Where does the confidence come from

A minute later, a friend finally asked: [What about the other piece of news? @General Manager Li.]

General Manager Li looked down and tapped on his phone screen.

He had been waiting for someone in the group to ask this very question.

He sent out the message he had prepared in advance.

[A piece of news that you will absolutely, positively never guess!]

His friends' curiosity was completely piqued by General Manager Li's words.

The restorative ointment alone was enough to make General Manager Li this excited. What kind of news could it be that they would absolutely never guess?

[Hurry up and tell us! What's this news that we'll never guess?]

The group members urged General Manager Li one after another.

General Manager Li continued to keep them in suspense: [The researcher behind this skincare ointment and the skincare products isn't from Jiangtong Company's team. Guess who it could be? Here's a hint: you all know him. He's incredibly badass, a legendary figure who emerged in recent years.]

The group members were slightly taken aback.

The incident at Lin Qingwan's celebration banquet had caused quite a stir previously.

They knew quite a bit about it.

Jiangtong Company was a very capable skincare company, but their product formulas had been repeatedly stolen by Lin Qingwan's company, and they had faced continuous obstruction from her, which was why their products hadn't sold well.

If the skincare products and restorative ointment weren't researched by Jiangtong Company's team, who else could it be?

[Is it the boss of Zhimei Beauty Company?]

But that didn't make sense either.

If Zhimei Company had developed such an amazing skincare product, why wouldn't they sell it themselves instead of handing it over to another beauty company?

Those friends racked their brains but couldn't figure out who had done it.

[Old Li, stop keeping us in suspense and just spit it out.]

[Old Li, if you don't tell us now, I'm going to your house to force it out of you.]

Only then did Old Li send a message to the group:

[The skincare products and ointment produced by Jiangtong Company were all researched and developed by Lin Xuan and his team!]

...

The group went silent for several dozen seconds.

Before someone finally sent a message.

[Old Li, you must be joking. Lin Xuan led the team to research it? How is that possible?]

Tianmu Group had always been engaged in the internet and entertainment industries.

For Lin Xuan to suddenly go and research skincare products was simply inconceivable.

They all thought General Manager Li was joking.

[Old Li, you're kidding, right? How could it be Lin Xuan? Do you really think Lin Xuan is a god? Hurry up and tell us, who is the real researcher behind the ointment and skincare products?]

[Yeah, if you don't tell us, you'd better watch out the next time we go drinking.]

General Manager Li said in the group: [Jiang Yutong said it herself, how could it be fake? If you don't believe me, just wait and check the trending searches later. This news will definitely hit the top trending lists across all major platforms.]

Although Lin Xuan was only in his early twenties, it had to be said that he was just too incredible.

He knew how to do everything.

He was a master of everything.

The group members were still a bit skeptical.

General Manager Li promised in the group: [If what I'm saying is false, I swear I will never touch another drop of alcohol or smoke another cigarette for the rest of my life, and I'll never get hard again!]

His friends: !!!

That was ruthless.

Then it was highly likely to be true.

"Holy crap!" His friends instantly exploded with excitement.

[Is Lin Xuan even human? Why do I feel like no matter what industry he enters, he can reach the very top?]

[Don't even doubt it. Lin Xuan is just that badass.]

[I feel like Lin Xuan will sooner or later take the position of the richest man in the Xia Kingdom. Speaking of which, Lin Xuan and Boss Su are a really great match. They are both exceptionally talented, but it's impossible for them to ever be together.]

Since both of them were so capable, they probably both had very dominant personalities.

Their personalities could never mesh well.

Moreover, they had heard that Lin Xuan had a girlfriend, and as for Boss Su, she kept her distance from men.

Meanwhile.

At Jiangtong Company's physical skincare brand store.

A group of employees rested their chins on their hands listlessly. There wasn't a single customer in the store right now, and they were incredibly bored.

"Sigh, with so few people coming to buy skincare products, I feel like we'll all be out of a job sooner or later."

"Yeah, I have a seventy-year-old mother above me and two kids below me to support, plus a car loan and a mortgage. If the company goes bankrupt and I lose my job, I won't even know what to do."

Jiangtong Company offered great benefits, and they sincerely hoped the company would do well.

But given the current situation, the company simply couldn't hold on for much longer.

"Don't be so downcast. Didn't Lin Qingwan's company copy our skincare products? Our products don't contain any disfiguring ingredients, and the results are great. They'll definitely sell well."

"But even if our skincare products are effective, no one is buying them. Since Lin Qingwan's company's products disfigured people's faces like that, everyone will suspect that our company's products will disfigure their faces too. Otherwise, why wouldn't we have a single customer in the store right now?"

The store clerks all fell silent.

It was indeed true...

Another clerk spoke up, "Didn't our company develop an ointment? If that ointment can restore the faces of those who were disfigured, then everyone will trust our skincare products. They'll definitely sell out like crazy."

"Stop dreaming, how could it have such a miraculous effect? I bet President Jiang only said that to make everyone believe in our skincare products."

"No, no, no, I actually think what President Jiang said is true. President Jiang doesn't seem like the type to just talk nonsense."

They began to discuss it one after another.

A group of employees wearing uniforms came in carrying boxes.

There were about a hundred boxes of goods.

The store clerks looked puzzled.

"What is this?"

The leader answered, "This is the restorative ointment, used to treat the disfigurement caused by Lin Qingwan's company's skincare products."

"And some of it is the company's newly developed skincare products."

The store clerks frowned and said, "You brought so much over, can we really sell all of this?"

After so many days, only seven or eight people had come by around noon, and each bought a few bottles of the ointment to take back.

They even recognized two of them: the CEO of Weibo and the CEO of a certain B platform.

Seeing so many people coming to buy the ointment, they had been very excited at the time, thinking that the ointment was finally starting to sell well.

But as it turned out, an entire afternoon passed, and the ointment remained completely ignored.

As for the newly developed skincare products, it went without saying—not a single set had been sold in two days.

Bringing so much ointment and skincare products over, wasn't it just taking up space?

The leader smiled and said, "President Jiang said that quite a few people will be coming over to buy these ointments soon. She also said that these ointments will sell out in a single day. The few of us will stay behind to help sell them."

The store clerks frowned.

What on earth gave President Jiang the confidence to think that they could sell out hundreds of boxes of ointment and skincare products in a single day?
