Chapter 400: Chapter 400: This Practice Is Really Unscrupulous

Lu Youxi snorted coldly and said, "I have never been someone to hold an empty reputation. Since you all think I’m shameless and stole someone else’s spot, then I might as well let you know just what the wife of Zhou Shuyan is capable of doing."

"What I just mentioned is a trivial matter for me," said Lu Youxi. "It seems you never considered if I really wanted to take shortcuts, why would I bother competing in an interview with you all and participate in Chengzhou’s support program so openly?"

"All I need to say is let’s collaborate directly with Chengzhou, why go through all this trouble?" Lu Youxi snorted again. "And stealing someone else’s spot? Do I need to do that?"

"You have a point," Xiang Shihong’s voice suddenly echoed from the doorway.

Except for Lu Youxi, who remained calm, the rest turned towards the door in surprise.

They saw Xiang Shihong and Shen Yanqing standing at the doorway with a few others, it was unclear how long they had been listening there.

The six people opposite Lu Youxi couldn’t help but wonder, do all Chengzhou folks love to eavesdrop from doorways?

"Vice President Xiang, Manager Shen," everyone greeted in unison.

Lu Youxi also stood up and greeted them as usual.

Xiang Shihong strode over. "You kept me in the dark pretty badly! You said you are our CEO’s wife, so why didn’t you tell me? Even a slight hint would have done! It made me treat you as a young one I admired, I was even about to introduce a boyfriend to you!"

The six people opposite Lu Youxi, upon hearing Xiang Shihong, wondered if what he said was true or false.

Were they putting on an act?

All to prove Little Pink Book didn’t take any shortcuts?

"Don’t say you didn’t know, I myself was in the dark," said Lu Youxi, glancing at the six people opposite her. "This matter is a bit complicated, let’s talk after the meeting. I really didn’t mean to hide it from you."

Hearing that Lu Youxi was willing to explain it to him made Xiang Shihong somewhat surprised and very pleased.

Not knowing before was one thing, he had simply thought of Lu Youxi as a competent and likable junior.

But now that he knew Lu Youxi was the CEO’s wife, and yet her attitude towards him hadn’t changed, she was even willing to explain the reasons to him.

This consistent attitude, which had not changed from the beginning, really moved Xiang Shihong and made him look at Lu Youxi in a new light.

Lu Youxi had never thought her change in status was anything to brag about and had never had the intention to turn her back on anyone once she gained influence.

The same as before, so now.

This quality was both surprising and admirable.

Lu Youxi was so young, and many who were much older than Lu Youxi could not match her character.

Even her way of addressing him had remained the same.

Xiang Shihong felt deeply gratified, believing his judgment was sound and he hadn’t misread her.

No wonder he had liked Lu Youxi so much from the start.

"Alright," Xiang Shihong agreed with a cheery nod.

When he turned back to face the six individuals, Xiang Shihong’s expression became serious. Without showing anger, his earnest demeanor still frightened them enough not to dare breathe too loudly.

"You are not only questioning Little Pink Book but also challenging the professionalism, fairness, and integrity of Chengzhou," Xiang Shihong said gravely. "We at Chengzhou neither need nor have to give anyone shortcuts in matters that require fair competition. As President Lu said, as the CEO’s wife, her relationship with Chengzhou is evident. If she really needed a shortcut, she wouldn’t need to participate in such an interview, she could have simply collaborated directly."

"You may still not believe what I’m saying and think we are making excuses, but during Little Pink Book’s interview, we genuinely didn’t know about President Lu’s relationship with the CEO," Xiang Shihong said coldly. "We found out at the same time you did."

"Little Pink Book was selected based on their merit," Xiang Shihong stated. "Before today’s meeting, I anticipated that some of you might harbor these suspicions, malice, and even jealousy towards Little Pink Book."

Xiang Shihong didn’t spare their feelings.

If they could utter those words, what face did they have to save?

Xiang Shihong also expected that after speaking, those six would be dissatisfied.

Sure enough, their expressions indeed showed it.

Xiang Shihong scoffed lightly, his lips curling as he said, "So, I brought out our internal selection documents."

"Technically, these documents shouldn’t and needn’t be shown to you. They are the result of our department’s internal selection and discussion, involving our internal analysis and are regarded as confidential," Xiang Shihong explained.

Although he said this, the six individuals couldn’t tell if it was true or false.

They always wondered if Xiang Shihong would so readily reveal what he called secrets to them.

But Xiang Shihong’s declaration had indeed that ring of truth, leaving them unable to discern.

"Let’s show everyone," Xiang Shihong instructed a colleague.

The colleague was ready and immediately displayed their PowerPoint file, projecting it onto the screen.

"We approach from multiple dimensions, considering the future prospects of the product," the colleague began. "But our interview considers not only the product itself but also the person in charge’s plans for the product, their market acumen, and the individual’s capability level."

"Looking at these various aspects and making a comprehensive judgment, we ultimately chose the products to support. Among them, Little Pink Book’s product has the highest market acceptance and the broadest audience," the colleague showed the relevant page. "This is the data before forming an in-depth collaboration with Little Pink Book."

"During this period, Chengzhou’s promotion and support for Little Pink Book, as well as for all of you, were the same," the colleague continued. "But Little Pink Book’s new users, daily active users, and user retention statistics are far higher than those of other products."

"These are very direct data comparisons," the colleague said.

"In this time, we have been conducting various market research on your products. As you all should know, during this time, we have also had several discussions and evaluations with each person in charge to understand their future plans for their own products and their plans for updates and iterations."

"Based on everyone’s ideas, we can then draft more suitable collaborative plans with you," the colleague spoke while transitioning slides.

"Here we have recorded the content summaries of the discussions with each of you," the colleague mentioned. "You can also see the differences between yourselves."

Seeing this, the faces of the six individuals turned beet red.

Xiang Shihong’s approach was truly despicable!

It was like publicly hanging them out to dry.
