Chapter 503 - Mother Gu was enraged all over again. (3)

She was worried that the boss lady would be displeased from her attitude toward her the day before. Now it seemed that not only did the boss lady possess incredible skills, she was also very easy-going and kind.

All that was left in Ivy was the sort of respect one could only have when one was looking up at a tall mountain.

Now she finally understood why the assistant specifically emphasized about the boss lady’s artistic accomplishments.

He wasn’t kidding!

The video clip that Gu Shishi had created quickly extended out of its original circle. Many had reposted it onto their own friend's circles.

If it wasn’t for the QR code at the very end of the clip, nobody would believe that this was nothing but an .

“Find the artist behind this.”

Even Gu Wushuang had seen this video clip a few times in her friend's circle.

She put down her cellphone and said to the Marketing Director, “Huajian, the underdog in sales as of late, also uses ink painting as their packaging. We can totally use promotional videos done in traditional art style for Jiahe’s high-end product lines.

“Recruit that artist. No matter what it takes.”

That was Gu Wushuang’s conclusion.

“But if we just follow suit now, we will be losing our uniqueness…”

“You never had any uniqueness to speak of anyway.”

Gu Wushuang was getting impatient.

She shoved the screen of her cellphone in front of the Marketing Director’s face.

“You may not know this but many in my friend's circle were already willing to book this tour.

“A 14-day trip in old town. Even if each person has their own ride, stays in the best hotel in town, and dines at the best restaurants… the profit of this tour will still be over 100%! At 99,999 yuan per person. All because of a video clip done in traditional art style, the consumers stop worrying about the value for their money.”

Gu Wushuang picked up the skincare product on the table. “We need to ride this traditional art wave and bring up our image in the eyes of the consumers.”

The Marketing Director was a seasoned employee and wanted to state their point some more when they were interrupted by the knocking from the secretary outside.

“Boss Gu, your mother is here.”

Gu Wushuang was a little surprised and the Marketing Director had no choice but to leave.

As soon as the secretary had finished talking, Gu Wushuang could hear her name being called.

Her face dropped a little all of a sudden.

Over the last few months, she tried very hard to scrub off the effect from Gu Jiangxin at the office and had promoted a lot of newcomers.

As many of the seasoned employees would still stubbornly refer to her as “little Boss Gu”. Perhaps because of her age and that she was still a suckling wealthy girl.

She was finally close to establishing herself. Right now her mother was the last person that she wanted to see in the office.

“Mommy! Why are you here?”

As soon as the door opened up and after the Marketing Director had walked out, Gu Wushuang suppressed all of her displeasure and put on a pleasantly surprised look.

“You didn’t even tell me. Had I known I would have gone to pick you up from the airport.”

Her mother looked travel-worn with a leather purse slinged over her shoulder. Her suitcases were still sitting outside of the office.

Coming here from the capital city, she seemed to have aged a lot.

Mother Gu’s face was long and somewhat cold, but relaxed a little when she heard Gu Wushuang’s words.

“I thought you and Wencheng had already forgotten about me. Ever since the start of winter I had been saying that I want to come and stay with you and had Wencheng book me ticket. Then what happened? One day he said he had forgotten about it. The next day there was travel limitations. The day after he had to work overtime. Then he asked me to not come because of the flu.”

“Had I told you that I am coming today. You will probably tell me that you have an International Import Expo to attend to and ask me to wait.”

Mother Gu slammed her purse onto Gu Wushuang’s desk.

She had never said such harsh words to her precious adopted daughter. Her heart ached and she was said when she said those words.

Sure enough, Gu Wushuang turned pale immediately. “Mommy, Brother Cheng and I only have your best interest in mind. The weather is humid and cold in City Shun and it’s bad for your health. You are better off staying at Grandpa’s ––“

“And there is haze there!”

Mother Gu was infuriated all over again!
