Chapter 32.3: Love Square

　　In a relaxed tone, Jiang Dai stated, “For what we have achieved today, it was the result of everyone in Bao Li working together wholeheartedly. To all those present, you are an indispensable member that makes up Bao Li’s foundation, so please don’t push all the credits to me alone. When I first entered the company 3 months ago, I was entrusted with a mission at a critical and difficult time. Back then, all my understanding of Bao Li merely stemmed from my meager research. It was everyone here who supported me every step of the way, and we will do the same henceforth.”

　　Now that the management team had interacted with Jiang Dai for such a long time, it could be said that they were familiar with her personality.

　　Jiang Dai was never a person who loved to say empty words and did not even act like a woman whenever she entered her work mode——she was strictly impartial and incorruptible and never gave anyone any leeway for negotiation. Whenever anyone made a mistake, she would reprimand them severely.

　　At this juncture, all her words were spoken from her heart, and everyone present was able to sense that deep down, she thought the honor belonged to everyone. 

　　As for those who were easily touched, they had already begun tearing up.

　　“President Jiang is right. We must stand together through thick and thin.”

　　“Bao Li is a big family, so we have to stand together through thick and thin.”

　　“Now that we have all come through the most difficult days, we will certainly continue to join hands from now on, under the leadership of President Jiang.”

　　Jiang Dai:

Do you have a death wish? Why did you have to turn me into such an ugly meme???

　　Bai Zhi:

Hahahahahahahahahahaha! You actually thought I was the one who created these?

Am I that talented in your eyes?!

How are those ugly? You clearly look exceptionally adorable, alright?

　　Jiang Dai:

It wasn’t you?

　　Bai Zhi:

Of course not! I saved them from the comments on your Weibo page! Your fans are simply far too talented!

　　Now that things had panned out this way, Jiang Dai felt somewhat breathless. After she had contacted the person-in-charge of the live streaming platform, she went to bed. As soon as she got up in the morning, she washed up and got ready before rushing to the office. She had been swamped with work throughout the day that she had not gone into Weibo at all.

　　She had absolutely no idea that viewers on her live stream last night had taken screenshots and created numerous adorable or silly memes.

　　Logging into Weibo, Jiang Dai began to browse through the site, discovering her memes had actually appeared as one of the lower rankings in the most searched hashtags.

　　Sh*t, she was so screwed. At this rate, all the netizens in the country would be using her memes.

　　With this in mind, Jiang Dai replied to Bai Zhi :

Currently, it feels like I can’t breathe.

　　Bai Zhi:

Hahahahahahahaha! Come on now! They are so adorable, alright? Don’t you know that countless female celebrities earnestly wish to be turned into memes? It’s a shame that not all celebrities’ memes are not as appealing. As such, only 2 or 3 netizens are still sharing them. Whereas, your set of memes are so hilarious that I am sure they will be widely used.

　　Upon reading this, Jiang Dai was rendered speechless.

　　Bai Zhi:

You have to trust me! The reason your memes are so well-received is mainly due to your exceptional beauty. It is the sort of beauty that takes people’s breath away. If the memes look very silly, it will evoke a sense of gap moe. In any case, this sort of effect is absolutely fantastic.

　　With this, Jiang Dai could only open the latest report sent by the person-in-charge of various sales zones. Looking at these beautiful numbers, she could only inwardly accept that she was forced into this.

　　In this day and age, one certainly had to pay the price if they wished to revive their family business. _(:з」∠)_

　　……

　　By the time it was 5 in the evening, Jiang Dai had finally settled some tricky tasks. Since there was no need for her to work overtime today, she was considering whether to get off work earlier and head back to rest.

　　Just as she was finishing up her work, she received a phone call. Liang Jingche had called to notify her personally that her 800 million dollars loan had officially been approved by Feng Qi Bank’s headquarters that was based in Country M.

　　Upon hearing that, Jiang Dai could not help but be pleasantly surprised. “Chairman Liang, didn’t you mention before that I am required to submit the latest sales report? I was planning to submit it to the Branch Manager within this week, but who would have thought it has already been approved?”

　　With a deep and magnetic voice, Liang Jingche answered in a businesslike manner, “During this short evaluation period, Bao Li has proven the value of its patents before all the consumers in this entire country, overpowering the strongest rival amidst the domestic brands, Ya Li Group. When it comes to Bao Li’s sales record, it has achieved the top ranking in the semi-annual domestic sales volume. The headquarters will verify the latest news of its debtors promptly, so there is no need for Miss Jiang to make further submissions of Bao Li’s information.”

　　Now that the bank had given the green light for this massive loan, Jiang Dai had full confidence of attaining the Title Sponsor spot of the upcoming “Youth Camp” talent search variety show.

　　Reflecting back, she seemed to have spent her week exceptionally smoothly. 

　　Dealing with a massive blow to the Zhang clan, it engendered Ya Li’s offline and online sales to remain at zero for several consecutive days, and their share price continued to plummet.

　　Jiang Dai had already made the necessary arrangements to accompany her dad to Zurich for a check-up next Tuesday.

　　From last night’s live stream to all products of the sub-brands becoming out of stock, including acquiring the 800 million dollars loan!

　　Brimming with tons of luck, Jiang Dai’s mood turned for the better. “Now that such crucial cooperation has reached an agreement, why don’t I treat Chairman Liang to dinner? When will it be convenient for you?” 

　　Feng Qi Bank was a private bank, and its headquarters, simply put, was also managed by Liang Jingche’s father. For the loan to be approved so quickly, it could not do without Liang Jingche’s help.

　　What’s more, Liang Jingche had also provided her, off the record, with evidence of the Zhang clan bribing a particular bank.

　　Be it personal or professional, Jiang Dai would like to express her gratitude to everyone properly. If she could establish a friendship, it would be beneficial for their cooperation in the long term.

　　Although Jiang Dai was courteous, Liang Jinche was not in the least bit interested in being polite.

　　“Tonight it is, then. As for the venue, it is up to you, as it would be impolite for me to decline.”

　　Upon hearing this, question marks surrounded Jiang Dai’s head. He sure is difficult to deal with. Alright, then.

　　“Let’s meet at 8 p.m. then. Chairman Liang, would you like me to send a car to pick you up?

　　“No, you only need to send me the address.”

　　……

　　As such, Jiang Dai had Wen Yan make a reservation at a French restaurant promptly.

　　When they had their business talk the last time, they prioritized talking and had hardly eaten anything. That would be due to the appearance of Huo Rongshen, who had messed everything up.

　　This time, she took great pains to express the sincerity one would have when they played host to major clients. As such, the entire dinner progressed enjoyably. 

　　By right, the official date for signing the agreement was supposed to be next Tuesday. As such, Jiang Dai explained her father’s situation euphemistically and asked Liang Jingche whether he could reschedule it.

　　As Jiang Dai spoke of her father, Liang Jingche’s complexion had undergone apparent changes, but he said nothing at that moment. Soon after, he merely notified her that there was no hurry for her to sign the contract, and all the various processes would continue to move forward. He could send her the agreement particulars first, as both parties had to finalize the details together.

　　Based on dining etiquette, Jiang Dai had only taken her tablet out to skim through the agreement as soon as she finished the last bit of her dessert.
