Chapter 433: Chapter 200 Look, isn’t that a limp?
After taking my seat, the first thing I did was order coffee.
After exchanging some pleasantries, Si Bohan couldn’t wait to start probing Su Huai.
"Mr. Su, you’re really quite young. If I may be so bold, you don’t look like a businessman but more like a student from a modelling school. In our Paris International Art Academy, we have many young and handsome students just like you, but even among them, you’d still stand out as the most dazzling one."
Hey, I like hearing compliments about my looks!
But good looks aside, Su Huai knew what he was really trying to figure out, so he played along a little.
"Mr. Si, I am a student, currently enrolled at Capital Normal University."
Su Huai hinted only as much as needed, mainly wanting to see whether Si Bohan knew enough about Gu Tongshu.
However, the answer was negative; the other party’s reaction clearly showed he was not aware that Gu Tongshu’s precious daughter attended Capital Normal University.
Si Bohan showed a hint of surprise, "Really? That must be a good school. But I’m sorry to say, I assumed your involvement would be in the fashion industry. Have I guessed wrong?"
"Not entirely. I’m here for your company’s BA Influencer Marketing project."
Su Huai didn’t bring up Gu Tongshu and Gu Jiuyue again. Since Si Bohan’s position wasn’t high enough to discern the connection between himself and Gu Tongshu, there was no need to explain.
Talking oneself up using connections is a shortcut, but the more one uses shortcuts, the more one must be careful.
The more one explains, the weaker one’s mystique and authority become, allowing the opponent to sense inadequacy.
To bluff someone savvy in business like Si Bohan, a CEO-level character, you have to make him guess and speculate, instead of boasting about how tight I am with Gu Tongshu.
Su Huai timely handed over his business card, saying, "Let me reintroduce myself: Su Huai, assistant to the chairman of Xingyu Entertainment, representative of Xingyu’s major shareholder, director of Xingyu Guild’s Strategy Committee, and the primary person responsible for the big platform project."
All these titles failed to make any impression on Si Bohan, because no matter how impressive the titles sounded, the size of Xingyu itself wasn’t significant enough to warrant attention.
If you’re the biggest landlord in the village, would you care about the chairman and general manager of a tiny shop at the village entrance?
Si Bohan didn’t think there was anything about the assistant of Xingyu that merited attention.
However, all these introductions were merely Su Huai’s preamble.
Su Huai paused and continued, "Our Xingyu is a start-up company, but because of its trendy and advanced philosophy, it has been highly recognized by capital markets..."
Si Bohan suddenly became intrigued and looked at Su Huai carefully.
"Oh? Was it Mr. Gu?"
"Not just Mr. Gu."
Su Huai shook his head, starting the first wave of bluffs.
"You might think I have some background, hence I received Mr. Gu’s help. But in fact, well before Mr. Gu called you, the high-ranking executives of Gu Corporation had already approved of my ideas. The corporation’s assistant director personally inspected us and provided us with our current office address without asking for any shares, just for a chance to enter the market later on."
The young man tapped his fingers on the table and then showed an appropriately proud expression.
"The 456th floor of Changqing Building, previously owned by Mr. Zuo, was directly transferred to us to serve as our headquarters without any formal procedure. If there is a chance to give a comprehensive report to your company, you will see the related materials."
Si Bohan was stunned.
He’s not someone easily fooled, but unfortunately, anyone would be astounded to hear such statements.
The reason is understandable—the assistance of Gu Tongshu represents his personal favor, but the Gu Corporation making a collective decision naturally indicates a business perspective, signaling a high regard for the Xingyu company.
Moreover, the Gu Corporation’s assistant director personally conducted the inspection?
When Gu Corporation invested in L’Oréal, it was that same Mr. Zuo who represented Mr. Gu for the preliminary investigations, a super-shrewd negotiation expert!
Si Bohan instantly held the young man in high esteem, feeling that the lad before him was at least his equal.
To put it bluntly, even L’Oréal China wouldn’t be worthy of a personal inspection by Mr. Zuo...
"Jesus! This is astonishing! But seeing how young and outstanding you are, I can suddenly understand their decision."
Si Bohan’s ability to compliment someone in Chinese was a bit lacking, but he truly started to take things seriously and began thinking a lot more.
"Could you please introduce me to your company, Xingyu? I’m very interested!"
Hey, now that’s the right level of interest!
As we proceed, you’ll become even more interested.
Su Huai nodded with a smile and started the second wave of bluffing, "The rise of Xingyu was a beautiful accident, the situation is complex yet simple. Right now, I will briefly introduce you to the overview from a macro perspective."
"Xingyu’s precursor was a small company mainly dealing with the brokerage of entertainment streamers. Thanks to the approval of the major shareholder for the company’s leading lady, the original guild was purchased, and a portion of the shares was gifted."
As a result, the current situation became—"
The major shareholder with 55% share doesn’t involve himself in management; he just spends money to support the company’s leading lady, Pei Shuyu."
Ms. Pei holds 30% of the shares and is currently an entertainment streamer, growing rapidly."
The former company owner, Li Shizhi, holds 15% of the shares and is the current general manager, responsible for execution."
Normally speaking, Xingyu’s path was set and would naturally expand into a giant entertainment guild over time. But that’s all.
However, the major shareholder entrusted his rights to me, and I’m not satisfied with that boring future. I have some ideas that I could realize through Xingyu, with the full support of Ms. Pei and Mr. Li."
