Mr. Lu, don't be arrogant.

After grandma was buried, strange things happened frequently in the Mu family.

Mu Yongnian made a mistake at work and was criticized by his superiors; Mu Mian got into a fight and was sent to the police station; Liu Cuiying broke her leg, then got into an argument with her neighbors, offending everyone in her home and shop; then Mu Tong was caught by Liu Cuiying after being drunk and soliciting prostitution...

Except for the youngest Muzhu, the Mu family had not had a single happy event for more than a month. The family was in chaos and no one had the energy to cause trouble to Mu Wanying and Mu Wanxin.

In order to preserve the last trace of her grandmother, Mu Wanying used the red envelope given by her father to buy the house where they lived in Xingfu Xinju.

It’s the summer solstice now, and the morning light in the deep sea is getting brighter.

Not only has the staff expanded several times, but the business has also expanded a lot.

But Mu Wanying and Ren Zichen were not satisfied with this. They not only expanded their business and opened up the market more drastically, but also boldly started investing.

Almost without prior agreement, they all set their sights on the same project: animation and film and television production.

At the shareholders' meeting, when Mu Wanying and Ren Zichen tacitly expressed their intention to invest in Feng Yuannian's company, Shen Yue, Mrs. Feng, was the first to raise her hand.

"Wanying, Zichen, do you want to reconsider? Our company has been developing too rapidly lately. We're taking big steps and the risks are too high!"

Mu Wanying supported her forehead with one hand and did not express her opinion immediately.

Ren Zichen gently twirled the pen in his hand. "I know, but no business is without risk. And Brother Feng is your husband, Sister Yue, and he's also an old acquaintance of mine, so we can trust him. The investment risk in IP is indeed high, but it's also a big cake. As long as the product is well made, the return is inevitable. If we're lucky, we can make a fortune by creating an IP! So I decided to invest!"

"Zi Chen, what you said is correct, but after so long, how many IPs can we create? I think we should just do our job well in advertising design and take steady steps."

Liu Lu spoke.

Lan Yuke always stood on Ren Zichen's side. "I think Wanying and Sister Zichen's proposal is a good one. In the past year, Wanying has led us from the brink of extinction to where we are now. This is enough to show her vision and ability."

"But……"

Liu Lu just spoke when Lan Yuke interrupted her again.

"Sister Lu, after these few months of hard work, we have some extra money in our account, which we can use to do something else.

Our main business is still there. Even if we lose all of this, it’s just a small loss of money. As long as we don’t give up our main business, it won’t hurt our foundation.”

"But if we invest all this money into our core business, our business will be more stable and we won't have to worry about any storms we encounter."

Shen Yue was still worried and moved forward boldly.

Song Yufei nodded. "I think what Sister Yue and Sister Lu said makes sense, but I'm more inclined to agree with Sister Zichen and Wanying."

"Yufei!"

"Sister Yue, please listen to me first." Song Yufei smiled politely at Shen Yue. "It's good for us to stick to our duties, but the market is constantly changing, and we may not always be able to grasp the direction of the wind. But if we don't even have the spirit of adventure, how can we chase the market?"

"That makes sense, but I still think it's risky. It's not easy for us to get from the dead end last year to where we are now. Zichen and I are both getting pregnant again soon, and we'll need to take time off for delivery. How we manage these things then will be risky!"

Shen Yue expressed his concerns.

She has always been a steady person.

Although she also wants to see the ups and downs of life and hopes that her husband Feng Yuannian's company can reach new heights, she still feels uneasy after careful consideration.

After thinking it over, she turned her gaze to the silent host, Mu Wanying, and said, "Wanying, you make the decision. We will listen to you. Whether it's advancing or retreating, we will listen to you!"

The others nodded in agreement.

Mu Wanying nodded, but didn't rush to speak. Instead, she turned to Feng Yannan slowly, "Where's Yannan? Why don't you say a word?"

"Of course I agree! We started out with nothing, and it's only because of our willingness to gamble, take risks, and fight that we're where we are today."

Feng Yannan glanced at the sisters around her one by one.

"Our future may not be smooth sailing. Even if we stay at home, we might as well get hit by a falling rock. It's better to go out and explore the world!"

"Well said! We originally had nothing, so why wouldn't we dare to fight? So my opinion is to invest! We should not only invest in Brother Yuannian's company, but also invest in Xi Dianning's and others' companies when we have more money in the future. As long as there is investment value, we should go for it and invest!"

Mu Wanying stood up and applauded Feng Yannan.

"Sisters, we've been through a lot in the past year, both outside and at home. I won't talk about anything else, I'll just talk about what we sisters have experienced."

She slowly walked over to Shen Yue and placed her hand on his shoulder. "When I first met Sister Yue, she looked very haggard. Her face was completely devoid of light, as if drained of all life by time. But what about now? Who wouldn't envy Sister Yue?"

Shen Yue raised his hand, placed it on the back of Mu Wanying's hand and patted it gently.

Mu Wan greeted her a few times, then walked to Ren Zichen on the other side, and also put her hand on Ren Zichen's shoulder and patted him gently a few times.

"I was shocked when I first heard about Sister Zichen. I didn't know there were such pitiful women and such hateful men in the world."

When Ren Zichen heard the voice, his eyes turned slightly red.

She also raised her hand and patted the back of Mu Wanying's hand.

Mu Wan greeted her a few times and walked to her seat, but did not sit down.

She took a deep breath and said, “Among those of us sitting here, except Yan Nan who was well protected by his brother, everyone else has experienced their own hardships to a greater or lesser extent.

Sister Yue was subjected to PUA by her mother-in-law, Sister Lu was subjected to domestic violence, Sister Zichen couldn't choose her own life, Keke's mother was ruthlessly abandoned, and there was also Yufei and me...

I'm not afraid to tell you that my adoptive mother, a gentle middle school teacher, a woman who should have been teaching and educating people at the podium, took her own life because of so-called family and so-called responsibilities. She resolutely jumped from a tall building and ended her young life in a hurry. Why?

Mu Wanying's voice rose.

The meeting room suddenly became quiet.

No one said another word.

Mu Wanying extended two fingers and pointed at her forehead, "Because of this place! Because of thought! Because of awareness! Because of power! And more importantly, because of the right to speak!"

"Wanying..."

"We have too little say, and our mothers' generation had an even lower level of awareness. They've lived their entire lives for others."

Mu Wanying made a summary.

She said: "They don't know how to fight for their own power and interests, but are accustomed to forcing the shackles of the secular world upon themselves. When they encounter problems, they don't think about how to solve the problems or how to get out of the mud. Instead, they habitually think about how to obey, submit, and avoid losing face!"

Mu Wanying became excited.

"Precisely because of this, precisely because of their cowardice and uncivilized nature, those of us who are lucky enough to be standing on the wave must work harder and be bolder.

We need to venture forth, we need to strive, we need to strive to stand on the crest of the wave, to let more people see that women can actually live this way! We need to let them know that women can actually be ambitious too!

Her words successfully resonated with the sisters.

The sisters all stood up and looked at her as if she were a shining star.

Mu Wanying blinked slightly and continued, "Besides this, the higher we stand, the easier it is for our voices to be heard. As we gain more and more power, our appeals will be more easily heard!"
