A flicker of hesitation crossed Chen Xiaoyan's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by resolve: "Ah Jin, the business world is like a battlefield; it's either you or me. It's too late to say these things now. I won't let go of the Hongxing Biscuit Factory order."

Li Jin looked at Chen Xiaoyan, her heart filled with mixed emotions. After a moment's thought, she said, "Sister Xiaoyan, I don't want to be your enemy. How about we compete fairly? I believe that as long as we rely on our true abilities and let product quality and service speak for themselves, consumers will ultimately make the right choice."

Chen Xiaoyan raised an eyebrow, a hint of provocation in her eyes: "Fair competition? Fine, I'd like to see if you, who's been pampered by life in the compound, can still compete as hard as before."

Li Jin smiled gently, her smile revealing confidence and determination: "Then let's wait and see. Sister Xiaoyan, I hope that no matter who wins or loses, we can hold our ground."

Emerging from the teahouse, Li Jin stood facing the wind on the street, silently resolving to lead his team to improve product quality and optimize service, winning back the market with their strength. Chen Xiaoyan, watching Li Jin's departing figure, had a complex expression; the cigarette in her hand glowed and dimmed in the wind, lost in thought.

Back at the company, Li Jin immediately convened a team meeting, explaining the current challenges and coping strategies in detail. Inspired by her determination, the team members all expressed their willingness to give their all. In the days that followed, Li Jin and her team worked day and night, developing new packaging technologies, renegotiating raw material prices with suppliers, and optimizing production processes to shorten delivery times.

Meanwhile, Chen Xiaoyan was not letting up either; she was also working hard to solidify existing clients and expand new business channels. A war without gunfire was quietly breaking out between the two former friends.

Jin Yuanyuan is also working hard at the packaging material factory. She's improving packaging design to make the biscuit packaging more attractive and practical, while actively negotiating with major transportation companies to reduce transportation costs and improve delivery efficiency. She's also collecting market feedback to provide a basis for further optimization of the product packaging.

As time went on, both sides produced new results. Hongxing Biscuit Factory held a bidding conference, and Li Jin and Chen Xiaoyan both brought their teams' carefully prepared proposals.

Li Jin looked at Su Yue standing next to Chen Xiaoyan and seemed to understand why Chen Xiaoyan was targeting her. Jin Yuanyuan also saw Su Yue, and a hint of understanding appeared in her eyes.

Su Yue didn't say a word the whole time! It was as if she didn't know Li Jin and Jin Yuanyuan at all!

The atmosphere was tense and oppressive, with both teams on high alert. During the presentation segment, Li Jin's team won over many judges with their innovative packaging design, optimized cost control solutions, and excellent service commitments. Chen Xiaoyan's team, not to be outdone, countered with their established market channels and stable product supply advantages.

Just when the two sides were evenly matched, a judge suddenly raised a question about environmentally friendly packaging. This happened to be a key area of ​​research for Li Jin's team recently. They elaborated on the concept, feasibility, and role of environmentally friendly packaging in enhancing a company's image, which impressed everyone present. Ultimately, Hongxing Biscuit Factory decided to award the order to Li Jin's company.

Chen Xiaoyan looked at Li Jin and sneered, "Mr. Li, our competition has only just begun." After saying that, she led her team away.

Li Jin watched Chen Xiaoyan's departing figure, her heart filled with emotion. However, she had no time to dwell on these feelings, because the execution of the order was the key.
