Chapter 22 The Dog that Bites Doesn't Bark

Everyone at the meeting looked at Cheng Xu in surprise. As a vice president, how could he say such vulgar words?

Someone spoke up for Xu Yan, “I think Miss Xu’s idea is not wrong. If we think about it from another angle, if our Meisi Group encounters difficulties, Xinlan Group may not lend a hand and will more likely take advantage of the situation to rob us.”

“That’s right! We are employees of Meisi Group. Our original intention is definitely to hope that Meisi Group will be good and the company can continue to develop so that we can maintain our lives. Who wants the company to go bankrupt?”

Cheng Ji put his hands down, signaling everyone to be quiet. He asked Xu Yan, “What are you going to do?”

Xu Yan said, “ Xinlan Group was bankrupt because of sanitary napkins, so we can make a fuss about it. We can set up a care center and set up sanitary napkin emergency boxes in some schools in Canghai City to solve the urgent needs of those girls.”

As soon as this idea came out, Cheng Xu immediately objected, “With this kind of investment, how much money would we have to spend a month? What if those who are looking for bargains don’t buy anything themselves and just take the emergency kit?”

Xu Yan ignored him and looked at Cheng Ji and said, “We spend a lot on advertising every year, some of which is even ineffective. Doing this project is currently the best time to cultivate word of mouth and attract some potential consumers.”

Cheng Ji gritted his teeth and asked the others, “What do you think of this idea?”

No one said anything, only Cheng Xu sneered.

Xu Yan said, “The directors are afraid to express their opinions because they are worried about the cost, right? They are worried that if they continue to do this, it will cost too much. I can say responsibly that this project will be very profitable if we stick to it. Our consumer group has always been women. No matter what crisis we encounter in the future, this will be a magic sword that can save us.”

“Can the costs be controlled?” Cheng Ji asked out loud.

Xu Yan said, “We can have a budget and decide how much to invest each month. In fact, emergency supplies like sanitary napkins are enough, and they don’t have to be big brands. There are many domestic brands that are cheap and easy to use. For this kind of charity, we may get the cost price, and the manufacturers are also happy to do it.”

Cheng Xu asked unconvincedly, “How do you know they would be willing to do it?”

Xu Yan sat up straight and said in a strong voice, “Because I am a woman.”

Cheng Ji trusted Xu Yan in maintaining and improving the brand. He put his hands on the table and said to Xu Yan, “Go and make a budget plan.”

Xu Yan looked at Cheng Xu who looked unhappy, smiled and had another idea in her mind. She said, “After the meeting, we can do a questionnaire survey within the company and ask the female colleagues in the company or your family members to hear what they think.”

Cheng Ji nodded, “Okay, I’ll ask the secretary to distribute a questionnaire in the company later, and you should come up with this plan as soon as possible.”

Cheng Xu was very depressed when he saw that this plan was supported by Cheng Ji. He now understood more and more clearly that Cheng Ji would not approve anything he wanted to do as long as Xu Yan blocked it. On the other hand, Cheng Ji would not object to any plan proposed by Xu Yan, no matter how outrageous it was.

At the meeting today, he said some inappropriate remarks. I don’t know how these people will accuse him after they go back.

The resentment towards Xu Yan accumulated in my heart.

After the meeting, Xu Yan returned to his workstation and immediately started working on a sanitary napkin emergency box plan. He was so busy that he didn’t even have time to eat lunch.

...

Xinlan Group’s public relations department initially covered up this public opinion crisis , and only reported it to Jiang Han when it became difficult to reverse the situation.

He slammed the table in anger, “How come such a small matter was not handled properly and instead given to others to use as a handle?”

The public relations director said, “Originally this matter had little to do with our company. It was just an employee who responded online with his own emotions, which ended up angering the public. We thought we could just use the usual methods to handle it, but we didn’t expect to hit a wall.”

Jiang Han cursed, “A bunch of idiots! You are facing a mass incident this time, and using high-pressure tactics will only backfire!”

The PR director asked , “Mr. Jiang, what should we do next?”

Jiang Han glared at him and said, “Write your resignation letter and I’ll approve it right away.”

The male employee who made the inappropriate remarks was also immediately dismissed. Xinlan Group then wrote a sincere apology letter on its official website and social media accounts, and the matter was barely resolved.

But it was too late to deal with it, and netizens were not buying it. Jiang Han didn’t care too much, because popular events on the Internet usually last only seven days, and when the heat drops, the public will automatically forget about it.

Unexpectedly, Meisi Group would give Xinlan Group a heavy blow at this time .

Meisi Group posted a notice on its official website and official accounts on various platforms, stating that the company will set up a fund to care for women and set up sanitary napkin emergency boxes in some schools and public places in Canghai City to help women solve urgent problems. It will also donate such supplies to schools in remote areas.

This announcement was immediately forwarded by many accounts. Netizens’ comments on Meisi Group were one-sided. Some people said that no matter how effective Meisi Group’s products are, as long as they are willing to do something for women, they should support it.

Some people even say that buying Meisi Group products is doing good deeds for yourself, because you never know when you will need the emergency kit.

Some people with bad intentions compare Meisi Group and Xinlan Group. One cares about women, while the other scolds women online for having trouble with their periods. It is obvious who they support and who they resist.

