After Mr. Xiang divorced, the president regretted it

Yan Jin put down the documents in his hand, rubbed his brows, and motioned Xiang Yu to sit on the sofa. "I have asked someone to handle the matter between President Wang and the Li Group. I believe there will be a result soon."

"Jin, you don't understand," Xiang Yu said with a hint of fatigue in his tone, "This is just the beginning. Vice President Liu and Director Chen's real target is me. They want to take this opportunity to seize power."

Yan Jin's eyes were stern. "They are too impatient. The company's current situation cannot withstand such a turmoil."

"So, we must resolve this matter as soon as possible." Xiang Yu's tone was firm, "We must not let them succeed."

In the office late at night, the two men discussed in low voices how to deal with this power struggle. Outside the window, the neon lights of the city flickered, reflecting their frowning brows.

The next day, a high-level meeting of the company was held in the conference room. Vice President Liu, contrary to his usual submissiveness, sharply criticized Xiang Yu for his mistakes in decision-making, which led to the company's recent crises.

"Mr. Xiang, as the leader of the company, you must be responsible for these mistakes!" Vice President Liu's voice was loud and clear, echoing in the conference room.

"Mr. Liu, please watch your words!" Independent Director Wu, who is always gentle, couldn't help but remind him.

"I am just stating the facts," Vice President Liu said without giving in. "The company needs a more capable leader to lead us out of this predicament!"

Xiang Yu listened calmly, his deep eyes swept over everyone present, and finally fell on Director Chen. Director Chen pretended to be calm and avoided his gaze, but his slightly trembling hands revealed his inner nervousness.

"Everyone," Xiang Yu finally spoke, his voice low and powerful, "The company has indeed encountered some difficulties recently, but this does not mean that we have to lose our composure, and we must not let those with ulterior motives take advantage of the opportunity!"

"As for the future of the company, I believe that everyone here hopes to see it get better and better." Xiang Yu paused, and glanced at everyone sharply, "Of course," he deliberately dragged out his voice, "The premise is that we must unite, not..."

Xiang Yu didn't finish his words, but the warning in his words was self-evident. The atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became more solemn, and everyone felt the invisible pressure.

At this moment, Director Chen suddenly stood up and said in a low voice: "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first." After that, he hurriedly left the meeting room.

Director Chen's sudden departure made the originally tense atmosphere of the meeting even more subtle. Everyone looked back and forth between his panicked back and Xiang Yu's calm face, speculating on the direction of this power struggle. The meeting ended hastily, but no one really left. Everyone talked in low voices, and anxiety and uneasiness spread in the air.

Director Chen walked out of the conference room quickly, took out his cell phone and dialed a number, lowering his voice and saying, "The plan has changed. Xiang Yu is not easy to deal with. We have to find another way..."

In the following days, undercurrents surged within the company. Director Chen frequently contacted senior executives from various departments privately, using project cooperation and profit sharing as bait to try to win them over to his camp. Some wavering middle-level managers, faced with the big cake painted by Director Chen, began to secretly move closer to him.

Yan Jin saw all of this. She found Xiang Yu and handed him a list. "This is what I compiled recently. These people are the ones that Director Chen is trying to win over. We need to make plans early."

Xiang Yu took the list, glanced at the names on it, and his face was gloomy: "It seems that he wants to cut off the source of the trouble and completely sideline me."

"Instead of passively defending, it is better to take the initiative," Yan Jin analyzed calmly, "I suggest taking the new project that the company is preparing as an opportunity to redistribute the responsibilities and powers of each department and take this opportunity to test their capabilities and loyalty."

Xiang Yu pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "Okay, let's do as you say. This time, I want to make them understand that the Xiang Group is not a chessboard that they can manipulate at will!"

A few days later, Xiang Group issued an internal announcement, announcing that it would launch a new strategic project and adjust the company's internal organizational structure. Heads of each department would need to reapply and compete for the corresponding positions.

As soon as the news came out, the company was in an uproar. Everyone understood that this was a war without the smoke of gunpowder, and the winner would gain greater power and benefits, while the loser might face the fate of being marginalized or even eliminated.

A bigger storm is coming...

In the days after the announcement, a tense atmosphere filled the Xiang Group. All departments were preparing for new projects and job competitions, and everyone was on edge, not daring to slack off.

Director Chen was also busy. He stepped up his efforts to win over people, hosting private banquets, promising high salaries, and even using some unknown "connections" to try to gain more support for himself. However, what made him uneasy was that some middle-level managers who had shown goodwill to him became ambiguous after the announcement and no longer responded to his call as actively as before.

All of this naturally did not escape the eyes of Xiang Yu and Yan Jin. They remained calm on the surface, but secretly they were closely following the development of the situation, waiting for the best time to take action.

At this moment, Independent Director Wu, who had remained neutral all along, suddenly made a suggestion. In order to ensure the smooth progress of the new project and the stability within the company, he suggested setting up an independent evaluation committee to conduct fair and open evaluations of all candidates and select the most suitable candidates based on their abilities and performance.

Independent Director Wu's proposal was supported by some senior managers who had significant influence within the company. Their statements undoubtedly gave Director Chen a loud slap in the face and made the already wavering middle-level managers even more cautious.

Director Chen was furious, but he could do nothing. He knew the reputation and status of Independent Director Wu within the company, and he knew that he did not have the strength to compete with him. He could only suppress his anger temporarily and wait and see.

"It seems that our Director Chen is now in a difficult situation." Yan Jin looked at the report in his hand with a sneer on his face.

Xiang Yu's face was calm and his eyes were deep: "No hurry, let him jump around for a few more days. When the time is right, I will let him know what it means to shoot oneself in the foot."

However, what Xiang Yu did not expect was that a bigger crisis was quietly approaching.

"I heard that the person in charge of this new project is none other than Vice President Liu. He is President Xiang's confidant. Others have no chance at all..."

"That's right. I heard that the data of the project that Director Chen was in charge of before seemed to have been tampered with..."

The rumor spread rapidly within the company like a virus, and everyone was in panic. The already tense atmosphere became even more subtle.

Late at night, in the quiet of the night, in Vice President Liu's office, he put down the phone in his hand, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Director Chen, this is just the beginning, the best is yet to come..."
