Chapter 1592 Investigate His Past


    Had Darren seriously just rejected her so tantly? Siena bit her lower lip, feeling displeased.


    “You can leave now,“ Darren said to Han.


    Once Han went out, Darren said to Siena in a cold tone, “Don''t think that I don''t know what''s on your


    mind. You should remember that you''re just a part-time employee here. I advise you to think before you


    act. Don''t make the mistake of thinking you''re irreceable. I can find ten people just like you in under


    a minute. Do you understand?“


    “I...“ Siena knew that her opinion didn''t matter, and that she hadn''t even graduated yet. Truth be told,


    she didn''t know how to bepetitive. She had only gotten this job out of sheer luck.


    So when she heard Darren''sment, she couldn''t help but feel a little disheartened.


    When she got home, she couldn''t stop thinking about his blunt statement. The more she thought about


    it, the sadder she felt.


    “I must get to know this man and make him fall in love with me!“ she muttered to herself. With this goal


    in mind, Siena sat up from the bed and wiped away her tears. Then, she turned on theputer.


    She wanted to find out everything about Darren—including his past.


    It didn''t take Siena that long to find out that Darren''spany had been on the verge of bankruptcy.


    However, under Darren''s leadership, thepany had managed to make aeback, and it was


    doing so much better now.


    Knowing this, she couldn''t help but admire Darren even more. He was indeed a capable, charming,


    and mature man!


    “Such a great man like him needs a woman by his side, right?“ she asked herself with a silly grin.


    Blinking at herputer screen, Siena wondered if Darren already had a lover, so she quickly looked it


    up.


    Soon enough, she found out all kinds of things about Bonnie, Darren''s lover.


    Admittedly, she was touched by the love story between Bonnie and Darren. They seemed like a perfect


    match.

    Darren was a faithful and affectionate man, and Bonnie seemed to be a greatdy who deserved all the


    love he could give.


    From reading about the couple, Siena seemed to already have a deep understanding of Darren''s


    romantic feelings for Bonnie. She wasn''t sure why. Perhaps it was because she and Bonnie both loved


    the same man. As she looked up more things about the man, her obsession grew stronger.


    At ten o''clock in the morning, the sun enveloped the entire city with its heat. It was scorching hot.


    At the HT Group''s office, Sam was reporting to Jacob while holding a stack of folders. A PowerPoint


    presentation could be seen on the projector screen.


    “ording to our recent data, after we released our skincare products, the sales of the KING Group''s


    skincare products dropped significantly. It went from thirty million sets a month to only five million sets a


    month.“


    Hearing this number, Jacob nodded with a satisfied gleam in his eyes. “The KING Group is still profiting


    from their sales though...“ he pointed out.


    Sam replied, “Yes. However, their current profit is definitely lower than what they used to make. Our


    sales have increased dramatically, but our profit is still pretty low because the production cost is quite


    expensive.“


    For a moment, Jacob pondered about their next move.


    “Well, then, let''s strike while the iron is hot. All of our stores online and in the shopping malls will have a


    promotion event featuring our products in all the series. This activity will be the responsibility of the


    nning Department. Remember, this event must leave a strong impression, I don''t care about the


    cost. Just attract more customers.“


    Upon hearing Jacob''s statement, Sam looked at him in surprise. “But Mr. Gu, our profit will be


    negligible. If we sell discounted products again, we might not even make any money at all,“ Sam


    protested.


    With a stern expression, Jacob shot Sam a look. “There''s no better time to strike than right now. We


    have to further control the sales. As long as we can defeat Darren, the HT Group can endure anything,“


    Jacob said with gravitas.


    Seeing that his boss had made up his mind, Sam didn''t say anything else. Instead, he quickly informed


    the president of the nning Department about Jacob''s instructions.


    “Mr. Gu said that we will have another discount. He doesn''t care about the cost. You are all established


    employees in thispany. I don''t need to say anything more. You know what you should do already,


    right?“ Sam asked.


    “Got it! The important thing is that we don''t lose money, yes? It''s not a problem! Mr. Gu is so generous.


    We must meticulously n this event so we can execute his orders well!“ The manager of the nning


    Department immediately understood what Sam was implying.


    As long as the conditions were met, the nning Department could n this activity without difficulty.


    The senior employees had been carefully trained by the HT Group. They would thoroughly analyze the


    data of all aspects of the products. As long as the cost was on par with the revenue, they could


    maximize consumption without incurring any loss.


    Satisfied with the manager''s reply, Sam nodded. “Well done, you all know Mr. Gu. If this n is


    sessful, he will give you a bonus,“ he added to motivate them even further.


    When the previous products wereunched for the first time, the sales of the HT Group had increased,


    and Jacob had given all the employees rewards for their hard work, like free travel, luxury goods, and


    so on.


    So as soon as Sam mentioned the bonus, everyone''s smiles widened. They all felt as if they were


    suddenly energized and wanted to work hard. Then, the employees quickly started to n the event.


    Within a week, the discount sale of all their products was reported on major websites. Unsurprisingly, it


    caught the eye of many eager consumers.


    The sale began at midnight. Within five minutes, many customers reported that the website crashed.


    When it was finally fixed, the orders had already reached about thirty million! This was equal to the total


    product sales of the KING Groupst month. That night, the Technical Department and Customer


    Service Department of the HT Group had to work overtime to keep up with the demands.


    As the sale continued in different stages, the sales of the products gradually increased.


    Many customers who used the KING Group''s skincare products were immediately swayed by the


    skincare products of the HT Group.


    Soon, the sales of the KING Group''s skincare products dropped to almost nothing. Even though the


    nning Department tried their best to keep their customers'' interest, their dwindling sales were not


    enough to maintain the operation of their skincare industry.


    Therefore, many of the KING Group''s shareholders demanded an emergency meeting with the


    president.


    “Mr. Xu, I believe that you''ve already been informed of what''s going on. Now, the HT Group has full


    control of the sales. What can we do about it?“ asked one of the experienced shareholders.


    If Darren had had any idea what to do, he wouldn''t have sat there and wasted his time discussing with


    the shareholders.


    Noticing that Darren didn''t reply, a young shareholder, who had just joined thepany, suggested,


    “The HT Group relies on discount activities. Why don''t we try that?“


    To the young shareholder''s dismay, his suggestion was immediately shot down by the rest of them.


    “Customers are not mindless idiots. They will figure out what we''re up to. Besides, we don''t stand a


    chance against the HT Group''s discount prices.“


    Someone said, “That''s odd. ording to my investigation, the HT Group isn''t even making money from


    this event! What''s their intention?“


    It was evident that the HT Group just wanted to fight against the KING Group, no matter what.


    “If that''s the case, then it''s still bad news. Ourpany is way too young topete against the HT


    Group''s abundant capital.“


    Everyone nodded in agreement. The person had a point. If the twopanies were equal in strength,


    they could also do a discount activity of their own to increase their sales. However, their capital was far


    more inferior to that of the HT Group. It was impossible for them to fight against thatpany.


    As he listened to the meeting, Darren clenched his fist in anger. He remembered that moment when


    Jacob had called him just to show off his power with an irritatingugh.
