Chapter 369 A Shocking Speech


    Qiu Mu-Cheng wondered how impressive it would be if she could get these big shots to support Mufan


    Real Estate''s opening ceremony.


    Then Qiu Mu-Ying, her grandfather, and the others would have nothing to say.


    An inexplicable smile surfaced instantly on Qiu Mu-Cheng''s face as she contemted. Then Qiu Mu-


    Cheng took the initiative to hand out the invitation to every person she met. Qiu Mu-Cheng lowered


    herself and treated these business circle veterans with the utmost respect when she invited them to


    Mufan Real Estate''s opening ceremony.


    But after giving them out for a long time, not a single person epted Qiu Mu-Cheng''s invitation.


    Almost everyone rejected her with all kinds of excuses.


    In the end, Qiu Mu-Cheng hung her head dejectedly and was on the verge of giving up.


    "Qianqian, why is this happening? Why isn''t there a single person who is willing to go?” Beforeing


    to the dinner, Qiu Mu-Cheng thought it was impossible that not a single one of these powerful leaders


    was unable to turn up. They were busy people, but she thought at least one in ten would have the time


    to attend the opening ceremony.


    But the harsh reality pped Qiu Mu-Cheng viciously on her face.


    Su Qian had just finished chatting with a rich young master and was walking back with a red wine ss


    in hand. At the sight of how disappointed Qiu Mu-Cheng was, Su Qian seemed scarcely surprised.


    Instead, Su Qian looked like she saw iting all along as she said, "Mu-Cheng, I already told you it


    wouldn''t work."


    "But why? Wasn''t I polite or respectful enough? Why did they reject me without even taking the


    invitation or saying anything nice? Why are they like this?"


    Qiu Mu-Cheng found it iprehensible. She clearly made a lot of effort and was respectful to the


    point that she was even somewhat meek and almost begged when she invited them.


    In the end, nothing worked.


    "Mu-Cheng, haven''t you figured it out yet? You were simply too respectful and meek towards them, so


    they don''t give a hoot abouting. Humans just have deep-rooted habits. The more you humble


    yourself to them, the more they treat you with disdain and ignore you, so they naturally won''t ept


    your invitation. But if you presented yourself with a lofty attitude, they would fawn and scramble after


    you. Why don''t you understand such a simple theory?" sighed Su Qian as she shook her head.


    Qiu Mu-Chengughed in self-ridicule when she heard this. Then she said, "Qianqian, I know what you


    are talking about. I want to be lofty and not have to lower myself either, but what else can I do? Mufan


    Real Estate is a tiny unknownpany after all, and these people have probably never even heard of


    us. How can we have the confidence to put on airs given the situation? Do we have what it takes for


    them to fawn us?"


    Su Qian immediatelyughed when she heard this. Then she said, "Mu-Cheng, are you stupid? If a


    hundreds and thousands of businesses with billions worth of assets. But can you name them all? So if


    you don''t mention it, no one will know that Mufan Real Estate is a tiny business. It''s not like anyone


    here knows you."


    Qiu Mu-Cheng was stunned as she said, "Qianqian, are you going to..."


    Then before Qiu Mu-Cheng could finish, Su Qian smiled slyly and said, "Mu-Cheng, wait for me and


    watch me. Remember to coordinate with meter."


    "Qianqian, you..."


    Qiu Mu-Cheng seemed to realize what Su Qian was up to and attempted to stop her. But Su Qian had


    already walked to the center of the hall towards a stage where the leaders delivered speeches.


    By now, Su Qian had already walked up the stage to stand at the highest point in the hall. Then she


    held the microphone and said proudly, "Ladies and gentlemen, good evening! I am Mufan Group''s


    deputy CEO, Su Qian. It''s Mufan Group''s first time expanding our operation into Yunzhou, and our


    Yunzhou branch office has yet to open. In theory, we don''t have the right to attend the Yunzhou


    Entrepreneurs'' Dinner, but Han Dong-Min enthusiastically called us three times, hoping that we could


    "On behalf of our CEO, Miss Qiu, allow me to express gratitude for Deputy Mayor Han''s warm wee


    and thank all the entrepreneurs present for having us here. Thank you for epting Mufan Group so


    graciously."


    Su Qian''s resounding voice suddenly reverberated through the hall.


    Very quickly, many people turned their heads to look at Su Qian and listened to her. A lot of them


    looked shocked and perplexed.


    "Mufan Group?''


    "Chairman Wang, you are more experienced. Have you heard of thispany?"


    "They sound powerful!"


    "No, I haven''t heard of them! But judging from what Miss Su said, it sounds like they are from another


    city and want to expand into Yunzhou, so it''s normal for them to be unheard of. Since Mayor Han


    personally called to invite them, Mufan Group must be a huge operation! They might be the next


    Hongqi Group!"


    "Heavens, are they that influential?"


    "Doesn''t that make them more powerful than Shen Group?"


    "I think Mufan Group probably rivals them. Or else, Mayor Han wouldn''t have called them personally."


    "Other than Hongqi Group and Shen Group, the Yunzhou government has never given any other


    "Another corporate giant has entered the Yunzhou market."


    "We must hold tightly onto this opportunity."


    "Businesses like them have the support of huge conglomerates. If we have can gain their backing too,


    All text ? N?velD(r)a''ma.Org.


    our business might be able to expand outside of Yunzhou and Jiangdong."


    A fire was already burning in their eyes while many people contemted.


    Qiu Mu-Cheng had to admit that Su Qian''s speech was exceptionally well-done.


    It was the paragon of pretending.


    First, Su Qian lowered herself to say that Mufan Group didn''t right to attend the dinner. Then she


    turned the conversation around to say Han Dong-Min enthusiastically invited them three times before


    Mufan Group humbly attended the dinner.


    Su Qian appeared deferential.


    But when Su Qian dropped the bomb that the deputy mayor invited them thrice, Mufan Group''s status


    undoubtedly propelled to apletely terrifying height and left everyone in shock. Many enterprise


    CEOs even intended to chat with Su Qian and ingratiate themselves to Mufan Group.


    Such was the art of speech. Although Su Qian appeared respectful, the crowd perceived it as modesty.


    Inparison, they saw Qiu Mu-Cheng''s previous respect as a weakness.


    This is what human nature was like. Humans treated weaklings with utter contempt while they


    incessantly schemed to ingratiate themselves to those who were loftier than them.


    As all the rich and influential businessmen in the hall discussed how powerful Mufan Group must be,


    Qiu Mu-Ying and the others furrowed their brows tightly.


    "Su Qian? Isn''t that Qiu Mu-Cheng''s best friend? Did they just call themselves


    Mufan Group? Are they talking about that lousy Mufan Real Estate that Qiu Mu-Cheng''s owns? That


    is Su Qian up to?" asked Qiu Mu-Ying quizzically.


    Old Master Qiu and the others clearly noticed this too, so they frowned as they watched Su Qian


    perform.
