The moment Wei Yi pushed open the door, he felt as if he had stepped into the recording studio of a reality show.

Five people were crammed onto the living room sofa. Jin Shilin sat cross-legged on the carpet, while two others moved chairs from the dining room and sat opposite the coffee table.

Including Lin Siyan, who had just come out of the kitchen carrying a fruit platter, and Chen Xinyi, who was standing in the middle of the living room with her hands on her hips, there were a total of seven women.

The coffee table was covered with snacks, fruit, several open bottles of coconut juice, and a stack of printed documents.

The laughter that had been racing just moments before suddenly stopped the moment he pushed open the door.

Seven faces turned towards the entrance at the same time, displaying a variety of expressions.

Lin Siyan looked down at the fruit plate without looking at him. Jin Shilin winked at him. Liu Yang crossed his arms and looked him up and down as if he were evaluating a product that had just been appraised. Zhao Min pursed her lips and suppressed her laughter, her face turning red.

There were also two girls he should pretend not to know at this moment.

One wore glasses, the other had short hair, and both wore expressions of curiosity that seemed to say, "Oh, so he's the legendary person."

Chen Xinyi greeted her with a smile, her slippers making a clattering sound on the floor.

"You're back? Perfect timing! Let me introduce you."

She pointed to the girl wearing glasses, "Senior Wang, a senior at Renmin University, is my direct senior in the law department. My future advisor is her advisor."

He then pointed to the short-haired girl, "Senior Li, from Tsinghua University next door, is a senior majoring in industrial design. She and Senior Wang were high school classmates, and they are both locals from Yanjing."

Wei Yi nodded in greeting.

He knew both of these people in his past life.

After graduating, Wang joined King & Wood Mallesons and later became an important assistant in her sister's legal career.

After working at a leading design company for several years, Li started her own business and won the Red Dot Industrial Design Award.

These are all connections that Chen Xinyi built up during her university years.

They are capable, have a good background, and are relatively trustworthy.

After exchanging pleasantries, Zhao Min couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Liu Yang was straightforward; he crossed his legs and leaned back on the sofa.

"Brother Wei Yi, you're back just in time. We were just talking about a very important topic, which is related to you."

"What are you talking about?" Wei Yi asked knowingly.

Liu Yang had just opened his mouth when he said, "Of course we're talking about your area..."

"Let's get down to business!"

Chen Xinyi rushed over and covered Liu Yang's mouth, then turned back and smiled at Wei Yi, a smile that was almost too sweet.

"We were talking about the tea beverage industry. We've been discussing the future plans for Sweet Ice Cream and Heytea all afternoon. Right, Liu Yang?"

Liu Yang let out a muffled "Yes" through Chen Xinyi's fingers.

Zhao Min was trying so hard to suppress her laughter that she almost poked a hole in the sofa armrest.

Lin Siyan silently walked around everyone with the fruit platter in her hand, placing it on the coffee table in the corner furthest from Wei Yi.

Her silence today was heavier than usual, but no one noticed except herself.

Jin Shilin sat on the carpet, looking up at the play, crunching a slice of watermelon in her hand.

Chen Xinyi released Liu Yang, cleared her throat, and switched back to "President Chen" mode.

She said the main reason for gathering everyone together today was to discuss Sweet Ice Cream and Heytea.

She decided to enter the tea beverage industry.

Moreover, he didn't want to rely solely on himself and Wei Yi to fight alone.

She wants to bring in capable and trustworthy friends, those with money can contribute money, those with strength can contribute strength, and those with connections can contribute connections.

Let's start a business together and create a brilliant future together.

Wei Yi nodded inwardly after hearing this.

The idea that he should not keep all the profits from his own business was probably influenced by his older sister.

In her past life, she started from scratch and was able to establish herself in Yanjing, building a business with a net worth of over 100 million yuan.

Not hoarding food and being good at making friends with capable people are two crucial things.

"Senior Wang will be a great help in the legal field in the future. Senior Li is studying industrial design, so we'll hand over store visuals and product packaging to her. Liu Yang and Zhao Min, you and I are old partners. Shi Lin will be in charge of operations, Si Yan will manage finances, and I'll oversee the overall situation. As for Wei Yi..."

She glanced back at Wei Yi, a hint of smugness flashing in her peach blossom eyes.

"He's my boss. He came up with the whole industry trend, and he also set the brand positioning for Heytea and Sweet Ice Cream. I'm just an employee."

"When did I ever ask you to work for me?" Wei Yi said.

"Shut up. I said it, so it is."

Senior Li pushed up her glasses and looked at Wei Yi: "You were the one who came up with the idea of ​​the tea beverage industry? Didn't you just finish your college entrance exams?"

Chen Xinyi answered for him, her tone as proud as if she were announcing a Nobel Prize winner.

It is said that Wei Yi not only provided the direction, but also outlined the framework for how Heytea would develop its two lines of high-end direct-operated stores and Sweet Ice Cream's expansion into lower-tier markets, how to share the supply chain, and how to position the brand.

She was only responsible for carrying out the orders.

Wei Yi stood by the coffee table, his face swept back and forth by the gazes of several girls.

Liu Yang looked at him with a more serious expression than when they ate barbecue at the Korean restaurant last time.

Last time she thought of him as "a handsome young man she admires," but this time she thought, "This guy seems to have some real talent."

Liu Yang stood up, walked to Wei Yi, and looked up at him.

She wasn't short, but Wei Yi was 1.82 meters tall, so she had to look up at him.

"Xinyi said you were the one who proposed the tea beverage sector. I admit the framework is indeed good, with a clear strategy and well-defined positioning. But honestly, for a high school student who just finished the college entrance exam and scored 560 points, to come up with these things..."

She abruptly changed the subject, staring directly at Wei Yi. "I'd rather believe that you, Xinyi, taught me all this. Because from your freshman year of college until now, you've been three steps ahead of your peers at every step. I don't believe an ordinary high school student from a second-tier university has this kind of vision."

The living room became quiet.

Chen Xinyi rolled her eyes.

She walked up to Wei Yi, cupped his face in her hands, stood on tiptoe, and kissed him directly.

It's not just a fleeting glance.

It was a real, assertive declaration of sovereignty, a kiss right in front of six people.

Wow!

"You two are really showing off your love in public!"

"Damn, this is too much of a public display of affection!"

"Oh dear, my eyes!"

"..."

A burst of laughter followed.

In the kitchen, Lin Siyan was cutting oranges from a fruit plate.

She didn't laugh.

Moreover, the sound of the knife hitting the cutting board was loud and clear.

A few seconds later, Chen Xinyi released Wei Yi, turned around, put her hands on her hips, raised her chin slightly, and her peach blossom eyes were full of provocation and smugness.

"I've always said my brother is the best! Whether you believe me or not is your business, but I do."

Looking at her expression, Liu Yang remained silent for a moment before sighing and sitting back down on the sofa. "Fine, fine, you win. Let's make it clear first, I'll only believe half of it."

Seeing that the tension had subsided, Senior Wang spoke up: "Since you, Wei Yi, are the one who proposed the strategy, may I ask a few questions? What are your criteria for judging the tea beverage industry? Why enter now instead of next year? Why both high-end and low-end markets instead of choosing one or the other?"

Senior Li chimed in, "And then there's the brand visual identity. The high-end and lower-tier lines target completely different consumer groups, requiring different strategies for product design, store design, and brand tone. Do you have any specific ideas?"

Wei Yi glanced at Chen Xinyi. Chen Xinyi nodded at him.

He walked to the coffee table and looked up at the seven women sitting in a circle.

"Okay. Then I'll start from the beginning."
