Chapter 25
But this was, after all, just a performance.
Even if they wanted to criticize, they could only criticize this fictional character! That was meaningless!
And the majority of the audience.
While deeply shocked by Su Chen’s highly inflammatory speech.
Felt a bit of wavering in their hearts without realizing it!
Could the mainstream values they had always accepted... really help them succeed....
Were the successful people they wanted to become... really people like Su Chen??
Su Chen’s current speech was undoubtedly stripping the skin off this elite class directly, and even somewhat violently!
Originally, in social perception, a stockbroker as successful as him.
Should be like the one performed by Zhu Sanlong, polite and well-spoken, a person who had received higher education and could make a greater contribution to the functioning of this society!
But what Su Chen displayed... was extreme greed! Lust! vulgarity! Low-class! One could even say his values were extremely twisted!
To gain wealth, one could use any means! One could abandon any morality, rules, or even laws!
But it cannot be denied.
The character Su Chen played was, in the general perception of the public, an absolute winner!
[This... aren't Su Chen’s words a bit too explicit??]
[And very vulgar too...]
[But it can't be denied, such a speech is really very inflammatory!]
[To be honest, I’m really a bit convinced! I definitely don’t want to become the former in Su Chen’s words! Living a mediocre life!]
[These words have such a huge impact on us, let alone these employees who were already hungry!]
[Between the two choices, I think as long as they are normal people, they would definitely choose to become the latter! To have a successful life!].
[This is sexism!! Women are not men’s accessories!! Boycott Su Chen, the inferior artist!!]
[Did the person above go crazy with the social justice warrior act? He’s acting, and even if it were a real speech, what does it have to do with you? Are you perhaps the wildebeest??]
[Must have been poked in a sore spot, hahaha!]
Su Chen had no way of knowing about the crazy rhythm being stirred up in the livestream room.
But even if he did, he wouldn't take it to heart at all.
Whether standing from the perspective of playing Jordan or from his own perspective!
Admittedly.
The words Jordan said were twisted in terms of values, and absolutely did not meet public expectations!
But, it cannot be denied entirely.
This society is indeed as Jordan said! Extremely realistic!
The definition of success is, in the vast majority of cases, indeed judged based on money and status!
The strong can have everything, while the weak can only watch!
And even the performer, Su Chen.
Could not help but be infected by the atmosphere at this moment!
A nameless anger was pent up in his heart! Burning him!
Looking at the ‘wolf pack’ below the stage, their eyes also filled with fanaticism and greed!
Su Chen was serious as never before.
“So listen to me carefully! And listen well!”
“Do you still have credit card bills that haven't been paid off?!”
“Good!”
“Pick up your phones and start dialing!”
“Is your landlord about to kick you out?!”
“Good!”
“Pick up your phones! And start dialing!!”
“Does your girlfriend think you’re a failed loser?!”
“Good!”
“Pick up your phones!”
“And start dialing!!”
“I want you to make enough money!!”
“Use your money to solve all these problems!!”
Accompanied by the layering of emotions! The veins on Su Chen’s forehead became even more prominent!
Pointing at everyone below the stage, his volume increased with every sentence! His face was red! The muscles on his face were even trembling slightly!
Before the words had even finished!
There was a roaring response of anger and cheers from below!
The atmosphere of the entire venue boiled to near its peak! It only needed a fuse! And it would explode completely!!
Countless employees had red eyes, panting heavily! Their bodies were hot! Their inner fighting spirit was burning fiercely!
“The only thing you need to do today is pick up that phone!”
“Say what I taught you to say!”
“And then I can make you richer than most of the powerful company executives in this country!!”
Su Chen continued to say viciously! Clenching his fists!
“I want you to get on the field!”
“And shove Steve’s company stock down your client’s throat!!”
“Until they choke!”
“Until they choke and buy a hundred thousand shares!!”
“That’s what I want!”
“You need to be vicious enough!”
“You need to be ruthless enough!”
“You need to be a damn phone-terrorist kidnapper!!”
Su Chen said this whole passage almost roaring! Waving his clenched fists! Veins popping with anger!
In an instant!
Su Chen’s roar ignited the atmosphere of the entire office and even the livestream room!
Volcanic eruptions of cursing and roaring sounded! The whole building seemed to be trembling because of it!
