Our Glamorous Time

Chapter 7: Hello Boss

It hadn't crossed Chen Zheng's mind that Aida would have the courage to stand out and confront the whole industry until he received a secret report from his spy in the morning.

Gu Yanzhi was experienced and resourceful. But to make a move at the risk of offending the whole industry was not an action that matched his usual sophisticated style.

This decision was made by someone more inexperienced. Chen Zheng suspected that there was someone working behind Gu Yanzhi.

Rumors were going around saying that Aida's chairman was planning to choose his successor from his two other sons.

Chen Zheng was anxious to find out who his new rival would be. In this scandal crisis, his new rival had already come at him hard. How could he not get revenge and try to knock him or her down as well?

Even the spy didn't know who the person was.

So he thought of Lin Qian.

Well, she's a clever girl. And even though she's new to Aida, she may have noticed something anyways. Also, Aida is on the verge of collapsing, so she might not be so loyal anymore...

Lin Qian said, "It's you, Mr. Chen. You've left me speechless. Oh, they're calling me for a meeting. Sorry, but I have to go!"

With her finger quickly tapping on the screen, she hung up without further delay.

On the other end of the line, Chen Zheng heard the call end, sneered, and threw his phone onto the desk.

On her end, Lin Qian turned around and became lost in her thoughts for a moment.

She had a strong feeling that a huge fight was going to break out between Aida and SMQ.

But isn't that normal in the business world?

She looked up thoughtfully.

In the bustling crowd, the first thing she caught sight of was Li Zhicheng again. He stood in the same spot as before with his hands in his pockets, staring in her direction. To be honest, he looks even better in a dressy coat. He's handsome, put together, and definitely eye-catching. If someone posted his picture on the Internet, he would undoubtedly become famous overnight. He'd be known as the most handsome security guard in the world.

Lin Qian smiled at him and then turned to enter the hall.

The press conference went well.

At 2:00 pm, Gu Yanzhi, dressed in an ironed black suit, sat in the middle of the stage.

By the stage was a crowd of reporters holding up cameras, waiting attentively for him to give his speech. Lin Qian sat down on a staff seat near the back of the hall, feeling a little nervous.

Underneath the spotlight, he looked around with a smile and said, "In regards to the recent public concern, 'Pollutants Detected in AD509 Ladies Handbags,' we, Aida Group, make the following public announcements and commitments.

"First, we have tested and found out that the source of contamination was the fabric being supplied by our European agent. We have terminated all business with them and have also filed a lawsuit against them.

"Second, no matter what the results of the lawsuit are, Aida will fully cover any consumer losses from buying Aida products. We've decided to have a full recall on this batch of products and will give a full refund to our customers. Aida will bear the loss on our own."

The first question was raised by a reporter from Lin City Daily. "Hello, Mr. Gu. As far as I know, all of the luxury handbag companies are involved in this pollutant incident. While the whole industry is still keeping silent, why is Aida the first to stand up and speak out?"
