After Mr. Xiang divorced, the president regretted it

"Pull out Wang's financial statements for the past three years and all the information on cooperative projects. I want to see if his competitors are really flawless!" Yan Jin picked up the phone and dialed a number. His tone was cold and full of unquestionable majesty.

Xiang Yu looked at her stern profile, feeling mixed emotions. He once thought Yan Jin's strength and decisiveness were just to gain a foothold in the business world, but now, he saw her determination to protect her, and what he wanted to protect was not only the company, but also her.

The lights on the top floor of Xiang's Building stayed on all night. Yan Jin and Xiang Yu worked side by side, with documents and data spread out before their eyes like spider silk. Fatigue surged like a tide, Yan Jin rubbed his sore eyes, but still did not stop the work in his hands.

"Take a rest first." Xiang Yu handed her a cup of hot milk with concern, "Even if there is something wrong with Wang's company, we must find solid evidence to fight back."

Yan Jin took the milk and took a sip. A hint of determination appeared in her tired expression. "I have asked people to check several of Wang's recent major projects, especially the overseas investment project. It is highly similar to the project we are maliciously competing against. If we can find the source of funds, we can find a breakthrough."

"I have contacted the legal team. If we can prove that Wang has engaged in unfair competition and manipulated public opinion, we can sue them and use legal means to protect our rights," Xiang Yu added.

The next morning, the legal team arrived at Xiang's office. In the conference room, the atmosphere was solemn and serious, and the projector was playing recent negative reports about Xiang's office in a loop.

"Based on the information we have at present, Wang's behavior is suspected of constituting unfair competition. We can collect evidence from the following aspects..." The head of the legal team analyzed the current situation and response strategies in detail and proposed a specific action plan.

Xiang Yu listened carefully to the lawyer's advice and asked in a deep voice: "If we want to sue the mastermind behind the manipulation of public opinion, what evidence do we need?"

"This is more difficult. The spread of online public opinion is often covert. We need to find direct evidence to prove that there is a connection between Wang or his agents and the public opinion manipulators, such as financial transactions, instruction emails, etc."

"I will try my best to find the evidence." Yan Jin said firmly, with rage burning in her eyes. She would never allow anyone to harm the company that she and Xiang Yu were protecting together in any way.

At this moment, Yan Jin's phone rang, and an unfamiliar number flashed on the screen. She answered the call, and a deep voice came from the receiver: "Want to find evidence? I know who is behind this..."

Yan Jin's fingers holding the phone tightened slightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"who is it?!"

"Who is it?!" Yan Jin asked, with a barely perceptible tremor in his tone.

The person on the other end of the phone laughed deeply and said, "If you want to know, come to see me with sincerity." Then he hung up the phone.

Yan Jin held the phone in her hand, lost in thought. The other party was clearly well prepared, knowing that she was eager to find evidence, but unwilling to reveal the information easily.

"Who's calling?" Xiang Yu noticed that she looked strange and asked with concern.

Yan Jin took a deep breath and told him what happened on the phone.

"It seems that the other party wants to negotiate with us," Xiang Yujian frowned slightly, "We can't easily agree to his conditions, nor can we let go of any clues."

"I know." Yan Jin nodded, a firm look flashing in his eyes, "I will find out his identity and purpose as soon as possible."

The crisis of Xiang Group continued to ferment, negative news was overwhelming, and the stock price continued to fall. Yan Jin knew that now was a critical moment to test the cohesion of the company.

She called together all employees and held a mobilization meeting in the company's conference room.

"Dear colleagues, I believe you have seen the recent reports about the company," Yan Jin stood on the stage, his eyes sweeping across the familiar faces, "I know that the company is in a precarious moment, but I believe that as long as we unite as one, we will be able to overcome the difficulties before us!"

"These rumors are completely false. We have acted uprightly and done the right thing, and we have a clear conscience!" Yan Jin's voice was full of power. "I believe that those who are innocent will be innocent, and justice will be in the hearts of the people!"

Her speech won warm applause from the employees, and everyone's face was filled with determination and confidence.

