Traveling between the 70s and the modern world

Chapter 488 Cosmetics Company

A suburb of Boston, Massachusetts, Country M.

Lin Qingyan bought a house here, which serves as her and Lin Qingxuan’s home in Country M. They come here to rest during holidays.

At this time, Lin Qingyan, Lin Qingxuan and John were sitting on the lawn in their yard, discussing their cooperation project.

After John learned about the specific project from Lin Qingyan, he took the samples made by Lin Qingyan and asked someone in his company to follow up on the experiment.

After a period of verification, John came to Lin Qingyan as soon as he got the experimental data and verification results.

"Lin, do you know that the cosmetics you made have a very obvious anti-aging effect?

I asked the company's cleaning lady to use it for 14 consecutive days, and the skin on her face became noticeably smoother, and even the wrinkles she had previously had were less.

I can’t believe the results are like this, and now many people in the company are going to participate in this experiment.”

John introduced the experimental results with great interest. He didn't expect that Lin Qingyan could make cosmetics by tinkering in the laboratory.

When he got the cosmetics made by Lin Qingyan, he did not find someone to experiment with them immediately. Instead, he took them to his uncle's laboratory to check the ingredients inside. Only after he found that there were no ingredients harmful to the human body did he arrange for someone to do the testing.

"Lin, I took the cosmetics you made to my uncle's laboratory for testing, and no harmful ingredients were detected. This is the pure natural cosmetics that those ladies pursue.

I think once the final experimental data comes out, the product will definitely be sought after by wealthy ladies after it goes on the market, and may even beat many established cosmetic brands.”

Speaking of business, John's eyes sparkled.

Lin Qingyan knew that John would definitely test the ingredients of the cosmetics she gave him. Although John always looked silly, he would definitely not be silly when it came to his own interests.

"Do you want to cooperate with this project?"

Lin Qingyan directly asked about her purpose today. She wanted to build a laboratory for Qingxuan to support the research of his ideas.

It's just that any experiment needs money to support it, and of course the more money the better.

Otherwise, if the experiment is halfway through and finally comes to a standstill due to lack of funding, it would be better not to do the research at the beginning.

In fact, she has some money. In recent years, their 1979 chain stores have opened all over the country.

They also have their own clothing factory, which not only produces products for sale in their own stores, but also wholesales other series of products to other stores and shopping malls.

Their clothing factory has the most advanced equipment, the most outstanding and fashionable designers, and Lin Qingyan occasionally finds products from Hyundai.

Their clothing factory and their 1979 store have always been at the forefront of fashion, becoming the leader in the domestic clothing industry and a trendsetter in domestic fashion.

Both of them made her a lot of money.

Lian Qing also took the equipment she sent back and looked for partners everywhere. She used the equipment to invest in other companies and took up shares in some companies. These investments helped her make some money.

However, Lin Qingyan asked Lian Qing to take out half of her dividends for charity, build schools in various places, construct roads and bridges in remote areas, and give back to the country.

Everything she did was watched by the state. During the crackdown that year, someone reported Lian Qing for what he had done.

Lian Qing was also taken away by the relevant departments for investigation. However, before the relevant personnel had time to do anything, they received a call from above asking them to release him. Those people had no choice but to release Lian Qing unwillingly.

After experiencing this incident, Lian Qing admired Lin Qingyan even more, and he also took out a portion of his own dividends for charity. This habit continued until he grew old. Of course, this is all a story for later.

If Lin Qingyan wants to build a laboratory, she needs a lot of money, and there are many projects that can make money, such as cosmetics, health products, and daily necessities in life, which can help her make money quickly.

Lin Qingyan started thinking about this plan, and finally she chose cosmetics.

She made a set of basic cosmetics in the professor's laboratory. The ingredients of this set of cosmetics are commonly used in other cosmetics.

It’s just that the cosmetics she makes contain a special ingredient that is not found in other cosmetics, and that is space water.

In fact, without any experimentation, cosmetics that have been added with space water can beat most products on the market.

I don’t mention all the products because I don’t want to make it too full. In fact, cosmetics that add space water can definitely beat any product in seconds.

"Yes, Lin, we are good friends. I will definitely help you with such a good project."

He was staring at the small bottle in his hand when he saw John. When he heard Lin Qingyan ask him if he would cooperate, he immediately responded. He was not stupid, so how could he refuse?

"John, you have had someone check this product and have also found someone to experiment with it. You should know that once the product is launched, it will definitely become a long-lasting hit. I don't need your help."

Lin Qingyan looked at John calmly, and when she saw that he had stopped smiling, she continued:

"John, the reason I want to work with you on this project is to thank you for your help over the years.

Because of you, your uncle also gave me a lot of convenience, and I am grateful for that, so I have a request for cooperating with you."

"Lin, what's your request?"

John was not like the male protagonist in the TV series who agreed to anything regardless of the request. John was not stupid, nor was he the male protagonist. He asked Lin Qingyan's request very seriously.

"Cooperation with you means cooperation with you alone. It has nothing to do with your company or your uncle's company. Our cooperation is independent."

Lin Qingyan stated her request calmly.

"Why? I am no different from my company. Why do you want to cooperate with me?"

John really didn't understand at this moment. He wasn't pretending to be stupid, he really didn't understand.

Lin Qingxuan, who was standing by, glanced at John, and after confirming that he was not pretending to be stupid, he continued to write something with his head down.

However, Lin Qingyan looked at John seriously and said, "I am grateful to you personally, not to the other shareholders of your company."

John understood what he heard and said solemnly:

"Lin, I understand. I will take money from my personal account to participate in this project."

Lin Qingyan was relieved to see that he understood. She wanted to make money and needed John's support.

However, she does not want to give the right to speak in the company to other people. With more shareholders, there may be a lot of problems in the future, and she needs to avoid such troubles in advance.

After the two of them reached an agreement, Lin Qingyan discussed with John the company's specific equity distribution, location, management, product research and development, and other matters.

After some discussion, Lin Qingyan finally invested in the company with secret recipes and technology, holding 70% of the shares, John held 20%, and Lin Qingxuan, as a R&D staff, held 10% of the shares.

The secret recipe is in Lin Qingyan's hands, and John will never know that the most important thing about the secret recipe of cosmetics he saw is not the paste-like material, but the water that makes the material into a paste.

John just wanted to start a business with Lin Qingyan at this time, and was prepared to lose money. He did not fight for too much for the company's shares.

Lin Qingyan gave him 20% of the shares, and he took it without fighting for it again. However, he didn't know how much he would regret not fighting for more shares when he saw the continuous influx of funds in the future.

On the other side, Gu Yizhou has already contacted the people he wanted to contact. Now as long as he can send these people back home safely, his mission will be completed. And with his level, he will no longer be needed to go on missions in the future.
