Chapter 522 - "I sure hope Gu Wushuang will be happy when she sees my resume." (2)
“Then let’s go with Boss Wushuang’s suggestion and increase our advertising effort. We will host some Camellia Tea Gathering and invite women from the upper circle and celebrities to try our products and help us spread the words.” The Head of Marketing, who had been put on the spot, was the first to offer up his ideas.
Having said that, both the heads of Sales and Strategy agreed with him.
Gu Wushuang nodded. “Okay, we will move forward with this strategy. Give me a detailed proposal and budget for me to review today.”
She knew nothing yet she insisted on meddling.And, whenever she meddled, it was to go down the wrong path.
Almost everyone who had objected to her ideas had been replaced.
The remaining were mostly the ones who would brownnose and flatter those in power, aiming to milk it out to retirement in the company.
They would go along with whatever ideas that she may have.
“Meeting is adjourned then.
“Have Human Resource try to reach out to that artist again. Offer them double their compensation, okay?” said Gu Wushuang as she smiled nonchalantly at the head of Human Resource.
Everybody looked over at Manager Li.Sure enough, Manager Li nodded, “Sure.”
It was quite obvious that Jiahe was already starting to go downhill.
Huo Wencheng had been helping Gu Wushuang with reviewing the reports but had since withdrawn after she had put together her own team of people.
He didn’t want them to have lovers’ quarrel over profits and issues of the company.
Even so, Huo Wencheng still somewhat felt that something wasn’t right from what Gu Wushuang had been telling him about Jiahe over the phone as of late.
“Shuang, Jiahe should focus on the low-end products right now. There is no rush going into high-end just yet.
“Right now… …”
Huo Wencheng couldn't help but offer up his advice.
“We need to keep up with the times, Brother Cheng. There is nothing to worry about.”
Gu Wushuang straight up cut him off.
She would normally listen to him.
After all, Huo Wencheng was much more experienced than her when it came to management and the market. She would not have accepted the shares but would rather have taken cash had she not have him by her side.
Things had changed, however.
Gu Wushuang knew full well that his intention was to divorce him.
He wanted to dump her so he could return to the Huo family and succeed their family business.
He was no longer the Brother Cheng who would help her and ask for nothing in return.
She had schemed for the reporters to come and exposed the matters between the two of them so he would not be able to bring up divorce. Surely that would make him have hard feelings toward her and hate her!
There was no way he would still have her best interest in mind!
He was probably just waiting around for her failure.
She barely thought through his suggestion before she dismissed it.
“Brother Chen, I will discuss with the managers at the company. You should focus on how to appease Aunty.
“Let’s go shopping together this weekend and find a gift for Aunty. I think she was soften up her stance toward you.”
Gu Wushuang quickly change the subject.
Huo Wencheng knew that she would not listen to him no matter what he said so he quickly kept his mouth shut.
He didn’t know when it started but it seemed the two of them have been walking down two different paths.
It may look like they were walking side by side but the distance between them seemed to be widening.
“Alright.”
Huo Wencheng lowered his hand and gave his cellphone a spin.
It was time for him to go home.
The weather was warming up.
Gu Shishi, after the first month was finally over and was allowed to go home, stretched next to the window and took a deep breath of the fresh air.
“Oh wow. It felt like I had been drunk and dreaming for a long time. The days had been so comfortable that I am starting to question life.”
No wonder so many people get post-partum depression.
Over the last two months, all she had been doing was eating, sleeping, feeding the baby, and nothing else.
She was lazy and bored to a point of desperation……
She would have lost herself had she not been painting on the side.
As though she was nothing more than a child-raising machine.
“I have been working crazy hours everyday and been updating you with fresh melons every night and you are telling me that you are the one who is doubting life?”
Huo ChuChu, who was single, could not relate to the pain of the lactation period.
That being said, she brought new melon again today.
