The aloof school beauty has been reborn and is now pursuing me relentlessly.

"Taking advantage of both sides?"

"What the hell?"

Inside the women's clothing store, Zhao Ke, sitting on a small sofa, listened with bewildered expressions, her eyes swirling like mosquito coils.

"Ran-ge, please explain it to me again, I didn't understand."

Lin Ran laughed and patiently explained it to her best friend again:

"it's actually really easy."

"We want to make the cartoon cookie brand a hit and promote it as widely as possible in Yunaan."

"It's simply about leveraging the power of department stores and small convenience stores."

"Let them first accept cartoon cookies at the counter, and use their shops and customer traffic to let more customers discover the existence of cartoon cookies."

"But under normal circumstances, both shopping malls and convenience stores have their own fixed procurement channels and display arrangements."

"We will not easily allow unfamiliar foreign goods to enter our premises."

"Hao Zai Lai Bakery is a new store that hasn't opened yet, so it doesn't have the qualifications or confidence to negotiate with others."

Zhao Ke nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I understand. Does that mean we can't negotiate?"

Lin Ran smiled:

"There is a way."

"It's okay to come back to the bakery."

"But what if we approach small convenience stores under the name of a department store?"

"Should we approach the department store under the guise of a collection of small convenience stores?"

This is a standard method that would be known in later generations as "getting something for nothing".

To put it simply...

If you want to eat hot pot in your dorm, tell your roommate A:

"We're having hot pot today! We have the pot and meat, but we're missing vegetables. Could you bring some?"

Then tell roommate B:

"We're having hot pot today! We have the pot and vegetables, all we're missing is meat. Could you bring some with you?"

Finally, I told my roommate C:

"The vegetables and hot pot meat are all ready. Just bring the pot, and we'll start cooking tonight!"

In this way, you don't spend anything, but you can still enjoy a hot pot meal that night.

And so on.

The same principle applies to leveraging the strengths of both department stores and convenience stores.

They used the guise of being a partner of the online mall to inform convenience stores that they had new products ready to be promoted and distributed them to various small convenience stores for pilot testing.

With the prestige and authority of department stores, small convenience stores are more likely to be trusted.

Then turn around and look for the online store.

Tell people that you have integrated a large number of convenience store resources and have already rolled out and put your products on the shelves.

The online marketplace is more likely to believe that your bakery has sufficient strength and capital, and is willing to accept cooperation.

This time.

Zhao Ke finally understood completely, and looking at his best friend in front of him, he was utterly astonished:

Holy crap! You can do that?!

"Ran-ge is awesome!!"

But after exclaiming in amazement and praise, Xiao Zhao suddenly wondered:

But then again—

"What does this have to do with you making the class monitor wear black stockings?"

Before Lin Ran could speak.

A clear and pleasant female voice came through:

"It's very simple."

"He's trying to fool people."

"We need someone to cooperate in putting on a show."

……

The changing room curtain was lifted, and Su Qingyan walked out, accompanied by her best friend Yuan Tingting.

This is completely different from her usual simple and pure style.

At this moment, the girl seemed to have been completely transformed, becoming a different person.

A simple and sophisticated black suit-style pencil skirt paired with a white turtleneck shirt exudes elegance and sophistication.

Beneath the slightly taut skirt were a pair of shapely, slender legs encased in black stockings. The black stilettos on her feet complemented the entire outfit perfectly, making the girl's already tall figure appear even more slender and graceful.

The once neat ponytail is now tied up at the back of the head, paired with just the right amount of light makeup, giving off a cool and mature charm.

If.

The girl in the previous story was a beautiful and aloof school beauty.

Standing before Lin Ran and Zhao Ke at this moment was a cool and glamorous career woman.

It is even more breathtaking and awe-inspiring in its beauty.

Even Lin Ran, at this moment, saw her school beauty deskmate walking out.

Everyone was momentarily shocked and dazed.

Such a beautiful classmate.

She bore an 80% resemblance to the stunningly beautiful woman with a cool and radiant appearance he met sixteen years later.

Zhao Ke was completely stunned:

"Fuck——"

"This...this is the class monitor?"

"Excuse me, ma'am, you're blocking my view of the fairy—ouch, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts..."

Then, Yuan Tingting, who was so angry that her teeth itched, grabbed her ear and dragged her aside for a lecture.

Chun Chun deliberately courted death.

