The next morning, sunlight pierced through the thin mist and streamed into Liu Lu's office.

She was dressed in a smart business suit, holding the final version of "Plan C" in her hand, her eyes sparkling with confidence.

At the high-level meeting, Liu Lu elaborated on the group's new development direction and outlined a grand blueprint for the future.

However, the atmosphere in the meeting room gradually became tense.

Several senior executives looked troubled and raised a variety of questions, mostly concerning the industry's old rules and potential obstacles.

“Mr. Liu, although this plan is very promising, it touches on several unwritten rules in the industry, and I’m afraid it will encounter great resistance in its implementation.” Marketing Director Li Ming pushed up his glasses, his tone worried.

“Yes, Mr. Liu, we’ve tried similar innovations before, but we all failed because of these limitations,” Wang Qiang, the technical director, chimed in.

Liu Lu frowned slightly. She had long anticipated encountering such an obstacle, but she hadn't expected it to be so strong.

She looked around and said firmly, "I know this won't be easy, but that's precisely why we must rise to the challenge! These old rules have bound the industry for too long; it's time to break them!"

However, even greater challenges lie ahead.

After the meeting, Secretary Chen hurriedly entered the office, his face grave, and handed Liu Lu a document: "President Liu, please take a look at this."

The documents show that several competitors have joined forces to secretly resist Liu Lu Group's new business.

They used their connections within the industry to put pressure on Liu Lu Group's partners and even spread false negative information in an attempt to damage Liu Lu Group's reputation.

Seeing all this, Liu Lu did not show the slightest panic.

She put down the documents, a cold smile playing on her lips. "Looks like they're still not giving up." She picked up her phone and dialed a number. "Contact Attorney Wang for me..."

Meanwhile, Liu Bei was excitedly sharing her new painting with Secretary Chen.

In the painting, a woman wearing a Superman cape is bravely fighting a monster.

“Aunt Chen, look, this is my mom! She’s my superhero!” Liu Bei said proudly, pointing to the woman in the painting.

Secretary Chen looked at the innocent and carefree Liu Bei, but a shadow fell over his heart.

She knew that Liu Lu was about to face an even tougher battle.

She gently patted Liu Bei's head and forced a smile: "Yes, your mother is the best!"

Inside the office, Liu Lu hung up the phone, a glint of shrewdness flashing in her eyes. She whispered, "This time, I'll show them what real strength is..." She picked up "Plan C" from the table, a barely perceptible glint of cold light in her eyes, and then gently placed it deep inside the drawer.

Liu Lu suspended the progress of "Plan C," which immediately caused a stir within the group.

Marketing Director Li Ming anxiously knocked on Liu Lu's office door: "President Liu, now is a crucial moment to seize the market opportunity. Why suddenly stop promoting new businesses? Our competitors have already started to act. If we don't fight back, we may lose..."

Liu Lu raised her hand to interrupt him, her face still bearing a calm smile: "Director Li, don't worry, I have my own plans." She didn't explain much, only asking Li Ming to continue monitoring market trends and report back as needed.

Although Li Ming had doubts, he still obeyed Liu Lu's instructions.

After leaving the office, he couldn't help but shake his head, wondering, "What exactly is President Liu up to?"

It was late at night, but the light in Liu Lu's office was still on.

She rubbed her sore eyes and leaned back wearily in her chair.

The table was piled high with documents, but she couldn't concentrate on reading a single one.

The relentless pressure from competitors and the doubts within the group weighed heavily on her, making it hard to breathe.

Just then, a soft knock on the door broke the silence of the office.

Liu Lu looked up and saw her daughter, Liu Bei, standing timidly at the door, wearing pajamas and holding a cup of hot milk.

"Mom, aren't you asleep yet?" Liu Bei walked over to Liu Lu and handed her a glass of milk. "Have a glass of milk before you start working."

Liu Lu took the milk, a warm feeling welling up inside her.

She patted Liu Bei's head and forced a smile: "Thank you, baby."

Liu Bei took a neatly folded piece of paper out of her pocket and stuffed it into Liu Lu's hand: "Mom, this is something I wrote for you. You must read it!"

Liu Lu opened the note, on which were written a few words in crooked handwriting: "Mom, you're the best! Keep it up!"

Looking at her daughter's childish handwriting, Liu Lu's eyes welled up with tears, and her fatigue vanished instantly.

She hugged Liu Bei tightly and gently kissed her forehead: "Thank you, baby. Mommy will definitely do her best!"

The next morning, Liu Lu summoned Secretary Chen and whispered a few instructions in her ear.

Secretary Chen's expression changed slightly after hearing this, but he quickly regained his composure and nodded firmly: "I understand, President Liu."

Watching Secretary Chen's departing figure, Liu Lu smiled mysteriously: "The show has only just begun..." She picked up the phone on the table and dialed a number: "Hello, help me check..." Secretary Chen was indeed Liu Lu's right-hand man, and his efficiency was extremely high.

In less than a week, she secretly collected the financial statements and internal documents of several competitors.

After careful analysis, Secretary Chen discovered that two of the companies had committed serious financial fraud and tax evasion, while the other company was mired in a huge debt crisis and could collapse at any time.

This report gave Liu Lu a glimmer of hope; she felt as if she had seen a ray of light at the end of the tunnel.

Instead of a head-on confrontation, it's better to flank them from the side and catch them off guard.

She immediately convened her core team and began to develop a detailed counterattack plan.

In the conference room, Liu Lu spoke eloquently, every word she uttered brimming with power, and every glance sparkling with wisdom.

“We won’t confront them head-on; that would only result in mutual destruction.” Liu Lu pointed to the financial data on the projection screen. “Their weakness lies here. What we need to do is strike precisely and make them reap what they sow!”

Over the next few days, Liu Lu's team worked intensively.

They contacted the relevant regulatory authorities and anonymously reported their competitors' violations.

At the same time, they also spread these negative messages through various channels, causing an uproar in the industry.

The competitors were clearly caught off guard by Liu Lu's unexpected move.

Their stock price began to plummet, partners terminated contracts one after another, and there was widespread anxiety within the company.

With the building on the verge of collapse, the heads of several companies held an emergency meeting to discuss countermeasures.

Just as Liu Lu was preparing to launch the final blow and completely crush her opponent, Secretary Chen suddenly received a mysterious phone call.

She walked to Liu Lu's side with a grave expression and said in a low voice, "President Liu, things have changed..."

Liu Lu frowned, a sense of foreboding washing over her.

She answered the phone, and heard the other person say, "Mr. Liu, we know what you're going to do next..." The voice on the other end of the line was deep and cold, with a hint of threat.

Liu Lu gripped the phone tightly, a cold glint flashing in her eyes.
