After Mr. Xiang divorced, the president regretted it

"It seems that we made the right bet." Standing on the top floor of the company's newly built office building, Xiang Yu looked at the prosperous city in the distance, feeling a lot of emotion. The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on his side face, reflecting his angular face, and also interweaving the fatigue and joy in his eyes.

"Yes, the power of the team is much stronger than we thought." Yan Jin showed a gratified smile on his face. They went through the storm hand in hand and finally welcomed the bright moon.

"But..." Before she finished her words, her eyes were suddenly attracted by a huge LED billboard in the distance. She frowned slightly: "Look, that's..."

Xiang Yu followed her gaze and saw an advertisement for a new technology company whose main product was a smart home control system. "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with this company?"

Yan Jin did not answer immediately, but fell into deep thought. In the past two days, when they were conducting a new round of market research, they noticed some interesting phenomena: more and more consumers began to pay attention to smart home products, and the market growth rate of such products was far beyond expectations.

"Do you remember the coffee shop we encountered during our research in City A? They are using a similar intelligent system, which not only improves operational efficiency but also optimizes customer experience." Yan Jin's tone was filled with excitement. "I think this may be a new opportunity."

Xiang Yu keenly caught the key words in her words, "Opportunity?"

"That's right. Smart homes, and even the broader field of smart IoT, will see explosive growth in the next few years." Yan Jin's eyes gleamed with confidence. "If we can seize this opportunity, we can achieve leapfrog development for the company."

Xiang Yu did not speak, but thought seriously about Yan Jin's words. He knew that Yan Jin's vision was always accurate and unique, and the "opportunity" she mentioned was not groundless.

"We need to act quickly." Yan Jin made a prompt decision, "Set up a special team to conduct in-depth research and analysis in this field and develop a detailed market entry strategy."

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away." Xiang Yu nodded in agreement, with a hint of excitement in his eyes.

The next day, a special "Smart Project" action group was set up within the company, led by Yan Jin and Xiang Yu. They drew on elite personnel from all departments of the company and began intensive market research and product development work.

A few days later, Yan Jin convened the first project progress meeting, and the heads of various departments reported on the current progress of their work.

"Mr. Yan, we have found that the smart home systems currently on the market generally have problems such as complex operation, single function, and high prices, and the user experience is not ideal." The marketing manager spoke first.

"The technical department has also encountered some bottlenecks. The existing technical architecture can hardly meet our expectations for product performance and user experience." The technical director frowned.

Just then, there was a gentle knock on the door of the conference room, and the secretary walked in, "Boss Yan, Boss Huang is here."

Yan Jin and Xiang Yu exchanged glances, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corners of their mouths... "Speak of the devil, and he will appear." Yan Jin stood up with a smile and walked to the door of the meeting room to greet him personally, "Mr. Huang, long time no see, please come in."

Mr. Huang is an entrepreneur in his 50s who runs a software company that is quite large in the industry. A few years ago, he and Mr. Xiang had cooperated several times and the two sides established a good relationship of trust.

"Boss Yan, Boss Xiang, I'm sorry to interrupt your meeting." Boss Huang walked into the meeting room with a smile, followed by two young technicians. "I heard that you are working on a smart home project, so I brought two people here to see if I can help."

Yan Jin and Xiang Yu warmly invited Mr. Huang and his group to sit down.

"Mr. Huang, you are so polite. We are having a headache over technical issues." Xiang Yu took the tea handed over by the secretary and handed it to Mr. Huang. "These two are..."

"Oh, let me introduce them." Mr. Huang pointed to the two young men beside him, "This is Xiao Li, our company's software architect, who has extensive experience in smart home system development; this is Xiao Wang, an expert in artificial intelligence algorithms, who has participated in many national scientific research projects."

Yan Jin and Xiang Yu's eyes fell on the two young men, their eyes full of anticipation.

"Hello, both of you. Nice to meet you." Yan Jin said with a sincere smile. "Our project has just started, and there is still a lot we need to learn from you seniors."

"Mr. Yan is too modest. We are all learning from each other and making progress together." Xiao Li responded with a smile.

In the following time, Mr. Huang and his team joined the project discussion. Xiao Li and Xiao Wang, based on their professional knowledge, put forward many constructive opinions and suggestions on the technical difficulties encountered in the project, which benefited all the project team members present.

"Mr. Huang, thank you so much this time. You came to our rescue and helped us solve a big problem!" After the meeting, Yan Jin personally sent Mr. Huang to the elevator, and his gratitude was beyond words.

"Boss Yan, you are too polite. We are old friends, and it is only natural for us to help each other." Boss Huang waved his hand. "I heard that you are still worried about funding?"

Yan Jin nodded. "The start-up capital gap for the new project is quite large. The bank is still evaluating it, and we are also actively seeking other financing channels."

"I know someone who might be able to help." Mr. Huang smiled meaningfully, "Manager Lin of Lin's Bank. His father and I have been friends for many years and we have a very good relationship."

Yan Jin's eyes lit up, "That's great! Mr. Huang, you are truly our benefactor!"

"Haha, it's just a piece of cake, you're welcome." Mr. Huang patted Yan Jin on the shoulder, "I believe that with your and Mr. Xiang's abilities, this project will definitely be a success."

The next morning, Yan Jin received a call from Bank Manager Lin, who invited her to the bank to discuss project financing in detail.

"Mr. Yan, I have heard of you for a long time. Today I finally meet you in person." Manager Lin is a shrewd and capable middle-aged woman. "Your smart home project is very promising. Our bank is very willing to provide financial support to your company."

After detailed communication and negotiation, the two parties finally reached a cooperation intention. Lin's Bank will provide Xiang's smart home project with a considerable amount of loan to ensure the smooth launch and implementation of the project.

