The Supporting Actress Made A Comeback

Chapter 562 - 563: Trouble at the Company

It was a small black box, looking very simple and restrained.

Qin An was overjoyed and opened it to find a pen.

Ji Nan said, "Princess really likes you, the last time she liked someone this much, it was only Gu Wenjuan."

Qin An’s joy paused for a moment, and she said seriously, "I am me, and Gu Wenjuan is Gu Wenjuan. She didn’t appreciate Princess Mo’s kindness, but I do! I will not become the second Gu Wenjuan."

Ji Nan looked at her and nodded but ultimately said nothing and quickly left.

Qin An looked at the pen in her hand as if it were a treasured possession, solemnly hiding it in her safe.

This was... the first time Princess Mo had given her a gift.

Mo Shu had been recuperating for a while and knew very little about the company.

But she guessed that since Grandpa had been looking after the company for so many years, it should’ve been stable as usual.

However, the company had to face troubles right at this moment.

Besides real estate, the Mo Family was also involved in other industries, but only as investors; their focus was still on the luxury branded sector.

This luxury brand was not just jewelry but also included bags, men’s and women’s apparel, perfumes, shoes, lifestyle furniture, and more.

While jewelry, especially from Jijue, was important, it was only a small part of the business.

The main source of revenue still came from bags.

The Mo Family’s luxury bags had always been highly praised, as they used real animal leather and fur for their materials. But recently, customers had been constantly reporting that the bags purchased from boutiques were peeling, and upon inspection, they turned out to be synthetic leather, priced at tens of thousands or even over a hundred thousand, despite promises of genuine leather and fur – a clear case of consumer fraud.

After an investigation by the top management at Jijue, it was discovered that one of the manufacturers was at fault.

The real leather had been stolen and replaced with fake leather of extremely high-quality imitation.

To suppress this issue, the top management at Jijue dealt with the manufacturer’s responsible person, withdrew a series of products that had been listed, and also recalled every sold bag from the affected series.

Nonetheless, some consumers refused to let it go, insisting on making a fuss over the issue, and began spreading it widely on Weibo, rapidly tarnishing Jijue’s reputation.

This incident not only caused Jijue bag sales to plummet steeply but even Jijue Jewelry and Jijue Apparel suffered great damage.

Seeing that they couldn’t hide it any longer, the top management finally reported it upward.

The current situation was that manufacturing had stopped, the responsible party had been fired, and the aggrieved consumers were still making trouble, with Jijue’s top management unable to appease them and at a loss for what to do.

Latter, someone came up with the rotten idea to pay off the troublemakers to shut them up.

When Mo Shu saw this blunder, she knew it was doomed to fail.

Those who could afford Jijue bags were not short of money; it was obvious that someone was determined to bring down Jijue. This misstep was exactly what the opposition wanted, and so, the issue only became bigger and more uncontrollable.

Mo Shu literally laughed out of frustration when she heard the whole story.

It was a textbook example of idiotic handling.

Mo Shu went to the company, called the executive responsible for the bad idea, and scolded him thoroughly.

The executive was scolded to the point he didn’t dare to breathe heavily, but because Mo Shu was a young woman, he also harbored some contempt in his heart and was not truly convinced.
