Chapter 194: Chapter 187: The Well-Prepared Journalist
On the day of the Wanyan Company’s product launch, the sky was gloomy, blanketed with dark clouds. It seemed that even the heavens were unwilling to smile upon the event, stingy with even a sliver of sunlight.
Inside the Mijing Technology Exhibition Hall, Wanyan Company had spent a fortune renting the venue to ensure the product launch could proceed normally.
The exhibition hall could accommodate ten thousand people, and it was jam-packed and noisy with mostly reporters and media who traveled from afar. They came today for two reasons: one was the invitation, and the other was various special purposes.
They were there to witness if Wanyan Company’s drugs were genuinely miraculous as claimed or if they were the fakes rumored by the outside world.
Bai Yan was also present today. Although he did not wish to be in the spotlight, he had to come to support Li Xiaoman.
Bai Yan blended into the crowd, wearing an earpiece connected to the entire launch event.
Should any uncontrollable situation arise at the launch, Bai Yan would take full command.
Chewing gum, Bai Yan sat casually, surrounded by many people discussing in low voices about the content of Wanyan Company’s product launch.
"Have you heard? Right now, many people are pointing their fingers at Wanyan Company."
"I know, the whole internet is talking about Wanyan Company, saying this new pharmaceutical company is so arrogant. They started advertising before even producing the drugs, it’s clearly an unethical company!"
"Sigh, what’s happening these days? Can’t there be a truly conscientious pharmaceutical company? Why do all companies only care about money?"
"We can’t do much about that; I’m here because my editor demanded it. I’m considering whether I can bring back any big news from this!"
"Big news? The biggest news would be Wanyan Company selling fakes!"
"However, speaking of fakes, I think there’s something strange going on. Have you heard? Recently, the negative news about Wanyan Company online is targeted by several leading enterprises. Tsk tsk, poor Wanyan Company, becoming the scapegoat for netizens."
"Shh~, don’t talk nonsense. We just need to do our jobs."
This time, HZ City’s television station was also heavily invited to the scene by Wanyan Company, with local broadcasting and online live streaming of the product launch.
Facing the multitude of doubts and unilaterally negative news from the outside world, Wanyan Company resolutely went ahead with the product launch as planned, which surprised many people.
Wanyan Company really had guts! Under such circumstances, they still chose to hold their product launch!
Sitting below the stage, Bai Yan chewed his gum, blowing a large bubble, as no one noticed the cold smirk at the corner of the young man’s mouth.
Leading enterprises collaborating on a hit? Heh!
Dare to block my financial path, interrupt my Demon cultivation plan, then don’t blame me for being unkind.
Bai Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, a hint of cold light flashing within.
Cultivating a horde of Demons to constantly strengthen himself and seize the power of absolute freedom was always Bai Yan’s pursuit.
And undoubtedly, cultivating Demons required a lot of financial support and life forms, meaning Wanyan Company had to enter the pharmaceutical market and compete for the largest share of the cake! This was connected to Bai Yan’s core interests, and he would not take any step back in the face of public opinion!
Bai Yan would not allow anyone to interfere with his progress of increasing his own power!
On the stage, a group of Wanyan Company’s staff walked up, led by Li Xiaoman with tightly furrowed brows.
"Here she is! The main event has arrived!"
The reporters below quieted down, and the spotlight and cameras turned uniformly towards the stage.
Li Xiaoman, dressed in a cheongsam, stepped forward, took a deep breath, then revealed an elegant smile as she began slowly, "First and foremost, thank you very much for taking the time to attend Wanyan Company’s product launch..."
After the introduction, Li Xiaoman instructed the staff to come to the stage, carrying three types of medicine, and sequentially introduced the characteristics and effects of Wanyan Company’s three drugs.
"This first one is Biological Potion No.1, 50ml, with functions..."
Li Xiaoman, in her red cheongsam, charmingly introduced the three Wanyan biological potions on stage. With her captivating eyes, she drew the attention of most.
Below the stage, there was an odd silence, aside from the clicking sounds of cameras, everyone listened to Li Xiaoman’s introduction with bizarre expressions.
On the online live streaming platform, many viewers began to flood the comments.
"What the hell is this? A cure for terminal illnesses? That’s just fucking absurd!"
