After Mr. Xiang divorced, the president regretted it

Chapter 467 The Tragedy of Cooperation

The next morning, the air was filled with a sense of depression, as if a storm was about to come. Xiang Yu was wearing a black handmade suit, his sharp eyebrows and eyes were cold, and he exuded a fierce aura. Yan Jin was wearing a smart white suit, and her exquisite makeup could not hide the anger in her eyes, like a cheetah ready to attack.

At ten o'clock, Jack walked into Xiang Yu's office with some trepidation. He originally thought that with his years of smooth business skills, he might be able to find a way around it. However, when he saw the cold expressions on Xiang Yu and Yan Jin's faces, and the thick stack of documents on the table, he knew that today's test might not be so easy to pass.

"Mr. Jack, long time no see." Xiang Yu's tone was cold, without a trace of warmth, "I hope you can give us a reasonable explanation, why did you suddenly unilaterally tear up the contract?"

Jack took a deep breath and forced a smile on his face: "Mr. Xiang, Mr. Yan, please believe me, we don't want this to happen. It's just that the company has encountered some force majeure factors recently..."

"Force majeure?" Yan Jin sneered and threw a document in front of Jack. "Mr. Jack, please take a closer look. This is the result of an overnight investigation by our private detective. The 'force majeure' you mentioned may have another hidden story!"

On the document, there were photos of Jack's secret meeting with another company, as well as evidence of the cooperation agreement signed by both parties. The photo was very clear, and the smile on Jack's face formed a sharp contrast with his panic at the moment.

"This...this..." Jack's face was pale, with beads of sweat oozing out of his forehead, but he still tried to argue, "This is just a normal business negotiation, it doesn't mean anything..."

"Really?" Xiang Yu's tone was cold, with unquestionable majesty, "What about this one? The content of the cooperation agreement between you and their company is almost exactly the same as ours, except that the price is lower and the profit is higher, right?"

Xiang Yu threw another document on the table, his tone full of undisguised sarcasm. Jack was completely panicked, he knew that all his lies and disguises seemed pale and powerless in the face of hard evidence.

The office was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. After a long while, Jack sat down on the sofa dejectedly, with a hint of pleading in his tone: "Mr. Xiang, Mr. Yan, I admit that I was bewildered and did something wrong..."

"Wrong?" Yan Jin snorted coldly, his tone sharp, "You want to shirk responsibility with just one word 'wrong'? Do you know how much our company has lost because of your breach of contract?!"

Jack opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Xiang Yu's cold look.

"Mr. Jack," Xiang Yu said coldly, without a trace of emotion, "It's too late to say this now. I'll give you two choices. Either you compensate our company for all the losses according to the contract, or..."

He paused and said word by word, "See you in court!"

Jack's face was pale, he knew he was at his wit's end. He fell to his knees with a thud, begging in a trembling voice: "Boss Xiang, Boss Yan, please give me another chance! I am willing to do my best to make up for the loss, I just ask you not to kill me!"

A trace of disgust flashed in Yan Jin's eyes. She hated people who only thought of begging for mercy after something happened. She was about to speak, but was stopped by Xiang Yu's eyes.

Xiang Yu looked at Jack coldly, without any mercy in his tone: "Mr. Jack, in the business world, the most important thing is integrity. Since you have chosen to betray, you should bear the corresponding consequences. It's too late to regret it now."

"But..." Jack wanted to say something, but was ruthlessly interrupted by Xiang Yu.

"I'll give you one last chance to leave here. Otherwise, I don't mind asking the security to ask you to leave." Xiang Yu's tone was cold and unquestionable.

Jack got up from the ground dejectedly, knowing that he no longer had any bargaining chips. He staggered out of the office, looking lonely and embarrassed.

Watching Jack leave, Yan Jin's eyes flashed with a hint of pleasure, but it was soon replaced by worry: "Xiang Yu, are you just going to let him go? I'm worried that he will continue to hurt the company."

Xiang Yu gently patted the back of Yan Jin's hand, with a soothing tone in his voice: "Don't worry, I have arranged it. He won't have the opportunity to stir up trouble again."

On the same day, Xiang Group issued a notice publicly condemning Jack's breach of contract and announced that it would take legal action to protect the company's legitimate rights and interests. This notice was like a bombshell, causing an uproar in the industry.

All major media outlets reported the incident, and public opinion overwhelmingly condemned Jack's betrayal, calling him a "business scum" and a "cancer of the industry." Jack's reputation plummeted, and his company was also implicated, with its stock price plummeting...

