Kicked out of a wealthy family? I became a rich and beautiful woman thanks to the system.

Chapter 215 Poaching Again

"Okay, tell them to hurry up."

After Wen Yao finished giving her instructions, Tang Zhen left.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and June is fast approaching. So far, Mingcuifang has a total of 150 offline stores and Mingzhenfang has a total of 60 offline stores.

Both brands are positioned as high-end jewelry, so it's not advisable to have too many stores. Now it might be time to consider opening stores overseas.

That evening, Wen Yao was pondering this matter when Cheng Chen sent her a message.

"Miss Wen, filming for the movie has wrapped up tonight."

Wen Yao said with delight

When will it be released?

"It will take at least five months, because we still need to edit it and then send it over for review."

Wen Yao looked at the time; five months was too long. But there was nothing she could do now. If she wanted a good release, she had to do meticulous editing.

"However, we can promote it one or two months in advance, and then arrange for the main cast and crew to appear on variety shows or do a live online broadcast together."

Wen Yao had seen both of these promotional methods.

"Okay, I'll have the company arrange it then."

Then, the two stopped chatting.

The next day, after the month-end meeting, Tang Zhen reported the work of each subsidiary company in the previous month to Wen Yao.

"Chairman, three male artists under Sapphire Entertainment have become regular guests on a variety show, and a female artist successfully joined the cast last month."

These artists were signed previously. Although their resources are not as good as Xu Si'an and Lin Xian's, such resources are scarce after all, and the company has arranged other activities for them.

"Mingcuifang's sales continued to grow steadily, with a profit of 14 billion last month, a year-on-year increase of 20%."

Mingzhenfang's sales are also very impressive, with a profit of 8.5 million last month.

If this growth trend continues, we estimate that the combined profits of the two brands could exceed 200 billion this year.

Going from 0 to 10 is difficult, but going from 10 to 100 is much easier.

Wen Yao smiled upon hearing this.

"Tell the employees of these two brands that if sales reach 200 billion this year, the company will invite everyone to a team-building trip to Country L at the end of the year."

The cost of team building in Country L is not low; it's not something other company bosses are willing to pay.

"Okay, I'll go tell them now."

Tang Zhen happily went out with her computer in her arms.

At this point, the Ming Group had just finished its summary for the previous month.

Ming Shun was trembling with anger in the meeting room.

He pushed the documents on the table onto the floor with a clatter.

"What use are you to the group? I've spent so much money! And sales have actually decreased instead of increased!"

The other executives in the conference room held their breath and dared not say a word.

"Have they all gone mute?! They're usually so talkative, why is nobody speaking now?"

The sales manager, unable to withstand the pressure, weakly spoke up.

"Chairman, Mingfu Jewelry has just changed its style, and the target audience is changing accordingly. It will be fine in a few months."

Ming Shun's gaze was fixed on him, and it was like a razor blade piercing his heart.

"A few months? Our company spends so much money on marketing every day, and we have to support this entire company. You're telling me to wait a few months? Can you use your own money to pay everyone's salaries during those months? Do you think the group's money grows on trees?!"

The sales manager's lips were trembling, shaking.

"I'm sorry, Chairman."

"Did I ask you to speak just to apologize? If I don't see a workable solution within a week, you're going home too."

And for the design department, get me a new batch of people.

With a wave of his hand, Ming Shun announced that the design department would be replaced again, and this time the intern he fired didn't even have an internship certificate.

After the meeting, Mingshun had his people follow the clues and find Wen Yao's supplier, Liu Yiqing.

This time, he set his sights on Wen Yao's suppliers again, and once again sent his assistant alone to poach them.

Recently, Mingfu Jewelry's sales have not increased, and the assistant has been on edge, not daring to relax. He would get scolded if he was not careful. Today, he was asked to poach employees from other companies by himself.

The assistant had been traveling all day and finally arrived at Pearl Island. It was already evening.

"Hello, are you Mr. Liu?"

Liu Yiqing was busy at this moment

"It's me. Are you here to buy pearls? I'm sorry, all my pearls are sold out."

Liu Yiqing assumed that the young man had come to buy pearls. After all, before she met Wen Yao, many people had bought pearls from her, but they usually bought one or two pearls, or one or two oysters.

"No, you misunderstand. I'm not here to buy pearls. I'm a staff member of Mingfu Jewelry. This is my business card."

Since the last failure, the assistant has become more and more low-key and is not as confident as before in poaching people. Although Mingfu Jewelry has a good reputation, the boss is really stingy when it comes to paying people, and even he is tempted by the benefits and treatment offered by Wen Yao.

Liu Yiqing quickly wiped her hands with a handkerchief and then accepted the business card.

"Mingfu Jewelry."

Seeing Liu Yiqing's reaction, the assistant almost thought she had a chance.

"Yes, it's Mingfu Jewelry. It seems you know our brand quite well."

"I know more than just know. My family used to supply Mingfu Jewelry. You probably weren't even born yet back then. Then there was a period when my family couldn't produce any good pearls, so Mingfu Jewelry switched to another supplier."

Upon hearing this, the assistant's face turned red instantly, and he almost wanted to disappear into the ground. He forced himself to speak the rest of the way.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Liu, there might have been a misunderstanding at the time."

"It's alright, I understand. You big businesses definitely need the best products. But there's one thing I don't understand: why are you using freshwater pearls? Logically speaking, your jewelry is so expensive, you should be using saltwater pearls. What you're doing is definitely not right."

Liu Yiqing didn't feel it was presumptuous; she was simply offering her advice to the assistant from a consumer's perspective.

The assistant was even more embarrassed.

He knew that Mingfu Jewelry used freshwater pearls, which was a point of criticism against Mingfu Jewelry. Although many people attacked them for this reason, many people were still willing to buy Mingfu Jewelry, so Ming Shun never changed it.

“We know we were wrong, which is why I came to you. Mr. Liu, you sell seawater pearls, so we hope you can continue to supply us in the future.”

Liu Yiqing smiled.

"That won't work now. I'm supplying another jewelry brand called Mingzhenfang."
