Chu Yu was incredibly efficient; in less than two days, he had gathered all six of Liu Mingchuan's apprentices.
Of course, she didn't contact those girls. In her memory, it was these girls who tricked Liu Mingchuan out of his research and development patent and sold it to a Japanese cosmetics company. Although Chu Yu wasn't sure who did it, it was always right to target them from all sides.
Better to miss out than let it go.
She only kept a few male apprentices.
"master!"
"professor!"
When Wen Pei led her apprentices to the research room that Chu Yu had just prepared, Liu Mingchuan was still in a daze. In his opinion, it was not an easy task to gather these six people. Even if Chu Yu was very capable, it would take him ten days to half a month.
How did she manage to do that in less than two days?
Wen Pei seemed to see what he was thinking and explained with a smile, "Xiao Chu is really interesting. She told your apprentices that she kidnapped you, and that she would release you as long as they agreed to work for her company and work with you."
Liu Mingchuan: "..."
Liu Mingchuan suspected that these people had lost their minds. How could his stupid apprentices believe such an absurd excuse?
“Your apprentices aren’t stupid, but they just think you’ll never do well at Xiao Chu’s company. They think you’re arrogant, conceited, and disdainful of others. Xiao Chu finally gave you a chance to be the head of the R&D department, and you won’t last three days on such a good opportunity before you’re fired! That’s why they’re rushing to cover for you and clean up your mess, hoping you’ll stay here for a few more years so you can at least have a job. It’s better than going out and getting framed and going to jail!”
Liu Mingchuan's native language is speechlessness.
He's really his own apprentice; he's afraid his life is getting too easy, so he wants to visit him in prison all the time.
Liu Mingchuan was furious and threw several stacks of documents over without any expression.
"Alright, enough with the reminiscing. It's not like we haven't seen each other for years. The female boss needs to develop sunscreen. Right now, none of the sunscreens on the market can block UVA and UVB rays. If our sunscreen is to be a hit, it has to go in that direction. Developing a broad-spectrum sunscreen ingredient will be our next goal."
Having developed the spectral components, the next step is to apply for a patent.
Once the patent application is obtained, only Mandarin and its brands will be able to use their research. This monopolistic technology is the key to the product's success and widespread popularity.
Da Lei put on a white coat and leaned closer: "Professor Liu, I have a direction regarding broad-spectrum sunscreen ingredients..."
“We did an experiment last year. It seems there were some research findings at the time. Let me think, what was the name of the experiment we did last year…” said the apprentice, Jia Quan.
A group of people chattered amongst themselves, turning the once quiet laboratory into a boiling pot of porridge, with everyone wanting to say something.
Liu Mingchuan pressed his temples and felt a headache.
Thanks to the female devil, he not only has endless research and development work, but also endless worries.
As a team, they worked together very smoothly. Liu Mingchuan assigned the work to his apprentices, and he could also read some of the latest international research papers to find the future development direction of skincare products.
Their team was not suited for sales and brand planning, and Chu Yu's presence made up for their shortcomings, while their presence compensated for the disadvantages of a new brand with insufficient R&D efforts.
Currently, Mandarin already has products such as toner, lotion, face cream, and face mask, and products such as lipstick, sunscreen, foundation, and eyebrow pencil are under development.
Most cosmetics have different product lines targeting young people and middle-aged and elderly people.
Chu Yu pondered that skincare products for young people should focus on moisturizing, while those for older people should focus on anti-aging.
If different series could be distinguished, the variety of Mandarin would appear much richer.
Chu Yu also conveyed her thoughts to Liu Mingchuan.
Summer vacation has arrived, but Chu Yu is not going to school. Instead, she is working at several companies, handling company affairs.
Hua Lai's Xiao Zhong handed the proposal to Chu Yu early in the morning. This proposal was made according to Chu Yu's requirements and was a development plan tailored for Zuo Ran and Hua Qing.
When it comes to making grand promises—one-year plans, five-year plans, ten-year plans—Chu Yu has never lost.
"Boss, please take a look. If there are no problems, I'll show it to Zuo Ran and Hua Qing."
Chu Yu took it and looked at it carefully, then drew a line on one of the lines with a pen. "The MV shooting is too simple. How can you just borrow a recording studio, or find a tourist attraction, beach, or hotel to shoot an MV?"
Xiao Zhong was even more confused than her, "How else can we shoot it? Aren't all music videos on the market shot this way?"
Chu Yu was stunned for a moment before realizing that in 1986, not only in China, but also worldwide, there were no music videos with a storyline. In later years, the production of music videos was comparable to that of short films, and many actors entered the entertainment industry by starring in music videos.
Chu Yu couldn't help but laugh. So, if she asked Chu Xiang to write a short script for Zuo Ran and Hua Qing's music video, wouldn't that be groundbreaking?
“Since we’ve signed them, we have to be responsible for them. I’m thinking that the current music videos aren’t very unique, so why don’t I have my sister write a few story scripts for them to use as background stories for the songs?”
Xiao Zhong was a little confused. "Could you be more specific?"
"For example, if we use Hua Qing as an insert song for 'Young and Dangerous 3,' the music video could incorporate key scenes from the movie to serve as its background story. Or take 'Zuo Ran,' a heartbreak song about two young people who go from school uniforms to wedding dresses, only to end up as strangers. We could create a story for this song: the two meet in school, develop feelings for each other, the boy joins a gang, the girl goes to university, the boy wears jeans, the girl wears a princess dress… Although they're together, they eventually drift apart. Finally, the boy, wanting to buy the girl a ring, gets into a fight with thugs, but is fatally wounded in the process. In the end, the male lead, covered in blood, goes to the female lead's house with the ring and wedding dress, only to see her parents arranging a blind date for her through the glass… The male lead doesn't disturb her, and dies at the intersection where he first met the female lead, clutching the wedding dress and ring."
