Double evil in the business district

Chapter 343

Xiao Yue stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the bustling traffic and flashing neon lights in the city.

As night falls and the lights come on, they are like stars scattered across the world.

She took a deep breath, feeling the cool night breeze brushing against her cheeks, and a surge of ambition surged in her heart.

A new starting point, a new journey, she is ready to face all challenges.

Shen Ting hugged her from behind, his chin resting lightly on her shoulder, his warm breath on her neck.

"What are you thinking about?" His low voice was filled with tenderness.

Xiao Yue smiled slightly and held his hand on her waist.

"Thinking about the future." She turned and looked at him with bright eyes. "Our future."

Shen Ting's eyes were full of tenderness. He gently lifted her chin and kissed her on the lips.

"I believe in you and you will definitely create our own glory."

Xiao Yue responded with a bright smile, her eyes gleaming with confidence.

However, there is always a gap between ideal and reality.

When Xiao Yue started to integrate the company's resources, he found some obstacles.

Some outdated management models within the company, like rusty gears, have stalled the company's progress.

Some old employees are accustomed to the step-by-step working method and are full of resistance to reform.

"Mr. Xiao, we have always done it this way. Why do we have to change it?" An old employee said with dissatisfaction in his tone.

"Yes, Mr. Xiao, it's fine now. There's no need to make a fuss." Another old employee echoed.

Xiao Yue patiently explained: "The times are advancing, and we must keep pace with them. Only by continuous innovation can we maintain our competitiveness."

However, her explanation was not understood by everyone.

The atmosphere in the conference room became somewhat solemn, with voices of opposition rising one after another.

Xiao Yue rubbed his eyebrows and felt a headache.

But she had no intention of backing down, instead her eyes revealed a determination.

"I know there will be resistance to reform," Xiao Yue said firmly, "but we must change, for the future of the company and for our own future." She looked around at everyone with a sharp gaze. "I will come up with a practical and feasible plan, and I hope everyone will seriously consider it."

After saying that, Xiao Yue picked up the documents, turned around and left the meeting room.

Shen Ting stood outside the door, looking at her quietly.

There was no worry in his eyes, only appreciation and support.

He knew that Xiao Yue would definitely be able to overcome this difficulty.

After returning to the office, Xiao Yue immediately called Secretary Zhou and Public Relations Manager Wu together and began to work on a new reform plan.

She flipped through the documents, her brows furrowed, her fingertips tapping lightly on the table. "Notify Detective Liu. I want to see him as soon as possible..."

After Xiao Yue returned to the office, he did not start formulating a new reform plan directly. Instead, he asked Secretary Zhou to arrange individual conversations with several old employees who took the lead in opposing the plan.

She keenly realized that these old employees were not completely resistant to change, and there were other hidden reasons behind their resistance.

The first person I talked to was Lao Li, an experienced financial officer who had worked in the company for twenty years.

Xiao Yue brewed a cup of fragrant green tea and handed it to Lao Li. The aroma of the tea was so thick that it seemed to soothe the anxiety in people's hearts.

"Uncle Li, you have been in the company for so many years, and your contribution to the company is obvious to all. You have also watched the company develop step by step. I am sure you also hope that the company will get better and better, right?" Xiao Yue's tone was gentle, like a younger generation's concern for the elder.

Old Li sighed, his rough fingers stroking the teacup, his tone filled with helplessness: "Boss Xiao, it's not that I don't want to change, it's just... I'm old and slow to learn new things. I'm afraid I won't be able to keep up with the company's development and will be eliminated..."

Xiao Yue understood that Lao Li's resistance stemmed from his concern about his own value.

She smiled and said soothingly, "Uncle Li, you are experienced and a valuable asset to the company. Reform doesn't mean abandoning veteran employees. The company will organize training to help everyone adapt to the new work processes. Your experience is very important to us, and we need you to guide the newcomers."

