The theft of confidential documents of the "Starry Sea" project was like a heavy bomb exploding inside the Xiang Group, and panic quickly spread among the employees. Everyone was whispering, speculating on the subsequent development of the incident and the future fate of the company.

Xiang Yu and Yan Jin knew very well that at this critical moment, they must act decisively to stabilize the morale of the troops.

"We have found out that this incident was deliberately planned by a competitor company, which bribed our internal employees and stole project secrets." Xiang Yu's voice echoed in the conference room, firm and powerful, "We will never tolerate such despicable behavior! We reserve the right to pursue legal responsibility!"

Yan Jin then added: "At the same time, we also deeply realize that the company has loopholes in internal management and information security, which gives criminals an opportunity to take advantage of it. In this regard, we will comprehensively strengthen the company's internal management system and establish a more complete information security system to prevent such incidents from happening again."

Xiang Yu and Yan Jin's words were powerful, showing their determination and courage in facing the crisis. The originally restless employees in the audience gradually calmed down, and they saw hope and strength in the two leaders.

After the meeting, Yan Jin immediately plunged into her intense work. She personally contacted all the affected suppliers, explained the ins and outs of the incident to them in detail, and expressed her sincerity in continuing the cooperation.

"Mr. Wang, please believe us. This incident is just an isolated incident and will not affect our long-term cooperative relationship." Yan Jin said sincerely, "We will solve the problem as soon as possible to ensure the normal progress of the project."

However, some suppliers are concerned about this incident. They are worried that their cooperation with Xiang Group will be affected, and they have expressed their intention to re-evaluate the risks of cooperation.

Yan Jin knew that restoring the normal operation of the supply chain was a top priority, otherwise the "Starry Sea" project would face huge risks. She worked overtime for several consecutive days to communicate and negotiate with various suppliers, trying her best to eliminate their doubts.

Meanwhile, Cheng sat quietly in his office, listening to his colleagues discussing the current state of the company. He knew that now was the best time for him to take action...

"Mr. Yan, please take a look at this material..." Cheng knocked on the door of Yan Jin's office, his tone calm, as if it was just a routine work report.

Yan Jin raised her head, rubbed her tired eyes, and motioned Cheng to sit down and talk. Cheng handed her a document and explained concisely: "This is a new alternative material solution developed by our team, which can effectively reduce the dependence on Z-type raw materials."

Yan Jin took the document and quickly glanced through it, with a look of surprise gradually appearing on her face. "Substitutes for Z-type raw materials have always been a difficult problem in the industry. How come you have solved it so quickly?" Her tone was filled with disbelief, but more of it was surprise and admiration.

"Our team worked day and night on research and development and finally found a breakthrough," Cheng said with a hint of pride. "Although the performance parameters of the new material are still slightly different from those of the Z-type raw material, it can already meet the basic needs of the 'Starry Sea' project."

Yan Jin took a deep breath and suppressed her excitement. She understood what this meant. This was not only a technological breakthrough, but also a perfect response to the company's predicament.

At the same time, headhunter Wu rushed to Yan Jin's office and announced excitedly: "Boss Yan, I have contacted a new supplier of raw materials. They can provide emergency supply to solve our urgent needs!"

Yan Jin was overjoyed and immediately asked for details: "What is their supply volume and price? Is it reliable?"

"I have verified through various channels that this supplier is strong and reputable, and has no business dealings with the Zheng Group." Wu Lietou answered confidently, "I have reached a preliminary agreement with them. The supply volume can meet our needs, and the price is also reasonable."

Yan Jin finally let go of her worries. She said to Head Hunter Wu gratefully, "Thank you so much this time. You helped us a lot!"

The successive good news gave Yan Jin hope. She immediately called together the company's top management and announced the alternative material plan and the new raw material supply plan. As soon as the news came out, the morale of the company was boosted, and the panic that had filled the air was swept away.

After a brief stagnation, the "Starry Sea" project is back on track and even more stable than before. Xiang Yu looked at everything in front of him and felt a sense of admiration for Yan Jin. This woman always showed amazing courage and wisdom in times of crisis and led the team through difficulties.

