Chapter 1740: Wen Xinya’s Interview!
The acquisition war between China’s health supplements industry and T-K Corporation had completely settled down.
Just then, the Health Supplements Association announced to the media that it would be recommending NBJ’s chairman, Luo Desen, to be the chairman of the association to oversee China’s health supplements industry.
This news received widespread attention.
Although everyone felt that it was a waste that Miss Bella didn’t assume the role of the chairman to lead the entire Health Supplements Association, everyone approved of Luo Desen assuming this role.
NBJ’s products were the most popular and with the longest history locally. Everyone witnessed how NBJ had paid a painful price resisting T-K Corporation in this acquisition war. Additionally, Luo Desen had already previously assumed the chairmanship of the association for a couple of years. With him coming forward to stabilize the situation right now, everyone was at ease.
At this point, the media’s thoughts cleared up.
They understood why Bella was determined to resign from the post of acting chairman of the association. Losing the role of chairman of the association would cause no loss to Lanxin Company. However, it was crucial for the barely surviving NBJ.
When interviewed by the reporters, Luo Desen praised her in front of the media. “Miss Bella is the most broad-minded person I’ve ever met.”
This indirectly proved the media’s guess.
Her act received praise from people from all industries. A famous global financial expert said, “Miss Bella’s act is a historical one which will push China’s health supplements industry into the world stage.”
Under the attention of everyone, Lanxin Company completed its historical process of getting listed.
At the same time, on the day that Lanxin Company got listed, Wen Xinya accepted China’s financial channel’s invitation for a special interview regarding the acquisition war with T-K Corporation.
“Actually, I’m not totally against business acquisitions. After all, this is the direction of globalization, a process which benefits the development of the financial markets in the world, and a healthy competition which improves both countries’ financial markets—I’m rather supportive. I hope that in the future, there’ll be more external investors realizing the huge potential of the Chinese market and investing in China, forming healthy competition which pushes both parties to improve.”
Wen Xinya was wearing a full Chanel business suit of the latest design.
It was a black vest coat matched with a white inner long-sleeved lace blouse. The waist-clinching design accentuated her beautiful curves, which naturally made her look more feminine and formal, yet not solemn and boring.
She sat cross-legged on a cream-colored sofa opposite the host, speaking with confidence and ease, earning the deep admiration of the audience present with her style and aura.
The host smiled and said, “The chairman of the Health Supplements Association, Mr. Luo Desen, praised you for your broad-mindedness—it seems like he spoke the truth.”
This program especially interviewed the most influential people in China’s financial industry and was well-known in the world. Those who could land themselves a special interview here were almost all reputable characters in the financial industry.
And Wen Xinya didn’t land herself in this program with her wealth.
She had been pushed onto this program today by the people of China.
At the same time, she officially landed herself in one of the most influential episodes of the program ever since it was set up.
The tickets to the seats were totally sold out within an hour of being released online.
Such popularity was simply stunning.
Of course, she was a stunning character in her own right.
Wen Xinya smiled humbly. “Old Mr. Luo is too generous with his praise. China’s health supplements brands took a huge hit from the acquisition war and are now already in a bad shape. At this time when many things are waiting to be done, regardless of age or experience, only the seasoned Old Mr. Luo can truly take charge.”
She was uninterested in the matters of the Health Supplements Association and Luo Desen was indeed more suitable for the post than her.
The host continued asking, “During this acquisition war, what upset you the most?”
Everyone knew that previously, T-K Corporation had spread rumors that the self-centered Lanxin Company had been bribed by T-K Corporation and betrayed the local brands. At one point, Lanxin Company had been detested by everyone, and people even threw foul eggs at Bella.
She had wholeheartedly resisted the acquisition to protect the local brands, but was instead misunderstood, criticized, and condemned by people—anyone would feel upset.
Wen Xinya gave it some thought, crossed her hands which were placed on her thighs, and said, “It upset me the most that the fall of Mei Shan Company, Ming Yuan, and many small health supplements companies has caused many ordinary folks to lose their living, income, and even homes, causing them to suffer. They’re the most innocent parties, yet they suffered the most painful price and outcome of the acquisition battle.”
Mentioning this made Wen Xinya feel extremely solemn.
The host and audience obviously didn’t expect such a reply from her and were stunned and surprised at the same time.
Wen Xinya continued saying, “Lanxin Company is officially listed and will quickly expand. Right now, I’ll announce to everyone that Lanxin Company’s doors are open to the victims of the acquisition war.
“However, we hope to seek everyone’s understanding that the company won’t need too many people, so we can’t promise to give everyone an employment opportunity. Lanxin Company will give priority to those who really need the jobs at the current stage, and we also hope that everyone gives this chance to those who really need help.”
She spoke from the bottom of her heart.
With that, the crowd broke into a commotion.
The host commended her. “Mencius said, ‘Be kind to yourself when you’re poor and help others when you’re rich.’ This shows complementary thoughts of China’s Confucianism and Taoism—Miss Bella is a model of modern noble businesswomen.”
Wen Xinya smiled and said, “This is also a way of living.”
Intense applause sounded from the audience.
Obviously, the host’s words were the thoughts of the people, and Wen Xinya’s reply, although mild, was more practical.
The host asked the question that everyone was curious about. “Previously, under the intense attacks by T-K Corporation and embroiled in the masses’ negativity, it was said that people even threw foul eggs at Miss Bella. What were your feelings then?”
Wen Xinya thought about it and said, “I definitely felt wronged. However, I felt more heartache and anger. My heart ached for our people who weren’t united and didn’t trust us. I was angry at T-K Corporation for making use of the intense patriotism of our people, making us attack and hurt each other, and twisting the hearts of our patriotic people into their weapons against Lanxin Company. At the same time, I was even more determined to defeat T-K Corporation to expose their true, ugly, and unscrupulous selves.”
In Wen Xinya’s reply, she only briefly mentioned the injustice to herself, yet emphasized on the rage she felt at that time.
This moved everyone present.
