Chapter 810: Chapter 289: Bad Guy, Stay Away!
After coming back from Shenghai, it’s back to the daily grind.
I met up with Tao Min, and my interactions with this senior on QQ have become increasingly lively, though we just chat about life as friends.
Dingsheng Mansion, New Era headquarters.
"Zelin, later Yuwei and I are going shopping for clothes, do you want to join?"
After work, Qin Shiqing approached Su Zelin and said.
Having been at New Era for over half a month now, their relationship is quite harmonious, and now Song Yuwei has become her good friend at the company.
The rascal couldn’t help but smile inwardly.
In a past life, my childhood sweetheart left because of a scandal with Song Yuwei, who knew they’d end up hanging out together this time.
"I’ll pass. Shopping and buying stuff is a hobby for you girls, I, as a manly man, don’t want to get involved!"
Su Zelin politely declined. Firstly, he found shopping boring, and secondly, Nanaz needed to discuss something with him.
"Oh, come on, boss, you’re just lazy! Even when it comes to accompanying your girlfriend shopping, you find it a hassle. You’re not a very competent boyfriend, are you!"
Song Yuwei secretly complained, also slyly implying some criticism.
Because they are both the rascal’s girlfriends, but Qin Shiqing still thought the assistant was referring to herself.
"Forget it, Yuwei, let’s leave him alone. He’s just like that, sometimes quite uninteresting!"
Qin Shiqing seemed to have formed a girlfriend alliance with Song MM, singing in harmony.
"In that case, you’ll have to manage dinner yourself!"
Su Zelin chuckled: "Hehe, don’t worry, someone’s treating me to dinner tonight."
Qin Shiqing wasn’t too concerned, knowing her boyfriend’s position, he often has lots of dinners and social events.
"Alright then, but if you drink, don’t drive, safety first!"
Qin Shiqing reminded him twice, then she and Song Yuwei left.
Watching the two women leave, Su Zelin felt it a bit absurd.
If the Qin Shiqing from a past life time-traveled here and saw this scene, who knows what she’d think.
"How does it feel?"
At this moment, someone walked into the office, it was Yan Qiuwen.
Every day after work, it’s the daily Q&A game session.
Su Zelin knew she was referring to the feeling of seeing two girlfriends hanging out together.
"Is this today’s question?"
Su Zelin asked back.
"Yes!"
Yan Qiuwen nodded.
"It’s alright, quite good, it’d be nice if it could stay like this forever."
Su Zelin stroked his chin.
"Scumbag!"
Even though she knew the rascal was just that kind of person, Yan Qiuwen couldn’t help but snort coldly before twisting her waist and leaving the office.
Su Zelin was baffled.
Yan Qiuwen knows him through and through, and is still willing to be an advisor, but she occasionally feels displeased about it.
Could it be that it’s that time of the month?
But she’s really exceptionally smart.
Having a woman like her coordinate in his harem could definitely make him rest easy.
Of course, it’s just an idea that stops at thinking.
She doesn’t love him, nor will she lose her mind over love.
...
Nanaz’s company isn’t very far from Dingsheng Mansion, it took ten minutes to get there.
This place is called China World Trade Center, it’s a commercial-residential space, with offices on lower floors and residences on higher floors.
Su Zelin had visited several times before, casually parking his Passat in the underground parking lot and taking the elevator to the eighth floor.
After a few steps, he saw the large sign saying "Lina Apparel."
As a newly established small company, it’s incomparable to the New Era headquarters.
The entire floor only rented a small portion, and there are several other companies.
The office space is very limited, less than two hundred square meters, with a staff of less than ten, not even a receptionist.
Lina Apparel focuses on being an online brand, for now not planning offline business, so there’re hardly any visitors. There’s no need for a receptionist, if a guest does come, just find a well-spoken employee to host them.
The design team consists of only three people, Ding Linna herself acts as the General Manager and Designer, and she hired two female designers, both in their twenties and fashionably dressed young women.
Lina Apparel aims to become a youth fashion brand.
The so-called fashion brand means an original brand, with innovative design language, showcasing the designer’s unique taste and attitude towards life, thus appealing to young people who pursue individuality.
Domestic fashion brands began to develop around 2000, still niche in the consumer market.
However, fashion brand fans are highly loyal, these clothes sell expensive and with high profit, the main selling point being the design rather than the fabric’s high-end comfort.
And domestic fashion brands are still rare, mainly over in Xiangjiang.
For example, in 2003 Teacher Chen founded "CLOT" on Hong Kong Island, selling fashion items worldwide and starting their own product line the following year.
Even though fashion brands are niche, the market gap is not small. Due to low competition, if Lina succeeds, surfing this trend, domestic fashionistas will increase, making money would actually be simple.
Youth and individuality are the themes of fashion brands, so hiring designers can’t be old folks with conservative ideas, the design team is even fresh graduates, with no work experience, but all are fashion-forward individuals.
A few young people gathering together make it easier to spark ideas.
Many giant groups were indeed founded like this, a few founders extremely interested in a certain field clicked, started working together, then the company gradually developed.
Additionally, there is an Operations Director, clerks, and assistants, overall the team structure is streamlined to the utmost.
