A Promising Youth

Chapter 31 Convince or Not?!

As soon as the words fell, there was instant laughter throughout the room!

Clara gave me a wink and said with a red face.

“Come on, stop that, okay? The company can't do this even if we don’t develop well?!”

“What's wrong with doing this? It's a necessity of life. Clara, what is wrong with you?”

Tilting my head up, I looked across the room and said.

“Had enough of laughing?!”

“Matteo, there's no need to compete, the Blue Butterfly Textile Factory hasn't fallen so low that we have

to save even the fabric for making clothes! Come down, Mr. Marcel wins already.”

The second shareholder sat down on the stage and gloated.

I took a deep breath, looked at the second shareholder and said.

“You guys are still a bunch of trash.”

Hearing this, the second shareholder shot to his feet.

“Who are you calling trash?!”

I gritted my teeth and said.

“If I am right, once upon a time, the Blue Butterfly Textile Factory had been glorious because of Clara's

mother, right? Once she had died, the company fell into ruin. Aren’t you shareholders trash? What have

you done for the company? If you are competent, how did the company get to this point?”

“You…”

The second shareholder's eyes were red, but he could not utter a word.

“Let's not talk about my proposal, let's talk about it Marcel’s the high-flying plan!”

Looking at them, I banged the table hard and said.

“Blue Butterfly Textile Factory was not a Fortune 500 company, but a small business that is

underperforming and even facing bankruptcy at any moment!”

Turning my head, I looked to Marcel and said.

“Do you understand the company's money flow? To tell you the truth, we can't even pay the workers'

salaries next month, so how can we have the money to make a high-end clothing brand? To advertise?

To broaden the channel? The primary goal of Blue Butterfly now is to stay alive!”

“We can find financing and investors!”

Marcel took off his glasses and retorted back at me irritably.

“Find financing? Where to? At the economic summit the other day, not a single investor would give us

money! Besides, even with financing, how are we going to compete with high-end brands? Money,

power, connections, which is better than others?”

“I don't need to elaborate the garment industry, do I? Carrie has connection and money, but her

clothing factory in the end could only be run in the countryside. It is far away from a third-rate clothing

brand. Does Blue Butterfly have the strength as JL Company Garment Factory?”

The second shareholder growled, puffing out the veins in his forehead.

“We can’t still make underwear! It is a shame! I slammed the table.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“Shut up! Greyson, no matter what the outcome is, you're no longer a member of the factory, so you

better keep your mouth shut!”

Having said that, I turned to the crowd and added.

“At the moment, the company's priority is to survive, so women's underwear is our best first choice in a

market that is not too competitive yet!”

“Matteo, I understand your thoughts, but this is not a long-term solution. My mother's last wish was to

create the Blue Butterfly clothing brand, so the goal of the company is still to make clothing.”

Clara said with pursed lips, looking at me torn.

I turned my gaze to Marcel, who by then had long since lost his face. I said, “Marcel, tell everyone why

I make underwear. If you can't even see that, you are just a trash!”

Marcel took a deep breath, slowly looked up and said. “Women's underwear is known as women's

“second organ”. If a underwear brand can make women wear comfortable with less money, it will get

women's favor, and subsequently, they will trust and attach to the brand.”

I added, “I've seen the fabric of our factory, 80% cotton fabric, it's quite comfortable to touch. It's most

suitable as the raw material for intimate underwear!

And in my hand, I still have a set of fabric dyeing formulas, which are specifically for intimate apparel. I

am sure that as long as the pricing is reasonable, our Blue Butterfly brand of underwear will quickly

take over the surrounding market in a short time!”

When I finished, Marcel looked down and added.

“As long as the consumers have a sense of brand trust, if Blue Butterfly transformed to do women's

clothing, even without publicity, those women who have worn Blue Butterfly underwear will choose Blue

Butterfly clothing. As long as the market is opened for women’s clothing, the sales of men's clothing will

not be a problem. After all, men's clothes are bought by women, so with control of the women, we

basically won the market!”

“Does everyone hear that? My plan has three steps. As long as the company doesn't go wrong, I'm

80% sure that I can make Blue Butterfly Clothing popular from an unknown brand!”

At that moment, the entire conference room was silent. I spoke so meticulously, even Bill should have

understood it.

Walking off the stage, I looked to Marcel and asked.

“Do you concede defeat?”

He held the glasses in his hand tightly and squeezed two words out of his teeth.

“Yes!

“Convinced?”

“Yes!”

“I hope you'll keep your word and tell Greyson to hand back his stake immediately and get out of the

company!”

With that, I turned around and left the conference room!

Back in Clara's office, I packed my bag and looked around this office and out the window at the factory.

I had only been here a few days, but was reluctant to leave.

The days with Clara were the happiest moments in my life, but I knew that this happiness would never

come again.

Because the person she liked was Marcel, what was the point of me staying?

Watching them all day?

Honestly, it made me heartbroken.

Now that the company's troubles had been resolved.

With the formula of ‘General Grey’, the cloth dyed by Clara would sell well. Although no one believed

the land in JB District will make money, I firmly believed that in less than a year, that land would

definitely appreciate in value!

‘Sis, thank you for helping me, taking care of me these days, and making me have a feeling of home.

But I'm leaving, what I can do for you is only this. For the future development of the company, as long

as you follow those three steps I've planned, you will definitely be able to fulfill your mother's last wish

and make Blue Butterfly brand popular.’

I had long been teary-eyed, but I did not expect that Clara had already arrived at the door.

“Why are you leaving? Give me a reason.”

She looked at me quietly, with her eyes deep in question.

“No...nothing, I just have more important things to do.”

Tilting my head up, I took a deep breath, but I couldn't tell her that I liked her and I didn't want to see

she was with another man.

I knew what kind of person I was. Rather than be rejected, I would like to bury the love in my heart.

“Don’t leave, ok? Maybe there are some things that are not what you think they are.”

She said as she came over and grabbed my arm.

“Sis, I'm really busy with something else. I'm right here in R City, you can see me anytime.”

Trying to squeeze a smile out of my face at her, I pushed her hand away and walked away.

I was going to find Sienna to save Master!

I would make it.
