Chapter 343 The Wan Family Suffers Heavy Losses

Meanwhile, Wanjia Processing Plant was in a state of chaos, with its public relations team trying every possible way to quell the overwhelming public opinion.

They held an emergency press conference, with company executives personally endorsing the product and confidently declaring that there were absolutely no problems with its quality and that the so-called rumors were malicious fabrications by competitors.

However, the public was already influenced by preconceived negative information and was skeptical of Wan Jia's statement, so the public's attention did not decrease in the slightest.

Of course, there is another reason. Compared to Wanjia, which has always been in the shadows, people are more likely to trust Yitian Group, which has always been in the public eye and has cooperation with the government.

Therefore, when Future Tech accused Wanjia processing plants of having problems, everyone believed that the problem lay with the processing plants, especially since the parts themselves were defective.

The public relations crisis at Wanjia Processing Plant is getting worse. Despite the efforts of the senior management to defend themselves at the press conference, the public’s doubts are like a surging tide, one wave after another.

When Future Tech Company came forward to accuse Wan Jia Processing Plant, public opinion exploded.

Social media is filled with condemnation of Wanjia Processing Plant, with all sorts of speculations and accusations flooding in. Netizens have turned into "detectives," digging up clues about Wanjia Processing Plant's previous illegal use of substitute parts in order to meet deadlines, and then spreading them widely online, making Wanjia Processing Plant's image increasingly tarnished.

In the realm of business cooperation, Wanjia is in dire straits.

Upon hearing the news, those potential partners immediately abandoned their plans to cooperate and distanced themselves from Wan Jia as if avoiding a plague.

Existing partners have also reassessed the risks of cooperation, and most have suspended project progress.

Several companies even sent letters directly demanding early termination of contracts and compensation, fearing that they would be affected by the "time bomb" of Wanjia Processing Plant and suffer losses.

As rumors about product quality issues intensified, netizens uncovered most of the companies under Wanjia's umbrella.

Under the guidance of certain individuals, apart from the processing plant, all of Wan Jia's businesses were implicated.

Wanjia's chain retail stores were hit hardest, with a sharp drop in customer traffic. The once bustling stores are now deserted.

Customers lingered at the store entrance, but few were willing to step inside to buy anything. Even when a few regular customers did enter, they would only glance around briefly before leaving with doubts.

With nothing to do all day, the shop assistants could only wipe the shelves repeatedly and sigh at the empty store space. Sales plummeted, and many shops even lost money and faced the crisis of closing down.

Wanjia's online e-commerce platform also suffered a severe blow, with a flood of negative product reviews and a return rate soaring to unprecedented levels.

Once meticulously crafted best-selling products have now plummeted in search rankings and have been completely "relegated to the sidelines" by consumers.

In an effort to salvage the situation, the operations team continuously increased promotional efforts, launching various discount and spending reduction activities.

However, the results were minimal, and consumers seemed to have completely lost faith in the Wanjia brand, turning instead to competitors.

At this time, with Song Qianyi's help, the Yue family gradually came into the public eye and became the biggest "successor" of the Wan family.

Wanjia's ambitious new project was also forced to be shelved.

With a large amount of funds diverted to deal with the public relations crisis, the morale of researchers was low, and many key personnel began to seek other opportunities.

Without sufficient funding and talent support, technologies and products in critical research and development stages can only stagnate.

The new intelligent robots from futuristic technology had already dealt a heavy blow to Wanjia Technology.

Now, Wanjia's advantages accumulated over many years in the field of technological innovation are gradually being lost, and its future development prospects are becoming increasingly bleak.
