Chapter 287 Xiao Yue's Attack: The Reform Plan Hits a Bottleneck
Xiao Yue returned to the office and immediately began to formulate a transformation plan.
Financial statements, market analysis, technology assessment...
Various data intertwined into a complex web before her eyes.
As the work progressed, a cruel reality gradually emerged: the funds required for the transformation far exceeded her expectations.
The huge number was like a mountain, pressing her so hard that she couldn't breathe.
She immediately contacted President Sun, hoping to get more loans.
The two met in a cafe. The air was filled with the rich aroma of coffee, but it could not cover up the tense atmosphere between them.
"President Sun, our company's transformation plan has broad prospects. This will be a win-win cooperation." Xiao Yue tried to maintain a calm tone, but her clenched hands revealed her inner anxiety.
President Sun frowned and tapped the table with his fingers, making a dull sound.
"Ms. Xiao, I've carefully studied your plan, and it does have great potential. However, the risk of this investment is too great, and I need to be responsible to my shareholders." He paused, a hint of helplessness in his tone, "As you know, the recent economic situation is not good..."
President Sun's embarrassed expression was like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing the last glimmer of hope in Xiao Yue's heart.
She took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.
"President Sun, I understand your concerns. I will provide a more detailed risk assessment report as soon as possible and add some additional collateral."
After leaving the cafe, Xiao Yue felt weak all over.
The financial pressure was like a huge rock, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.
Before she could recover from the shock, Technician Chen called again.
"Mr. Xiao, we have encountered some technical difficulties. I'm afraid..." Technician Chen's voice was full of fatigue and frustration.
Xiao Yue's heart sank. "What exactly is the problem?"
"We have never been able to make breakthroughs in some key technologies, and the current research and development progress is far behind expectations." Technician Chen's voice became lower and lower, almost inaudible.
Xiao Yue rushed to the laboratory and saw that Technician Chen and his team looked exhausted, with bloodshot eyes.
The air was filled with anxiety and uneasiness, and the entire Xiao Group seemed to be shrouded in a layer of haze.
Xiao Yue looked at Technician Chen's tired face, feeling helpless.
Funding and technology, two huge mountains pressed down on her at the same time, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the office door.
"Mr. Xiao, someone wants to see you." The secretary's voice came from outside the door.
Xiao Yue rubbed his temples and said weakly, "Let him in."
A man in a suit walked in with a confident smile on his face.
"Miss Xiao, I've long heard of you. My last name is Zhang..."
Mr. Zhang is a venture capitalist introduced by Consultant Wu. He expressed great interest in Xiao Yue's transformation plan and was willing to provide some financial support.
This was undoubtedly a timely help. Xiao Yue seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and quickly handed him the detailed plan.
Mr. Zhang flipped through the book carefully and nodded from time to time, which gave Xiao Yue a glimmer of hope.
At the same time, after Shen Ting learned about Xiao Yue's predicament, he immediately mobilized his connections and contacted Expert Li, a well-known technical expert in the industry.
After carefully understanding the technical bottlenecks of Xiao's enterprise, expert Li made valuable suggestions to technician Chen on the research and development direction.
Technician Chen was overjoyed and immediately called the team together to discuss and make improvements.
The spark of hope was rekindled in the laboratory, the technical team seemed to be injected with new vitality, and everyone was full of enthusiasm.
After Xiao Yue heard the news, a heavy stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.
She immediately called Shen Ting, her voice filled with unconcealable excitement: "Thank you, Shen Ting, thank you so much!"
"You're welcome." Shen Ting's voice was low and powerful, giving Xiao Yue great encouragement.
However, the good times did not last long.
The pace of industry change suddenly accelerated, competitors launched new products and technologies, and market competition became extremely fierce.
Xiao Yue felt that time was running out, as if fate was against her.
Anxiety wrapped around her like a vine, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.
The entire Xiao Group felt this tense atmosphere.
Everyone was on edge, working overtime, and the office was filled with tension and depression.
Shareholder Zhou approached Xiao Yue again, his tone tinged with dissatisfaction: "Mr. Xiao, the transformation plan doesn't seem to be progressing smoothly..."
Xiao Yue took a deep breath and tried to control his emotions. Just as he was about to open his mouth to refute, he suddenly heard the secretary's urgent voice: "Mr. Xiao, something happened with Expert Li!"
The secretary rushed in in a panic, his face pale: "Boss Xiao, Expert Li has had a heart attack and is now in the hospital!"
Xiao Yue's heart tightened, as if being gripped tightly by an invisible hand, making it difficult to breathe.
Expert Li was a key figure in Xiao's corporate transformation plan, and his fall was undoubtedly adding insult to injury.
She rushed to the hospital immediately and paced back and forth anxiously at the door of the operating room.
Time passes by minute by minute, and every second seems as long as a century.
At the same time, shareholder Zhou came again to "demand accountability."
He stood at the door of Xiao Yue's office and said in a harsh tone: "Transformation, transformation! I think you want to transform Xiao's enterprise into bankruptcy!" Xiao Yue suppressed the grief and irritability in his heart and did not confront him head-on.
She calmly invited shareholder Zhou to visit several companies that had successfully transformed, and explained their transformation strategies and results in detail.
Shareholder Zhou looked disdainful at first, but as the visit progressed, his expression gradually changed, from suspicion to surprise, and then to thoughtfulness.
After the visit, shareholder Zhou's attitude softened significantly, and he even took the initiative to ask Xiao Yue about some details of the transformation.
Xiao Yue was surprised and relieved. The conflicts within the company had been eased, which was undoubtedly good news for her.
Consultant Wu brought a new plan, like a flash of lightning in the darkness, breaking through the fog in front of Xiao Yue's eyes.
The core of this plan is "phased transformation", which divides the originally large transformation plan into several small stages. Each stage has clear goals and feasible plans, which can effectively reduce capital requirements and gradually accumulate experience and resources.
Xiao Yue's eyes lit up, as if he had found a life-saving straw.
She immediately called the team together for a discussion. The office was filled with lively discussions, and everyone's face was filled with excitement and hope.
The Xiao Enterprise office area is filled with a positive atmosphere, like a ray of sunshine in winter, warm and full of hope.
Despite this, the two difficulties of funding and technology still stand like two huge mountains in front of Xiao Yue.
Time is running out and competitors are pressing in. How can Xiao Yue overcome these difficulties within a limited time?
She stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the bustling city night scene outside the window, took a deep breath, and a determined light flashed in her eyes.
At this moment, the cell phone suddenly rang, breaking the silence in the office.
Xiao Yue glanced at the caller ID and saw it was Shen Ting.
She answered the phone, but before she could even open her mouth, she heard Shen Ting's deep voice: "Xiao Yue, I've found a new investor..."
