Chapter 847 Pre-IPO Marketing
"No... She was fine when we left. Why did she suddenly develop these symptoms?"
In the corridor outside the classroom, Lu Yuanqiu put his hands on the wall and asked the person on the other end of the phone in confusion.
Lin Ankang's mother was fine, but suddenly she couldn't walk and had difficulty breathing. After she was sent to the hospital emergency center in Lucheng this morning, Lu Yuanqiu received this call from Bai Songzhe.
"Okay, fine. Tell Aunt Zhang not to panic. I'll wait for your call."
Lu Yuanqiu hung up the phone after saying this.
He heard footsteps from behind, turned around, and saw Bai Qingxia following him out of the classroom.
"What happened?" She walked over and stood by the wall.
Lu Yuanqiu repeated what Bai Songzhe had reported, and added, "Aunt Zhang was so scared she started crying. This morning she almost thought Grandma Lin... was gone."
Everyone, including Aunt Zhang, knew how important a role Grandma Lin played in the whole incident. If something happened to her, there would be no way to make Lin Ankang speak.
Of course, there is also an unethical way. If Grandma Lin cannot be rescued, tell Lin Ankang that it was the financial backer behind the scenes who harmed Grandma Lin, and let Lin Ankang reveal who the financial backer behind the scenes is.
But they would never use this method.
Bai Qingxia: "Wait for news first."
Lu Yuanqiu nodded.
They were about to return to the classroom when they suddenly ran into Liang Jingfeng who had just come out of the classroom. Their eyes met, and Liang Jingfeng first avoided his gaze and prepared to walk around Lu Yuanqiu.
This guy hasn't spoken to Lu Yuanqiu for almost a month. Lu Yuanqiu really didn't expect that the revelation of his identity would cause such a great psychological trauma to Liang Jingfeng. He actually planned to have a good talk with Liang Jingfeng in the next few days, because Mr. Liang also talked to him alone about this matter in the company, saying that Liang Jingfeng had obviously spoken much less in the past month.
But now that Grandma Lin’s incident happened, Lu Yuanqiu lost his mind again.
"Mr. Liang!" Zhang Yang suddenly shouted.
It would be very embarrassing to shout at this time. Liang Jingfeng stopped, but just blocked the way in front of Lu Yuanqiu and the other two. Lu Yuanqiu and the other two looked at him and paused. Liang Jingfeng hurriedly moved aside, with his back pressed against the wall, for fear of blocking Lu Yuanqiu's way.
Zhang Yang looked at Liang Jingfeng's reaction, and glanced at Lu Yuanqiu and the other man with some confusion.
What's wrong? Is Lu Yuanqiu suddenly so scary?
Lu Yuanqiu didn't care. He put his hands in his pockets and returned to his seat with Bai Qingxia.
Zhang Yang put his arm around Liang Jingfeng's neck and said, "That limited edition badge, the one your company has been promoting so popular recently, why don't you get a few of the top-numbered ones for the brothers? You're our only backer at Lu Corporation."
Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia paused and looked back. Liang Jingfeng was so embarrassed that he wanted to escape, but was pulled back by Zhang Yang.
"Hey! Hey! Mr. Liang, don't go!?"
"I need to go to the bathroom!"
"Hey, you don't want your bladder to suffer, do you~"
Limited edition badge.
Xia Yiwan Noodles is so highly valued by the company that, for the sake of early marketing, the publicity and promotion department recently came up with a gimmick, claiming that the packaging of the new instant noodles, which will soon be launched, will contain metal badges, similar to the Water Margin cards in the crispy noodles when we were children.
However, the company invested heavily in adding a few grams of pure gold to some of the badges and packaged them as "limited badges". The limited badges also had Arabic numerals on them, starting with the Arabic numerals "001", which was considered to be a continuation of Xia Yiwan Noodles' original "wooden bowl" idea.
Today, Xia Yiwan Noodles is no longer what it used to be. Its backend has been upgraded from a small shop to two major food companies, Lu’s and Baixi. Therefore, the welfare version 2.0 it offers is far superior to the original version 1.0.
In addition, the public canteens of Zhuhai University are almost all contracted by the Lu family, so the promotional content is naturally posted in all the public canteens of Zhuhai University. The advertising space of each food window is full of badge news, like brainwashing. It is difficult for Zhuhai University students not to know about it. They even know about this matter before people on the Internet.
The badge is considered as early stage marketing, and there will be comic serialization in the later stage. The comic has already released a little bit of information and will cooperate with a well-known comic company. Anyone who is interested in the university and thinks carefully will find the shadow of the original Xia Yiwan Noodles and Big Ben Milk Tea Shop in these gimmicks.
The new instant noodles haven't been launched on the market yet, but the two companies have already pushed their marketing to the extreme. Some people are already preparing to watch the show, saying that after all the publicity, the instant noodles turn out to be terrible after being launched. It's definitely hilarious. It's just a piece of instant noodles, but they use the same promotional tactics as other movies.
They even kept the secret from consumers.
So far, Lu's has not released any news about the name of the new instant noodles. In fact, no one is curious about the name, because Lu's instant noodles have been called Lu's instant noodles for 10 or 20 years. Even if it is a new product, it will probably still be called this name, but it will be labeled as "upgraded".
However, Lu did not release the specific appearance of the badge. The front of the round badge was a "question mark" on the promotional leaflet.
Liang Jingfeng said embarrassedly: "The instant noodles haven't been released yet, where can I get you a badge? Please, please, please let me go to the bathroom!"
Zhang Yang pulled him back again: "You didn't say that before? You said before that if there was anything, I would come to you, especially the matter with the Lu Corporation, which was very easy for you to handle."
Zhong Jincheng glanced at Lu Yuanqiu from his seat. Lu Yuanqiu leaned on the desk, hugged his chest, and rubbed the side of his face awkwardly with his palm.
Liang Jingfeng is about to explode.
Wei Zhiyu complained, "Isn't he just a boaster? It's the first day I met him. The only thing he can give you is something containing gold. Do you think his company is run by him? He can't give you such a thing. It's not scrap metal."
Liang Jingfeng lowered his head.
Zhang Yang: "Bullshit, my Young Master Liang is generous and enthusiastic, and has helped us solve many problems. Don't tarnish the image of Young Master Liang in our hearts."
Wei Zhiyu curled his lips in disapproval.
When Lu Yuanqiu saw Liang Jingfeng, his eyes suddenly became complicated again.
"I really need to go to the bathroom!" He shook off Zhang Yang's arm and ran out of the classroom.
Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia looked at each other. They knew what the badge looked like. A batch of badges had indeed been made. The limited edition solid gold badge with the number 001 was currently placed in Lu Yuanqiu's desk drawer.
001 still belongs to him.
At noon, a call came from Lucheng, and Lu Yuanqiu answered the call in Xia Yiwan Noodle Shop.
The store was crowded and noisy at the moment. Lu Yuanqiu put down his chopsticks, covered his phone and ran outside.
Xia Yi Wan Noodles is incredibly popular on the Zhuda campus. It's so popular that anyone passing by and seeing Lu's new instant noodles promotion can't help but grumble, "So what if a big company's instant noodles are anything but? Can they even compare to a stick of Xia Yi Wan Noodles?"
"Fortunately, he's out of danger. It's refeeding syndrome, but it's not too serious."
"What...what disease?" Lu Yuanqiu felt that he didn't hear clearly.
