After getting the certificate, you will be a widow

Chapter 361 Received a Threatening Letter

At this time, the employees sitting in the Chu Group's conference room waiting for the meeting were whispering to each other, and they all hoped that the meeting would be suddenly cancelled.

But they were all disappointed.

Acting President Ru Meng and the President’s Special Assistant Chen Yi walked into the conference room together.

Chen Yi: "Sorry! I was delayed a bit while discussing some work with the acting president. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time."

All the staff members said in unison: "It's okay."

But in fact, they would rather say that it doesn’t matter if there is no meeting. Especially those departments with problems, they are more worried about being criticized by the new acting president in public, so they don’t want to hold a meeting.

As soon as Ru Meng sat down, she got straight to the point: "Today, as per the usual practice, each department will review the work done last week and the work plans for the future."

Chen Yi added: "This is the first time that the acting president has attended the company's weekly meeting. Let's start with the marketing department and follow the usual order."

After listening to the work reports of various departments, Rumeng gave a speech:

"Due to time constraints, I will not comment on other departments today. I will focus on the sales department. Since the month before last, the company's sales performance has been declining. Can the sales department tell me what caused the decline in performance?"

Director of Sales Department: "The sales prices of several projects of our company have been inexplicably suppressed by the market since the beginning of last month. If we lower the prices, we will suffer losses. If we do not lower the prices, the market will be cold. This is one of the main reasons for the decline in sales."

"We are also working with the marketing and planning departments to explore and customize plans, but we still have no clue. We must find the source and reasons for the suppression before we can formulate an effective strategy."

"Okay, let's find out the reason for the suppression of our company's sales as quickly as possible and develop an effective response plan."

Director of Sales Department: Madam President, we have been working hard, but there are some strange phenomena. No matter how hard we try, it seems that we can hardly get any results. We always lose the clues while investigating. It feels very weird. "

Rumeng and Chen Yi couldn't help but look at each other for a few seconds, and then threw the difficult problem to Chen Yi to finish it.

"Assistant Chen, what do you think?"

Chen Yi secretly groaned, "Young Madam, please don't always embarrass me when it's time to clean up."

He thought for a moment and said, "This matter is indeed very strange. We must think about it carefully. We can't act too hastily, but we can't stop moving forward either."

Everyone present looked at Chen Yi in surprise. They were all confused, wondering if Special Assistant Chen was being merciful today and was helping them slow down the pace of their market research to buy more time to save their sales.

But in fact, they would be wrong.

Zhen Yi was trying to save Ru Meng's situation. They knew that if they continued to talk about this matter, they would reveal a lot of information that should not be leaked.

Ru Meng was silent for a moment. "Assistant Chen is right. If the suppression is aimed at our Chu Group, then the other party must have done a lot of homework, and it was done in secret. The resistance of fighting openly and secretly is great, and your work is difficult to progress. I can understand."

She paused for a moment, then continued, "I'll give you enough time. While maintaining the current performance, you can't stop there. You must find a way to improve the performance."

The sales department, marketing department, and planning department all responded: "OK, President, we got it."

Ru Meng glanced at her hands and realized that the time was almost up. She immediately announced, "Today's meeting ends here. I hope that all departments will continue to work hard. Special Assistant Chen will arrange afternoon tea for me later, and I will pay for it myself."

Chen Yi: "Okay, thank you, President!"

All the employees present said in unison: "The president is so nice, thank you!"

When Rumeng and Chen Yi returned to the president's office, the administrative clerk delivered a courier.

Administrative clerk: "Assistant Chen, this is an email to the president's office, but there is no signature or sender address. You and the president are in a meeting, so we signed for it on your behalf."

Chen Yi took the express from the administrative clerk: "Thank you!"

"You're welcome, Special Assistant Chen."

Chen Yi looked at the express and hesitated for a moment before knocking on the door and entering the president's office. "Madam, we just received an anonymous express for the president's office. I don't know who sent it from and where. Do you want to open it?"

"If the bomb or poisonous gas is eliminated, you might as well open it and take a look." Ru Meng said.

Her only worry was that it would explode when opened, or that poisonous gas would be emitted when opened.

Chen Yi smiled and said, "It shouldn't be a big problem. I'll open it. Please move away and we can keep some distance."

Ru Meng: "Are you planning to use yourself as a test subject? Mr. Chu and I don't want to lose such a good special assistant."

"Then I'll open it carefully." Chen Yi said. After hesitating for a moment, he opened the package carefully.

The package was sealed twice, and inside was a piece of letter paper and a finger. "If you want to redeem that loser Chu Huaan, bring 200 million before dark. I have no patience, otherwise you can just wait to collect his body."

Chen Yi pursed his lips and frowned: "Young Madam, what the hell is this? Isn't Uncle Chu still at home? How could he be kidnapped?"

Ru Meng was shocked: "What? Who was kidnapped?"

Rumeng hurried over to take a look, and was really scared when she saw the fingers, but she quickly calmed down.

After taking a deep breath, she said to Chen Yi, "You call Mr. Chu, and I'll call my grandmother to see what's going on."

Chen Yi nodded slightly, and then they both called Chu Xing and their grandmother at the same time.

The first person to answer the phone was Chu Xing. As soon as the call was connected, Chen Yi hurriedly asked, "Mr. Chu, where are you now?"

Chu Xing was puzzled: "I'm at home, what's the hurry?"

Chen Yi confessed: "The President's Office has just received an anonymous express letter, without a signed address or name. The other party demands a ransom of 200 million before dark tonight, otherwise your father will be killed."

Chu Xing was stunned: "Who is so absurd? My father is at home, and my grandmother and Aunt Zhang are taking care of him."

He then asked, "Where is the young lady? What's the situation with the young lady?"

Chen Yi: "The young lady is fine. She is calling her grandmother, but it seems that no one has answered the phone. We just came back from the meeting and received such a courier. I believe it was delivered nearby."

Chu Xing: “Don’t worry, grandma is busy and may not have noticed the phone ringing. I’ll go check it out, you comfort the young lady.

"I think it might be someone I know who did this. We'll discuss countermeasures later. It's probably someone who's crazy about money."

"Okay, Mr. Chu, I'll tell the young lady right now, don't worry, let's see what happens. Then we can call the police and handle it.
