Attorney Wu took a deep breath, his face grave. "They... are suing us for copyright infringement!"
The air in the conference room froze instantly, and everyone's eyes were fixed on Liu Lu.
Liu Lu frowned. Xingyao Group's move to undermine their foundation had come unexpectedly.
Copyright infringement?
That's utter nonsense!
She knew perfectly well that her product was independently developed and that there was no issue of infringement.
This is clearly malicious competition, an attempt to drive her to the brink of despair!
"What evidence do they have?" Liu Lu asked coldly, suppressing her anger.
“They claim we copied their core technology.” Attorney Wu handed a document to Liu Lu. “This is the evidence they submitted.”
Liu Lu quickly scanned the documents, her face growing increasingly grim.
This so-called "evidence" is full of loopholes and is clearly a forgery.
The sinister intentions of Xingyao Group are now crystal clear.
"This is utterly absurd!" President Qian slammed his fist on the table, angrily exclaiming, "This is clearly malicious competition, an attempt to ruin us!"
Chairman Zhao frowned and said in a deep voice, "Xingyao Group is coming on strong, and there must be someone manipulating things behind the scenes. We must be careful."
Liu Lu took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
Especially in times like these, it's crucial not to lose your composure.
She looked around at everyone and said firmly, "Don't panic, everyone. We'll deal with whatever comes our way. Let's work together to find a solution, and we'll definitely get through this."
Sales plummeted, causing widespread anxiety within the company.
Liu Lu felt unprecedented pressure, but she knew she couldn't give up.
She has to provide for her employees and her daughter.
Just then, Chairman Zhao, General Manager Qian, Professor Sun, and Attorney Wu gathered together again.
“President Liu, we can’t just sit here and wait to die.” Chairman Zhao presented a new marketing plan. “I worked on this overnight and it can help us improve our brand image and regain market share.”
Mr. Qian also handed over a document, saying, "This is our latest product technology research and development, which can further improve product performance and widen the gap with Xingyao Group."
Professor Sun adjusted his glasses and pointed to Xingyao Group's product analysis report, "Although their products seem to be of high quality, they actually have a fatal weakness..."
Attorney Wu confidently stated, "I have prepared all the legal documents and am ready to file a countersuit against Xingyao Group at any time."
Looking at her allies, Liu Lu felt a surge of warmth in her heart.
She knew she wasn't alone.
She also has these friends who will stand by her side and help her through this difficult time.
A resolute glint flashed in Liu Lu's eyes. "Alright, let's go all out! I want to see who comes out on top!" She picked up the phone. "Secretary Chen, notify all department heads to hold an emergency meeting in ten minutes..."
At the emergency meeting, Liu Lu integrated the suggestions from Chairman Zhao, General Manager Qian, Professor Sun, and Attorney Wu, and quickly made strategic plans.
The new product development plan was launched quickly. General Manager Qian led the technical team to work day and night to turn the weaknesses of Xingyao Group's products pointed out by Professor Sun into their own advantages, creating an innovative product with higher cost performance and more powerful functions.
The new product launch was a grand event, with Liu Lu personally taking the stage and confidently introducing the various advantages of the new products.
The market response was exceptionally enthusiastic, with orders pouring in like snowflakes, quickly allowing them to regain some of the lost market share.
Xingyao Group's stock price plummeted in response, and they clearly felt the pressure.
However, Xingyao Group was not willing to accept defeat.
They hired online trolls to maliciously smear Liu Lu's group's new products, spreading various rumors in an attempt to damage Liu Lu's reputation once again.
Suddenly, the internet was flooded with negative comments, and consumers began to have doubts.
Faced with this sudden crisis, Liu Lu Group's public relations team reacted quickly, collected evidence, contacted major media platforms, and launched a powerful counterattack against Xingyao Group's smear campaign.
They released various test reports for the new products and exposed Xingyao Group's smear tactics with a wealth of factual evidence, winning the public's trust.
Public opinion began to shift, with consumers expressing their support for Liu Lu's Group.
The conspiracy of Xingyao Group was completely exposed, and its stock price plummeted again.
Just then, Liu Lu received a phone call...
"Mr. Liu, the chairman of Xingyao Group would like to meet with you," Secretary Chen reported calmly.
A cold smile appeared on Liu Lu's lips. "It seems they can't sit still any longer." She picked up her coat, a sharp glint in her eyes. "Let's go, let's go meet him."
Liu Lu arrived at the agreed location, where the chairman of Xingyao Group had been waiting for a long time.
He wore a fake smile, trying to use polite words to cover up the previous malicious competition.
Liu Lu, however, was not buying it. She went straight to the point, pointing out the despicable actions of Xingyao Group.
Her powerful aura and sharp eyes immediately diminished the other person's confidence.
At the negotiating table, Liu Lu demonstrated her exceptional business acumen and negotiation skills.
She pressed on relentlessly, refuting each of the other party's sophistry point by point, and cleverly exploited Xingyao Group's weaknesses to force them to make significant concessions on the cooperative project.
Ultimately, Liu Lu secured more benefits for the group, while Xingyao Group paid a heavy price.
This victory in negotiations further enhanced Liu Lu's prestige within the group.
The employees admired her even more and were even more determined to fight alongside her.
A few days later, Liu Lu's daughter, Liu Bei, gave a speech entitled "My Business Heroine Mom" at a school speech contest, taking her mother as her role model.
In her tender voice, she recounted how Liu Lu overcame obstacles in the business world and how she used wisdom and courage to overcome difficulties.
Liu Lu sat in the audience, listening to her daughter's speech, her eyes welling up with tears.
She felt incredibly gratified and proud.
However, just as Liu Lu was gradually gaining the upper hand in the market competition, an undercurrent was brewing.
The competitors were not willing to accept defeat. They colluded with some forces and prepared to deliver a fatal blow to Liu Lu's group from behind.
Late at night, the phone rang abruptly in Liu Lu's office.
"Ms. Liu, we've received news..." Secretary Chen's voice was low and urgent, "They...they've started their operation." Liu Lu suddenly stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the city's dazzling lights, a hint of coldness flashing in her eyes.
"I understand." Her tone was calm, yet carried an undeniable firmness. "Pass the word down, everyone on high alert." The phone call ended, and the room fell silent.
Liu Lu picked up a document with the words "malicious reporting" written on it.
She gripped the document tightly in her hand, her knuckles turning white...
Suddenly, a series of urgent knocks broke the silence.
"Come in."
