Chapter 263 Making Men Dream of Him
Tingting had already noticed something amiss. She pointed to the back of Old Huo from the Transportation Bureau, then looked at Dawei with a strange expression.
David pushed her to hurry into the elevator.
"From the Transportation Bureau."
Tingting grinned mischievously: "What, are you scared?"
"What do I have to be afraid of? You're a consultant hired by Yuanshan Fruit Industry; isn't this just normal hospitality?"
"Exactly, so why are you panicking?"
"I didn't."
Tingting leaned closer and sniffed: "Why did you specifically wear perfume, cologne?"
David looked up at the elevator ceiling without answering.
Tingting couldn't suppress her smile. What a scheming boy! He even sprayed perfume to seduce me.
Once in the room, Dawei sat down, thinking about what to talk to her about, not focusing on things between men and women.
Since Ms. Ding has come all this way, we should try to ask her as many questions as possible and get some constructive suggestions for Yuanshan Fruit Industry.
But Ding Tingting didn't think that way. Once inside, she squatted down by her suitcase and opened it.
Take out two items and place them on the coffee table next to David.
"For you."
After saying that, she went back to her suitcase, rummaged through her things, and then took a set of pajamas, a face towel, makeup remover pads, and other items directly into the bathroom.
David looked at the things on the table.
One is a Philips shaver with three blades. Dawei saw it in the mall before, and it cost several hundred yuan, but he couldn't bring himself to buy it.
There was also a beautiful velvet box, square in shape. When I opened it, I found a men's watch, a Longines.
This thing isn't cheap; it easily costs over a thousand.
David held the watch in his hand and felt its weight; the workmanship was exquisite, and it shone brightly under the light.
David certainly likes it.
But one should not accept rewards without merit.
Furthermore, since the two haven't officially started dating, accepting such an expensive gift seems inappropriate.
But it was clearly bought specifically for him, and if he doesn't accept it, there's nothing they can do about it; the store might not be able to accept a refund.
This is really difficult...
The sound of running water came from the bathroom as Ding Tingting sang the song "Love Net" while taking a shower.
David felt a pair of soft, large hands gripping the back of his neck, rendering him unable to move.
Leaving is not an option, nor is staying.
Not long after, Tingting came out wearing a short-sleeved pajama set with shorts and a round neck. The top was rather conservative, but the Pikachu pattern was very cute.
Tingting came over and sat down next to him.
He crossed his legs directly on the sofa.
Do you like it?
"I like them, but these are too expensive, I feel so bad about it."
Tingting chuckled: "What's the big deal? I have money, you can take it and use it... Why are you being so polite with me? I didn't ask you to repay me."
"I didn't even give you a gift, how could I accept one from you?"
"I'm sorry now. You kissed me so much in the car before, and you didn't even say you were sorry. That was... that was my first kiss."
David scratched his head and chuckled awkwardly, "Why keep bringing this up? Back then, you were quite proactive too..."
Tingting's eyes widened, and she pointed a finger: "We'll talk again!"
Hehe~
"Alright, go and get me some tea. I haven't even had a sip of tea since we arrived in your Yuanshan County."
The tea leaves served in the restaurant don't even qualify as tea.
David hurriedly went to boil water.
"I have tea in my suitcase." After washing up, Tingting sat lazily, too full to move.
David opened her suitcase, and wow...
Lots of underwear, red, purple, blue...
He rummaged through his clothes and found the tea canister under his clothes. He picked it up, smelled it, and then got up to make tea.
The aroma of tea filled the air, and after a couple of sips, the two of them felt more refreshed.
"Tell me, how's Yuanshan Fruit Industry doing now?" Tingting asked, hugging her legs.
David felt relieved. He decided to stick to work-related topics and avoid discussing anything else, as it could easily lead to trouble.
"We're preparing to open, but the problem is the lack of qualified personnel, which is causing serious delays in many tasks..."
The most important issue right now is brand naming.
Wu Maocai has interviewed several brand managers, but none of them are suitable. The existing company team members also cannot come up with any good ideas.
What about Guangdong fragrant oranges, plum blossom navel oranges, seedless sweet oranges...?
None of them satisfied David.
"Let's call it Yuanshan Navel Orange. Isn't that a pretty good brand? It's down-to-earth, easy to pronounce, and catchy."
You work in agriculture.
It's not like we're making any industrial products.
A brand must first and foremost be relatable and down-to-earth.
David thought for a moment and said, "You know what, it actually works."
Tingting smirked and chuckled: "This 50,000 yuan annual consulting fee wasn't wasted, was it?"
Our fruit company should no longer focus on navel oranges; instead, our external marketing should emphasize the location of Yuanshan.
Yuanshan Navel Orange, Yuanshan Navel Orange.
That's what we call it.
In the past, you sold "Growth" oranges, and Jiangxi Province sold "Gannan Navel Oranges," so you followed suit and used that brand.
Isn't this just doing all the work for someone else?
We should downplay the name "navel orange" and let Jiangxi Province continue to promote their Gannan navel oranges.
You should recommend Yuanshan navel oranges.
In this way, the more successfully the Gannan navel orange is promoted, the more the Yuanshan navel orange will benefit.
Southern Jiangxi is a large area.
The distant mountains cover a small area.
It's like everyone is promoting Dancong tea, but in Chaozhou, they're promoting Phoenix Dancong tea.
Then they add a new twist, saying that Phoenix Mountain is the place of origin, and everyone immediately thinks that Phoenix Dancong is high-end, good, authentic, and they have to try it.
The more successful the Dancong brand becomes, the more popular Phoenix Dancong becomes.
Similarly, the more successful the navel orange category becomes, the more sought-after Yuanshan navel oranges will be.
David listened quietly at first, then went to the table to get a piece of paper and started taking notes.
"No need to remember."
"Remember this, remember this."
"What I'm talking about are the principles of marketing; the foundation still depends on the quality of your products."
"That's natural. It's a technical issue. Yuanshan County has been growing navel oranges for many years, so the technical problems aren't a big one. The Provincial Department of Agriculture will also send experts to us. The difficulty lies in marketing."
Tingting yawned: "Okay, you can go back now, I'm sleepy."
"..."
David was speechless. He was just getting excited when she said she wanted to sleep. Wasn't she afraid of ghosts?
Tingting climbed onto the bed, pulled the blanket up to cover her face, and said, "Remember to close the door behind you."
"..."
If she didn't do anything, Dawei suddenly felt a little disappointed and sat there in a daze for a while.
"Oh, okay... Call me if you need anything, I'll be there in no time."
"Um."
David went out the door, went downstairs, sat in the car and smoked a cigarette, still not understanding what Tingting had just done.
Meanwhile, Ding Tingting had already come to the bedside. Looking at the situation at the hotel entrance downstairs, she covered her mouth and chuckled as she saw Dawei drive away slowly.
This was taught to her by her good friend, Director Ye from the Provincial Department of Agriculture.
Speaking of men.
We have to hang him.
You need to adjust him gradually.
We can't give them all at once.
Slowly flirt, play hard to get—that's how you make a man dream of you.
