Chapter 224 - "I never said that. You must be dreaming." (1)

Having no idea that all of the glory of his nephew was built upon the medicines given to him by Fang JunRong, Boss Sun strongly encouraged his nephew to teach Fang JunRong a lesson. Preferably a lesson that would make her go bankrupt. That way they would be able to take over her assets.

Zhang ZhiYang couldn't tell the truth and was very aggravated with his uncle urging him. Lo and behold, Zhang Bi also called and expressed how he had used up all of the medicines for the experiment and would like to purchase a few additional bottles.

His call could not have come at a worse time. Zhang ZhiYang unleased on Zhang Bi. He called him useless. That his family couldn't even figure out something that even Feng Zeyu, a layman, was able to. That his family should no longer be referred to as the medicine family; they might as well have been the useless family. And that Zhang Bi should no longer be referred to as genius. He knew full well much how of a genius he really was.

Zhang ZhiYang finally felt better after he was done unleashing.

Granted, he probably shouldn't try to do anything to Fang JunRong recently either.

There was ambition in his eyes. He shouldn't be wasting his time over such minute matters with his uncle. He should focus on the big picture.

What he really needed to do was to take over the role as the housemaster of the Zhang family as soon as possible.

Fang JunRong couldn't be bothered by Zhang ZhiYang after she had hung up on him. As far as she was concerned, Zhang ZhiYang's head had gotten way too big and he had forgotten who he really was.

Zhang ZhiYang had sent her a series of invitations after that but all of them had been thrown into the garbage by Fang JunRong.

She had been very busy with the release of the Hair Growing Cream and had no time to deal with him.

Ten thousand units of Hair Growing Cream were released on 8 PM on the 24th and the flew off the shelf just like that. A bottle of Hair Growing Cream could last up to a month and, as much, its price point was set higher than that of the Beautify Pills. The asking price of a bottle of Hair Growing Cream was 1,288 yuan. Even so, it did not deter people from snatching them up. In addition, even though an average bottle of hair growing shampoo cost around 100 yuan, nobody said her price point was set too high.

Xu WeiWei chuckled when Fang JunRong brought that up to her.

"This is a very fair price. Even Duchess Capet liked our Hair Growing Cream so much that she voluntarily advertised it for us. The asking price of 1,288 yuan was already lower than most had expected.

Fang JunRong busted out laughing as well. That made sense. Everything else that Martia normally used cost upward of 10,000 yuan. That gave people the expectation that the Hair Growing Cream was a very expensive product.

On the night of the 25th, another 10,000 units of the Hair Growing Cream were released and they lasted longer this time. Last time, they were all sold out within a second and, this time, it took three minutes. Even so, it was shocking when the words got out.

When a product that hit the market for the first time were gone in such a short period of time, that was a testimony of Meifang Corporation's status in the heart of their fans. They had so much faith in Fang JunRong that they didn't even wait for responses from the market before spending over 1,000 yuan on the product.

The bosses of Hongyang and Baokong were hurting badly. It was as though they could see the rise of a new, strong player in the field yet there was nothing that they could do other that watching helplessly as Meifang Corporation took over the throne under the Fang JunRong's leadership. Even their effort to throw obstacles at her turned out to be more exposures for her.

Over these last few days, Duchess Capet had not stopped bragging about Fang JunRong's products. Not only had she used the Hair Growing Cream, she had also used the Beautify Pills and would use no less than 1,000 words to praise them every day. If she didn't do the same when she was streaming, even her fans overseas would think that her account has been hacked.

Fang JunRong had original had Country Y in her mind as her oversea market. After all, her counters and shops were almost all ready there already. Now, due to Duchess Capet, she would also be bringing her products to Country X's market in March.

The days might be busy, but were also very fulfilling.

Lu Jing happily took the package from the delivery person and gave him her autograph.

Retreating back to his apartment, he quickly opened up package and threw the box away in order to destroy any possible evidences being left behind. As a programmer, working overtime and pulling all nighters were the norm. As the days progressed, he started having male pattern baldness at the early age of 30. He saved the link to Fang JunRong's Hair Growing Cream the minutes he found out about it and was able to snatch a box for himself with his quick reaction time.

