After the substitution marriage, I became the CEO's white moonlight

"No, contact the public relations department first and ask them to control public opinion as much as possible." Gu Jinyan took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. "Also, arrange for me to meet with the policy advisor immediately. I want to understand the latest policy trends."

Before he finished speaking, the office door was suddenly pushed open, and Su Li appeared at the door with an anxious look on her face. "Jin Yan, the news is going viral outside, what's going on with the company?"

Gu Jinyan stood up and hugged her in his arms, patting her back gently and comforting her softly, "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything." He let go of Su Li, turned to his assistant and said, "Do as I say, and arrange for me to meet with the president of the industry association immediately."

Gu Jinyan knew that this crisis was more serious than he had imagined. The industry alliance had united to deal with him, and even resorted to various means to suppress Gu's. He had to find a breakthrough as soon as possible, otherwise Gu's would face a catastrophe.

The next day, Gu Jinyan met with the president of the industry association as scheduled. The president said straight to the point: "Mr. Gu, I hope you can understand that we had no choice this time. Your insistence on cooperating with companies outside the industry has touched our bottom line."

"President, you should know that I chose my partners after careful consideration. Their technology and ideas have a huge driving force for the development of the entire industry." Gu Jinyan tried to persuade the president, "Moreover, I believe that this is also a good thing for you and the entire industry alliance."

"Mr. Gu, we appreciate your kindness. However, we have our own rules and hope you can understand." The president's tone was firm, leaving no room for negotiation.

The meeting ended unpleasantly, and Gu Jinyan returned to the company with a terribly gloomy face. He knew that the industry alliance was determined to ban him, and all he could do now was wait for the opportunity to break the deadlock.

At the same time, competitors also began to take advantage of the situation. The new products they launched quickly occupied the market with low-price strategies, and Gu's market share was severely squeezed.

"Mr. Gu, our product sales have dropped by 30 percent and are still declining." The marketing manager reported the latest market data with a grim look on his face.

Gu Jinyan rubbed his brows, feeling anxious. He knew that the current situation was very unfavorable to the Gu family, but he could not lose his composure. He had to stay calm and find a way to solve the problem.

Just then, his cell phone rang. It was a call from the boss of a new company. Gu Jinyan felt a glimmer of hope. Maybe, things could turn around...

"Hello, Mr. Wang, you..."

The voice on the other end of the phone made his heart sink instantly...

"Hello, Mr. Wang, you..." Gu Jinyan's voice trembled slightly. He was eager to hear good news, even if it was just a simple word of encouragement.

Mr. Wang's apologetic voice came from the other end of the phone: "Mr. Gu, I'm really sorry, I'm afraid I have to break my promise. The industry association has put a lot of pressure on us, and we have to reconsider our cooperation with your company..."

Gu Jinyan's heart sank suddenly. He knew what this meant. It meant that their last hope was also shattered. He clenched his fists, suppressed his anger, and said as calmly as possible: "Mr. Wang, I hope you can think about it again. The cooperation between us is mutually beneficial. You..."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Gu, I really can't do anything about it. I hope you can understand." Mr. Wang interrupted him hurriedly, his tone full of helplessness and apology.

Gu Jinyan put down his phone helplessly, a deep feeling of powerlessness surged into his heart. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself down. He knew that now was not the time to be sad and desperate, he had to cheer up, for the Gu family, for Su Li, he had to find a way to solve the problem.

"Jin Yan, what's wrong?" Su Li noticed that something was wrong with him and asked anxiously.

"Mr. Wang also..." Gu Jinyan opened his mouth with difficulty, but didn't know how to continue.

Su Li's heart sank, she knew what this meant, it meant that they were now isolated and helpless. But she had no time to be sad, she had to face this crisis with Gu Jinyan.

"Don't worry, we'll think of a solution." Su Li held his hand and said firmly, "We still have time, there will definitely be a solution."

Gu Jinyan looked at Su Li's determined eyes, and a glimmer of hope ignited in his heart. He nodded and quickly called the company's top management to hold an emergency meeting.

The atmosphere in the conference room was heavy, and everyone's face was filled with worry. Gu Jinyan briefly told everyone about the current predicament and Mr. Wang's reply, and then said in a deep voice: "I know that the current situation is not favorable for us, but we can't give up. We must unite and overcome the difficulties together."

"Mr. Gu, what should we do?" the marketing manager asked anxiously.

"We must increase investment in research and development and launch more competitive products as soon as possible. At the same time, we must also strengthen marketing efforts to regain market share." Gu Jinyan said decisively, "I believe that as long as we work together, we will be able to overcome this difficulty."

His words were powerful, like a reassurance, which gradually calmed the originally flustered crowd. A heated discussion ensued, with everyone actively offering suggestions, hoping to find a way to turn the situation around.

At this moment, Gu Jinyan's phone rang again. It was a call from a policy advisor. He answered the phone, but before he could speak, the other party said, "Mr. Gu, I have some information about policy support, which may be helpful to you, but..."

