They completely ignored Zhang Tianyi and turned their anger towards Zhao Fangxu, who was standing to the side.

"Mr. Zhao!"

Ron struck first, his massive frame closing in on Zhao Fangxu, his tone aggressive:

We need a reasonable explanation!

"As the host country, is this how NaDuTong shows its sincerity by displaying such a death-threatening banner?!"

Mrs. Lilia also snorted coldly:

"If your China wants to demonstrate its military strength in this way, then we will never accept such an insult!"

"I don't see any need to continue this dinner tonight!"

More than a dozen overseas giants are putting pressure on Zhao Fangxu at the same time!

This overwhelming barrage of questions and anger immediately made the chairman of NaDuTong feel his scalp tingle!

Chapter 234 What the hell?! Even if they're far away, they'll still be "pigs"! They shamelessly fooled the foreigners!

In the center of the banquet hall, the atmosphere plummeted to freezing point.

A dozen or so extraordinary individuals from all over the world surrounded Zhao Fangxu like a pack of ferocious beasts whose tails had been stepped on.

That invisible sense of oppression woven together into a dense net.

Zhao Fangxu stood in the center of the encirclement, his chubby face still smiling, but cold sweat was seeping out.

It's so hard for him!

These foreigners are usually very powerful and influential in their own territories.

Now that they've joined forces to launch an attack, their aggressive momentum is so strong it could practically devour someone alive!

These two were the first to speak.

Other overseas representatives echoed this sentiment.

English, Russian, and Japanese mingled together, buzzing and exploding in Zhao Fangxu's ears.

Zhao Fangxu quickly pulled a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped his face haphazardly.

His mind was racing.

How can this be resolved?

How the hell can this be resolved?!

That calligraphy was hanging on the wall, white background with black characters, exuding a murderous aura; even a fool could tell what it meant!

Zhao Fangxu took a deep breath, cleared his throat, and was just about to unleash his decades-long "Tai Chi Divine Skill." He needed to first smooth things over and stabilize the situation!

however.

A hand suddenly landed on his shoulder.

Zhao Fangxu was taken aback.

Before he could react, he was pushed behind him.

"Alright, Xiao Zhao, wipe your sweat, the glare is blinding me."

Zhang Tianyi slowly walked out from behind Zhao Fangxu, holding the half-empty glass of champagne in one hand.

He didn't even glance at the menacing foreign tycoons, but instead turned his head and gestured with his chin toward Zhang Chulan behind him.

"Chu Lan."

Zhang Tianyi gently swirled the wine in his glass, his tone revealing a hint of disappointment and frustration:

“Look at these international friends. They’ve come all this way, but they don’t even understand our thousands of years of traditional Chinese culture. They’re just making a fuss here.”

"Go and give them a proper cultural education. Otherwise, they might go back and say we didn't treat them well, that we didn't even have a translator."

Zhang Chulan's eyes lit up immediately upon hearing this.

what is this?

This is the Second Master personally handing over the stage for arranging the cup to him!

"Alright! You can hold it up, sir!"

Zhang Chulan cleared his throat, pulled his suit tie to the center, and instantly completed a seamless switch in demeanor.

He strode up to the group of foreign representatives.

He spread his hands, his face filled with heartache.

"Fellow countrymen! Fellow international friends!"

Zhang Chulan's loud voice, coupled with his expressive acting, immediately drew everyone's attention.

"A misunderstanding! A huge misunderstanding!"

He pointed a finger sharply at Ivan, who was standing to the side with a handprint on his face:

"Uncle Ivan, I beg you! If your Chinese isn't up to par, you should hurry up and enroll in a refresher course to catch up!"

Stop spouting off your half-baked knowledge and making these kinds of international jokes that damage international friendships!

Ivanov was so enraged by his pointing finger that he almost flew to the heavens on the spot:

"What did you say?! I am fluent in eight languages ​​and have studied Eastern culture for decades! How dare you, a mere blond brat, question my translation?!"

"I'm questioning you!"

Zhang Chulan was not intimidated at all and walked directly to the huge scroll.

Like a tour guide, he patted it twice heavily with his hand.

He turned to look at the foreign representatives who were full of suspicion.

"Distinguished guests! Please take a close look at this calligraphy!"

"'If friends come from afar, even if they are far away, we will surely punish them!'"

Zhang Chulan's gaze was incredibly sincere, even carrying a hint of grievance:

“In our ancient Chinese language, the character ‘诛’ (zhū) not only means to kill, but in certain contexts, it is also a phonetic loan character!”

"What does it mean? It means 'pig'! That fat, white pig!"

The foreigners in the audience: ???

Zhang Chulan pounded his chest in anguish and continued his rambling:

"The real meaning of this sentence is: Our friends have traveled from all over the world to see us. No matter how far away they are, we must slaughter pigs and sheep and treat them to the most sumptuous feast!"

"..."

The foreign representatives looked at each other, their faces, which had been filled with anger, now showing complete confusion.

Execute...the traitor?

Will they slaughter pigs and sheep to entertain us?

This sounds...like...perfectly in line with the logic of hospitality?!

"Then...what about the horizontal scroll?"

Ivanov was so angry his lips were trembling, and he pointed at the line of text at the top and roared:

"Winning people over with virtue! And that provocative smile! How do you explain that?!"

"That makes it much easier to explain!"

Zhang Chulan pointed to the painted smiling face and, without batting an eye, began to elevate the theme:

"Our advisor is not only highly skilled, but also a person with extremely high moral character!"

Winning people over with virtue is how we demonstrate the tolerance and magnanimity of the extraordinary people of China to the world!

"As for that smiley face..."

Zhang Chulan made a "you guys are so ignorant" expression:

"This is to align with international standards! These are called emoticons!"

This is a friendly symbol that transcends language barriers in the internet age! It represents our advisor's heartfelt welcome and joy to everyone!

As Zhang Chulan finished speaking, two crocodile tears even welled up in the corners of his eyes.

He pointed to Zhang Tianyi, who was drinking champagne beside him, his voice choked with emotion:

"You all have no idea! My advisor practiced calligraphy in his study for three days and three nights straight! He was afraid of failing you all by not writing it well!"

"And what happened? It was misinterpreted by some people with ulterior motives as a death threat!"

"This is absolutely disheartening! Utterly disheartening!"

This tearful, logically sound, and erudite rambling left everyone present completely dumbfounded.

Ron blinked his blue eyes, scratched his head, and looked at Lilia beside him:

"Ms. Lilia...in Eastern cultures...pig is indeed a main dish, isn't it?"

Mrs. Lilia was also somewhat bewildered.

Although she has a fiery temper, no one is a fool.

Upon closer reflection, it was an official reception banquet hosted by a reputable company like All-Tong. How could they possibly do something as brainless as tricking representatives from various countries into coming here to humiliate them?

This doesn't align with basic logic in international relations at all!

Just as these foreign representatives began to develop serious self-doubt.

Zhao Fangxu, who had been hiding in the back, was an extremely shrewd person.

That step was delivered so damn perfectly!

As expected of Zhang Chulan!

This shameless nonsense can be a lifesaver in a critical moment!

"Cough cough!"
