Chapter 331: Angry

Of course, Song Yi was willing to have Gu Chen participate; his eyes lit up, “Mr. Gu, are you interested in cooperation? It seems that the Gu family has not been involved in the jewelry industry. Would you like to give it a try? Welcome!”

To establish a jewelry brand, having the jewelry alone is not enough; it largely depends on promotion. With the backing of both Brown Group and Gu’s Group, along with the raw materials from their Song Group, they could achieve significant profits through effective marketing. Song Yi couldn’t miss such a good opportunity.

His gaze toward Song Fan softened. “Fanfan, since Mr. Gu is interested, and your relationship is good, let’s discuss it together. But Mr. Brown, what do you think?”

“If Mr. Gu is willing, I am more than happy!” Charlie still wore his standard smile. He was eager for Gu Chen to join, as it would further his plans.

However, Song Fan was not willing. She directly said, “I’m afraid that’s not suitable. Gu’s Group has no related industry in jewelry, and Charlie has a detailed plan that does not include third-party involvement.’

Song Fan intended to exclude Gu Chen. She knew Charlie might be the one behind the scenes, and his motives for coming to A City were likely more complex than they seemed.

But surprisingly, Gu Chen, who had always been calm, only heard the name “Charlie.” He didn’t expect that in just a few days, the two of them had become so intimate.

“Gu’s Group has always been diverse, and diversity is crucial. To promote a new brand internationally, apart from the Brown Group’s promotion and the Song Corporation’s jade, isn’t there a considerable need for initial capital? Mr. Brown, can you support such a significant project financially?” Gu Chen slightly leaned forward, squinting at Song Fan.

When the issue of funds was raised, Song Yi’s eyes lit up even more. Creating an international luxury jewelry brand requires substantial investment. Without a considerable amount of money, the brand wouldn’t attract attention.

Especially when he saw Charlie’s visibly darkened expression, Song Yi became even more convinced that even if Charlie had money, he might not have enough influence to promote an international jewelry brand. In that case, it was better to embrace Gu Chen as a money tree.

“You’re right. Although the Song Corporation has been in the jewelry industry for a long time, it’s been more on a smaller scale. Moreover, jewelry isn’t our main focus, so the budget is indeed limited.” Song Yi implied that they lacked the funds to establish a truly international brand.

Upon seeing Charlie’s displeasure, Meng Xia hastily said, “Does Brown Group not have money? Mr. Gu, don’t think that only the Gu family has wealth.

Charlie is the son of the Brown family, and in the future, everything in the

Brown family will be his. A mere jewelry brand is nothing to him.”

As she spoke, Meng Yu tightly grabbed her arm, but Meng Xia continued at a rapid pace. Upon seeing that everyone remained silent, especially with Charlie’s cold gaze turning toward her, she finally realized that she had misspoken.

After all, Charlie was the illegitimate son of the Brown family. If it weren’t for some means used by his mother, his father might not have recognized him. Although he appeared as a young master to outsiders, those who knew the inside story were aware that he couldn’t be compared to his two legitimate brothers.

Gu Chen must have discovered this, knowing that Charlie had limited funds. Hence, he suggested collaboration and investment. Meng Xia’s words seemed to help Charlie, but in reality, every word hit him where it hurt.

Meng Yu hurriedly intervened, trying to smooth things over, “Xiao Xia doesn’t understand these things. She has been sheltered since childhood and hasn’t been involved in business matters. Please don’t mind. She’s just speaking thoughtlessly.”

“Yes, I’ve never been involved in these things before, and I really don’t understand.” Meng Xia finally found a way to backpedal, “Godfather, didn’t you say you wanted me to gain some experience? So, let me handle the jewelry brand this time. I can learn a lot, and I see that my sister isn’t very interested.” She thought what she said was reasonable, but Meng Yu, on the side, was nearly infuriated. She realized for the first time that her niece, whom she had always admired, was just a pretty face without much intelligence!

But before Meng Yu could speak to salvage the situation, Charlie coldly retorted, “I’ve said it before—I only cooperate with Song Fan. Since the Song family lacks sincerity, I’ll take my leave..”
