One of the stakeholders asked, "What do you mean by a drama?"

"Well I just recently got to uncover my cousin-in-law's hidden talent! Even though he might seem like a rebellious teenager, he is quite an artist," her eyes sparkled.

Jiang Fai's cheeks turned extremely red. Suddenly, he was the center of attention.

Lihua took out a folder and spread all his drawings and paintings on the table. They were beautiful pictures of people - man or woman standing in different poses that went well with the background.

The Jiang family was quite surprised to see this level of professional art from Jiang Fai.

"I must say that Jiang Fai is talented, but how will it help in the proposal? How is it going to help us?"

"Glad that you asked! Our proposal is to have Fai Fai draw a comic. The setting will be our hotel. There will our lead characters who will meet there where their beautiful story will unfold. The mai focus will be our venue and how the story will take place. Once the hotel blueprint will be ready, Fai Fai will draw the actual layout of the hotel in the background where people will actually see how amazing our hotel is from the inside. Fai Fai is really good in drawing intrinsic details. It will be a short story but a good story that will take everybody's breath away. This will be a unique way to make our hotels known to everyone."

There was a long beat of silence. Everybody, literally, everybody looked at her in a daze. Their shocked expression was all too visible and evident. In the whole history of doing business in Jiang Industries, nobody had ever thought of such a... different idea.

They couldn't exactly pinpoint what they should really feel about this. Her proposal was way different than Ruomei's sophisticated one.

Ruomei had an urge to laugh, but she held it in.

"Lixue, is this the proposal you came up with? Do you know how... childish this is? A comic for such a big proposal like this?"

"Why not?" She innocently asked.

"Lixue, this is not some playground where you are telling stories to children."

Some of the stakeholders couldn't help but agree with her.

"I agree with Miss Shi."

"Indeed. A comic? A story? Seems…" he left it unsaid.

Ruomei inwardly sneered.

Lihua said, "But everybody likes stories! Everybody likes entertainment. And this is something different too. We have always gone ahead with the usual boring methods like how we always did before. But change is a part of life. It will be so refreshing to know more about our hotel through a medium such as a story. A story emotionally connects all which is a great way to make them feel connected in turn. They won't ever forget about it, trust me.

The promotion methods and advertising that you listed in your presentation is good and it will work. But it's not enough to leave a mark on anybody. It should be something that people should vividly remember. Drawings, songs, music, paintings, art does just that. Even our reputation will increase once people know that we are not afraid to take a different approach. Don't you think that considering all these years, people would be more or less expecting what we will do? So this is a chance to prove them wrong!"

There was again a beat of silence.

Lihua continued. "I am a hundred percent sure that Fai Fai will do an awesome job. You saw his paintings. With his help, Jiang Industries can reach even a greater height."

Jiang Fai's ears turned red.

After a pause, a voice came, "Interesting…"

Ruomei shuffled in her seat and looked back. It was Jiang Weizhe who spoke. Lihua brightened. "Do you like it?"

He tilted his head. "I don't know how it will turn out, but it seems promising," he quietly said.

Ruomei was stunned.

How can this childish idea be promising?

But even after his agreement, the others didn't seem as convinced.

Ruomei voiced it out. "I think everybody understands that there is no merit to this idea. Jiang Industries is a reputable and prestigious company. We cannot involve ourselves in creating stories."

Jiang Weizhe pursed his lips.

Jiang Fai turned pale and couldn't help but feel embarrassed. He didn't know why Lihua thought that this idea would work. But he already had a fair idea that the grownups in the office would never approve of such a method.

It wasn't traditional.

Lihua silently squeezed his hand and gave him a reassuring nod.

She faced the audience again and said, "How can you be so sure that it won't work? In fact I guarantee that this will work even better than Shi Ruomei's plan."

Ruomei widened her eyes. She wanted to laugh at her confidence.

Just what makes you think that?

As expected, most of the stakeholders were in Ruomei's favor. Their whispers were loud and clear. But they were waiting for Wei's judgement. Even Fu Renshu didn't know what to think about this proposal.

Everybody's eyes were on Wei. They were curious about his decision.

Now there was Jiang Wei who sat at the main CEO seat at the other side of the conference table, oozing out his regal aura. There were a few points to consider when one thought about him.

He was a Mafia King with a zero EQ.

He was a man who didn't understand cues, so he didn't understand everyone's general favorability towards Ruomei.

He was an extremely doting husband who, at any cost, would always stand with his wife.

And right now, that extremely doting husband wanted nothing else but to spend cuddly time with his wife in his office.

So all in all, this meeting was just a bother to him which he wanted to end as soon as possible.

"I agree with Lixue. We will go ahead with her plan. Meeting adjourned."

There came his hammer of judgement, leaving everybody speechless and shocked to the core.

Ruomei stumbled in her seat, while Lihua, who, even though had the decision in her favor, choked in her throat.

What!?