"This woman looks really beautiful, but what a pity, she has such a malicious heart, even exaggerating to this extent to launch fake medicine!"
"Damn, the more I watch, the angrier I get, why has no one exposed Wanyan Company’s fake medicine yet!!!"
Enraged netizens were furiously flooding the chat with messages; the screen was filled with nothing but negative news about Wanyan Company. The paid trolls no longer needed to set the tone; the barrage of live broadcast messages were now all targeting Wanyan Company’s drugs.
Countless millions of netizens were vehemently venting their dissatisfaction with the fake medicine, much to the pleasure of the trolls, who were enjoying their leisure.
"Next, it’s time for questions from reporters. Please feel free to ask your questions and I will answer them if possible."
Li Xiaoman smiled politely, a tiny wireless microphone at the corner of her sensuous mouth, her crisp and pleasant voice resounding throughout the venue.
"I’m a reporter from HZ station. May I ask when Wanyan Company plans to start selling this miraculous medicine?"
A female reporter stood up.
Li Xiaoman replied with a smile: "Tomorrow morning at 8 o’clock, Wanyan Company will officially accept orders from pharmacies and hospitals nationwide."
"I am a reporter from HZ Daily. General Manager Li, what will be the price point for the three types of medicines your company offers?"
"Biological Potion No.1 is priced at 100,000 RMB, Biological Potion No.2 is priced at 500 RMB, and Biological Potion No.3 is priced at 100 RMB. All prices I mentioned are the factory prices; the selling price may be 10% higher. In addition, except for No.2 and No.3, which are supplied in large quantities, Biological Potion No.1 is produced only in a batch of 100 units per month and sold on a limited basis."
Li Xiaoman smiled confidently.
After the camera broadcast Li Xiaoman mentioning these prices, instantly, countless households in HZ city and a large number of netizens became even angrier!
"Shit, 100,000 RMB for one dose of medicine?!! Why doesn’t she just rob people!"
"Haha, heartless fake medicine company, not to mention the unknown efficacy of the medicine, but such an exorbitant initial price? Is she that desperate for money?"
"Speechless, today I’ve seen what it means to be shameless! Wanyan Company dares to set such a high price!"
Netizens across the internet were filled with indignation, even some reporters at the press conference frowned and showed disapproval.
Finally, someone couldn’t help but stand up and confront Li Xiaoman.
"I’m a reporter from DF station. Is Wanyan Company’s medicine really as powerful as you claim?!"
A man with glasses sneered as he stood.
"Yes, the effects of the medication can be guaranteed, we can let the facts speak for themselves."
Li Xiaoman nodded.
"What a way to let the facts speak! But how can Wanyan Company guarantee that your medicines are not fake? Are you planning to use the lives of the public as your test subjects?!!!"
The DF station reporter’s expression was one of righteous indignation, angrily pointing at Li Xiaoman and rebuking her.
Everyone is not a fool; although the internet was abuzz with rumors of Wanyan Company selling fake medicine, there was no solid evidence proving that these three medicines were fake.
The person who stood up to challenge Li Xiaoman at this moment, no doubt, came with the intention to cause trouble!
This DF station reporter, apparently, had backing from someone; showing such an unabashedly tough questioning attitude at the press conference was clearly intended not to leave Wanyan Company any way out!
Even if Wanyan Company’s drugs were not fake, they could still be hit by public opinion!
For a pharmaceutical company, this was undoubtedly a devastating blow!
Below the stage, Bai Yan slightly frowned and whispered, "Don’t panic, let’s see how they play this out."
Bai Yan’s composed voice came through the earpiece, giving Li Xiaoman a slight sense of relief. She smiled and said, "What kind of proof do you need? Wanyan Company has all the necessary documents, including the approval for the medicine. How else would you like us to prove it?"
"How to prove it? Prove it on the spot!!!"
The DF station reporter sneered: "I’ve been entrusted by someone and as a media person, it’s my responsibility to expose such unscrupulous fake medicine sellers! Today, I have specially invited several patients from the First Hospital of HZ city. Do you dare to use your so-called Medicine No.1 to cure them on the spot?!!!"
As the reporter finished speaking, several people in the audience stood up, including elderly, children, and women, all with sallow or pale complexions, clearly suffering from chronic illnesses.
Indeed, this person came prepared today!
