Inside the luxurious conference room of Hongsheng Group, a space that once symbolized power and wealth, a suffocating tension and despair now hung in the air. Outside the windows, the city's neon lights blinked, the bustling clamor of traffic contrasting sharply with the dead silence inside. The senior executives of Hongsheng Group sat around the massive conference table, their faces etched with anxiety and fear; their past arrogance had long since vanished.
Chairman Zhou Hong's expression was so gloomy it seemed it could drip water. He slammed the documents in his hand heavily onto the table. Inside were the recent overwhelming negative media reports about Hongsheng Group, along with the latest updates on the relentless investigations by the discipline inspection commission and the police. "What on earth is going on? How could our plan completely fall apart?" Zhou Hong roared angrily, his gaze sweeping over everyone present like a knife, as if searching for the culprit.
Deputy General Manager Sun Yao lowered his head, not daring to meet Zhou Hong's eyes. His voice carried a trace of a tremor: "Chairman Zhou, the public pressure is simply too great, and our PR tactics are completely useless. Besides, the discipline inspection commission and the police are playing for keeps this time; the evidence they hold is piling up."
