Feng Kunlin finished arranging the post-production work for the new product and then reported the progress to Kong Liwei.
As soon as the call connected, Director Feng stated directly that the R&D materials for the new product were obtained from Gao Fei, and after meeting with the raw material supplier tonight, Gao Fei would proceed with production.
Kong Liwei was still a bit shocked after listening, not expecting Feng Kunlin to obtain Gao Fei's new product R&D materials.
He didn't ask how the materials were obtained, and Feng Laokeng chose to keep it a secret.
After reporting the source of the new product, Feng Kunlin began to discuss the product launch plan.
Although the trending searches for the Xinboli Cosmetics Factory had been suppressed, he was concerned that the media might stir up public opinion again after the new product was launched.
Therefore, he requested Mr. Kong to find a way to deal with the media and paparazzi who were constantly watching the factory.
Given the importance of the new product and Gao Fei, Kong Liwei agreed to the request without hesitation.
Now with the secret help of a big boss, Feng Kunlin, who hung up the phone, felt an unprecedented sense of relief.
He immediately ordered all workshops and all on-duty personnel to fully commit to the production of the new product.
At the same time, to ensure secrecy, Feng Kunlin directly sealed off the factory for management, except for a few important departments such as the marketing department.
Some staff members were initially unwilling, but upon hearing about triple their salary, they gritted their teeth, rolled up their sleeves, and worked desperately!
...
As the new cosmetics factory began operations, Gao Fei and Huo Dongcheng also officially met.
Paradise on Earth, as the most luxurious and iconic entertainment venue in the capital, was frequented by the wealthy and influential.
Luxury cars filled the parking lot, and the men and women getting out were dressed impeccably. They were generous with their tips, with each valet receiving hundreds of yuan.
As for the waiters working at the club, their tips in one night could equal a month's salary for an ordinary person.
This was enough to show the financial power and status of the guests who patronized Paradise on Earth.
The top floor of the club.
Compared to the other floors below, the top floor was remarkably quiet.
The hostesses entering and exiting each private room were of a much higher caliber in terms of appearance, temperament, and attire than those on the lower floors.
In some of the more private rooms on the top floor, one could even see aloof goddesses who usually only appeared on screen.
Furthermore, all service staff on the top floor had undergone professional training. They were not allowed to carry mobile phones, and their gazes were not permitted to linger for more than three seconds when serving drinks or fruit platters to the rooms.
The top floor was the pinnacle of the entire club's hierarchy, and the floors below were not on the same level in comparison.
'Jade Peak' private room.
Ding Yao, Jin Qiqi, and a few of Huo Dongcheng's personal staff were sitting in the private room, bored, singing and drinking.
Despite the large room, Gao Fei and Huo Dongcheng were nowhere to be seen.
Ten minutes earlier, after exchanging pleasantries, the two had agreed to go to the club's tearoom for tea.
They hadn't brought anyone with them, and the people in the private room were unaware of what they were discussing.
Ding Yao, having already had quite a bit to drink at the dinner, didn't continue drinking and instead ordered a cup of tea, chatting with Jin Qiqi.
"Xiao Jin, what do you think the boss and Mr. Huo are plotting? They're keeping it from us, it seems like something big is going on," she asked softly after taking a sip of tea.
Jin Qiqi glanced at the followers whispering nearby and shook her head, saying, "I don't know what they're plotting, but the boss definitely wants to scheme against someone.
Judging by his style, if it's something we can't hear, he's definitely holding back and planning to take someone down."
"Could it be that he wants to bring down Feng Kunlin in one fell swoop?" Ding Yao guessed.
Jin Qiqi shrugged, indicating she didn't know. She also reminded her, "Sister Ding, it's best not to speculate about the boss's thoughts, because you'll never know what his next move will be.
For now, just follow his orders and do as you're told."
"Understood!"
Just as they were talking, two shouts suddenly came from outside the door.
"Bang!"
The private room door was pushed open forcefully, and Huo Dongcheng walked in with a furious expression.
As soon as he entered the room, the music also stopped abruptly.
He glared fiercely at Jin Qiqi and Ding Yao, who were sitting together, and then turned to his followers, "Damn it, what are you all sitting there stupidly for?
Do you think drinking is free? Do you think hiring women is free?
Get up and come back to Hong Kong with me, you losers!"
Seeing their boss's angry roar, the followers finally reacted, realizing the talks had broken down. They immediately grabbed their belongings and followed him.
However, as they stepped out the door, they bumped into Gao Fei, who was walking towards them with a smile, hands clasped behind his back.
Upon seeing each other, Huo Dongcheng's expression turned even more grim.
He glared at Gao Fei and roared, "Gao, you useless piece of trash! If your business dares to set foot in Hong Kong again, I'll make sure you never come back alive!"
"Threatening me again?"
Gao Fei shook his head and smiled, walking forward calmly and looking down at him from above. "I'll say it again, if you want to cooperate, you have to listen to me.
This is the capital, not Hong Kong.
In the capital, my rules are the rules!"
"Fine, you're ruthless! Gao!"
Huo Dongcheng gritted his teeth and said no more, leading his men away.
After they left, Gao Fei calmly walked into the private room.
He glanced at the wine and fruit platters on the table, then looked at Jin Qiqi and Ding Yao, who were looking surprised, and said with a smile, "What are you standing around for? They're gone. Store the wine and we'll drink it another time."
Jin Qiqi nodded and, without asking further questions, began to ask the service staff to store the wine.
Ding Yao, on the other hand, couldn't help but ask, "Boss, did you completely fall out with that Mr. Huo?"
Gao Fei picked up a bottle of mineral water from the table and took a gulp. He replied, "I wanted to pay a fifty-thousand-yuan deposit for the batch of raw materials he has, and pay the rest after the product was manufactured and sold to recoup the costs.
But that Mr. Huo was unreasonable and insisted on full payment, so we couldn't reach an agreement."
After hearing the explanation, Ding Yao estimated the factory's funds. Paying the full three hundred and fifty thousand yuan would indeed create a funding gap for the factory.
After all, it was their first time cooperating with Huo Dongcheng, and it was difficult for him to agree to a fifty-thousand-yuan deposit and pay the balance after the product was sold. It was normal for the talks to break down.
Ding Yao sighed helplessly, "If Huo Dongcheng had agreed, we could have started production immediately once the raw materials arrived. What a shame!"
"There's nothing to regret. Without him, we can still produce!"
Gao Fei looked at Ding Yao, whose cheeks were flushed and who exuded a mature and charming aura, and smiled. "Go back and get some good rest tonight. Once all the raw materials arrive, you will be in charge of product production."
Deputy Director Ding was stunned at first, then her face lit up with joy.
No wonder the boss was so calm; he had already contacted other raw material suppliers.
She suddenly hugged Gao Fei's arm. "Boss is amazing. I will definitely supervise production carefully."
"Watch your image! Watch your image!"
Gao Fei coughed awkwardly. Seeing Jin Qiqi walking towards them, he quickly pulled his hand away, and Ding Yao's face turned even redder.
Just as the three were preparing to take the elevator down, two men in black suits, who looked a cut above the average thugs, walked over briskly.
"Mr. Gao, please wait a moment. Our boss would like to meet you."
