The crowd around began to gather towards the stage, and the sound of microphone testing could be heard from time to time.
Mo Ming walked ahead, followed by the two beautiful women, Murong Lian and Su Xiuwen. With Mo Ming's stunning debut tonight, he was already an attractive figure, and the presence of the two beauties behind him created a striking scene that captured everyone's attention.
However, this time no one made any sarcastic remarks about "a toad wanting to eat swan meat," because they all knew that Mo Ming was young and wealthy, clearly possessing excellent conditions that few in attendance could compare to.
The wealthy individuals also wanted to curry favor with Mo Ming, naturally casting appreciative glances his way. The only discordant gaze came from Yang Yuan, who wore a smile but had a fierce look in his eyes.
Mo Ming secretly chuckled and disregarded it, walking over to Fu Meng. Cao Jingfan and Ye Buluo were also there. Approaching Fu Meng, he politely greeted them, saying, "Uncle, CEO Cao, Mr. Ye."
"Haha, Old Cao, Old Ye, look at this guy! At such a young age, he has achieved so much. He is one of us; aren't you envious?" Fu Meng laughed heartily.
Mo Ming, Murong Lian, Su Xiuwen, and Shang Xige all wore expressions of annoyance; how old were they to still be boasting like this!
Cao Jingfan and Ye Buluo didn't find anything strange about Fu Meng's words. They both chuckled in agreement. Ye Buluo said, "Alright then, Old Fu, I know your family is impressive. You're not getting any younger but still love to show off!"
"Old Ye, that's just how he is; even when he's old, he's still a mischievous child!" Cao Jingfan said with a smile. "Alright then, let's not talk too much; Young Master Yang is here to urge us."
Not long after Cao Jingfan spoke, everyone saw Yang Yuan approaching with a smile on his face. "Ladies and gentlemen, the ribbon-cutting ceremony is about to begin. Please follow me up."
"Hehe, since Young Master Yang has spoken, how can we not go?" Ye Buluo laughed. "Alright everyone, let's stop chatting and get on with today's business."
In response to this, Mo Ming remained silent and indifferent. The participants in the ribbon-cutting followed Yang Yuan onto the stage. He also went up and stood next to Murong Lian while Yang Yuan squeezed in on her other side.
Mo Ming was truly amazed by this shameless act. Although Murong Lian didn't particularly like Yang Yuan, she didn't express her displeasure too openly due to being on stage. Unaware of her feelings, Yang Yuan leaned closer and whispered in her ear, "Miss Murong, you look beautiful today."
"Thank you," Murong Lian replied lightly.
Standing on the other side, Mo Ming offered a "kind" reminder: "Young Master Yang, the ribbon-cutting is about to start; perhaps it's best not to talk too much now and save it for after we get off stage."
Just as Yang Yuan was about to respond, the host of the ribbon-cutting event began speaking. The host was a man with a decent voice.
"Thank you all for taking the time out of your busy schedules to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony for our Ultimate Electronics Company Nanhua City Branch. We are very honored to have with us the Mayor of our city, Mayor Fu, Chairman Chen from Phoenix Grand Hotel, our largest shareholder Mr. Mo, CEO Cao from Cao's Real Estate, and Mr. Ye from the Ye Family."
After a pause, the host smiled broadly and said, "Of course, we also invited two beautiful ladies to join us today. They are the popular star Miss Su and the only daughter of Mr. Murong Wei from Murong Group, Miss Murong. Let's give them a warm welcome!"
Applause erupted.
The host continued, "The ribbon-cutting ceremony for Ultimate Electronics Company Nanhua City Branch is about to begin. We invite our guests and Young Master Yang to cut the ribbon that symbolizes a prosperous future!"
As soon as the host finished speaking, two attractive ribbon holders unfurled and straightened the red satin ribbon. Soon after, several well-dressed tray bearers approached the stage with trays holding beautifully decorated scissors, presenting one to each guest before exiting from the other side.
"Let’s start cutting the ribbon!"
Upon hearing this, Mo Ming and the others immediately used their scissors to cut through the ribbon. After they finished, another round of enthusiastic applause filled the air as the tray bearers returned to collect the scissors.
Click...
As cameras clicked away in the audience, Mo Ming suddenly had an idea. He squeezed between Murong Lian and Young Master Yang with a smile and said, "I feel very honored. I didn't expect that just after becoming a major shareholder, I would get to participate in Young Master Yang's Branch's Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony. It’s quite exciting to think about."
Saying this, Mo Ming reached out and shook Young Master Yang's hand vigorously.
Young Master Yang was completely puzzled by what Mo Ming was trying to do. However, when the flash went off, he couldn't help but grimace slightly, feeling regretful about inviting Mr. Williams Mo earlier. If he had known that Mo Ming was him, he would never have extended that invitation!
Despite his inner turmoil, Young Master Yang maintained a smile on his face as he posed for a photo with Mo Ming. At that moment, he felt his dignity severely compromised.
Mo Ming noticed Young Master Yang's forced smile and couldn't help but chuckle inwardly.
