Transmigrated into a young peasant widow, in order to live well, break away from the greedy in-laws, and live a prosperous life, she works hard to raise her child.
Many troubles cluster at a ...
Her daughter…
That is her greatest weakness.
The mysterious figure's voice was hoarse and deep, like the hiss of a venomous snake, echoing in the room.
Those previously dejected faces instantly lit up, their eyes gleaming with greed.
Meanwhile, Liu Lu was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the bustling city traffic.
A new business model is emerging like mushrooms after rain, rapidly eroding her market share.
Her original customers were attracted by this more convenient and affordable new model, and her order volume plummeted like an avalanche.
The figures on the financial statements were alarming, and a sense of unease and panic permeated the group.
At the high-level meeting, department heads offered various suggestions, but none of them could effectively stop the decline.
Liu Lu rubbed her temples, feeling a wave of fatigue.
She understood that changes had to be made as soon as possible, or the group would face annihilation.
She already had a bold plan in mind, a plan that could turn the tide.
However, this plan also comes with huge risks; if it fails, the group will never recover.
Late at night, Liu Lu's study was still brightly lit.
She repeatedly deduced the new business model, calculating the risks and benefits of each step.
Outside the window, the city's hustle and bustle gradually subsided, with only the occasional car horn in the distance emphasizing the tranquility of the study.
Liu Lu put down her pen, walked to the window, looked at the dark night sky, and took a deep breath.
Just then, the door was gently pushed open, and a small figure peeked in.
It was Liu Bei. She rubbed her sleepy eyes, walked over to Liu Lu, and gently tugged at her sleeve.
"Mom, aren't you going to sleep yet?"
Liu Lu looked down at her daughter, her eyes filled with tenderness.
"Mom still has some work to do, baby, you go to sleep first."
Liu Bei shook her head and reached out her small hand to stroke Liu Lu's cheek.
"Mom, you look very tired. Don't work too hard."
Liu Lu held her daughter in her arms, feeling the warmth emanating from her, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart.
She knew that no matter how many difficulties and obstacles lay ahead, she could not give up.
For her daughter and for the company, she must bravely face all challenges.
"Mom, do you remember what you told me before?" Liu Bei's voice was young but firm. "You said that no matter what difficulties we encounter, we must face them bravely and never give up."
Looking into her daughter's clear eyes, Liu Lu's heart skipped a beat. "Baby..."
Liu Bei hugged Liu Lu tightly and whispered in her ear, "Mom, you were so amazing before, you can definitely do it now!"
Liu Bei's youthful yet firm encouragement was like a small spark, igniting the fighting spirit in Liu Lu's heart that was about to be extinguished.
She held her daughter tightly, feeling the continuous warmth, and the weariness in her eyes was gradually replaced by determination.
The next day, Liu Lu convened the group's top executives and announced her bold plan: to use their own weapons against them.
She plans to exploit loopholes in her competitor's new business model to launch a better product and completely crush her rival.
This plan immediately sparked heated discussions among high-level officials.
Some people support it, some oppose it, and most are just watching and worrying.
After all, this is a high-stakes gamble, with the future of the entire group at stake.
Liu Lu ignored these dissenting voices and steadfastly carried out her plan.
She led her team to work day and night, analyzing market data, studying user needs, and continuously optimizing product design.
Meanwhile, competitors also noticed Liu Lu's actions and began to increase their publicity efforts in an attempt to gain the upper hand.
For a time, market competition entered a fierce stage.
Liu Lu was not intimidated by her opponent's actions. She calmly and collectedly responded, advancing her plan step by step.
She knew that this competition was not just a business contest, but also a battle of will and courage.
After several months of intensive research and development, Liu Lu's new product was finally launched.
This product not only incorporates the advantages of competitors' new business models, but also improves upon their vulnerabilities, making it more convenient, more affordable, and, most importantly, better suited to user needs.
The new product quickly gained market recognition upon its launch, with orders skyrocketing and the group's stock price soaring.
Just when Liu Lu thought victory was in her grasp, an unexpected phone call shattered the brief peace.
"Mr. Liu, something's happened..." The voice on the other end of the phone was anxious and panicked, "Our new product... has been copied!"
Liu Lu's face turned pale instantly. She gripped the phone tightly, her palms sweating.
"Who is it?" she practically spat out the words through clenched teeth.
"I don't know yet..." The voice on the other end of the phone was filled with helplessness and fear, "but their knock-off products are cheaper than ours, and their functions are almost identical..."
Liu Lu took a deep breath, trying to stay calm.
She knew that the real challenge was just beginning.
She hung up the phone, walked to the window, and looked at the brightly lit city, her eyes shining with determination.
"It seems..." she murmured to herself, "that this game is getting more and more interesting..."
Liu Lu's new product swept through the market like a hurricane.
Its convenient operation, affordable price, and features that precisely meet user needs have made it a favorite among consumers.
Those competitors who were initially smug, thinking they had seized the opportunity of the times, had no time to celebrate their victory before they discovered that their carefully built business empires were collapsing at an alarming rate.
Orders plummeted, stock prices crashed, and the company was in a state of panic, with waves of resignations.