Next, Xiao Yue talked to several other old employees and found that their concerns were similar. Some were worried about not being able to adapt to the new way of working, while others were worried about losing their current positions.

In response to their concerns, Xiao Yue made promises one by one and formulated corresponding safeguards.

Her sincere attitude and practical plans gradually dispelled the concerns of old employees and won their understanding and support.

Secretary Zhou observed all this from the side and felt a sense of admiration for Xiao Yue.

She didn't expect that Xiao Yue, so young, could be so insightful and handle the problem so appropriately.

In the evening, the afterglow of the setting sun shines into the office, dyeing everything with a warm golden color.

Xiao Yue was working at her desk, with an exquisite loving lunch placed on the table.

Shen Ting walked in quietly and placed a cup of warm milk next to her. "You've been busy all day. Eat something first."

Xiao Yue raised her head and looked at the man in front of her who loved her deeply, and a warm feeling surged in her heart.

She smiled touchedly, "Why are you here?" Shen Ting touched her head gently, "Seeing how hard you've worked, I specially brought you lunch."

The two smiled at each other, and the air was filled with sweetness.

This scene happened to be seen by Secretary Zhou who was passing by. She smiled knowingly and left quietly.

As night fell, Xiao Yue stretched and rubbed his sore eyes.

At this moment, her cell phone vibrated and a message came into view.

After she finished reading it, her expression changed slightly and she whispered, "It seems that things are not that simple..." The competitor's actions were faster than Xiao Yue expected.

The rumor spread rapidly on the Internet like a virus, directly accusing Xiao's company of tax evasion and serious problems with product quality.

Negative reviews flooded in, the company's stock price plummeted, and its partners began to waver.

Xiao Yue felt a chill, as if he was in an ice cellar.

The cold air from the office's air conditioner brushed against her skin, making her even more aware of the severity of the crisis.

"PR Wu, what's the situation now?" Xiao Yue's voice was frighteningly calm, and the office was filled with a tense atmosphere.

Public Relations Officer Wu reported solemnly, "Ms. Xiao, rumors spread very quickly and have now become a trending topic. Many media outlets have reprinted them, causing a huge negative impact on our company's image." She could feel her palms sweating slightly and her heartbeat quickening.

Xiao Yue took a deep breath and looked determined: "Immediately launch the crisis public relations plan! Contact major media platforms, clarify the facts, and issue a statement. At the same time, collect evidence and find out who is behind this!" Her tone was decisive and unquestionable, like a sword drawn from its sheath, with a cold and sharp light.

Public Relations Officer Wu took the order and quickly got down to work.

The sound of keyboards tapping and telephones ringing came one after another. The entire public relations department was like a high-speed machine, tense and orderly.

Xiao Yue sat at his desk, tapping the table rhythmically with his fingers, making crisp "tapping" sounds, like a tense march.

She stared at the ever-changing data on the computer screen, her eyes as sharp as a hawk.

Under the command of Public Relations Manager Wu, the public relations team took quick action.

They contacted major media platforms, issued clarification statements, and provided relevant evidence.

At the same time, they also invited authoritative organizations to test the company's products and make the test results public.

Facts speak louder than words. In the face of solid evidence, rumors will be refuted.

The direction of public opinion began to change, and netizens expressed their support for Xiao's enterprise and condemned the rumormongers.

The company's stock price also began to recover, and partners regained their confidence.

After the crisis was resolved, Xiao Yue did not let down his guard.

She knew that this was only the first wave of attack and the enemy would surely come back again.

She needs to be fully prepared to face greater challenges.

Just when Xiao Yue thought everything was going well and was about to start the next plan, a rapid phone ring broke the silence in the office.

She picked up the phone and put it to her ear, "Hello?"

A low and hoarse voice came from the other end of the phone, with a hint of warning: "Xiao Yue, don't be too happy too soon, the good show has just begun..." The phone was suddenly hung up, and Xiao Yue tightened his grip on the phone, his knuckles turning white.
