That was meaningless!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And the majority of the audience.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>While deeply shocked by Su Chen’s highly inflammatory speech.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Felt a bit of wavering in their hearts without realizing it!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Could the mainstream values they had always accepted... really help them succeed....\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Were the successful people they wanted to become... really people like Su Chen??\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Su Chen’s current speech was undoubtedly stripping the skin off this elite class directly, and even somewhat violently!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Originally, in social perception, a stockbroker as successful as him.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>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!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But what Su Chen displayed... was extreme greed! Lust! vulgarity! Low-class! One could even say his values were extremely twisted!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>To gain wealth, one could use any means! One could abandon any morality, rules, or even laws!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But it cannot be denied.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The character Su Chen played was, in the general perception of the public, an absolute winner!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>[This... aren't Su Chen’s words a bit too explicit??]\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>[And very vulgar too...]\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>[But it can't be denied, such a speech is really very inflammatory!]\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>[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!]\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>[These words have such a huge impact on us, let alone these employees who were already hungry!]\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>[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!].\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>[This is sexism!! Women are not men’s accessories!! Boycott Su Chen, the inferior artist!!]\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>[Did the person above go crazy with the social justice warrior act?

Extremely realistic!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The definition of success is, in the vast majority of cases, indeed judged based on money and status!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The strong can have everything, while the weak can only watch!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And even the performer, Su Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Could not help but be infected by the atmosphere at this moment!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>A nameless anger was pent up in his heart! Burning him!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Looking at the ‘wolf pack’ below the stage, their eyes also filled with fanaticism and greed!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Su Chen was serious as never before.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>“So listen to me carefully!

The veins on Su Chen’s forehead became even more prominent!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>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!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Before the words had even finished!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>There was a roaring response of anger and cheers from below!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The atmosphere of the entire venue boiled to near its peak! It only needed a fuse! And it would explode completely!!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Countless employees had red eyes, panting heavily! Their bodies were hot! Their inner fighting spirit was burning fiercely!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>“The only thing you need to do today is pick up that phone!”\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>“Say what I taught you to say!”\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>“And then I can make you richer than most of the powerful company executives in this country!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Su Chen continued to say viciously!

Waving his clenched fists! Veins popping with anger!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>In an instant!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Su Chen’s roar ignited the atmosphere of the entire office and even the livestream room!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Volcanic eruptions of cursing and roaring sounded! The whole building seemed to be trembling because of it!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Every employee and even countless viewers had a fire pent up in their hearts! A surge of energy!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>As if under Su Chen’s roar!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Everyone had recovered their most primitive wildness and savagery!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>They wanted to viciously participate in the hunt! They wanted to greedily tear large chunks of flesh from their prey! To suck!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>They wanted to become the creatures at the top of this pyramid!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>They wanted to succeed!!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Money! Meat! Power! Enjoyment!!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>All of this was completely burning and bursting forth in everyone’s hearts!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>“Now!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>“Let’s start this damn operation!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Su Chen roared, like a general at an expedition ceremony! Waving the microphone in his hand!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>His words carried extreme majesty and incitement!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>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!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>All the employees who were excited to the point of roaring, their eyes red, upon hearing the order!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Were just like battle-hardened, well-trained soldiers!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Without any hesitation, they picked up the phones at their workstations and started dialing!.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Although the movements were not uniform, the visual impact was unparalleled!!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The wolf pack, which had been like savage beasts a second ago, with red necks and angry roars.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Instantly regained their calm after hearing the order! And threw themselves into the hunt!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The entire office fell into a tense calm!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Then!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The moment the calls connected, the noise filled the room! The voices were deafening!!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>[First Act AI Score: 93 points]\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>[Contestant Number Three’s performance has ended!]\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Amidst the scene of hundreds of employees frantically dialing to sell stocks.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The clip from The Wolf of Wall Street also came to an end.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The AI score appeared on the screen.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But no one could deny the shocking effect of Su Chen’s performance!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And this score was also a level that the vast majority of actors could only look up to!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Watching Su Chen, who had entered the 90-point range without any pressure.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Even Zhu Sanlong in the livestream room and many anti-fans who disliked Su Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Deeply understood the principle of not fighting an uphill battle under this score, and all retreated, not daring to show their faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And almost all the viewers.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Only now came back to their senses from the highly impactful scene just now.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Looking at their own fists, which they had clenched subconsciously while listening to Su Chen’s speech, and their surging hearts.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>They were even more shocked! In disbelief!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Without realizing it.... they had actually been deeply infected by Su Chen’s mobilization speech?!

For example, I am now full of motivation for my studies! I want to become the rich person Su Chen talked about!!]\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>[Indeed! This speech is indeed very motivating!]\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>[But... how does Su Chen know these things? Isn't he just an actor??]\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>[What is called professional?
