Such a large-scale wave of malicious negative reviews and returns has caused irreversible damage to the small shop, exceeding its normal tolerance level. Furthermore, the factory in Xiaoshan is already overwhelmed with the volume of returns. It can be concluded that this is targeted retaliation.
Neither of the two girls went to the coffee shop; instead, they stayed at the villa to focus on dealing with the crisis at their Taobao shop.
Xue Qiandai paced back and forth in the living room. "It seems someone hired professional order-boosting agents and professional negative reviewers, which is why these orders are scattered all over the country and seem to have no discernible pattern. But the quantity is enormous, and each order-boosting agent is basically ordering more than five items. By following the contact information left by these people, we might be able to find the person in charge."
Jian Yan had previously considered engaging in fake order practices, but Xue Qiandai suppressed the idea. However, in the process, she gained a deeper understanding of the operational methods of those who engage in fake orders. "I have a method. These fake order practitioners all have their own bases or QQ groups, and they share information with each other. I'll infiltrate them and see if I can uncover the people behind them."
This is one way, but it's very slow.
Xue Qiandai made a decision, holding up one finger, "Let's take a multi-pronged approach. First, file a complaint with the platform and apply for rights protection; second, the technology department will conduct big data tracking. Meiren said that anyone who goes online leaves a trace, and these order-brushing people are no exception. The phone numbers they registered for order-brushing are the best clues. So, Jian, can you ask Senior Brother Qin for help? Third, I will contact Senior Brother Gu to follow up, and if necessary, resort to legal action."
Jian Yan stared intently at Xue Qiandai. Dai Dai was always right, and she always supported Dai Dai's decisions. But why should Senior Brother Qin suffer instead of Beauty Huo?
Xue Qiandai saw through Jian Yan's thoughts and smiled meaningfully. "What, you're reluctant to trouble your Senior Brother Qin? Hey Jian, you two aren't even officially dating yet, and you're already feeling sorry for him? Besides, Senior Brother Qin would love for you to boss him around more often; he'd be happy to serve you anytime!"
That makes a lot of sense. Jian Yan pouted and dialed Qin Shu's number.
Xue Qiandai went up the stairs, and soon, carrying a platinum bag and wearing a camel-colored cashmere coat, she gracefully walked down.
Jian Yan asked in confusion, "Dai Dai, where are you going?"
Xue Qiandai curved her lips into a smile, her expression gentle and charming. "Let's go meet an old friend... who's willing to spend five million to deal with me."
Jian Yan had her suspicions, but lacking evidence, she refrained from saying anything. Seeing Xue Qiandai's confident demeanor, she finally felt relieved.
Xue Qiandai went to the Cloud Top Restaurant at the China World Hotel, which was also the place where Yuan Mu first invited her and Jian Yan to dinner.
Yes, Xue Qiandai was meeting with Yuan Mu. And she firmly believed that the person she wanted to see would also be there.
Sure enough, as soon as she stepped into the restaurant, she saw a man standing up in the booth by the window. It was Yuan Mu. He seemed a little nervous and awkward, fidgeting with his fingers, probably feeling guilty towards Jian Yan.
Beside him, Hua Se leisurely stroked her nails. The warm autumn sun shone through the large glass curtain wall, and she admired herself in the sunlight, a deep smile playing on her lips.
Xue Qiandai walked over, her high heels clicking as if she had stepped out of spring.
"SeSe, Senior Yuan, it's been a long time. I haven't had a chance to congratulate you on the opening of your magazine."
He emphasized the word "senior" slightly, reminding him of Jian Yan's presence.
After leaving *The Insider*, Yuan Mu failed to find a job. Later, with Hua Se's support, he started his own magazine. He was the editor-in-chief, and Hua Se was the honorary editor-in-chief.
"Miss Xue, you're too kind. I know you're a very important person and very busy." Yuan Mu said kindly.
Xue Qiandai looked at Hua Se and smiled, "Se Se is your benefactor." She took out an LV red envelope from her bag and handed it over.
Regardless of any past grievances between the Xuehua and Xuehua families, at least for this moment, they are all happy and harmonious.
Yuan Mu enthusiastically reached out to take it, but Xue Qiandai ignored him. With her jade-like fingertips, she elegantly placed the red envelope in the center of the dining table.
Yuan Mu did not seem annoyed.
Hua Se was taken aback, and even more confused about what Xue Qiandai was up to. She placed her hands on Yuan Mu's hands, "Brother Mu is a grateful person. He always remembers the connections you made and the bridges you built."
After they were seated, Xue Qiandai ordered a three-part afternoon tea set since it was afternoon.
Xue Qiandai lowered her eyes, a small shadow falling beneath them.
"Miss Xue, you said you'd recommend someone for our magazine, but we still don't know who it is," Yuan Mu got to the point.
"Half a month after Singles' Day ended, I read Senior Yuan's article, 'The Singles' Day E-commerce Carnival: Where Will It Lead in the Future?' It was truly excellent. And here's the person I'm introducing to you—an e-commerce elite. The young master of the Rong family in Beijing, handsome and cultured, a rising star in the fashion world, he's entered the e-commerce field, and his Taobao Mall's Singles' Day sales exceeded ten million."
A soft laugh came from the tip of her nose; it was Hua Se.
"Ah Xue, once upon a time, your Xue Family Clothing City had annual sales of tens of billions."
It's truly fallen on hard times; they're even flaunting their millions in revenue.
Afternoon tea has been served. Xue Qiandai took a sip of rock tea and parted her lips slightly, "The clothing market was built up bit by bit. A nine-story tower begins with a pile of earth. Besides, daily sales of tens of millions are quite an achievement, even for a clothing market."
"Really? What's the name of your shop? I'll come and support you!" Hua Se's voice was light and airy, seemingly carrying endless indifference and disdain. She ordered a durian-filled cake, which emitted a pungent smell.
Xue Qiandai looked directly into her eyes, her gaze sharp, like a knife or a saw: "Life is as beautiful as a summer flower. I believe you've heard that name recently. In this world, there are always people who can't stand to see you do well, and they'll use all sorts of despicable and underhanded methods. Bad reviews, order cancellations, fake purchases, Sese, I never thought you would do such a despicable thing."
