The supporting actress becomes the leading actress: the movie queen travels through time

Chapter 130 Du Mu appears again

Liu Yulan was hesitant. She originally proposed to cooperate with Su Mo because she saw Su Mo's ability to bring products on variety shows. She hoped to revitalize the influence of the old brand through the cooperation of sub-brands. This is also a common cooperation model between celebrities and enterprises nowadays. But now Su Mo proposed to open a new company, which was not in her own plan. Judging from Su Mo's attitude, if she refused, she might miss this opportunity. But she knew that she needed fresh blood to stimulate the operation of the factory. If she still relied on her own design team, it might be okay for one or two years, but it was hard to say after three years...

In order to keep the factory running, Liu Yulan finally agreed to Su Mo's suggestion. The three discussed the specific matters of the company's operation and finally decided that Su Mo would be responsible for the design work and hold a 31% stake; Lin Qian would be responsible for company registration and some publicity matters and hold a 20% stake; and Liu Yulan would be responsible for production and operation and hold a 49% stake.

After finishing the serious business, Su Mo looked at Liu Yulan's lost expression and said, "Sister Liu, let me ask you something. What is the biggest difficulty you are facing now?"

"Alas, pattern making is a killer. Nowadays, people start to get involved in the clothing industry once they become a little famous. Although they don't understand design, they know the public's preferences very well and have a huge fan base. They use the clothes of big brands as pattern making and make minor adjustments to make their own things. There are very few people who are truly original. If it was just normal pattern making, it would be fine, but in order to increase profits, they crazy lower the price. First, they change the materials and pass inferior products off as good ones. Then they look for prices everywhere, and make them wherever it is cheaper, so that the factory will take the initiative to reduce the price. Finally, the payment period is extended. Each time, tens of thousands of pieces are placed for order, and the payment can only be settled after they are sold out."

"Then can we not do it?" Lin Qian asked puzzledly.

Liu Yulan smiled bitterly and said, "If you don't do it, there are plenty of people who will. As long as the clothes look like big brands and can be sold to fans, they don't care about quality issues, after-sales service, or quality issues. If there is a problem, just blame it on the factory. There are so many factories in the country anyway, they can just change one every time."

"Have you ever considered training your own anchor?" Su Mo asked.

Liu Yulan sighed, "We have tried it. We invested a lot of manpower and resources before, but once they became famous, they went out to work alone and poached a few employees. Later, when it comes to live streaming, everyone wants to get in front of the camera and no one wants to work behind the scenes. We can't blame them, it really makes money quickly this way."

"Live streaming has indeed developed rapidly in recent years. What about short dramas or short videos?" Su Mo asked again.

"Short play? Short video?" Liu Yulan was puzzled. What did this have to do with their clothing industry?

“You can try to shoot short dramas and short videos by yourself or find someone to collaborate with you, and all the actors can wear your own company’s clothes. As long as the content of the video is feasible, it will be widely disseminated. You can also write the brand and model of the clothes in the comments, so that you can show the clothes in all aspects and make it convenient for everyone to buy.”

"This sounds like a good idea. I'll go back and discuss it with the team. Thank you, Momo." Liu Yulan didn't expect Su Mo to help her with advice, so she said thank you sincerely.

Su Mo did not take credit for it and said politely: "I am just making a suggestion. Whether it will work or not depends on you."

The three chatted for a while, and Su Mo and Lin Qian got up to leave. When they came downstairs, they found that there was one more car outside than before.

Su Mo understood and glanced at Liu Yulan's reaction calmly. It seemed that she knew the other party was coming, but did not expect her to come so late.

The man heard the voice and walked towards them, "Are you done talking?"

"Well, why are you so late?" Liu Yulan asked.

"Your business is more important. I've watched Miss Su on variety shows a few times and I'm just curious." Du Mu said lightly.

"Oh?" Su Mo raised his voice, "I didn't expect Mr. Du to have seen my variety show. I wonder which show it was."

Du Mu was not annoyed when he was exposed. He raised his lips slightly and said, "I wonder if Miss Su has time now."

Liu Yulan wanted to help Du Mu, so she rushed to say, "Why don't we go upstairs and drink some tea, Momo, didn't you just say the tea was good?"

Su Mo smiled but didn't say anything. Her expression was a little calmer than before. She didn't like Liu Yulan using her personal relationship to help others plot against her without her permission, even if that someone was her boyfriend.

Du Mu sent Liu Yulan away and said, "Yulan, go and do your work first. I'll chat with Miss Su for a while and then come find you."

Liu Yulan felt a little aggrieved. She didn't expect her boyfriend didn't appreciate her kindness. Under everyone's gaze, she returned to the factory.

"Ms. Su, do you have time to talk to me alone?" Du Mu asked directly without beating around the bush.

Su Mo turned her head and glanced at Lin Qian. Lin Qian received her signal and said, "I'm a little sleepy. I'll go to the car and wait for you first."

After Su Mo waited for Lin Qian to get in the car, he said in a cold tone, "Mr. Du, I don't seem to have any connection with you. I don't know why you keep coming to block me. Don't use the celebrity and fan trick to fool me."

Du Mu chuckled, "Miss Su is indeed a sentimental person. Shall we go over there to chat? It won't take up too much of your time."

Su Mo looked at it and found that this location was right at the intersection, which was indeed not suitable, so he followed Du Mu to a place to the side.

"I want to do business with Miss Su." Du Mu said straight to the point.

"Business?" Su Mo thought of many possibilities, but he didn't think of this one. "What kind of business can I do with Mr. Du?"

"I want to send Du Xian to prison." Du Mu changed his usual gentle appearance, his face was cold and his tone was filled with anger.

"I don't understand what Mr. Du is talking about."

"Miss Su, let me tell you a story. Once upon a time, there was a man who had a very lovely sister and a cousin whose family was very rich. The sister had a dream of becoming an actress since she was a child. As time went by, the sister became more and more outstanding. Since she started college, she has been auditioning everywhere, but unfortunately, she was not selected. One day, they had dinner with the cousin and talked about this. The cousin said that he had a way to help the sister, and the sister was happy for several days. Later, she became busier and busier. One day, she told her brother that she was selected, but there was no joy on her face. The brother thought that the sister was just too busy and tired recently. He advised her to take a rest, and the two said good night to each other. The next day, the brother went to work as usual, but received a call from home on the way. The sister slit her wrists and committed suicide."

"Is he rescued?" Su Mo felt her heart tighten. She had heard of this kind of thing in the entertainment industry.

"No, it was too late when we found out. The person died before he reached the hospital." Du Mu exuded deep sadness.
