Liu Lu put down the phone, her face grave.

The sudden interruption of Secretary Chen's voice on the other end of the phone indicated that the seriousness of the situation far exceeded expectations.

The alliance of rivals, like a long-dormant beast, has finally revealed its fangs.

A chill ran from my feet to my whole body, and the office lights seemed especially cold at that moment.

"Contact Expert Li immediately!" Liu Lu ordered decisively, her tone carrying an unquestionable authority.

She understood that this was a battle of life and death, and there was no room for hesitation.

Expert Li arrived quickly, his expression equally grave.

"Mr. Liu, we've detected that the other side is mobilizing a large amount of funds, with their target being our core project." He handed Liu Lu a report, the densely packed data showing the aggressive moves of their adversary.

Liu Lu quickly scanned the report, her brows furrowed.

The rival alliance came prepared this time, using almost all its resources in an attempt to crush Liu Lu's group in one fell swoop.

The immense pressure weighed on Liu Lu's shoulders like a mountain, making her feel suffocated.

"They want a quick victory!" A glint of light flashed in Liu Lu's eyes as she quickly made her judgment.

"Notify all department heads to convene an emergency meeting immediately!"

The atmosphere in the meeting room was heavy, and the faces of the department heads were filled with worry.

The strength of their opponents left them feeling powerless, as if shrouded in darkness, with no hope in sight.

"I know everyone is worried." Liu Lu looked around at everyone, her tone firm, "But we can't give up! We've faced countless challenges before, and we've always turned adversity into safety. This time will be no different!"

Liu Lu's speech ignited everyone's fighting spirit, and the flame of hope was rekindled in the conference room.

They began actively discussing countermeasures and looking for a breakthrough.

However, at that moment, expert Li suddenly exclaimed, "Mr. Liu, something terrible has happened! Our system has been attacked!"

On the screen, the code representing the group's core technologies is being rapidly deciphered.

Liu Lu's heart sank suddenly...

“Beibei, Mommy…” Liu Bei hugged Liu Lu tightly, her little face pressed against her shoulder, and said in a childish voice, “Mommy, you are the best! Don’t be afraid!” This tender voice contained great strength, like a warm current flowing into Liu Lu’s heart, dispelling the chill that enveloped her.

Her daughter's trust and reliance rekindled Liu Lu's fighting spirit.

She hugged her daughter tightly and kissed her forehead.

"Beibei, Mommy will definitely win!"

The entire staff of Liu Lu Group is like a finely tuned machine, with each department demonstrating exceptional combat effectiveness.

Marketing Director Lisa swiftly launched a series of highly attractive marketing plans, rapidly seizing market share; R&D Director Wang led his team to work day and night to optimize products and continuously improve technological barriers; and CFO Zhao precisely controlled the cash flow to ensure the group's stability amidst fierce competition.

The group's unity and efficiency caught its competitors off guard, and those who were initially confident of victory began to feel uneasy.

The opponent's attacks are becoming increasingly fierce, and the system's protective walls are on the verge of collapse.

Expert Li's forehead was beaded with sweat as his fingers flew across the keyboard, trying to fend off the intrusion.

The atmosphere was extremely tense; everyone held their breath, as if a taut string could snap at any moment.

At this critical moment, expert Li suddenly shouted, "It's done!" He excitedly pointed to the screen, where lines of code poured down like a waterfall, quickly repairing the damaged system.

The enemy's attack was completely thwarted, and their plot ultimately failed.

Liu Lu breathed a sigh of relief, a victorious smile spreading across her face.

She walked to the window, looking down at the brightly lit city, her heart filled with ambition and aspirations.

However, just then, Secretary Chen rushed in, pale-faced and with a trembling voice: "President Liu...they..." Secretary Chen staggered to Liu Lu's side, his voice trembling so much it was almost inaudible: "President Liu...they've turned...Engineer Wang..."

Liu Lu's expression changed drastically, but she quickly regained her composure.

Engineer Wang is the head of the R&D department and a key technical figure in the group.

His betrayal was undoubtedly a fatal blow.

The meeting room erupted in uproar, with everyone discussing the matter, and the atmosphere instantly turned icy.

