Chapter 1371 Extreme Reaction
As Tobias bowed sincerely to the camera, the popularity of local products soared to unprecedented levels. Whether they were fans or not, everyone could feel their sincerity through the livestream.
Apart from Tobias, the applesauce factory's director and the workers shown on camera all had tear-filled eyes. It was as if they had been waiting forever for someone to finally notice them.
Orson's story was finally uncovered by the public.
It was only then that they came to realize the deep significance of the brands that had been a part of their childhood. Eating healthy food led to a happy life, and when kids were feeling down, a little sweetness could bring them joy.
Though the packaging wasn't fancy, the cost savings went into the food quality and the workers' well- being. Businessmen like Orson were few and far between nowadays.
"What kind of boss still personally goes down to the factory floor? I initially thought it was just an act, but it was obvious that no one knew Kina would show up. This livestream showed me what it truly means to respect ordinary people like us."
Many businessmen in real life remained aloof and distant. In those times, being unpretentious and sincere might have seemed absurd. That was because it wasn't something everyone could do.
Orson, however, committed to it throughout his whole life.
The Blaise family's food business was no longer the outdated, poorly packaged product that people used to sneer at as something unpresentable.
After the incident, the celebrities who had previously turned down the Blaise family regretted it so much they were sick with envy! They even thought about riding the trend on Twitter, but when they saw that Kina was the brand ambassador, they knew they didn't stand a chance.
As for those who had been waiting to see the Blaise family and Wynter fail, they were left dumbfounded. It was especially so for brands that typically worked closely with the Wray family, who were eager to hide from view right away.
However, the public was not about to let them off the hook.
"So, you're the ones who are using misleading names to pretend to be local products while covertly defaming other people's factories, aren't you?"
"I saw it. He also implied that his sparkling water would never encounter such issues."
"Refund! We demand a refund!"
Meanwhile, some people who supported those brands felt that the reaction from others was too extreme.
"I've always been drinking this brand's sparkling water. Isn't it quite good? I don't understand what the fuss is about."
"Business disputes like these are normal. Some people are just envious. The water source is imported, and if you don't drink it, we will. Stop all the fuss."
In response to such attempts at whitewashing, someone pointed out, "Using underhanded methods to maliciously defame competitors is never normal competition, but rather illegal. It's especially so when it involves businesses that deceive consumers to meet their objectives.
"Even those who are not blind can see this. The situation in Oakwood District makes it even more complicated. The underlying circumstances are definitely very intricate.
"I hope some people understand that they are currently on our Cascadia land, targeting our own brands. On what grounds do they think they can?
"Do you understand the outcome of all this? We end up consuming products made by others!
"Our own brands aren't making money, while others' are profiting immensely. If something were to happen one day, who do you think cares more about us?"
While certain matters couldn't be said directly, this person's hint was already quite obvious.
"In Cascadia, you're expected to abide by Cascadia's business rules. I won't forgive any of these brands!"
