The CEO's 100 Billion Bride: The Secret War of the Rich

The morning sun shone into the office. Su Wanwan rubbed her sore neck and looked at the data jumping on the computer screen. After a night of hard work, the attack of the "Black Claw" was finally completely disintegrated, but the challenges facing the company were far from over.

Huo Yanshen pushed the door open and walked in, holding two cups of coffee. He handed one to Su Wanwan and asked with concern, "Did you sleep well?"

Su Wanwan took the coffee and shook her head slightly: "I didn't sleep much. I was always monitoring the system's operation."

Huo Yanshen looked at his wife's slightly tired face with heartache, and said softly: "Thank you for your hard work. But now the most urgent crisis has been resolved, you should have a good rest."

Su Wanwan took a sip of coffee and smiled, "I'm fine. But you, you just came back from Europe and you've been working non-stop, so you need a rest more."

The two smiled at each other, their eyes showing relief and warmth. At this moment, Special Assistant Chen hurried in.

"Boss Huo, Boss Su," Special Assistant Chen said solemnly, "Although we successfully repelled the attack of 'Black Claw', the company's reputation has been seriously affected. Many customers and partners are asking for a review of our security system."

Huo Yanshen frowned and asked: "What is the specific situation?"

Assistant Chen quickly reported: "Currently, more than 30% of our customers have expressed their intention to suspend cooperation with us until we can prove that our system is absolutely secure. In addition, our stock price has fallen by 24% in the past 15 hours."

Su Wanwan and Huo Yanshen looked at each other and saw worry and determination in each other's eyes.

“We need a comprehensive response plan,” Su Wanwan said, “not only on the technical level, but also considering public relations and marketing strategies.”

Huo Yanshen nodded in agreement: "That's right. Special Assistant Chen, call the heads of all departments immediately. We need to hold an emergency meeting."

Half an hour later, the core team of the Huo Group gathered together. The atmosphere was solemn and tense.

Huo Yanshen looked around and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, we have just experienced the most severe challenge since the establishment of the company. Although we have successfully repelled the hacker attack, the crisis is far from over. Now, we need everyone's wisdom to overcome this difficulty."

Su Wanwan took over the topic: "First, the technical department should immediately conduct a comprehensive security audit to find all possible vulnerabilities and fix them. At the same time, we need to design a more powerful and secure system architecture."

Director Wang, the head of the technical department, immediately responded: "Understood. We will organize the most elite team to work 24 hours a day to complete the audit and upgrade in the shortest possible time."

Huo Yanshen nodded and turned to the head of the marketing department: "Director Li, I need you to develop a comprehensive market recovery plan. We need to restore our customers' confidence in us."

Director Li thought for a moment and said, "We can hold a series of technical seminars and open day events to let customers see our safety measures with their own eyes. At the same time, we can provide free safety assessment services to show our emphasis on customer safety."

Su Wanwan added: “Also, we can consider cooperating with some well-known cybersecurity companies and let them endorse our system. This will increase customer trust.”

Huo Yanshen glanced at his wife approvingly and continued, "Finance Department, I need you to assess the losses caused by this incident and develop a financial remediation plan. If necessary, we may have to consider cutting investments in some non-core businesses."

The meeting lasted for three hours, and each department proposed a detailed response plan. Finally, Huo Yanshen made a summary:

"Everyone, this crisis is a huge challenge, but it is also an opportunity. It allows us to see our own shortcomings and makes us more united. I believe that as long as we work together, we will be able to overcome the difficulties and make the Huo Group stronger."

After the meeting, Su Wanwan and Huo Yanshen stood side by side in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the night view of the city.

"Yan Shen," Su Wanwan said softly, "Can we really get through this difficult time?"

Huo Yanshen held his wife's hand and said firmly: "Of course. As long as we are together, there is nothing we can't overcome."

Su Wanwan leaned on her husband's shoulder, and a warm current surged in her heart. She suddenly realized that in this crisis, she and Huo Yanshen were not only husband and wife, but also the most tacit partners. They supported and encouraged each other and faced every challenge together.

"You're right," Su Wanwan said with a smile, "We are the best partners."

Huo Yanshen lowered his head and kissed his wife's forehead. "Not only that, we will become the strongest business partners. After this crisis, I would like to formally appoint you as the company's co-CEO. Your ability and contribution deserve this position."

Su Wanwan looked up in surprise: "Are you sure? This might cause a lot of controversy."

Huo Yanshen said firmly: "I am more certain than ever. Your performance in this crisis has proved that you are fully capable of taking on this important task. Moreover, I believe that if we work together, we will definitely be able to lead the Huo Group to a more glorious future."

Su Wanwan was so moved that her eyes were slightly wet. She hugged her husband tightly and said, "Thank you for your trust. I will never let you down."
