Reborn, back to a small county town to become a wealthy family

Chapter 807 More Profitable Cosmetic Medical Projects
After not seeing each other for a whole summer vacation, the little girl became especially clingy.

Even when waiters brought in drinks and fruit platters, she still clung to Luo Yang and refused to let go.

When the pool was ready for use, they even dragged Luo Yang into the changing room.

"Stop fooling around, your sister will be back soon."

"It's not like we haven't seen her before, we can just bring her along."

Jiang Xue clung to Luo Yang, saying, "It's been over a month since we last saw each other. I miss you so much."

That kind of energy is like a vixen's.

"Don't forget there are also waiters."

Luo Yang still had his senses. While pressing down on Jiang Xue's constantly writhing body, he listened intently to the sounds outside.

They were afraid that some waiter might be left in the private room.

"I don't care, I want it!"

Jiang Xue gently bit Luo Yang's earlobe and said coquettishly, "Didn't you just give those waitresses instructions? Do you think they would dare disobey the boss?"

Luo Yang: "."

Just now, it was clearly this young lady who exaggerated the situation, telling the waiter in the private room that Luo Yang was the big boss of this club.

"I said."

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Jiang Wen waited until the party on the second floor ended before returning to the private room.

It was more than an hour later.

He took Shen Jinglan with him on the way back.

"Wow, singing in the pool, you really know how to have fun."

Seeing her younger sister and Luo Yang soaking in the second-floor pool, Jiang Xue jokingly said with a smile, "It's just a little crowded, not lively enough. Should we call more people over?"

"Sis, this isn't a karaoke bar, there aren't any girls like that here."

Jiang Xue wasn't some clueless newbie, so she retorted jokingly, "Besides, you and Sister Jinglan are both great beauties. Wouldn't it be more lively if you changed into swimsuits and came to the pool? Why do we need to call on outsiders?"

She was an impatient person. After saying that, she got out of the pool, grabbed a towel from the side and wiped herself down a bit, then went barefoot down to the first floor.

"Sis, hurry up, I've already prepared your swimsuit."

Jiang Xue, while holding her sister's arm, said to Shen Jinglan, "Jinglan, you should come too, it'll be more fun with more people."

Jiang Wen grabbed her sister's hand.

"I'm not feeling well and can't go into the water for the next few days."

"Eh?"

Jiang Xue was stunned for a moment, then slapped her forehead: "Look at my memory! Our periods are only a few days apart. Oh dear, God help me, please don't let them cause trouble these next few days!"

She was still thinking about going to Hengdian World Studios tomorrow, where she could spend time with Luo Yang. If she ended up like her sister, that would be terrible.

"You."

Jiang Wen was amused by her sister's thought process and flicked her forehead with her finger.

"Ouch, that hurts!"

Jiang Xue pouted and turned to look at Shen Jinglan.

"We can't leave your sister downstairs alone, can we?"

Shen Jinglan also politely declined, saying, "Besides, I have to go down and inspect the area later. How about I go into the water with you next time I come over?"

"Then don't blame me!"

Jiang Xue didn't try to persuade her further, nor did she dwell on it. She turned around and went back to the pool on the second floor.

She deliberately leaned closer to Luo Yang, nestled in his arms, and defiantly picked up the microphone to sing the last line of the song she had requested.

Jiang Wen wasn't annoyed and sat down on the sofa with Shen Jinglan.

One was busy pouring wine, while the other took out a stack of business cards and placed them on the glass coffee table, spreading them all out.

They didn't sing, but whispered among themselves about what they had gained that night.

Less than half an hour later, Shen Jinglan said goodbye again and left the private room. Luo Yang released his arm from Jiang Xue, stood up and walked out of the pool.

We can't just leave Jiang Wen sitting downstairs drinking alone.

After drying himself off and wrapping himself in a towel, Luo Yang got down and sat down next to Jiang Wen.

"Is this all you've got for tonight?"

He dried his hair with the corner of a towel while glancing at the business cards on the glass coffee table; "They're all wine suppliers and distributors, and there don't seem to be many women?"

"Not many."

While pouring wine for Luo Yang, Jiang Wen replied, "I only met five female business owners tonight. Three of them are distributors who own their own wine shops, one is a shareholder and manager of the hotel, and the other is a friend of a supplier who enjoys collecting and drinking wine and works as a lawyer."

Have you analyzed and categorized the customer base of the medical aesthetics industry?

