Rebirth of Love: Jiang Ciyou's Counterattack Legend

Jiang Ciyou felt as if she was in an endless nightmare, surrounded by endless darkness and no light. The sudden change in the business world was like a fierce tsunami, destroying the business fortress she had worked hard to build over the years.

The partners she had originally agreed to work with, those who had once drunk and talked happily with her and swore to work together to create brilliance, have now betrayed her. The letters of cancellation sent by companies fell on her desk like cold snowflakes, and each one was like a sharp blade, piercing her heart. The crisis of a broken capital chain hung over her head, like a sword of Damocles that could fall at any time. Once it was cut, her years of hard work and countless days and nights of struggle would all come to nothing.

She looked at the city map hanging on the wall of her office, which marked the distribution of her businesses. Once, these locations were the witnesses of her dream taking root and flourishing, but now they are like shaky buildings. The figures on the company's books have shrunk sharply, and the glaring red on the financial statements makes her dizzy. The bank's loan repayment deadline is approaching, and the collection calls come one after another. The ringtones are particularly harsh in the silent office, and each one seems to be urging her to count down to despair.

In life, she seemed to be stuck in a quagmire, the more she struggled, the deeper she sank. All kinds of rumors were like poisonous stings, stabbing her from all directions. On the streets, those seemingly friendly neighbors and strangers were now whispering negative news about her. In supermarkets and cafes, as soon as she appeared, people around her would cast strange looks at her. Those looks contained curiosity, contempt, and ridicule, like invisible shackles, making every step she took extremely difficult.

Social media was in an uproar, with those malicious rumors spreading like a virus. Some said she got to her current position by improper means and stole trade secrets; others accused her of being fickle in relationships and flirting with multiple men just to make money. The accompanying pictures were blurry and misidentified photos, but the descriptions were written in a serious manner. Without knowing the truth, netizens abused her wantonly, and those ugly words filled the screen, and the popularity remained high. She tried to open her phone to check the messages, but as soon as she unlocked it, she was flooded with bad reviews, which scared her so much that her hands shook and she almost dropped her phone. Since then, she has not even had the courage to open her phone.

Jiang Ciyou locked herself in the office all day, and it seemed to be her last refuge. The sunlight outside the window was blocked by the heavy curtains, and the dim light in the room cast a dim light and shadow on the piles of documents. She sat in the office chair, her hair scattered messily on both sides of her cheeks, dark circles under her eyes, and her eyes were full of fatigue and confusion. The documents in front of her were opened and closed one by one, contract details, financial data, market analysis... Each item gave her a splitting headache, but she had to force herself to deal with it.

She rubbed her temples, trying to relieve the headache that was like a tight ring around her neck, but the anxiety in her heart was like a tide, one after another, and she couldn't calm it down. Her fingers tapped unconsciously on the desk, the rhythm was disordered, just like her complicated thoughts at the moment. She kept asking herself: "How should I deal with all this? Why did my life become like this?" The self who was full of vigor and entered the business world with infinite longing seemed to be a thing of the past life.

At that time, she had just graduated from college and her mind was full of novel business ideas. With the spirit of a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, she took a few like-minded friends and plunged into the wave of entrepreneurship. Starting from a small studio, in order to save costs, she personally went to the market to purchase and bargained with suppliers. She was so tired that she could fall asleep while standing on the subway on the way home. After finally negotiating the first order, several people were so excited that they cheered in the office and thought instant noodles were delicious.

After countless failures and setbacks, she gradually gained a firm foothold and the company grew. She began to attend various high-end business meetings, wearing exquisite suits and confidently talking to industry leaders, thinking that she had finally gotten her reward after all the hard work and that her future was bright. But now, these successive blows are like heavy punches, hitting her all over, and her former confidence and courage seem to have become a joke.

She recalled the betrayal on her wedding night. Her husband's text message was like the beginning of a nightmare, completely shattering her originally beautiful life. Since then, she has been like a ship that has lost its way, drifting on the vast ocean, trying to grab something to fill the emptiness in her heart, and then she had the entanglement with Lu Jingchen. She used him, but she also fell in love with him unknowingly. However, before she could sort out her feelings, her career fell into this hopeless situation.

