Meng Yanchen gently released Fan Shengmei, looked into her eyes, and said earnestly, "Give me some time. I will definitely resolve the company's issues and also sort out our problems." Fan Shengmei nodded slightly, her eyes filled with hesitation and expectation. Meng Yanchen turned and left, his steps firm. Fan Shengmei watched his retreating figure, her heart filled with mixed emotions, wondering what awaited them.

The following morning, sunlight streamed through the gaps in the blinds, illuminating Meng Yanchen's desk in his office. Meng Yanchen sat at his desk, his gaze fixed intently on the rapidly changing market data on the computer screen, his brow furrowed and lips pressed tightly together. The Fu Group's stock price was plummeting under the onslaught of its competitors, and its market share was being rapidly eroded.

A rapid knocking broke the silence of the office. Meng Yanchen didn't even look up, saying in a low voice, "Come in." His assistant rushed in, placing a stack of documents on the table, his voice anxious: "Mr. Meng, the situation is dire. Our competitors have launched similar products at lower prices, which has seriously impacted the progress of several of our projects. Many partners are hesitant, and some smaller projects have even stalled." Meng Yanchen picked up the documents and quickly flipped through them, his face growing increasingly grim with each page he read.

"Notify all department heads that a meeting will be held in the conference room in ten minutes." Meng Yanchen slammed the documents heavily on the table, stood up, and revealed a fierce look in his eyes.

Ten minutes later, the atmosphere in the conference room was oppressive and suffocating. Meng Yanchen stood in front of the projector, his face grim: "Everyone is aware of the current situation. The mysterious investment group and our competitors have joined forces to launch a full-scale attack on us. Their low-price strategy has indeed caused us considerable trouble, but we cannot sit idly by and wait to be defeated." Meng Yanchen's voice was deep and powerful, his gaze sweeping over everyone present.

"R&D department, intensify your efforts in developing new products, aiming to far surpass competitors in both functionality and quality. Marketing department, reassess your market strategy, explore potential markets, and expand your customer base. Sales department, find ways to retain existing customers and improve customer satisfaction." Meng Yanchen methodically assigned tasks, and each department head looked serious as they diligently took notes.

“President Meng, developing new products requires time and a large amount of capital investment, and the company’s cash flow is currently…” The finance manager looked troubled. Meng Yanchen frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then said, “I will find a way to solve the funding problem. You just need to focus on your work and make sure to produce results in the shortest possible time.”

After the meeting, Meng Yanchen returned to his office and continued to study his competitor's business tactics. He carefully compared the data of both companies' products, trying to find any flaws. Just then, his phone rang; it was Fan Shengmei calling.

"Yanchen, are you... alright?" Fan Shengmei's voice carried a hint of worry. Meng Yanchen felt a warmth in his heart and said softly, "I'm fine, don't worry. I'll handle things at the company." Fan Shengmei was silent for a moment, then said, "Seeing you working so hard makes me feel terrible. I don't know if I should stay by your side, if I'll cause you more trouble..." Meng Yanchen interrupted her, "Xiaomei, don't think like that. Your staying by my side is the greatest support you can give me. Believe me, everything will be alright."

After hanging up the phone, Fan Shengmei sat on the sofa, her heart filled with conflicting emotions. She looked out at the bustling city, the traffic and people coming and going. She knew that Meng Yanchen was facing immense pressure, and she seemed to have become a burden to him. But she didn't want to leave Meng Yanchen; she loved him and wanted to face the difficulties with him.

Meanwhile, Meng Yanchen threw himself into his work. He directed his team in developing new products while secretly sending people to investigate the competitors' supply chains and sales channels. After several days of effort, the R&D team finally had some new ideas, and a glimmer of hope flashed in Meng Yanchen's eyes as he looked at the design drawings.

However, the competitors seemed to have noticed the Fu Group's actions and began to intensify their attacks. They not only continued to dump their products at low prices in the market, but also smeared the Fu Group in the media, claiming that the Fu Group's products had quality problems, causing some unsuspecting consumers to lose trust in the Fu Group.

