The two women were talking to each other when Xiao Jincheng waved to them, "What are you whispering about? Come over and eat and chat!"
At the dinner table, Zou Nan said with a smile, "President Xiao, last night I received an email from the head of the 'Baoli' brand development department. They warmly welcome us, and this morning the general manager of 'Baoli' will personally receive us."
Xiao Jincheng smiled and nodded, "Okay, I understand."
Zou Nan did not see the two-second pause in the reaction he had imagined.
Yuan Dong quickly added, "Mr. Xiao, according to our previous investigation, Macaulay, the general manager of 'Poly,' rarely receives visitors. Mr. Zou must have put in a lot of effort when communicating with the brand."
Ye Tang also chimed in, "President Zou is indeed working very hard; I've translated so many documents."
Zou Nan smiled and said, "This is what I should do."
Xiao Jincheng simply nodded. "Has everyone finished eating? If so, go back and pack up. We'll leave promptly at 9 o'clock."
Jiang Xiaoli put down her napkin. "Uncle Xiao, see you in a bit."
Cao Jie followed behind her, and as they left the restaurant, she couldn't help but wipe away the tears that were about to fall.
"Chairman Jiang, I'm about to die laughing. Are these three really capable? I think they're more suited to performing in skits."
She shook her head and chuckled, "It's all work, it's normal to want to achieve results. They don't even know that Grandpa and Uncle put in the effort."
Cao Jie nodded. "I understand what you mean, but it's really hilarious."
Jiang Xiaoli couldn't help but laugh when she thought of the scene in the restaurant earlier. "It's nice to add a little fun to life."
The two arrived at Jiang Xiaoli's room. She put on a simple yet powerful makeup in front of the mirror, and then took out a set of pearl jewelry from the jewelry box and put it on.
This was the first time Cao Jie had ever seen such beautiful pearls; each one was so round and full.
She was surprised to find that, "Chairman Jiang, this is so beautiful! Every single pearl looks the same size."
Jiang Xiaoli was wearing a black turtleneck sweater, layered with a long pearl necklace and a pair of pearl earrings.
She laughed and said, "There are definitely subtle differences, but they are basically indistinguishable to the naked eye."
She went back to the suite's living room and put on a brown trench coat-style cashmere coat. "Let's go, it's about time."
The others waited in the hotel lobby lounge area.
Upon seeing them, Xiao Jincheng stood up and said with a smile, "Little Pear, are you wearing a 'Polly' jacket?"
Jiang Xiaoli said with a smile, "Uncle Xiao, you've put in a lot of effort lately. This is one of their new winter styles."
She raised her hand and shook the bag in her hand. "This one too."
Xiao Jincheng slapped his forehead. "Look at me! I was never as thoughtful as you!"
As they walked out, she said, "It's just about making a good impression on them; the main thing is our investment promotion plan."
This move by her was something the three people in the investment promotion department hadn't anticipated, and even if they had, they couldn't have done it.
This business trip involves visiting seven or eight brands. It's impossible for working-class people like them to buy every single item from every high-end luxury brand.
On their way to the "Polly" headquarters, they split into two cars.
Ye Tang muttered quietly, avoiding the driver, "Brother Nan, look at her attitude, will we even have a chance to make a move later?"
Yuan Dong also expressed his concern, saying, "Yes, I have a bad feeling about this."
Zou Nan glanced at them both and said, "You two better be alert! Aren't we going to rely on you when you're presenting the investment proposal later? What's the rush!"
A short while later, the car stopped in front of the "Polly" headquarters building.
A well-dressed blond man approached Jiang Xiaoli with his secretary after she got out of the car. "Welcome, Miss Jiang, to 'Baoli'."
Jiang Xiaoli smiled slightly, "Hello, Mr. Macaulay."
She then introduced, "This is my business partner, Mr. Xiao Jincheng."
After shaking hands, McCauley apologized, "Mr. Xiao, please forgive the previous neglect of you by the 'Polly' staff. Now that I understand your relationship with Ms. Jiang, I am very interested in your shopping mall!"
Dai Guangbin acted as a translator, translating Macaulay's words to Xiao Jincheng.
Xiao Jincheng smiled and said, "Our 'Jinghua Center' will definitely not let you down."
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, McCauley and his secretary led them into the "Polly" headquarters building.
The three people following behind, including Zou Nan, were completely bewildered.
Translate exactly what Macaulay said to them.
Yuan Dong frowned and said, "It seems that this President Jiang's background is much stronger than we imagined."
Zou Nan didn't want to hear this, so he asked Ye Tang, "Don't you have any useful information from Cao Jie?"
Ye Tang looked quite innocent, and she quickly said, "Brother Nan, Cao Jie didn't get back until after 10 pm yesterday. She went to her room to wash up and then said she was tired and fell asleep right away. I didn't have a chance at all..."
Zou Nan sighed, "Judging from this, it seems we're basically out of the picture with 'Polly'."
Yuan Dong disagreed. "President Zou, are you suggesting that President Xiao and President Jiang personally present the investment promotion plan? Can they even explain it clearly?"
"Did they even need to explain it clearly?" Zou Nan said speechlessly. "If their connections were really that strong, why would they care about any investment promotion plan? It would just be a matter of a word from them!"
Zou Nan's guess was indeed correct.
Upon arriving at the conference room, Jiang Xiaoli, Xiao Jincheng, and McCauley chatted for a while.
Xiao Jincheng suggested, "Mr. Macaulay, after all this introduction, why don't you listen to our specific investment promotion plan for the 'Jinghua Center'?"
Just as Zou Nan was about to stand up and give his speech, he heard McCauley say, "Mr. Xiao, I reviewed the investment proposal your company sent us last night. May I ask you a few questions today?"
"Of course, go ahead and ask," Xiao Jincheng said, raising his hand politely.
McCauley stated, "According to survey data, 'Polly's' competitors have not performed well in the Chinese market. Mr. Xiao, what are your plans to address this?"
Jiang Xiaoli smiled. "Mr. Macaulay, may I answer this question?"
“Of course!” Macaulay gestured for him to proceed.
She began by saying, "Currently, there are 6 high-end luxury brands that have taken the lead in entering the Chinese market, and 2 of them are competitors of 'Polly.' They have only opened a small, standalone store in China as part of their early strategic planning."
Unlike "Jinghua Center", our positioning from the beginning has been to create a high-end shopping mall like "Harrods" in Great Britain, bringing together high-end luxury and boutique brands from all over the world.
Mr. McCauley, no shopping mall in China has yet achieved this; Jinghua Center is the first to take a slice of the pie.
We have developed dozens of marketing plans that can help "Polly" open up the Chinese market in the fastest possible time. We are your best choice.
