895 Reputation Crisis

Just as Chen Yihao was stunned like a petrified chicken.

Ye Chen walked out of the study.

"Did you receive the message? Should I continue to use the previous bank account?"

Sitting back down, Ye Chen asked with a chuckle.

"You, you transferred 30 million to me?" Chen Yihao said in surprise.

"Thirty million is not a lot, it should be enough for Qiwen to set up a photo studio!" Ye Chen said.

"You don't have to do this, really!" Chen Yihao said hurriedly.

"Just take it if I give it to you. Why are you talking nonsense?" Ye Chen released his aura all of a sudden.

Chen Yihao gritted his teeth again and again.

Then, in a changing mood, he said, "Even if I open a photo studio for Qiwen, I won't need 30 million!"

"I heard from Yinuo that you two are renting a house now, right? So go buy a house and buy a higher-end car. Putting aside other things, you are the vice president of Jianghu Hotpot after all, so don't be too shabby!" Ye Chen said.

At this moment, Chen Yihao was filled with mixed feelings.

If it were in the past, he would definitely not accept it.

But because of what his sister Chen Yinuo had just said to Lin Qiwen, he was suddenly filled with endless guilt and indebtedness.

This also forced him to waver in his heart.

"Okay, then consider this 30 million as a loan from me!" Chen Yihao said with a complicated expression.

Ye Chen shook his head and smiled slightly, without saying anything more.

"Qiwen, please keep an eye on this boy from now on. If he ever causes you any injustice, just tell me and I will definitely stand on your side!"

In the suddenly silent atmosphere, Chen Yinuo quickly changed the subject and spoke.

"Sister, I believe he won't let me suffer any injustice!" Lin Qiwen blinked her eyes which seemed to be dazzled by the wind and sand, and said with a gentle smile.

"That's great. I'm afraid this kid will do something stupid, so I really hope you can control him. This kid needs someone to take care of him!" Chen Yinuo said with a smile.

At the dinner table, the topic became lively again.

As they talked, they returned to the topic of Jianghu Hotpot.

Chen Yihao also took this opportunity to brief on the situation of Jianghu Hotpot.

Little did he know that just as Chen Yihao finished his briefing, the phone on the dining table suddenly rang.

After seeing the caller ID it was Liu Xi.

Chen Yihao quickly answered the call.

"Hello, Mr. Liu!

"-Hao, hurry back to the company for the meeting!" Liu Xi, the president of Jianghu Hotpot, said in a very urgent voice.

"What's going on?" Hearing Liu Xi's anxious voice, Chen Yihao immediately asked anxiously.

"A customer got food poisoning after dining at Jiang Hu Hotpot. This matter fermented too quickly. As soon as we found out about it, it became a hot topic over there! Okay, let's not talk about it anymore. Hurry back to the meeting!" Liu Xi said. "Okay, I'll go back right away!"

When Chen Yihao hung up the phone with an anxious look on his face.

There was no need for Ye Chen and Chen Yinuo to ask any questions.

Lin Qiwen asked nervously, "Yihao, what's wrong?"

He looked at his brother-in-law Ye Chen, and then at his sister Chen Yinuo.

Knowing that he could not hide it, Chen Yihao looked anxious.

I quickly repeated what Liu Xi said during the call, "A customer got food poisoning after dining at Jianghu Hotpot. Mr. Liu didn't go into detail about the specific situation, but he said that the incident had been posted and became a hot topic, so he asked me to return to the company for a meeting!

"What? There's something wrong with the ingredients of Jianghu Hotpot?" Chen Yinuo jumped up from the dining chair and exclaimed in surprise.

"I don't know the details yet! Mr. Liu is waiting, Qiwen and I will go back first!"

As he spoke, Chen Yihao no longer had the courage to look Ye Chen in the face.

If the customers' food poisoning cases actually had nothing to do with Jianghu Hotpot, that would be fine.

If the situation was really caused by the problem with Jianghu Hotpot, then neither he nor Liu Xi could explain to Ye Chen!

After saying this.

Chen Yihao immediately took Lin Qiwen out in a hurry.

Accompanied by the sound of the door closing.

Chen Yinuo said anxiously, "Old Ye, Jianghu Hotpot has only been open for a few days, how could something go wrong?"

Shake your head.

Ye Chen did not show any drastic emotional fluctuations.

"What is coming has come!"

"What do you mean?" Chen Yinuo asked.

"Jiang Hu Hotpot has touched too many people's hearts! Not only has it dealt a heavy blow to the capital interests behind Haidilao, it has also put the survival of many mid- to high-end hotpot brands into an increasingly difficult crisis!" Ye Chen said.

"Do you mean that someone is behind this Jianghu Hotpot?" Chen Yinuo said.

Ye Chen shook his head again, "Not sure, I can only say that there is this possibility! From a logical point of view, Jianghu Hotpot has just opened, and the company's senior management headed by Liu Xi will definitely not be careless. After all, now is a critical period for building word-of-mouth. If there is a problem during this critical period, the price that Jianghu Hotpot will have to pay will definitely be very heavy, so I don't believe that Liu Xi doesn't even understand this truth. In addition, Liu Xi attaches more importance to Jianghu Hotpot than anyone else, which also means that he will attach great importance to preventing himself from damaging his reputation!'

After a pause, Ye Chen continued, "Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that it is a problem with Jianghu Hotpot itself!"

"If it's really a problem with Jianghu Hotpot itself, then..." Chen Yinuo frowned.

"Then there's nothing much to say, but I'm more inclined to another possibility. As long as the reputation of Jianghu Hotpot collapses, there will be a large number of beneficiaries! But there's no rush to think about this issue right now. Didn't Yihao say that this matter has become a hot topic? Let's go online and find out more about the situation first!" Ye Chen said.

That's all.

I immediately took out my phone and opened Weibo.

On the trending search list.

A related topic has suddenly appeared!

#Jiang Hu Hotpot Food Poisoning#

In such a short time, there was no time even for Jianghu Hotpot to react.

The topic was listed on the hot search list.

Obviously, it is hard to say whether there is any trick behind the food poisoning, but as it is a hot topic...the power of capital is definitely at work!

The expressionless face entered the hot search list.

Ye Chen quickly browsed through the relevant videos and reports.

The store where the incident occurred was not in Jiangzhou.

But it is the Jinling store far away in Jiangsu and Zhejiang!

However.

Amid the heated discussions on those events that were like a tide.

However, there are many so-called self-exposure experiences of customers from other cities' stores!

In a short period of time, all kinds of "explosive information" have already directed the public opinion to the Jianghu Hotpot brand!

In contrast.

Extreme public opinion against Jianghu Hotpot has also swept across the country!

In addition, various relevant information about Liu Xi, Yu Shoucheng and Chen Yihao was disclosed.

Public opinion even rose to the level of Ye Chen, the hands-off boss!
