As soon as Jiro Kobayashi heard his assistant say that, he couldn't help taking it seriously.

He frowned and said, "I know who this Gu Qiuyi is. She's a very beautiful woman, and a damn good actress too. I never thought she'd end up endorsing our competitor."

After a pause, he added, "How about this—you get in touch with her management company and ask how much she'd want to endorse our Kobayashi's stomach powder!"

The assistant nodded. "I'll contact her agency first thing tomorrow morning."
