The hiring of Malcolm was an important turn of events for Jasper and JW Company.
In his future autobiography, this professional manager who had worked 25 years under JW Company until his retirement at the age of 70 described his meeting with Jasper as an important meeting that changed his life.
It was only second to marrying his wife, Mrs. Kelly.
To add to the joy, Jasper received good news from Jack the following day as well.
After a few rounds of negotiation, Midas Company had finally agreed to package sell the gaming project, United Legends.
It was not cheap, costing 40 million US dollars.
It cost Jasper all the profits he made from Mellow MP3 players as of late.
Even then, Jack had gone through a lot to get the deal. First, he used his connections with Weresoft to find one of Midas Company’s shareholders. Then, he spent millions on that man just to get him to agree.
As far as Midas Company was concerned, this was an ordinary game with an average beta testing score from Coreana, so the deal had them profiting greatly from Somerland.
Yet to Jasper, excluding the MP3 business, United Legends would be another source of cash flow. The game would spark the beginning of the online gaming market in Somerland that would eventually reach the value of 100 billion.
Only time would tell who truly profited.
Jack was indeed an exceptional professional manager. He remembered Jasper’s instructions clearly.
After buying the United Legends project, he had then taken advantage of the extreme rift between the game’s developers and the company due to conflicting reasons about whether to sell the game or not. Doing so, he managed to bring in the better half of the project’s technicians to Sena.
As a result, Sena now had the most top-notch and highly sought-after game developers and technicians in the country. This had saved them a lot of time and cost.
After Jack’s return, Chad had also successfully managed to cultivate the senior executives who would make up the backbone of the electronics company. He had now arrived to work in the investing company.
Since everyone was around the area, Jasper took the opportunity to send an official notice under JW Capital’s name. He called over all persons in charge of the subsidiaries under JW Capital to rush over for a meeting in Nauritus City.
Despite having an abundance of funds, the investment company was still based in the same villa. The office space was a little tight and the meeting room was also just the renovated living room on the second floor.
Despite how pitiful a sight it was, people who knew the power of this company knew better than to look down on JW Capital just because of this.
In the room were Hudson Moore from Terizone Inc, Jack Tanner from Sena, Lance Baldwin who Jasper had approved as JW Electronics’ new general manager, Sean Tucker from JW Real Estates, Ryder Lawrence who was the president of Advent Entertainment Group, and Ted Swanson who was the president of Easy Media.
Then there was also the parent company, JW Capital’s core decision-makers. Malcolm Malibu, the COO, and the director of the Human Resources Department, Chad Wright.
The group of people filled the meeting room. Every single one of them held formidable positions in their respective businesses.
This was his team.
Including Jasper and Wendy, who was hosting the meeting, there were ten in attendance.
“This is the first important meeting JW Capital is having with the persons in charge of its subsidiaries. There should be ten in attendance and ten have arrived. Would JW Capital’s CEO, Jasper Laine, please begin?”
Wendy spoke rigidly and then took her seat.
Jasper took in the shining pairs of eyes directed at himself and smiled. “While this is technically a meeting, it’s essentially just a space for us to discuss the problems the companies have faced and their solutions. There’s no need to be too tense. This is just a conversation between friends.”
