Chapter 317 Going Home for the New Year (4)
The reason is simple: Lux wants to increase SR's popularity in China. Despite extensive publicity, the product's popularity is still low, and it is not as well-known as products such as the long-standing Fairy Water.
“But aren’t you selling well?”
Jiang Ningyue was curious, "Then why waste money on this?"
"We are considered a luxury brand among cosmetics. The most important thing about luxury goods is that ordinary people know about the brand. Nowadays, most ordinary people don't know us, which makes our users feel that we are not superior."
Lux introduced, "So we want to use your influence to hold a lottery. You can also use reasons like 'giving back to fans' to hold a lottery."
"You said it well, but why should I do this?" Jiang Ningyue asked back.
Of course, Jiang Ningyue and Irene had a good relationship, so helping her out wasn't a big deal. But Lux probably had something else to say, right?
Sure enough, after hearing Jiang Ningyue's words, Lux smiled and said, "After approval from our group's board of directors, we plan to build a cosmetics processing factory in Haizhou Province."
"oh."
Jiang Ningyue nodded. As a civil servant, she shouldn't advertise for a company. However, if the company wanted to build a factory here, then that was fine. Besides, she wouldn't say anything about advertising.
"So when does it start?"
"January 22nd, right?" Lux said. "If it's any later, it will be your New Year's Day. This week is perfect for us to warm up in advance."
"Okay, let me report to the leader first."
Jiang Ningyue hung up the phone, gave everyone a look to wait, then called Li Chunyan and repeated the matter.
Li Chunyan agreed, "Just by helping to promote it, a Fortune 500 factory has settled in Haizhou. This is a good deal that is sure to make money! Xiaoyue, thank you for your hard work."
"That's not that hard." Jiang Ningyue said with a smile, "Sister, where should we build this factory?"
Li Chunyan said indifferently: "It's just a cosmetics factory."
Jiang Ningyue reminded her, "Sister, SR currently doesn't have an overseas factory. They either ship their products from overseas or use a production line pulled from other Gale Group factories. Once SR officially lands in Haizhou, it will be the only SR factory in Greater China, and even in East and Southeast Asia. This shouldn't be a small business."
Li Chunyan was thoughtful after hearing this. "You make sense. There's no rush for this matter. Let's sit down and have a good chat when you come back."
"Okay, sis."
Finally, after finishing the call, Jiang Ningyue got back into the car, started the engine, and drove towards the village. There was also a TV in the car, playing cartoons. Zhao Dongdong was watching it very happily, and Zhao Rao, who was sitting in the passenger seat, was also studying the large screen on the co-pilot seat.
It was undoubtedly a family-friendly car, and everyone was delighted, except the driver.
——
The car drove into the village, and the elderly people in the village cast curious glances at it. The car undoubtedly stopped in front of Jiang Su's house. Zhao Rao, who was sitting in the passenger seat, opened the door and pulled open the front door. Jiang Ningyue drove in and parked the car in the yard.
“Woof woof woof——”
Da Huang ran out of the house, barking non-stop. Zhao Rao ran up to it and said, "Shut up!"
Dahuang sniffed Zhao Rao, began to shake his head, and moved closer with a flattering look on his face.
Jiang Ningyue opened the car door and got out, coming to Jiang Ni's side. The big yellow dog abandoned Zhao Rao and pounced on Jiang Ningyue, whining. Jiang Ningyue pushed it away with a look of disgust, "Xiao Rao, help my sister in."
"I'm coming." Zhao Rao immediately ran over and helped Jiang Ni into the house.
"I'm not so heavy that I can't walk."
Wang Zhen came out upon hearing the noise and quickly helped her eldest daughter into the house.
"Buying so many more..."
Although he had said it countless times and even Jiang Ningyue was too lazy to answer, Wang Zhen still kept talking tirelessly.
Jiang Ningyue looked around, "Where's my dad?"
"Your dad is amazing," Wang Zhen said with a smile. "He became a township People's Congress representative and followed the leaders... I don't know what he's been doing."
Jiang Ningyue smiled after hearing this, but didn't comment. It was better for the old man to have some personal matters than to stay home smoking and drinking all day and argue with his family.
Jiang Su came back at dinner time. He was very happy to see his daughter back, but he went to find Jiang Ningyue without saying a word.
"My dear, how many followers do you have on Douyin now?"
"Let me take a look."
Jiang Ningyue took out her phone and opened Douyin, "Thirty-seven million."
Back in 2018, when Douyin wasn't as competitive as it is today, Jiang Ningyue joined early, surpassing 10 million followers that year. By 2019, with all the big news, her followers had surpassed 20 million. In recent years, with her involvement in Shannan's cultural tourism sector and the promotion of the TV series "Questioning Haizhou," her followers have reached 37 million.
"So many people." Jiang Su was very surprised. "Then please help us promote the farm in the village and help us find distributors."
Jiang Ningyue glanced at Jiang Su speechlessly, "Don't try to hit on me, I won't help you."
"Why?" Jiang Su didn't understand.
Jiang Ningyue had been too lazy to explain, but when she thought about how her unreliable father had been performing well in the past two years, she patiently explained, "It's just like favors; the more you use them, the thinner they become. You can't rely on me for everything. Isn't that just like relying on others? Besides, how can I promote the farm? Do you mail beef and mutton to me?"
"That's true."
Jiang Su nodded.
"What made you think of this?"
"Oh, today I went to the farm to do some research. The farm manager said that sales are difficult."
"That's normal. The whole northwest raises cattle and sheep, so they're not that easy to sell."
Jiang Ningyue said casually, "When I was in Zhaoyang County, I knew quite a few people in this field. If you're interested, I'll give you a few phone numbers and you can contact them yourself."
"Alright."
It seems that Jiang Su still wants to do this.
Jiang Ningyue was curious: "You are a National People's Congress representative, so you are quite busy."
"That's it."
Jiang Su was very proud, "This is also a step into the official career."
Jiang Ningyue smiled and said, "You are already an old man, and you are still entering the official career."
"I'm not even fifty yet, so my political career is still very young."
Jiang Su was full of confidence, "Maybe I can become a provincial People's Congress representative in the future."
Jiang Ningyue laughed, but she had to admit that it was true. Jiang Su only looked old, but he wasn't actually that old. Now that he wasn't doing farm work, his skin was gradually getting better.
——
That evening, with Jiang Ningyue's authorization, SR Company began promoting on Douyin, Weibo and other channels. The lottery would be live-streamed on Douyin on the 22nd, and at least 1,000 SR sets would be drawn on that day.
Thanks to the publicity from many people, especially in the comment section, some netizens also know that the price of this cosmetic is very expensive.
For a time, the number of fans of Jiang Ningyue's Douyin account skyrocketed, breaking the 40 million mark in just a few days.
