Dont Turn From Summer Chapter 22 (2/2)
On the sa his work, Lin Mochen gazes at the sparkling lights outside theand takes out his cellphone
“Where are you?”
Mu Hanxia answers in the phone, “Why, I’m in the company”
Lin Mochen is silent for a second and then speaks in a cold voice, “Mu Hanxia, I hire you to coer, shouldn’t you report your progress to your boss everyday? Do you possibly plan to be left alone and perish on your own in my company?”
Mu Hanxia is silent for a long while before she replies, “I see I’ the head of a department I will make improvements in the future”
“What are you doing in the coain
“I’ether and report to you soon”
Lin Mochen hangs up the phone
The night is deep A fullfar away surrounding the moon Lin Mochen pushes the coht on her desk in the darkness of the roo hi not noticed him at all
Lin Mochen looks down at his watch: 11:50
He approaches her slowly
She coughs lightly a little, ht But her eyes are glued to the screen, fingers dancing rapidly on the keyboard She is loosely covered in a jacket On the desk, apart from the stacks of documents and files, there’s an empty fast food lunchbox She looks very concentrated and steady, engrossed in her work
This scene looks familiar Lin Mochen is reminded of himself in the past
It hen he freshly graduated froe and was still in the US He tried his hand at challenging the fruit business leader in New York When the fight was the most fierce, his company was cut off utility, his eot threat mails Those who started up with him were raduated Chinese young round at all
At that tihts when he worked alone in his office until late into the night It was a light like this, it was also a suit jacket covering hi or nobody else could enter his mind
He stops behind her As if feeling so, she turns around slowly Lin Mochen puts his hands on her shoulders, which scares her to a shudder Lin Mochen chuckles: “What to be afraid of? Afraid of being checked on by the boss?”
Mu Hanxia realizes it’s hirily: “Lin Mochen! You scared me to death!”
Lin Mochen chuckles again His eye turns to the screen: “What precious ideas are you writing?”
His hands are still on her shoulders, neither too light nor too heavy, the fingers long and slender Mu Hanxia sees the its wings lightly in her heart She turns her eye to the screen and says, “I have three conclusions But they must all have been in your plan already”
“Tell me”
“First, I’ve investigated Currently in Beijing’s ions and towns, even though there are a few brands that are sih influence on the market Some of them have less than satisfactory qualities, some others sell products of other styles and have asystem That is to say, there hasn’t been anyone who precisely calibrates on the sah to be a competitor So, we are the first one”
“M”
It is so quiet around and the light is hazy Only their voices, one asking and the other answering, are heard in the deserted space It feels kind of unreal
Mu Hanxia points to the rams and charts on the screen and says, “Second, these are the data of the styles, prices, and targeting custo brands in the market The sources are some industry analysis reports and the industry research data fro the brands in the nation, the high-end brands are very high and their prices are also high They are mostly business and professional styles The middle ones are mostly casual wear, not very fashi+onable, nor very reliable in quality But their prices are siher than us No need to mention the low-end ones But the est portion of our ive more attention to the feel of fashi+on The clothes with 100 to a few hundred yuan in price will sell a office eest space for profit”
“Third, ” She glances at his silhouette on the desk, “I went to take a look at the store you are preparing To tell the truth, I’ht you wouldand rent in the most expensive department store, while the finish is so simple and neat I can’t tell what’s so nice about it in my word, but when I stepped in, I just felt at home, and kind of novel Also, this kind of finish must have saved quite soht?”
Mu Hanxia turns to look at him
Lin Mochen eyes her quietly
He knows that she is smart and acute But his plans are all clear to her after she only takes a few glances into the industry
He smiles quietly, and then says, “You said so h”
Mu Hanxia is taken aback, “What?”
“Didn’t you already discover it when you were in Le Ya?”
Mu Hanxia feels lost in a fog As they are very close to each other, and he is standing behind her, she al fast, “I don’t understand”
He replies, “For all businesses, in all pursuits for profit, there’s only one law for the winner: establishi+ng the shortest and et custoot it yet? I only produce the products et customers are most interested in and are in most need of I put the store where they can most possibly see, and use the warehouse layout to reduce the cost of ht products to the custoest possible profit from it It has no difference from the almost successful lychee business you had at Le Ya, orfruits in the US in the past”
Mu Hanxia is stunned And he gazes at her After a moment, she suddenly smiles, and nods, “Now I understand Wait, let rab the notebook and pen and scribbles quickly
A light hint of s colors in her eyes and the curve of her bending neck The skin at the neck is fair and clean, with a little soft baby fat
Lin Mochen raises his hand and gives her neck a light stroke with his finger
Mu Hanxia freezes a little, feeling the nuer touched and spreads rapidly to the whole neck, even the whole body
She is motionless
Lin Mochen’s low and deep voice rings at her ear, “Any other questions?”
“Mmm Let me see”
The dark night and the di feels soht, at this little corner of this enor on about profit- the ambitions in their heart This feels so real and so close