After thinking for a moment, Luo Yang decided to give Jiang Wen a pointer: "The group of women you met today will be the main customer base for beauty and skincare in the future, but for medical aesthetics, they are only a small part of it."

"Let me dry your hair."

Jiang Wen handed the wine glass to Luo Yang, then knelt down on the sofa and took the towel.

As she helped dry his hair, she smiled and said, "Teach me how."

"First, there's the medical aesthetics business that the client group you're trying to reach tonight needs. This group is mostly over thirty, has relatively high incomes, and their biggest demand is for anti-aging maintenance of various external organs."

Luo Yang took a small sip of his drink and continued, "Actually, the mid-to-high-end beauty salons scattered throughout Shanghai capture over 90% of the business. The chain medical aesthetic institutions I asked you to set up also need to capture this market share. Of course, due to the cost of establishing a medical aesthetic institution, we can only target the high-end market, which happens to be the most profitable segment of the beauty industry."

"I interned at several beauty salons during my senior year of college."

Because she was listening carefully, Jiang Wen slowed down her movements: "Many of the services offered by these institutions are very expensive, but the costs are also very high. For example, the IPL skin rejuvenation treatment, as far as I know, has a profit margin of over 60% for just one of these services. The profits of other high-priced services should not be much lower."

During that period, Jiang Wen worked at several beauty salons and was able to find out some inside information.

"Besides beauty treatments, there is another particularly lucrative project."

Luo Yang reached out and touched his hair, thinking it was about right, and then gestured to Jiang Wen that she didn't need to dry it anymore.

He put down his wine glass, lit a cigarette, and waited for Jiang Wen to sit up straight before continuing, "Plastic surgery will be a more profitable major category in the future."

Plastic surgery?

Jiang Wen was about to pick up a wine glass when she heard the term and paused for a moment.

"Isn't this very risky?" In her mind, plastic surgery carries a lot of risks, especially during this period when many women who love beauty fly to South Korea to get breast augmentation, rhinoplasty, and chin reduction, and news reports often mention cases of problems after the surgery.

Your understanding is a bit one-sided.

Luo Yang smiled and said, "Cosmetic surgery doesn't necessarily refer to procedures involving surgery or fillers. For example, single eyelids can be cut into double eyelids, eyebrow tattooing, hyaluronic acid injections, and skin whitening injections. Many minimally invasive procedures are considered cosmetic surgery."

Jiang Wen couldn't understand it yet, but in the future, as people's demand for medical aesthetics increased, the domestic medical aesthetics industry became increasingly popular.

There aren't many young women who haven't had cosmetic surgery.

How profitable are these kinds of cosmetic procedures?

Just look at the annual reports of several listed medical aesthetic companies, and you'll see that their gross profit margins reach 80% or even 90%, which is higher than that of Kweichow Moutai. You can imagine how large the profit margin is.

“Look into my eyes.”

Just then, Jiang Xue suddenly appeared.

She knelt on the sofa, wrapped her arms around Luo Yang's neck, and leaned against his back.

By this time, Jiang Xue had changed back into her dress and even took a shower, her body exuding the fragrance of shower gel.

The little girl ignored the fact that Luo Yang was talking to her sister about serious matters, leaned forward, and showed Luo Yang her eyes: "I have double eyelids, I was born with them, I don't need surgery, aren't they pretty?"

Luo Yang patted her head affectionately: "Sweetie, your sister and I are talking about serious business. We'll talk to you later."

Jiang Xue wasn't angry. She snuggled against Luo Yang's cheek like a kitten.

Jiang Wen glared at her younger sister, signaling her to behave.

"Honey, I understand what you mean by getting double eyelid surgery and eyebrow tattooing."

She asked with a hint of confusion, "What is a hyaluronic acid injection?"

"Hydrating injections deliver hyaluronic acid to the dermis to effectively lock in moisture, making the skin plump and full. At the same time, it can also whiten and rejuvenate the skin because the antioxidants in hyaluronic acid injections can reduce pigmentation, repair damaged skin, and make the skin brighter and more translucent."

Luo Yang had some basic knowledge in this area, so he explained roughly: "Because water-light injections go directly to the dermis, they stimulate the reactivation of fibroblasts, repairing the skin and making it firmer. For skin sagging caused by aging, water-light injections have a significant effect on firming and lifting."

He paused for a moment, thought for a moment, and then said, "Actually, this effect can improve wrinkles because water light injection can fill in sunken and sagging skin, effectively smoothing out fine lines, crow's feet, frown lines, etc., making the skin firm and elastic. This is extremely attractive to women around thirty years old, because women generally start to develop facial defects such as crow's feet from this age."

