I'm such a lovesick person.

Chapter 208 The Son of the Richest Man in Linjiang City

six thirty.

Jujin Building, Jinhui Hall.

After Wei Lin arrived, he sent the location and box name to Dai Yixuan and played with his phone.

After pondering for a moment, he opened the chat dialog box with Fang Qidong and said, "Brother Fang, Dai Yixuan has come to our Linjiang City. I'd like to entertain her to express my gratitude."

He regarded Fang Qidong as a friend, and Fang Qidong was quite fond of Dai Yixuan. As friends, he and Dai Yixuan had private interactions, so he felt it necessary to tell Fang Qidong.

Fang Qidong helped when Like Fitness held an event at Donglin Hotel, and when he looked for Shi Qing last time.

Regardless of whether the woman he has set his sights on will have any result or whether Dai Yixuan has feelings for him, Wei Lin feels that as a friend, he should make it clear in advance.

This is to prevent Fang Qidong from feeling resentful after knowing this in the future, and from misunderstanding that he was flirting with Dai Yixuan in private, thus hurting the relationship between their friends.

"What is she doing in Linjiang City?"

Fang Qidong asked curiously.

Wei Lin replied: "I have a friend who represents Jing Qian and is currently running a promotion with great fanfare. Perhaps this is related to the situation."

"Then I understand. Wei Lin, I trust your character. The fact that you told me this proves you're quite capable. You don't have to worry about anything. She doesn't even think highly of me." Fang Qidong replied with a crying emoji and continued, "You're the host, just treat her well."

Wei Lin: "Okay, Brother Fang, I know what to do."

After finishing the conversation with Fang Qidong, Wei Lin frowned and thought about Dai Yixuan's purpose of coming here, and how he could help Dai Yixuan.

Dai Yixuan helped a lot with the Lilong Clothing matter, but Wei Lin felt that just treating her to a meal and accompanying her to visit the gardens in Linjiang City was not enough.

When people get along with each other, there is an exchange of interests.

Owing such a big favor, given Wei Lin's way of doing things, he always thinks about repaying it in some way.

But after thinking about it, he felt that he had nothing to give to Dai Yixuan.

This woman is wealthy, has a high social status, has extensive resources and connections, and is healthy and full of energy. She seems to lack nothing.

With what Wei Lin currently had, it seemed that there was nothing she was interested in, and it was not enough to repay the favor.

A quarter of an hour later, Dai Yixuan, wearing a hat of the "Nimo" brand, stepped into the Jinhui Hall with a smile.

As soon as she came in, she took off her thick down jacket, wrapped her slender upper body in a gray sweater, and wore a pair of white wide-leg pants, making herself look smart and simple.

Among all the rich second-generations, she is the most outstanding one, but apart from a Piaget ladies' watch, she has no other expensive jewelry to wear.

"Your hat is quite unique. I like your brand name."

Dai Yixuan took off his hat and pointed at the words "Black Reverse Red Devil." Admiration flashed in his narrow, almond-shaped eyes as he said, "As for the other 'Lin' brand, it's not very interesting. It's too common."

This crazy woman has an arrogant and even a little domineering personality, and the "rebel demon" obviously fits her personality.

"Brands that are too unconventional are destined to be unpopular with the general public and have limited market share." Wei Lin waited for her to sit down before explaining with a smile, "Our company's first brand was indeed intended to take a different approach and capture a niche market. Once that brand achieved some success, I wanted to reach the general public, so we created our second brand."

Dai Yixuan nodded: "There's nothing wrong with it."

Wei Lin pressed the bell, called the waiter in, and indicated that the dishes were ready.

"Thank you for your help in Lilong's malicious competition against Qingque last time. It saved me a lot of trouble."

Wei Lin picked up the red wine glass in front of him, thanked Dai Yixuan, and then drank it all in one gulp.

"It's a small matter, no need to be polite."

Dai Yixuan also took a sip.

When she came, Wei Lin asked her whether she wanted to drink in the evening and what kind of wine she wanted to drink.

She mentioned red wine.

After taking a sip of wine, she picked up some cold dishes and chewed them slowly. She squinted her eyes and looked at Wei Lin, saying, "Qingque's positioning is not low. It's still a bit difficult to get consumers to accept its price."

Wei Lin smiled bitterly: "You're right. After I joined Qingque Clothing, I also used some methods to promote it and found some internet celebrities to cooperate with, but the effect was indeed not very good."

Dai Yixuan said, "To build a brand like this, you have to continuously invest in promotion, both online and offline. For example, for my cosmetics business, 40% of the profit goes into advertising. The annual advertising costs are so high that they make me bleed."

"Advertising is my biggest expense. There's really nothing I can do about it."

The two of them started drinking before the hot dishes were served, but they only talked about work.

The last time they met, Wei Lin refused to add her on WeChat, the "read but not replied" messages on Douyin, and Wei Lin's impatience when she called him, the two of them didn't talk about these things at all, as if they had never happened.

The dinner ended with a work discussion, but there was no substantive content.

"Accompany me to a teahouse to have some tea and meet a friend I haven't seen in a long time."

Dai Yixuan, who had drunk half a bottle of red wine, smiled and said after eating and drinking, "He's from Linjiang City too. Maybe you've heard of him too."

"Who?" Wei Linqi asked.

Dai Yixuan: "You'll know when you get there."

"it is good."

He parked his car in the parking lot of Jujinlou and took Dai Yixuan's Leifa to a private teahouse that was not open to the public.

"Yixuan, why did you suddenly notify me after we already arrived in Linjiang City?"

