Chapter 290 Crisis
The Chi family would arrange a separate rest room for each servant, similar to a nanny's room, which was small but sufficient for rest. Although they were all separate, the living quarters were connected.
For example, the new guy who came today and was very friendly lived next door to him.
When he arrived at the rest room, Chi Wenyan was exhausted both physically and mentally, and fell into a deep sleep as soon as he touched the bed.
In the middle of the night, he suddenly woke up from a dream. In the dream, he saw his parents' faces, which became clearer and clearer, and they kept calling his name.
Those memories came flooding back like a tide, giving him a headache.
He sat up, rubbed his eyebrows, took out the pocket watch, checked the time, stood up, put on his clothes, and walked out of the house quietly.
The corridor is dim and you need to grope your way forward.
Relying on my memory, I walked to the door of my former room and looked at the dusty and closed door, feeling mixed emotions.
The door had been locked for a long time. He took out a tool he had prepared in advance from his pocket and began to pry the door lock.
The door lock made a slight clicking sound, which was a little louder than a mouse, but he lived in a remote place where few people came. Even if someone came, they would probably think it was a mouse.
After a while, the door lock was finally pried open. Chi Wenyan gently pushed the door open, and a stale smell hit him in the face.
Everything in the room was still the same as he remembered. Although it was covered with dust, the familiar furnishings still made him feel a little at ease.
Walk to the corner of the room, where there is an old wooden box.
He squatted down and found a wooden box. Inside the box were some of his childhood belongings. Under these belongings was a card covered with a layer of gray film. At first glance, it looked like a dirty game card.
But this is a bank locker combination card left to him by his parents.
When his parents passed away, they left him a secret letter saying that if he ever had difficulties in the future, he should open this bank safe, because the safe contained the inheritance left to him by his parents.
The people in the Chi family had been looking for this card but couldn't find it. Chi Wenyan picked up the card with trembling hands and put it away. He restored the house to its previous appearance and then turned and left.
…
As soon as Ji Wan arrived at the company today, he felt that the atmosphere was not right.
Although the office is usually busy, you can still take a break and see many people slacking off. Now everyone is running around and the sound of phone ringing fills the entire office area.
The employees gathered in groups of three or five, discussing with each other while holding documents in their hands. They looked flustered, and when they saw Ji Wan, they quickly looked away.
She walked quickly towards her office, and along the way, she only heard various fragments of conversation.
"how so?"
"Suddenly, more than half of the orders were cancelled. This has never happened before."
"Did the overseas customer also cancel the order?"
"Another order has been cancelled."
Ji Wan frowned, a sense of foreboding welling up in his heart. As soon as he pushed open the office door, employee Xiao Lin hurried over, his face as pale as paper.
"Mr. Ji, something happened." Xiao Lin's voice trembled slightly.
"What's the matter? Tell me slowly." Ji Wan comforted.
Xiao Lin took a deep breath and said, "As soon as I got to work this morning, I received notifications from several major customers saying they were canceling their orders. Before we could even ask why, we discovered that some of our company's important confidential business documents had been leaked and were now in the hands of a rival company."
Xiao Lin swallowed his saliva and lowered his eyes. "Also, a lot of negative news about the quality of our company's products has suddenly appeared on the Internet. The relevant departments are now verifying it."
Ji Wan frowned, walked quickly to the desk and turned on the computer.
The screen was filled with pop-ups of negative news and reports showing a sharp decline in the company's business data.
Ji Wan took a deep breath and quickly calmed down. The more times like this, the more you need to stay calm.
Chi Lin, you've caused her quite a bit of trouble this time, and she's getting anxious so quickly.
"Xiao Lin, go tell your colleagues in the PR department to gather in the conference room immediately. I want to see everyone in ten minutes."
"Yes, Mr. Ji."
Ji Wan sat down, staring at the screen, his slender fingers tapping quickly on the keyboard, organizing some key news links and content into a document so that he could talk about it in the meeting later.
"Xiao Lin, where's Tiantian?"
"Secretary Sun went to the branch office, and there was a problem with the funds there." Xiao Lin's voice became lower and lower as he spoke.
"It's okay, you go and assist with the meeting first, I'll be there in ten minutes." Ji Wan said calmly.
"Okay." Xiaolin left in a hurry.
In less than ten minutes, members of the public relations department rushed to the meeting room.
Ji Wan walked into the conference room carrying a computer with a serious look. After glancing at everyone present, he started the meeting.
It is true that everyone is sleeping in meetings and it is boring. The whole morning passed in the meeting. Ji Wan was talking so hard that his mouth was dry and his face did not look good.
At the end, Ji Wan took a sip of water and talked about controlling the direction of public opinion.
Xiaolin nodded quickly and took note of it.
Then he had Xiaolin send the organized documents to the PR department members and continued, "Everyone, divide into several groups and execute according to my previous arrangements. In addition, closely monitor online public opinion and report to me on progress every half hour."
Members of the public relations department sprang into action.
The entire company entered a busy phase.
Ji Wan did not rest for a moment, communicating and coordinating with the heads of various departments of the company.
Time passed by minute by minute in the busy and tense atmosphere. The whole office was brightly lit, as if the night was isolated outside the window.
Ji Wan has been sitting at his desk, constantly checking the progress of public relations and replying to various urgent emails and messages.
Her eyes became dry, and she would rub them occasionally with her hands before continuing to work.
As the night deepened, fatigue slowly surged towards Ji Wan like a tide.
Drink the coffee at hand, let the bitter liquid constantly stimulate your nerves and stay awake.
Before we knew it, the sky was turning pale and a new day began.
Ji Wan leaned back in her chair, her eyes bloodshot and her hair a little messy.
The high-intensity work and thinking made her exhausted. Her originally straight back gradually bent. She supported her forehead with her hands, closed and opened her eyes from time to time, trying hard to stay awake, but sleepiness still came to her in waves like a tide.
Finally, her eyelids could no longer hold up and slowly closed, and her head drooped involuntarily.
The office was very quiet, with only the sound of her soft breathing. In this silence, she fell into a deep sleep.
I don’t know how long it was before a quick phone call suddenly broke the silence.
Ji Wan was awakened by the ringing sound. His body shook slightly, his eyes still hazy with sleepiness. He groped for his cell phone on the desk in a daze.
Seeing that the caller ID showed Sun Tian, she rubbed her eyes, cleared her throat, and then answered the call.
"Hello, Tiantian." Ji Wan's voice was filled with fatigue.
