Chapter 56: Aftermath (3)

The minister was more thoughtful, and he did not rush to file a complaint immediately, but collected all the lipsticks that Alice bought at that time, listed the brands and styles, and sent a telegram back to France, so that his friend who was engaged in the chemical industry at the time took it to the laboratory for material analysis.

According to the guidelines on the "Bosom Friend", the analysis report from the laboratory came out soon: the lipstick does contain a variety of elements that can make people poison weight metals, including lead and mercury, etc., and Alice's stillborn baby at that time did have signs of heavy metal poisoning.

After this authoritative report came out, Richard went all over the place - the aristocracy had their own channels of communication, and by the time they finally decided to take P&V to court, Richard had gathered more than two dozen celebrities from all over the world to attack at the same time!

P&V, on the other hand, is faced with a huge amount of fines that will almost cost them bankruptcy, and there are cancellations that fly like snowflakes as soon as the news comes out.

****

The news soon spread to Huaxia.

Others have nothing to do with themselves, but Qu Ning is one of the first people to know the news.

With the help of Tonks, the head of the Duke family in the United States helped Qu Ning make this buy-down transaction, and through the stock market leverage, Qu Ning almost earned more than 200,000 yuan in principal.

When Tonks came to tell Qu Ning the news, he himself couldn't believe it - who would have thought that a small fan of butterflies in Huaxia would be in the range of shijie, setting off stormy waves, and now P&V's stock price has fallen to the bottom, and even he regrets it. I knew that if I had been a little bolder, his worth now would make him not have to work so hard.

But in the same way, Tonks's confidence in this young lady of the Tang family army began to be cultivated from this time.

Qu Ning listened to him finish and took the money, but he didn't show any too excited look, but just a faint bow: "I'm sorry for you." ”

Calm and relaxed, unfazed.

"Now that the stock price has fallen to eight," Tonks asked tentatively, after a moment's thought, "do you think the price will continue to fall, young lady?" ”

Qu Ning didn't answer him immediately.

She looked at him with some concern, Tonks's attitude today was much more polite than the arrogance of the last time. Therefore, strength is the real guarantee, and other people's attitudes towards her depend on herself at most. Identity is important, but at other times, it doesn't always work.

"What does Mr. Duke think?" Qu Ning asked him, "With your Duke family's social status in the United States, you should have your own sources, right?" We're just a casual conversation between friends today, shouldn't Mr. Duke give you your own opinion first? After a pause, she smiled, "What's more, I'm trapped in the back house of the Tang family, but I'm just a woman sitting in a well watching the sky, and I was lucky to win last time." Now that I don't know anything about the situation in the United States, how can I analyze the ugliness? ”

She smiled softly and positioned the answer to this question on "friends chatting".

Tonks lowered his head and smiled: This young lady really can't slip her hands, and she doesn't take advantage of the slightest cheapness. If he was willing to come to ask for advice, then she would probably have to owe him a favor, and now that it was a reciprocal conversation, she would not take any loss.

This kind of profit-oriented style is very different from the average Oriental person.

Shocked, Tonks still said the news, he actually wanted to discuss it with the young lady and confirm his opinion: "Although the stock price of P&V Daily Chemical has fallen sharply in a few days, I look at it...... Maybe it's not close, right? After all, they are a daily chemical company, and lipstick is just one of them, although it is important, it has not yet reached the status of a pillar of life and death. The stock price has plummeted by half, which is already the result of people with intentions, but if P&V does go out of business and workers lose their jobs, the government will not sit idly by. What's more, now it's only because celebrities openly boycott lipstick and join forces to claim compensation, which has caused the stock price to fall extraordinarily, and when the court is really over, and the court will judge it in a few days, I think the stock price will be stable. So the space for this stock to operate ...... That's almost the end of it, right? ”

Qu Ning nodded.

Since he is on dry goods, she does not hide her selfishness: "As far as I know, it is inevitable that there is the toxicity of heavy metals in lipstick." In fact, this is also the accepted unspoken rule of this industry. ”

This problem of toxicity has not been solved in the 21st century in which she lives - it's just that lipsticks in this era are particularly toxic.

"When the trial really starts, if the court wants to sentence too severely, I guess that P&V companies are trying to offend other companies, and they will probably have to expose this unspoken rule in order to protect themselves. The law does not blame the public, and their stocks will not fall too hard at that time. Qu Ning groaned, "However, if it's me......" Qu Ning said and glanced at Tonks, "If it's me, there are ways to bankrupt them, the difference is just whether I want to or not." ”

Tonks' eyes lit up.

But Qu Ning had already picked up the teacup, crossed Erlang's legs with a smile, and said neatly: "But Mr. Duke, the discussion of friends is over here, as for the dry goods in the back, if you really want it, you are bound to pay the price." I've heard that the Duke family has been restless for a long time and is only engaged in the financial industry, and if you can merge P&V, you should be able to enter another monopoly industry, right? But I never help people in vain, let alone cross-industry, I think Tonks, you are just a small head in charge of Far Eastern affairs, I'm afraid you can't be the master. You better go back and discuss it with the elders, think about it, and ask me again. ”

She was confident, and what she threw was a chip that Tonks couldn't refuse! This is a sign that in a big family, the status is further advanced and can make achievements to ascend to the top.

