The party A who wants to soak me

Emancipate the mind... He didn't feel that he was bound by the four words that Lingling couldn't get rid of in Yueming Building, but he really had no idea how to emancipate his mind.

Shen Mingyu, the second-generation ancestor, can liberate his nature without restraint. He doesn't know how difficult it is for a social animal to do this. If he is not careful, he will be scolded by the client sooner or later.

When it was almost lunch time, Zhuo Pai invited a few colleagues to have a simple meal near the building, and then returned to the company. Lingling walked to the parking lot and suddenly had a thought. He just went to see what new products are in the most high-end supermarkets, so he decided to do market research.

After talking to Zhuo Pai, he took the subway to the city center by himself.

I don’t remember how long it’s been since I’ve been shopping. Necessary living facilities can be found nearby. I search the Internet for any information I need to check. Going offline is more like a nostalgic behavior.

I went directly to Lihui, the largest imported supermarket, which is located on the first and second basement floors of the most high-end shopping mall in this city. Most of the underground space is occupied by it. Ling Ling took a little stroll and saw that there are all kinds of the latest products from all over the world. Grow fresh produce, then head straight to the drinks area.

This category occupies most of the lower first floor of the first floor. The huge shelves are full of a variety of packaged drinks from all over the world, glass bottles, plastic bottles, soft drinks, cans... There are many brands called Lingling. The name is not revealed, and the packaging is printed with the language of various countries, and the import label is attached.

He really realized that this is indeed not the era of "Zi Zi Xiang", and thinking of Shen Mingyu's stubbornness and urgency, Ling Ling had a little bit of understanding for him.

At first glance, there are almost all good-looking drinks and drinks, "Beauty is justice", what Shen Mingyu said in the morning broke in again, Ling Ling picked up a bottled drink printed in Korean, and carefully looked at its bottle shape And the packaging design, followed by searching the online sales of this drink on the Internet, and the comments are full of praises, "It looks good, cute, and hits my pink girl's heart", Lingling clicks her tongue, and now people buy it Sure enough, things no longer look at the core, and the appearance is really king.

But he still had an occupational disease, and deduced their brand positioning from the outer packaging design, bottle shape, material, and logo of each drink.

This is actually quite an interesting thing. Lingling doesn’t feel bored, and the drinks all around are also very good-looking. He pushed a trolley and bought a lot while looking at it. He found that in addition to the Japanese and Korean drinks in the traditional cognition The packaging is well done, and now the beverages in Thailand are also doing very well. The packaging of each type is very eye-catching. Compared with the usual cold style in Japan and South Korea, the design of Thai beverages is bolder, and each type looks very delicious. desire to buy.

Unconsciously, he piled up half a trolley, and then he saw a very outstanding Thai drink, boldly mixed with green and pink tones, and an oval glass bottle. Lingling picked it up and looked at it for a while. Pomegranate juice, just about to put it into the cart, a voice came from behind: "Does my junior like this too?"

Lingling was startled, and when she turned around, she saw a familiar face she hadn't seen for a long time: "Brother Jin, why are you here?"

This is Jin Ru'an, his brother from the same department in college, who is two years older than him. Jin Ru'an is capable of both literature and martial arts, and is also the chairman of the student union. He is handsome, professional and good at dancing. Seldom participated in various club activities with him.

Later, after Jin Ru'an graduated, contact naturally decreased. Lingling heard that his family was in a good position, and within half a year he opened a studio by himself, and it was running like that.

Later, when Ling Ling graduated, Jin Ru'an sincerely handed over an olive branch and invited him to join his company. Ling Ling would still be a favorite, and he faced many choices. His teacher recommended Zhuo Pai, saying that Zhuo Pai It is a well-known and old-fashioned design studio in this city, and it is more reliable, so Ling Ling declined Jin Ru'an politely.

The old man was naturally happy to meet Lingling again, but also surprised, and a little embarrassed. Ever since he rejected Jin Ru'an at graduation, the two had no contact, and they had never met each other in the job competition. But Lingling found that Jin Ru'an Ru'an was not embarrassed, and smiled freely as before.

"I've noticed you since you came in. You seem to have something to do, and you didn't come to bother you with a serious face. Why, it seems that you are still doing your old job?" Jin Ruan asked him.

Ling Ling smiled and said, "Yeah, that's all I can do, just earn a living."

"It's not like you to be so humble."

Lingling was a little embarrassed and didn't talk to him. Jin Ruan looked at the drink in his hand and asked with a smug smile, "Is this one not bad?"

Lingling nodded, reacted belatedly, opened her eyes wide and asked, "Did you do it?"

