Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After all, Shawn had traveled back from the future.
He was even the vice president of a media company.
Naturally, he knew all the tricks of the media world.
In this society that had yet to evolve, everyone was moved greatly by Shawn’s heartwarming performance.
Shawn’s “Atonement” had already spread around the world before it was even released.
The craze was most intense in New York City!
After the interview, Shawn and Nina stayed together for a while before she left.
Now was still not the time to go after her, he still needed Nina to help him advertise.
This was not the time to let his desires control his actions.
Time waits for no man.
Soon, the matter regarding Shawn’s was perfectly resolved in another way.
All the reporters who had come to interview him left quickly.
They could not help but act fast because such a huge piece of news could definitely become a hot topic.
Whoever published it first would gain the initiative.
Thus, on the same day, all the major newspapers released the news report.
‘The pinnacle of American businessmen. Repaying enmity with kindness, the heroic deed of Shawn.’
‘The greatest American businessman, Shawn, has a heart bigger than the ocean itself.’
‘Is this a true American businessman?’
‘8 billion people around the world have gone crazy over him. This American businessman is too awesome.’
‘Oh God, I didn’t expect this to be true. There really are businessmen who don’t prioritize profits.’
‘The legendary story of Shawn, the noble businessman who shocked Buffett himself.’
…
As soon as the news was released, everyone was shocked by what Shawn had experienced.
There were too many businessmen in this era, and their unscrupulous image had long been etched in everyone’s mind.
Everyone’s first reaction was disbelief when they saw this.
It could not be helped. In the eyes of the people, businessmen were equivalent to money sucking machines.
On the other hand, Shawn was the exact opposite. Not only was he not earning money, he even repaid those who betrayed him with virtue. This kind of behavior that challenged everyone’s common sense shocked everyone.
“I didn’t expect such a great businessman to exist in this world!”
“America really is a powerful country, this is why they’re stronger.”
“This is everyone’s role model! @Buffett @Zuckerberg”
“Could it be fake? After all, Raul was a precedent. News nowadays are all sensational!”
“How can that be fake? I can tell at a glance that you haven’t seen the live broadcast from the Soro Times.”
“That’s right. I don’t think I can do what Shawn did myself. He’s too outstanding!”
“I really envy the residents of that place for meeting such a good person. If it weren’t for Shawn, they would have been done for!”
…
All the newspapers did not wait for the buzz to die down. Soon, they wrote about Shawn’s idea of creating the brand “Atonement”.
Everyone was shocked by this revolutionary idea.
“Pfft, a lot of purslane have sand in them. I hope this newly established brand can solve this problem.”
“I have money, but I’m very worried about the quality of the ingredients. This brand is not bad, and it was founded by Shawn for this reason. I’ll definitely support it!”
“That’s right. It’s exactly as Shawn said. Consumers are the priority, no business should try to deceive them. I’m looking forward to seeing Shawn’s brand.”
“I’ve already blacklisted the grocer in my neighborhood. Everything they sell is bitter. I grabbed the boss’s collar and showed him what a businessman should be.”
“I don’t care about anything else. May I ask when Shawn’s brand will be listed?”
“My relative also suffered a loss because of Raul. If it wasn’t for Shawn, he would be finished. Let’s not talk about it anymore. When Shawn’s brand is out, I will definitely spend money to support it!”
…
But not everyone was optimistic about Shawn’s brand.
Especially those who were competing with him.
Shawn was extremely popular. Once his product was released, it would definitely sweep the entire New York City.
No one wanted to see this scene.
Kevin, New York’s largest vegetable supplier, was one of them.
As one of the people working with the mastermind, he was the beneficiary of this purslane craze.
He certainly did not want Shawn in the New York market.
Hence, he tweeted, “The changes of the times are not spoken with words. Shawn doesn’t have the relevant qualifications. He can fool the average person, but to the insiders of the industry, he’s just trying to make a big deal out of it. I hope everyone can keep their eyes open.”
Gwyneth Paltrow forwarded the tweet and added: “We should believe in the relevant authorities, which is why they exist in the first place. They are the ones who provide the fresh vegetables we can eat, not some shameless businessman who is using his slogan to destroy the existing market.”
The New York Times quickly responded under the direction of some people.
A show about Shawn’s ideology was broadcast on the New York Times television station.
They invited the most renowned purslane research expert in New York, Vic.
They also invited Kevin, the biggest vegetable distributor in New York.
The show took advantage of Shawn’s popularity, so it attracted a lot of people.
Many people wanted to know if Shawn could really do it.
The show started and the host asked them to sit down.
The host asked: “Guys, do you really think what Shawn said can be implemented?”
Kevin shook his head: “No way. The cost is simply too high. Shawn should not use such a plan if he doesn’t want to lose money.”
“That’s right. I agree with Kevin. With the current growth rate of purslane, using the farm model will only increase the cost. Also, Shawn is using cold-chain transport, which will increase the cost to a great extent.” Vic shook his head and said.
The host continued to ask: “So what you’re saying is that Shawn will definitely fail?”
Kevin shook his head and said, “That’s right. If that’s what he wants, perhaps the consumers will say that they support him online, but in reality, it’s impossible. After all, price is the most important factor that consumers care about.”
He was the largest vegetable supplier in New York City. No one knew better than him.
“Let me add something.” Vic interrupted: “There are certain requirements to grow purslane in a farm, while currently, New York has yet to completely digest the purslane that was originally grown in the wild. Therefore, the cost of farming it will be very high. Even if Shawn can succeed and show some effect, others can copy him perfectly to achieve the same success. Therefore, when Shawn came up with this idea, it had already failed completely!”
…
With the two big shots leading the discussion in the New York Times, the brand of Atonement that Shawn made became even more vague and uncertain.
Jeffrey had called several times to show his concern.
However, Shawn had already seen through everything, so he was not in a hurry.
After all, he was basically stealing business from these big shots.
These reactions are inevitable.
If not, Shawn would be worried that there were more conspiracies against him!
