I just want to sell products, but you're forcing me to perform talents.

Chapter 355 Childhood Sweethearts No Match for Unexpected Treasure

The ultimate goal of celebrities is to sell products, and the ultimate goal of selling products is to sell physical goods.

Venturing into physical retail was a development strategy Ye Xian had set for himself from the very beginning. This time, he chose to go into the water business, naturally because the industry was extremely profitable.

Hai Ma coconut juice and Hai Lao Ji are different from other types of baijiu such as Ye Xiaobai, Zui Hong Lou, and Zui Gui Jiu.

The liquor industry has long been a red ocean, and even if brands like Ye Xiaobai emerge as dark horses, it will be difficult for them to carve out a niche for themselves.

Coconut milk and herbal tea drinks represent entirely new avenues for competition.

Even if capital comes to seize the market soon, Ye Xian believes that with his prior planning, the reputation of 40 million fans, and the royal merchant channels, those later capital will have to think twice before trying to compete with him.

Moreover, the offline business Ye Xian is about to establish is a unicorn in this other world. If it succeeds, it will immediately become a money-printing machine, bringing Ye Xian a continuous stream of wealth.

Everything is progressing steadily now, and it's a race against time!

Whoever can capture the customer's mind first will win the market.

……

The next day, Ye Xian woke up from his sleep and stared at the ceiling for a while.

Without the dragon boat training camp, Ye Xian only had morning runs left to exercise, and he didn't run every day because running too often would damage his knees.

Ye Xian usually runs every two days, but he won't run if it rains, and will instead exercise indoors.

Now he has more free time, and even though there are many things to deal with at the company, he is much more relaxed than before.

After all, the branch office's operations were on track, and he no longer needed to keep a close eye on things.

I turned on my phone, and all sorts of messages started popping up.

There were reports from company management, congratulations from friends in the industry on the release of his new song, and messages from Qiu Qing inviting him to have breakfast together.

Looking at the date, today is June 29th. Ye Xian suddenly realized that it seemed like this girl's birthday was approaching.

Qiu Qing is half a month younger than Ye Xian. Her birthday is July 2nd. When they were little, their families often celebrated their birthdays together.

Now that she's older, I haven't really prepared a separate birthday celebration for her.

"Well, I didn't have many scenes on the 2nd."

Ye Xian looked at the filming schedule sent by the production team, thought for a moment, and sent a message to Director Jia, asking him to tease the crew and give him a day off.

There was no live broadcast that day, which gave Ye Xian a lot of free time.

After thinking for a moment, Ye Xian sent Sun Li another message: "I have something to do on the 2nd, so I'm canceling all social engagements and meetings."

Sun Li replied instantly: "Received, boss."

The problem is, how do we get it approved for her?

Ye Xian was somewhat worried.

Whether he's in another world or on Earth, he's a total straight man, and he's really not good at making his childhood sweetheart happy on her birthday.

After thinking for a while without any clue, Qiu Qing sent him a head-banging emoji, and Ye Xian quickly replied, "I'll come pick you up."

The reply came instantly: "Lazy piggy, finally up!"

Ye Xian chuckled: "Only pigs are eager to eat."

Qiu Qing: "(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻"

……

After breakfast, they arrived at the filming location. During a break in makeup, Ye Xian dismissed Qiu Qing to get everyone the scripts for the day and asked Jiang Tian, ​​who was standing nearby, "Sister Tian, ​​how do women usually want to celebrate their birthdays?"

Jiang Tian and Liu Xiaoxiao exchanged a glance, a strange glint in their eyes. Pretending not to understand, they asked, "That depends on how old this woman is."

"About the same age as me."

Ye Xian gave a vague answer.

He suddenly realized that he might have asked the wrong person.

"Young people? It's simple, go out for karaoke, have a party, eat and drink."

Jiang Tian sat up straight, and the makeup artists behind the three of them also perked up their ears.

"A house party? Won't that be too noisy?"

Ye Xian would definitely not choose to go to karaoke.

Ye Xian was somewhat resistant to the idea of ​​a house party. Based on his understanding of Qiu Qing, he knew she probably didn't like noisy environments.

"How about we go for a candlelight dinner?"

Liu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but interject, "During a romantic candlelight dinner, the two gazed deeply into each other's eyes, and then confessed their feelings..."

"What confession?"

Ye Xian sat up a little awkwardly: "It's just my birthday."

Liu Xiaoxiao's beautiful eyes were full of laughter, Jiang Tian couldn't help but laugh too, and the three makeup artists couldn't even hold their eyebrow pencils properly.

Ye Xian's words were clearly a case of trying to hide something, but no one dared to expose him.

"It would be best to buy a necklace or something as a gift. The price is secondary; the important thing is the thought behind it."

Jiang Tian said sourly, "It's just a birthday, so let's not make it so complicated. Not that many women care about material things; what everyone cares about more is companionship."

"accompany?"

Ye Xian fell silent.

Several people glanced at him, but he was completely oblivious until Qiu Qing's return broke the eerie silence.

"You don't have many scenes today, here's the script."

Qiu Qing was unaware of the strange atmosphere in the room, but she keenly noticed that Jiang Tian and Liu Xiaoxiao would occasionally glance at her.

Several makeup artists also seemed a bit off.

This left her feeling somewhat bewildered.

Did they find out I didn't wash my hair today?

That shouldn't be the case, I was wearing a hat.

……

Jiang Tian looked down and texted Liu Xiaoxiao: "Is it Qiu Qing's birthday?"

Liu Xiaoxiao silently picked up her phone as well: "It's obvious!"

Jiang Tian: "Will you confess your feelings on my birthday?"

Liu Xiaoxiao: "A straight man like me? No way!"

Jiang Tian: "That's good!"

Liu Xiaoxiao: "What does it have to do with you if I don't confess?"

Jiang Tian: "Hmph, there's a saying that childhood sweethearts can't compete with someone who suddenly appears out of nowhere! Before anyone confesses, everyone has a chance!"

Liu Xiaoxiao: "I wish you success!"

Jiang Tian: "Don't you want to?"

Liu Xiaoxiao: "Hehe!"

……

After filming wrapped up that day, Ye Xian returned to the winery. The group of people who had been waiting there, under Sun Li's arrangement, went into the house one by one to report to Ye Xian according to the importance and urgency of their tasks.

Now everyone is used to this way of working, which has greatly improved efficiency, and no one will dare to cut in line. Everyone is happy with it.

Even Qiu's mother agreed with Sun Li's decision, as she genuinely felt sorry for Ye Xian.

While waiting in line outside, Qiu's mother chatted with Sun Li and others. Suddenly, as if remembering something, Qiu's mother slapped her thigh and said, "Qingqing's birthday is coming up, and we haven't prepared a gift for her yet this year."

"Birthday? What's the date?"

Sun Li asked casually.

"The 2nd! The day after tomorrow!" Qiu's mother said casually.

"Number 2?"

Sun Li sat up abruptly. Seeing Sun Li's startled reaction, Qiu's mother asked in surprise, "What's wrong? Is something wrong with Number 2?"

"Oh? It's nothing, it's nothing! Brother Xian sent a message this morning saying that he has something to do on the 2nd and asked me to cancel all social engagements and meetings."

Sun Li began to realize what was happening.

Upon hearing this, Qiu's mother's face lit up with joy.

Ding Zhan, who was standing to the side, also understood what was going on.

Well, you're really something, kid. You're even better than your old man was back in the day!

Wang Dalong and the others also had somewhat strange expressions: "Is the boss's wife having a birthday party?"
