Chen Xuan’s tough and domineering display left the international tycoons present looking at him in a new light. Previously, their impression of the Chinese was that they were humble, low-key, and avoided trouble. A typical example was Cai Ping; although he was a tycoon of equal status to them, he always maintained a sense of humility.
This young man, Chen Xuan, had completely overturned their perception. He showed these Southeast Asian tycoons that the Chinese were not just people who blindly endured and retreated. In their eyes, Chen Xuan’s status was far beneath that of Pan Xun and Sa Lin, yet when facing such high-ranking figures, Chen Xuan did not shrink back at all. On the contrary, he taught them a harsh lesson—even kicking Sa Lin to his knees. It was truly formidable.
Consequently, after Sa Lin and Pan Xun departed, the Southeast Asian tycoons present came over to reintroduce themselves to Chen Xuan, expressing their deep admiration. Cai Ping and Shen Binglan were quite surprised by the tycoons’ reactions, but Chen Xuan was not surprised at all. As the saying goes, "a horse is ridden by the weak, and a person is bullied by the kind"—this remains a truth in any era. Especially abroad, where Chinese people are often looked down upon and treated differently, showing weakness or blindly enduring only leads to being completely underestimated. In contrast, a proud and tough Chinese person like Chen Xuan was more likely to earn the respect of foreigners.