A refined man in a gray suit stood in the room. As soon as she and Wei Lin entered, he smiled and stepped forward to greet them. He introduced himself to Wei Lin, "I'm Han Jie." He was slightly shorter than Wei Lin, about 1.8 meters tall, with a slender and well-proportioned build. He wore tortoise-shell glasses and looked quite gentle.

Wei Lin was startled, stepped forward and shook his hand, saying, "Wei Lin."

Han Jie, the eldest son of Hanli Group in Linjiang City.

Wei Lin had never seen this person, but had heard of his name.

As soon as he introduced himself, Wei Lin immediately confirmed that he was the son of the richest man in Linjiang City.

Unlike the rich second generation like Zhao Yuanqing, Huo Shiqi and Zhuang Daoyuan, Han Jie is a little older than him. He has been working in Hanli Group for a long time. He is usually busy with the company's business and has never done anything shameful.

He is highly educated, capable, mature and sophisticated, and always acts in a low-key manner.

Han Jie, 34 years old, is of the same age as Fang Qidong, Gao Yuan and others. He has long lost his youthful arrogance and there is nothing wrong with his behavior.

"I came here on a whim. I had a dinner date with a friend, and then I suddenly remembered I hadn't seen you in a while."

Dai Yixuan chuckled and, under Han Jie's guidance, went to an elegant private room. She watched Han Jie make tea with great interest and turned to ask Wei Lin, "Do you two know each other?"

Wei Lin smiled and shook his head, saying, "I don't know him, but I've heard of Brother Han's name."

After dinner, Dai Yixuan suddenly invited him to meet Han Jie, which made Wei Lin confused and he didn't know what this woman meant.

The son of the richest man in Linjiang City is said to seldom interact with people of his own age. His friends are all much older than him, and the social gatherings he attends are all attended by leaders and various elderly people.

Perhaps because of this, Han Jie, although not very old, gives people the feeling of being mature and a little... too old.

"Wei Lin, what do you do? Are you from Linjiang City too?"

Han Jie asked with a smile, handed over a cup of tea, and said, "Try it."

"Brother Han, I'm from Linjiang. I'm in the business of hat manufacturing and branding." Wei Lin took the tea with both hands and explained, "My company is called Xinlin Hat Industry."

He didn't understand tea and couldn't tell the quality of tea, but since the tea was brewed by Han Jie himself, it must be good tea.

"Xinlin Hat Industry..."

Han Jie had never heard of this company and had no impression of it, but he was secretly curious.

In Linjiang City, a company that Han Jie had never heard of could not be a big company.

What puzzled him was how Wei Lin knew Dai Yixuan?
Why did Dai Yixuan let Wei Lin come to receive her when she came to Linjiang City? And why did she bring Wei Lin with her to see him?

Han Jie and Dai Yixuan were quite familiar with each other and knew that this girl had always been very arrogant and that the people she came into contact with were always of low level.

"Yixuan, I heard that there seems to be some problem with your Lianrou's Liufang series?"

Han Jie changed the subject and began discussing something with Dai Yixuan, saying, "You've always been cautious. You must have tested new products repeatedly before launching them. I don't think there's really a problem with your Liufang series. What's going on?"

"I'm also puzzled. I'm not sure what's going on right now." Dai Yixuan sighed softly and said, "Liufang's new product was just launched not long ago. It's working fine everywhere else, but something went wrong with an agent in Jinling City. It's impacted my brand image, and even the regulatory authorities are targeting me."

The two of them immediately discussed the matter in detail.

Wei Lin was not familiar with Dai Yixuan before, and he didn't care about the cosmetics market. He only cared about Xinlin's share of the cosmetics that Zhou Rong's Irina Beauty Salon had on the shelves of six Internet celebrities' windows.

He never cared about anything else.

Through the conversation between Han Jie and Dai Yixuan, he learned that Lianrou is the most profitable brand of Tianxuan Beauty, and the higher-end Jingqian's profits are far less than Lianrou.

The Liufang series, as the name suggests, means retaining youth, and was recently launched by Tianxuan Beauty.

Dai Yixuan attached great importance to this series and spent a lot of money to promote it in the early stage, and the response in the market was also good.

However, an agent in Jinling City sold the Liufang series, and many consumers reported itchy skin and allergies, causing a stir on social media.

Dai Yixuan was also affected by this matter. She planned to go to Linjiang City to relax and then go directly to Jinling City to deal with it.

Since it was a new product, she couldn't estimate the situation accurately and was also worried whether it was a problem with her product.

If it is really her problem with Liu Fang, then this series will be ruined, the huge amount of money invested in research and development and promotion will be wasted, and it will also affect the image of the entire Lianrou brand.

"I'm planning to talk to the agent over there to see what's going on."

Dai Yixuan said.

"I think there's nothing wrong with you. The problem should be with the agent."

Han Jie had great confidence in her abilities and said, "Many problems ultimately come down to people. Just check if there's anything wrong with that agent."

Dai Yixuan agreed, nodded slightly, and said, "I'm afraid she won't tell the truth and is hiding something. I think investigating it would be too time-consuming."

As soon as these words were spoken, Wei Lin's mind moved.

Even though his life energy is currently zero, the strange power he radiates after the fifth round of life advancement is still usable.

He could intuitively tell whether the people around him were lying. Whenever he and Dai Yixuan went to meet the agent, he could keenly sense whether the other party was deliberately concealing something.

This can help Dai Yixuan save a lot of time and allow her to handle things quickly.

If the life essence could be accumulated to the point where he could use mind reading once, as long as he sat face to face with the agent, Wei Lin would be able to accurately find out the truth and allow Dai Yixuan to quickly deal with it with the right medicine.
