My Daily Basic Stipend Is 10 Million

Chapter 190: Chapter 165: Sorrow, a River of Piss (Part 2)

It was just that while Junxiao Square was running its event, the customer traffic and sales at Jiangzhou Economic Development Zone Wansheng Square were going to be completely screwed.

But there was nothing to be done. He would just have to wait for the other party’s event to end. ’With a two-million-yuan budget, they must have spent every last penny they have!’

He was simply thinking out of habit. Junxiao Square’s predecessor, the old Jiangzhou Wansheng Square, had an annual marketing budget of less than 500,000 yuan. He could never have imagined just how substantial the current Junxiao Square’s marketing budget was.

Peng Yu thought it over. It seemed there was no other choice.

’Fine, Zhao Hui. I’ll let you have this one. We’ll fight again another day!’

After the meeting, he returned Xia Bin’s call. The two updated each other on their respective clashes with their rivals.

Peng Yu patted himself on the back, saying, "With this marketing event at Jiangzhou Economic Development Zone Wansheng Square, we successfully forced Junxiao Square to burn through almost their entire annual marketing budget."

"Once this wave of promotions is over, we’ll immediately follow up with another. By then, they’ll have no money left and we’ll crush them!"

Xia Bin knew that Junxiao Square’s predecessor, the old Jiangzhou Wansheng Square, had always operated on a small marketing budget. The funds Junxiao Square was pouring into this event exceeded what the old Jiangzhou Wansheng Square used to spend in a whole year.

Therefore, Xia Bin believed Peng Yu’s claims without a shred of doubt.

"President Peng, you truly are brilliant. I’ve pretty much sorted things out with the brand on my end. Now that this headache is over, Yino can just wait for me to make my move!"

While on the phone, Peng Yu was scrolling through the latest fashion news when a particular headline caught his eye.

’The brand Sa Mo is releasing a collaboration with Chanel?’

’Holy shit, they’re going that big? Fucking awesome!’

"President Xia, congratulations are in order!"

Xia Bin was completely baffled. ’Congratulate me for what?’

"Sa Mo and Chanel are releasing a collaboration! This is fantastic news for you!"

’Holy shit, for real? Jack Zhang never said a word about this!’

Peng Yu said, "Search today’s fashion headlines. On second thought, I’ll just send you the link!"

"It’s real! Holy shit, this is amazing! My luck has finally turned! It’s finally turned! President Peng, this is incredible news!"

Xia Bin’s face was flushed red with excitement.

"Fuck Huang Guangyuan! Fuck Ganglong International! They must be kicking themselves right now. Just you wait, they’ll come begging for me to move back in!"

Anyone in the business world knew the clout Chanel carried. After all, it was the most valuable luxury brand in the world!

A brand that even the mighty Ganglong International couldn’t attract!

Peng Yu said, "Yeah, it’s a real slap in their face. But hey, President Xia, you could always open a store in my Jiangzhou Economic Development Zone Wansheng Square!"

Xia Bin scoffed internally. ’Even the old Sa Mo looked down on your mall. Now that it’s somehow gotten so big it’s collaborating with Chanel, why would it ever consider your crappy place!’

But he wasn’t about to offend Peng Yu to his face, so he just said, "I’ll get in touch with the brand company about it."

It was a standard brush-off. If things didn’t work out, he could just say the brand hadn’t approved it.

After hanging up, Xia Bin excitedly called his expansion supervisor over.

"Get the floor manager at Ganglong International on the phone. Tell them Sa Mo is releasing a collaboration with Chanel now!"

"I can’t wait to see the looks on their faces. I want you to really play it up. Make them beg you to come back, and when you’re negotiating the terms, squeeze them for everything they’re worth!"

Hearing this news, the expansion supervisor was incredulous. He immediately realized that this was their chance to finally get their backbone back!

’A chance to hold our heads high! We have to hold our heads high!’

"Go make the call, now! Report back to me when you’re done!"

After the expansion supervisor left, he called in the merchandising supervisor.

"Contact Sa Mo’s headquarters immediately. Make sure they allocate more of the Chanel collaboration items to us!"

After giving his orders, Xia Bin started dancing to "Fiery Salang" right there in his office.

This truly swept away the gloom that had persisted for days. ’This time, Four Seasons Clothing is really going to make waves along the Han River!’

There were so many ways to hype up a collaboration like this. He could already picture representatives from all the major malls coming to beg him.

"President Xia, could you give us some of the Chanel collaboration items? Our mall will cover the full cost of any subsidy vouchers..."

"President Xia, could you spare some of the Chanel collaboration items? Our mall will handle all the promotion for free..."

Thinking about these wonderful moments to come, he felt utterly content.

He even started to wonder if he should go to Junxiao Square again to see if his goddess was there. He had been so frazzled the past few days that he hadn’t been in the right state of mind.

’Maybe I should try my luck again today!’

The corners of his mouth lifted as he thought of his goddess. ’How could there be a woman with so much personality in this world? Just thinking about her makes my heart race!’

KNOCK KNOCK!

"Come in!" Even Xia Bin’s voice was much gentler today.

The expansion supervisor entered, trembling all over. Xia Bin gave him a strange look.

"What’s wrong with you? Do you have a high fever?"

"N-no!"

Xia Bin was in no mood to worry about him. He just asked, "So, is everyone at Ganglong International beating themselves up over this? If this had just been a few days later, Sa Mo wouldn’t have even had to pull out, right?"

"Do they want Sa Mo to move back in? What terms are they offering?"

The questions came in a rapid-fire torrent, and the expansion supervisor looked like he was about to cry.

After a long moment, he replied, "Boss, they have indeed already chosen a new location for Sa Mo. They’re already drawing up the blueprints!"

Xia Bin frowned. "What do you mean? We haven’t gone to measure the store space. What blueprints could they possibly be drawing up?"

The expansion supervisor said, "They said Sa Mo is going to be a directly-operated store now. The Jiangzhou Yino Branch is the one who signed the contract!"

Fuck! Xia Bin’s eyes flew wide open. ’How could I have forgotten about that? There’s someone else in Jiangzhou who can open a Sa Mo store, and it’s the direct-operation company itself!’
