Chapter 1203: Chapter 1203 She Wants to Target Me
People within the industry like Zhou Yan had known the news for some time, and the fact that Su Wen, as the owner of the Su family, didn’t know, indicated a significant problem.
It must have been Song Zishan who deliberately concealed it. The New Year special issue is the most important issue of the year and is also a crucial element in Su Wen’s influence plan. Song Zishan had unilaterally pulled the Su family’s advertising and promotional materials, including the photos and copy that had already been prepared.
As a result, the Su family’s New Year campaign couldn’t keep up and was powerless to follow through, leading to immeasurable losses. But seeing Song Zishan’s rogue att.i.tude, it was certain she wouldn’t compensate. The key was that no matter how much she compensated, it couldn’t make up for the brand damage the Su family suffered.
Su Wen was clear about these tricks of the trade, and Zhou Yan, who spent every day with Su Wen, was also well aware of them due to constant exposure.
Chief Editor Xia was a professional and clearly understood the intentions behind Song Zishan’s moves.
That’s why Chief Editor Xia had come to visit today.
Su Wen understood immediately but was still surprised, “Chief Editor Xia, did you sell Fas.h.i.+on Pa.s.sion? Or sold it to Song Zishan?”
Chief Editor Xia gave a bitter smile, “Not long after you appeared on our magazine cover, negotiations began. It was a back-and-forth for over a month before it was finally sold. On the day your store opened, Song Zishan officially took over.”
“I had no idea at all.” Su Wen quickly reflected on herself and decided to instruct Fang Shuai to ensure that industry news must be reported at the earliest opportunity in the future.
Such a delay in information was extremely fatal.
“It’s not surprising you didn’t know, mainly because I didn’t tell you. The negotiations were always conducted in secret, and once the handover was done, I remained in my position. The people in charge initially were very respectful of us and promised that all collaborations would proceed as usual, without any changes.”
At this point, Chief Editor Xia self-deprecatingly tugged at the corner of her mouth, “I was too soft-hearted, and I lacked the ability to turn the magazine I worked so hard for over to someone else.” And I was brushed off like a beggar, placated with a little money.
Had she not been so upset and felt so stifled inside, she wouldn’t have sought cooperation with Zhou Yan.
This incident made Chief Editor Xia fully realize that entrepreneurs.h.i.+p and doing business require not only skills, foresight, and capability, but also strong backing. Without it, you are nothing in the eyes of some people.
They take whatever they want, whenever they want.
Of all the people she knew, Zhou Yan and Su Wen’s husband had the strongest backing. It was a pity she hadn’t previously considered that she might one day be in such a predicament; she hadn’t proactively fostered a good relations.h.i.+p with Zhou Yan to owe her a favor.
She could have had Su Wen owe her a favor, but that opportunity was ruined due to her own pride.
Su Wen understood everything perfectly well; she had already seen through Song Zishan’s tactics. Just like before in the Capital, forcefully making all bookstores remove her books was no different from the same old tactic of pressuring Chief Editor Xia to sell the magazine agency to her.
To say it was a sale was no different from saying it was a robbery.
Although taking over Fas.h.i.+on Pa.s.sion had nothing to do with her, Su Wen, Song Zishan’s manipulation of Fas.h.i.+on Pa.s.sion to scheme against the Su family and hinder her marketing strategy was absolutely unacceptable.
Thinking this, Su Wen’s hands, which were resting on the arm of the sofa, suddenly clenched, and a trace of cold light flashed in her eyes.
“She wants to target me.”
Only then did Chief Editor Xia secretly breathe a sigh of relief. Before coming here, she was afraid Su Wen would be unwilling to get involved in this mess. If she hadn’t been completely blacklisted by Song Zishan and blocked from even becoming a regular editor at the newspaper, she wouldn’t have taken this step.
