Chapter 1593: Zhishan Club’s Charity Banquet
The venue for the charity banquet jointly held by the Zhishan Club and Lanxin Company was at the Shangri-La’s grand hall.
It was quite a large-scale banquet, with all the reputable people of China’s upper-cla.s.s society invited and even the T-K Corporation’s higher management in charge of China’s market, as well as everyone in the Genesis Investment Company, had also received the invites.
This move of the Lanxin Company was undoubtedly filled with tease and declaration for war and truly made it interesting.
The T-K Corporation and the Genesis Investment Company were enraged by Lanxin Company’s arrogant act. However, even more so, they wanted to see for themselves the true ident.i.ty of the mastermind behind Lanxin Company who had gone against T-K Corporation numerous times.
They wanted to know who exactly was this despicable, shameless, and unscrupulous businessman.
It was 8 P.M. and the banquet officially began.
The invited guests had already mostly arrived.
Wen Xinya arrived under everyone’s gaze.
She was wearing a Pheonix mask which covered half of her face, and covering the other half of her face was a black veil. The black veil, which wasn’t thin, made half of her face radiate a kind of blurry elegance and the mysteriousness of not exposing her ident.i.ty.
She wore a black v-neck evening gown, revealing her exquisite collarbones as well as a huge area of the snow-white skin of her chest. A chain with diamond fragments and gemstones hung loosely on her waist, swaying along with her slim waist and glistening under the chandelier lights. An entire set of extravagant diamond jewelry, when worn on her, didn’t appear exaggerating, boorish, or lavish, and instead complemented her looks.
Not everyone could withstand such glamor, but Wen Xinya happened to be able to.
Her long flowy skirt danced in tandem with her generous steps and the charming stance complemented her peerless aura, which enchanted everyone present.
Compared to Wen Xinya’s usual elegance and gorgeousness, she was now charming and majestic.
Such completely different styles would make it hard for anyone to guess that they were actually the same person.
“Have I seen clearly—she’s the mastermind behind Lanxin Company?”
“Oh my, I really didn’t expect that the mastermind behind Lanxin Company is actually a woman. And a young one at that.”
“Why do you think she’s wearing a mask and not showing her face—is she too ugly to face the world?”
“Don’t spout nonsense, don’t get yourself into trouble. This mysterious mastermind behind Lanxin Company isn’t an ordinary character. Even the Zhishan Club openly supports her—I think she definitely has an extraordinary background.”
“That’s what I said! Lanxin Company is merely an unlisted small company, how would they dare to go against the T-K Corporation. So they have someone to back them up, seems like the T-K Corporation will die in her hands this time.”
Everyone broke into heated discussions.
However, Jose was agitated. He had sacrificed his pride and came to this banquet to actually see such an ambiguous face, and it seemed like the other party was younger than expected—it was like a hard slap on his face.
Chu Jingnan was also similarly disappointed.
He also wanted to know who exactly was the opponent that rejected his invitation time and again, ignored his presence, and made him feel like he had met his match.
However, he was destined to be disappointed today.
For appropriateness, Wen Xinya didn’t appear before the crowds or face the media directly. Instead, she entered the stage directly through the banquet hall’s side door.
She gradually stepped onto the stage as the lightings in the hall gathered upon her and all the cameras in the hands of the reporters pointed at her.
“Everyone, welcome to the large-scale charity banquet jointly held by the Zhishan Club and Lanxin Company. I’m the legal representative of Lanxin Company, Bella.”
Wen Xinya’s voice was a far cry from her usual clear and crisp voice. It was slightly hoa.r.s.e and with a tinge of vague seductiveness, like a fragrant red wine which emitted an exquisite and superior scent.
She was using the same nickname that she had used when she went to America with Si Yiyan previously!
However, Bella was indeed her English name. However, besides Si Yiyan and her buddies, no one else knew.
Wen Xinya’s black and bright gaze, through the black veil, was solemn and serious. “The purpose of tonight’s charity banquet is for the agreement between the Zhishan Club and Lanxin Company to jointly set up the Angel Business a.s.sociation which will support China’s brands and China’s financial development.”
Wen Xinya’s words were almost earth-shattering.
This was undoubtedly the next charity event after the Zhishan Club’s social work charity event four years ago, which also meant that the Zhishan Club focused on charity and would support the development of China’s brands. In this case, the Zhishan Club would build a good rapport with more Chinese businesses and its reputation would be even more permeated through China’s social levels.
Wen Xinya continued, “I’m very thankful for the trust that the Zhishan Club has given Lanxin Company all along and their support for Lanxin Company at a time when China’s brands are attacked and invaded by external forces. Lanxin Company hereby solemnly promises the world that we will definitely support the development of charity businesses in the future and contribute our precious yet weak strength for charity. At the same time, I’d like to call out to the society to notice charity businesses and show charity our love.”
Her charismatic voice was filled with enthusiasm.
Lanxin Company wasn’t merely paying lip service. Those who had been following the acquisition battle between Lanxin Company and T-K Corporation would know that since the incorporation of Lanxin Company, they already had a corporate social responsibility branch which was rather comprehensive. In recent years, Lanxin Company’s charity business had also started to extend towards the medical field.
Lanxin Company was thoroughly involved in charity.
This would bring a formidable positive influence to Lanxin Company’s reputation and their products.
“In order to fully support this charity banquet, from now until this time three days later, Lanxin Company will channel all of its health supplements sales to charity. Here’s hoping for everyone’s support.”
With this, the entire banquet hall couldn’t help but break into a commotion.
Lanxin Company’s health supplements brand had always been in the mainstream market of China’s health supplements. Since the Lanxin Company’s e-commerce online marketing sales obtained huge success, their products had even been sold overseas.
The sales figures every day were rather ma.s.sive.
To channel the entire three days of sales figures to charity was decisiveness and courage that not any ordinary person possessed. Moreover, it was at a time when Lanxin Company and T-K Corporation were in their most difficult, arduous, and devastating time in their battle.
Everyone was filled with shock and, at the same time, uncontrollably with admiration.
