After the Wen Corporation was exposed to have quality control issues, their commerce auditors immediately performed a quality check on the clothes from the Wen Corporation. Luckily, Old Mr. Wen made a wise decision, and the first moment that the problem was revealed, they recalled all of the problematic clothing items. Hence, the corporation was not affected by the inspection.
At the same time, Old Mr. Wen issued a public apology to the media and allowed for unconditional returns, giving those who needed a refund a fifteen percent discount at their jewelry store as a sign of apology.
Due to the incentives given, this matter was put behind not too long after. Those who had wanted to make use of this opportunity to fuel the flames and get what they wanted by taking advantage of the Wen Corporation, could not find the opportunity to do so. They could not even manage to worsen the problem.
Although the Wen Corporation was facing a crisis, their jewelry and make-up business had a stable market share, and this temporarily managed to stabilize the situation, which Old Mr. Wen did not expect.
At 8 pm, Wen Xinya dragged her tired body out of the office, together with Bai Ling.
“The final design draft has already been confirmed. Refine it by tomorrow and hand it to me. I will use your design for this season’s clothes.”
Bai Ling was a shockingly talented jewelry designer, and what was most important was that she worked really hard. The design this time, after her guidance and teaching, could be seen as one of the Wen Corporation’s flagship clothing designs.
Bai Ling was naturally happy and held her arm. “If not for your guidance Sister Xinya, then I would not have improved so much. Thank you, Sister Xinya!”
Her voice was crisp, just like a Bai Ling bird, and brought about happiness and joy.
Recently, every day after Xinya knocked off from work, she would bring her to a studio close to the company and guide her on fashion design. This made her improve rapidly, and more importantly, she discovered that Sister Xinya’s unique opinion and understanding of fashion matched up to that of Teacher Gu, that was why Teacher Gu had so many praises for her.
Wen Xinya smiled. “Don’t let this get to your head. In this journey of design, you must only move forward.”
Bai Ling laughed as a reply. Then, she saw a black Bentley parked along the road. Under the light of the streetlamps, which were bright and blinding, she recognized the car in an instant.
“Sister Xinya, your fiance is so nice to you, he fetches you on time every day. You’re so lucky!”
Bai Ling’s words were filled with envy and well-wishes.
“Be careful when you go back at night, I’ll go first.”
As Wen Xinya looked at the car, the smile on her face turned gentle, and her quiet eyes looked especially dazzling at night under the light of the lamps.
After she bid Bai Ling goodbye, Wen Xinya got in the car.
Si Yiyan helped her put on seatbelt out of habit. “Shouldn’t you let yourself relax after this period of busyness?”
She had worked to her limits every day recently, and he felt for her.
Wen Xinya smiled. “Bai Ling is a talent worthy of nurturing, so I put in a little more effort. But the design for this season is more or less settled. It was just that the Wen Corporation faced a quality control crisis. If the new clothes do not go onto the market as soon as possible to allow us to rebound, we are afraid that the years of trust that our consumers have placed in us will be ruined. Therefore, I should be busy for quite a while more.”
The moment that the quality control was exposed, the former Secretary Cao and the current Director Cao had already delivered the relevant investigation results to her.
This investigation result was not the one that was done by the corporation internally, but Secretary Cao secretly assigned someone to investigate, and found out that the problem lied with Wen Haowen, which explained everything.
Wen Haowen was easy to make use of and manipulate the situation, and he was even dealing with Ning Shuqian at the same time.
At that time, Xia Ruya had already dug a hole for the Wen Corporation to fall into.
“Your face slimmed down so much, and you are starting to have dark eye circles. You look like an abused panda.”
After Si Yiyan helped her put on the seatbelt, he did not leave, but only grabbed her waist with one hand and pressed down her shoulder with his other and locked her in between himself and the seat.
Wen Xinya puckered her lips and glared at him. “You are the panda!” However, Si Yiyan’s words really affected her, and she could not help but ask, “Do I really have dark eye circles?”
As a girl who liked to look pretty, dark eye circles were her greatest enemy.
Si Yiyan softly sighed. “Don’t stress yourself out too much. When I went to Jiayuan Club earlier on, I heard them mention your name, and everybody says that you’re a hardworking, capable and pretty. You manage both clothing and jewelry design and kicked up a storm, making jewelry design look easy, and made an embarrassment of the Li Corporation.”
Hearing someone praise his lover, he momentarily stopped in his steps and felt pride in his heart. He felt pride for her, but tenderness as well.
Wen Xinya said, “Although Wen Corporation suffered a blow that caused heavy losses, we are still in a recoverable state. Wen Corporation should not be afraid of being in too much trouble as we are forward-looking and are bold enough to solve our problems. Although our clothing market collapsed, within the company, there are still fresh talents like Bai Ling. Wen Corporation is still strong enough to take more blows.”
Although she looked fatigued, she had a smile on her face. Under the dim light of the car, her face glowed and she looked beautiful.
After she went through this tough period, she had become more determined and strong.
Clearly, due to how busy Wen Corporation was, she had managed to rediscover the new direction for the corporation.
Such a Wen Xinya made Si Yiyan feel extremely attracted, and he went closer to her face. “Wen Corporation has Old Mr. Wen and you, it will become a brand new company.”
He was sure that with them, even under the Korean-Chinese Alliance’s offensive assault, Wen Corporation’s foundation could be secured.
Wen Corporation’s greatest problem was, while they were under Wen Haowen’s leadership, he was too cowardly and caused the corporation to lose its market share.
Today, Wen Corporation’s crisis was due to the department’s internal problems appearing one by one. After they were each solved, the corporation would be rebuilt into a great, competitive business, and display the ferocity that this long-standing business had.
Wen Xinya said, “Although Li Corporation can strike blows at the Wen Corporation for now and plans to use us as a stepping stone, for them to take over Wen Corporation’s market share in the clothing market will be difficult—they expanded too rapidly, the result is an unstable foundation. They will not be able to carry on at this rate. If we can survive through this period, Li Corporation will not be able to take over.”
After she understood that, her panicked emotions stabilized eventually.
