Chapter 284 I Just Can't Help It
Chen Bo was slightly stunned, then smiled and replied: "Madam, I am 28 years old this year."
Lin Wanwan nodded and said thoughtfully, "You are young and promising now. Chen Bo, do you have a girlfriend?"
Xia Lan, who was standing by, immediately pricked up her ears and listened carefully. She was also very curious whether this Assistant Chen had a girlfriend.
Facing Lin Wanwan's sudden question, Chen Bo smiled awkwardly, "Haha, Madam, why do you suddenly ask this?"
Lin Wanwan smiled and said, "This is just a casual chat. You see, Lanlan is still single. I thought if you don't have a partner either, maybe I can introduce you two to each other." Xia Lan's cheeks flushed slightly when she heard this, and she said angrily, "Wanwan, what are you talking about? There is no one like you."
Chen Bo scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly: "Madam, I don't have a girlfriend yet, but I'm busy with work, so I haven't considered this for the time being."
Lin Wanwan waved her hand and said, "No matter how busy you are at work, you can't delay your lifelong event. Lanlan is a good girl, straightforward and kind. If you two can get together, I will have done a good thing."
Xia Lan coughed lightly and changed the subject, "Wanwan, let's talk about the gallery's decoration style first. I think it can be simple and modern, which can better highlight the texture of the paintings and jewelry."
Lin Wanwan followed her words and said, "The simple and modern style is good, but we should also consider incorporating some artistic elements to make the entire space more stylish. Chen Bo, do you have any ideas?"
Chen Bo thought seriously for a moment and replied, "Madam, Miss Xia, I think we can add some artistic graffiti or reliefs on the wall. This will reflect the artistic atmosphere without appearing too complicated. The lighting design is also very important. We need to choose the kind of lighting that can highlight the characteristics of the exhibits."
Lin Wanwan and Xia Lan looked at each other, with admiration in their eyes.
Xia Lan smiled and said, "Assistant Chen, I didn't expect you to have such insights in this area. Wanwan, it seems that our team is really full of hidden talents."
Fu Ze smiled embarrassedly, "Miss Xia, you are joking. I just said it casually. You don't have to take it seriously."
Lin Wanwan smiled and said, "Assistant Chen, you don't have to be so modest. I've known you for so long, if you didn't have some ability, would you have become the president's special assistant?"
Xia Lan looked curious, holding Lin Wanwan's hand, and couldn't help asking, "Wanwan, it is said that the president's special assistant earns a million a year, is that true?"
Lin Wanwan smiled and patted Xia Lan's hand, saying, "Lan Lan, it depends on the specific situation. The treatment offered by different companies and different bosses is quite different. But Chen Bo has been in the Huo Group for so long and his ability is so outstanding, so his treatment will definitely not be bad."
Chen Bo quickly said, "Young Madam, you are too kind. Salary and benefits are secondary. What is important is that Mr. Huo trusts me and gives me the opportunity to learn and work with him. I think this is more valuable than salary."
Xia Lan nodded and said with admiration: "Assistant Chen has a really good attitude. If it were someone else, they would probably only think about the high annual salary. By the way, Wanwan, when our gallery opens, in addition to the activities we mentioned before, do you want to prepare some souvenirs? This will also leave a good impression on the guests."
Lin Wanwan's eyes lit up and she responded, "That's a good idea, Lanlan. As souvenirs, you can choose some small and exquisite jewelry samples, or exquisite picture albums with our gallery logo, which are both practical and can play a promotional role. Chen Bo, what do you think?"
Chen Bo thought for a moment and said, "Madam, Miss Xia, I think it's great, but we need to put some thought into the packaging of the souvenirs. We need to design them to be exquisite and stylish. It would be best if they could reflect the characteristics of our gallery and jewelry company, so that customers will feel that it is thoughtful and unique at first glance."
Xia Lan agreed, "Yes, packaging is indeed very important. We have to think about it carefully. Also, Wanwan, we have to decide on a theme for the first batch of jewelry series launched by the jewelry company, and we also have to think about what style to focus on."
Lin Wanwan frowned slightly and fell into deep thought. After a moment, she said, "I thought we could focus on the natural style, incorporating natural elements such as flowers, trees, mountains and rivers into the design. Now everyone wants to be close to nature, so this style should be quite popular. Chen Bo, you usually see a lot with Mr. Huo, what do you think of the market response to this style?"
Chen Bo answered while driving, "Madam, I think the natural style is quite popular. Nowadays, many people buy jewelry not only for the material, but also for the meaning and emotion contained in the design. The meaning of natural elements is beautiful and fresh. As long as the design is exquisite, it will definitely attract many customers."
The three of them were driving and discussing, and before they knew it, they arrived at the apartment building where Xia Lan lived.
"Wanwan, I'm here." Xia Lan waved goodbye to Lin Wanwan.
