The doors of the Regent International Hotel were wide open, and Ge Weidong, Chen Ze, and the others entered the hotel together.
As they stepped into the hotel lobby, a lively atmosphere greeted them.
More than twenty tables were neatly arranged, and each table was full of people. Roughly estimated, there were more than a hundred people here.
These people come from different backgrounds, but they are all cotton merchants from all over the country. At this moment, they have all gathered here with a common goal: to unite and repel foreign capital.
At the far end of the crowd, the two front tables were empty, clearly reserved for Ge Weidong and his group. Ge Weidong led Chen Ze through the crowd, heading straight for the two empty tables.
After Chen Ze and the others took their seats, Ge Weidong picked up the microphone and slowly walked onto the stage.
He stood on the podium, looked around, met everyone's gaze, then cleared his throat and said in a loud and clear voice:
"Thank you all for your trust in inviting me to join you in dealing with foreign capital. From yesterday to today, our cotton futures market has been experiencing a huge storm, with prices falling sharply. I can feel that this time, foreign capital is coming on strong, and their capital is quite large, which has brought us unprecedented pressure."
Ge Weidong's words caused a stir among the audience, who whispered and discussed among themselves.
Then, Ge Weidong paused briefly before continuing, "However, we cannot be intimidated by their momentum. Today, I have specially invited a special guest to join me in fighting against foreign capital. He is Mr. Chen Ze!"
As soon as Ge Weidong finished speaking, the people below the stage all turned their attention to Chen Ze. Some looked curious, while others seemed unfamiliar with the name.
Seeing this, Ge Weidong quickly explained, "Many of you here may not know Mr. Chen Ze, but that's alright. I believe that through this collaboration, everyone will have a deeper understanding of him..."
Just then, a burst of enthusiastic applause suddenly rang out, interrupting Ge Weidong's words. The applause was deafening and lasted for quite a while, as if it were a welcome and recognition of Chen Ze. After the applause subsided, Ge Weidong continued, "Now, let's invite Mr. Chen to come up on stage and say a few words."
Chen Ze stood up, smiled and nodded to everyone, then walked onto the podium.
He took the microphone and said in a deep voice, "Ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon. My name is Chen Ze. It is an honor to fight alongside you. This time, foreign capital is coming in strong, but we also have our advantages. Let's raise funds together and unite to protect our cotton futures market."
"I am personally willing to contribute 1 billion yuan to fight alongside everyone and stand together through thick and thin. As long as we are united, I believe we can definitely defeat foreign capital."
"Clap clap clap clap clap..."
Enthusiastic applause echoed through the hotel lobby.
After the applause subsided.
The audience below the stage all perked up their ears, their eyes filled with anticipation.
Chen Ze continued, "Foreign capital may seem to have huge amounts of funds, but there are definitely loopholes at certain key points. We can concentrate our efforts and launch an attack when their cash flow is weak."
At this point, someone in the audience asked, "Mr. Chen, how do you determine the weak periods you mentioned?"
Chen Ze smiled confidently: "Of course, it's through big data analysis and market dynamic monitoring. Next, we can flexibly adjust our strategies based on the real-time situation. I won't go into the details of other professional knowledge here."
After hearing this, everyone whispered among themselves, their worries lessening and replaced by a sense of determination.
Meanwhile, Mr. Yu in the front row pursed his lips, revealing his extreme contempt for Chen Ze's speech. He snorted and muttered to himself, "Anyone can brag. Let's see how he handles it when it's actually implemented. When he makes a fool of himself, I'll see where he puts his face."
Seeing this, President Su, who was standing next to President Yu, smiled slyly and said softly, "If you really mess this up, wouldn't that be perfect for you to make a hundred million for free?"
Upon hearing this, General Manager Yu abruptly raised his head and replied arrogantly, "One hundred million is nothing to me. The key is that if we lose to foreign capital this time, our cotton industry will be completely finished!"
As soon as Mr. Yu finished speaking, the other bosses nodded in agreement, clearly agreeing with what he said.
Just then, Chen Ze's speech finally came to an end, and he walked off the stage with a smile on his face.
Upon seeing this, Ge Weidong immediately strode forward, patted Chen Ze on the shoulder warmly, and praised, "With a capable assistant like President Chen, we will definitely be able to make those foreign companies suffer a crushing defeat this time!"
Chen Ze smiled modestly and replied, "President Ge, you flatter me. We still need everyone's concerted efforts." After saying that, the two of them walked to the table together.
With a smile, Ge Weidong slowly extended his hand to the left, his fingers resting on the man with curly hair, and then warmly introduced him: "This is Mr. Bahar, the chairman of Xinjiang Tak Cotton Group."
Upon hearing his name mentioned, Bahar immediately stood up, his movements elegant and swift. A friendly smile graced his face, and his deep eyes revealed wisdom and confidence. He extended his right hand and shook hands firmly with Chen Ze.
Chen Ze sensed that Bahar's handshake was of moderate strength, neither too forceful nor weak.
Their hands touched briefly before quickly separating, as if the handshake had conveyed mutual respect and friendship.
