Chapter 1669: The Momentum of the Rich
Zhu Shenyou smiled coldly, "You said that, as if we are blackmailers?"
Zhu Shenyou came here not for money, but to suppress the popularity of Wanhai Plaza. The purpose was very clear. As for the compensation fee mentioned by the middle-aged man, he didn't care at all.
And this was not his ultimate goal hidden in his heart.
"Am I a person who lacks money?"
Zhu Shenyou said, waving the wallet in his hand, took out a large stack of money from it, and took out several bank cards from the wallet and shook them in front of everyone.
"I have enough money to buy this shop, do you believe it?"
The middle-aged man was so shocked by Zhu Shenyou's momentum that he dared not speak for a while. He could only stare at Zhu Shenyou blankly, not daring to make a sound.
And many of the onlookers were silent for a while. The momentum of the rich is sometimes really shocking enough to suppress everything.
"I believe it, but this clerk is really pitiful. Look how she cried. Let's forgive her when we should."
Just when everyone was silent, a low voice suddenly came from the crowd. It was from an old lady.
"Yes, it's not easy for everyone. You didn't lose anything. Let it go this time."
Perhaps what the old lady said was more pertinent, and there were several voices of support from the crowd.
If this continues, it is very likely that in the end, everyone's voices will all lean towards the poor female clerk.
Sometimes people's sympathy is scary enough. Although you are right, everyone's sympathy for the weak will sometimes lead to a reversal of the situation.
Zhu Shenyou realized this. If all the onlookers sympathized with the female clerk because of the old lady's words, then his efforts today would be in vain.
Thinking of this, Zhu Shenyou couldn't help but take a deep breath, and his mind turned quickly.
Soon, Zhu Shenyou waved his hand impatiently, signaling everyone not to speak, and then cleared his throat and spoke loudly without waiting for more voices from the crowd.
"Everyone knows that there are too many unscrupulous merchants now, and they often do it perfectly. Many people are deceived by such unscrupulous merchants. Some people may be deceived and dare not say a word in the end."
"And the incident encountered today is a living example. Who knows whether she found this scratch before? Maybe she really didn't find it. Maybe she pretended not to know after finding it and continued to sell it to other consumers at the original price. Do you think there is such a possibility?"
Zhu Shenyou successfully led people's thinking to another path, because after listening to Zhu Shenyou's words, many people nodded in agreement and cast their dissatisfied eyes on the female clerk again.
Perhaps now in the eyes of most people, this aggrieved female clerk outside is actually just a disguise.
However, since he had done something wrong, no matter how much he pretended, he would not win sympathy from everyone, but would instead arouse everyone's disgust.
"Since I have encountered this matter today, I am not asking for a sum of money as compensation as everyone thinks, but I want to expose this kind of behavior of defrauding customers and not let more customers be deceived. Do you think what I said makes sense?"
After Zhu Shenyou finished speaking, he immediately aroused the voices of the onlookers, and many people even applauded for Zhu Shenyou's words.
"That's great. We just want to crack down on this kind of behavior of defrauding customers and make the market clean!"
"Let these merchants who claim to sell famous brands but actually sell some defective products get out of Wanhai Plaza!"
"Isn't there a market supervision bureau? Everyone, hurry up and report it and check this store carefully. Maybe many of the clothes sold now are defective products."
For a time, everyone pointed their spearheads at this Armani brand store.
The female clerk was terrified and argued at the top of her lungs.
However, the crowd shouted louder and everyone was indignant. Who would care about the female clerk's explanation at this time?
This was the scene Zhu Shenyou wanted. He took out his mobile phone slowly and made a call.
"City TV station? This is Wanhai Plaza. Someone is selling defective products under the guise of selling famous brands to harm consumers..."
After the call, Zhu Shenyou hung up the phone with satisfaction and said to the crowd: "Don't worry, I have reported the situation to the TV station. The reporter will arrive soon. I believe I will give everyone a fair and satisfactory answer."
"Okay, let the reporters and the TV station expose it, so that these unscrupulous merchants who harm our consumers will have no place to survive!"
As the crowd cheered, one of the middle-aged men shouted excitedly.
The incident at the Armani brand store was soon known to the insiders of Wanhai Plaza. The security personnel who were maintaining order saw that the situation was a bit tricky, and it was useless to intervene, because this was something that happened between the merchant and the customer, and they had no way to deal with it.
Zhu Yuanfeng soon learned about this matter and hurried to the first floor.
If there is a dispute in the mall, if it is not handled properly, it is likely to affect the business of the mall and the image of the mall, so it must be handled at the first time, and it must satisfy both parties.
Zhu Yuanfeng knows this very well. If it causes a great impact, then his position as general manager may be difficult to keep.
Although Chairman Wang Zhongmao is usually serious and now focuses on the construction of commercial buildings, he still asks about the situation of the square and the commercial street from time to time.
For this promotion, Zhu Yuanfeng also prepared a plan in advance and asked Wang Zhongmao for instructions before starting the operation.
If the reputation of the mall is damaged due to some things during the promotion, then once the chairman gets angry, it will definitely be disadvantageous to him.
When Zhu Yuanfeng arrived at the Armani brand store on the first floor panting, the large number of onlookers made his head grow big.
"Why don't you disperse the crowd? What do you do for a living?!"
Zhu Yuanfeng turned around and stared at the security captain who followed him, and scolded him with great dissatisfaction.
"Boss Zhu, there are too many people. We can't persuade them to leave with just a few of us. If we persuade them too hard, it might cause more commotion. You know, they are just customers after all. They are just here to watch the fun and they haven't done anything illegal..."
The security captain was also very upset because there were too many people in the past few days. We had to deploy forces in the parking lot, the entrance, the mall, and the pedestrian street, so it was even more difficult to disperse them.
But that was not a big deal. The important thing was that there was a conflict between the customers and the merchants, and the rest were just there to watch the fun. He couldn't force the customers out for the benefit of the square, could he?