Nevertheless, he needed to keep his girlfriend from founding out about this Hair Growing Cream. Otherwise, she would nag about him paying "intelligence tax" over the 1,000-yuan plus Hair Growing Cream again.

He couldn't wait to shower and wash his hair and then opened up the can. The Hair Growing Cream in the jar was very dark in color. Not the dirty kind of dark though, but it almost seemed to be shiny under the light, like a high-quality black jade. It made one felt just thinking about disturbing the content in the jar was a blasphemy against art.

Yet, as a straight male, as much as he thought the gel looked pretty, he had no problem applying them.

According to the instructions, the effect would be even better if he was to cover his head up for 15 minutes with a warm towel afterward.

Sitting on top of the toilet and surfing the web with his legs shaking, 15 minutes went by just like that.

Lu Jing removed the towel and carefully examined himself in the mirror. He wasn't certain whether it was just his imagination, but he felt that his hair was shinier than normal. He touched his hair. Oh, it was soft and smooth as well.

He started using them daily and had been washing his hair way more frequently than he used to. He thought he wouldn't be seeing any effects for at least six months but, after just one week, he could begin to see stumbles at the top of his head.

Looking at the picture that he had taken with his own cellphone, his eyes were almost filled with tears.

He finally no longer needed to worry about his male pattern baldness! No matter how many more all nighters he pulled, he would still be the handsomest programmer! He seemed to be able to see into his own bright future.

As Lu Jing used the Hair Growing Cream happily, he became a loyal fan of Meifang Corporation and would recommend their products on a regular basis in his friend's circle, or at his office. With his as the walking advertisement, all of his colleagues were readily themselves to snatch themselves up a box during the next release.

Lu Jing was very happy that his recommendation had worked. The only part that he wasn't too happy about was that Meifang Corporation was not offering enough stock. Releasing new ones every other week simply didn't cut it. He felt that Meifang Corporation should have done their marketing research better. Per last year's statistic, there were 200 million bald people in the entire China!

Lu Jing went to put in his suggestion under Meifang's official website in between work and asked for same treatment as Beautify Pills! They wanted 10,000 jars per week and another 10,000 being raffling off. No, they would need more than that for Hair Growing Cream. After all, Beautify Pills were only for girls, but Hair Growing Cream, on the other hand, were for both genders. And men need them more than women!

When he went home to shower and wash his hair and was about to apply his Hair Growing Cream again, his look became very dubious when he saw the jar.

That was odd, why did he feel that his Hair Growing Cream was going so quickly? It was almost all gone. He didn't think he was even using that much every time.

After he had applied it one more time and after he had walked out of the bathroom, his girlfriend Gu YueYue came home as well. Her long hair was flowing in the hair and the curves that it made when she walked was charming.

Lu Jing stared intensely at his girlfriend's hair and asked solemnly, "YueYue, did you use my Hair Growing Cream without me knowing?"

Even his voice suggested how unfairly he was feeling.

The corner of Gu YueYue's lips twitched and she said righteously, "This was all your fault! This Hair Growing Cream works like a champ, how could you not share it with me? Is our relationship not more important than a jar of Hair Growing Cream?"

Lu Jing felt even more unfairness. "I offered to buy them for you and you turned me down. You even called it paying the 'intelligence tax'." He would have otherwise purchased two cans from the very beginning!

Gu YueYue shrugged it off. "No, I never said that. You must be dreaming."

"Aye, they will be releasing a new batch tomorrow, right? I am sure there will be even more competition this time. Your office has faster internet. You should stay and work overtime tomorrow and try to get another jar! Oh, you can even solicit your coworkers' help! This product is so amazing! My hair really has been so much better since I had used it."

Lu Jing was speechless. Did his girlfriend just ask him to work overtime just so he could have a better change of securing a jar of Hair Growing Cream? Welp, she was his girlfriend so what choices did he have? He had no choice but to dote on her!