Netizens joked that Meisi Group was making “new hard-earned money”.

The popularity has risen again, and Meisi Group’s sales have exploded. Products are sold out and have to be pre-ordered, but netizens don’t mind saying they can wait.

In the end, Cheng Ji came out and released a video, calling on everyone to consume rationally.

Hongchang , who had once given up Meisi Group , called and hoped to have in-depth cooperation.

After watching Cheng Ji’s video speech, Jiang Han angrily smashed his phone to the ground. The Cheng brothers couldn’t come up with such an idea, it must be Xu Yan’s idea.

This move is really too ruthless, it can be said that it stepped on the shoulders of Xinlan Group to rise to the top. The heat of online public opinion usually only lasts for seven days, but after seven days, Xinlan Group will be completely gone.

Jiang Han sent a message to Xu Yan on WeChat, [You are so cruel]

Xu Yan saw the message he sent, pursed her lips and ignored it. She still had a trump card in her hand that she hadn’t used yet. Given the current situation of Xinlan Group, if she used it, Xinlan Group would be in trouble.

in Xia’an City , she grew a lot. When a person has no strength, getting angry is a joke in the eyes of others.

When you are in a weak position, you have to suffer injustice, endure whatever unpleasant things others say, and wait for the opportunity to fight back.

Jiang Qinghua retired, he did not completely ignore the company. When he knew that the company was facing such a big crisis, he called his son back home.

“How did it become like this?” he asked with great sorrow.

“The public relations department couldn’t cover it up and didn’t take appropriate measures in the first place, which led to us losing the first round. Meisi Group set up a targeted public welfare project, which dealt a greater blow to us,” Jiang Han said dejectedly.

Qu Yaqiong asked in confusion, “When did Cheng Ji become so powerful? Didn’t he make the company half dead?”

“He has a sales consultant who does things unconventionally and is really amazing.” Jiang Han didn’t dare to say Xu Yan’s name, for fear that his mother would continue to question him.

Jiang Qinghua thought of Xu Yan, and a mouthful of blood blocked his chest. “It turns out that the barking dog really bites. I really underestimated her.”

Jiang Han immediately asked, “Dad, have you looked for her?”

Qu Yaqiong looked at her husband, “Who did you look for?”

Jiang Qinghua said with a sullen face, “I have met him once.”

Jiang Han was so anxious that he walked around the room twice, put his hands on his waist and asked helplessly, “Why did you go to see her? What did you say to her?”

Qu Yaqiong became anxious, “Who is it? Why are there so many messed up things?”

Jiang Han exhaled, “It’s Xu Yan, she is now a sales consultant for Meisi Group. Dad, what did you tell him?”

Jiang Qinghua kept his lips tightly shut and refused to speak. Jiang Han raised his head and sighed, “Look at this, he will definitely say the most unpleasant things.”

“Xu Yan is your former assistant, right? I remember she was quiet and always had a stern face. Is she so powerful now? Why are you looking for her, old man?” Qu Yaqiong still didn’t understand the whole story and couldn’t help asking.

Jiang Han looked at his father for a while before saying, “I belittled her the night before, and you followed up the next day and said nasty things to her. No wonder she wants to step on Xinlan Group at this time.”

Jiang Qinghua said angrily, “You are the one who is angry. If you were willing to listen and go to Gu’s house for dinner with us, would I do this?”

At this point, Qu Yaqiong finally understood the general situation. She asked her son, “Do you have feelings for Xu Yan?”

Jiang Han gave an ugly smile, “Do you think she will like me?”

Jiang Qinghua couldn’t care less about his and Xu Yan’s affairs. He asked, “The company has a bad reputation now. Do you have any way to save it?”

“I haven’t thought about it yet,” Jiang Han shook his head, “I was stunned by the Meisi Group.”

Jiang Qinghua gave him an idea, “Find a PR company and write a press release about the things that Cheng Zhiyuan and I did when we started our business together, to win some sympathy points.”

Jiang Han thought this was a great idea and immediately asked Kang Cheng to contact a powerful public relations company in Canghai City.

Two days later, a long article appeared on the Internet, telling some unknown stories about the founders of Xinlan Group and Meisi Group.

Cheng Ji saw this report and said disdainfully, “Now they know how to play the emotional card and market the Meisi Group and Xinlan Group together.”

Xu Yan also saw it, and she continued, “It is true that when you are poor in a busy city, no one cares about you, but when you are rich in a remote mountain area, you have distant relatives.”

“Isn’t that right? When Meisi Group was in its low point, Xinlan Group’s press releases almost wanted to erase that relationship.” Cheng Ji said with some regret.

Xu Yan laughed, “What are you thinking? How can we let them take over everything? You want to drag us down? Dream on!”

Later, a video was uploaded on the Internet. It was the night when Jiang Han and Jiang Yan went to the suburbs to race cars. Because of stomach discomfort, they sat on the green belt outside Xu Yan’s house waiting for Kang Cheng to pick them up.

The video title is shocking. Jiang Han, the current president of Xinlan Group, is a stalker who harasses single women in the middle of the night and waits in front of their houses.

This video was like a bomb, blowing Jiang Han to pieces.