"Mr. Williams Mo, you have it wrong; it should be me who feels honored. Having you here is a privilege for our Ultimate Electronics Company," Young Master Yang said with a strained smile while trying to appear gentlemanly. "We also have a charity gala coming up, and I hope Mr. Williams Mo can contribute to this charitable cause."
Mo Ming smirked slightly and replied nonchalantly, "Of course! My favorite thing is doing charity work."
"That's good." Yang Yuan nodded slightly, then took the microphone and said, "Everyone, the ribbon-cutting ceremony has concluded. Next, we will move on to our charitable event, which is our charity gala! Alright, all the seats have been arranged, please take your places."
Yang Yuan handed the microphone to someone in the audience, turned to face Fu Meng, and said, "Thank you all for attending the ribbon-cutting ceremony for Branch. Please take your seats; I have specially arranged a few spots for you."
After the ribbon-cutting, it was time for the charity fundraising event.
The attendees took their seats as planned. According to the original arrangement, Mo Ming and the other guests of honor were supposed to sit in the VIP section. Looking at the row of lavishly decorated seats separated from the crowd, Mo Ming smiled wryly and said, "You all go ahead and sit there. I’m not used to that kind of seat. Young Master Yang, I’ll just sit in the regular section."
Yang Yuan's mouth twitched slightly as he forced a smile and said, "I didn't consider this properly. Since that's the case, I apologize to Mr. Williams Mo. Everyone, please take your seats."
"Actually, I'm not used to it either, Mo Ming. I'll join you in the regular section," Su Xiuwen smiled at Yang Yuan and then turned to Murong Lian, saying, "Lian Lian, do you want to come with me?"
"Sure." Murong Lian admired Su Xiuwen's cleverness and agreed without hesitation.
...
Soon after, Fu Meng and others also expressed their desire not to separate from the crowd and followed Mo Ming to sit in the regular section. Originally, Mo Ming had no other intentions, but this caused Yang Yuan's face to turn pale; his mouth couldn't help but twitch a few times. It was an unexpected outcome.
The group of guests did not occupy the VIP seats, creating a rather peculiar scene where the lavishly decorated VIP section served no practical purpose and was merely a decorative element!
This made Yang Yuan's mouth twitch again; Mo Ming was being quite disrespectful. This was akin to giving him a slap in the face. However, he dared not express his anger since offending Mo Ming meant offending all the prominent figures in Nanhua City.
Once everyone was seated, the charity fundraising event began. The host gracefully stepped onto the stage; she was a young lady with a sweet appearance and an average build that appeared somewhat slender but had long and fair legs.
When she spoke, her voice was also sweet—pleasant without being overly delicate—making it quite comfortable to listen to.
"Good evening to all our esteemed guests. Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend the gala celebrating the establishment of Ultimate Electronics Company's Nanhua Branch." The host clapped her hands and continued, "Now let’s welcome Yang Yuan, Young Master Yang, to come up and say a few words."
Then Yang Yuan walked up to the stage with elegant steps, holding the microphone while facing everyone with a calm smile as he tested it out.
"Ah... I appreciate everyone's presence, and I am truly grateful," Yang Yuan said with a slight smile. "I believe many of you may not know that in remote areas today, there are still countless children who yearn for knowledge but cannot attain it. Therefore, we at Ultimate Electronics Company would like to take this opportunity to raise funds to establish the Hope Scholarship Foundation, aimed at helping impoverished children gain access to education."
"I, Ultimate Electronics Company, am willing to take the lead by donating three hundred million Renminbi to this foundation, hoping to help those children acquire the knowledge they desire!" Yang Yuan spoke passionately. "I also hope everyone will generously contribute for the future of these children; every little bit helps!"
Immediately, someone expressed, "I came from those mountain valleys and understand the plight of such places very well. Now that I have achieved success, I cannot forget my roots. I am willing to donate eighty million Renminbi for those children!"
Yang Yuan's smile widened a bit more. "Excellent! He General has donated eighty million; that is truly generous. Is there anyone else willing to help these unfortunate children?"
"My business isn't large, and I don't have much money, so I'll donate fifty million Renminbi!"
...
Many people began to make donations, with amounts varying widely; however, the lowest was still thirty million Renminbi. As a local tycoon, Ye Buluo had been quiet for a long time but finally spoke up: "Then I will follow Young Master Yang and donate three hundred million as well!"
"Truly worthy of Chairman Ye; your generosity is commendable. Good deeds are rewarded, and kindness will always be blessed by God. On behalf of the children, I thank you!" Yang Yuan was quite eloquent and continued, "Is there anyone else who would like to contribute more?"
Since Ye Buluo had stepped forward, Cao Jingfan naturally did not want to fall behind and quickly stated: "Young Master Yang and Chairman Ye have both donated three hundred million; I must at least keep pace with them. I will also donate three hundred million."
"Another three hundred million! This is wonderful; the hope for the children is growing stronger! Is there anyone else willing to donate more?" Yang Yuan scanned the crowd again and finally focused on Mo Ming, a strange smile appearing on his lips as he asked, "Mr. Mo, how much hope do you wish to give the children?"
