Jiang Cheng continued, "I know everyone might not fully understand live stream sales. Take our company's most recent charity sale as an example. The day before the New Year Goods Festival, we at Xingchen held a charity live stream. Most of the company's Internet Celebrity streamers participated in the broadcast that day."
"That day, we directly sold 450,000 catties of mountain Rice, 50,000 cans of dried fruit, and 130,000 packs of instant oatmeal. These products all came from mountainous areas and were completely sold out within a day, helping over a thousand impoverished households in the mountains solve their sales difficulties."
Hearing Jiang Cheng mention the traffic and data of live stream sales, several department heads exchanged glances.
Although their faces still showed confusion as to whether this model could truly succeed...
...they had to admit in their hearts that this young man's sensitivity to the market was indeed astonishing.
While they were still pondering the tricks of internet celebrities filming videos, Jiang Cheng had already seen the possibilities of live stream pre-heating. This kind of foresight made these men, who had been immersed in the system for years, secretly click their tongues in wonder.
An Xin suddenly tugged at her father's sleeve.
She then spoke up, "Dad, I think Jiang Cheng's idea is great. When I was studying abroad, I saw many traditional brands revitalize themselves through a more youthful approach."
An Jingsheng gave his daughter a meaningful look.
His daughter was usually extremely steady in other matters, but every time she encountered something related to the inspection, she would lose her composure.
Seeing Jiang Cheng calmly handle everyone's questions with such clarity, he didn't seem like a layman at all.
Especially that sentence, 'If young people don't see a future, the craft won't be passed down,' really struck a chord with him.
Over the years, he had poured money into sponsoring intangible cultural heritage exhibitions; wasn't his goal to make young people willing to take over the mantle?
Jiang Cheng tied commercial interests together with the pain points of heritage. This insight made even a veteran of the business world like him feel that the younger generation was to be feared.
An Jingsheng glanced at Jiang Cheng and then said, "Your ideas are very interesting. Are you interested in viewing the rest of the exhibition with me? I'm quite familiar with many of the items inside and can explain them to you in detail."
Was he inviting him to start a private conversation between the two of them?
Jiang Cheng nodded very calmly. "Of course. It's my honor to have President An explain things to me."
After Jiang Cheng said this, An Xin, who was about to grab An Jingsheng's sleeve again, immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Then you two go ahead; don't mind us."
Once An Jingsheng said this, the others naturally nodded with smiles.
"Alright, please go ahead."
Compared to the restraint of the others, Jiang Cheng felt no pressure as he walked beside An Jingsheng.
Jiang Cheng speculated that the reason he didn't feel any pressure was probably because An Jingsheng wasn't his Father-in-law yet?
If he were his Father-in-law, Jiang Cheng would have shown him some more respect.
But for now, he and An Xin were at most 'extremely' good friends.
Setting aside social statuses, walking together like this felt a bit like strolling through an exhibition side-by-side with his own father.
Seeing Jiang Cheng looking calmly at the Handmade Bead Flowers in front of him...
An Jingsheng spoke first, "I heard your business in Shanghai is quite large. Why the sudden interest in Chengdu's intangible cultural heritage?"
Jiang Cheng started to spin a tale, "Commercial value is one aspect, but more importantly, these skills truly deserve to be seen by more people. My grandfather's generation loved collecting traditional handicrafts. Having been influenced by him since childhood, I have a special feeling for these things."
Jiang Cheng's casual answer seemed to touch An Jingsheng, and his cold expression softened slightly. "Oh? And your father is...?"
"President An should be quite clear on who my father is, right?"
These words neither revealed his full hand nor left him without an out.
Hearing this, the smile that curled at the corner of An Jingsheng's mouth held a hint of admiration.
This kid was not only sharp-witted but also meticulous, speaking without leaving any openings. He was far more mature than others his age.
It seemed his daughter had met quite a remarkable character this time.
He actually wanted to know, but he was afraid his own family's guesses might be wrong.
Although his background couldn't be uncovered, there were still directions for speculation.
"President Jiang is a very conscientious entrepreneur; I have naturally heard a bit about him."
Jiang Cheng skillfully shifted the topic. "President An seems to be very knowledgeable about these traditional crafts as well?"
An Jingsheng's gaze fell on a piece of Lacquerware in the distance, and his tone suddenly became deep. "When I was venturing out in Great Goose Country in my youth, what I missed most were these things from home. Now that I have the ability, I always want to do something for them."
