Chapter 46: Chapter 46: It’s Different After Sleeping Together

Gao Yuan saw a strange look flash in Lin Wanyu’s eyes and quickly pulled her into his arms. ’A jealous woman is a terrifying thing.’

"What other girls are there!"

"You know my dad is in the pharmaceutical industry. Our family bought a patent for a set of skincare products a while back."

"I’ve had some free time recently, so I thought I’d try starting my own business."

Gao Yuan gave Lin Wanyu a rough explanation of why he was suddenly interested in skincare, hoping to prevent his little jealous girl from going on a rampage during her period.

"Is your father really in the pharmaceutical industry?"

Lin Wanyu asked, a hint of doubt on her face.

Gao Yuan understood immediately. She probably thought what he’d said when he met her parents was just to get their approval.

"You could say it’s the pharmaceutical industry. Their company’s main business is breeding research monkeys for major domestic labs and pharmaceutical companies, so they get to meet a lot of researchers."

"That skincare patent was something a researcher came up with in his spare time, and my dad bought it privately."

After Gao Yuan’s thorough explanation, Lin Wanyu could only nod obediently.

"So, are you going to create your own skincare brand?"

Understanding all this, Lin Wanyu looked at Gao Yuan thoughtfully.

"I have the idea, but I’m not sure how feasible it is."

"What’s not feasible about it? I’ll take you to see the old man tomorrow. It’s not a big deal."

Lin Wanyu immediately promised to handle everything.

In her eyes, it didn’t matter whether Gao Yuan had a secret formula or not. How many skincare companies these days actually make money from so-called "secret formulas"?

Whatever product Gao Yuan wanted to make, she could have her family’s company produce it for him.

The Lin Group had been in the skincare industry for so many years that it had long since established its own contract manufacturing system.

From research and quality inspection to finished products, the entire process was an assembly line.

However,

Companies with established brand recognition usually provided their own semi-finished materials containing proprietary technology. Trying to match the quality of these major brands would still be somewhat difficult.

The two of them chatted for a while.

Lin Wanyu went straight to the group chat and @’d Li Mengqing: "Sister Qing, Gao Yuan is going to make skincare products! From now on, he can take care of all our skincare needs."

"Really?"

Gao Yuan also replied in the group chat: "It’s true. I’m planning to make a real business out of it."

"Would you two dare to use it?"

He added another message to the group, wanting to see how the two women would react.

"Tch!"

Lin Wanyu sent a scornful emoji.

’After all that talk, if Gao Yuan is going to make skincare products and doesn’t have them contract-manufactured at her family’s factory, she could drain him completely dry.’

’And if it’s a product made by her family’s factory, why wouldn’t she dare to use it?’

’It’s not like her old man would try to harm her.’

Gao Yuan’s thoughts, however, were completely different. He had absolute, unconditional faith in the products from the system.

He had just looked over the information on this secret skincare formula.

This secret formula included not only basic skincare products but also functional ones.

The basic skincare products included cleanser, toner, eye cream, serum, lotion, face cream, sunscreen, primer, and masks.

The functional skincare products were divided into several categories, including cleansing, moisturizing, and soothing.

Most importantly, this set of documents even included both domestic and international patents.

This saved Gao Yuan a lot of trouble. All he needed now was a trademark.

Thinking of the trademark issue, Gao Yuan went on WeChat and found the trademark agency he had worked with before.

When naming skincare products, people usually chose something a bit more Western-sounding, sometimes even leaning toward the names of famous foreign brands.

But Gao Yuan didn’t think that way. He was very clear about the efficacy of the skincare products from the system.

With such effectiveness, word-of-mouth and the repurchase rate would be absolutely top-notch.

In that case, the name wasn’t that important, as long as it wasn’t awful.

"Help me check if the name ’GY’ can be registered as a trademark across all categories."

The name "GY" was an acronym for Gao Yuan’s initials.

The trademark agent, He Lang, had worked with Gao Yuan many times before, so he skipped the pleasantries and immediately started searching for him in their backend system.

A short while later, He Lang sent Gao Yuan the results.

Judging from the screenshot He Lang sent, the name "GY" was currently available for registration in all trademark categories.

Gao Yuan wanted to register all the categories so that he could use the same brand for other business ventures in the future and also funnel customers from those ventures.

"Register everything that’s available. And I want expedited, guaranteed registration for all of them!"

When He Lang saw Gao Yuan’s message, he was absolutely ecstatic.

The name "GY" could be registered for at least 45 trademarks.

Guaranteed registration was 1,500 each. Forty-five of them would be over 60,000. This was a huge order; his sales quota for the month would be easily surpassed.

So, he immediately applied to his boss for a discount and gave Gao Yuan 20% off for the 45 trademarks.

After arranging the trademark registration, just as Gao Yuan was starting to design the logo, Lin Wanyu brought him good news.

Tomorrow at four in the afternoon, her old man would be waiting for them in his office.

All Gao Yuan had to do was bring the skincare formula and patents. As for the subsequent production process, that was a minor detail.

After lunch, Gao Yuan slightly modified the logo design and sent it to the group chat. He received high praise from both women; they both thought his design was simple yet had a high-end feel, perfect for skincare products.

He sent the design directly to He Lang, telling him to include the image with the registration.

Having done all this, Gao Yuan lit a cigarette and thought about what else he needed to prepare.

He felt like something was missing, but he couldn’t quite put his finger on it at the moment.

"Honey, I think you also need to register a company. You need a corporate license to make skincare products."

Lin Wanyu whispered in his ear, leaning against his shoulder.

With Lin Wanyu’s reminder, Gao Yuan knew what he had been missing.

But registering a company in Hang City wasn’t difficult. He Lang’s agency also offered this service. It was very cheap—only two thousand yuan—and they would handle the business registration, tax filing, and even the official company seal.

All Gao Yuan would have to do was show up and sign some papers.

When He Lang asked about the registered capital, Gao Yuan posted directly in the group chat: "I’m preparing to start a skincare company, beginning my entrepreneurial journey."

Lin Wanyu didn’t say anything, but Li Mengqing was the first to speak up: "Are you short on cash? I can help, as long as it’s under a million!"

Seeing Li Mengqing’s message, Lin Wanyu pouted.

’She knew her best friend quite well. She knew Li Mengqing was good at making money, but she also spent a lot. Her savings probably amounted to a few hundred thousand at most.’

’To think she was willing to be so generous just as Gao Yuan was about to start his business!’

’As expected, it’s different once you’ve slept with him.’
