The fallout from Jia Hao's betrayal had settled, but the scars remained. Lin Yue had spent the past week rebuilding trust—internally and externally. Though the press conference had helped, she knew that actions spoke louder than words.
And now, it was time to prove that their company wasn't just surviving.
It was thriving.
Zhang Wei sat across from Lin Yue in the conference room, arms crossed, studying her intently.
"So, let me get this straight," he said. "After everything we've been through, you want to launch another initiative?"
Lin Yue smirked. "I thought you liked a challenge."
Mei Lin raised an eyebrow. "What exactly do you have in mind?"
Lin Yue leaned forward, eyes gleaming with determination. "We need to show the world that we're not just reacting to crises—we're leading the industry. I want to roll out a game-changing feature on our platform."
Zhang Wei rubbed his chin. "Something that will set us apart from the competition?"
"Exactly," Lin Yue said. "Something they can't copy overnight."
Mei Lin grinned. "Alright, boss. Let's hear it."
After days of brainstorming, the team finalized their plan:
A personalized AI-driven mentorship program integrated into their platform.
Why was it revolutionary?
🔹 Users would receive tailored guidance based on their goals, industry, and experience level.
🔹 Live mentor interactions would connect users with industry professionals in real-time.
🔹 Exclusive career development challenges would encourage engagement and growth.
In short? It wasn't just a platform anymore.
It was an ecosystem designed to elevate its users to new heights.
Lin Yue stood before the investor board, presenting the new initiative.
"We've proven that we can survive challenges," she said. "Now, it's time to prove that we can shape the future."
She detailed the program's potential impact, scalability, and profitability. She backed it up with real data, market trends, and projections.
By the end of her presentation, Mr. Liu, the lead investor, leaned forward.
"This," he said, "is exactly the kind of innovation we want to back."
Lin Yue exchanged a knowing glance with Zhang Wei.
They had done it.
The Public Reaction
The announcement of the new feature sent waves through the industry.
Tech blogs praised the bold vision.
Users flooded their platform, eager to be part of the first wave of mentorship matches.
Even competitors took notice.
Lin Yue had successfully shifted the narrative.
They weren't just recovering from a scandal.
They were leading the future.
Late that night, Lin Yue stood on the rooftop of their office building, staring at the city lights.
Zhang Wei joined her, hands in his pockets. "You did it again."
She smirked. "We did."
Mei Lin's voice came from behind them. "Alright, lovebirds. Save the sentimental moment—we have a launch to finalize."
Lin Yue laughed, feeling lighter than she had in weeks.
They had faced storms. They had taken hits.
But they were still standing.
And they weren't done yet.