Upon learning of this news, Meng Yanchen was furious. He decided to hold a press conference to directly address these rumors and announce the Fu Group's new product development plan, demonstrating the Fu Group's strength and determination to the public.

On the day of the press conference, the venue was packed with reporters and people from all walks of life. Meng Yanchen, dressed in a sharp suit, stood solemnly on the stage. "Recently, the Fu Group has encountered some malicious attacks. Some people have launched similar products at low prices in the market, attempting to disrupt market order, while simultaneously smearing us in the media. But I want to tell everyone that the Fu Group has always adhered to the principle of quality first, and our products can withstand any test." Meng Yanchen's voice was firm and powerful, resonating throughout the venue through the microphone.

"Next, I will introduce the new product that the Fu Group will be launching soon. This product features significant breakthroughs in both technology and functionality, and we are confident that we can regain our market share." Behind Meng Yanchen, a large screen displayed detailed information about the new product and its design concept. Reporters in the audience snapped photos, their flashes going off frequently.

After the press conference, Meng Yanchen returned to his company and threw himself back into his demanding work. He knew this was only the first step in his counterattack, and even greater challenges awaited him. Meanwhile, after several days of deliberation, Fan Shengmei finally made up her mind: she would return to Meng Yanchen's side and face everything with him.

Fan Shengmei arrived at the Fu Group and went straight to Meng Yanchen's office. She stood at the door, took a deep breath, and then gently knocked. "Come in," Meng Yanchen's voice came from inside. Fan Shengmei pushed open the door and saw Meng Yanchen sitting at his desk, intently looking at documents, his hair slightly disheveled, and his face showing fatigue.

"Yanchen," Fan Shengmei called softly. Meng Yanchen looked up, saw Fan Shengmei, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Xiaomei, you..." Fan Shengmei walked to his side and took his hand: "Yanchen, I've made up my mind. I want to face this with you, no matter how difficult it is." Meng Yanchen held Fan Shengmei's hand tightly, his eyes filled with emotion: "Thank you, Xiaomei. With you here, I have even more motivation."

Just then, Meng Yanchen's phone rang. He answered it, his expression instantly turning serious. After hanging up, he said to Fan Shengmei, "Xiaomei, some new problems have arisen at the company, and I have to go deal with them." Fan Shengmei nodded, "Go ahead, I'll wait for you here." Meng Yanchen got up and hurriedly left the office.

Fan Shengmei watched Meng Yanchen's departing figure, silently praying. She knew that the crisis facing the Fu Group was far from over, and the road ahead would be difficult. But she believed that as long as she and Meng Yanchen stood shoulder to shoulder, they would definitely be able to overcome the difficulties.

In the conference room of the Fu Group, Meng Yanchen and his team were engaged in a heated discussion about solutions to a new problem. "President Meng, our competitors seem to have discovered some weaknesses in our supply chain and are starting to exploit these weaknesses to suppress us," a department head said worriedly. Meng Yanchen pondered for a moment and said, "Immediately find new suppliers, while strengthening cooperation with existing suppliers and increasing their loyalty. In addition, continue investigating our competitors' business tactics to see if we can find their fatal weaknesses."

Time slipped away quietly amidst the hectic work, and night fell, the city's neon lights flickering. Inside the Fu Group's offices, the lights remained on, and Meng Yanchen and his team were still working hard to counter their competitors' offensive. Fan Shengmei sat quietly to the side, watching Meng Yanchen's busy figure, feeling both heartache and helplessness.

Meanwhile, in another corner of the city, the top executives of the mysterious investment group were gathered together, looking at the negative news and declining market share data of the Fu Group, laughing smugly. "Meng Yanchen, let's see how you turn things around this time," Chen Tianhao, the leader, sneered. They were planning an even more intense attack, attempting to completely crush the Fu Group.

Can the Fu Group stabilize its situation under the fierce offensive of its opponents? How will Fan Shengmei and Meng Yanchen deal with the upcoming crisis? Everything is still unknown.
