Chapter 185 The Grand Opening Ceremony
Jiangcheng, Guangshengtang.
"Second Master, our men have been handing out flyers in front of the beauty salon all day, but that kid surnamed Li has turned into a coward and hasn't clashed with our men at all."
Upon hearing his subordinate's report, Zhao Liangyi immediately frowned. "Hmph! Coward? You immediately notify people to speed up the renovation of the branch and make the opening ceremony as big as possible."
I'll see how long he can keep hiding.
"Yes, Second Master."
.......
Yan Zhi You Li Beauty and Wellness Center.
The shops across the street are being renovated quickly, with staff working day and night.
"Great news! Great news!"
"Grand Opening Special Offers for the Century-Old Guang Sheng Tang Restaurant!"
"Beautiful lady, take a look, this is traditional Chinese massage..."
Throughout Jiangbei Road, from one end to the other, people are constantly handing out flyers every day.
In fact, Guang Sheng Tang's name is already well-known.
Even when a new store opens, there's no need for such a low-level promotional tactic as distributing flyers.
However, in the past few days, a group of people have taken over the entire street.
They would stop any passerby and give them a presentation.
"These guys are absolutely outrageous!"
Sun Min stood at the entrance of the beauty salon, gritting her teeth in anger as she looked at the people handing out flyers on the street.
She stood there for a while, then stomped her foot and ran up to the massage room on the second floor.
"Brother Li, the people from Guang Sheng Tang are causing trouble at the entrance every day. Are we just going to stand by and watch?"
Upon hearing this, Li Yi smiled faintly, "Xiao Min, business at our store has been pretty good these past few days, so what's there to worry about?"
Sun Min said anxiously, "Oh dear, Brother Li, although the business in the store hasn't been affected these past few days, I've heard many old customers talking privately about when Guang Sheng Tang will open."
Many people even plan to go and experience it after it opens.
If this situation continues, the business might really plummet after Guang Sheng Tang opens.
"It's alright, we'll talk about it after they open," Li Yi said calmly.
In the past two days, Wang Tao has acquired a pharmaceutical factory, and production will begin soon.
It's just a beauty salon; even if all its business is taken away, so what?
Once the formulas they wrote are put into production, Guang Sheng Tang's good days will be over.
Sun Min was unaware of the pharmaceutical factory's situation. Seeing that Li Yi remained unmoved, she could only anxiously wait for him.
Time flies by.
A few days pass in the blink of an eye.
With the help of money, the Guang Sheng Tang branch across the street was quickly renovated.
The crackling of firecrackers and the resounding beat of gongs and drums echoed throughout Jiangbei Street from the morning onwards.
Such a commotion, coupled with the reputation of Guang Sheng Tang as a century-old brand, quickly attracted everyone's attention.
Now, apart from the newly opened Guang Sheng Tang, all the other shops on the street are deserted.
Even the usually busiest beauty salon, Yan Zhi You Li, was no exception.
"Hey? Old Zhang, what are you doing here?"
"Oh, isn't this the opening of Guang Sheng Tang? I've come to join in the fun."
"Guang Sheng Tang is a century-old brand. Now that they've opened a branch here, I'll come here if I feel unwell in the future."
The onlookers, discussing amongst themselves, crowded around the newly opened Guang Sheng Tang.
As time passed, the crowd of onlookers grew larger and larger.
The next moment, a line of luxury cars also drove towards Jiangbei Road.
"clang!"
"Wang Baichuan, Chairman of Taikang Group, congratulates Guang Sheng Tang on its grand opening and wishes it great success and widespread prosperity, and may its reputation for safeguarding health spread far and wide!"
With a loud voice, a middle-aged man in his fifties with an extraordinary demeanor walked towards the newly opened Guang Sheng Tang, surrounded by a group of bodyguards.
Upon hearing the other person's name, many people immediately began to discuss it.
"Taikang Group, isn't that a well-known pharmaceutical company in China?"
"That's right! They're a listed company, with a market value of tens of billions!"
"Wow! It's just a branch opening, and even a big boss like him came to show his support!"
"Guang Sheng Tang has quite a reputation!"
As everyone was still in shock, another voice rang out.
"Lei Dafu, Chairman of Meirui Group, congratulates Guang Sheng Tang on the grand opening of its new store. May the opening of Kinmen bring blessings and the fragrance of medicine to bring health and well-being!"
Meirui Group is one of the well-known listed companies in China.
The company owns hundreds of private hospitals of varying sizes.
When the Guang Sheng Tang branch opened, the other party's boss even sent his blessings.
Just as everyone was in shock, one voice after another rang out.
"Xu Maoxun, Vice President of the Chinese Medicine Association, congratulates Guang Sheng Tang on the grand opening of its new store, wishing it a successful journey of helping the world and spreading its benevolent heart and skillful hands far and wide!"
"Xie Zhenguo, President of Jiangcheng Central Hospital, congratulates Guangshengtang on the grand opening of its new store. May its effective remedies bring joy to thousands of families, and may its business prosper and bring health to countless households!"
"..."
One loud voice after another rang out.
CEOs of listed companies, presidents of traditional Chinese medicine associations, hospital directors, and so on.
Important figures of all kinds came to offer their congratulations.
Seeing these important figures who came to show their support, the onlookers became even more shocked.
Three beautiful young women stood at the entrance of Yan Zhi You Li beauty salon.
"Damn it! That Zhao guy's making such a big fuss, is he rushing to a funeral?"
Bai Ruxue looked at the scene across the street and cursed under her breath.
Upon hearing this, Li Yi smiled and shook his head, "Sister Bai, you know perfectly well that the guy surnamed Zhao is deliberately provoking us, so why did you still insist on coming today?"
"Pah! Who does that Zhao guy think he is? I'm here today to see them make a fool of themselves."
Bai Ruxue said this, but in reality she was worried that Guang Shengtang's opening today would steal all the business from the beauty salon, and that Li Yi would be unhappy about it, so she made a special trip over.
Wang Tao and Wang Yingnan shared the same idea.
So, the three of them put aside everything and came to the beauty salon early in the morning.
It has to be said that Guang Sheng Tang made quite a stir today.
One important figure after another came to show their support, giving the other party plenty of face.
In contrast, the deserted beauty salon looked rather shabby.
However, for Li Yi, fame and fortune are all just fleeting clouds.
For a practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine, the most important things are medical ethics and medical skills.
Coincidentally, he had both of these things.
Therefore, he wouldn't be affected by the commotion caused by the other side.
Just then, a group of several dozen people walked towards them from directly in front of them on the street.
Li Yi guessed that the other party was also interested in the opening of Guang Sheng Tang, so he didn't take it to heart. "Sister Bai, there's nothing much to see here. Let's go back and rest."
Bai Ruxue and Wang Tao exchanged a glance, then nodded in unison, "Alright! The other side is so noisy, let's go back and out of sight, out of mind."
Just as the four turned around, preparing to return to the beauty salon, a voice suddenly rang out from afar.
"Li Yi, wait a minute, don't go!"
