Looking at the still chaotic scene, Meng Yanchen felt a surge of worry. Fan Shengmei walked to his side and whispered, "Hang in there a little longer, there's bound to be a way." Just then, a police siren wailed in the distance. Meng Yanchen and Fan Shengmei exchanged a glance, a glimmer of hope flashing in their eyes. Could a turning point be on the horizon? However, they still didn't know what the siren meant—was it a real rescue, or a new twist of fate?

As the sirens grew louder, police cars sped towards them like black cheetahs, their sharp sirens piercing the tense air. Meng Yanchen and Fan Shengmei watched as the police cars quickly stopped around the press conference venue. The doors burst open, and officers in crisp uniforms, their expressions serious, rushed out with practiced efficiency. Their steps were synchronized, their leather shoes clicking crisply on the ground, seemingly bringing a powerful and orderly force to the chaos.

The police officer leading the team, his expression stern, shouted through a megaphone, "Listen up, everyone! Stop your illegal activities immediately!" His voice, like a booming bell, echoed around the area. Those members of the mysterious investment group who had been frantically attacking the security lines showed a hint of panic upon hearing this authoritative voice. However, some stubborn elements remained, unwilling to give up, and attempted a final act of resistance.

The police acted swiftly, charging towards the troublemakers with skillful maneuvering and fearless courage. A cacophony of shoving and shouts filled the air. Meng Yanchen watched as one officer nimbly dodged a baton swung by a troublemaker, swiftly subduing him with a swift tackle. Another officer deftly deflected an attack from another troublemaker, handcuffing him. A surge of admiration welled up in Meng Yanchen's heart, along with a sigh of relief; the situation was gradually coming under control.

Fan Shengmei watched the police officers' actions with gratitude in her eyes. She knew this was a crucial opportunity for them to escape their predicament. At the same time, the technicians on site were also encouraged and sped up the equipment repair. Fan Shengmei turned to the technical team and encouraged them, "Everyone, keep up the good work! The police have brought the situation outside under control; we need to fix the equipment as quickly as possible!" The technicians nodded, their hands moving even faster, beads of sweat rolling down their foreheads, but they didn't bother wiping them away, focusing intently on the instruments and wiring in their hands.

Meanwhile, in another luxurious conference room in the city, Meng Yanchen's communication with the overseas consortium also achieved a major breakthrough. The conference room was softly lit, and Meng Yanchen and representatives of the overseas consortium sat around a large conference table. Meng Yanchen, dressed in an impeccably tailored suit, stood tall and straight, his gaze firm and sincere as he looked at the representatives opposite him, reiterating the advantages of the Fu Group and the potential risks of cooperating with the mysterious investment group.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the actions of this mysterious investment group have seriously violated business ethics. Cooperating with them will not only damage your conglomerate's reputation but also bring huge economic risks. Our Fu Group, on the other hand, has always adhered to the principles of integrity and sustainable development. Cooperating with us is the wise choice." Meng Yanchen's voice was steady and powerful, echoing in the conference room.

Representatives from the overseas consortium whispered amongst themselves. One of them, with graying hair and sharp eyes, frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and said, "Mr. Meng, what you say does make some sense. We also have concerns about some of the recent actions of the mysterious investment group." Meng Yanchen was delighted, knowing there was a turning point. He pressed his advantage, "Your consortium has always been known in the business world for its stability and foresight. I believe you will make the right choice."

After intense discussion and deliberation, the representatives of the overseas consortium finally reached a consensus. The gray-haired representative stood up, smiled, and extended his hand to Meng Yanchen: "Mr. Meng, we have decided to reduce our support for the mysterious investment group. We hope to have more opportunities for cooperation in the future." Meng Yanchen smiled with satisfaction and firmly grasped the other's hand: "Thank you very much for your consortium's trust. I believe our cooperation will definitely yield fruitful results."

Upon receiving this news, Meng Yanchen immediately rushed back to the press conference venue. By then, the police had brought most of the troublemakers under control, and the area around the venue had returned to relative calm. Meng Yanchen found Fan Shengmei and excitedly said, "Xiaomei, there's good news from the overseas consortium! They've decided to reduce their support for the mysterious investment group!" Fan Shengmei's eyes lit up with surprise, and she excitedly said, "That's wonderful! This is double happiness! We must seize this opportunity and speed up the preparations for the press conference."

Fan Shengmei quickly assembled her public relations team and technical staff to double-check all preparations. "Is the press release ready?" Fan Shengmei asked the head of the public relations team with a determined look. "Everything's ready, Ms. Fan. We're just waiting for the press conference to begin," the head replied confidently. Fan Shengmei then turned to the technical staff: "What about the equipment? Are you sure it's functioning properly?" The technician wiped the sweat from his brow and nodded, "No problem, Ms. Fan. Everything has been tested and is ready to use."

Fan Shengmei checked the time; the press conference was almost scheduled to start. She took a deep breath and said to everyone, "Okay, let's do one last check to make sure everything is perfect." Meng Yanchen was also assisting her, carefully checking the venue setup, from the stage construction to the seating arrangement, leaving no detail overlooked.

Under the guidance of Fan Shengmei and Meng Yanchen, everyone was carrying out the final preparations in a tense but orderly manner. Inside the venue, staff members hurried about, arranging materials and adjusting the lighting. On the stage, the huge screen was already lit up, displaying the theme image of the press conference. A slight hum came from the sound system, as technicians were conducting final sound effects tests.

As the time drew near, invited media reporters and guests from various sectors began to enter. They were dressed appropriately, their faces showing curiosity and anticipation. Meng Yanchen and Fan Shengmei stood at the entrance to greet the guests. Meng Yanchen smiled and shook hands with the guests, while Fan Shengmei warmly guided them to their seats.

However, Fan Shengmei still harbored some unease. Although everything seemed to be progressing well, the mysterious investment group would not give up easily. Did they have other schemes up their sleeves? Would the press conference successfully expose their plot? These questions kept swirling in Fan Shengmei's mind.

Meng Yanchen seemed to sense Fan Shengmei's worry. He gently took her hand and whispered, "Don't worry, we've made thorough preparations, everything will go smoothly." Looking into Meng Yanchen's determined eyes, Fan Shengmei's worries lessened slightly. She nodded and said, "Yes, I believe we can succeed."

The press conference was about to begin when Fan Shengmei and Meng Yanchen walked onto the stage. All eyes of the guests were on them. Fan Shengmei took a deep breath, picked up the microphone, and said clearly and forcefully, "Distinguished guests, welcome to today's press conference. Today, we will reveal some previously unknown truths..."

Meanwhile, in a dark corner of the city, the top executives of the mysterious investment group were gathered, their faces grim as they watched the live broadcast of the press conference. One of them gritted his teeth and said, "I never expected they could actually contact the police and persuade the overseas consortium. But this isn't over yet. We can't just sit here and wait to be defeated; we must find a way to turn the situation around." The others nodded in agreement, their eyes revealing resentment and ruthlessness. What new conspiracy would they devise this time? Whether the press conference would successfully expose the mysterious investment group's plot remained to be seen.
