Chapter 1154 As you wish
The "shadow patriarch" of the Jiang family is much more difficult to deal with than the one in the open.
"Haha," Situ Zhen laughed, "Brother Jiang has a sharp eye and considers everything."
He flattered him with his mouth, but he was thinking quickly in his mind: Jiang Xiaochuan had better be bluffing, so that he can take the opportunity to do him a favor.
Besides, he couldn't stand Hinakawa Okazaka's behavior of suppressing local companies.
He was more than happy to take advantage of the opportunity to help Jiang Xiaochuan and give the Japanese a legitimate reason to cause trouble.
"Brother Situ,"
Jiang Zhenyue still stared straight ahead, his tone calm but with a warning, "This kid's background is not simple, and the waters are very deep. In my opinion, it's best not to provoke him."
"Brother Jiang is right."
Situ Zhen agreed casually, but he disagreed in his heart.
The mysterious "ghost power" of Jiang Xiaochuan is exactly the power that his Situ family needs most at the moment.
If he could subdue this boy and use him for the Situ family, even if it meant completely breaking off relations with Hikawa Okazaka and even the Huangfu family behind him...what would it matter?
This deal is a good deal no matter how you look at it!
Hinakawa Okasaka naturally understood the principle that more haste makes waste.
He secretly thought that Jiang Xiaochuan must be afraid that he would cheat in secret, so he was reluctant to go on stage.
In this situation, the more eager you are to achieve success, the more likely you are to give the other party a handle.
So he turned his gaze to the audience again.
After some observation, he felt more and more that these people were extremely easy to manipulate.
"Gentlemen, please listen to me. Honestly, as someone who has worked in the cosmetics industry for decades, deep down, I'm eagerly anticipating the birth of a truly revolutionary product more than anyone else."
Hikawa Okasaka opened his arms in a hugging gesture. "To achieve this goal, we at Yalan International invest billions in research and development every year."
"Even so, the best results we've achieved so far pale in comparison to the results demonstrated by Mr. Jiang's scar cream."
The meaning of this smear-like self-exposure is obvious: he has invested so much but has achieved very little.
Jiang Xiaochuan is so young and has only been involved in the cosmetics industry for a short time. How could he achieve such results so easily? It really goes against common sense.
"Such a disparity is truly shocking. Therefore, I had no choice but to take this liberty and invite Miss Chu to the stage. My only purpose is to verify her authenticity!"
"This product is truly amazing. I, Hikawa Okasaka, will definitely be the first to applaud them!"
"Because this is not only their success, but also a major breakthrough for the entire industry, and it is the gospel that countless consumers have been eagerly waiting for!"
His voice suddenly paused, his expression darkening: "But——!"
"If all this is a scam, a trap set by someone! Then I, Rikawa Okasaka, swear in the name of Yalan International that I will never tolerate this industry cancer continuing to deceive consumers!"
These words sounded high-sounding, and coupled with his exaggerated expression, they perfectly portrayed the hypocrisy.
Jiang Xiaochuan almost laughed out loud when he saw Hikawa Okazaka performing hard in his broken Chinese.
However, it's not enough to just let this guy perform on his own.
He has always insisted on "sharing the spoils equally". Speaking of which, the other giants have a relatively large share of the global cosmetics market.
It is impossible to stay out of trouble alone.
Glancing calmly at the other giants in the audience, Jiang Xiaochuan slowly asked, "Do you all share the same sentiment? Do you think we must undergo the test of this potion of unknown origin?"
Tanaka could no longer contain himself and was eager to make his mark in front of the global media.
In this almost one-sided situation, the limelight cannot be monopolized by Hinakawa Okazaka alone.
"Mr. Jiang, don't delay any longer."
Tanaka's tone seemed restrained, but his stance was clear. "With such an astonishing effect, it's only natural to subject it to public scrutiny."
Pierre then stood up and echoed in French-accented English, "A truly good product is never afraid of testing. Transparency is the foundation of trust. What do you think, Mr. Jiang?"
"Mr. Jiang, please let Miss Chu come up to the stage for examination. This is responsible for everyone!"
Samantha also expressed her opinion with a cold face.
Jiang Xiaochuan raised the corner of his mouth, revealing a half-smile: "You all are so united... Can I assume that you and Mr. Richuan have colluded long ago?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of several people changed suddenly.
At this critical juncture, Jiang Xiaochuan suddenly brought up this sensitive topic, which was beyond their expectations.
But in front of everyone, it was difficult to deny it, so he had to acquiesce.
With the successive statements from the giants, the calls for "must be tested" on the scene were suddenly pushed to a new climax.
“Try it now!”
"Chu Nanyan! Go up!"
"Are you afraid anymore?!"
The urging and questioning voices came like a tide, one wave higher than the other.
Although Chu Nanyue is quite well-known, the public's tolerance for artists, especially stars involved in controversies, is often surprisingly low.
This phenomenon was fully demonstrated in Chu Nanyue at this moment.
Coupled with the instigation of Hikawa Okazaka, many audience members were eager to see Chu Nanyue make a fool of herself.
On the contrary, some foreign friends were much calmer and looked like they were enjoying the show.
But even amidst such a wave of noise, some different voices still emerged stubbornly:
"I did! I really did!"
A young girl, ignoring the looks of others, excitedly rolled up her sleeves, revealing the scar on her arm, which was only a faint pink mark. "Look! This is painted!"
"We all follow the live broadcast! It's different every day! How could it be fake?!"
"Yan Yan! Prove it to them!"
Although these voices were not loud, they were real and carried a sense of indignation and unwillingness to accept.
The entire venue was like a huge pressure cooker - and all the pressure, at this moment, was firmly on Chu Nanyan alone.
"Ms. Chu, audiences around the world are waiting for an answer. Please don't disappoint those who trust you, and don't... bring shame upon your country. Please?"
Hinakawa Okazaka added the final fuel to the fire.
At this moment, Jiang Xiaochuan turned his head slightly and gave him a look.
With just one glance, all the anxiety and uneasiness in Chu Nanyue's heart suddenly calmed down.
She knew Jiang Xiaochuan's thoughts clearly, and this last step needed her to complete.
Chu Nanyue took a deep breath, and her face glowed again.
Under the gazes of countless people, he stood up gracefully.
The global live broadcast camera followed her closely, and the huge circular screen was full of her perfect close-ups.
At this moment, countless eyes around the world are focused here.
