Wind Rises 2005

Chapter 584 Surprised
  So when Ma Liang heard the choice of the demon girl, he agreed very much, so he immediately encouraged: "This product category is really well chosen, at least the competition is not that fierce."

In fact, early makeup remover products did not have much technical content and were inferior to facial mask products.

In addition, there are not too many brands in this category, and relatively speaking, the competitive pressure will be much lower than that of other beauty products.

This means that the development of makeup remover products is extremely cost-effective, and if they are bundled with facial mask products, if promoted well, it can bring another wave of revenue growth to the [Qingyan] company.

"Yeah, we thought it was good after discussion. Sister Juanhui's laboratory has the ability to develop it, so we decided to do it."

Liu Feifei was very happy when she heard this. If Ma Liang recognized it, her confidence would be even greater.

Ma Liang then added a suggestion: “In addition to developing products such as makeup remover water, makeup remover oil or makeup remover balm, it is best to find supplier resources for makeup remover cotton or wipes.

If possible, it would be easier to open the market by combining makeup remover products with wet wipes to create a portable makeup remover wipes. "

Originally, as a man, Ma Liang couldn't possibly understand these things.

But he also had little girlfriends in his previous life. These were all experiences he learned when traveling with those girls.

Girls, there are some who are not lazy!
  Therefore, almost everyone will prepare some makeup remover wipes, especially when going on a business trip or traveling.

Because makeup remover wipes are not only easy to carry, they can remove all makeup with just one wipe, and they don’t need to be washed. They can be used for “lazy style” makeup removal anytime and anywhere. What girl wouldn’t like it?

If [Qingyan] company enters the market with makeup remover wipes, it will naturally seize some opportunities.

You must know that there is a huge market gap in this segment, and you can even enter some large offline sales channels with makeup remover wipes products.

Once there is a big breakthrough in offline sales channels, it will definitely bring the [Qingyan] brand to a whole new level.

There are countless cases where a certain product sells well and thus expands the brand's influence.

Since starting her business, Yaonv has indeed made money from facial mask products. [Qingyan] has also gained a lot of popularity online, but it is still far from breaking out of the circle and becoming a well-known brand.

When a man gives you priority when buying beauty products for his girlfriend or daughter-in-law, then he is truly famous.

At least [Qingyan] has not been able to achieve this level yet, and there is still a long way to go in the future.

"Makeup removal wipes? Are they disposable?" Liu Feifei Bingxue was smart and naturally reacted quickly.

Ma Liang nodded and replied proudly: "Yes, it's just as you understand."

This thing was rare in 2008, even in Xiangjiang or Xiaoli.

Any new product has a dividend period. If it can seize the market gap, it will naturally gain huge advantages through freshness.

This sense of freshness is not only for consumers, but also for sales channels.

After all, it is human nature to seek novelty. With a fresh product like makeup remover wipes, both consumers and distributors will want to try it.

Users try to use it to remove makeup conveniently, and sellers want to try it to see if it sells well.

Therefore, products like makeup remover wipes can enable [Qingyan] to open offline sales channels that were difficult to enter in the past, especially those large chain stores.

For example, like [Watson's] opened by Lao Li in Xiangjiang, the enchantress applied to the store many times but was rejected directly.

Just because [Qingyan] is not well-known enough, for facial mask products, [Watson's] has many bigger brands to cooperate with, and the suppliers have already been saturated.

They have been working together for many years, so how can they leave the shelves empty for you to an unknown emerging brand?

After all, consumers also recognize brands, and in most cases they buy those they know or are familiar with.

No one can live with money. There are only so many shelves at [Watson's], and emerging brands will inevitably not have as high a sales volume as well-known brands.

Let [Qingyan]'s facial mask enter the market, and it will inevitably replace another well-known brand's product.

If offline consumers don't approve of it, wouldn't Watsons have to make a lot less money?

It’s only 2008, and not everyone reads beauty reviews online all day long.

You must know that at this moment, not many people watch dramas online every day, so after all, there are only a few people who know the brand [Qingyan].

But makeup remover wipes are different. The freshness of the product is enough to impress large channel sellers such as [Watson's], and it has been able to enter their hundreds of chain stores across the country.

As long as there is a first cooperation, it will be much easier to discuss the entry of other products later.

In this way, [Qingyan]'s products will usher in a huge sales peak, and revenue will even double in a short period of time.

So Liu Feifei immediately thought of a lot after listening to it, and her eyes immediately lit up.

At this time, she looked at Ma Liang, not to mention how much admiration and love she felt in her eyes. If other employees hadn't been there, they might have been tempted to express their feelings on the spot.