Jiang Ciyou took a deep breath and tried to cheer herself up. She couldn't just sit there and wait for death. She stood up, walked to the window, and pulled open the curtains. The dazzling sunlight instantly poured in, illuminating the dust in the house. She looked out the window at the bustling city scene, with tall buildings lined up one after another and cars and people flowing continuously. She felt unwilling. This city witnessed her rise and also witnessed her fall. She vowed to break free from this predicament and regain her own glory.

She returned to her desk, picked up a document, and began to carefully sort out the company's business structure, looking for possible breakthroughs. Perhaps she could start by cutting unnecessary expenses, streamlining department staff, and optimizing operational processes; or re-evaluate existing product lines, tap into those neglected potential products, and increase promotion efforts. She wrote down plans on paper, crossed them out, and added to them again, her eyes gradually becoming firmer.

However, the reality was far more difficult than she had imagined. When she tried to negotiate with suppliers to extend the payment period, they ruthlessly refused and even threatened to stop supplying. When she contacted potential investors, they hung up the phone one after another after hearing about the company's current situation, leaving no room for maneuver. Every setback was like a bucket of cold water, dousing the fire of hope that had just been ignited in her, but she gritted her teeth and started again and again.

At the same time, the company began to panic. Employees were discussing privately, worrying about their future, and some had already begun to quietly submit resumes and look for new jobs. Jiang Ciyou noticed this undercurrent, and she knew that if she couldn't stabilize the morale of the employees, the company would completely fall apart. So she called an emergency meeting of all employees.

In the conference room, she pretended to be calm, standing on the stage, looking at the anxious eyes below, with mixed feelings in her heart. She cleared her throat and said, "Everyone knows that the company is currently facing some difficulties, but I want to tell you that this is only temporary. We have been through so many ups and downs along the way, and we have always been able to overcome danger, and this time will be no exception. I, Jiang Ciyou, assure you that as long as everyone works together to overcome the difficulties, the company will not treat anyone unfairly." Her voice trembled slightly, but it revealed an unquestionable firmness.

The employees below the stage were whispering to each other. Some looked skeptical, while others nodded slightly, touched by her words. Jiang Ciyou continued, "Next, I will adjust the company's strategic layout and optimize business processes. There may be some department changes and personnel deployments, but this is all for us to survive better. I hope everyone will believe in me and believe in the strength of our team."

After the meeting, several key employees stayed and walked up to Jiang Ciyou to express their support for her. "Boss Jiang, we have worked with you for so long and know your ability. We will do whatever you say and never back down." Hearing these words, Jiang Ciyou's eyes moistened. She nodded vigorously, and a warm current surged in her heart. In this cold predicament, this bit of warmth seemed particularly precious.

But Jiang Ciyou knew that determination alone was not enough. The funding gap was like a huge black hole, swallowing up all hope. She looked through her address book, trying to find someone who could help her, but the friends who usually called her brothers and sisters avoided her at this moment. Some used the excuse of being on a business trip, and some simply didn't answer the phone. The cruelty of reality made her feel chilled.

Late at night, when the lights in the city gradually faded, the lights in Jiang Ciyou's office were still on. She sat alone in front of her computer, browsing various business information, looking for a possible turnaround. Suddenly, a report on an emerging industry caught her attention. This might be a brand new track. Although it was full of risks, it also had huge opportunities. She fell into deep thought, wondering whether she should go all out and invest the remaining resources of the company in it to gamble on the future.

Once this idea came into her mind, it lingered in her mind. She began to collect relevant information, analyze market prospects and competitive situations, and the more she studied, the faster her heart beat. This could be her last straw, or it could be the poison that accelerates the company's demise. But in this desperate situation, she no longer had much choice.

Outside the window, the night is deep, but Jiang Ciyou has no desire to sleep. She knows that tomorrow is another tough battle waiting for her, but she will not give up. Even if there is only a glimmer of hope, she will hold on to it tightly and fight her way out for herself, for the company, and for those who still believe in her.

At this moment, Jiang Ciyou's phone screen lit up with a text message from an unknown number: "Mr. Jiang, don't be discouraged. I have a way to help you." She frowned, full of doubts. Who is this mysterious person? What kind of changes will he bring to her at this critical moment? But at this moment, she was too exhausted to think about it. She just put the phone aside and continued to immerse herself in work. She knew that no matter what was waiting for her ahead, she had to straighten her spine and face it bravely.
