You rejected my confession, so I proposed to the mature and sophisticated professor.

Chapter 64 The Domineering Older Woman

Dai Linfeng used a clever trick: he arrived at the mall but did not report to Shen Youqing.

He first sent his administrative assistant to investigate the mall's owners.

Then he observed from outside the mall.

It was right after lunchtime, and normally the mall wouldn't be very crowded, but there were quite a few people gathered around Li Minghao's stall.

Not everyone was queuing up to buy blind boxes; most people were chatting and joking around, occasionally asking Li Minghao to give them plastic rings to play with.

Of course, some people also pay money to buy blind boxes.

Whenever someone pays money to open a blind box, a large crowd gathers around, making it look like a gambling scene to those who don't know better.

This surprised Dai Linfeng. It's no exaggeration to say that this stall can bring traffic to the mall. Otherwise, it would be quite remarkable that so many people would be gathered in front of the stall in the middle of the day!

Moreover, in the short time he had observed, less than half an hour, he saw that Li Minghao had collected at least 300 yuan!

There aren't many customers at midday, yet they still managed to collect so much money!

This thing makes money! They even say it's to drive traffic to our shopping mall and get money from the mall.

The young lady is flirting with a guy; she's getting the best of both worlds!

After observing for a while, Dai Linfeng walked over and asked curiously, "Boss, didn't you say it was a free ring toss game? Why are you paying to play?"

Li Minghao looked at the man in a suit and smiled, "This is not mandatory. We support you to play the ring toss game for free."

Dai Linfeng was taken aback. "Did I ask if it was free? Why do I have to pay?"

Li Minghao said, "It's free. You don't have to spend any money."

Dai Linfeng: ...

Okay, never mind what I said...

"Manager Dai! We're investigating..."

The administrative assistant in charge of the investigation returned and hurried over to Dai Linfeng, saying...

Before she could finish speaking, Dai Linfeng interrupted her.

Then Dai Linfeng pulled her aside and asked, "How's the investigation going? What do the shop owners think of this stall outside the mall?"

The female assistant said, "I just went to the mall and the shop owners had a very bad opinion of this stall..."

"Very bad?"

Dai Linfeng's heart skipped a beat, and he felt a chill run down his spine.

This is a project applied for by the young lady. According to the survey results, the owners of the third floor said it was not good.

If I were to reject it like this, wouldn't I offend the young lady to death?

And the female assistant spoke so decisively...

It was clearly so bad that the residents here could no longer tolerate it.

Sure enough, the female assistant said, "They all say they can't stand this young man in charge of the event."

I'm dead, I'm definitely dead...

Dai Linfeng felt his legs go weak, and he realized that his future might be ruined right here!

"What did they say? Why can't I stand it?" Dai Linfeng made a final, desperate attempt.

"They said that the young man who set up the stall and organized the event didn't understand social etiquette, so they were being lenient and refused to tell them which blind box a bag from the brand Nick was in."

"what?"

"What?"

Having already resigned himself to how he would die, Dai Linfeng suddenly widened his eyes and stared blankly at his female assistant.

Why are they dissatisfied? Is it because they won't reveal what's inside the blind box?

"no....."

Dai Linfeng was completely stumped.

"I mean, are they satisfied with this event? Do they want this event to exist?!"

"Yes!" the female assistant said.

The female assistant said, "When we asked them if they needed such an event, everyone said yes without exception, and said that the event was great and had increased their revenue significantly!"

"Regarding the specific turnover, some say it exceeded 10%, while others exaggerate and say it exceeded 100%!"

Dai Linfeng was furious: "Next time you speak, can you just get to the point!"

He was almost scared to death!

"Mr. Dai, you didn't even tell me you were coming?" Just then, Dai Linfeng heard a very pleasant voice.

He turned around and saw a beautiful figure.

The person who came over was Shen Youqing, with Jiang Cheng following behind her.

Of course, it was Li Minghao who tipped him off; he suspected Dai Linfeng was from headquarters as soon as he saw him.

I had heard from Jiang Cheng before that someone from headquarters was coming.

So when Li Minghao saw that Dai Linfeng was suspicious, he called Jiang Cheng directly.

Dai Linfeng, whose name was called by Shen Youqing, was startled.

He didn't expect that he had only met the young lady once at headquarters and exchanged a few words with her because of work.

The young lady actually still remembers him!

"Hello, Mr. Shen. I just arrived and was just about to call you," Dai Linfeng said.

"What are the results of the investigation?" Shen Youqing walked over, her hands behind her back, looking somewhat casual, but in Jiang Cheng's eyes, she seemed a bit mischievous. She asked Dai Linfeng directly, "Can this activity be rolled out nationwide? You know it's already on the news, and many people are watching. If we don't promote it soon, other shopping malls will follow suit, and it will be too late for us to act."

Dai Linfeng was somewhat embarrassed, not only because Shen Youqing exposed his prior investigation, but also because Shen Youqing directly asked him whether he would approve it.

He certainly had that authority, because it was a project proposed by the young lady, and as long as he nodded, headquarters could basically approve it very smoothly and quickly.

But how do I nod like that...?

just in case……

What if something goes wrong with this new gameplay mode?

If we don't let him take the blame, we can't let the young lady take it, right?

I don't dare nod...

"Miss's project should be fine. I'll compile the data and report to headquarters. It should be approved."

"What data do you need? Tell me, and I'll help you compile it quickly."

Shen Youqing was aggressive.

this……

Dai Linfeng was even more embarrassed...

"I'm having someone conduct a Q&A interview to collect data from the mall's customers."

Shen Youqing pressed further, "How long will it take you to collect this data? Can you finish collecting it this afternoon?"

Dai Linfeng felt sweat beading on his humble forehead.

The young lady is determined to kill him.

He could only bite the bullet and say, "It should be possible... I guess."

"If you need anything, just tell me and I'll have someone prepare it for you."

"But if you have a need but don't mention it, and it delays work, then that's your responsibility."

"Yes, yes... I need to be able to speak."

Dai Linfeng's forehead was indeed sweating; the young lady wasn't easy to fool!

But not collecting data is not an option, and Dai Linfeng is genuinely afraid.

So he had someone print out a questionnaire, and then had someone buy five boxes of eggs wholesale.

If you want survey data and hope that others will answer questions sincerely, you should offer them something in return.

Eggs are a great product; everyone needs them, and they fit the target customer group of the shopping mall.

So the investigation began.

While Dai Linfeng was collecting data, another group of people were heading towards Yonghui Mall.

They are Yonghui Mall's competitors, Jiale Mall.
