After Mr. Xiang divorced, the president regretted it

"Trouble? What trouble?" Xiang Yu sat up straight from the sofa, his tone sharp, no longer sleepy. Since divorcing Yan Jin, he has developed the habit of resting in the office. Only in this way can he feel at ease, as if he can still smell a trace of her remaining scent.

"Our product...sales are not ideal, far below expectations." The marketing manager's voice trembled a little. He knew how much Xiang Yu valued this project.

Xiang Yu hung up the phone, his face terribly gloomy. He immediately called Yan Jin, and there was a busy tone on the other end of the phone. It was obvious that she was still busy with company matters. He irritably untied his tie, grabbed his coat, and strode out of the office.

"Jack, help me book the earliest flight. I want to go to the United States."

……

In the United States, Yan Jin is meeting with local marketing consultant Amy to discuss countermeasures.

"According to our market research," Amy pointed at the data on the projection screen, "Tom's company teamed up with several local companies to maliciously smear our products, saying that our products are inferior. They also deliberately lowered the prices to grab market share."

Yan Jin frowned, tapping her fingers lightly on the table, making a crisp sound, which was her habitual action when thinking. Tom was their biggest local competitor, and he had been trying to prevent their project from being implemented.

"Their methods are really despicable." Jack said angrily, "We should report their unfair competition to the local government!"

"Report?" Amy shook her head. "Tom has been operating in the local area for many years and has deep roots. We don't have enough evidence to prove that they have committed any illegal acts."

The atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became solemn. At this moment, the door of the conference room was pushed open, and Xiang Yu appeared at the door. There was obvious fatigue on his face, but his eyes were still sharp.

"The situation is worse than I thought." Xiang Yu walked over to sit next to Yan Jin, took the cup of coffee she handed over, and spoke in a heavy tone.

"It seems that we have to think of another way..." Yan Jin put down the documents in his hand and looked at everyone with a firm gaze, "Their target is us, so we should..."

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by a rapid knock on the door. The assistant pushed the door open in a panic, "Mr. Yan, something bad has happened, our factory..." "What happened to our factory?" Yan Jin stood up abruptly, her tone hurried, a hint of panic in her beautiful eyes, this was their only factory to open up the M country market.

The assistant said breathlessly, "Our factory... was closed down by the local authorities... for not meeting environmental standards!"

"What?!" Jack slammed the table and stood up, furious. "This is clearly a deliberate attempt to pick a fight! It must be Tom's doing!"

Yan Jin took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. "It seems that Tom is not going to leave us any chance of survival." She turned to look at Xiang Yu with a firm gaze. "But we are not so easily defeated!"

Xiang Yu's eyes were deep, and he gently held Yan Jin's hand, giving her strength, "No matter what you want to do, I will support you." Feeling the warmth of his palm, Yan Jin's heart inexplicably calmed down.

"First of all, we need to adjust our strategy and not confront them head-on." Yan Jin returned to the conference table and glanced at everyone. "They can lower our prices, but they can't erase the advantages of our products."

"You mean..." Amy seemed to understand what she meant.

"We want to compete with differentiation!" Yan Jin said firmly, "We want to prove to the market that our products are not cheap substitutes, but higher quality and more innovative options! We must focus on brand building and customer service to win the trust and reputation of consumers!"

"But, Mr. Yan," the marketing manager said with difficulty, "our production costs are higher than theirs. If we continue to maintain the current price, we will not be able to make a profit at all."

"I'll take care of this problem." Jack, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up. "I've contacted several local suppliers of raw materials. They're willing to supply us with goods at a more favorable price, and the quality is more guaranteed."

Yan Jin looked at him gratefully, "Jack, thank you!" Jack smiled, "We are partners, aren't we?"

Xiang Yu listened to the conversation with a hint of admiration in his eyes. Yan Jin's tenacity and wisdom, Jack's righteousness and ability, all impressed him. At this moment, he realized how stupid his original decision was. He pushed such an excellent woman away with his own hands.

In the next few days, Yan Jin and her team began their intensive work. They redesigned the product packaging to highlight the environmental protection and technological content of the product; they launched a series of promotional activities on social media, inviting users to share their experience; and they also established a complete after-sales service system to solve users' worries.

Xiang Yu used his personal connections to help Yan Jin open up some important local sales channels. Looking at Yan Jin's busy figure, his heart was filled with guilt and love. He secretly vowed to do his best to help her through the difficulties and win her back...

