding positive feedback.
Thus, ’Self-Discipline, Self-Strength’ plans to increase its investnt, seek head office support, and target multiple promising candidates for focused developnt, creating influencer accounts to expand our brand influence and capture first-mover advantage."
As she listened to the assistant’s report, Wei Jia attentively read through the ’Self-Discipline, Self-Strength’ project proposal. Once she finished, her eyes slightly narrowed, leaning back against the chair, extending her slender, fair fingers, tapping the desk repeatedly.
The assistant knew this was her boss’s thinking posture, so she stood quietly by, patiently waiting.
Soon, Wei Jia finally lifted her delicate face again and instructed her assistant, "Inform ’Self-Discipline, Self-Strength’ that I plan to participate in this collaboration negotiation, and change the venue to Xiangfu Restaurant."
"President Wei, you want to personally guide this negotiation?" The female assistant’s eyes widened in surprise.
"You’re right. Nowadays, short video platforms have massive user bases and high user engagent. This ans we have a broad potential audience base."
Wei Jia calmly analyzed, "The thinking at ’Self-Discipline, Self-Strength’ isn’t forward-looking enough. By developing short videos and influencer businesses, we can not only broaden brand influence but also expand the company’s business scope, extending from traditional product sales to content creation, advertisent marketing, and e-comrce operations, reducing reliance on a single business, enhancing risk resistance, and achieving diversified developnt."
Saying this, she stood up: "But all of this depends initially on us creating genuinely top-tier accounts, so I plan to check the candidates they’ve selected.
If the other party also has sufficient resources or financial backing, our developnt plans will be much easier to implent."
"The other party?" The assistant was puzzled, "I just confird with them, and the other side seems to be just a small fitness blogger with so followers. Where would they get resources?"
"He might not, but his friend surely does."
Wei Jia smiled slightly, already at the office door: "In a mont, you drive. Wait for at exit one."
"Alright."
The female assistant agreed, watching Wei Jia’s departing figure, involuntarily tilting her head in confusion:
How co it feels like President Wei... is a bit different today?
