Chapter 557 You are so rich!
Everyone was full of hope, and Gu Qingshi was also ready to do a great job, but he encountered some problems first.
This is normal. No matter in life or career, it is impossible to be smooth sailing all the time. You will still encounter difficult challenges along the way.
The growing domestic market has naturally attracted the attention of some foreign businessmen. Some foreign brands have set their eyes on this big domestic pie, waiting to share it.
Among them are quite a few skin care and beauty brands, which have been around intermittently before, but the moves were not big. In addition, Gu Qingshi’s brand quality is well-known, so there is no problem.
Gu Qingshi had previously entered the beauty and cosmetics market with good results, but this time the foreign beauty and cosmetics brand BeautyMian came in very aggressively.
The promotion of Gu's products is basically a combination of advertising and word of mouth, but this Beauty Face Cosmetics is very aggressive, with a direct advertising bombardment. The company is wealthy and is willing to invest.
The advertisements were everywhere, and they were well-promoted and packaged. They said they used the most advanced technology and were all imported. Because there were many varieties and the products were very effective, they immediately attracted a lot of people.
At this time, everyone has great faith in some foreign products. Some people even think that as long as it is foreign, it is better than domestic ones, and they blindly praise and follow them.
The advertising was very effective, and they also hired a movie star as the spokesperson. It was a first-time spokesperson for the movie star, and she was very beautiful and had a good temperament, which made people more attracted to her. So everyone went to show their support.
Gu Qingshi's beauty product was hit like this, and the impact was not small. It was still early for the TV drama advertisement, so she just prepared as usual. As a result, the other party did this, and she was caught off guard and fell into disadvantage.
For a while, everyone only knew about Beauty Face. When they met, they would discuss Beauty Face. They were proud to be able to use Beauty Face. Because Beauty Face lipstick came in several colors, there was an inexplicable trend of collecting all the lipstick colors.
The packaging of the Beauty Mask is novel and elegant, and looks really fashionable, and it was the talk of the town for a while.
Gu's original loyal customers were also attracted by the beauty noodles. They all went to buy the beauty noodles and no longer patronized Gu's. For a time, Gu's business was greatly affected.
The impact of this wave was too great. No one bought the carefully promoted beauty products. Bai Xue was a little anxious and discussed with Gu Qingshi, "Sister, how about we increase the publicity? Invite another female star. We can afford to hire stars now."
The scope of Gu's business is now getting wider and wider, and it is growing slowly. It is no longer as unknown as before, so it is still possible to hire a celebrity.
Gu Qingshi thought for a moment and shook his head, "No, wait a little longer, let me take a look. Xiaoxue, have someone buy all the beauty products. Buy a set and bring it back. I'll take a look."
Bai Xue calmed down because of Gu Qingshi's calmness, "Okay."
Bai Xue quickly bought back all the products of the beauty mask, her face was very serious, "Sister, they have launched a new set of products, called the Little Green Bottle, which has a similar effect to our whitening cream, saying that it can improve skin tone and brighten and whiten, but the price is several times that of our whitening cream."
The packaging of this set of products launched by Beauty Noodles looks very expensive, and the price is indeed very expensive.
When Gu Qingshi saw the expensive price, he was very curious and wanted to know the specific effects. It happened that the store hired two twin girls who looked exactly the same except that they were tanned. Gu Qingshi thought about it and let the elder sister use Gu's whitening cream and the younger sister use the beauty face products to compare the effects.
While letting them try, Gu Qingshi kept an eye on the beauty's face.
The rejuvenating makeup series launched by Gu's recovered a lot after being impacted by the beauty mask for a few days, but it was still no match for the beauty mask. For a time, the beauty mask was the only one in the limelight.
Seeing how well the product was promoted, Beauty Noodles started to re-promote the small green bottle model.
The little green bottle is very expensive, but because of good advertising, the sales volume was very good in the end. However, Gu Qingshi shook his head when he saw it, "It's too expensive, not worth the price."
Gu Qingshi was very interested in the little green bottle at first, but after the twins used it, he found that its effect was actually very limited. Although it can indeed whiten and brighten the skin, its effect is not as good as whitening cream.
Not long after Gu Qingshi said this, among those who had been praising the Beauty Mask and the Little Green Bottle, there finally were different voices. They all said that the Little Green Bottle was too expensive and its effect was not worth the price at all.
It’s better to buy whitening cream instead of spending so much money. The price of whitening cream is very affordable. You can buy ten bottles of whitening cream with the price of one small green bottle.
These words were originally said in private, but they were soon reported in the newspapers because someone took the small green bottle to a department store to ask for an explanation, saying that the effect was not obvious and wanted a refund.
It was impossible to get a refund, so the customer accused the beauty mask of deceiving people. The matter became a big deal and was reported in the newspaper.
And this was just the beginning. Soon more and more people joined the crusade series. Except for a small number of people who didn't care about the money, many people who bought the little green bottle made a great determination to finally buy a set. However, the results were not satisfactory, so they were naturally dissatisfied.
But the people at Beauty Mian don’t understand and think that consumers are being unreasonable. Their little green bottle is so effective and so many people abroad think it’s good, so why doesn’t it work here?
There was a huge conflict between the two parties. Meirenmian refused to return the product and the consumers were also dissatisfied, saying that it would be better to buy Gu's whitening cream.
The little green bottle was just the beginning. Later, Beauty Face's cosmetics also began to be criticized. The reason was that Beauty Face's products looked good, but when they were actually put on, they always looked not so good.
Especially after the comparison with Gu’s beauty makeup, it’s like a whitening cream.
Before, everyone got carried away and thought that things from abroad must be better than those from home, especially when the price difference was so huge. You get what you pay for, and they thought that if Beauty Mask was so much more expensive than Gu’s, then it must be better and have better effects.
But after using it, I found that it seemed not to be the case. At the beginning of makeup, everyone thought that they might not be able to put it on, but the little green bottle no longer exists. It is so expensive, why is it not as good as whitening cream!
After they stopped blindly bragging, everyone woke up and discovered more truth.
Beauty products are not bad, but they are not suitable for everyone, only for a certain group of people. They are designed for the local people, so they are not suitable for the domestic environment.
At first, it looks novel and you can praise it with your eyes closed, but this thing cannot be compared. When compared with Gu’s beauty products, you will find that it is very terrible.
Some people who use Gu's cosmetics are die-hard consumers, while some have limited financial resources and can only buy Gu's products. At first, they envied those with beautiful faces, but later they found that there was no need to envy them too much, as they always seemed to look better when they put on makeup.
The powders of Gu Qingshi Beauty, whether pearl powder or liquid foundation and lipstick, are all designed for the yellow skin in China. Although the varieties and colors are not as many as those of Beauty Face, the few available are enough. Listen to the recommendations of the store clerks and the effects are very good.
After using it, people will feel more energetic and look better, but it is not as exaggerated as beauty mask. It can be used in daily life. It can be said to be very practical and easy to use.
Beauty suppressed the Gu family for a month, but the Gu family quietly began to counterattack.
