?Chapter 1045:


    “We won’t get anywhere if we keep relying on price wars,” one of them said carefully. “The only way forward is to repair thepany’s image. Right now, our profits are no better than they were twenty years ago. We’re barely keeping ourselves afloat. If nothing changes, we’ll be looking at real losses soon.”


    Another elder leaned forward and voiced his agreement. “That’s exactly the issue. We need to reshape how the public views us. People are hearing too much bad news about the Cooper Group. Where is our PR department in all this? Do they even understand that our two-hundred-year survival has always depended on protecting our good name?”


    “Everyone knows what you said. But what’s the solution? If you’ve got a strategy,y it out for us. Or are you nning to dump the whole problem on the new general manager?” The remark came with a mocking tone, the speaker’s disdain for Kiley, who had just taken office, dripping from every word.


    In truth, however, those who had dared to challenge Kiley’s authority were no longer in the picture.


    That same board member who seemed bold enough to confront Kiley was, in fact, already aligned with her camp.


    Kiley had ced him there deliberately, using him as both a pawn to soothe tempers and bait to draw out any hidden opposition.


    Attention in the room shifted toward the outspoken figure, though just as quickly, every pair of eyes darted back to Kiley, waiting to see how she would respond.


    With deliberate calm, Kiley rested her smooth hand on the polished table and gave it a gentle tap.


    “All of you may have different thoughts about me, but that’s not the issue here. What matters is that your goals are tied to mine.” As she spoke, she rose from her seat, her posture towering over the executives, her confidence filling the room. “Since none of you seems capable of offering a solution to the Cooper Group’s current troubles, I’ll handle it. From this moment on, my directives will guide you, and my word will be the rule.” Kiley’s cold eyes drifted across the table, lingering on each face. “The first step is to restore the Cooper Group’s reputation. To achieve that, we will organize a grand charity g to demonstrate our dedication to social responsibility.”

    Shock rippled among the executives, their expressions betraying disbelief.

    “That’s right! Arge-scale charity event would drown out the negative reports. The public won’t dwell on gossip once they feel they’ve gained something from us!” one director quickly chimed in, relief in his tone. “Exactly, and the media thrives on stories like this. If it’s executed well, the Cooper Group could stand taller than before,” another executive added with enthusiasm.


    The board member who had challenged Kiley earlier frowned and muttered with clear irritation, “We already hold charity events every year, and we even control the leading charity association in Wront. Isn’t that more than enough?” The remarknded heavily, sending unease through the room like ripples across still water.


    All eyes turned back to Kiley, waiting for her response.


    Instead of showing irritation, she curved her lips into a faint smile. “The reason is simple. What we’ve done so far has fallen short. You’re all aware that I’ve long managed the overseas markets.” She let a pause settle before her tone sharpened with resolve. “That’s why I won’t limit our efforts to a local charity event in Wront. My vision isrger. I intend tounch a global charity g. Leaders and well-known figures from around the world will be invited, and together, we’ll provide food and clothing for those living in poverty.”
