Chapter 1816 - Regarding the Spy
Chapter 1816: Regarding the Spy
At this moment, Old Mr. Wen was talking to Cao Zixing, the president of the Wen Corporation, in the office.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, then Wen Xinya entered the office holding a piece of document. “Grandpa, hope I didn’t disturb you!”
The clothing design being leaked brought the issue of the traitor to the forefront. Now it had become the biggest problem of the Wen Corporation. No matter what, she had to find an explanation for Grandpa.
When Old Mr. Wen saw her, his expression softened. “Xinya, come in and sit down.”
Wen Xinya took a deep breath. “Grandpa, I’m sorry. I didn’t manage the fashion design department, causing the design drawings of the new clothing line to be leaked, and nearly plagued the Wen Corporation with plagiarism. Our reputation and credibility of many years of business were ruined. It is all my fault.”
Although this matter had been satisfactorily resolved, what was wrong was still wrong, and she would not evade responsibility.
The root of the problem was that she was too confident, thinking that she already knew all about Xia Ruya’s plot to plant traitors in Wen family and that as long as she took precautions, she would not fall for it.
But she forgot how deep Xia Ruya’s mind was.
Old Mr. Wen’s complexion was a little softer, and he waved his hand. “It’s not your fault, you don’t need to blame yourself. Moreover, today’s press conference was quite successful. The fashion design department’s turnaround battle was really beautiful. Not only has it swept the Li Corporation under the carpet, but it has also saved the Wen Corporation stagnation in the past few days. This is something everyone can see.”
Anyone with a good eye could see that this time the Wen Corporation was able to turn around and avoid danger not because of the reputation and strength it accumulated for many years, but the clothing design talents that Xinya showed on the spot.
Xinya was the blessing of the Wen Corporation.
Cao Zixing also agreed. “This time the Li Corporation has completely taken the role of plagiarizing the Wen Corporation’s clothing design works. They used this unfair competition method to fight us. I am afraid that for a long time, they will be deeply involved in the opinions and criticism of the netizens and the public. Not only can they not maintain the situation, the 50% of the clothing market they snatched from the Wen family and even other businesses will also be greatly affected.”
Although Li Corporation had developed rapidly.
However, in the end, they had entered the mainland market for less than five years. Even if they could temporarily occupy the clothing market that originally belonged to the Wen Corporation, if they could not solve the problem of shallow management and thin foundation, it would only be a matter of time before they fell.
Wen Xinya sighed. “Xia Ruya’s actions against the Wen Corporation really showed that she was too eager to make some quick gains. Otherwise, the situation today would be totally different.”
If Xia Ruya did not bring the reporter to the door to cause trouble, resulting in her losing face instead, she would not have found the opportunity to use Bai Ling’s method.
Then, the Wen Corporation would really be known for plagiarism.
Even if she had a high level of fashion design accomplishment, so what?
Sometimes, what mattered was timing, not truth.
Old Mr. Wen thought deeply. “What do you think about the traitor?”
During this time, he had been secretly investigating traitors and also delineating some people, but the traitors involved a wide range of issues, so he didn’t blatantly investigate.
Now that their internal issue was put out on the table, the Wen Corporation could no longer keep a low profile, and it was imminent to rectify the internal parts of the company. However, at this juncture, an incoming storm was inevitable.
Cao Zixing said, “I think this matter will cause great disturbances. This time, Wen Corporation’s strength has been greatly reduced and our foundation has been greatly damaged by Li Corporation’s successive blows. Our internal group is already full of troubles. Wen Corporation is bound to be chaotic when it comes to investigating traitors.”
The design works of the fashion design department were leaked, and it was no doubt the traitor who was responsible.
Under the attack of the Li Corporation, the Wen Corporation could only face up to difficulties and stood up again because of its internal stability.
If the Wen Corporation became chaotic due to the investigation of the traitor, its heart would be disintegrated, and everyone would be in danger, they would instead give the Li Corporation an opportunity to disintegrate the Wen Corporation from the inside.
Wen Xinya agreed with Cao Zixing’s point of view. “The incident of the spy has been put on the table. I am afraid that at this time, everyone at the corporation is already frightened. If there is a lot of fuss, everyone will bite each other, frame each other, and stigmatize each other in order to get rid of the suspicion. At that time, more innocent people will be involved. The real traitors will take advantage of this opportunity to stir up the situation and completely disrupt the Wen Corporation. By then, Wen Corporation will be really over.”
Old Mr. Wen looked conflicted. “You’re right, but we can’t let these people lurk inside the corporation. These people’s hearts are not with us, if they stay in the Wen Corporation, sooner or later there will be a disaster.”
He knew very clearly that at this time, it was still necessary to focus on appeasing and stabilizing the overall situation.
But how could they let them sleep peacefully at night?
Cao Zixing said, “This matter is indeed a bit difficult to deal with. It’s already well-known that the traitor has been exposed. At this time, if you blindly appease, it will seem like the Wen Corporation is soft and foolish. Everyone is at risk. If we don’t check, the employees will feel uneasy and suspicious and speculate more about it. If they do, everyone will be even more panicked.”
For traitors, it should be done quickly, sooner rather than later.
If the problem persisted for too long, the people would be overwhelmed by the troubles and the gain would not be worth the loss.
But the key question was how to investigate this matter, and where to start from.
Wen Xinya said, “This matter is not difficult to handle. The incident of the traitor is only in the fashion design department, it emerged in no other departments. Since the fashion design department has the traitor, then we can take the fashion design department apart and continue the investigation. We can also prevent more of those traitors.”
In the presence of everyone, exposing Xia Ruya’s placement of spies in the fashion design department was for convenience, Wen Corporation’s next logical move was to vigorously investigate the spy.
And not let this spread to other departments.
Old Mr. Wen looked at her with appreciation. “It turns out that you had already figured this out. You pushed the fashion design department to the forefront and took advantage of this opportunity to investigate the traitors. Everyone thought that only the fashion design department had traitors. It shows our fierce means and also solves the negative impact of traitors in the Wen Corporation. It not only stabilizes the overall situation of the corporation but also stabilizes people’s hearts.”
He did not expect that at the press conference site, Xinya had already considered the issue so thoroughly. He was shocked.
A smile also appeared on Cao Zixing’s face. “This plan is very good!”