"Mr. Jack, what should our company do now? Please say something!" The assistant looked at the man in front of him who seemed to have aged ten years overnight, and there was a hint of panic and fear in his tone.

Jack slumped in his boss chair, his eyes empty, as if he had lost all hope. He just muttered to himself, "It's over, everything is over..."

Jack's company, once a rising star in the industry, is now like a ship destroyed by a storm, swaying in the wind and rain and likely to sink at any time. The stock price plunge was just the beginning. Soon after, major partners demanded to terminate cooperation, banks urged loans, employees were panicked, and the company was filled with panic and despair.

At the same time, in the top floor conference room of Xiang Group, the atmosphere was completely different. Xiang Yu stood in front of the French window, overlooking the entire city, his eyes deep and sharp. Behind him, Yan Jin was arranging the work in an orderly manner, with unquestionable majesty in his cold voice: "Notify all department heads to hold an emergency meeting in ten minutes."

Ten minutes later, the conference room was full of people, and everyone's face was full of solemnity. Xiang Yu turned around, glanced at everyone, and said in a steady and powerful tone: "Everyone, I believe everyone has already known about Jack's company."

"Jack's betrayal has had a certain impact on our company, but please believe that we have the ability and confidence to overcome the current difficulties." Xiang Yu's voice was like a reassurance, which gradually calmed down the originally panicked employees.

"Director Yan, do you have any suggestions for partners for the company's new project?" Xiang Yu turned his gaze to Yan Jin with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.

Yan Jin looked calm and prepared as he opened the document in his hand. He analyzed calmly, "Jack's company no longer meets the conditions for cooperation. We need to find a new partner as soon as possible. I have screened several companies. Their strength and reputation meet our requirements..."

Yan Jin explained the plan in a clear and logical manner. Every data and every detail was carefully considered and scrutinized, showing her extraordinary business acumen and strong aura. In the conference room, everyone was listening carefully, and the original uneasiness and anxiety were gradually replaced by hope and confidence.

"Everyone, I believe that as long as we unite as one, we will be able to overcome the current difficulties and make the Xiang Group more prosperous!" Xiang Yu's powerful voice echoed in the conference room, and everyone felt the confidence and determination emanating from him.

Outside the window, the setting sun dyed the entire city golden. Xiang Yu and Yan Jin stood side by side in front of the window, looking into the distance. There was no trace of fatigue on their faces, only determination and confidence in the future.

"It's time for us to take action." Xiang Yu turned his head and looked at Yan Jin, with a determined smile on his lips... The afterglow of the setting sun gradually faded away, night fell, and the city lights came on, decorating the entire city like a dazzling galaxy. The top floor office of Xiang Group was still brightly lit.

Yan Jin sorted out the documents one by one, rubbed his sore brows, and looked at Xiang Yu who was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and making a phone call. His tall figure looked particularly upright under the light, with clear lines on his profile, revealing an aura of majesty without even being angry.

"Well, speed up the process and make sure to find a suitable partner as soon as possible to fill the vacancy left by Jack." Xiang Yu spoke decisively with unquestionable majesty.

After ending the call, Xiang Yu turned around, walked to the desk, picked up the documents Yan Jin had sorted out, quickly glanced through them, and praised: "You did a great job, and your efficiency is as high as ever."

"It's my job." Yan Jin responded calmly, his tone calm and peaceful.

"Go back and rest early, it's already late." Xiang Yu looked at Yan Jin's slightly tired expression, a trace of heartache flashed in his eyes, but he quickly concealed it.

"You should go to bed early too." Yan Jin said, picked up her bag, turned around and left the office without any hesitation.

Looking at Yan Jin's departing back, Xiang Yu's eyes flashed with complex emotions, including regret, reluctance, but more of determination. He knew that if he wanted to win Yan Jin back, he would need to make more efforts.

In the next few days, Xiang Yu and Yan Jin put all their energy into finding new partners. They visited several companies in person, but none of them met the requirements.

"It seems that we have to find another way." Xiang Yu sat at his desk, tapping his fingers lightly on the table, lost in thought.

"I have received some news." Yan Jin put down the documents in his hand and said calmly, "I heard that a company called 'Xingchen' in Country A is interested in expanding overseas markets recently. They are very powerful and have great influence in the local market."

"'Xingchen'?" Xiang Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, the name seemed familiar.

"Their CEO is called Amy. She once studied in Country M, and you..." Yan Jin paused here, as if she realized that she had let something slip.

"With me?" Xiang Yu asked, with a vague premonition in his heart.