Every employee and even countless viewers had a fire pent up in their hearts! A surge of energy!
As if under Su Chen’s roar!
Everyone had recovered their most primitive wildness and savagery!
They wanted to viciously participate in the hunt! They wanted to greedily tear large chunks of flesh from their prey! To suck!
They wanted to become the creatures at the top of this pyramid!
They wanted to succeed!!
Money! Meat! Power! Enjoyment!!
All of this was completely burning and bursting forth in everyone’s hearts!
“Now!!”
“Let’s start this damn operation!!”
Su Chen roared, like a general at an expedition ceremony! Waving the microphone in his hand!
His words carried extreme majesty and incitement!
And the office, which had been boiling to the point of exploding a second ago, calmed down instantly at Su Chen’s command! A complete silence!
All the employees who were excited to the point of roaring, their eyes red, upon hearing the order!
Were just like battle-hardened, well-trained soldiers!
Without any hesitation, they picked up the phones at their workstations and started dialing!.
Although the movements were not uniform, the visual impact was unparalleled!!
The wolf pack, which had been like savage beasts a second ago, with red necks and angry roars.
Instantly regained their calm after hearing the order! And threw themselves into the hunt!
The entire office fell into a tense calm!
Then!
The moment the calls connected, the noise filled the room! The voices were deafening!!
[First Act AI Score: 93 points]
[Contestant Number Three’s performance has ended!]
Amidst the scene of hundreds of employees frantically dialing to sell stocks.
The clip from The Wolf of Wall Street also came to an end.
The AI score appeared on the screen.
Although it was slightly lower than Su Chen’s score in the first round, and even a few points lower than the AI average score of the first round.
But no one could deny the shocking effect of Su Chen’s performance!
And this score was also a level that the vast majority of actors could only look up to!
Watching Su Chen, who had entered the 90-point range without any pressure.
Even Zhu Sanlong in the livestream room and many anti-fans who disliked Su Chen.
Deeply understood the principle of not fighting an uphill battle under this score, and all retreated, not daring to show their faces.
And almost all the viewers.
Only now came back to their senses from the highly impactful scene just now.
Looking at their own fists, which they had clenched subconsciously while listening to Su Chen’s speech, and their surging hearts.
They were even more shocked! In disbelief!
Without realizing it.... they had actually been deeply infected by Su Chen’s mobilization speech?! And even felt their blood boiling just like those employees??
In an instant.
Shock appeared in the eyes of countless viewers!
Su Chen’s speech.... actually had such a heart-stirring power?!
[Damn.... I was actually really made to feel my blood boil by Su Chen’s speech just now!!]
[Me too!!]
[I’ve had this feeling before when I listened to a lecture by a very famous success-study master in the country in person!!]
[It’s too terrifying, to be honest... this kind of rhetoric really has the ability to bewitch people!]
[It depends on how you use it! For example, I am now full of motivation for my studies! I want to become the rich person Su Chen talked about!!]
[Indeed! This speech is indeed very motivating!]
[But... how does Su Chen know these things? Isn't he just an actor??]
[What is called professional? Knowing everything! That is professional! Those who only know how to play the domineering CEO shouldn't try to compare!]
[To be honest, as a boss of a small company, after watching Mr. Su Chen’s performance, I really feel I’ve benefited a lot! I know how to truly mobilize my employees now!]
And on the high-seated judge’s bench, after a few people discussed it, it was decided that Chen Yilin, the professional for this round, would come forward to give the critique.
“Ahem.”
“Thank you, contestant Su Chen, for bringing us such a wonderful performance.”
“As someone in the relevant industry, I can only say, it’s too wonderful! Too realistic!”
“To the point that for a moment, I even thought I was auditing a wolf-style mobilization meeting of some industry bigwig.”
“This speech cannot be faulted from any angle! It could even be used directly as a professional template for industry speeches!”
“I don’t know how contestant Su Chen managed to be so thorough.”
“But I only saw two words in his performance! Confidence!”
“The core of this speech is absolutely not desire or vanity! But Su Chen’s own absolute confidence!”
“Only absolute confidence can infect others!!”
“I originally thought I came here today to explain professional knowledge or analyze flaws for everyone.”
“But I didn't expect....”
Saying this.
Chen Yilin paused and did not continue.
“Thank you again, contestant Su Chen, for the wonderful performance!”
