Chapter 44. Deputy Store

Anxin's clothing store hasn't even started yet, but it already harbors ambitious dreams of competing with those well-known high-end foreign brands.

It's like wanting to swallow a fat man in one bite without fearing choking on the attempt.

Chu Xinxin looked at Zhou Bin coldly and said, "Do you have any objections to our ideas? If we don't set a grand goal, are we supposed to live aimlessly like you?"

Zhou Bin is the second son of the Zhou family, overshadowed by his older brother who created miracles in the business world right after entering a prestigious university.

Although the older brother's brilliance has enveloped the entire Zhou family, making people only hear about the Zhou family's eldest son and not the second,

there are reasons within Zhou Bin himself!

After realizing he couldn't compare to his brother, he began to give up and stop learning, even attending school now because of Zhou family's sponsorship.

The Zhou parents are not biased; how could there be favoritism towards their own children?

The Zhou family had also given Zhou Bin some business resources before, hoping he would try and achieve something.

But Zhou Bin only wanted to wait for dividends, not participating in any business battles.

Even the resources given by the Zhou family were squandered by him.

Coupled with Zhou Bin's bullying and misbehavior in school, his reputation spread, and when the Zhou family had no choice, Zhou Bin was essentially abandoned by them.

His self-indulgence is laughable and pitiful, yet he wants to spread this negative influence to others.

"Why bother with these irrelevant people and waste our time?"

Anxin lazily yawned and spoke with a somewhat comforting tone.

Zhou Bin turned red with anger as his family affairs were now being discussed and mocked freely.

He couldn't bear to be angry at Chu Xinxin and could only sarcastically remark to Anxin, "With ambitions higher than the sky but a fate thinner than grass, I'll see what achievements you can make. Just don't end up losing everything!"

"Naturally, we can't compare to you. Given a small business fund, you ended up owing a mountain of debt."

Anxin chuckled softly and spoke slowly.

The reason Zhou Bin gave up was because he had no achievements in business.

Everyone abandoned projects, but he relished them, even going so far as to pour huge amounts of money into them, only to return like a stray dog in disgrace.

This incident became a joke among many people in his previous life, even leading to a drop in the Zhou family's stock prices.

Gao Qilan stood uncomfortably to the side, listening to their discussion.

Business, networking investments—these terms were too distant for her, preventing her from integrating into their atmosphere.

"Can you leave? I don't think our current atmosphere suits your presence!"

Chu Xinxin mercilessly spoke, wanting to drive Zhou Bin away altogether.

Zhou Bin stared in disbelief.

Even though the Zhou family had given him up, he was still the legitimate second son.

No one had ever dared to expel him like this.

This was tantamount to trampling on his dignity and even grinding it further.

"Fine, I'll wait and see how you manage to run this big store into the ground!"

Zhou Bin left in anger.

Gao Qilan quietly moved aside and said, "I don't understand your collaboration either; I'll go get you some water!"

Anxin shook her head: "No need, later this store will be under your management. It's good for you to learn too."

Gao Qilan pointed at herself in disbelief: "Me? Learn? I'm not capable; I've never touched these things before."

Anxin's trust deeply moved Gao Qilan.

But she was also aware of her capabilities, which had nothing to do with the current collaboration, not even her profession related to business.

This wasn't something one could learn just by wanting to; it required certain talents.

"In business, I've seen many geniuses. They rely on their abilities, even if they've never encountered these things before, they can get started immediately. But there are fools like Zhou Bin, clearly given ample learning conditions by his family, yet he still managed to bankrupt himself."

Chu Xinxin consoled.

"If you don't want to touch these things, why not come and be my model? How about that?"

Chu Xinxin excitedly suggested after looking Gao Qilan up and down.

"I think that's feasible."

Before Gao Qilan could refuse, Anxin had already nodded her head, agreeing to the matter first.

In her previous life, Gao Qilan became an internet celebrity, initially because her figure caught the eye of a talent scout, moving from modeling to internet fame.

Moreover, Anxin felt that with Gao Qilan's current figure, being a model was more than adequate.

"Can I really do it? I won't embarrass you, right?"

Among the glamorous front lines of the fashion industry as a model!

Although Gao Qilan didn't believe she could, she was still very向往.

"Of course, you can. You definitely have the best body proportions I've seen, and your looks are exceptionally striking. Having you as a model is underutilizing your talent; you could even act."

Chu Xinxin wasn't exaggerating.

The two essential elements of a model are face and figure. Gao Qilan, unappreciated at home, was neither emaciated nor overly slim, perfectly meeting the model standards.

"Then I'll give it a try."

Gao Qilan looked at Anxin for support, seeing encouragement in her eyes, and finally made up her mind to nod.

"That's right. What were you saying about promotional strategies earlier?"

Anxin had only mentioned a sentence or two about her promotional methods, but Chu Xinxin still glimpsed significant business opportunities within them.

If these strategies could be applied to this store, it would undoubtedly present a great opportunity.

"Start with advertising, no discounts, maybe just some small gifts. Don't lower our standards before the store even opens."

These wealthy people aren't lacking money; they don't value those so-called discounts. What they want is the privilege of buying something others can't afford.

That superior mentality is enough for them to spend lavishly on themselves.

"Besides the quality and style of our clothes, our main focus is on service. I want this store to be profitable in the first month."

Anxin boldly declared her ambitious goal. Chu Xinxin looked at her in disbelief, almost doubting her own ears.

Profitable in the first month—was Anxin crazy?
