After hearing Zhou Qingyu's inquiry, Zhang Dachuan pondered for a moment and said:
"Let's wait a little longer and wait until the situation in Shanghai stabilizes."
Now that he has not established a firm foothold in Shanghai, it is not a good choice to rashly expand the industry.
Zhou Qingyu couldn't help but feel relieved when he heard this.
As long as it doesn't develop now, there will still be time, and she must seize this time.
Otherwise, when Zhang Dachuan expands all his industries to Shanghai, it means that other people will follow, and it will be difficult for her to have time alone with Zhang Dachuan like this.
"By the way, what's going on in the store today? Why is it so busy so late?" Zhang Dachuan suddenly asked.
"Ah?" Zhou Qingyu was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and then chose to tell the truth:
"Actually, the problem at the store was very small and was solved shortly after I went there."
Zhang Dachuan was stunned: "Then you..."
Zhou Qingyu mustered up the courage to look directly at Zhang Dachuan, his cheeks slightly red:
"I'm preparing a gift, especially for you, Brother Okawa."
She deliberately expressed it in such words that could easily cause misunderstanding, just to see Zhang Dachuan's reaction.
Unfortunately, she could not see the surprise or surprise she wanted to see on Zhang Dachuan's face.
Zhang Dachuan's first reaction was confusion: "What gift?"
She looked at Zhang Dachuan with a smile and said:
"I won't tell you, it's a secret, but you will know it soon. If you are interested, you can take a guess and see if you can guess it right."
Zhou Qingyu pursed his lips and smiled even more proudly.
She believed that Zhang Dachuan could not guess what the gift was in his dream.
Because what she prepared was simply an extraordinary "gift".
During this period, she has been in contact with the management staff of Huayan Company. Zhou Qingyu also learned about the news of the accident with Huayan Company's products after arriving in Shanghai.
It is said that the daughter of Hua Yan’s boss Hua Kangren entered Hua Yan’s skin care product research and development department after returning from studying abroad, and was specifically responsible for the research and development of Hua Yan’s skin care products.
Because she studied biotechnology and human cell biology abroad, she is considered a professional counterpart.
After Hua Kangren's daughter joined the R&D department of Huayan Company, she launched several excellent products. It was these products that enabled Huayan Company's performance to rise rapidly, and it was once extremely prosperous, with its market share reaching one-third of Hanmei Group's.
However, at the beginning of this year, when Huayan’s latest skin care product was released, a shocking scandal suddenly broke out among employees in the company:
Several employees in the Huayan R&D department involved in new product development have developed serious skin diseases!
As soon as this news came out, the outside world was in an uproar.
Just when people were doubting the authenticity of the news, another Huayan R&D staff publicly stated that Huayan's new products had not completed quality and safety testing in accordance with the prescribed testing procedures.
In other words, Huayan Company directly put products with potential safety hazards into the market for the sake of profit.
"This product can cause serious side effects after long-term use!"
These are the exact words of the developer.
Like the first domino falling, the scandal broke, the developers confirmed it, and then the victims came forward.
Soon someone who claimed to be a volunteer who had accepted Huayan's new product clinical trial and was also an employee of Huayan Company came forward and pointed to the large areas of chickenpox and ulcers on his face, indicating that he had used Huayan. The consequences of Yanxin products.
The public was overwhelmed by the news one after another, leaving little time to judge whether it was true or false.
Just when a few rational people wondered whether this was a smear campaign by a competitor, a piece of bombshell news emerged.
That was a candid video.
In the picture, the situation of Hua Kangren’s daughter, the person in charge of product research and development of Huayan Company, is even more serious than that of the previous “volunteer employees”.
She, who was once known as the most beautiful R&D doctor, has completely changed in the video. Her pretty and fair face was gone. Not only her face, but everywhere she could see all over her body was covered with horrible chickenpox!
This secretly filmed video became the last straw for Huayan Company.
Even the big boss's daughter has such a serious problem, so who would doubt the authenticity of what other whistleblowers said before?
Public opinion became one-sided.
Everyone believes that there must be something wrong with the new product developed by Huayan!
Suddenly, the reputation that the entire Huayan company had spent nearly ten years building collapsed instantly, and product sales plummeted. Many customers who had just purchased Huayan products rushed to supermarkets, department stores, counters and other places to request returns.
In this way, in less than a month, Huayan went from a local star company in Shanghai to a street rat that everyone wanted to beat!
What's more serious is that due to the huge cost of product research and development, coupled with the consumption of previously booked production raw materials, publicity and distribution, etc., now the new product has not only failed to recover the cost, but has also suffered an avalanche of sales, leading to Huayan's financial books. It quickly showed a huge loss.
In less than half a year, continuous losses brought Huayan to the edge of bankruptcy.
And until now, the daughter of the Huayan boss has not recovered. The condition has even become more serious and her life is in danger.
According to the information Zhou Qingyu found, the female doctor could only lie in the intensive care unit, barely maintaining her life.
To be honest, if you only look at the appearance of this series of things, it is indeed difficult for people to believe in Huayan's products.
But Zhou Qingyu is different.
Before she came to Shanghai, she had heard of the Huayan brand.
At that time, she was still going to school in a small county town. Huayan's reputation was very good. Although it was a bit expensive, it was worth the money. Many girls around her were using it.
Even she wanted a set of gorgeous skin care products at that time, but she couldn't afford them.
With a solid reputation and no worries about sales, Huayan's people would not choose to rush for quick success and launch new products on the market without considering product safety issues.
Nowadays, the public opinion about Huayan Company is not as fierce as when the incident first broke out.
Zhou Qingyu carefully looked at the scandals that broke out at the beginning of the year, and the exposure of each incident seemed so logical.
The anonymous revelations, the conscience-stricken researchers’ proactive confirmation, the appearance of the victim, and the secretly photographed beauty’s condition all seemed to have been arranged by someone.
Intuition told Zhou Qingyu that all this was definitely not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
Too normal and it seems abnormal.