Jin Ru laughed loudly, nodded and said, "Yes, I took the order and I did the design."

He took the drink in Lingling's hand, turned the column of product information and explained to Lingling: "This is a new drink brand under the Tido Group in Thailand, and I took over their entire case design."

"So amazing!" Ling Ling sighed sincerely, Jin Ru'an has really done a good job in the past few years, and his business has covered Southeast Asia.

Jin Ru smiled so much that his eyebrows stretched, he turned the bottle in his hand to look at it, and said, "It's okay, these days is the first time this drink has been introduced to domestic supermarkets, and it's just been distributed. The channel has not been opened yet, currently only Lihui has the goods, I came here specially to see the actual effect, and found that it is not bad, at least it was picked by you at a glance, which shows that the effect is good."

Ling Ling also laughed, and felt that Jin Ru'an's style of doing things was also safe, not as a shopkeeper after finishing the design, but also seeing the effect on the spot, he was a responsible service provider.

It was rare to meet a non-competitive high-level colleague who was also an old acquaintance of alumni. Lingling had many questions to ask for advice, so Jin Ru'an suggested that we should have afternoon tea together and find a place to sit down and have a good chat.

As she spoke, she naturally pushed Ling Ling's trolley and walked towards the cashier. Ling Ling suddenly remembered, and said, "Don't wait, I'll get off later, I still need to find something."

He went back to the huge drinking area, shuttled between the shelves on several high walls, looking for a scent.

Jin Ru'an pushed the cart and followed him, and asked him what he was looking for, Lingling said, "Well, it's just an old-fashioned domestic beverage, I don't know if it's available here."

Although Zizaixiang is still the No. [-] national brand of herbal tea, Ling Ling has never drank it. This brand is indeed not something that young people would choose. In my impression, the older generation drinks more. In this international trendy product Shang Chao, Ling Ling is not confident that he can find it.

In the end, Jin Ru'an directly asked, "Are you looking for Zi Zai Xiang?"

Lingling was a little surprised, and nodded subconsciously. Jin Ru'an showed a connotative smile and said, "Such products will not be favored in such a supermarket. Even if they are displayed, they will not be on the dominant shelf. At least there won’t be any places that can be seen at a glance, maybe look in the corner to see if there are any, haven’t you noticed that the drinks here are arranged according to their appearance.”

Lingling felt unspeakably uncomfortable, but it was a fact that in business, if he were the owner of this supermarket, he would put the best-looking products in the most conspicuous area.

The colorful drink area, any bottle of drink in your hand can be posed on Xiaohongshu, and the price is also expensive. Lingling looked all the way, and just now she just looked at the packaging and didn't pay attention to the price. Only then did she find these beautiful drinks , A random bottle of lemonade costs about ten yuan, and drinks with fruit juice are more than ten or twenty. He found Zizaixiang and other series of tea drinks from Yueming Group in the bottom right corner of the last row of shelves. Xiang has not mentioned the price for almost ten years. The canned herbal tea is 2 yuan, and the bottled 3 yuan. The prices of other herbal tea drinks are also cheap. Among the expensive Internet celebrity products, it seems very out of date and abrupt.

Lingling took a bottle of each flavor of tea, and the reference samples in the trolley were piled up like a hill, and she felt a little heartbroken when she paid the bill. Then she thought that this was considered work expenses, and wondered if Zhuo Pai would reimburse her.

Divided into several large plastic bags to carry, he and Jin Ru'an could only carry them with four hands. Before they walked out of the supermarket, the surroundings were still noisy. Shen Mingyu called Lingling, Lingling glanced at the screen, It was very inconvenient to switch the two bags to one hand, and then pick them up. Shen Mingyu asked him at the other end: "Has Mr. Ling returned to the company? Have you got any new ideas after today's meeting?"

Lingling cursed in her heart, how many hours has passed?Is there such a reminder?It's really inconvenient for him to talk on the phone, so he replied briefly: "Not yet, I'm doing market research."

Just when the two of them walked out of the supermarket gate, Jin Ruan asked him: "Xiao Ling, are you driving? If not, why don't you put your things in my car first, and I'll drive you back later?"

Lingling took the phone away, and said to Jin Ruan, "Oh, yes, I'm not driving."

Then put the receiver closer, and heard Shen Mingyu's tone a little impatient: "Who is next to you?"

Lingling ignored it directly, holding two bags in one hand and panicked, he hung up the phone in a hurry, and said: "Xiao Boss Shen, I have to hang up first, and then contact me."

"Hey——" Shen Mingyu cut off half of what he was saying, and the phone was already hung up. Ling Ling and Jin Ru'an walked to the underground parking lot together, thinking, who cares who is next to me?
