Chapter 283: Turning the Tables

few things, of course, and also planned to take the opportunity to test what kind of level Cheng Jibi was at.He didn't give me a definite answer, my invitation went unanswered, I don't even know if he...What does it mean All the directors were puzzled by Gu Chi's sudden move and words. What's the latest news

Gu Chi threw the phone on the table, it slid in front of a director. He curiously picked up the phone and looked at it, then his face changed drastically, "How could this be!"

Hearing his words and seeing the change in his expression, everyone became curious about what he had seen.

"What's going on" Gu Xiao asked with a displeased expression. He had finally seized an opportunity to bring down Gu Chi, and there absolutely couldn't be any mistakes at this crucial moment.

"Mr. Gu, look." The director stood up and walked to Gu Xiao's side, handing him his phone.

Upon seeing the contents on his phone, Gu Xiao's face also darkened.

Seeing this, everyone immediately took out their phones to search for news about the Gu Group. Their faces then darkened.

As soon as I typed in "Gu Group" in the search box, almost all the results displayed were news headlines such as "Food additives exceed standards in companies under Gu Group," "Consumers urge Gu Group to explain," and "Food safety is at risk, Gu Group faces strict scrutiny."

Everyone looked solemnly and took a closer look. It turned out that several food production subsidiaries under Gu Xiao's management were found to have additives significantly exceeding the standard.

Several influential media outlets published the news, causing the Gu Chi Group to be thrust into the center of public opinion and creating serious negative social impact.

Consumers were extremely disgusted by this and launched strong online attacks against the Gu Shi Group.

"Aren't they afraid of killing people Who is responsible for such enterprises and such regulatory oversight I think it should be sentenced according to the crime of intentional homicide."

Such companies must be severely punished, punished to the point of bankruptcy, and let's see if they dare to do such unconscionable things again!

"I don't know which department is responsible for food monitoring in the country, and what they do. Is the country's punishment mechanism sound Give us a safe and edible environment!!!"

"I sincerely hope that the Gu Group will have a reasonable and proper handling of this matter. I also hope that the victims of this incident can receive the compensation they deserve, and that those responsible will be punished accordingly."

……

Looking at the comments from netizens, everyone was a little panicked. You have to know, once consumers question food safety, it's very difficult to regain their trust.

If this matter is not resolved well, not only will the few branches managed by Gu Xiao face closure, but it might even implicate the reputation of the entire Gu Group.

"Can everyone see clearly" Gu Chi looked around and said. Hearing his words, everyone nodded in agreement, completely losing the momentum they had when questioning Gu Chi just now.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Gu Chi let out a cold snort in his heart. Just now, weren't they all bouncing around cheerfully Now, how come each and every one of them has become dumbstruck

Turning to Gu Xiao, Gu Chi opened his mouth and asked, "I wonder how Big Brother intends to explain this matter to everyone"

He glared fiercely at Gu Chi, leaving Gu Xiao speechless and unable to defend himself. The exposure was too sudden, catching him off guard.

Seeing everyone's grim expressions, Old Master Gu stood up and took a phone from one of the directors. After reading the news, he was instantly furious.

"Gu Xiao, what on earth is going on!" Grandfather Gu slammed his hand on the table and questioned Gu Xiao, "I always warn you a thousand times about food safety issues, you must pay attention and never be negligent. Did you take my words as wind"

"Grandpa, how could I forget what you said I just found out about this myself." Gu Xiao hurriedly stood up and explained to Old Master Gu, "It must be those people downstairs who kept it from me. I'll investigate right away."

"It's useless to investigate now, the matter is already in the news!" Old Master Gu was furious.

When being scolded in front of so many people, Gu Xiao felt a little embarrassed, but at this time he could only carefully respond, "Yes, Grandpa. I'll go find someone right away. Please rest assured, I will definitely handle this matter properly."

At this time, Gu Chi saw Gu Xiao's assistant pacing anxiously outside the conference room door, occasionally glancing inside.

With a cold snort, Gu Chi turned to him and said, "Come in if you have something to say."

The assistant also knew that going in at this time wasn't a good idea, but since Gu Chi called him in, he couldn't disobey, so he could only bite the bullet and go in.

I was about to whisper in Gu Xiao's ear, but this action seemed to have angered Old Master Gu, "What, is there anything I shouldn't hear"

"No, Chairman, it's...it's..." The little assistant stammered in fright, secretly glancing at Gu Xiao before gritting her teeth and saying, "It's Mr. Chen, the person in charge of Tianxiang Food Company, who wants to see General Manager Gu. He says there is important information to report."

"Hmph, what else could there be, it's all your doing!" Grandfather Gu pointed at Gu Xiao and rebuked him, "Let him come in!"

"Yes." At the order, the assistant hastily left the smoke-filled conference room.

In a short while, a bald, rotund middle-aged man walked in. Before he even arrived, his voice reached them first, "It's not good, Mr. Gu, you have to hurry..."

As soon as he entered the meeting room and saw what was going on inside, Mr. Chen immediately stopped talking.

Be good, how could there be so many directors here, even the chairman It couldn't be that they know their food company was investigated and are all waiting to confront me.

At the thought of this, Director Chen's forehead immediately broke out in a cold sweat. His position was probably not secure anymore.

"What on earth happened!" Grandpa Gu asked sharply.

When the chairman spoke, Chen, the general manager, trembled a little. "Chairman, it's people from the Food and Drug Administration. They said that Tianxiang Food Factory should temporarily halt operations and cooperate with the investigation. I was at a loss for what to do, so…"

Hearing Mr. Chen's words, Gu Xiao's face became even worse, and he glared at him fiercely.

It's truly a case of being ineffective in success but more than capable in failure. Why did it have to come at this crucial moment Isn't this like pouring gasoline on fire!

Chen's legs were already trembling from Gu Xiao's gaze, he was done for, over. This time, it seemed his good times wouldn't last long.

"It's really a headache!" Old Master Gu was probably the angriest he had been in ages. "You better go deal with it right away!"

"Yes, Grandfather." Gu Xiao said as his face darkened, and he was about to walk out of the conference room.

"Wait a minute." Seeing Gu Xiao about to leave, Gu Chi spoke up, "Big brother, didn't you just say that if you made a mistake, you wouldn't be qualified to manage the shares of Gu Chi Group anymore Then with what happened to the company your managing now, doesn't that mean you also have to give up your shares in the Gu氏 Group"

"Gu Zhi, you..." Gu Xiao angrily pointed at Gu Zhi, but couldn't find words to retort. If he insisted on accusing Gu Zhi of leaking client data now, he was afraid it would ultimately drag him down too.

Thinking back on what he had just said, Gu Xiao only felt his face burning hot, and at the same time, he hated Gu Chi even more in his heart.

He wouldn't believe that things could be this coincidental. He had just gathered the board of directors to attack Gu Chi, and now news unfavorable to him had exploded online. He was sure this had something to do with Gu Chi!

Though he was deeply unwilling, he could only let Gu Chi go for now.

"Alright!" Old Master Gu roared, "What time is it You're still arguing here when the most important thing right now is to figure out how to suppress those online news articles!"

"Understood, Grandpa. I'll go right now." Glaring resentfully at Gu Chi, Gu Xiao quickly left the conference room.e you ever seen anyone snag the lead role this smoothly We're going to be huge, incredibly successful!"Xiao Tang still wanted to celebrate. She felt that the most important thing was this matter."No,...
