Chapter 968: Chapter 968: Forgive my presumption _1 Chapter 968: Chapter 968: Forgive my presumption _1 “Our cooperation will continue, but from our side, we need to replace Jacob Zahn,” said the CEO.
Seeing that Wallace Martin wanted to add something, the CEO took the initiative to say, “Moreover, Jacob Zahn has nothing to do with this matter.
We can act as if he has never negotiated this cooperation.”
Wallace Martin gave a satisfied smile: “Exactly my thoughts.”
The CEO nodded, saying, “That won’t be a problem.”
For him, cooperation with Majestic is of greater importance.
As for the gains and losses of a small employee like Jacob Zahn, they are not within the CEO’s considerations.
Even if the possibility of cooperating with Majestic was initially brought by Jacob Zahn, it wouldn’t make a difference.
“That’s excellent.” Wallace Martin nodded contentedly.
The CEO then said, “However, I have a question, and I hope Mr.
...
Martin can answer it.”
“Please ask.” Wallace Martin said.
“Jacob Zahn will definitely not be in charge of this matter again, I can assure you,” said the CEO.
“I just want to know, why was Jacob Zahn replaced?”
“It’s rather embarrassing to say that Jacob Zahn is an employee of our company, yet I’m unaware of the inappropriate things he has done.
I have to hear it from you.”
“However, after knowing, I will consider some of the future appointments for Jacob Zahn,” the CEO said.
“You said earlier that the CEO values the character of the partner very much.
So does this mean that Jacob Zahn has issues with his character…” the CEO inquired.
“This also has to do with some disgrace from our Majestic, but I might as well tell you,” Wallace Martin chuckled slightly embarrassed, “Jacob Zahn was able to get this contract because he accompanied our company’s Mr.
Houston, and their relationship…”
Wallace Martin laughed awkwardly, “Involves some intimate matters.”
“From Mr.
Houston’s side, it’s certain that our company will deal with it,” said Wallace Martin, “As for Jacob Zahn, it is not within our jurisdiction.
But our CEO despises people of low moral standards.”
“In order to secure cooperation, he even resorted to selling himself and disrupting other people’s homes, which our CEO finds reprehensible.
The crux of the matter is that among all these companies, our company was indeed the most suitable choice from the start.”
“Even without the presence of Jacob Zahn, we would have chosen your company for cooperation in the end.
This way, our cooperation is pure and unadulterated by any unpleasant matters,” said Wallace Martin.
“But because of Jacob Zahn’s nonsense, if people were to find out about it, your company would be accused of using disgraceful means to win the competition.
And our Majestic would also be accused of giving contracts to anyone willing to…hehe…
court favor from our employees.
What kind of joke would that make our Majestic?
We would be ridiculed and questioned about our company’s decision making and so on, creating many negative effects.”
The CEO also thought of these things when Wallace Martin mentioned them.
Cold sweat was about to break out instantly.
“Yes, yes, you’re absolutely right,” said the CEO, nodding his head in fear, “Thanks to CEO Zhekova noticing this early.
Otherwise, it would have been a joke on both our companies.”
“Exactly,” Wallace Martin agreed with a nod.
“So it is our CEO’s intention that the person in charge of our cooperation should be replaced on your side,” Wallace Martin said.
The CEO immediately replied, “Then I will take the responsibility personally.”
“…” Wallace Martin hurried to say, “That is not necessary.
If you take charge personally, once the rumor spreads, it will still invite suspicion.
If someone were to investigate…wouldn’t we be back at the same problem as before?”
“Let’s have someone from the Business Department take charge,” the CEO concluded in a flash.
Wallace Martin didn’t dare to be too straightforward, so he suggested, “How about Manager Thompson recommending someone she trusts from the business department?”
Fearing there would be another mishap, Wallace Martin added, “The key is having good skills and character.
For a collaboration of this scale, we can’t let anyone simply take advantage of the situation, can we?”
“My suggestion is to find someone who is well-regarded by leaders, someone who can be heavily relied upon in the future.
After all, our two companies may not only be cooperating once.
In the future, there will still be many opportunities for cooperation, so we must find a responsible and capable person to hold the fort.”
“Otherwise, finding someone randomly, and then they leave after reaping the benefits, we would have to change the person in charge of our cooperation.
This instability is not very good, right?” Wallace Martin suggested, causing the CEO to nod his head repeatedly.
Wallace Martin then continued: “Mr.
CEO, please forgive me for overstepping my bounds.
This is your company’s business, yet a lowly assistant like me has interfered too much.”
“No, no, not at all,” the CEO hurriedly waved his hand, obviously trying to flatter Wallace Martin.
When Wallace Martin is happy, he will speak highly of their company in front of CEO Zhekova.
The CEO had heard Wallace Martin say that there would be many opportunities for cooperation between the two companies in the future.
This cooperation is not the only one.
If they could truly keep the partnership going for the long haul, their firm would definitely hit the jackpot!
“You make a lot of sense,” the CEO said sincerely, “The matter came very suddenly.
If I were to mull it over, I’d need to think hard for a bit.”
“The moment you explained it, I had a sudden revelation.” He hastily added.
How could the CEO not think of this on his own?
If he couldn’t even think of this, how could he be the CEO of a large company?
If he had such limited abilities, even if he rose to his position through some means, he wouldn’t be able to hold his place for long.
Being a total newbie, it wouldn’t take long for someone to pull his strings.
But what the CEO said was not just to flatter Wallace Martin.
In the face of such a sudden onslaught of issues, the CEO was utterly shocked and indeed had no time to think about anything else for a while.
It was only after he calmed down that he could think of these matters.
But the CEO was still quite impressed with Wallace Martin.
It’s no wonder that he works by CEO Zhekova’s side.
His reaction was quick and he thought of a lot instantly.
Is it easy to be by CEO Zhekova’s side?
Not easy at all.
Otherwise, before Wallace Martin, why did CEO Zhekova change so many assistants?
They all couldn’t keep up with CEO Zhekova.
It was only when Wallace Martin arrived that things truly stabilized.
Working with CEO Zhekova, Wallace Martin has stayed for many years.
Wallace Martin thought to himself, having said this much, there shouldn’t be any errors now, right!
According to his investigation, Manager Thompson actually thinks highly of Peggy Lewis.
If Manager Thompson were to choose, the probability of her recommending Peggy Lewis would be high.
But the matter is not finalized yet, so Wallace Martin still couldn’t feel at ease.
Therefore, Wallace Martin still didn’t propose to leave yet.
Instead, he said to the CEO again, “Chief, if possible, can I meet Manager Thompson?”
