The news of Qiao Ru's pregnancy also reached Qiao Shanshan's ears through her colleagues, who congratulated her.
"Your sister got pregnant so quickly. She must have a very good relationship with Instructor Lu, right? I really envy her. When you two sisters came to the team, everyone thought you were beautiful, had a good job, and had a chance to marry Instructor Lu. Who would have thought that your sister would marry him instead! But it's not so bad. The two sisters can take care of each other, which is better than you staying in the team alone."
After finishing speaking, my colleague packed up his bandaging tools and left.
Qiao Shanshan's expression was off; her eyes were so dark they could bleed. Qiao Ru was really pregnant? And Lu Jinwen was so impatient? He hadn't made her pregnant in his past life, but in this life, he and Qiao Ru had such a good relationship, living like husband and wife every day!
Qiao Shanshan touched her stomach and became a little worried. What if there was really something wrong with her body?
Is there any decent man in the team who could accept her?
Let alone marrying into the Dai family, it would be difficult even to marry into an ordinary family!
Qiao Shanshan wanted to go to the hospital for a checkup to make sure there was nothing wrong with her body, but she didn't dare to go. If the results came back to the team, her marriage would be affected. She, Qiao Shanshan, couldn't do such a foolish thing!
Qiao Ru noticed Qiao Shanshan's disappointment and tried to get closer to her, but Qiao Shanshan always ignored her and didn't care about their sisterly relationship. After a while, Qiao Ru gave up trying to win her over.
Let Qiao Shanshan do whatever she wants!
Saying she dreamt of her past life where she married Lu Jinwen—even if it were real, so what? It was her past life, wasn't it? Who says the same thing has to happen in every life? Who says only she, Qiao Shanshan, can marry Lu Jinwen, but she can't?
Qiao Ru is good at managing her life; she will definitely live a good life and impress Qiao Shanshan.
After entering 1990, Liuguang's development in the mainland also got on track. This year, news of the development of shopping malls came from several major cities. As expected, more shopping malls will be built next year, and then Liuguang and Mandarin will be able to enter these high-end shopping malls.
High-end shopping malls will screen and concentrate customers for merchants. Customers will recognize the brands in high-end shopping malls. Liuguang and Mandarin are quite famous in mainland China, so they will naturally be the first to enter the mall. At that time, the sales of Liuguang and Mandarin will gradually increase.
Liuguang's sales have never been as good as Mandarin's. After all, Liuguang's product range is relatively limited. It focuses on medical skincare products, and the concept hasn't been hyped up, so it hasn't gained popularity in mainland China.
However, the repurchase rate of Liuguang skincare products is quite high. Customers with skin problems who have used Liuguang cannot accept other skincare products and will repurchase Liuguang products year after year, showing particularly high loyalty.
Chu Yu saw Liuguang's potential in Liuguang's repurchase report.
This brand needs time. Although it didn't grow as fast as Mandarin, Mandarin's success relied on the team's technology, the accumulation of funds and support, luck, and riding the wave of a gap in the Chinese skincare market. But Liuguang is different.
Liuguang's profits this year have already recouped the acquisition costs, and Liuguang's technology is also being used in some of Mandarin's cosmetics, which is enough.
The formula created by Dr. Li has been continuously verified by Liu Mingchuan. Overall, the future of Liuguang skincare products is very promising.
Chu Yu also tasted the sweetness of the acquisition.
Acquisitions only cost a little money; you can buy technology that others have been researching for decades. If you can acquire more brands like Liuguang, Mandarin's specialized technologies will increase, and its growth will accelerate.
Chu Yu told Li Miao her thoughts.
Li Miao also felt that if Mandarin wanted to expand rapidly, it needed to focus more on its technology.
However, relying solely on the hundred or so professionals in the laboratory, the research and development progress is very limited. It may take several years for many ingredients to go from being proposed to being successfully developed.
Mandarin has already attracted many talents returning from abroad this year, and its R&D team is growing stronger. Chu Yu has also allocated funds to Mandarin to import a batch of new machines. If it can acquire two more small brands, it will undoubtedly be the icing on the cake.
“Okay, I will ask the staff stationed abroad to keep an eye out for this. If there are any suitable niche brands, I will ask them to investigate them, and then our R&D team will evaluate them and finally decide whether to acquire them.”
Li Miao's words reassured Chu Yu somewhat. Indeed, Mandarin had teams in many countries abroad, and having these teams conduct the investigation would obviously be faster.
Chu Yu is getting married this year. Although she can travel for work at any time after marriage, she will inevitably not be as free as she is now.
Chu Yu plans to get all her work sorted out before getting married, ensuring all her companies are operating smoothly, so she'll have more time to enjoy married life.
Meanwhile, Zhou Jian'an in Gangcheng was completely aroused. Ever since Jiang Yu announced that she would offer herself to Zhou Jian'an on her birthday, Zhou Jian'an had been itching to do something, constantly feeling something luring him. Just thinking about Jiang Yu's hot body would make Zhou Jian'an's nose bleed.
He liked Jiang Yu too much. His feelings for Jiang Yu were genuine. Jiang Yu had been keeping him hanging for more than half a year. Now that she was finally going to give him some sweetness, how could he wait any longer?
On Jiang Yu's birthday, Zhou Jian'an went home early.
He dressed up, wearing a white shirt and a black suit, and carefully combed his hair. He also bought a bouquet of flowers from a flower shop and brought along a gift he had carefully chosen for Jiang Yu before knocking on Jiang Yu's door.
