From an abandoned girl to a wealthy lady

Chapter 184: Transformation Begins: Breaking the Ice

Wen Nuan pushed open the door of the conference room, and her steady footsteps echoed in the silent room, as if knocking on everyone's hearts.

Mr. Mo Si sat in the main seat, his eyes, which had seen the ups and downs of the business world, were now looking at Wen Nuan with scrutiny, his gaze as sharp as a sword drawn from its sheath.

Most of the senior managers of the Mo family enterprises around had complicated expressions, including doubts, worries, and wait-and-see attitude. All these emotions intertwined together to form an invisible pressure that enveloped Wen Nuan.

She took a deep breath, placed the prepared documents under the projector, and a clear voice rang out in the conference room: "Ladies and gentlemen, what I want to talk about today is the Mo family's business transformation plan..." She explained the contents of the plan in a clear and orderly manner. From market analysis to risk assessment, to expected returns, every link has been carefully considered, and every data has been repeatedly verified.

She emphasized the transformation plan's focus on retaining and expanding the Mo family's traditional businesses, attempting to allay the concerns of Mr. Mo Si and others.

With the warm explanation, Mr. Mo Si's originally frowned gradually relaxed, and he would occasionally nod in agreement.

Other senior executives also began to listen carefully, discussing in low voices from time to time, and the atmosphere gradually eased.

"Transformation is certainly important," Fourth Master Mo said slowly, a hint of hesitation in his tone, "but we must not forget what has brought the Mo family's business to where it is today..." He paused, his eyes landing on Wen Nuan, "Stability overrides everything. If we take too big a step, we'll easily stumble."

Wen Nuan's expression remained unchanged as she responded calmly, "Fourth Master is right. Stability is the cornerstone. But this doesn't mean we have to be complacent and stick to the old ways..." She said firmly, "Transformation doesn't mean abandoning tradition, but rather giving it new life..."

Mr. Mo Si was silent for a moment, his eyes flickering, as if he was weighing something.

He slowly raised his hand, signaling Wen Nuan to pause, "Let me think about it first..." His tone was low, making it difficult to guess his true thoughts.

Wen Nuan nodded slightly and was about to speak when the door of the conference room was suddenly pushed open. The secretary hurried in and whispered a few words in Wen Nuan's ear.

Wen Nuan's expression changed slightly. "I understand." She turned to look at Fourth Master Mo, "Fourth Master, President Zhang is here."

President Zhang walked into the conference room with a professional smile on his face, but the caution in his eyes could not be concealed.

After exchanging a few pleasantries with Fourth Master Mo, he turned his gaze to Wen Nuan, his tone polite but distant: "Mrs. Mo, regarding your company's loan application for transformation plan, we still need to further evaluate..."

"President Zhang, our transformation plan has undergone rigorous market research and risk assessment..." Wen Nuan tried to explain, but was interrupted by President Zhang.

"Mrs. Mo, the bank's responsibility is to avoid risks. Your company's transformation plan involves emerging fields with higher risks. We must be cautious..." President Zhang implied that the loan application would be difficult to approve.

Seeing this, Mr. Mo Si said with a hint of pride in his tone: "Young man, if you take too big a step, you may easily get hurt..." He glanced at Wen Nuan and said meaningfully.

Wen Nuan suppressed her anger and argued, "Fourth Master, the times are changing, and we can't stand still..." The atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became tense, and both sides argued back and forth.

At this moment, Mo Han appeared silently at the door of the conference room.

He held a glass of water in his hand and walked straight to Wen Nuan and handed the water to her.

"Drink some water." His voice was low and gentle, like a clear spring, nourishing and warming the anxious heart.

His fingers gently touched the warm hands, conveying silent encouragement and support.

Wen Nuan felt warm in her heart, took the cup of water and took a sip.

Mo Han's gaze swept across the crowd, finally landing on Fourth Master Mo. A meaningful smile played on his lips, "Fourth Uncle, times have changed..." He paused, his tone carrying a hint of unquestionable authority, "The Mo family, it's time to change..."

Mo Han's appearance was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.

The atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became subtle.

Fourth Master Mo's expression changed slightly, President Zhang also restrained his previous arrogance, and the other senior executives of the Mo family were even more silent.

Wen Nuan took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and spoke again.

Instead of continuing to argue with Mr. Mo, she proposed a completely new plan - a pilot plan that combined traditional business with transformation business.

This plan does not completely abandon tradition, but rather builds on traditional business, gradually integrating emerging technologies and concepts to ultimately achieve a smooth transformation.

The innovativeness of this plan and the huge potential it contained made Mr. Mo Si's eyes light up.

