Initially, Xiao Yi and his team were filled with hope, thanks to the solemn promise of ample resources to enable their plans to proceed smoothly. However, everything had now changed drastically. The promised resources seemed to be ruthlessly cut by an invisible hand. The quantity of the advanced equipment originally planned was drastically reduced, and its quality was significantly compromised. The once ample budget was repeatedly cut, and every expenditure was subject to repeated review and debate. Regarding human resources, the promised elite professionals were replaced with inexperienced newcomers, and some positions even remained vacant. Crucial decisions seemed to be shelved in a forgotten corner, unattended. The originally planned timeline was disrupted, and important strategic plans were shelved. Every step awaiting a decision seemed to have been put on hold, completely disrupting the entire plan's flow. Xiao Yi and his team's repeated reports and applications fell on deaf ears, receiving no effective response. They attempted to communicate with senior management, but the internal chaos made it impossible to identify clear leaders. The once confident team was now mired in confusion and anxiety. Without the guarantee of resources and the lack of key decision-making, they felt as if they were in a desert, struggling to move forward, while the goal ahead was becoming increasingly distant.
Xiao Yi stood there, his hands clenched into fists, his knuckles white from the strain. His eyes were red, burning with rage, and he roared in a trembling voice, "Are our efforts going to go to waste like this?" His chest heaved violently, as if the rage within him threatened to burst through his body. He recalled the days and nights of tireless dedication by his team members, the meticulous planning of every plan, the repeated attempts at every experiment, the gritted teeth and perseverance in the face of every obstacle. Images of that sweat and blood flashed through his mind. He felt a deep sense of helplessness, like an invisible hand gripping his heart. The hope and longing he had once held for the future were now shattered by the blow of reality. Xiao Yi stared at the chaotic scene before him, his voice hoarse with anger. "We've given so much, overcome so many difficulties, and were on the verge of success. Why has it turned out like this?" His eyes were filled with resentment and questioning, but he couldn't find the answer. A wave of helplessness washed over him, weighing him down. He knew that the team's efforts embodied the dreams and expectations of so many people, and that if they were to go to waste, it would be an unbearable tragedy. However, faced with the turmoil and changes in decision-making at the top, he felt so insignificant and powerless.
Faced with this daunting situation, Xiao Yi's brow furrowed, his gaze gleaming with determination and courage. He knew that sitting back and waiting for death was no solution; only by taking the initiative could the team's efforts find a glimmer of hope. Xiao Yi quickly gathered his core team members and, in a small but spirited meeting room, engaged in a heated discussion. Standing before a whiteboard, he rapidly scrawled various ideas and strategies with a marker. "We can't just sit there and watch everything go to waste. We must proactively seek support!" Xiao Yi's firm and forceful voice broke the tense atmosphere in the meeting room. He analyzed the current situation in detail, identifying potential sources of assistance and potential supporters. "We need to reorganize our plan, highlighting its value and significance, so that those who can support us can see our determination and potential," Xiao Yi said, outlining key nodes and connections on the whiteboard. The team members nodded, their eyes rekindled with hope. They actively offered their own ideas and suggestions, working together to refine the plan for seeking support. Xiao Yi never paused. After the meeting, he immediately began organizing relevant materials and reports. He meticulously polished each document, striving to present the team's efforts and the feasibility of their plans in the clearest and most persuasive manner. In the days that followed, Xiao Yi traveled extensively, visiting senior executives and experts who might offer support, patiently explaining the team's philosophy and goals. His words were sincere and passionate, brimming with a thirst for success and a dedication to his dreams. Sometimes, he would wait outside someone's office for hours just to get a few minutes to present the team's achievements. Sometimes, he encountered cold rejection and merciless ridicule, but he never once flinched. In this process of seeking support, Xiao Yi demonstrated extraordinary perseverance and courage. He firmly believed that with perseverance, he would find the lifeline for his team and ensure that their efforts would not be in vain.
Xiao Yi seemed like a tireless bird, soaring through the city streets and alleys. Before the first rays of morning sun had fully penetrated, he had already left his home, laden with thick documents and brimming with hope. He first arrived at the headquarters of a renowned company, anxiously waiting at the front desk, hoping for a chance to meet with senior management. However, the indifferent security guards and busy staff made his wait fraught with uncertainty. But he persisted, clutching his plan tightly in his hands, his gaze fixed firmly on the elevator. He then hurried to the office of a leading industry expert. Despite the expert's packed schedule, Xiao Yi waited patiently outside. Taking advantage of the expert's brief break, he approached and presented his plan in the clearest and simplest terms, eager to gain their approval and support. At noon, Xiao Yi grabbed a few bites of bread on the sidewalk before rushing back to various industry seminars and exchange meetings. There, he never missed an opportunity to connect with potential supporters, actively distributing his project materials and passionately describing the plan's innovative features and future development prospects. In the afternoon, he visited some partners who had previously expressed interest in collaborating. Although the previous collaboration did not come to fruition, he still sincerely introduced the improvements and optimizations of the plan again, trying to rekindle their interest. In the evening, when the lights began to come on, Xiao Yi dragged his tired body but still did not stop. He contacted some emerging investment institutions and communicated continuously through phone calls and emails, hoping to attract their attention. At the end of the day, Xiao Yi's footsteps covered every corner of the city. His voice became hoarse from constant explanations, and his body was sore from excessive running. But the fire in his heart burned brighter and brighter, because he knew that as long as he kept working hard, he might find new support and keep the plan moving forward.
