“Get out!”
Jasper’s voice was amplified by manyfold through the speakers.
Mack, who was already flustered with a guilty conscience, shuddered. He was so scared that he fell back into his seat under everyone’s watchful eyes.
“Pfft…”
A number of people at the scene sniggered when they saw Mack’s flustered appearance.
Joseph’s expression changed unsightly.
The mid-level managers and those artists were looking at his own son, Mack, but the higher-ups of the company kept their eyes on Joseph.
Seeing that his son had been humiliated till this point, Joseph knew that he had to speak up no matter what.
He stood up, wanting to go up the stage to Jasper’s side to speak.
However, Jasper swept his gaze over and said indifferently, “Who is the one standing up?”
Secretary Lee, who had been watching everything quietly on one side, immediately walked over and said into Jasper’s ear, “This is Joseph White, the company’s vice president… and Mack’s father.”
“Then, there’s no need for you to come over. Just stand there and speak,” Jasper said coolly.
Joseph’s expression sank. There was a hint of resentment in the depths of his eyes, but he stood at his place and said to Jasper, “Mr. Laine, he’s my son, Mack White. He actually came to apply for a job today. The company has already considered letting him take the position of a contract supervisor.”
“Who’s in charge of the Human Resources Department?” Jasper asked coolly.
Everyone present was silent. No one answered, but everyone’s gaze was on Joseph.
Joseph’s expression was extremely unsightly.
He said that Mack came here to apply for a job, but it was considered a lie. He had already planned to place his son in the company a long time ago.
It was just that in the past few years, he had run amok in the company and had made many enemies. His son had also followed his arrogance and became a spoiled brat. Many higher-ups headed by Ryder were opposed to this matter and he was still working on it.
“Vice President White is in charge of the Human Resources Department.” It was still Secretary Lee who explained matters to Jasper.
“So you, who are in charge of the Human Resources Department, plan to place your son into the company?” Jasper asked coldly.
“Although he’s my son, I appoint people based on their merit—”
Before Joseph was done speaking, he was interrupted by Jasper. “Since you intend to utilize him, has there been any public recruitment conducted in accordance with the company’s rules and regulations? Is there documentation of the recruitment process?”
“…”
Joseph was speechless this time.
The formal personnel appointments in modern companies had a set of very formal procedures and processes. If the company had gone through with it, it would definitely leave evidence. However, Joseph only relied on being in charge of the Human Resources Department. How could he have gone through those procedures and processes?
Once such procedures were gone through, how could an idiot like Mack be selected?
“It seems that there isn’t any,” Jasper said coolly.
“Gladness Entertainment Movies used to be Mr. Lane’s, now it’s mine. But I don’t know when it has ever been Mr. White’s?”
Jasper’s words caused the hundreds of people present to tense their bodies.
When new officials took office, bold changes might be made on assuming office. The new boss of the entire company would inevitably alter the management.
It was just that nobody expected Jasper’s method to be so decisive and assertive.
He targeted the eldest senior, Joseph, as soon as he took over the company.
On one side, Michael looked at everything with a faint smile.
Everything about Gladness had nothing to do with him now. Therefore, from the perspective of a bystander, Michael could increasingly feel the depths and wisdom of Jasper’s actions.
Before this, Secretary Lee had told him everything that had happened downstairs.
Hence, Michael knew that Jasper seemed to want to make Mack eat a humble pie.
However, how could the truth be that simple?
Mack was but a minor character, not worthy of making a big fuss over. His aim was still Joseph, or in other words, to eradicate the higher-ups of Gladness Entertainment Movies.