She was so excited that she was no longer in the mood to review the product.

I immediately roped in my assistants and quickly searched for relevant information online, analyzing the market feasibility of makeup remover wipes.

I have to say that the demon girl is really ambitious. Even Ma Liang shook his head when he saw it. Fortunately, the employees of [Qingyan] Company are no longer just girls, and they have finally recruited a few boys to join.

It's just that the boys still stay in the university town to work, and only the girls moved here to the old bungalow.

Since working at home is not a long-term solution, Liu Feifei has already looked at an office building near her new home and will rent a formal office space in a while.

Seeing the heated discussion between the demon girl and a group of girls, Ma Liang turned around and left, then turned around and returned to the main building.

We walked all the way to the master bedroom on the third floor and fell asleep on the bed, intending to rest for a while.

Recently, in order to cope with the exam, he had to read books for several nights, but he was forced to do nothing.

After all, no matter how experienced a lawyer was in his previous life, it was impossible to memorize every knowledge point by heart.

Every lawyer has specialties and relatively unfamiliar areas, and Ma Liang is the same.

Therefore, in order to cope with certain special professional subject examinations, he had to improvise and flip through the books for a quick recall before the examination.

Fortunately, the basic foundation is still there, so there is no problem in passing.

He was going to lie down on the bed, close his eyes and rest his mind, but he fell asleep unconsciously. I don’t know how much time passed, but I was suddenly woken up by the ringtone of my cell phone.

Ma Liang opened his eyes, quickly took the phone from the pillow and saw that it was Jennifer calling.

He raised his head and looked out the window. It was not dark yet, and he immediately felt a little panicked, thinking that something important had happened.

So he didn't dare to delay and quickly picked up the phone: "Jennifer, it's not even dawn over there yet, why are you calling me so early?"

"Dear BOSS, it's already morning here!" Jennifer responded angrily after hearing this.

When Ma Liangmeng heard this, he became even more puzzled: "Nonsense, the time difference between the United States and China is more than ten hours.

It's not dark here, so how could it be morning over there? "

"BOSS, you are also making people sad. Didn't I tell you a long time ago that I would come to Europe in the near future?

Now I'm in Munich, isn't it the morning..."

Jennifer was obviously very dissatisfied with the boss Ma Liang's answer and was indifferent even to her own business trip to Europe.

Who is she working so hard for? It’s not for Twitter’s financing plan.

You must know that in Ma Liang's life-changing plan, Twitter's next round of financing would be best to attract some funds from influential investment institutions in Europe.

When it comes to dividing the cake, we naturally have to consider the capital tycoons in Europa. Twitter can also take advantage of it when the time comes to develop here.

To become a real king, Twitter must consider internationalization issues.

Once it internationalizes, the European market must be a top priority. Whether it is your own future development or you want to invest in mergers and acquisitions, you need the support of local forces.

Even if the support is not that strong, it would be nice to be able to connect people and build a bridge.

So Ma Liang had told Jennifer very early on to hang out with top investment institutions in Europe.

If possible, we will also attract a few capital tycoons with background here this time.

Because of the disaster in my hometown, I had forgotten about this incident. Hearing Jennifer mention it at this time, he recalled it.

Knowing that his beautiful CEO was unhappy, Ma Liang hurriedly comforted him: "Don't be naughty, you don't know that my hometown has recently suffered a huge housing crisis.

It is normal to forget for a while.

How's it going over there? How was your experience on this business trip? "

"I'm doing well. Not only did I get Twitter's financing, I also spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to invest in seven or eight small start-up projects in Europe.

And what surprises me the most is that there are actually some fund of funds and LPs who want to invest in us. "

Jennifer was very excited to report that she had been on a business trip to Europa for more than half a month and was warmly entertained wherever she went.

It must be said that as Twitter gradually shows its dominance, [Gray Wind Capital] has also attracted the attention of countless capital tycoons around the world in the venture capital industry.

So Jennifer, the executive president, was naturally welcomed grandly when she came to Europe to visit the docks.

After all, being on board of [Gale Capital] means having the opportunity to board the giant ship of Twitter.

When it comes to investing, naturally the more famous the project, the better.

Therefore, Ma Liang was not surprised at all that Jennifer was able to easily secure Twitter's financing during this trip to Europe.

What really surprised him was that a big boss actually came up with the idea of ​​Gale Capital.

  PS: Alas, I have been staying up late these past few days coding, and the day and night have been reversed again. My body has begun to feel uncomfortable again, and my brain is still dizzy, which seriously affects my coding ideas.

I stayed up late again to finish writing these two chapters. Thank you for your support, brothers!
