A saleswoman who shot to fame for selling the most Porsche cars in the northern China region said she is regularly harassed by sex-related rumours, forcing her to call the police in one case because of her top sales performance.
Molly Mu Qianwen grabbed national attention in January last year for being the sales champion among all the Porsche Northern China offices, thus winning an award from the CEO of Porsche China after she sold 170 vehicles in 2023.
She continued her success by stating on social media earlier this year: “Despite a sluggish economic background, I still sold 170 Porsche cars in 2024.”
In October alone, Mu closed deals on 27 cars, with four of them sold on one particular day, Mu revealed.

But the online fame also brought Mu sex-related rumours, which claimed that she achieved her sales record by having sex with her clients, the Jimu News reported.
In February, Mu saw a pornographic video clip containing her photos circulate widely online, garnering 9 million views.
She reported the video to the police in Qingdao, Shandong province, eastern China, where she lives.
The police said they are still investigating the clip, without making any substantial progress, Mu told the media.
“It often happened that strangers called me, saying inappropriate things to me,” Mu was quoted as saying. “I realised that no matter how hard I explained, I cannot erase those rumours.”
“Now I believe that a clean hand needs no washing. Rumours stop at the wise,” she continued.
The 34-year-old Mu, who is married and has a son, said that about 60-70 per cent of her clients are female, and she never hangs out or has dinner with her clients in private.
“My knack for sales is sincerity. I have strong congeniality. I am good at taking pictures for clients, and I provide emotional value,” said Mu.
With 84,000 followers on a leading social media platform, Mu said about one-third of her orders can be attributed to her influence on social media.
Porsche is sold at prices ranging from half a million yuan (US$68,000) to two million yuan in mainland China.

It is not clear how much commission Mu has earned from selling these luxury vehicles.
Mu’s story has sparked an outpouring of discussions on social media in China.
“Why is it so difficult to believe that a woman can have strong working abilities?” one online observer remarked.
Another person commented, “I’ve watched her interviews. I think she is a trustworthy person. That is why many people buy cars from her.”
