Chapter 375 Her Skin Got Better
Liu Ran became more and more excited as she spoke by the campfire.
Su Ya also joined Liu Ran's discussion camp.
Soon, the women started chattering about blind boxes and surprises.
Chen Yang sat on the side, continuing to eat the weasel meat, feeling speechless. They had agreed to come for a picnic and not talk about work, but his workaholic wife was already excitedly designing the future development of the company on the first night.
Chen Yang couldn't be bothered to participate. After a delicious meal, he lay on the roof of the car to rest.
Seeing the wild boar charge in and die instantly, the distant wolf pack, despite their hunger, didn't dare to approach further. After a while, they slowly dispersed.
Liu Ran and the others discussed until past one in the morning. They nestled in the two cars and slept simply.
The next morning, the women got up and stretched.
Su Ya rubbed her eyes and said with some surprise, "Huh, it's really strange. We slept so late last night, and we had to curl up in our seats to sleep. But now I feel energetic and full of vitality. It's so strange."
Lin Xiaoli, Lin Yueyu, and the other women nodded, all expressing their surprise.
Lin Yueyu smiled and said, "I used to not be able to get up until after nine o'clock, but today I woke up early in the morning and feel full of energy. What's going on?"
"Could it be because of the weasel meat we ate yesterday?"
After the women discussed it, they immediately nodded, believing it was indeed the weasel meat.
At this time, Liu Ran had already circled the amusement park and returned.
Liu Ran had changed the most. Her physical strength was average before, but this morning, Liu Ran clearly felt as if she had become a superhero. She had run several kilometers on the hillside without feeling tired at all; instead, she felt refreshed.
Liu Ran waved to Su Ya and smiled, "It's really strange, I feel full of energy this morning."
Su Ya stared at Liu Ran's face and nodded, "Damn, Junior Sister Liu Ran... your skin has gotten even better."
"Before, the skin on your chin was slightly yellowish, likely from being forced to work at the docks and getting tanned. But today, your entire face is as white as jade. This is too exaggerated!"
"Did you eat too much of that weasel meat yesterday, which not only improved your stamina but also your skin?"
The other women looked at Liu Ran and were filled with envy.
Then, the women simultaneously turned to look at the remaining half of the weasel and all laughed.
They clenched their fists, "We're having this weasel meat today, not giving it to Chen Yang."
Su Ya nodded and said, "Right, right, right. Chen Yang already has good stamina, so let's eat it. We need to make our skin better."
Liu Xiaomei nodded and said, "Yes, Captain Chen is a man, so good skin is useless to him. Oh my, this weasel meat is amazing! It not only strengthens the body but also whitens the skin! We'll eat weasel for breakfast, lunch, and dinner today, and try to finish it all."
For the next two days, the group played in the mountains, eating grilled weasel and grilled wild boar, drinking sweet mountain spring water, and climbing all the nearby hills.
During their rest, the group excitedly discussed the surprise blind boxes again.
Three days later, Chen Yang and his group drove their two cars away from Donghuang Village Amusement Park and returned to Qingzhou City.
In the past three days, the sales of the slimming products had skyrocketed.
The Yangyangyang company had now formed its basic framework.
It engaged in live streaming sales and logistics, and also launched its own app ecosystem where users could freely discuss their experiences with Yangyangyang company's products.
After returning to her office, Liu Ran glanced at the backend sales figures, her jaw slightly dropping. She hadn't expected the slimming tea to sell so exceptionally well.
Of course, this had been a peak period. The slimming tea treatment course lasted over twenty days. After the next few days, sales were expected to decrease significantly.
Liu Ran calculated that her company's cash flow would reach tens of billions. This was mainly because the company's operating model was sound, with no debt. Having tens of billions of cash in the account made her feel a little guilty.
Liu Ran did not delay. She immediately convened a high-level company meeting and announced the execution of the next product—surprise blind boxes.
The surprise blind box product would not make any profit; it was purely intended to bring surprises to people, encourage them to download the Yangyangyang app, discuss these surprises, and to remark their age when purchasing blind boxes.
Generally, those born between 1960 and 1970 would be one group, and those between 1970 and 1980 another, and so on. Every ten years would constitute a group, and customers in each group would have different experiences of surprise.
Liu Ran then began to recruit a large number of product designers and also searched for quality factories throughout Qingzhou City to produce various surprise products.
In this way, Yangyangyang company drove significant employment in Qingzhou City and revitalized many small factories, creating numerous job opportunities.
Crucially, tax revenue also remained in Qingzhou City.
For a time, Zhou Sinian was truly satisfied with Yangyangyang company.
Previously, Zhou Sinian had supported Yangyangyang company entirely because of Chen Yang. Now, he realized that Yangyangyang company not only generated huge profits but also created numerous job opportunities and substantial fiscal revenue for Qingzhou City.
Soon, Yangyangyang company's surprise blind boxes were officially launched.
Since Yangyangyang company made no profit from this product, a blind box costing fifty yuan would inevitably contain a product worth fifty yuan, carefully selected by Yangyangyang company.
Suddenly, surprise blind boxes became objects of public adoration.
People were intensely discussing the various products inside the blind boxes on the Yangyangyang app.
Meanwhile, at the old Liu family residence in Qingzhou City, Granny Liu, Liu Xin, and Yang Long were having dinner at a table.
Liu Xin put down her chopsticks and said to Granny Liu, "Grandma, Brother Long and I are currently in charge of a very large project. The Yang family has invested over a billion yuan in a blind box product project, and Brother Long and I are now managing this company."
"The future sales of blind boxes will be excellent, so Grandma, would you like to invest some money as well? The dividends will be enough for you to give us red envelopes."
Everyone at the table burst into laughter.
Granny Liu looked at Liu Xin strangely and asked, "What company are you investing in? Blind boxes? What are blind boxes? Boxes for the blind? Are they boxes used to hold blind people?"
The crowd continued to laugh heartily.
Liu Xin said proudly, "Grandma, you don't understand. Blind box products are quite popular now. Each box looks the same."
"When you buy it, you don't know what's inside. It's like a lottery. For example, if you buy a blind box for one hundred yuan, you might get a product worth one hundred and fifty yuan! Of course, you might also get something worth twenty yuan."
"Moreover, many products can touch people's hearts. In short, Brother Long's family is putting a lot of effort into making this company bigger and stronger this time."
"Brother Long and I are also determined to make this venture a great success."
"Originally, the company didn't lack money, but if Grandma is willing to invest a few more hundred million, we can still accept it."
"When our company becomes popular, the dividends will be very generous."