So, this project is targeted at customers over thirty years old?

After understanding, Jiang Wen thought for a moment and asked, "Does hyaluronic acid injection really have such good effects? Is this kind of cosmetic surgery technology available in China now?"

"This thing has been around since 09."

Luo Yang smiled and said, "Initially, the main focus is on stimulating collagen production. The minimally invasive injection process of hyaluronic acid injections activates the skin's self-repair mechanism, promotes collagen regeneration, thereby reducing superficial wrinkles and making the skin firmer."

"It must be very expensive if it works so well, right?"

After confirming that such cosmetic surgery procedures already existed on the market, Jiang Wen immediately considered the issue of price.

"It's not very expensive."

Luo Yang shrugged and said, "This thing only lasts for 3 to 6 months with one course of treatment. It's a routine beauty and skincare treatment, so the price won't be too outrageous. At least middle-class and above incomes can support this kind of consumption."

Jiang Wen's eyes lit up immediately.

"Honey, it seems I need to seriously learn about the entire cosmetic surgery industry."

She pursed her lips and said, "Shanghai is already considered a top-tier city in China, but many of the projects you mentioned don't exist here. It seems we still need to go to South Korea. I've heard that this industry is very developed there. If we want to succeed in the medical aesthetics industry in China, we should go and learn from them."

"If you'd like, I'll arrange it."

Luo Yang nodded and said, "As for the timing, perhaps we can wait until we import the equipment. At that time, we can talk to the medical equipment institutions there and send you to investigate. You can also bring a group of people we recruited to go and learn."

"Okay, I'll follow your arrangements."

Jiang Wen nodded obediently, then took the wine glass and said to Luo Yang, "Thank you, husband, I'd like to toast you!"

"I'd also like to offer a toast."

Jiang Xue, who was perched on Luo Yang's back, liked to join in the fun. After speaking, she immediately got off the sofa, found an empty glass, poured herself half a glass of champagne, and joined the three of them in toasting.

"Actually, there are some cosmetic procedures that you may have overlooked that are also very profitable."

After having a drink with the two sisters, Luo Yang said with a smile, "You two might as well guess, it's not a new overseas project, you've both seen it before!"

After he finished speaking, Jiang Wen and Jiang Xue both started to rack their brains to think of something.

See it, ignore it, it's very profitable.
Several keywords kept popping into their minds, connecting with each other, but several minutes passed and the two sisters still couldn't guess it.

"Oh dear, I never would have guessed!"

Jiang Xue, who was impatient, scratched her hair and then climbed onto Luo Yang's back, saying in a coquettish tone, "Just tell us directly!"

Jiang Wen couldn't figure it out either. Hearing her younger sister's coquettish tone, she looked at Luo Yang with expectant eyes.

Have you ever seen the girl with braces?

Luo Yang grinned, revealing two rows of teeth, and gestured with his finger over them; "The kind with a ring of metal braces."

If they still can't guess after being given this much hint, the two sisters might as well go back to school for a refresher course.

Jiang Wen blurted out, "Orthodontic treatment!"

"Yes, yes, that's it."

Jiang Xue exclaimed, "I thought of that too, but I wasn't as quick as you, sister!"

"In addition to orthodontic treatment, there is also dental implantation."

After getting a clear idea, Jiang Wen thought of more and immediately gave an example: "Dental implants are particularly expensive. Last year, my dad had a tooth implanted, and it cost more than 10,000 yuan!"

Luo Yang smiled and clapped gently.

"Aren't orthodontic treatments and dental implants procedures done in dental clinics?"

Jiang Xue asked doubtfully, "Is this also within the scope of cosmetic medicine?"

"You can imagine it."

Luo Yang reached out and pinched Jiang Xue's chin: "What would it feel like to have a girl as pretty as you with two rows of crooked, uneven teeth when you speak?"

"Eh~~~"

Jiang Xue imagined it for a moment, then shuddered: "It's horribly ugly, I don't want it."

Luo Yang released Jiang Xue, then touched her hair and said, "Some people are genetically predisposed to hair loss, while others lose hair due to staying up late and irregular lifestyles. You know, a good hairstyle can enhance a person's beauty by two or three points, so hair transplantation can be considered a sub-project of medical aesthetics, and there are many similar cases."

After giving another example, he paused for a moment and concluded: "Anything that makes people more pleasing to the eye can be included in the category of cosmetic medicine."