But Tonks wants to know this, and the price she wants is not just a mere loan of 200,000 and a profit of 200,000.

Tonks is well aware of this. He thought about it for a while, and saw that she had already served tea to the guests, and knew that he couldn't ask for any dry goods today, so he was so anxious that he immediately went home and prepared to take a telegram.

After Qu Ning finished drinking this cup of tea, he asked someone to prepare a car and found Jin Yunzhu.

***

Kim Yoon-joo was very busy at this time.

The bosom friend became an instant hit, and the amount of subscriptions was almost a thousand miles a day.

The English version, because of the publicity of Alice's case, is almost a copy of the foreign woman in the concession, which is very considerable. There are even some people who don't speak English very well, so they send people over to ask if there are versions in other languages. Some people even came over to discuss whether to make the fashion and beauty part into a monthly magazine and send it back to the other side of the ocean once a month with the ship.

Some of Jin Yunzhu has already made her own decisions, while others have to wait for the real person in charge, Qu Ning, to make a decision.

The Chinese version has not yet been popularized in other remote provinces and cities, but around Kyoto, it is already selling very well.

It's just that Kim Yoon-joo's work of recruiting editors and reporters is not going well -- because it is something for women, it is required that editors from reporters should be women, preferably women. But one is that there are not many women who really have time, enthusiasm and ability, and second, they can't get too high salaries for the time being, so at present, almost everything still has to be done by Kim Yunzhu herself, when Qu Ning arrived, he saw that Kim Yunzhu was almost busy with a spinning top, and he couldn't stop for a moment.

Seeing that she was busy like this, Qu Ning quietly helped her deal with a few official documents, and when Jin Yunzhu reported to the boss that she had arrived, she didn't have time to report the good news to her, so she immediately "caught the strong man", with a face full of surprise: "Mrs. Tang, there are a lot of things for you to deal with." It's great that you're here......"

Qu Ning coughed dryly.

She rolled her eyes secretly: seeing Kim Yun-joo busy like this, she was really glad that she didn't do it herself. If she had to deal with everything in the newspaper herself, it was estimated that Tang Shaoshuai would have to force the newspaper to stop publication.

She put the Standard Chartered Bank check in her hand on Kim Yoon-joo's desk, and naturally diverted the topic, reached to the other side of the table, and picked up the manuscripts on it.

"That's what we're going to be in the next issue?"

She had already told Kim Yoon-joo before.

The reaction after the publication of this issue was almost all expected by her.

And the secret of this issue of the wealthy family is at the end of the article, the address of the bosom friend magazine is listed, and a line of small print is attached: Do you want your ideas to be on the front page of the bosom friend? If you have any thoughts on this issue, please let us know.

"These are a few of the letters I've picked up from readers." Kim Yoon-joo nodded and said, "According to your instructions, the two factions with the most fierce tones were chosen. She said with a somewhat staggering "tsk", "Actually, I really didn't expect that there would really be people who think that the relationship between Master Yun and Mrs. Yun is gone, so they should be divorced." ”

"This is normal," Qu Ning read the letters one by one, with a calm expression on his face, without any waves.

Kim Yunzhu remembered how angry she was when she saw the theories about "divorce of his wife" or something, and he was a little ashamed: Sure enough, compared with the young lady, he still can't get home, and he is happy and angry, alas.

Qu Ning read them one by one, nodded approvingly at Jin Yunzhu and smiled: "The few copies you chose are very representative and very good." ”

After complimenting her, she coughed a little embarrassed again, "But I'm not here to see these today, you can do something, I don't worry." I'm here today to ask you to go to a place, and we guess we're going to find a group of people to talk about something. ”

"......" Kim Yunzhu was about to burst into tears after hearing it, she looked at the sack of readers' letters in the corner that had not yet been read, and the editorial department with only three or two kittens, only felt that the corners of her mouth twitched, holding Zuihou a trace of luck, she asked Qu Ning, "How long will it take?" ”

"Well...... this" Qu stared at the sky, always feeling that it was very inhumane to drag her together when she was busy like this, "All day? ”

“……”

Kim Yoon-joo almost refused, but her eyes fell on the check on the table, and when she saw the numbers on it, she couldn't say anything about the original refusal.

Qu Ning's economic situation, she probably knows. She also knows how much the royal family's 120 dowry is worth. So what kind of meaning does this 200,000 represent, she knows better.

With such a sum of money, she also knows what kind of relief can be obtained from the originally stretched finances, and what kind of improvement can be made to the pressure on personnel.

So she hung her head and nodded silently in agreement: "Okay." ”

If Qu Ning knew that her moved look at this time was because she thought she had sold her dowry, she would probably really smile and say: Oh, this is really a wonderful misunderstanding.

The author has something to say: so it's too late...... I silently repented...... Boom~

In fact, I personally think these chapters are quite cool~~ There is wood?
