"Alright, that's all for today's meeting. You all should get back to your work."
After speaking for quite some time, Qiu Xi finally concluded.
Once everyone left, she picked up her water cup and drank more than half of it before finally stopping.
Liang Yunfei had already gone out with Song Jingshu and the others to implement the next steps. Only Xi Qinqin and Qiu Xi remained inside.
"Let's go, we can discuss it further between the two of us."
After finishing her water, Qiu Xi stood up and called Xi Qinqin. They walked towards Xi Qinqin's studio.
"Sister Xi, these are the videos and photos that are almost complete. Please take a look."
"Mm."
Qiu Xi clicked the mouse a few times, and after looking through about seventy to eighty percent of them, she stopped.
"Not bad."
"However, my purpose for coming here today isn't really for this. This is just a side matter."
"I have some other things I need to discuss with you."
Xi Qinqin nodded, "Yes, Sister Xi, please just say it. I'm listening."
Xi Qinqin knew very well that Qiu Xi wouldn't have come all this way just to look at a few videos and photos. If it were that simple, Qiu Xi would have seen most of it already. Coming again now, truthfully, meant she was a bit worried about her... That wasn't necessary at all! So, she could roughly guess why Sister Xi had made this trip.
"Okay, then I'll get straight to it. If necessary, you can jot it down and start preparing slowly. That way, you won't be so rushed when it's time to use it."
As Qiu Xi spoke, she took out the small notebook and pen she carried with her.
"What I need to talk about is actually the new customized products that Pei Wen is preparing to research."
As soon as Qiu Xi finished the introduction, Xi Qinqin took out her own paper and pen. Judging by her posture, this was clearly a significant matter. Qiu Xi glanced at her then continued looking at her notebook.
"And this batch of products will all be in a classical style. Therefore, I hope we can come up with something unique in terms of promotion."
"Next, I'll briefly explain this new product to you. You can get a general understanding, collect materials, and gather inspiration. This will ensure the efficiency of subsequent work."
Actually, according to Qiu Xi's planned production schedule, the promotional aspects could wait until the products were almost finished. However, Qiu Xi had an idea for a video promotion. For the ancient style route, she wanted a promotional film style leaning towards cinematic quality, and she hoped it would be perfectly presented. If possible, she wanted to present this new product through a series of character biographies.
The next stage for Xi Guang was the launch of private high-end customization. And the ancient-style color makeup product formulas she had given to Pei Wen were all from the same series, so naturally, all promotions would follow the ancient style.
"Mm, if possible, after this preliminary preparation work is finished and once Pei Wen's results are out, I hope you can also contribute to the product packaging design."
Indeed, for valuable products, they would naturally require outstanding packaging from her. Not just the inner packaging, but also the outer packaging – not a single flaw would be acceptable. And the subsequent joint promotions absolutely could not have any issues. This was precisely why Xi Qinqin needed to start preparing early, allowing ample time for adjustments later on. Otherwise, if things were rushed and the final product didn't meet expectations, it would lead to a significant amount of unnecessary expenditure. Therefore, preventing problems before they arise meant starting preparations early.
As Qiu Xi spoke, Xi Qinqin's pen did not stop. Especially the part about the product style introduction that Qiu Xi mentioned was filled with notes.
"Sister Xi, I will prepare everything you've mentioned carefully."
"Regarding this character biography promotional method you mentioned, isn't it similar to a film trailer?"
Current product promotional films usually only featured the products themselves. She hadn't encountered this type of promotion before.
Qiu Xi nodded, "Yes, that's right."
"Didn't we say before that Chen Shuo is a professional? You can discuss this with him later."
Xi Qinqin bringing this up specifically reminded Qiu Xi that Chen Shuo, a professional, was by her side. This way, it seemed like some trouble could be saved later on.
"Sister Xi really thinks of everything. I'll discuss it with Ah Shuo later," Xi Qinqin replied with a smile.
This way, Ah Shuo's talent wouldn't be buried in the future. Perhaps he could even return to his old profession and develop it slowly. At this moment, Xi Qinqin had already begun to look forward to Chen Shuo's future development.
"Alright, since you understand everything, I won't stay any longer."
"Take your time looking through it. If you have any questions later, just find me."
She still needed to return to her office and chat with Song Jingshu and the others. If they continued chatting, this whole morning would probably pass by.
"Okay, then Sister Xi, you go ahead and get busy."
"Mm."
After leaving Xi Qinqin's studio, Qiu Xi took a walk around the corridor outside, then took the elevator back to her office. As soon as she sat down in her chair, she picked up the phone next to her and called Song Jingshu, asking her to bring Chu Lan Shang up.
"They're here. Please have a seat here first."
Seeing the two people enter, Qiu Xi gestured to the sofa area in a corner of the office. Once they were seated, Qiu Xi finished saving the last few words she was typing, then picked up a document and walked over.
"Sister Xi, why did you ask us to come up?"
"No rush, take your time," Qiu Xi said to Song Jingshu. "Jingshu, you first tell me about the endorsement matter we discussed earlier."
This hadn't been discussed in the morning meeting because the time wasn't right yet.
"Sister Xi, we have finalized the candidate selections, and we've already started contacting them."
"It's just that... there are a few we had in mind, but their stature is too high, and they are unwilling to come..." Even though they had offered a generous price, those with higher status were indeed unwilling.
"I understand that. If they're not willing, then let it be."
"Regarding the candidates, you can slightly broaden your requirements, but you must ensure their background is clean. Also, make sure the terms are clearly stated when signing the contract."
It was normal for people with high status to look down on them or simply not want to come, and she could accept that. If they found someone else who, excluding their status and influence, met the same conditions as those with high status, she wouldn't object. After all, this was about making money, and mutual benefit was the best outcome.
"Understood," Song Jingshu nodded. They already had this idea in mind, and now that it was confirmed, it would prevent any issues later that might displease Sister Xi.
"Alright, is there anything else?"
Song Jingshu shook her head, "No."
"Okay, then let's move on to the next matter."
"Alright."
