Chapter 841 Evidence
The morning sun shone through the glass curtain wall of the office building, casting mottled light and shadows on Lin Yue's workstation. She checked the project plan in her hand for the umpteenth time, her fingertips gently stroking the edge of the paper, and her fingertips were slightly hurt by the sharp cuts. This was the first time she had been independently responsible for a tens-million-level advertising plan in the three years since she joined Xingyao Media, and it was also the most critical bargaining chip in the competition for the position of creative director. The elevator door opened and closed, and colleagues arrived one after another. The voice of Chen Yu, director of the planning department, came in the hum of the coffee machine: "Xiao Lin, the meeting room at 10 o'clock, the party A representative arrived early." Lin Yue looked up suddenly and saw half of the red invitation card sticking out of Chen Yu's suit pocket - it was the wedding invitation for him and Su Man, deputy manager of the marketing department, three days later. This discovery made her heart tremble, and she suddenly realized that this project report was not only about promotion, but also might become the key to shaking the power structure of the entire department. When the projection screen in the conference room lit up, Lin Yue's palms were already full of cold sweat. The representative of Party A was a middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses. The moment his eyes rested on her, she remembered the rumors in the tea room last week - this Mr. Zhang had close interests with Chen Yu in private. Sure enough, when she talked about the advertising strategy, Mr. Zhang suddenly interrupted: "Young people have bold ideas, but we need more mature solutions. I heard that Manager Su has done similar cases?" Su Man stood up elegantly on her stilettos, and the computer screen switched to a plan that was very similar to Lin Yue's. Lin Yue stared at those familiar creative points, and the unusual sound of the printer jamming when she was working overtime last night rang in her ears. She clenched the armrests of the chair, her nails digging deep into her palms: someone secretly copied her plan! After the meeting, Chen Yu called Lin Yue into the office. Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, the city skyline was dyed dark red by the twilight. "Xiao Lin, this opportunity is rare, but you can see that Party A prefers Su Man's plan." He took off his wedding ring and tapped it on the table. "But as long as you cooperate, the position of creative director is still yours." Lin Yue looked at the ring mark on his ring finger and suddenly realized: the so-called competition was just a carefully designed game. The office was terribly quiet late at night, with only the sound of Lin Yue's keyboard tapping echoing in the corridor. She was cracking the encrypted file on Su Man's computer, and the blue light of the screen made her face pale. Suddenly, footsteps came from behind. Lin Yue quickly closed her notebook and looked up to see the intern Xiaoyu standing at the door with a document in her arms. "Sister Yue, I'm here to hand in tomorrow's meeting minutes." Xiaoyu's voice was trembling imperceptibly, and Lin Yue noticed that her cuffs were stained with printer toner. The truth gradually surfaced. It turned out that Xiaoyu was Su Man's spy. Not only did she copy the plan, but she also tampered with some of the data. Lin Yue held her phone tightly, which contained the evidence photos she had just taken. But before she could take any action, the next day, an anonymous report letter suddenly broke out on the company's intranet, saying that she had plagiarized Su Man's proposal. The screenshot attached happened to be the draft version of her revised proposal. "Lin Yue, explain it to me." The voice of the HR director was particularly harsh in the conference room. Su Man sat in the corner, her fingers painted with red nail polish elegantly turning the pen. Lin Yue took a deep breath and was about to produce evidence, but she found that all the photos in her mobile phone had been deleted, and the cloud backup also showed that it had expired. She glanced at the crowd and saw a fleeting sneer on Chen Yu's face. It rained heavily on the day she was suspended. Lin Yue stood downstairs of the company, watching the rain winding into twisted lines on the glass door. Someone patted her on the shoulder. It was Uncle Zhou, an old employee in the marketing department. "Girl, I have a recording here." He lowered his voice, "Evidence of Chen Yu and Mr. Zhang's private transaction, and the transfer record of Su Man's bribery of Xiaoyu." Lin Yue's hand holding the USB flash drive trembled slightly. When she got home, she listened to the recording repeatedly, and Chen Yu's voice was clearly audible in it: "As long as Su Man is promoted this time, we will split the project rebate 50-50..." She realized that this promotion dispute had long gone beyond the scope of workplace competition and became a fig leaf for the transfer of interests. However, just as she was about to report to the board of directors, Uncle Zhou was suddenly transferred to a remote branch. Lin Yue rushed to Uncle Zhou's house and found that his residence was in a mess and his computer hard drive was missing. Uncle Zhou told her with red eyes: "Don't check anymore, they are too powerful." But Lin Yue did not back down. She began to secretly collect more evidence and even contacted media friends she had worked with before. Just one day before Chen Yu and Su Man's wedding, Xingyao Media's stock price suddenly plummeted. Many videos about internal corruption in the company were exposed on the Internet, among which the recording of Chen Yu's secret conversation with General Manager Zhang caused an uproar. Lin Yue stood outside the crowd and watched the police car roaring in and took away the panicked Chen Yu and Su Man. After the dust settled, Lin Yue became the creative director as she wished. But she installed the most advanced information security system in the office and personally checked the computer usage records of employees every week. Rumors in the tea room continued, but she knew that the workplace was never a black-and-white battlefield. Only by staying sober could one stick to one's heart in the maze of power and interests. On the day of the new employee induction training, Lin Yue looked at the young faces in the audience and thought of herself three years ago. She deliberately kept Xiaoyu. The girl who had betrayed her now had clear eyes: "Sister Yue, I want to start over." Lin Yue nodded and wrote a line on the whiteboard: "There are no eternal enemies in the workplace, only eternal interests and bottom lines." Outside the window, the neon lights of the city gradually lit up, illuminating countless professionals like Lin Yue in the office building. They grew up in competition and cooperation, played between conspiracy and conspiracy, and wrote their own workplace legends. And Lin Yue always remembered that on that rainy afternoon, when she chose to stick to the truth, she had won something more precious than her position-the dignity and faith of people in the workplace. With the rectification of Xingyao Media, the company ushered in a new management team. Lin Yue discovered that the once impregnable power system was quietly disintegrating. She began to promote transparent cooperation across departments, established anonymous reporting channels, and set up an employee creative incubation fund. These initiatives were resisted by some old employees who were accustomed to the mode of black-box operation and felt that Lin Yue had broken the "rules." But Lin Yue did not compromise. She led the team to work day and night, using successful projects to prove the advantages of the new system. In a large-scale brand cooperation, she boldly used several young employees and let them lead the planning. At first, these newcomers made a lot of mistakes due to their lack of experience, but under Lin Yue's patient guidance, they finally handed in a stunning work and won a huge order for the company.