However, just as the Xiang Group was working together to overcome the difficulties, a storm of public opinion against them was quietly brewing. Zheng, the HR manager of the Zheng Group, accepted the media interview with a smile on his face. He cleared his throat and slowly said, "Regarding the series of events that have occurred recently in the Xiang Group..." HR manager Zheng pushed his glasses, and a gleam of light flashed under the lenses, with a hint of imperceptible pride. "I deeply regret the series of events that have occurred recently in the Xiang Group. Commercial espionage is intolerable. It has seriously disrupted the market order and damaged the environment of fair competition..." He spoke righteously, as if he had become a messenger of justice, conducting a moral judgment on the Xiang Group.

However, the media and the public were not convinced. A reporter asked pointedly: "Manager Zheng, as far as I know, your company had contact with the arrested spies. Is there any profit transfer between them? Is your company also involved in the theft of trade secrets?"

The sudden question caught HR Manager Zheng off guard. He denied it in a panic: "This is completely nonsense! Our company has always attached great importance to business ethics and would never do such a thing!"

However, his weak defense only exacerbated people’s suspicion. Negative news about Zheng’s Group was rampant on the Internet, and some companies that had cooperated with Zheng’s Group also stood up and accused it of unfair competition.

At this time, Professor Wang and industry celebrity Liu once again made public statements to praise Xiang Group's crisis handling ability. "Xiang Group showed strong resilience and sense of responsibility in the face of the crisis. They took quick action, actively responded to challenges, and effectively safeguarded their own interests and market order." Professor Wang said.

Liu, an industry celebrity, said: "I believe that Xiang Group has the ability to overcome the current difficulties and continue to make greater contributions to the development of the industry."

The voices of these two highly respected figures undoubtedly gave the market a shot in the arm. The public's attention gradually shifted from questioning the Xiang Group to disdain for the Zheng Group.

Xiang Yu put down his phone. On the screen, the company's stock price curve was slowly rising. He turned his head and looked out the window. The city with tall buildings was shining with golden light in the sunset, as if foreshadowing hope and the future.

"It seems that this storm is about to pass..."

"No," Yan Jin's voice suddenly sounded behind him, with a hint of solemnity, "This is just the beginning." She walked to the French window and looked into the distance with deep eyes, "The real challenge is still to come..."

Xiang Yu frowned slightly. He knew Yan Jin would never speak without a purpose. "What you are talking about is..."

"Supply chain." Yan Jin turned around and looked at him sharply. "Although Zheng's Group has suffered a setback this time, they will not give up. Look." She handed a document to Xiang Yu. "This is the latest development of several of our important raw material suppliers. They... are all very close to Zheng's Group."

Xiang Yu took the document and his face gradually became serious. As Yan Jin said, several suppliers with whom they have maintained long-term cooperation have recently had close contact with Zheng Group, and two of them have even unilaterally proposed to terminate the contract. The raw materials provided by these suppliers account for 40% of their company's production chain.

"It seems that the Zheng Group wants to cut off our supply chain." Xiang Yu said in a deep voice, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

"Yes, they are forcing us to compromise." Yan Jin walked to the wine cabinet, poured two glasses of whiskey, and handed one to Xiang Yu. "However, they made a wrong calculation. We will not sit still and wait for death."

Xiang Yu took the wine glass and shook it gently. The amber wine shone charmingly under the light, just like his eyes at the moment, full of confidence and determination. "I have arranged for headhunter Wu to contact Cheng Renren. As long as we can recruit him, we can quickly establish our own raw material supply channel and completely get rid of our dependence on them."

Yan Jin nodded gently, with an appreciative smile on her lips. "Great minds think alike. I have asked Professor Wang to act as a matchmaker and invite several industry experts to form a technical research team to overcome the technical difficulties as soon as possible."

The two smiled at each other, clinked their glasses and drank the wine in one gulp. The crystal glasses made a clear sound, like a song of victory, echoing in the silent office.

In the banquet hall downstairs, there was constant laughter and joy. The employees toasted to celebrate, their faces filled with the joy of victory. This crisis not only did not defeat them, but made them more united and more confident to face future challenges.

Xiang Yu looked at the lively scene in front of him, and a warm feeling surged in his heart. He knew that all this was inseparable from Yan Jin's planning and the hard work of every employee. His eyes fell on Yan Jin in the crowd not far away. She was chatting and laughing with several employees, elegant and confident, radiant.

At this moment, something seemed to be melting quietly in a corner of his heart...