Lin Wanwan smiled and said, "Lanlan, go back and have a good rest. Let's make good use of the time these days to do more preparatory work. If you have any new ideas, feel free to tell us in the group."
"Okay." Xia Lan waved her hand and also waved to Chen Bo, saying gratefully, "Assistant Chen, thank you for sending me home."
Chen Bo also said politely: "Miss Xia, you're welcome. Please take care."
After closing the car door, Xia Lan stood there and waved to the two people in the car. She watched the car slowly drive away before turning and walking towards the apartment building.
In the car, Lin Wanwan said to Chen Bo again: "Chen Bo, please help me sort out some popular trends in the jewelry design industry in recent years, as well as some successful brand cases. I want to study them in depth to see if I can learn from their experience."
Chen Bo replied: "Okay, Madam, I'll sort it out and send it to you in the next two days. By the way..."
At this point, Chen Bo smiled and said, "Madam, in fact, our President Huo has the most experience in this regard. If you have any questions, you can ask President Huo."
Lin Wanwan was slightly startled, a faint blush appeared on her cheeks, and she said softly: "He is so busy on weekdays, I don't have the nerve to bother him all the time to ask these things. Besides, I also want to sort out these things with my own abilities first, and try not to rely on him."
Chen Bo glanced at Lin Wanwan in the rearview mirror and said with a smile, "Madam, Mr. Huo actually cares about your career very much. If you ask him, he will definitely be happy to help. Moreover, Mr. Huo has a unique vision in business, and he may be able to give you some unexpected inspiration."
Lin Wanwan nodded slightly and said thoughtfully: "Well, I understand."
As night fell, inside Luming Manor, after Lin Wanwan coaxed her two adorable babies to sleep, she curled up in bed and began to draw the design.
After taking a shower, Huo Jingchen came out of the bathroom, wrapped only in a bath towel, his hair still wet. He saw Lin Wanwan in pajamas, holding a notebook on the bed, writing and drawing.
"Wife, what are you busy with?"
Lin Wanwan raised her eyes and glanced at Huo Jingchen, only to see him holding a clean handkerchief, wiping his wet hair, and walking towards her.
"I'm drawing designs for my gallery."
Hearing this, Huo Jingchen came over with a curious look on his face, "You want to open a gallery?"
Lin Wanwan smiled and nodded, "Yes, I want to open a gallery and a jewelry company to fulfill the dream I wanted to fulfill three years ago."
Huo Jingchen sat down beside the bed, put his arm around Lin Wanwan's shoulders, his eyes full of doting, and said, "Wife, it's a good thing that you have a dream, I will definitely support you with all my strength. But opening a gallery and a jewelry company is not an easy thing. If you encounter any difficulties, don't just hold on by yourself, be sure to tell me."
Lin Wanwan leaned in his arms, looking up at him slightly, "I know you will support me, but I also want to try to do these things with my own ability, so that I can feel more accomplished when I look back on them in the future. Today, Lanlan, Chen Bo and I discussed a lot about the gallery and the jewelry company, such as the gallery's decoration style and the jewelry company's product themes."
Huo Jingchen raised his eyebrows and asked with interest: "Oh? So what are you going to do? Tell me about it. Maybe I can give you some ideas."
Lin Wanwan then told them what they had discussed one by one, "The gallery plans to go for a simple and modern style, and incorporate some artistic elements, such as adding graffiti or reliefs on the walls, and the lighting design must also be carefully arranged to highlight the characteristics of the exhibits. As for the first batch of jewelry series of the jewelry company, we want to focus on the natural style, and incorporate elements such as flowers, trees, mountains and rivers into the design. I think it will be very popular."
After hearing this, Huo Jingchen nodded slightly and praised, "It's a good idea, wife. But when it comes to implementation, we still have to consider a lot of details. For example, the budget control for gallery decoration, as well as the cost and craftsmanship difficulty of jewelry design, all of these need to be carefully considered."
Lin Wanwan said thoughtfully, "Well, I've thought of these, so I asked Chen Bo to help me sort out the popular trends and successful brand cases in the jewelry design industry in recent years. I want to learn more from their experience and try to consider every aspect carefully."
Huo Jingchen smiled and gently tapped Lin Wanwan's nose with his finger, "Wife, you are serious about your work, but don't tire yourself out too much."
As he said that, Huo Jingchen hugged the back of Lin Wanwan's head and kissed her on the lips.
Lin Wanwan looked surprised and subconsciously covered her lips, her clear eyes flickering, "Jing Chen, what are you doing?"
"I just suddenly want to kiss you. What's the matter? You're my wife, is it not possible?" Huo Jingchen curled his lips and looked at her with a half-smile, a dark glint in his eyes.
Lin Wanwan blushed immediately, "But, aren't we talking about something?"
"I just couldn't help it. I suddenly felt that my wife was so beautiful when she was working hard on her career." Huo Jingchen said, then he took Lin Wanwan's hand and gave her a light kiss on the back of her hand.
