Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk!

Chapter 683: Chapter 683: Soul Mates
 

At the press conference.

Many corporate representatives had arrived.

After all, Leonardo and Kate Winslet’s advertisement was too popular.

Many businesses and distributors had spotted the opportunity.

If on-site sales were promising, they would negotiate cooperation with YTXC.

Xu Yang and his three companions stayed backstage, avoiding the spotlight, leaving the conference to the General Manager, Charles, to handle.

However, they watched the live broadcast backstage.

Everything happening on the scene was under their watchful eyes.

“That guy actually showed up?” Liu Qiangxi glared at the screen, fixated.

“Mr. Liu, who are you talking about?” Xu Yang asked.

“That guy.” Liu Qiangxi pointed at the screen, referring to Tulls, and said through gritted teeth, “He is the heir to the Brook Family, Tulls. On the plane here, didn’t you ask me about my trouble? It was he who invited me to dinner and set me up with that woman!”

“It’s him!”

Xu Yang and the other two turned their gaze to Tulls on the screen.

Wang Xiaocong said, “Mr. Liu, from the look on your face, you seem to wish you could kill him.”

Liu Qiangxi replied, “Isn’t that obvious?”

Xu Yang said, “Thinking you could take him down is impossible, let alone kill him. Even if we did something to him, we’d likely be in a lot of trouble.”

Ma Huateng patted Liu Qiangxi on the shoulder, “Old Liu, don’t get agitated. That’s all in the past. We should focus on this event and use it as a springboard to get our company into the beautiful country.”

Liu Qiangxi took a deep breath, “You’re right, seeing him did make me lose my composure for a moment.”

Xu Yang said, “Mr. Liu, you can’t be blamed. If I encountered someone who had framed me, I would react even more fiercely than you.”

Wang Xiaocong nodded in agreement, “Right, you managed to control yourself. If it were me, I wouldn’t have been able to restrain myself and probably would have gone out there to deal with him on the spot.”

…

The press conference began.

Charles, the General Manager of YTXC Company, took to the stage.

There was no host; Charles was the host.

If Charles couldn’t serve as a host, he wouldn’t have kept his job.

In today’s corporate climate, it’s commonplace for the big bosses to host new product launches.

No one knows their product better than they do.

Some entrepreneurs even endorse their company’s products, saving the cost of hiring celebrities for advertisements.

“Hello everyone, I am Charles, the General Manager of YTXC,” Charles introduced himself and continued, “I am very happy to see so many people attending our new product launch today. I believe you all came after seeing the advertisement with Leonardo and Kate Winslet, right?”

His remark instantly stirred up laughter.

“If it weren’t for Leonardo and Kate Winslet appearing in your company’s advertisement, who would pay attention to your company?”

“I must say, getting Leonardo and Kate Winslet for your advertisement was a smart move.”

“If your company’s product is as good as what the advertisement claims, I’ll buy it.”

“Will Leonardo and Kate Winslet be coming to the event? It would be even better if you could get them here.”

“Right, did you invite them over?”

…

Charles smiled and said, “I heard someone asking if Leonardo and Kate Winslet are here. I’m a fan of theirs too, and I wish they could come. Unfortunately, both great actors are busy and don’t have the time to come over.”

The truth was, Leonardo and Kate Winslet were not busy; they were too embarrassed to come.

The advertisement had gone viral globally, and for the past few days, Leonardo and Kate Winslet had not dared to leave their homes, fearing ridicule.

There was no helping it; in people’s eyes, an artificial intelligence companion was synonymous with an adult product advertisement.

If you can hide, just hide and wait out this storm.

Though YTXC Corporation had planned to spend a lot of money inviting the two to the launch event, the offer they made was far from low.

But there was no way they dared to show up.

They feared that if they came, they would be torn apart by the movie fans.

This was no joke.

Looking at the internet, half the fans supported them while the other half did not.

The unsupportive fans, in a moment of impulsiveness, were capable of doing anything.

For their personal safety, they had no choice but to painfully reject YTXC Corporation’s lucrative invitation.

Hearing that Leonardo and Kate Winslet wouldn’t come, the audience couldn’t help feeling a bit disappointed.

Many of the attendees were there, hoping to see Leonardo and Kate Winslet in person.

Especially to see Leonardo.

After all, Leonardo had always been a superstar who kept a low profile and rarely made public appearances.

As for Kate Winslet, she was already getting on in years, her figure had changed, and despite once being incredibly stunning, she could not stop the ravages of time, so people’s desire to see her was not that strong.

“Ah, I thought I would be able to see Leonardo.”

“If Leonardo had come, this launch would have been perfect.”

“They said he won’t come, let’s not get our hopes up.”

…

Charles continued, “It doesn’t matter that they didn’t come, this is a product launch, the product is the star, and I believe that everyone still wants to see the product in person, to see if it is really like what the advertisement shows. I can assure everyone that it definitely is as depicted in the ads because we’ve incorporated lots of new technologies into this artificial intelligence companion, which we have named ‘Bachelors’ Blessing’.”

Ha ha ha!

At these words, everyone at the event laughed.

The smiles on some people’s faces were quite lecherous.

Quite a few had come for the artificial intelligence’s solution to physiological needs, treating the product as just a simple adult toy.

As for the advertised love, that was all nonsense, who would believe that?

“I know what many of you are thinking, but the claim in the advertisement, that it gives you love, is not just a hollow promise.”

“Physiological needs can definitely be met, and so can psychological needs, with the latter being the primary focus.”

“Many people, for various reasons, can’t grow old with their partners and have to watch their other half leave them, ending up dying alone in loneliness.”

“Just think about it, an old person waiting for death alone in a nursing home, that’s a really desolate scene.”

“Our artificial intelligence companion can solve this problem.”

“It’s not just about solving bachelors’ physical issues, but more importantly, it addresses the psychological ones. It is a companion with a soul, one that can be with everyone until the end of their lives!”

Charles’s words completely shook the audience.

What people noticed in the advertisement was the adult toy aspect, focusing on solving the physiological needs of single men and women.

As for love, they hardly believed in it.

And the idea of a soulmate to accompany one to old age was something they hadn’t even considered.

Now that Charles had mentioned this aspect, people realized that YTXC Company’s artificial intelligence companion was far more complex than they had thought.

“When you think about it, it really is like that!”

“No matter what that guy says, the part about solving physiological needs still catches my attention the most.”

“I never wanted to get married and I’m worried about elderly care. I’ve heard many old people in nursing homes are mistreated. With this AI companion, I won’t have to worry about getting old anymore.”

“With this AI companion, I bet the global birth rate is going to plummet.”

“Anyway, no matter what others do, I’m not looking for a girlfriend anymore. Having a girlfriend is too time-consuming and expensive.”
