Double evil in the business district

Xiao Yue rubbed her brows. The information about the new product development project was spread out in front of her, like a steep mountain, pressing her to the point where she felt a little breathless.

Technical difficulties stand in the way like a roadblock, the funding gap devours resources like a bottomless pit, and the loss of core technical personnel makes the situation even worse. Every problem is like a chasm that is difficult to cross.

But there was a fire of unwillingness to admit defeat burning in her eyes. The future of Xiao's company and the success or failure of the new product all rested on her shoulders.

She took a deep breath, sorted out the scattered documents, and raised her lips in a determined arc: "If the enemy comes, we will fight him; if the water comes, we will block it with earth. I don't believe the sky will fall again!"

The first thing to overcome is the technical difficulties. Xiao Yue knows that only Professor Li can help her solve this problem.

This expert from the scientific research institution is known for his rigor and stubbornness, so it is not easy to convince him.

Xiao Yue carefully prepared the materials, detailing the new product's concept, technical difficulties, and potential value to society.

She drove to the scientific research institution with full sincerity.

Professor Li's office is simple and plain, with a faint scholarly air in the air.

Xiao Yue stated his purpose directly and elaborated on the concept of the new product and its potential value to society.

Her tone was sincere and her eyes were firm, as if she had a power that could infect people's hearts.

Professor Li was initially cold and repeatedly emphasized the difficulty and risks of developing this technology, and politely rejected Xiao Yue's request.

"Professor Li, I know this technology is very difficult, but its success will bring huge social benefits..." Xiao Yue did not give up and continued to fight, "We have made sufficient preparations and are confident that we can overcome all difficulties." She handed the prepared materials to Professor Li, her tone full of unquestionable firmness.

Professor Li took the information, looked through it carefully, and frowned.

He sometimes nodded and sometimes shook his head, with a complicated expression.

After a long moment, he raised his head and looked at Xiao Yue. His tone was still serious, but his attitude softened somewhat. “Your idea is very creative and feasible, but I still can’t guarantee…” He paused, his eyes falling on the information Xiao Yue brought, his fingers tapping lightly on the table. “I need to think about it more carefully.”

A glimmer of hope ignited in Xiao Yue's heart. She knew that this was Professor Li's biggest concession.

She stood up and bowed deeply to Professor Li: "Thank you, Professor Li, I will wait for your news." She turned and left. When she reached the door, she suddenly heard Professor Li's voice behind her: "Wait." Xiao Yue stopped, looked back at Professor Li, waiting for his next words.

Professor Li pointed at the information on the table and said slowly, "This information..."

Professor Li pointed at the materials on the table and said slowly, "This information... is very interesting, and I'm impressed by your enthusiasm for this project. Let me ask you a question. If you can answer it, I'll consider collaborating with you." He paused, a subtle sly glint in his eyes. "This question is very difficult. Go back and think about it carefully."

Xiao Yue was delighted and agreed immediately.

She took the information Professor Li handed back, looked at it carefully, and did not find any marks or clues.

She politely said goodbye to Professor Li and walked out of the research institute, her heart filled with excitement about the challenge and a hint of uneasiness.

After returning to the company, Xiao Yue immediately devoted himself to studying the difficult problem raised by Professor Li.

At the same time, there is an undercurrent surging.

Headhunter Chen, a headhunter sent by a competitor, secretly contacted Zhou, the core technician of Xiao's enterprise, and offered a high salary and favorable conditions in an attempt to poach him.

Technician Zhou was not disloyal to the Xiao family, but he was tempted by such attractive conditions.

In the office, he thought over and over again, struggling internally.

In order to retain core technical personnel, Xiao Yue developed a series of incentive plans and personally talked to technician Zhou, affirming his value and contribution, hoping that he could overcome the difficulties with the company.

However, Technician Zhou's hesitation and flickering eyes made Xiao Yue realize that the talent crisis was imminent.

As night falls, the lights in the office remain bright.

Xiao Yue rubbed her aching temples. Professor Li's questions were like a mountain pressing down on her, making it hard for her to breathe.

Technical difficulties, funding gaps, talent loss...