However, they did not know that a greater crisis was quietly approaching. Tom had secretly contacted an influential local media, preparing to deal a devastating blow to them... Chapter 203: The courage to swim against the current

In the financial section of Mondaily Morning News, an article titled "Shocking! Quality Scandal Exposed to Products of Well-Known Enterprises" dominated the front page. In the article, the reporter used sharp words to describe in detail the "quality problems" of the products of Xiang Yu and Yan Jin's companies, and attached several blurry photos, claiming that they were evidence of "problematic products."

For a time, public opinion was in an uproar. Consumers began to doubt this company from across the ocean, and the already sluggish sales fell again.

"Damn it!" In the office, Xiang Yu slammed the newspaper in his hand on the table, his face turning ashen.

"This is slander! Blatant slander!" Jack was furious. "Tom really did everything he could to suppress us!"

Although Yan Jin was also filled with anger and anxiety, her years of experience in the business world helped her calm down quickly. She knew that at this moment, the most important thing was to control the situation and not let the rumors continue to ferment.

"Amy, contact the local authoritative testing agency immediately to conduct a comprehensive test on our products. I want the most authentic test report!" Yan Jin made a prompt decision with a firm look in his eyes.

"Jack, contact a lawyer and prepare to file a lawsuit against Monday Morning Post! We will never tolerate this kind of malicious defamation!" Xiang Yu added, with unquestionable majesty in his tone.

Soon, Yan Jin and Xiang Yu invited the most authoritative third-party testing agency in the local area to conduct a comprehensive and rigorous test on their products. The testing process was open and transparent, and media and public representatives were invited to supervise.

Three days later, the test report came out, and the results showed that the company's products fully met local quality standards and posed no safety hazards.

Yan Jin and Xiang Yu immediately held a press conference to make the test report public and severely condemned the false report of Monday Morning Post.

"We believe that those who are not guilty will be cleared, and justice will be in the hearts of the people." Yan Jin stood on the stage, facing the cameras of many media, and said calmly and firmly, "We will also reserve the right to pursue legal responsibility against Mondaily Morning Post, and will never tolerate any rumor-mongering and slander!"

Xiang Yu stood beside her, giving her silent support. His deep eyes swept across the crowd below the stage, as if he could see through all the hypocrisy and conspiracy.

After the press conference, many media followed up on the incident, and public opinion began to reverse, with many people expressing sympathy and support for Yan Jin and Xiang Yu's company.

However, at this moment, Yan Jin's phone received a text message from an unfamiliar number, which only contained one sentence:

"This is just the beginning..." Chapter 203: The courage to swim against the tide

Although the test report cleared Yan Jin and Xiang Yu of all charges and Mondaily was forced to publicly apologize, the negative impact of the incident is far from eliminated.

"The market share is still declining..." Amy's voice trembled as she handed the latest market data report to Yan Jin.

Yan Jin took the report and frowned. The figures in the report were shocking. The company's market share this month had fallen to a historical low.

"Tom's move was really cruel," Jack gritted his teeth. "Even if we are proven innocent, he has already successfully made consumers doubt us. It will be extremely difficult to regain their trust!"

The office was filled with gloom and the depressing atmosphere made it hard to breathe.

"No, we still have a chance." Yan Jin suddenly spoke, breaking the silence.

She raised her head with a determined look, "I believe that as long as our products are good enough and our service is sincere enough, we will definitely win the recognition of consumers again!"

Xiang Yu looked at the woman who was still full of fighting spirit despite the adversity, and a warm current surged in his heart. He walked forward, gently held her hand, and gave her strength: "I believe in you."

In the following days, Yan Jin and Xiang Yu devoted themselves to their work. They visited customers in person to understand their needs and concerns, and further optimized and improved their products and services.

They participate in various industry exhibitions, actively showcase their products and corporate culture to the public, and impress everyone with sincerity and enthusiasm.

However, the market response remained flat, and the efforts of Yan Jin and Xiang Yu seemed to be in vain.

Just when they felt desperate, a call from L&K Group brought them hope.

L&K Group is an influential local enterprise and has always been a loyal customer of Tom's Company.

"Hello, Mr. Yan. I am Smith, the purchasing director of L&K Group." Smith's voice was low and steady on the other end of the phone. "We have carefully studied your company's products, and we also express our sympathy and understanding for your company's recent experience."

"Mr. Smith..." Yan Jin's heartbeat suddenly quickened, and a premonition came to his mind.

“We believe in your company’s strength and integrity,” Smith continued. “L&K Group is willing to establish a long-term cooperative relationship with your company and place the first order…”

Before Smith finished speaking, the door of the office was suddenly pushed open, and Amy rushed in with an anxious look on her face:

"Boss Yan, something bad has happened..."
