Chapter 126 Bearing the Cost

The time was ten o'clock in the morning.

Those who had come to attend the new product launch conference had all arrived, but there were not enough seats.

Su Nianxue hadn't expected so many people to come, especially the dozens of reporters who had filled the venue, with the surroundings already packed.

"Immediately arrange for people to add more seats."

"At the very least, we cannot let our guests feel that our reception is inadequate."

Just then, Mu Feng stopped her. "There's no need for such trouble. It's about to begin, and they are even more eager to see what our pharmaceutical products will be like."

"As for whether there are seats, they know it themselves. Many of them were not even invited by us."

"Those who were invited have already taken their seats."

Su Nianxue glanced over and noticed the problem. After a slight hesitation, she chose to believe Tiancheng Mu Feng.

"Brother Feng, I'll go host first. This new product launch conference is the beginning of our company's leap forward."

Her heart was filled with confidence.

She believed that with this product, her company's development would surely flourish.

The audience below was already impatient.

"President Su, you've finally appeared. If we wait any longer, the daylilies will wilt."

"We came today specifically for your new product launch. The news you've spread has kept us, your peers in the skincare industry, on tenterhooks."

"We just don't know if President Su can showcase the powerful skincare effects today."

The speakers were mostly people standing around.

And they were all personnel from various skincare companies.

These people's purpose for being here was simple: to scout the situation.

When that news first spread, many people found it hard to believe, as such skincare products seemed like legends to them.

Su Nianxue revealed an elegant smile. "I know everyone has been anticipating this day for a long time. Today, we will present our company's latest developed skincare products, and we will also invite everyone present to help verify them."

"If anyone wishes to try it personally, they can come onto the stage. We welcome everyone."

"However, only ten people will be allowed to ensure we don't waste too much time."

The crowd immediately stood up, no one able to sit still.

Their eyes were filled with deep suspicion.

"President Su, can your skincare products truly achieve the effects you claim?"

"If there are such effects, what would be the cost of your skincare products?"

Everyone kept asking questions.

Su Nianxue smiled. "We didn't release any official news beforehand, but you must have learned some through various channels. So, I won't hide it. As for the specific effects, please witness them yourselves."

"Now, we will randomly select ten people."

Just as she was about to continue, a voice suddenly rang out from the audience.

"You can't randomly select them. Who knows if those ten people are plants you've arranged?"

"We should be the ones to select. We are all peers, and we don't want to see your skincare products develop. Our selection will be more fair."

As he said this, everyone made way for a young man, who walked over with a faint smile on his face.

"Who are you?"

Su Nianxue did not recognize him.

The young man walked onto the stage, turned, bowed slightly to the assembled crowd, a proud expression on his face.

"You can call me Li Yongchao. I believe no further introduction is necessary, right?"

When the crowd heard the name, there was an uproar.

They all knew Yongchao Pharmaceutical Company.

That company had always acted arrogantly, and behind it stood an even more powerful group. Although few knew who the people behind it were, Yongchao Pharmaceutical Company alone occupied a top-three position in the neighboring city.

They were financially well-off and always ruthless in their dealings.

The top figures in the business world understood each other. They had long heard of this Li Yongchao.

As all eyes turned towards him, Li Yongchao smiled. "I believe no one will object if I select the people?"

Upon hearing this, the people present exchanged glances. No one dared to step forward.

Li Yongchao laughed heartily. "Since no one objects, I will make the selection. Conveniently, I have brought some people with me. Let them try this skincare product."

He beckoned, and the bodyguards who had accompanied him walked onto the stage.

"Those skincare products don't have a very noticeable effect on women. After all, women's skin is naturally delicate. But for men, the effect should be more pronounced. My subordinates here don't have very good skin. Your skincare products are advertised so powerfully."

"Shouldn't you demonstrate it for us now?"

Hearing this, Su Nianxue's eyebrows furrowed slightly. "Mr. Li, I hope you will step down immediately. Most of our skincare products are designed for women."

"You are just making excuses. If it doesn't work, it doesn't work. Creating some fake product would be deceiving consumers!" httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět

As Li Yongchao spoke, he directly addressed the surrounding media reporters. "You must capture this incident clearly. It's not the first time their company has used dirty tricks. Make sure to report the matter perfectly, do you understand?"

Su Nianxue, being exceptionally intelligent, knew from these words that Li Yongchao must have made prior arrangements. A hint of anger appeared in her eyes.

"Mr. Li, malicious defamation also has a price to pay."

Hearing this, Li Yongchao responded with a laugh. "A price?"

"Your small, broken company dares to tell me to pay a price? How audacious!"

"I am merely speaking the truth. I haven't slandered you in any way."

"You are holding a new product launch, and I've brought a few people for you to test the effects of the new product. This is like a dog biting Lu Dongbin, unappreciative of good intentions."

"You should be grateful that this isn't happening in the neighboring city, otherwise, an industry like yours would not be able to exist. At least I wouldn't let you exist."

As he said the last sentence, a sinister smile appeared on Li Yongchao's face. He then lowered his voice and said coldly, "Su Nianxue, we could have cooperated on this matter. But why did you have to choose to help Mu Feng!"

"Since you've already made your choice, you must bear the consequences!"

As he said these words, he still wore that triumphant smile.
