Yu Lang’s expression remained indifferent as he explained, “The company’s public relations methods are already quite mature. In the face of such a public opinion crisis, there are usually two solutions. On the one hand, we can respond directly and clarify and explain in time. But the public is more willing to believe the truth they see and more willing to believe their own speculations. Actually, no matter how we explain, they will think that we are an unscrupulous company that abuses resources to control public opinion.”
Yu Heng added timely, “The other method is to not respond directly to the public’s doubts at all. Instead, you throw out a topic that will be more discussed and attract the public’s attention. Nowadays, people have a short attention span. As long as they don’t pay attention to the previous problems, won’t the crisis of public opinion be easily resolved?”
Uneasiness rose in Yu Wan’s heart again. “But Eldest Brother previously said that he wanted to use me as a breakthrough to resolve this crisis of public opinion.”
Yu Lang nodded. “The second method is only a temporary diversion. It’s not a real solution to the crisis of public opinion. If we really want to salvage our company’s public image, we naturally have to find a breakthrough from you.”
Yu Wan relaxed a little. “As long as I can help Brother and the company, I’ll be satisfied.”
Yu Lang said, “So you don’t have to rush to the office to help. After all, you’re still in university and it’s not a holiday yet. Your studies are more important. There’s no need to waste time in the office.”
Yu Wan subconsciously clenched her fists. Her lips forced into a smile, and her expression was extremely stiff.
“Thank you for your concern, but I want to get some training sooner. That way, I can start working in the company faster after graduating and can help you earlier. Also, my studies aren’t heavy now, so I have a lot of free time after class. Instead of wasting time, I might as well come to the company early to intern.”
Yu Wan’s eagerness made Yu Lang and Yu Heng think that her subsequent actions were related to the Yu family’s company.
Yu Lang pretended not to notice Yu Wan’s anxious attitude and said indifferently, “I originally wanted you to participate in the recording of the variety show with Yu Jue and Yu Yao. Compared to using the company’s official channels, variety shows can silently display the cohesion of our entire family. It’s more effective in breaking the public’s negative impression of the Yu family…”
Yu Wan frowned secretly, her face revealing a thoughtful expression. Obviously, she was weighing the pros and cons.
Yu Lang continued, “But all of this is up to you. Since you want to come to the office early to intern, I won’t reject your request, but…”
Before Yu Lang could finish speaking, Yu Wan seemed to have made up her mind and quickly said, “Wait, Eldest Brother. Compared to working as an intern at the company, I want to spend more time with Third Brother and Sister Yu Yao.”
Yu Lang and Yu Heng both stared at Yu Wan. There was even a hint of a mocking smile on Yu Heng’s face. Yu Wan pretended not to notice Yu Heng’s ironic expression and braced herself to continue explaining.
“The reason why I did that livestream was because Third Brother and Sister Yu Yao had a misunderstanding of me. In order to explain to the public why Third Brother and Sister Yaoyao had such a bad attitude towards me, I had no choice but to expose my family’s matters and cause widespread discussion amongst the public. In the end, it created this crisis of public opinion. If we can resolve the misunderstanding between us in front of everyone on a variety show, wouldn’t that be even more convincing?”
In order to completely lower Yu Wan’s guard, Yu Lang and Yu Heng would naturally agree to her request. Yu Wan got the results she wanted and left the company with suppressed excitement.
Yu Heng stared at Yu Wan’s back until she walked into the elevator. Only then did he look at Yu Lang in confusion.
“During the first half of the conversation, I thought that Yu Wan’s goal was to enter the company and obtain some trade secrets or do something harmful to the company. However, in the end, she changed her mind without hesitation and agreed to participate in the variety show with Yu Jue and Yaoyao. I’m a little confused about her goal.”
Yu Lang chuckled and said, “Yu Wan has never displayed any talent in management since she was young. Even if she comes to the company, she won’t be able to understand any trade secrets for a while, let alone interfere in the company’s matters.”
His gaze gradually turned cold. “I just thought of that too. She doesn’t seem to be trying to hinder the company’s development. Instead, she seems to be trying to get close to us. She wants to get something from us.”
Yu Heng’s expression gradually became solemn. “It’s fine if it’s aimed at the company, but if it’s aimed at our family, we have to be careful.”
“That’s right.. If we aren’t careful, we might one day encounter an accident like those families that were silently ruined. Moreover, this accident was jointly created by our adopted daughter and an outsider…”
