Chapter 560

~7 min read 1,274 words

The editor-in-chief of the Youth Daily is named Du Mei, who is about forty years old. That exquisite face seems to have been forgotten by time, leaving not a single trace.

She sat behind the desk, and you couldn't see her lower body, but just looking at the curves above, her figure must be very hot.

"Knock, knock, knock..."

Du Mei was reading a manuscript. Hearing the door knock, she raised her head and shouted: "Come in!"

The office door was pushed open, and Du Youwei walked in with a grin.

Seeing Du Youwei's grinning face, Du Mei tapped her forehead: "As soon as you smile like this, I know there's nothing good."

"This time it's definitely a good thing!" Du Youwei gently closed the door, "Didn't you always say that the two Colas acquiring domestic beverage factories is a wolf's ambition?

A friend of mine wrote a very targeted manuscript, which can be described as pearls of wisdom in every word, hitting the nail on the head. After I finished reading it, I immediately decided to bring it to you to see."

Du Mei rolled her eyes: "Cut that out. 'Your friend', is it someone who entrusted someone to find you again?"

"No!" Du Youwei said: "The manuscript was written by Zhou Andong."

"Zhou Andong?" Du Mei became interested at once, "Bring it to me."

Du Youwei put the manuscript on the desk, then habitually picked up a teacup and poured herself a cup of tea.

Du Mei picked up the manuscript, glanced at the title, and then read on. This reading lasted for twenty minutes; clearly, she didn't just read it once.

"Whew!"

Du Mei let out a long breath, slowly raised her head, and said seriously: "He wants to publish it in our Youth Daily?"

Du Youwei said: "Guan Shengjie gave me the manuscript. I think it would be a pity if this manuscript couldn't be published."

Du Mei leaned back in her chair, looking up at the ceiling, her slender fingers tapping rhythmically on the armrest.

Du Youwei wasn't in a hurry either, holding her teacup, crossing her legs, looking very content.

After a while, Du Mei threw the manuscript forward: "Typeset it, publish it tomorrow."

Du Youwei giggled, darted over in two steps, picked up the manuscript, and left. Just as she opened the door, she heard Du Mei say.

"Your grandma is making dumplings tonight, have her ask you to go back and eat with me."

"OK!" Du Youwei made an OK gesture.

"This girl!" Du Mei shook her head slightly.

Coca-Cola China Headquarters, Kaiyuan Building.

Jiang Yuping, Zhao Hongxing, Kyle, and several other senior executives were holding a meeting, but the expressions on their faces looked very serious, lacking the previous ease.

"This Zhou Andong is too capable of causing trouble." Kyle slapped the table in hatred, "This whole period has been full of reports about him. If this continues, it will be very unfavorable for us."

Jiang Yuping's face didn't look too good: "Kyle, how are our preparations?"

Kyle said: "Everything is arranged. All cities, including county-level cities, whether it's advertising or promotional activities, will start simultaneously tomorrow."

The bearded foreigner said: "Fortunately, we made preparations in advance, otherwise we would really be caught off guard by the other side, and the losses would be too great."

Zhao Hongxing said with a gloomy face: "Let's see the effect first. If it doesn't work, throw money, throw money hard, increase promotions. I don't believe that he, a small Jiangzhou Winery, can have that much money to throw in and compete with us on promotions."

A fat foreigner said: "Pepsi's advertising and promotions will also start tomorrow along with us."

A youth in his thirties said: "I don't think there's anything to worry about. No matter how Zhou Andong tosses and turns, his beverage is also a new brand. Both in terms of financial resources and brand awareness, it cannot be compared to us.

Besides, he is confronting both Coke and Pepsi at the same time. I think this is not business competition, but suicide."

Hearing the youth's words, the atmosphere in the conference room relaxed a lot. They also felt that they were a bit overly sensitive.

A smile appeared on Zhao Hongxing's face: "Not bad, confronting us and Pepsi at the same time, Zhou Andong is just committing suicide."

Jiang Yuping also kept persuading herself that in the face of the two Colas' strong financial resources and awareness, Zhou Andong couldn't win, but she always had a sense of unease in her heart.

Zhao Hongxing said: "Does anyone else have any questions?"

Jiang Yuping opened her mouth, but in the end, said nothing, because everything that should be done had been done; saying more was useless, just wait for the war to start tomorrow. ……

At Jiangzhou Winery, the bell for getting off work rang outside, and the factory broadcast played the song 'Blue and White Porcelain' again.

Zhou Andong was just about to leave when Yao Jun walked in, beaming with joy.

Zhou Andong smiled as soon as he saw him: "Looks like there's good news, beaming with joy."

Yao Jun took a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes from his pocket and handed one to Zhou Andong.

"Yo!" Zhou Andong took the cigarette and teased: "Not bad, you've got some temper, smoking Zhonghua now."

Yao Jun grinned and took out a lighter to light it for Zhou Andong.

Zhou Andong sat there, looking at Yao Jun with a smile: "Tell me, what good news is there?"

Yao Jun scratched his head: "I'm getting married."

"Ah?"

Zhou Andong blinked. Another mistake had occurred, damn it. If he remembered correctly, because of the obstruction of Tang Wenjuan's family, they wouldn't get married until two years later.

But thinking about it, he was relieved. With Yao Jun's current status and position, as long as the Tang family wasn't stupid, they would definitely hold on tight and settle things early to feel at ease.

"I'm getting married." Thinking Zhou Andong didn't hear clearly, Yao Jun said it again.

Zhou Andong came back to his senses, then laughed out loud, got up, and hugged Yao Jun: "Good, good, hearing that you're getting married, I'm truly happy in my heart."

Yao Jun was very moved: "Brother Dong, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have today, and it would be even more impossible to get the approval of Wenjuan's parents so easily."

He had deep personal experience; when he first fell in love with Tang Wenjuan and her parents found out, they never gave him a good look.

But after he became the head of the security section, the attitude of Tang Wenjuan's parents took a 180-degree turn.

When he became the head of the group's security department, his status in the Tang family could be described as stable as Mount Tai; the future father-in-law and mother-in-law were almost ready to worship him.

Zhou Andong patted Yao Jun's shoulder heavily: "We're brothers, don't say these things. Whatever day it is, it must be grand."

Yao Jun said: "May 1st, the hotel is booked at the city guesthouse. I think that place is big enough and has face."

Zhou Andong said: "Alright, have you found an emcee?"

Yao Jun was stunned: "What emcee?"

Zhou Andong said irritably: "Wedding host."

Yao Jun shook his head: "No!"

Zhou Andong asked: "When are you taking wedding photos?"

Yao Jun said: "I'll go take them in the next two days."

Zhou Andong said with a smile: "How about this, I'll host your wedding for you, for free, no money, how about that, is that enough of a gesture?"