However, the rival companies did not give up. They were well aware of the essence of the public opinion war and continued to throw new "evidence" to throw dirty water on the Xiang Group.

"Xiang Group is suspected of tax evasion!"

"There are serious problems with the quality of Xiang Group's products!"

"The internal management of Xiang Group is in disarray, and employees are complaining!"

……

Sensational headlines went viral on the Internet, pushing the Xiang Group into the abyss of public opinion. Yan Jin and Xiang Yu worked hard but were unable to stop the gossip.

What makes them even more heartbroken is that the partners who once fought alongside them are also beginning to avoid them.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Yan, our recent project needs to be re-evaluated..."

"Mr. Xiang, I'm afraid we have to put our cooperation on hold for the time being..."

The voices of excuses coming from the other end of the phone one after another made Yan Jin's heart sink gradually.

She knew that a bigger storm was coming towards them...

Yan Jin held the phone, her fingertips whitening. The words of her partners were like cold blades, cutting through the trust and friendship of the past. Those allies who had once called each other brothers and sisters and achieved mutual benefit and win-win results were now avoiding her as if they were some kind of scourge.

"It's okay, we still have ourselves." Xiang Yu put his arm around Yan Jin's shoulders, his voice low and firm, like a reef standing in a storm. He knew very well that what Yan Jin needed at this moment was not comfort, but support, and the determination to fight side by side.

"Yeah." Yan Jin gently leaned on Xiang Yu's shoulder. After a brief moment of weakness, the blazing fire in her eyes rekindled. "They want to see us fall, but we want to turn the tide!"

The atmosphere in the Xiang Group's meeting room was heavy and depressing. The legal team was analyzing every report released by the rival company, trying to find a breakthrough.

"The content they published seemed to be well-founded, but a lot of it was taken out of context and deliberately misleading." The lawyer pushed his glasses and pointed at the data analysis on the screen. "We must find evidence of their fabrication in order to change public opinion."

"I have asked the PR team to collect and organize all the evidence that is favorable to us," Yan Jin analyzed calmly, "At the same time, we must also prepare for the worst. If they insist on having their own way, we can only sue them for defamation."

Just as they were preparing to take action, Mr. Wang from the rival company suddenly held a press conference. The press conference was crowded with reporters, who were aiming their cameras at Mr. Wang on the stage, looking forward to the new developments in this public opinion war.

Mr. Wang had a look of deep sorrow on his face, and denounced the Xiang Group for using all means to suppress its opponents, maliciously spreading rumors and damaging their reputation. He also claimed that they had mastered more unknown secrets of the Xiang Group, and if the Xiang Group did not stop the attack, they would expose the truth at all costs.

"Our company's latest product was originally planned to be launched next month, but..." At this point, President Wang paused and showed a sly smile on his face, "We found that the core technology of this product is surprisingly similar to the new product that Xiang Group is about to launch!"

He deliberately paused for a few seconds, observing the reactions of the reporters present, then waved his hand suddenly, and a comparison picture of the two products appeared on the screen behind him, which were almost identical.

"Whether there is suspicion of plagiarism, I think everyone can make their own judgment!" Mr. Wang said indignantly, "We reserve all rights to pursue legal action!"

Yan Jin looked at Mr. Wang's hypocritical face on the screen, and a surge of anger rushed to her head, but she quickly calmed down and keenly realized that things were not that simple.

"Boss Xiang, look..." The assistant hurriedly ran to Xiang Yu with a tablet computer, pointing at the news on the screen, his face pale, "Boss Wang, he... he actually..."

On the screen, a piece of latest news was displayed: Breaking news! Xiang Group was accused of plagiarizing trade secrets, and the evidence was irrefutable!

Xiang Yu snatched the tablet computer, staring at the picture on the screen with a dark face.

"Impossible!" Yan Jin pushed the computer in front of him away and stood up suddenly. "I have been personally following up on the research and development information of this product. There is no way it can be leaked!"

"Could it be..." Xiang Yu suddenly thought of something, and looked up at Yan Jin with a gleam in his eyes, "Let's go to the R&D department!"
