"I'm very glad this plan created such a heated discussion," Hazel said quietly. "Now, let me answer your questions. Ask whatever you want."
The executives looked at each other, and eventually, Chris stood up. Although he still had a little dislike for Hazel, he was very interested in her great idea.
"We have the following main problems." He asked, "The web drama has really been very popular lately, but can these product placements and the subsequent coffee series really attract new customers effectively? And can our limited funding pay for advertising in the drama?"
"You can look at a few pictures, and this is the research I did in the last three days." She said simply, and Mandy put pictures on the screen.
"The web drama, which has been invested in by Joshua Hazel Pictures, had a huge number of fans before it even started filming. After being released, the amount of views and topics keeps rising, and you can see it visually from the pictures," she said quietly. "Plus, it's an inspirational drama, so it wouldn't look bad out of place to have product placement. It is watched by mostly students and white-collar workers. They are major consumers of coffee."
Everyone in the room nodded as they quite agreed with Hazel.
She continued, "So in terms of sales, you don't have to worry about that. The return on this placement will be substantial. As for new coffees that are tailored to the leading characters of the web drama, you need not worry about it too much. We won't develop new flavors but will change the package. Besides, we can invite the crew to cooperate, which means both parties invest in it and share the risk. As for the investment amount, you can rest assured that as long as I am in charge, the investment amount will be enough."
She didn't explain specifically, but the executives somehow believed that she could really solve these problems. Her simple speech had completely cleared up the doubts in everyone's mind. The more they read the plan, the more they thought it would work.
"Do you have any other questions?" Hazel said quietly.
Everyone looked at each other before all shook their heads.
"Please show your plan, Director Livingston." She calmly raised her hand.
"Don't bother," said Chris with a wry smile. "Your plan is better. I throw in the towel."
He was really convinced. In fact, he had been preparing plans to increase sales and had originally intended to reform the system after he was promoted to the position of manager. But he didn't expect to meet Hazel.
This gave him a feeling that he was inferior. In the face of Hazel's plan, he realized that he was too far behind her and that he shouldn't have hidden his plans.
Hazel was surprised because she knew her plan would win, but she didn't expect to win so easily.
"What do you think?" She smiled and looked at all the people in the room.
Everyone was slightly stunned because of Hazel's confidence and abilities; they believed her every word. Some people who had been a bit doubtful suddenly forgot what they were going to say.
"Since nobody has any objection, does that mean I won?" asked Hazel blandly, but her eyes were full of irrepressible joy.
Chris stole a look at Hazel but couldn't help being stunned because he saw the secret joy that she had tried hard to hide.
There was a strange emotion in his heart. Previously, he was too concerned about Hazel's abilities and whether she was as bad as she was rumored to be. But now, seeing her happiness, he suddenly realized that Hazel was just a kid graduating school…
Would he be too hard on her?
"Congratulations…" Chris stood up and said heartily. Then he raised his hands and clapped. The others followed, and suddenly applause filled the room.
"Thank you," Hazel said happily. The feeling of being recognized by others really made her happy.
Suddenly, she looked at Chris and said seriously, "Even if you congratulate me, the apology still needs to be written!"
The applause stopped, and the crowd burst into laughter.
Chris lowered his head, a little embarrassed, and even though Hazel didn't give him any praise for his efforts, he wasn't angry.
When the meeting was over, and Hazel had returned to her office, Chris knocked on her doo.
"This is the apology letter I wrote." h handed a few papers to her, "Please have a look at it."
"You did write it," she said awkwardly. "Wasn't expecting it. In fact, I just said it."
"I should have written it," he said, looking even more sheepish. "I did scorn you and all of the women."
"It doesn't matter. It is never too late to learn from a mistake." She simply leafed through it, "Oops, good writing, genuine emotion, and sincere attitude."
After that, she returned it to him.
"Then I'll put it on the bulletin board in a minute," he said.
She asked uneasily, "You won't hate me for this, will you?"
"No, no!" He shook his head hastily. "I was wrong about you. I thought you were so young, but you could act as a manager, so you must have a strong backer and have no abilities. Besides, I heard people say…"
"Say what?" she asked curiously.
He was hesitant for a while. After glancing across the room and seeing there were only him and Hazel, he plucked up his courage and said, "Some people said you're the mistress of a big man at headquarters, and you obtained this position by 'sleeping' with him. This was just a springboard for you. You'll get promoted to the headquarters of Denmark Group three months later regardless of your merits. Manager Crowe, is that true?"
After that, he looked more nervously at Hazel, wondering why he was a bit nervous.
"It's literally slander!" She was very irritated. "Nonsense! Bullshit!"
She was being called a mistress, she and Joshua were serious lovers. What is sleeping together? She had tried to tease Joshua and sleep with him several times, but in the end, they stopped before it went that far.
These gossipers were really hateful.
He was relieved and couldn't help but ask, "Are you married?"
After asking this question, his face was strangely pale. Why did he ask her if she was married?
"Not yet, I'm so young!" She didn't think much about it before she answered truthfully.
