Chapter 193: Chapter 186: Public Opinion Sniper! The Situation is Grave!

The meeting officially began, and everyone’s attention was focused.

Bai Yan’s words captured everyone’s attention. The normally domineering Goddess Li now seemed like a personal secretary, only attending to Bai Yan’s needs for water and an ashtray; her actions and expressions were exceedingly gentle. Li Xiaoman had none of her usual businesswoman aura at this moment.

This led a group of single men from Wanyan Company to inwardly lament, "It’s over, our goddess has completely fallen into the hands of the CEO."

However, everyone also recalled everything from the founding of Wanyan Company to the present, whether it was the strong financial network or the products, probably all had deep links with this mysterious CEO. Compared to Li Xiaoman, he was indeed the true soul of Wanyan Company.

"Actually, calling everyone here today amidst your busy schedules is not for anything major, but mainly to have everyone sign a new contract, Wanyan Company’s confidentiality contract."

Bai Yan said with a smile, fully utilizing the Demon Lord’s seductive charm and talent for deception as he faced the puzzled expressions of the audience.

"The confidentiality contract, as the name implies, surely doesn’t require too much explanation from me."

"As everyone knows, the product launch is imminent, and Wanyan Company’s aggressive marketing has angered some leading industry competitors. At this critical time, Wanyan Company can only rely on its pharmaceutical products’ advantages to win."

"But to ensure the product’s advantage and secrecy, that is why we are having everyone sign this contract; it’s a necessary measure, and I hope everyone understands."

"Of course, this confidentiality contract is not something for everyone to sign without any compensation."

"Sign this contract, and each person will receive a one million hush money!"

Bai Yan, with a smile, picked up a contract, his tone laced with temptation.

Li Xiaoman’s secretary had earlier brought in a thick stack of documents which were the printed contracts. By the time Bai Yan arrived, he had already imbued these contracts with demonic pact powers.

The so-called confidentiality contract was in fact a contract for the senior management of Wanyan Company to become Demon Servants of Bai Yan.

Such a demon pact would not cause any harm to ordinary people, and unless Bai Yan conferred upon them the power of Demon Warriors, it would not enhance their abilities. This was merely a measure Bai Yan took to ensure Li Xiaoman’s absolute control over Wanyan Company.

Many things require precautionary measures; nothing is more important than having a group of loyal servants!

As long as the Wanyan executives present signed this pact, even if business wars or corporate espionage were to occur in the future, Wanyan Company would have nothing to fear.

Bai Yan came here today to firmly seize control of Wanyan Company in his hands; he would not allow any traitors to emerge within Wanyan Company’s ranks in the future!

He was to become the absolute king of Wanyan Company!

"Sign, get the money; don’t sign, take your salary and get out!"

Bai Yan said with a smile, looking at everyone: "The choice is in your hands, I won’t force anyone."

Bai Yan leaned casually against the boss’s desk, lighting another cigarette, his expression serene, revealing none of his inner thoughts.

Bai Yan had already transformed his demonic form into that of a young Demon Witch, maximizing his charm and leadership capabilities. Moreover, as a Demon Lord with a wicked talent for manipulation, seducing these mere dozens of humans was no challenge.

Li Xiaoman’s secretary began distributing the contracts, with a sheet of paper and a pen placed in front of each person. After doing so, while others were still hesitating, this young secretary was the first to sign, drawing a few more glances from Bai Yan.

Such a sensible girl who knows how to lead the rhythm must be rewarded with an extra million by Xiao Man!

As expected, with someone taking the lead in signing, the rest began to write. This included the head of the finance department, who also signed upon return.

A million just to sign a confidentiality contract, only a fool wouldn’t sign!

Everyone has been in the business world, who hasn’t signed a few confidentiality contracts before?

However, it was only after signing the contract that they learned all about the Demon Servant and the demon pact, but by then it would be too late to regret, not that they would want to.

After all, once becoming a Demon Servant of Bai Yan, their lives were entirely in Bai Yan’s hands, and the loyalty of a Demon Servant was beyond question.

Ten minutes later, everyone had signed the demon pact, and the number of Bai Yan’s Demon Servants had gradually reached 68/100.

Bai Yan nodded in satisfaction and snapped his fingers.

"Snap!"

The contracts in front of everyone turned into black ashes, spiraling and disappearing in the conference room, an eerie and mysterious scene.

"Well then, excellent! Now that we’re all on the same team, the next steps will be easy. The product launch will proceed as scheduled, and everyone must obey Li Xiaoman’s orders; her words are my words!"

"Your salaries will be paid as usual, and your lives can continue as normal; just don’t give yourselves away now, I’d rather not let certain people know my identity just yet."

Bai Yan’s gaze sternly swept over the audience in the conference room.

At this moment, everyone stood up and respectfully lowered their heads, saying, "Yes, Master!"

Bai Yan smiled and got up, "Alright, I’ll be leaving now."

"Please take care, Master!"

Everyone shouted in unison, their expressions respectful to the utmost. The demon contract had completely changed these people’s minds.

The demon contracts they signed are ones that forcibly alter the minds of ordinary people. Much more domineering than the one Li Xiaoman initially signed, they are fundamentally different in nature from Li Xiaoman’s demon contract.

Theoretically speaking, Li Xiaoman’s demon contract is of the highest rank, much higher than theirs.

