From Sidekick to Bigshot Novel - Chapter 919
Chapter 919: XDL’s Product Launch Event (3)
On the other hand, Hu Jiaojiao’s mother dressed splendidly. However, the way she dressed made her look like a person who only became rich through unexpected opportunities. Her clothes were expensive, however, they were not tasteful.
Hu Jiaojiao’s mother was upset by the woman’s words. However, she didn’t say anything because Jian Yiling brought her here today.
After all, this was Beijing. Anything could happen here. A billboard dropping could kill off powerful individuals in society. Therefore, it was best to not offend anyone.
It didn’t matter if she got into trouble. However, she didn’t want to cause Jian Yiling any trouble.
After a long wait, at last, the event began.
As the person standing on the stage spoke English, Hu Jiaojiao’s mother could not understand what was being said.
“Hu Jiaojiao, what is that person saying?”
“Um… Mother… I’m not sure either…” Hu Jiaojiao replied. She wasn’t fluent in English either. She could do a few English questions however, the entire presentation was in English. As a result, she could barely catch any words.
Then, Hu Jiaojiao turned around and asked Jian Yiling: “Yiling, do you know what product they’re releasing today?”
“Water for hair growth,” Jian Yiling replied.
“Water for hair growth? Really?” Hu Jiaojiao’s mother exclaimed. “Wow! I definitely need to grab a few bottles then! I will give them to Hu Jiaojiao’s father. His hair is becoming bald! We need to cure that!”
“Not all types of hair loss can be cured,” Jian Yiling added.
After all, there were many different causes for hair loss.
Most of them had to do with genetics and hormones.
Hu Jiaojiao’s mother did not understand these things. Instead, she said: “Well, it doesn’t matter whether it works or not! I will buy a few bottles to let him try! Maybe it will help!”
Hu Jiaojiao also agreed to this: “Yes yes! My father’s hair loss should be treated! Otherwise, I think I won’t be able to see his hair in a few years!”
The fashionable woman seated beside Hu Jiaojiao’s mother laughed again: “It’s alright if you can’t understand English. There’s no need to speak nonsense. The person on the stage hasn’t even introduced the product yet. Water for hair growth? What nonsense.”
“Don’t say that! Yiling’s English is amazing. She wouldn’t be mistaken! You must not be listening to the presentation!” Hu Jiaojiao declared angrily as she defended her friend.
Hu Jiaojiao’s mother also supported her daughter’s words: “Yeah! My daughter’s friend is amazing! If you don’t understand, don’t speak nonsense!”
“I’m speaking nonsense? Well, if you don’t believe me, ask anyone else present. No one has mentioned water for hair growth. The newly released product hasn’t even been announced yet,” the woman said with conviction.
Upon hearing this, Hu Jiaojiao and her mother were confused.
Just at this moment, the new product was announced.
Images of the new product appeared on the screen.
There was an English and Chinese version for the product introduction.
As a result, the words “Water for Hair Growth” were displayed on the screen.
Now, there was no need for Jian Yiling to translate for them. After all, Hu Jiaojiao and her mother could read the words on the screen.
“See! It’s water for hair growth! Look at it yourself! Yiling wouldn’t lie!”
The fashionable woman froze.
At the time Jian Yiling spoke, the new product had not yet been announced.
However, the product that appeared on the screen was clearly what Jian Yiling had said.
“How can this be… Just now…” the woman stuttered as she looked at the screen and then looked at the country bumpkins beside her.
XDL’s work was highly confidential. As a result, no one should know about the new product before the official announcement.
“How did you know in advance what the new product for today’s launch was?” the woman asked Jian Yiling.
