Just as Meng Yanchen and Fan Shengmei finished discussing the current situation, Meng Yanchen's phone rang again. He glanced at the caller ID, his expression instantly turning serious. "It's a business partner calling; there might be new developments," Meng Yanchen said to Fan Shengmei, then answered the phone. An anxious voice came from the other end, and Meng Yanchen's brows furrowed even more as he listened. After hanging up, he looked at Fan Shengmei and slowly said, "The mysterious investment group seems to be brewing something bigger. We need to speed up our preparations."
Meanwhile, in the lavish yet oppressively atmosphere of the mysterious investment group's conference room, the stark white light shone on the long table. The group's top executives sat together, their faces grim, the air thick with tension. "We absolutely cannot let Meng Yanchen and that woman get away with this!" Chen Tianhao slammed his fist on the table, making the documents on it tremble. His eyes were bloodshot, filled with resentment and anger. The others echoed his sentiments, discussing how to salvage the situation. Ultimately, they decided to increase advertising spending, attempting to reclaim lost market share through a massive publicity campaign, while simultaneously making personal threats against Meng Yanchen and Fan Shengmei, hoping to disrupt their plans.
Soon, the city's streets, bus stops, subway stations, and even various mobile apps were flooded with advertisements from competitors. These ads exaggerated the advantages of their products while disparaging the Fu Group's products, aiming to mislead consumers. At the same time, Meng Yanchen and Fan Shengmei each received anonymous threatening letters. The letters were arrogant and demanded they cease all retaliatory actions or face consequences. Enclosed in the envelopes was a photograph depicting their daily commute, clearly indicating they were being secretly monitored.
Upon seeing the letter, Fan Shengmei felt a flicker of fear, but it was quickly replaced by her resilience. She bit her lip, threw the letter on the table, and said firmly, "They're desperate, trying to scare us with such underhanded tactics. No way!" Meng Yanchen, however, remained stern. He gently grasped Fan Shengmei's hand and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I'm here. The more they act like this, the more it shows our counterattack has thrown them off balance."
The two acted swiftly. Meng Yanchen immediately contacted a professional security team to add bodyguards for himself and Fan Shengmei, strengthening security measures at the company, residence, and during their travels. The security personnel were well-trained, dressed in black uniforms, and vigilantly surveyed their surroundings. Fan Shengmei, meanwhile, convened the Fu Group's marketing and sales team in the company's spacious and bright conference room to discuss countermeasures once again.
“Everyone has seen the competition’s advertising offensive; we can’t just sit idly by.” Fan Shengmei stood at the front of the conference room, her gaze sweeping over everyone. “We need to be creative and respond with innovative marketing methods.” The marketing manager adjusted his glasses and said, “We can leverage the power of social media to launch interactive activities, allowing consumers to participate deeply and increasing the product’s buzz.” “That’s right,” another marketing specialist added, “and at the same time, we’ll combine this with offline experience activities, letting consumers experience the advantages of our product firsthand.”
Therefore, the Fu Group acted swiftly. Online, they launched a social media campaign called "Discover the Beauty of Fu," encouraging consumers to share stories and photos related to Fu products, with participants having the chance to win generous prizes. The campaign immediately attracted a large number of users and quickly gained popularity. Offline, they set up product experience zones in commercial centers of major cities, with exquisite displays and professional staff to allow consumers to fully understand the unique features of the products.
In the Fu Group's office area, everyone was busy yet organized. The sounds of keyboards clicking and discussions filled the air, while printers continuously churned out documents. Meng Yanchen moved between departments, coordinating resources to ensure the counterattack plan progressed smoothly. He would sometimes discuss strategies with senior management in his office, and other times visit the technical department to check on product optimization progress, his gaze firm and focused. Fan Shengmei, meanwhile, was busy with the marketing and sales departments, following up on every detail of the activities. She meticulously reviewed promotional materials, repeatedly confirmed the event flow, and didn't overlook even a single punctuation mark.
In the competitive market, the battle between the two sides intensified. Competitors' advertisements were ubiquitous, attempting to create an overwhelming advantage. However, Fu's Group, with its innovative marketing methods, gradually attracted consumers' attention. In the product experience area, crowds thronged, and consumers praised Fu's products. "This product is really practical. I hesitated after reading those negative reports, but now that I've experienced it myself, it's completely different," one consumer said.
As the Fu Group's marketing activities progressed, its market share gradually stabilized and showed a slow upward trend. However, the mysterious investment group and its rival companies had no intention of giving up. In their secret hideouts, a new conspiracy was brewing.
Meng Yanchen and Fan Shengmei sat in their office, looking at the latest market data with serious expressions. Although they had temporarily withstood some of their opponents' attacks, they knew that a greater crisis was yet to come. Meng Yanchen stood up, walked to the window, and gazed at the bustling yet turbulent city outside. He said, "They certainly won't give up easily. Who knows what crazy things they'll do next." Fan Shengmei walked to his side and gently took his arm. "No matter what they do, we'll face it together."
Outside the window, night falls, and the city's neon lights flicker. Beneath the seemingly calm surface, a much larger storm appears to be quietly gathering.
