Chapter 169: Chapter 169: Li Muwan’s Fury: Jiang Fan, You Run Deep

"Those motherfuckers! Playing dirty and just throwing cash around???"

Jiang Fan scratched his head. He really hadn’t expected them to pull a move like this.

’You guys were already a tough opponent when you teamed up. Who the hell came up with such a dirty trick?’

He was cursing up a storm in his head.

With just this one move, they had cut all his advantages in half.

After all, who’s going to say no to cash?

The competition between the two companies, at its core, was a battle for the First Shopping Mall.

This mall was the largest and most famous one in the entire Celestial Dragon District. Whoever controlled it would find the other five malls to be mere afterthoughts.

Jiang Fan had already received intel that they had hired international supermodels to show off their figures, display the new products, and celebrate the grand opening.

But he never imagined they’d pull a stunt like this. This one move had siphoned off most of the foot traffic in the entire mall.

His once-bustling store was now pathetically empty.

The seven models and the few shop assistants looked at each other, then all turned their gazes to Jiang Fan.

They hadn’t even started their main event yet...

"Don’t worry about it. A stunt like this can certainly grab some attention, but it won’t last. There are too many people."

"If people can’t squeeze their way in, they’ll just give up trying."

"Besides, I refuse to believe they can keep throwing money around indefinitely."

Jiang Fan’s gaze drifted toward the four storefronts across the way.

Just then, Li Fengming also walked out of his store. Their eyes met.

A mocking smile played on Li Fengming’s lips as he looked at Jiang Fan with contempt.

Jiang Fan could read his lips.

Brute!

’That’s right.’ In Li Fengming’s eyes, Jiang Fan was just a brute. He might be a good fighter, but when it came to business, he was a total amateur, complete trash.

’By pulling the rug out from under him like this, all those eye-catching girls he hired can do nothing but stand there helplessly, right?’

At that moment, Jiang Fan’s phone chimed.

It was messages from the girls he had sent to the other five malls.

Many of them were in the group chat asking him what to do.

It wasn’t just the First Shopping Mall; at the other five malls, Fengming Group was also throwing money around and holding large-scale runway shows.

As a result, their stores were practically empty.

They were dressed in incredibly seductive lingerie, striking all sorts of alluring poses, but it was all for nothing.

"Don’t lose heart, kid. This is a battle of endurance."

"We have way more people. They only have that one supermodel here; the runway shows at the other malls are just average."

"Let them have their laugh for now. I refuse to believe they can keep it up forever."

"We’ve prepared so many prizes and so much great content for this event. Plus, with my explosive and fiery figure, there’s no way we can’t beat them!"

A girl with the air of a boss lady slung her arm around Jiang Fan’s shoulders.

She was only about 170cm tall, but in high heels, she was only slightly shorter than Jiang Fan, so it didn’t look too strange for her to have her arm around his neck.

"I have faith in my plan. We’ll stick to our original strategy. Don’t lose your cool."

"Alright everyone, let’s get to work! It’s time for the dance routines we rehearsed."

"They’re doing a runway show? Fine. We’ll hit them with a whole variety of performances."

Jiang Fan waved his hand decisively.

As Jiang Fan’s team gradually rolled out their own performances, a portion of the mall’s foot traffic started to return.

Not everyone enjoyed jostling with the massive crowd downstairs.

And their money-throwing stunt only lasted for a short while before it stopped.

Without that draw, many people weren’t actually that interested in the high-fashion supermodel.

As the afternoon wore on, the number of people in Jiang Fan’s store grew, eventually reaching a level at least on par with the Fengming Group and its affiliated stores.

This made him breathe a sigh of relief.

As the girls performed with increasing energy, their sexy figures were simply too stunning and sizzling hot.

They gradually attracted the attention of many men, who would stop and watch even if they didn’t buy anything.

Of course, even more of the people who stayed were women.

The few shop assistants were swamped with work, and good news started pouring into the group chat.

A similar situation was playing out in the other major malls.

After finishing all her work in the morning, Li Muwan rushed over to the First Shopping Mall.

There, she found Jiang Fan holding a lingerie set, surrounded by a bevy of chattering women, passionately introducing his own products.

The girls surrounding him were all wearing the same matching set he was holding.

It created an even greater visual impact.

Seeing this, Li Muwan was absolutely fuming.

’Damn it all! The reputation Xuerong Group has built over so many years, completely ruined in a single day...!’

’When have we ever needed such an explicit marketing method??’

"Jiang Fan, you get your ass over here right now!!!"

This was definitely the first time in her entire life that Li Muwan had ever yelled like that in public.

She simply couldn’t suppress her rage!

Seeing Li Muwan, Jiang Fan was taken aback. He quickly handed the product to one of the girls. "You take over the presentation."

"Everyone, please wait a moment! I have to take care of something. We’ll have even more gifts and special offers coming up!!"

After shouting at the top of his lungs, Jiang Fan quickly squeezed out of the crowd and ran to her.

"Manager Li, what are you doing here?"

"I’m swamped over here. If you have something to say, say it," Jiang Fan said, glancing back frequently and looking a little anxious.

"Jiang Fan, have you lost your mind?"

Who would have thought that Li Muwan would suddenly grab Jiang Fan’s hair, force his head down, and hiss through gritted teeth.

"What do you mean, have I lost my mind? Can’t you see how well this is working?"

"People love a spectacle! What’s wrong with having these girls perform, introduce products, and host a prize drawing?"

"Look, our sales figures today are going to be off the charts! We’re holding our own against that supermodel across the way."

’What is this crazy woman up to now?’ he wondered, completely baffled.

Jiang Fan grabbed her hand. "Reputation! I’m asking you, do we care about our reputation anymore!!!"

"Xuerong Group’s grand opening features provocative models selling products!!"

"Can you guess what kind of damage a headline like that, a trending topic like that, would do to our group’s stock price??"

"Can you guess how people will see us!"

Li Muwan felt like she was about to go insane with rage.

"How will they see us? With their eyes! Their eyeballs are about to fall into the girls’ cleavages!!"

Jiang Fan was particularly self-righteous, yet he also looked aggrieved.