Various problems intertwined together made her feel extremely stressed.

At this time, the office door was gently pushed open and Shen Ting walked in.

He walked over to Xiao Yue with a cup of steaming coffee in his hand and placed the coffee on the table.

He didn't say anything, just stood quietly behind her, his hands gently placed on her shoulders.

Xiao Yue raised her head and saw Shen Ting's deep eyes full of concern and encouragement.

His warm big hands gently kneaded her shoulders, bringing a little comfort to her tired body and mind.

Shen Ting bent down and whispered in her ear, "Don't worry, everything will be fine." His hand slid down and held Xiao Yue's hand. His hand was warm and strong. Xiao Yue felt warm in her heart and saw silent support in his eyes.

She took a deep breath, and her pressure was relieved a lot, and her fighting spirit was rekindled.

"Thank you, Shen Ting." Xiao Yue held his hand back, her eyes full of gratitude.

Shen Ting smiled, said nothing, and just stayed by her side quietly.

Suddenly, Xiao Yue's cell phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number.

She answered the phone, and a deep voice came from the other end: "Ms. Xiao, regarding Professor Li's question..."

The voice on the other end of the phone was low and mysterious: "Ms. Xiao, I might be able to give you some clues about Professor Li's problem..." Xiao Yue's heart was filled with alarm, and her intuition told her that this call was not simple.

She calmly asked the other party about his identity and purpose, but the other party was vague, saying only that he was "a friend" and hinted that if she wanted to know more, she should go to the designated place alone.

Shen Ting noticed something strange about Xiao Yue, and a hint of worry flashed in his eyes.

He picked up the phone, warned the other party in a cold tone not to harass Xiao Yue again, and then hung up.

"Be careful, this might be a trap." Shen Ting said in a deep voice.

Xiao Yue nodded, but her heart became more determined. She decided to meet this mysterious "friend" in person.

The next day, Xiao Yue arrived at the designated location as agreed - a hidden cafe.

She looked around but didn't see anyone suspicious.

Just as she was wondering, a man wearing sunglasses walked up to her and handed her a note.

There was a complicated formula written on the note, which was the key to the difficult problem raised by Professor Li!

Xiao Yue was shocked. Could it be that this mysterious man really knew something?

She calmly put the note away, thanked the man and left quickly.

After returning to the company, Xiao Yue immediately called together the R&D team and showed everyone the formula.

Everyone immediately gathered around and carefully studied this mysterious formula.

After an intense discussion, they finally found a breakthrough and derived a preliminary solution based on the formula.

Xiao Yue visited Professor Li again with this preliminary plan. At first, Professor Li was not surprised by Xiao Yue's arrival, and even looked down on her, thinking that she could not solve the problem he raised.

However, when he saw the plan brought by Xiao Yue, he, who was always rigorous, couldn't help but show a surprised expression.

"this……

Is this what you came up with?

Professor Li pushed his glasses up, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes.

Xiao Yue nodded confidently and explained the principle and feasibility of the plan in detail.

After listening to this, Professor Li fell into deep thought.

After a long pause, he raised his head, his tone tinged with satisfaction. "Yes, your thinking is clear and innovative. Although this plan is not perfect, it's enough for me to see your potential."

Just when Xiao Yue was delighted with the breakthrough in technical difficulties, President Sun suddenly announced that in order to obtain investment, Xiao's enterprise must come up with a more convincing business plan.

This undoubtedly added another problem to Xiao Yue's problem.

Xiao Yue was not discouraged. After returning to the company, she immediately organized the R&D team to brainstorm.

Everyone worked together and came up with some new ideas. Xiao Yue saw the team's cohesion and his confidence increased greatly.

Late at night, Xiao Yue's office was still brightly lit.

She was revising her business plan. Shen Ting stood quietly behind her, watching her busy figure.

Suddenly, Shen Ting's cell phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and his expression changed slightly.

"I understand." He hung up the phone, turned to Xiao Yue and said, "President Sun, I've made an appointment for you to meet tomorrow." Xiao Yue raised her head and looked at Shen Ting, her eyes filled with gratitude and...

A subtle hint of doubt.

"Shen Ting..."