His originally tense body relaxed slightly and he began to listen carefully to the warm explanation.

He asked some questions from time to time, and Wen Nuan answered them one by one, with clear and logical explanations.

At the same time, Wen Nuan also produced a large amount of market research data and future trend analysis reports, which strongly supported the feasibility and necessity of the transformation plan.

She even contacted several authoritative experts in the industry and asked them to explain the advantages and development prospects of the new technology to Mr. Mo and other senior executives through video calls.

The experts' personal testimony and Wen Nuan's detailed analysis gradually undermined the resistance of several traditional forces around Mr. Mo Siye.

They began to realize that transformation was no joke, but the only way for the Mo family business to survive in future competition.

Seeing his former staunch supporters turning against him one by one, Mr. Mo Si's face became more and more ugly.

He felt as if he was isolated on a deserted island, with the sea water around him slowly rising and about to drown him.

"Fourth Uncle," Mo Han's voice rang out again, a hint of subtle teasing in it. "What do you think of this plan?" He paused, his gaze set on Fourth Master Mo, a meaningful smile playing on his lips. "Times are changing. The only thing that remains unchanged is change itself..."

Mr. Mo Si was silent for a moment, his eyes flickering, as if he was engaged in a fierce ideological struggle.

Finally, he slowly raised his head, his eyes fell on Wen Nuan, and his tone was low and complicated: "I need to think about it again..." He stood up, leaning on his crutches, and slowly walked towards the door, "Let's adjourn..."

When he reached the door, he suddenly stopped, without looking back, and said lightly: "Tomorrow, I want to see a more detailed plan..." Then he pushed open the door and left the meeting room.

Wen Nuan looked at Mr. Mo Si's departing back, feeling mixed emotions.

She knew that this was only the first step in a long journey, and the road ahead was still long and full of challenges and unknowns.

But she believes that as long as she persists, she will succeed.

She turned to look at Mo Han and smiled slightly: "Thank you."

Mo Han walked over to her, gently put his arm around her shoulders, and whispered in her ear: "Let's..."

The phone suddenly rang, breaking the brief silence in the meeting room.

Wen Nuan glanced at the caller ID and her expression changed slightly...

Wen Nuan answered the phone, her expression becoming increasingly serious.

On the other end of the phone, investor Sun's tone was full of apology: "Mrs. Mo, I'm very sorry, I'm afraid I can't invest in your project..." He paused, with a hint of helplessness in his tone, "My partners strongly oppose it, and I really can't convince them..." Wen Nuan took a deep breath and tried to remain calm: "Mr. Sun, can you tell me why your partners changed their minds?" Investor Sun hesitated for a moment, and finally told the truth: "Someone told them that your transformation plan is too risky and lacks successful precedents..." Wen Nuan's heart sank. She knew that it was a competitor behind the scenes.

After hanging up the phone, Wen Nuan immediately contacted President Zhang, hoping to renegotiate the loan matters.

Although President Zhang remained cautious, he expressed his willingness to listen to the transformation plan again.

A glimmer of hope ignited in Wen Nuan's heart. She knew that this was her last chance.

However, competitors did not give up.

After they learned that Wen Nuan had made progress internally, they began to secretly put more pressure on Investor Sun.

They even spread rumors to discredit the reputation of Mo's business, trying to completely cut off the financing channels of Mo's business.

Wen Nuan did not panic when she learned about this.

She calmly analyzed the current situation and realized that she must find a new breakthrough as soon as possible.

She called together team members overnight to discuss response strategies.

After a heated discussion, they decided to split into two groups: one group would continue to communicate with President Zhang to obtain loans; the other group would make every effort to find new investors to break the blockade of competitors.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the pressure was like an invisible boulder, pressing Wen Nuan to the point of suffocation.

But she did not give up. She firmly believed that as long as she persisted, she would be able to find a solution to the problem.

Just then, Mo Han walked in with a document in his hand.

"Take a look at this," he handed the document to Wen Nuan in a calm tone, "Perhaps, we have a new opportunity..." Wen Nuan took the document, glanced through it quickly, and her eyes lit up.

This is a letter of intent for cooperation from an overseas investment institution. The other party expressed great interest in the transformation plan of the Mo family enterprise and was willing to provide huge investment.

Wen Nuan was delighted, but soon calmed down.

She knew that things were not that simple.

The backgrounds of overseas investment institutions are complex, and their exact purpose remains to be further investigated.

"Mo Han," Wen Nuan raised her head with a firm look, "We must be careful..." Her voice stopped abruptly, and the phone rang again, breaking the brief silence in the office.

Wen Nuan glanced at the caller ID and her expression changed slightly...

"President Zhang..."