Everything seemed to be going in a good direction, and Yan Jin and Xiang Yu could finally breathe a sigh of relief. However, what they didn't know was that a new storm was quietly brewing within the company...

"What? Smart home project? Are they crazy? Instead of focusing on their main business, they are doing these unreliable things!" Shareholder Liu slammed a project plan on the table and angrily said to the assistant beside him. The assistant shrank his neck in fear and asked cautiously: "Boss Liu, what should we do now? Should we stop them?"

Shareholder Liu waved his hands in annoyance. "Stop it? How?" He pointed at the project plan and said angrily, "This project has a huge initial investment. What if it goes to waste?"

The assistant didn't dare to answer. He knew that shareholder Liu was always cautious and conservative, and had a low risk tolerance for emerging industries. In his opinion, the smart home project led by Xiang Yu and Yan Jin was undoubtedly a gamble.

"Go, make an appointment for Consultant Zhao for me. I want to have a good talk with him about this project." Shareholder Liu rubbed his brows and decided to listen to the opinions of professionals.

Consultant Zhao is a senior financial consultant hired by shareholder Liu and enjoys a high reputation in the industry. He carefully studied the plan and related materials of the smart home project, conducted in-depth communication with the project team members, and finally submitted a detailed financial analysis report to shareholder Liu.

"Mr. Liu, I think this project has certain risks, but it also contains huge business opportunities." Consultant Zhao pointed to the data in the report and analyzed, "In recent years, with the rapid development of technologies such as the Internet of Things and artificial intelligence, the scale of the smart home market is growing at an astonishing rate, and the future development prospects are very broad."

He paused and continued, "Mr. Yan and Mr. Xiang have done an excellent job in project planning. They have a keen insight into market trends and have developed a practical development strategy. I believe that as long as the project team can steadily advance according to plan, this project is likely to become a new profit growth point for Xiang's company."

Consultant Zhao's analysis made shareholder Liu feel a little relieved. He began to think seriously about the project and took the initiative to contact Xiang Yu, expressing his willingness to participate in the planning and decision-making of the project.

"Mr. Xiang, I have carefully considered the smart home project, and it is indeed very promising." Shareholder Liu said sincerely on the phone, "I had some concerns before, but now it seems that I was overthinking."

Xiang Yu certainly understood shareholder Liu's concerns. He smiled and responded, "Mr. Liu, it's great that you understand our ideas. Your experience and connections are crucial to the success of our project. Your joining us will be a great help to us!"

In the following days, shareholder Liu actively participated in the planning and decision-making of the project. He made suggestions for the advancement of the project with his experience and connections accumulated over the years in the business world.

He helped the project team introduce several technical experts with rich experience in the smart home industry to improve the product's technical architecture and functional design; he also used his personal connections to help the project team open up cooperation channels with several large real estate developers, laying the foundation for the promotion and sales of smart home products.

With the joint efforts of shareholder Liu and consultant Zhao, the smart home project progressed smoothly and all work was carried out in an orderly manner. At this time, Yan Jin and Xiang Yu had also begun to prepare the marketing plan for the project...

"Tomorrow morning at nine o'clock, all members of the marketing department will go to the conference room for a meeting!" Yan Jin closed his laptop and said firmly, "This time, we are going to win a beautiful victory!"

The atmosphere in the meeting room on the second day was warm and full of enthusiasm. Yan Jin stood in front of the projection screen, looking at every employee, and said confidently and firmly: "Everyone, the smart home project is an important strategy for the future development of our company. I believe that with our efforts, we will be able to create a new world in this field!"

She briefly explained the market status and target customer groups. Then, Xiang Yu turned on the laser pen in her hand and presented the carefully prepared marketing plans to everyone one by one.

"We will adopt a promotion model that combines online and offline methods. Online, we will carry out in-depth cooperation with major e-commerce platforms and home furnishing websites. At the same time, we will use social media platforms to carry out precise delivery and quickly increase product awareness." Xiang Yu's voice was steady and powerful, and every word revealed his determination to succeed.

"Offline, we will set up experience stores in high-end shopping malls in major cities so that consumers can experience the convenience and comfort brought by smart homes. At the same time, we will also cooperate with some well-known home designers to integrate our products into their design plans to expand the audience of our products."

The meeting lasted until the evening. Yan Jin and Xiang Yu led the team to develop a detailed marketing plan. From product positioning, brand promotion to channel construction and after-sales service, every link was repeatedly scrutinized and demonstrated in the pursuit of perfection.

The launch of the new project was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, instantly stirring up a thousand waves. Major technology media rushed to report on it, industry insiders praised it, and consumers also showed great interest in this smart home product full of technology and futuristic sense.

The number of visits to Xiang's official website surged, consultation calls continued, and pre-sale orders for products came in like snowflakes. The smart home project got off to a good start. The company's stock price also rose accordingly, setting a record high.

Seeing all this, Yan Jin and Xiang Yu smiled at each other, and everything was self-explanatory. They knew that this was just the beginning, and in the future, they would lead the Xiang family to a more glorious tomorrow.

In a blink of an eye, it was the company's annual meeting. The banquet hall was brightly lit, and the atmosphere was festive. All employees attended in their best attire, their faces filled with joy and anticipation. This year was a year full of challenges and opportunities for Xiangshi, and it was also a year of great harvest, and all of this was inseparable from the hard work of every employee.

On the stage, the lights came on, and Yan Jin and Xiang Yu walked onto the stage side by side. They were wearing exquisite dresses and had confident smiles on their faces. On the big screen behind them, the company's development history over the past year was played...
