Heart Stealer

Chapter 258 The mastermind behind the scenes

What disappointed Xiao Tuobang and Jing Tianxin was that no matter how they asked, the relevant insiders in the supermarket seemed to be hesitant.

In order to keep their current jobs, they all chose to avoid talking about the incident.

The two worked for a whole day but found nothing. The progress of the investigation seemed to be caught in an endless mystery.

After returning from the supermarket, Xiao Tuobang and Jing Tianxin both thought that the mastermind behind the scenes seemed to be very familiar with the situation of both Qiu and Jing companies.

Jing Tianxin analyzed calmly,

"It seems that the other party is well prepared."

Xiao Tuobang echoed,

"Yes, we must be careful."

Although Xiao Tuobang and Jing Tianxin tried very hard to find the mastermind behind the scenes, they still couldn't find any clues.

Recently, a large number of false rumors about the Jing Group and the Qiu Group have suddenly emerged on the Internet.

These rumors spread like a virus, causing immeasurable negative impact on both companies.

There are rumors that Jing Group has just successfully become the controlling shareholder of XX Supermarket, and all kinds of products under Qiu Group have disappeared from XX Supermarket as if out of thin air.

What's more, there are rumors that Xiao Tuobang, the president of Qiu Group, once pursued Zhang Sufang, the young lady of Jing Group, passionately, and the young master of the Jing family has always been resentful about this.

These rumors were exaggerated to be lifelike, and their sinister intentions were obvious, which was to deliberately provoke sharp conflicts between the Jing Group and the Qiu Group.

Faced with this overwhelming amount of false news, Jing Tianxin was furious. He had to take immediate action to prevent the situation from getting worse.

Jing Group's legal department urgently issued a sternly worded official statement overnight, clearly stating that Jing Group had never had any plans or intentions to cooperate with the XX supermarket chain.

At the same time, the legal department of Jing Group has also fully started its work and is making every effort to collect relevant evidence.

Once the true identities of rumormongers and rumor spreaders are ascertained, they will be severely punished according to law and will not be tolerated.

After the statement was released, the rumors about the discord between Qiu and Jing companies were refuted and the storm gradually subsided.

……

Now is the transition period between spring and summer, and competition in the beverage market is extremely fierce, with companies doing their best to compete for market share.

At this critical moment, Xiao Tuobang made a prompt decision and shifted his work focus to the beverage company.

The business world is like a battlefield, and Xiao Tuobang knows that any slight negligence may lead to missed opportunities.

Therefore, no matter how big or small the matter is, he requires his subordinates to report to him as soon as possible so that he can make decisions in time and control the overall situation.

It was a rainy afternoon, and the sky was so dark that it seemed covered by a huge gray curtain.

The raindrops outside were hitting the window, making a crisp and monotonous sound.

Although the lights in the house were bright, they still couldn't dispel the depressing atmosphere.

Xiao Tuobang was sitting at his desk, concentrating on reviewing the piles of documents.

Sometimes he frowned, sometimes he wrote furiously. The whole room was unusually quiet and peaceful, except for the occasional rustling of the pen across paper.

Suddenly, there was an abrupt and rapid knock on the door, like a thunder that broke the brief calm.

After hearing the sound, Xiao Tuobang slowly raised his head and looked towards the door with sharp eyes.

Vice President Fang Mei was seen pushing the door open hurriedly, clutching a thick report in one hand. Her pretty face was now filled with nervousness.

Fang Mei walked quickly to the desk and without taking a breath, she quickly placed the heavy report document in her hand heavily on the table.

Xiao Tuobang reached out his hand expressionlessly and took the report.

He just casually glanced at the cover, and his face instantly became extremely gloomy, like the sky before a storm, covered with dark clouds, which was chilling.

It turned out that a new product newly developed by the company was actually plagiarized by its competitor Niu Duoduo, and was launched on the market ahead of schedule, successfully seizing the market opportunity.

"How is this possible? Hasn't the project team kept it very secret?" Xiao Tuobang slammed the table in anger, his voice shaking the entire room slightly.

Fang Mei's expression was equally solemn. She took a deep breath and said,

"Boss Xiao, according to reliable information, a key R&D staff member of the project team was poached by Niu Duoduo Company with a large sum of money!

What’s even more infuriating is that this employee actually took away all the core secrets of our new project.

I seriously suspect that the reason our products couldn't be put on supermarket shelves before was also because of Niu Duoduo..."

Niu Duoduo Company, a well-known old beverage giant throughout the country, has always been a well-deserved leader in the industry.

However, who could have expected that such a seemingly respected large company would resort to such despicable and shameless means to suppress its competitors.

Xiao Tuobang's rage grew more and more intense. He slammed the table hard, causing the documents on the table to jump up, as if they were also trembling with his anger.

"Alright, this Niu Duoduo Company is really going too far! Vice President Fang, immediately notify the company's legal advisor, Lawyer Sun, and have him rush to my office immediately!

I will not stop until I sue the R&D engineer who stole our company's core secrets and Niu Duoduo Company until they are bankrupt and their reputation is ruined!"

Xiao Tuobang's eyes were cold as ice. He knew very well that this lawsuit would be difficult and dangerous, but he would never give up easily.

When Lawyer Sun, the legal advisor of Qiu Group, received a call from Fang Mei, he did not dare to delay for a moment and quickly put down the pen in his hand.

Then he stood up, straightened his suit, picked up the black briefcase beside him, and strode towards the door.

Walking to the car, Lawyer Sun skillfully opened the door and nimbly got into the driver's seat.

He inserted the key to start the engine, stepped on the accelerator, and the car sped towards the Qiu Group headquarters like an arrow.

Time passed quickly as the wheels turned rapidly. Not long after, Lawyer Sun drove to the Qiu Group's brand new and magnificent headquarters building.

He carefully and steadily parked the car in the designated parking space.

As soon as Lawyer Sun pushed open the car door, a scorching heat wave rushed towards him like a beast.

It was noon at this time, and the scorching sun was high in the sky, shining down mercilessly, as if it was going to scorch the earth.

Lawyer Sun only felt that his slightly sparse hair on his forehead was hot from the sun, and the strong sunlight made it almost difficult for him to open his eyes.

Lawyer Sun walked quickly into the office building. The moment he stepped into the lobby, he immediately felt the cool breeze brought by the air conditioning.

Lawyer Sun did not stop, but continued to walk towards the elevator at a quick pace.

Soon, he took the elevator directly to the floor where the president's office was located.