Gu Jinyan's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw, and asked anxiously: "But what?"

"However, you need to provide more results in terms of technological innovation as proof..."

The policy advisor's words were like a faint ray of light, illuminating the fog in front of Gu Jinyan. He took a deep breath and said firmly: "Please tell us, we will do our best to cooperate."

The policy consultant explained in detail the application conditions and procedures for the relevant policies, and especially emphasized the importance of technological innovation results. This is both a hope and a challenge for Gu Jinyan. Gujia Company has always been known for its stability and has been relatively conservative in its investment in technological innovation.

"I understand. Thank you very much. We will organize the relevant materials as soon as possible." There was a hint of fatigue in Gu Jin's tone, but he knew that this was their only hope.

However, one problem is followed by another. Just as Gujia Company was fully prepared to deal with the suppression of the industry alliance and market competition, turmoil broke out within the company. Some employees heard that the company was in trouble and chose to switch to more stable companies. For a time, people in the company were panicked and team morale was low.

"Mr. Zhang, are you really leaving? We have worked together in the company for so many years..." The HR manager looked at the old employee who had submitted his resignation, his tone full of reluctance.

Lao Zhang sighed and said helplessly: "Lao Li, it's not that I don't care about friendship, but you have seen the current situation of the company. I have parents and children to take care of, and I can't be without protection."

Similar conversations were taking place in every corner of the company, with anxiety and uneasiness written all over everyone's face. Gu Jinyan saw it all and was anxious. He knew that if the morale of the troops could not be stabilized as soon as possible, the company would face a greater crisis.

He called all the employees of the company together and said in a heavy tone: "I know that the company is facing some difficulties now, but I assure you that we will overcome the difficulties and get out of the predicament. I understand your feelings, but please believe me, believe in Gujia Company, and we will get through the difficulties together!"

His words are passionate and powerful, but whether they can truly soothe people's hearts remains to be seen.

Just then, Gu Jinyan's cell phone rang again. He glanced at the caller ID and frowned slightly.

"It's the president of the industry association..." He whispered, and answered the phone in a calm tone: "Hello, I'm Gu Jinyan."

The president's low voice came from the other end of the phone: "Mr. Gu, I hope you will consider my proposal again, as long as you..."

"Mr. Gu, I hope you can consider my proposal again, as long as you..." The president's voice was low and slow, with a hint of unquestionable majesty.

"President, I have made your words very clear," Gu Jinyan interrupted him, his tone firm, "Gu's company will not give up any market, nor will it succumb to any pressure."

"Young man, don't be too impulsive," the president chuckled, with a hint of warning in his tone, "You should know that in this industry, if you offend us, you will not be able to move forward."

"I know what I'm doing," Gu Jinyan took a deep breath, his eyes firm, "I believe that good prevails over evil, and justice is in the hearts of the people."

After saying that, he no longer paid attention to the president's roar on the other end of the phone and hung up the phone directly. Putting down the phone, Gu Jinyan rubbed his eyebrows and leaned back in his chair tiredly. He knew that rejecting the industry association would mean that Gu's company would face more fierce attacks, but he had no choice.

At this time, there was a gentle knock on the office door, and Su Li came in with a cup of coffee. She put the coffee on the table, walked behind Gu Jinyan, and gently massaged his shoulders.

"Thank you for your hard work." Su Li said softly, her tone full of heartache.

"It's okay, I can handle it." Gu Jinyan held Su Li's hand and gave her a reassuring smile.

"Just now, was that a call from the industry association?" Su Li asked, with a hint of worry in her tone.

Gu Jinyan nodded and briefly told Su Li about the conversation just now.

"They're going too far!" Su Li said angrily after hearing this, "How can they use such despicable means to suppress their competitors?"

"The business world is like a battlefield. Although their actions are not honorable, they are also understandable." Gu Jinyan said lightly, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.

"Then what should we do now?" Su Li asked, eyes full of worry.

"Don't worry, I have a plan." Gu Jinyan smiled confidently, with a gleam in his eyes. He stood up, walked to the window, looked at the bustling city outside, and said firmly: "We must take the initiative to attack and catch them off guard!"

Su Li looked at Gu Jinyan's tall and straight back, her heart full of trust and admiration. She knew that no matter what difficulties she encountered, Gu Jinyan would always find a solution.

"I believe you." Su Li walked to Gu Jinyan, held his hand, and said with a firm look in her eyes.

Gu Jinyan turned around, hugged Su Li in his arms, gently stroked her hair, and said in a gentle tone: "Thank you for always being by my side and supporting me."

"We are husband and wife and should support each other." Su Li raised her head, looked into Gu Jinyan's eyes, and said seriously.

Gu Jinyan lowered his head and kissed Su Li's forehead, then let her go, turned around and walked to the desk, picked up the phone, and began to deploy his plan...