Although Li Xiaoman was reluctant to part, Bai Yan still left the company. Li Xiaoman only managed to give her beloved man a light kiss, filled with apologies. After all, she had too much to deal with and could not stay with him properly.

Over the following days, the hot topics on the internet were successfully dominated by Wanyan Company’s press conference.

For a time, centered around HZ city, most netizens and citizens across the country were paying attention to this new pharmaceutical company.

According to calculations by some people with vested interests, Wanyan Company had invested nearly a billion in advertising expenses in the early stages. The momentum created was unprecedentedly powerful, and it was no exaggeration to say it was the center of public attention!

However, just at this time, a new rumor emerged on the internet and among HZ city folks. Under the targeting of rival companies, a wave of skepticism about Wanyan Company began to be induced.

Both the public and the netizens started to question this fledgling pharmaceutical company.

One must know that in Hua Xia, medical quality and drug distribution have always had flaws, and it is difficult for ordinary people to trust a new pharmaceutical company. They are more inclined to trust big-brand companies.

With manipulative people stirring the pot, waves of questioning appeared online. In the face of these questions, Wanyan Company showed no sign of weakness, even announcing parts of their drug effects ahead of schedule.

"Wanyan Company will reveal three new types of drugs at the product launch. The first will treat the majority of terminal illnesses in humans, the second will be suitable for human emergency cases, flu, and other troublesome recurrent diseases, and the third can be used for the prevention of all animal diseases."

This announcement exploded and thoroughly enraged the already fragile online community. No need for trolls to guide the narrative, netizens began expressing stronger anger and skepticism.

"A drug that can cure terminal illnesses? What an international joke! Has this so-called Wanyan Company gone mad with greed? How can they make such outlandish claims?"

"Tsk, I have truly witnessed what it means to be shamelessly invincible. Wanyan Company is really going all out for cash!"

"I heard the manager at Wanyan Company is a woman? Truly the most poisonous woman’s heart! A pharmaceutical company, yet uttering such irresponsible words! One fake drug can kill so many people, does she know!!!"

"Pff, I’m laughing my head off here. Three types of drugs, covering almost 90% of the diseases on the entire planet, what a grand claim! I really want to see how this Wanyan Company will wrap up at the end!"

An overwhelming storm of skepticism was brewing madly online, ready to erupt!

"Refuse fake drugs! Topple unscrupulous merchants; return us patients a clear sky!"

"Please value life, all of humanity, stay away from Wanyan Company products, take good care of your pets at home, and do not accept the so-called miraculous drugs from unscrupulous merchants for treating pet diseases!"

"If a scam company like Wanyan Company can enter the pharmaceutical market, then I’d rather die ill in this lifetime than take any drugs! I’d rather die to let the relevant departments know, you can’t condone these unscrupulous blowhards!"

"I’ll just say one thing, my grandfather didn’t have to die three years ago, but the unscrupulous fake drugs exacerbated his illness, taking his life prematurely! In my life, I hate fake drugs the most! I typed this out crying, I really hate fake drugs! I miss my grandfather!"

"F*ck, I’ve never cursed anyone in my life, but today I really can’t take it anymore! Haven’t there been enough deaths due to fake drugs over the years? This Wanyan Company’s aggressive promotion, is it just for promoting what’s obviously three kinds of bogus drugs? This cannot be tolerated!"

"Right! Absolutely intolerable, expose Wanyan Company! Boycott Wanyan Company!"

Over the years, the public’s various grievances, dissatisfactions, and misunderstandings about the medical industry, led by manipulative people, have all been vented towards Wanyan Company.

Wanyan Company, like a flawed vessel, bore the brunt of the netizens’ towering fury for past fake drugs and unscrupulous companies! Everyone was convinced that Wanyan Company’s drugs were certainly fake, not even allowing Wanyan Company the chance to defend itself!

Everyone! Every netizen! As long as they heard the name Wanyan Company or searched for it online, they were met with a landslide of negative media reports!

The language in these reports was vehement, the wording venomous! As if Wanyan Company was the epitome of villainy, as if Wanyan Company was the cause of death for countless people, as if Wanyan Company represented all unscrupulous pharmaceutical companies!

When Li Xiaoman received the news, she immediately struck back, but this was an intentional commercial public opinion war. Behind it were dozens of industry competitors jointly targeting the strong, rising new company Wanyan, including not just the leading companies, but also foreign enterprises participating.

No one wanted Wanyan to share the big pie of the pharmaceutical industry. The complex nature of the business world was far beyond what Li Xiaoman had anticipated; all pharmaceutical companies tacitly targeted Wanyan Company.

With Li Xiaoman fighting single-handedly, she could hardly withstand the overwhelming negative news, and public opinion had completely turned one-sided!

The situation at Wanyan Company was extremely serious!

Even under immense public pressure, the relevant authorities had already started to intensively scrutinize Wanyan Company. If it hadn’t been for Mayor Chen forcefully holding back, Wanyan Company would have been ordered to cease drug production before even having the chance to hold a press conference!

At this point, no one was willing to believe what Wanyan Company said. Faced with various online queries and angry voices from locals, Wanyan Company could not provide an effective defense. Li Xiaoman could only continue to grit her teeth under the pressure and proceed with the plan to prepare for the product launch.

All the pharmaceutical companies were waiting to see Wanyan Company’s downfall!
