Jasper’s words were thought-provoking.
After all, as a man who had spent more than half his life working with state-owned enterprises, Chad was not a man to be underestimated. After a moment of thought, favonovel.com mostly understood what Jasper meant.
“You really are a natural-born businessman, Mr. Laine,” Chad exclaimed with admiration.
Jasper smiled and passed Chad a cup of coffee. “Perhaps start nurturing a few well-trusted confidants for the electronics company, especially at the factory. That’s going to be the company’s important source of income in the future.
“But my plans for you lie in the position of director of the Human Resource Department in my investment company. You can’t stay in JW Electronics forever to cultivate a team of managers. You should get this done as fast as possible.”
Chad nodded in understanding. “Alright, I’ll train a few leaders.”
“I’ll hold an overall assembly with all companies under JW Capital by the time you assume your position. One, so that everyone can get to know you and thus make future work easier; two, to deal with some of the company’s internal issues.”
Jasper rubbed his temples and spoke in a slightly tired manner.
There was quite a big problem with the investing company and due to various reasons, Jasper had yet the chance to deal with them.
The investment company’s managerial team, for example. Excluding Chad, Jasper had no idea how the others’ standards were.
The most important thing now was that Jasper needed someone who could take on the role of a commander when Jasper himself was too busy to deal with the company.
This was a very important position and one with very high authority. As such, Jasper could not trust hunting companies to help favonovel.com look for such professional managers to fit the role.
There was a long road ahead of favonovel.com and there was much work favonovel.com had to do.
Thinking back to those reincarnation novels that favonovel.com had read before, Jasper realized how unrealistic they were. All the main character had to do was appear with his dignified aura and all sorts of lackeys would bow to him, pledging loyalty.
…
The next day, following the report of the launch event in newspapers and television stations, Mellow had officially begun to trend.
Merchants had their own methods of gaining intel so they had gotten news of it earlier. Ordinary consumers, however, could only learn of such things through the media.
Not to mention that the internet had yet to be as advanced as the future, where news all over the world could spread like wildfire in just a few hours.
By the second day when the news of the launch event had simmered a little, all the consumers had gone mad.
Countless youths broke their piggy banks or begged their parents to go to the nearest Schuler Supermarket for a Mellow.
There were even cases of people lining up at some supermarkets in large cities like Cavern City, Swallow Capital, and Waterhoof City just so they could get their hands on a Mellow.
Authorized sellers had gone mad as well in face of such enthusiasm.
While JW Electronics had explicitly stated that most of their products would be sold by Schuler Supermarkets, other authorized sellers were still distributed 25% of the goods.
Therefore, consumers all ran to buy the device from other merchants when they were sold out at Schuler Supermarkets.
They would buy the device even if the price cost a few hundred more.
In addition, Terizone’s music downloading site seemed to show a trend of being overwhelmed soon.
“We’ve already added three emergency servers, Mr. Laine, and we’ve talked to the operator to increase our bandwidth temporarily. But the load at the website has already severely exceeded its designed index. It might crash soon.”