However, this commotion did calm Lin Ran down a bit, and she turned to Zhao Ke and Yuan Tingting to explain:

"Whether we're negotiating partnerships with shopping malls or convenience stores."

"Everyone needs to have a convincing identity, otherwise the other party may not necessarily buy what you say."

Zhao Ke looked at Lin Ran with a puzzled expression:

"So your identity is..."

Yuan Tingting, standing next to her, also looked curious.

Lin Ran smiled, stood up, straightened his collar, and remained calm and composed.

"The person in charge of channel liaison for the lower-tier market from a boutique food chain brand in Hangzhou."

Yuan Tingting and Zhao Ke were stunned.

Meanwhile, someone leisurely walked over to the school beauty's deskmate, took out a pair of black-rimmed glasses from his pocket, and handed them to her:

"this."

"It's my secretary."

The girl happily accepted the glasses and put them on.

With the addition of black-rimmed glasses, the cool and glamorous career woman gains an extra touch of breathtaking charm.

Zhao Ke looked at Lin Ran, then at Su Qingyan, his mouth agape so wide it almost fell to the ground:

Holy crap! Cosplay!?

“You guys—”

"Playing this fancy game?!"

Yuan Tingting couldn't help but lean closer to her best friend and whisper:

"Qingyan, you've agreed to help?"

Su Qingyan remained calm and composed.

"It's perfectly reasonable for classmates to help each other."

"and--"

The girl's lips curved slightly into a smile:

"It's quite interesting, isn't it?"

……

As a reborn person.

Lin Ran doesn't fight unprepared.

After everything is ready—

When someone, dressed in a smart suit, enters a convenience store in a small county town with his beautiful young secretary.

Chat politely with the convenience store owners.

Polite and composed.

The boy's demeanor and poise far exceeded the composure expected of someone his age.

They had prepared relevant documents and explanatory materials in hand.

Standing behind him was a stunningly beautiful woman with a cool and bright demeanor, whose temperament could not possibly have been cultivated in a small county like Yunan.

This immediately convinced the shrewd yet honest convenience store owners to believe it to a large extent.

These two are definitely not ordinary people!

In addition, small convenience stores are not so particular about the procurement and display of goods.

Looking at these fresh and fun cartoon-themed cookie products, business owners can easily gauge their popularity.

Anyway, I didn't lose anything.

They readily agreed to purchase a portion according to their quota and place it in a prime display position in the store.

First stop, secured.

……

The second stop is just around the corner.

Quanlefu Supermarket, the largest chain shopping mall in Yunan County.

The same routine was repeated.

The two of them walked into the mall with such an imposing presence, and when they found a shop assistant and asked the manager...

They almost intimidated the shop assistants, who thought it was a senior executive from the company coming to inspect.

Enter the manager's office.

A detailed description of the documents and materials was presented.

They also added photos of the cartoon cookies that had just been washed and put on the shelves at various convenience stores as proof.

Sitting at the table, Lin Ran spoke calmly and eloquently, making the manager nod in approval.

It seemed like a cooperation agreement was about to be reached.

But then a sudden change occurred.

The middle-aged, balding manager surnamed Pang, who always appeared to be all smiles and good at making money, looked up at Lin Ran, suddenly narrowed his eyes, and said with a half-smile:

"Young man, you've said so much."

"But given your identity—"

"It's fake, isn't it?"

In a word.

This suddenly made the atmosphere in the manager's office turn cold.

It was as if the disguise was about to be exposed.

Lin Ran's eyes narrowed slightly, but his expression remained calm and unchanged.

The little Q-version figure in my mind leisurely and calmly sipped his tea:

【really. 】

[So, what's next?]

Plan B.

"Manager Pang has a good eye."

A clear, melodious female voice suddenly rang out.

Su Qingyan, who had been standing quietly to the side, dutifully playing the role of secretary, suddenly moved at this moment.

She walked forward with graceful and light steps.

Lin Ran stood up and stepped aside.

Then, the girl casually took off her black-rimmed glasses.

Her original allure faded, replaced by a cool, bright, and elegant aura as she calmly took her seat at the table.

Her right leg gracefully rose and gently rested on her left knee.

He casually leaned back in his chair.

At this moment, Su Qingyan seemed to have switched back to her original form, unleashing the aura of the icy female CEO of a listed company in her previous life.

Looking up at Manager Pang, the woman in the large-sized limited-time return outfit smiled slightly, a faint yet sharp curve appearing on her lips:

"I am the one in charge."

"The little guy next to me is my younger brother."
