Chapter: 1220
The attendees immediately voiced their concerns. They just couldn�t accept the fact that this woman, who they looked down upon, could possess this much power in their industry. They were convinced that it was all a grave mistake, or that KCL Group was playing a prank on them.
Seraphina was also throwing a temper tantrum in the meeting room, and was trying to barge in to confront Renee. Her rage seemed to have consumed all of her rationality, and her lovely image from before was no more.
�Let me in! If you don�t, my family will hear about this!� However, no matter how much she protested now, she and her entire family had already been ridiculed live on television.
Facing the crowd�s pressure once again, Frederick explained hastily, �Please calm down, everyone. Miss Everheart really is the newest chairman of KCL Group, and the one who invented the G6 chip. She was able to become the biggest shareholder in KCL through her own efforts, and has single-handedly pushed the entire industry forward by nearly a decade. It definitely isn�t a stretch to call her our hero, so please, respect and support her!�
Despite this, Frederick�s words were still unable to convince the group of elderly men.
�Cut the crap! This woman must�ve manipulated her way into this position! KCL Group is definitely corrupted, and our association will never be united! We should vote on whether we should allow this woman to be a part of this conference!�
�Exactly, we have to! Every member of the conference carries an important responsibility in our industry � not just anyone can join our cause!�
The people were quite agitated, and their fierce attitudes made it seem like Renee was a witch they wanted to burn at the stake.
It was basically a typical showcase of sexism and age discrimination; they just refused to believe that a young woman like her would ever possess such skill and knowledge, let alone the right to obtain a higher status than themselves.
�This isn�t quite right though. The new chairman of KCL Group should naturally be a part of the conference. It would be unfair to Miss Everheart if we were to change the rules�� Frederick protested, clearly in a difficult position.
He genuinely admired Renee. In his opinion, the woman was an absolute prodigy in technology, and was clearly much more knowledgeable than these old men who loved flaunting their wealth and status. It would be unjust for them to doubt her just because of her gender and age�
Just as the atmosphere was becoming tense, Stefan raised his hand calmly. �I�m fine with her joining.�
Everyone turned to look at Stefan, falling silent right away. They didn�t dare to utter a single sound.
Renee stared at the man as well, her beautiful eyes clouded with confusion. The man�s support was understandable, but also extremely unexpected.
�Our industry doesn�t solely rely on experience � skill is a very important trait as well. Since the attendees of this event are all top contributors, I�m sure you�ve seen her capabilities from four years ago�� Stefan�s indifferent gaze traveled over the crowd as he spoke calmly.
�She managed to pass every test and earned her position as the president of the Electronics Technology Association, which proves that she is more than capable. Now that she has invented the G6 chip, I think she definitely has the right to be a conference member.�
�I think Miss Everheart is quite admirable too!� Akio bowed deeply and smiled at Renee. �Welcome, Miss Everheart! New talents are always welcome. Let�s get to know each other better!�
Frederick sighed, turning to the other members. �What do you all think?�
Seeing the two most influential figures in the room taking Renee�s side, the others naturally didn�t dare to object. With that, they quickly changed their attitudes towards the woman, and started sucking up to her.