Liu Lu pressed her advantage, increasing promotional efforts while continuously optimizing products to consolidate market share.
She is like a seasoned hunter, delivering a fatal blow when her opponent is at their weakest.
She made high-profile appearances at various business summits and gave media interviews, sharing her success stories without reservation, which further enhanced the group's brand image and influence.
The opponents were naturally unwilling to accept defeat.
They held an emergency meeting to discuss countermeasures.
Some suggested lowering the price, some suggested imitating Liu Lu's products, and some even suggested maliciously attacking Liu Lu's group's servers.
However, all of these proposals were rejected.
Lowering prices will only lead to a decrease in profits, imitating products takes time, and it is very likely that Liu Lu will surpass them again, while maliciously attacking servers will violate the law, which is not worth the risk.
Just when they were at their wits' end, a mysterious figure walked into the conference room.
He was tall, dressed in a black suit, and wore sunglasses, exuding a cold and sinister aura.
"Gentlemen," his deep voice echoed in the conference room, "it seems we all need some... unconventional methods."
He took a document out of his briefcase and placed it on the table.
“This is Liu Lu Group’s core trade secret,” he said with a sinister smile. “With it, we can completely destroy Liu Lu.”
The meeting room fell silent; everyone held their breath, their eyes fixed on the document.
They knew what that meant.
This is not just a business competition, but a war without gunfire.
At the same time, the phone rang suddenly in Liu Lu's office.
Liu Lu picked up the phone and heard her secretary's anxious voice: "President Liu, something terrible has happened! Our server... has been hacked!" Liu Lu's expression changed, and she stood up abruptly.
"I understand." Her tone was icy, a cold glint flashing in her eyes.
“Tell the technical department to activate the emergency plan immediately. Also…” she paused, her tone becoming even more stern, “Investigate! I need to know who did this!”
After hanging up the phone, Liu Lu walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, looked down at the brightly lit city, and a cold smile appeared on her lips.
"Want to play with me?" she muttered to herself. "Then let's see who wins..."
Suddenly, the office door was pushed open, and the assistant rushed in looking flustered.
"Mr. Liu..." he gasped for breath, "I just received news... someone has leaked our core trade secrets..."
Liu Lu turned around, her gaze sharp as a knife. "Who is it?"
The assistant said in a trembling voice, "...It's still...it's still unclear..."
Liu Lu took a deep breath, suppressing her anger, and slowly said, "I understand, you can go now."
After her assistant left, Liu Lu walked to her desk, picked up a document, and saw the word "Top Secret" clearly written on it.
She opened the document, her gaze sweeping over its contents, her expression growing increasingly grim.
"Fine, very well..." She slammed the file on the table, her eyes burning with rage. "Since you want to play, then I'll play with you to the very end!"
She picked up the phone, dialed a number, and said in an icy tone, "Activate Plan B..." Liu Lu's new product spread like wildfire, rapidly devouring the market share of her competitors.
She pressed her advantage, not only consolidating her existing customer base but also actively contacting partners who had been poached by competitors with high-priced offers.
Liu Lu offered more enticing terms, appealing to both emotions and reason, and analyzed the current market situation and future development trends.
She confidently told them that only by cooperating with her could they remain invincible in the upcoming market competition.
These partners, who already harbored resentment towards their competitors for their betrayal, now saw Liu Lu's decisiveness and strong market control, and they all switched sides and returned to Liu Lu's camp.
Even more so, some people proactively provided Liu Lu with some of their competitors' trade secrets as a way of expressing their loyalty.
Liu Lu collected and organized this information one by one, using it as leverage in future negotiations.
Seeing her opponent retreating steadily, Liu Lu did not become complacent.
She knew all too well that this was only the first round of victory.
The opponent will not give up easily; even greater challenges lie ahead.
She convened the group's senior management and calmly analyzed the current situation.
"Although we won the first battle, this is just the beginning. Our opponents are deeply entrenched, and they will certainly fight back at all costs. We must be fully prepared."
As Liu Lu had predicted, her opponent was not defeated by the defeat.
They integrated all their resources, preparing to leverage the market, public opinion...
"It seems the real show is just beginning." Liu Lu gazed at the dazzling night view outside the window, a cold glint in her eyes. She picked up the phone. "Notify all department heads to hold an emergency meeting at eight o'clock tomorrow morning..." She paused, her tone becoming even colder. "Tell them to bring their respective battle plans."
A positive reply came from the other end of the phone: "Yes, Mr. Liu!"
Liu Lu hung up the phone, walked to the window, looked into the distance, and muttered to herself, "Want to play big? I'll play along to the end!" She turned around, picked up the red wine on the table, and gently swirled it. The scarlet liquid gleamed coldly under the light.
"The game is only just beginning..." She downed the drink in one gulp, her eyes revealing unwavering determination and confidence.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the office door. "Mr. Liu..." the secretary's voice trembled slightly.
"Come in."
The secretary pushed open the door and entered, her face pale. "I just...I just received the news..."
Liu Lu put down her wine glass, her eyes sharp. "Speak."
The secretary took a deep breath and said in a trembling voice, "Master...Master he..."