Some were terrified, some were angry, and most were incredulous.

"Impossible!" Expert Li stood up abruptly, vehemently retorting, "Engineer Wang has been with me for so many years, he would never betray General Manager Liu or the company!"

Liu Lu raised her hand to signal everyone to be quiet, her sharp eyes sweeping over each person as she said in a deep voice, "I know everyone is shocked, but now is not the time to assign blame. The most urgent task is to stabilize the situation and find a solution."

She walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window, looked down at the brightly lit city, took a deep breath, and quickly made a decision in her mind.

Wang Gong's betrayal was indeed unexpected, but that doesn't mean she was helpless.

Even at the very beginning of her entrepreneurial journey, Liu Lu knew that the business world was like a battlefield, fraught with danger.

To cope with various emergencies, she had long ago established a comprehensive emergency response mechanism within the group and secretly cultivated a loyal and reliable technical team.

“Expert Li,” Liu Lu turned around, her tone firm, “Immediately activate Plan B.”

Expert Li was stunned for a moment, then a look of realization flashed in his eyes, and he immediately accepted the order and left.

Plan B is Liu Lu's secret weapon for dealing with the worst-case scenario.

It includes a completely new technical solution and a hidden technical team.

Once activated, it will completely change the course of the war.

The rival alliance thought that by turning Wang Gong against them, they could control the whole situation, but little did they know that they had already fallen into Liu Lu's trap.

Wang Gong's "betrayal" was actually a carefully planned scheme by Liu Lu to lure out the enemy and expose the competitor's conspiracy to the light of day.

Just as the rival alliance was gloating and thought victory was in their grasp, Liu Lu Group suddenly released a brand new product.

This product boasts advanced technology and powerful functions, instantly igniting the market.

The rival alliance was caught off guard, their products instantly lost their competitiveness, and their market share was rapidly eroded.

At the same time, Liu Lu exposed the internal conflicts within the rival alliance, causing them to become suspicious of each other and engage in constant infighting.

The once united alliance instantly fell apart.

Liu Lu watched all this with a barely perceptible smile on her lips.

She walked to her daughter's side, gently stroked her hair, and said softly, "Beibei, look, Mommy won."

Suddenly, the office door was flung open. Secretary Chen, pale-faced, stammered, "General Manager Liu... Engineer Wang... he..." She trailed off, "Engineer Wang..."

He committed suicide.

The huge impact made Liu Lu stagger and almost fall.

She never imagined that Wang Gonghui would choose such a path of no return.

She always thought that Wang Gong's "betrayal" was just a temporary measure to better protect herself and her family.

The office was deathly silent; everyone was stunned by the sudden news.

Expert Li stared wide-eyed in disbelief. He couldn't accept this fact. He had always regarded Engineer Wang as a brother, but he never expected that he would end his life in this way.

Liu Lu suppressed her grief and quickly composed herself.

She understood that now was not the time for grief; she had to handle Wang Gong's funeral arrangements as soon as possible and stabilize the morale of the group.

She arranged for Secretary Chen to handle Wang Gong's funeral and to comfort his family.

At the same time, she convened the group's senior management to redeploy the strategy and ensure the group's normal operation.

Although Wang Gong's death dealt a huge blow to Liu Lu, she did not collapse because of it.

She knew she had to be stronger to lead the group to an even brighter future.

In the days that followed, Liu Lu worked even harder, devoting all her energy to the group's development.

Under Liu Lu's leadership, Liu Lu Group overcame numerous difficulties and finally gained a foothold in the field of new technologies, becoming a true leader in the industry.

Standing atop the group's building, overlooking the bustling city, Liu Lu felt a surge of pride and a sense of accomplishment.

Just then, Secretary Chen walked over with a letter and handed it to Liu Lu: "President Liu, this was just received, it's from overseas..."

Liu Lu took the envelope. There was no signature or address on the envelope, only a few simple words: To Ms. Liu Lu.

She slowly opened the envelope, pulled out the letter, and her gaze fell on the first line of text:

"We've been keeping an eye on you..."

Liu Lu's pupils suddenly contracted.
