Two days later, Wei Yumeng arrived at the company again with her new proposal.
To prevent a repeat of the previous incident, she refused any reception and went directly to the conference room.
However, by the time she arrived, Wen Xueshan was already there.
"Mrs. Zhan, I didn't expect you to be so early, but it's good that I arrived even earlier. Does this also indicate that my attitude towards this matter is more serious?"
Wen Xueshan looked at Wei Yumeng with an arrogant demeanor. She never thought Wei Yumeng was much more capable than her.
Although she was indeed surprised by the content of Wei Yumeng's contract when she first received it.
However, later, when she was summarizing and arranging, she found that Wei Yumeng's proposal was not the best, and she was very satisfied with the subsequent revisions, which she considered her true strength.
Wei Yumeng merely glanced at her indifferently. "I don't know about your attitude, but one thing is certain: you've gone to great lengths to get this project."
"What do you mean by that?" Wen Xueshan's eyes turned dangerous. "Mrs. Zhan, you should be responsible for your words."
Just as Wei Yumeng was about to speak, Mrs. Chaikofsky pushed the door open and entered.
"My apologies to both of you, I'm late."
Wei Yumeng quickly said, "No, we just arrived."
"But judging by your appearances, you seem ready," Mrs. Chaikofsky looked at the two of them.
Wen Xueshan was full of confidence. "That's right, I'm ready."
She was fully confident of winning this time.
Before coming, she had already learned from an employee she had arranged there that a similar project was indeed in progress.
And that proposal had been personally arranged by Mrs. Chaikofsky.
Sometimes, a better proposal is not as effective as a proposal that resonates with others.
She was confident that she could make Mrs. Chaikofsky resonate with her proposal.
Compared to Wen Xueshan's confidence, Wei Yumeng was a little worried.
Precisely because she knew how difficult it was to make an ordinary project stand out, she had to find an alternative way to solve the problem.
However, she was unsure if Mrs. Chaikofsky would accept this method.
Although she had let Zhan Mohan review the proposal, people's thoughts were always different. Until the result was out, Wei Yumeng could only worry.
"If that's the case, please hand over your results," Mrs. Chaikofsky pointed to the table in front of her.
Both Wei Yumeng and Wen Xueshan placed their proposals on the table.
However, Mrs. Chaikofsky did not immediately look at their proposals. Instead, she said to them with a solemn expression.
"Actually, something has happened in our company recently. According to investigations, an employee was found to have connections with external companies, and is suspected of leaking company information to the outside. The reason I was late was that I was handling this matter. Although the person has been found, we cannot determine which company conspired with her. Do you have any solutions for such a situation?"
Wei Yumeng was slightly taken aback upon hearing this. Had Mrs. Chaikofsky already discovered something?
Originally, she had wanted to make Wen Xueshan's plan fail through this competition. Now, perhaps it was no longer necessary?
Wei Yumeng thought for a moment and then said, "If you want to find the mastermind behind him, you can only search through their contacts and even network accounts. Perhaps you can find the content of their communication with the mastermind, and then deduce who the mastermind is."
Mrs. Chaikofsky nodded and then looked at Wen Xueshan. "What do you think?"
Wen Xueshan looked a little awkward, but still braced herself and said, "I think Mrs. Zhan's words have merit. In this situation, the other party is unlikely to reveal the identity of the person behind them voluntarily, so we can only search through indirect means."
Mrs. Chaikofsky nodded again. "You are both right, but sometimes other methods can be tried."
This matter seemed to be just an unexpected incident. After asking, Mrs. Chaikofsky proceeded to review the proposals of the two as originally planned.
Wen Xueshan breathed a sigh of relief. If Mrs. Chaikofsky had continued to question her on this matter, she was truly worried that she would accidentally reveal something.
However, now that Mrs. Chaikofsky knew about it, she had to quickly eliminate any potential traces after the meeting.
Wei Yumeng observed her state. Now, even Wei Yumeng could not guess what Mrs. Chaikofsky's intentions were.
She seemed to have raised this issue and knew something, but why didn't she continue to probe further?
The conference room was silent, with each of the three people having their own thoughts and plans.
Finally, Mrs. Chaikofsky finished reading both proposals and looked up again.
"Both of your proposals are excellent. Mrs. Zhan's bold approach is very much to my liking and full of challenges. As for Miss Wen, your proposal is very stable. Although it's not outstanding enough, when used in the project, it can ensure the most stable development of the project."
After speaking, she suddenly changed the subject. "By the way, we have already investigated and found that the previous employee seems to have leaked the situation of our project."
Upon hearing this, Wen Xueshan's body visibly trembled.
"And the final answer regarding that matter is precisely in both of your proposals."
Wei Yumeng was somewhat confused. "What does that mean?"
Mrs. Chaikofsky looked at Wen Xueshan. "Do you want to explain everything yourself, or should I?"
Wen Xueshan naturally could not admit it easily. Once she admitted it, some things would be confirmed.
"Mrs. Chaikofsky, I don't understand what you mean."
Mrs. Chaikofsky nodded. "Alright, then let me explain. In fact, I discovered this problem a day ago. In order to test the person behind that employee, I deliberately added a non-existent project proposal. And in that proposal, I left something that could serve as proof."
Wei Yumeng then understood. In this case, Wen Xueshan's proposal must be problematic.
She might have completely fallen into Mrs. Chaikofsky's trap.
As expected, Wen Xueshan's face turned much paler, and she looked unwell.
"Mrs. Zhan's proposal is bold and extremely innovative. I have never seen such a proposal before. However, Miss Wen, your proposal is very interesting. Although you made revisions according to your personal style, you have already revealed a flaw."
"No, Mrs. Chaikofsky, you must be mistaken. A similar proposal doesn't prove anything."
Wen Xueshan vehemently defended herself. Even if it came to this point, if Mrs. Chaikofsky did not present concrete evidence, she could not admit it.
