"Lin Xiao, although online sales have reduced costs, there are big problems with logistics and distribution. Many customers have complained about delayed delivery and damaged goods." Su Yao said with a worried look on her face.
Lin Xiao frowned: "Contact the logistics company immediately and ask them to come up with a solution."
The children were doing their homework obediently and did not dare to disturb their parents.
However, logistics companies say that business has surged recently and there is nothing they can do.
"Lin Xiao, what should we do? Customer satisfaction has plummeted, which has a great impact on our brand image." Su Yao said anxiously.
Lin Xiao pondered for a moment: "No, we can't rely entirely on the logistics company. We have to set up a logistics team ourselves."
"But setting up a logistics team requires a lot of money and time. Can we do it with our current situation?" Su Yao said worriedly.
Lin Xiao gritted his teeth and said, "There is no other way. We can only give it a try."
They began to raise funds and recruit logistics personnel.
"Lin Xiao, we still don't have enough funds, and recruitment is not going well. Many experienced people are unwilling to join our fledgling team." Su Yao said.
Lin Xiao felt unprecedented pressure: "Think of another way to transfer some people from within the company to help, and at the same time increase the salary to attract talents."
Just when they were busy and overwhelmed, bad news came from the company's finance department.
"Mr. Lin, due to a series of previous problems, the company's capital chain is about to break." said the financial manager.
Lin Xiao slammed the table angrily: "Try every possible way to get through this."
The children looked at their tired parents and said distressedly: "Mom and Dad, don't be too tired."
Lin Xiao and Su Yao touched the children's heads with emotion: "My dears, mom and dad will work hard."
They decided to apply for a loan from the bank, but the bank rejected their application because the company was too risky.
"Lin Xiao, are you really at your wits' end now?" Su Yao said in despair.
Lin Xiao's eyes were firm: "No, it's not the last moment yet, we still have friends."
They began to ask their friends for help. Some of them said they could not help, while others extended a helping hand.
"Lin Xiao, we finally got some funds together, but it's still far from enough." Su Yao said.
Lin Xiao looked out the window and fell into deep thought.
Just then, a mysterious phone call came...
This mysterious phone call made Lin Xiao and Su Yao's hearts hang in suspense again.
"Hello?" Lin Xiao asked cautiously.
A strange voice came from the other end of the phone: "Lin Xiao, I know your company's current predicament. I can help you, but you have to agree to one condition of mine."
Lin Xiao frowned: "What conditions?"
"I want to be a major shareholder of your company and have decision-making power," the other party said.
Lin Xiao was silent for a moment: "This is impossible. The company is the result of many years of hard work by Su Yao and I. I can't easily hand over the decision-making power to others."
"Then you can just wait for the company to go bankrupt." The other party hung up the phone after saying that.
Su Yao asked anxiously: "Lin Xiao, what should we do?"
Lin Xiao took a deep breath: "Let's think of other ways. We can't compromise like this."
They tried various methods and even considered selling some non-core assets to raise funds.
"Lin Xiao, although this can temporarily solve the funding problem, it will weaken the company's strength." Su Yao said.
Lin Xiao said helplessly: "This is the only solution."
Just when they were about to implement the plan, the mysterious man called again.
"Lin Xiao, I'll give you one last chance. As long as you agree to my terms, I'll inject funds into you immediately."
Lin Xiao said angrily: "Don't dream about it. Even if I try my best, I won't let you succeed."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Xiao and Su Yao felt extremely tired and helpless.
The children ran over and hugged them: "Mom and Dad, don't be discouraged. We believe you can get through this."
Lin Xiao and Su Yao were deeply moved and cheered up again.
They decided to seek help from some of their long-standing clients.
"Lin Xiao, several customers have expressed their willingness to pay for the goods in advance to help us through this difficult time." Su Yao said excitedly.
A glimmer of hope flashed in Lin Xiao's eyes: "Great, this is really a timely help."
With these funds, the company's situation was temporarily alleviated.
"Lin Xiao, although we have solved the urgent problem, we cannot relax yet. We must get the company back on track as soon as possible." Su Yao said.
Lin Xiao nodded in agreement: "Yes, we must continue to work hard."
However, just as they were preparing to make a big move, new troubles emerged...
