Start a Cosmetics Company

When Gu Chenan first graduated, he couldn't find a job that he liked and was suitable for.

At that time, he was still in the group chat and shared this issue with the others there, intending to vent and see if anyone could help.

However, unexpectedly, the responses from the group were not comforting, but rather full of a sense of superiority from those in better positions.

Some bluntly said that Gu Chenan's university was too poor, others boasted about their own current situations, and some even jokingly told Gu Chenan to go screw bolts.

In short, no one showed any intention of helping Gu Chenan.

Then again, Gu Chenan didn't really expect these old classmates to help him, but if you're not going to help, why flaunt your superiority?

Moreover, those who used to ignore me, why are you all flocking around now that you've heard I bought a large villa?

Should I say you're opportunists, or that you know how to curry favor with the powerful?

Gu Chenan thought for a moment and replied, "You're all joking, my old classmates. Your situations are all better than mine. It would be a loss for me to support you."

After Gu Chenan sent this message, people in the group immediately started replying.

"You're the one who's joking. No matter how good our conditions are, how can they compare to you buying a villa outright?"

"That's right, tell us, where exactly did you make your fortune, Gu? Bring your brothers along!"

"Sigh, I was thinking about catching up with Gu recently. Do you think he'll think I'm trying to curry favor with him if I reach out now?"

"Gu, you never come to our annual class reunions. You're coming this year, right? We've invited you every year, but you never show up. Isn't that a bit disrespectful?"

Class reunion?

Seeing this message, Gu Chenan was slightly stunned.

Wait a minute...

Do high school classmates still have reunions? How come I don't know about this?

And they say they've invited me but I never come? When did you ever invite me?

"We still have class reunions? I had no idea. Besides, you've never invited me, have you?" Gu Chenan replied.

After this message was sent, the group was silent for a full minute before new messages appeared.

"Huh? We never invited you? Oh my, look at my memory. I can't believe we forgot about you. It's my fault, it's my fault. This year I'll personally invite you, and I'll drink three glasses as punishment in front of you!"

"Hey, Liu, your memory! Look at this mess, making Gu think we old classmates are excluding him."

"Exactly, Gu, it's like this. If you come this year, we'll all drink three glasses to apologize!"

Seeing this, Gu Chenan looked at the number of people in the group. Including him, there were only about twenty people.

Back then, their class had over sixty people. Even if some people left the group, it wouldn't be forty people, right?

So, this meant that this group didn't have many people to begin with.

Gu Chenan looked at the group list again, and as he looked, his eyebrows raised.

The people in this group now, apart from himself and Zhang Fan, were all elites.

There were directors of listed companies, group managers, private business owners, as well as teachers and doctors.

Anyone could see what the purpose of this group was. Or rather, this group that appeared to be a classmate group was actually a social resource group.

The people in this group were all useful and valuable to the others in the group.

And those forty classmates who weren't in this group were, of course, of no value to the group.

Just like Gu Chenan back then. Even if he left the group, no one would notice, and even if someone did notice, no one would add him back.

Because, at that time, he had no value to others.

Gu Chenan wasn't the type to hold grudges. These people looking down on him back then was entirely due to his own circumstances.

If he had been as wealthy then as he was now, how could these people have belittled him?

Now Gu Chenan was planning to do something, and he was just worrying about not having any connections in the real world, when these connections came knocking.

Wasn't this perfect timing?

"It's fine, let's have a good gathering this year and also reconnect with our classmates," Gu Chenan replied.

"Great, Gu, it's settled then!"

"No time like the present, why don't we meet in the next couple of days!"

"Right, let's do it in the next couple of days, and we can also check out Gu's big villa!"

"@Gu Chenan, what do you think, Gu?"

Gu Chenan didn't mind, in fact, he thought the sooner the better.

"Sure, I'm fine with that. You guys arrange it, I'm free anytime," Gu Chenan replied.

"Great, let's have a blast this year."

After chatting with the group for a while longer, Gu Chenan made up an excuse to leave the chat.

The people in the group didn't want to let Gu Chenan go, bombarding him with messages.

Their words were full of flattery and bootlicking.

It made Gu Chenan feel a bit dazed and helpless.

So this is what it's like to be rich...

Regardless of what kind of person you are, or how you got your money, as long as you're rich, you'll definitely gain others' respect.

To be honest, Gu Chenan found it quite ironic.

In the novel, he was spending money like water, and everyone knew he was rich, but he was still despised and scorned for his actions.

But in reality, even though he hadn't been in contact with these old classmates for a long time, just because he was rich, these people showed him utmost respect.

To be frank, the real world was even more fantastical than the world of novels.

Putting down his phone, Gu Chenan rubbed his face.

The group had just decided to have the class reunion on Saturday, two days later, so he could inquire about setting up a company.

Not counting his background that hadn't fully loaded yet, he currently had 70 million in cash, and it wouldn't make sense not to have a company.

Speaking of which, Gu Chenan knew nothing about business, and given his identity in the novel as an uneducated playboy who had run five or six companies into bankruptcy in three years.

If it were just him alone, he wouldn't dare to entertain the idea of starting a company.

But now it was different, he had Su Qianmo by his side.

In the novel, Su Qianmo wasn't just described as an ice beauty, she was also a female CEO who had been through the ups and downs of the business world for several years!

In the novel, the Su family's main business was real estate development, but Su Qianmo's cosmetics company was something she had built up step by step on her own.

This was enough to show how strong Su Qianmo's business acumen was.

If Su Qianmo were to serve as the CEO of the company, the company's success would definitely come twice as fast with half the effort.

Cosmetics?

Thinking of this, Gu Chenan suddenly realized something.

The field Su Qianmo was most familiar with was the cosmetics industry, so why don't I open a cosmetics company for her in reality?

With this thought, Gu Chenan immediately turned back to look at Su Qianmo.

"Qianmo, how about we open a cosmetics company?"

Su Qianmo was leaning against the headboard, holding her phone in one hand and swiping left and right, seemingly reading a web novel.

When she heard Gu Chenan's words, she paused slightly, then turned her head.

"Start our own?"

"Yes." Gu Chenan nodded and said, "Think about it, you're as familiar as can be with the cosmetics industry. Wouldn't opening a cosmetics company be like a fish in water for you?"

"That's true..." Su Qianmo put down her phone and sat up straight, saying, "So you plan to start everything from scratch? That's very difficult."

"Then what should we do?" Gu Chenan spread his hands.

Su Qianmo put her finger to her chin and thought for a moment before saying, "Let's acquire a company. Acquire a local company in Magic City. It doesn't need to be very famous, but it must have its own R&D department and a complete production line."

"A local company in Magic City..." Gu Chenan was a bit confused and said, "Local companies usually can't expand beyond the local market. Will that work?"

A smug and playful smile spread across Su Qianmo's face.

"You just handle the acquisition. Leave the rest to me."
