Hiring a Brand Ambassador

“Do you know what Zhao Qibing is trying to achieve? Could it be that he is following your footsteps, boss?” Fatty Lai felt that something was wrong as he asked.

“It seems like he had lost too much recently. The slums relocation project didn’t go well too. He probably didn’t earn a lot from it so he wanted to earn more money by all means.” Lin Yi was able to guess what was in Zhao Qibing’s mind. That Yaowang truly has some medical skills. Anyway, things are like that- one is willing to give while the other one is willing to take and besides, it has nothing to do with us!”

“Yeah, ignore them then. They have nothing to do with us!” Fatty Lai nodded.

In actuality, no matter how active Zhao Qibing was in the city, as long as he didn’t offend Lin Yi, Lin Yi wouldn’t even give two shits to whatever he was doing because he had better and more important things to deal with. For instance, Miracle Doctor Guan company was going to release their very first product into the market soon.

“Just forget about him. Do you have something to discuss with me?” Lin Yi was rather free in these few days. Tangyun’s house issue was settled, Zhong Pinliang and An Jianwen were probably still in the hospital, and while Zhao Qibing hadn’t given him much trouble too lately, even Zou Ruoguang almost wet his pants seeing him in the school as if he was more terrifying than his own father. Thus, Lin Yi was able to be at ease these days.

Other than just accompanying the Miss and Shu to school and meeting Tangyun during the break time, he had nothing to do- it was some happy go lucky days.

This was what Lin Yi had been longing for- no fights, no wars, protecting the people he loved and enjoying every second of his peaceful life.

Lin Yi didn’t know how long this peace could last. If it was possible, he wished that this could go on forever.

Even if life was a bed of roses now and made Lin Yi comfortable, he never put his guard down as he knew that leaving Yu Kun alive was still a bad decision like setting a tiger free back to the mountain. Although House Yu was quiet now, future trouble was surely inevitable. It was just a matter of time until House Yu was going to come for him.

As for Zhao Qibing, Lin Yi didn’t believe that he wouldn’t look for revenge, either. Who knew that he would come out with a silly idea and come for him again?

“Exactly, our very first product, the Injury Medicine, is ready to be on sales in the market anytime now.” Fatty Lai replied. “But we didn’t do any ceremony when we opened our company. Despite the fact that the Miracle Doctor Guan Medicine company is very famous in society, we still have to conduct a new product conference for our new product!”

“Conference? For real?” Lin Yi didn’t know that launching a new product required so many processes.

“Yeah, actually this is just a way to show the capability of a company. It was the same for Qibing Real Estate company. They had to conduct an opening ceremony on the first day.” Fatty Lai was an expert in the business field so it was natural for him to speak this fluently with logic and example. “The problem was just that we were the one who sabotaged their opening ceremony.”

“I see, I’ll let you handle this.” Lin Yi felt like he was useless in this field, he knew nothing about business and operating a company, if it wasn’t Fatty Lai, he believed that he and Guan Xuemin wouldn’t be able to handle this company in the slightest.

“Okay, I’ll see what I can do about it.” Fatty Lai nodded. “Our company has been in the spotlight for a while. It’s the ideal time for us to enter the market now. Once our product is released into the market, the media will surely give us some free advertisement….. But, according to many big companies’ way of doing things, they would normally hire a celebrity to hype things up….”

“Celebrity? Do you know one?” Lin Yi was disinterested with those things, and he didn’t watch TV shows often. To him, the two beauties in the house were way cuter than those celebrities.

“Nope….” Fatty Lai smiled bitterly. “But you know there’s a saying. Money will make the Devil turn millstone? As long as we are willing to pay, hiring a brand ambassador is just easy-peasy.

“Oh, you decide yourself then.” Lin Yi shrugged his shoulder.

“Boss, do you have any preference in your mind?” Fatty Lai knew that many companies hired a brand ambassador not just to promote their company’s product but to meet their idol as the founders of the company were a big fan of the celebrity themselves. Thus, Fatty Lai asked Lin Yi if he had someone he wanted or what.

“Preference?” Lin Yi shrugged his shoulder again- he had no idea about celebrities, how could he name one? However, a name flashed into his mind suddenly. “Is there a celebrity named Xu Shihan?”

Lin Yi remembered that the Miss and Shu requested him to buy Xu Shihan’s latest album last time and he had seen them watching Xu Shihan’s live concert on the TV shows. He remembered the performance she performed on the stage: a rather angelic girl dancing and singing. It was indeed a pleasant-looking young girl. However, who knew what she would look like when the makeup was removed?

“Ah—— there is!” Fatty Lai was flabbergasted at the name and nodded after a second. “Boss, Xu Shihan is a top-notch singing idol….”

Fatty Lai started calculating silently in his mind. How much would it cost to hire a brand ambassador like Xu Shihan? Xu Shihan’s popularity was crazy at this moment- many middle schoolers were a fan of her and her net worth and condition were absolutely not low, either! However, since Lin Yi had mentioned the name out, he had to do his best.

“Oh, hire her then.” Lin Yi didn’t know how good Xu Shihan was so he didn’t really care about it. He only wanted to hire her because of the Miss, Shu, and Tangyun. They were all her fans so he tried to have the singer here to play with them. As for Lin Yi, he didn’t know about celebrities so it was natural for him not to be part of the singer’s fandom.

“Okay, I’ll try my best!” Fatty Lai nodded and jotted down the name. “Right, Boss. During the conference day, would you be available?”

“Me? Never mind.” Lin Yi shook his head. Formally, he made this medical company just for fun and to earn some pocket money but now that the Miss’, Shu’s, and his “friendship” was getting deeper and deeper, Lin Yi no longer felt like he was lodging under people’s roofs. Although he might not know if that was considered as a friendship or not, the point was that the Miss was not looking down at him like how she previously used to. Besides, the Miss didn’t put much value on the concept of money, either.

Hence, this medical company became a company that only focused on public welfare instead of earning money. To start earning money from the first go was impossible as the price of the medicine was set to the minimum- it was the total opposite of what Miracle Doctor Kang company was doing.

Fatty Lai knew that Lin Yi wanted to remain a low profile so after he got rejected by him, he didn’t insist him to join. “Boss, I’ve arranged the posts for Kang Xiaobo and Fen. Do you want to have a look?”

“Tell me about it.” There was still another reason for Lin Yi to open this company and that reason was for Kang Xiaobo and Fen. Lin Yi didn’t have many friends and Kang Xiaobo was one of them so he would like to help him as much as he could.
