Chapter 1037 Those Who Want to Leave Can Stay
The company was in turmoil, and Patrick instructed everyone to leave. At that moment, Jane received a phone call and hurriedly rushed over.
Michael was ready to leave. There was no longer any meaning in staying here.
Moreover, he had already achieved his goals and completed everything he wanted to do.
Continuing to stay now would only invite others’ judgmental eyes. From both a work and personal perspective, Michael had to make a choice.NôvelDrama.Org content.
Now, he stood in front of Jane, ready to bid her farewell.
“Why are you leaving now? If that’s the case, then my efforts to keep you here all this time would have been in vain.”
Michael smiled upon hearing Jane’s words. If it weren’t for Jane’s personality, he would have left long ago.
But now that even Patrick had appeared, what meaning would there be in staying? He had considered this for a long time.
“I better go back. If I stay here, I’m afraid I won’t be of much help to you. However, if I go back, I can still do something for some people.”
When Jane heard that Michael was not heeding her advice, she became anxious.
As the saying goes, “Listen to advice, eat well.” Moreover, she really needed his help now. If he left, it would be like losing her right-hand man.
“I truly hope you can help Patrick. If you don’t, I can’t trust the others.”
Michael had his own abilities, not only in business but also in other aspects. So, it would be best if he could assist Patrick. Jane wouldn’t trust the other people in Patrick’s company to support him, considering what had happened before.
After all, the past events were still fresh in her mind. How could she let those guys cooperate with Patrick again?
It was likely that their thoughts were still fixated on Harrison, or maybe their working style had already changed.
Moreover, the most important thing was that some people had already been removed by Harrison. They had long left Patrick’s company.
A small portion of those people were currently working in Jane’s company and could be directly transferred back to Patrick. However, it was impossible to recruit back those who had already left.
Therefore, there had to be someone capable enough to help Patrick solve the problems, and Michael was the best candidate at the moment.
“I’m afraid I won’t be able to handle this.”
Michael didn’t say much, simply uttering that sentence.
“You are more than capable, and you can build a career here. There’s no need to make other choices.”
“Now, if you still have concerns, I can directly sign a contract with you, offering you a salary so that you can work with peace of mind.”
Jane’s thoughts were simple. Whether Michael signed a contract with her company or with Patrick’s company, the important thing was to ensure he received a salary, allowing him to work with peace of mind.
If Jane could secure Michael, it would mean keeping a talented individual. Moreover, Jane had a decision in her heart as well.
“Is that appropriate? If that’s the case, I can consider it. I’ll give you a reply tomorrow.”
Jane nodded upon hearing Michael’s words and straightforwardly told him her plan.
“I’m planning to merge my company with Patrick’s. His company is currently facing troubles, but by merging the two, we should be able to overcome the crisis!”
“That’s why I said I can sign a contract with any company, because in the future, these two companies will become one!”
Michael was taken aback. This was something he hadn’t anticipated before.
If he had heard this news earlier, he would have been more cautious and might have had some thoughts in his mind.
That is, Jane had not hidden anything from him, which meant trust and the opportunity for him to make a choice.
If they hadn’t told him, he might have blindly signed the contract and ended up facing the merger of two companies, making it even more difficult for him.
But now, he had the chance to carefully consider and make a choice.
“I understand this matter. If it’s really about merging the two companies, I will consider it carefully and give you an answer tomorrow.”
Since Jane had brought up this matter, she naturally wouldn’t rush Michael and give him time.
The next day, after careful consideration, Michael chose to stay, which made Jane very happy.
“Now that you’ve decided to stay, I’ll leave the matter of merging the two companies to you. This way, I can feel more at ease.”
Michael nodded vigorously upon hearing these words.
“Your annual salary will be a base salary of 300, 000 dollars, plus performance bonuses. If you perform well, you should be able to reach 500, 000 dollars. It won’t be a problem. If you’re not satisfied, we can still negotiate.”
“Now, the company is facing some problems, so we can’t offer you the highest salary at the moment. But I believe that after this period, the company will definitely develop better.”
Michael knew that Jane was speaking the truth. In the entertainment industry, companies like this one could survive if they were well-operated in a year or two.
However, if the operation wasn’t good, numerous entertainment companies closed down every year. It not only involved connections but also management methods and a certain amount of luck.
If they could make one or two stars successful, the company could survive. But if the pillars of the company collapsed, the company could easily fall into a state of no return.
Although Patrick’s company didn’t encounter difficulties due to this situation, it didn’t mean that it couldn’t be saved now.
“I’ll take charge of this matter. I’ll handle the operations carefully and communicate with you if there are any difficulties.”
“I also hope to see the company on the right track, with good development. If not, it’s likely that I won’t stay.”
Michael spoke the truth, but there was one thing he didn’t say: if it weren’t for Jane, he wouldn’t have stayed either.
Although Patrick and Jane had come together now, he still wished Jane happiness.
It was like being torn, struggling to make a choice. In the process of choosing, sacrifices were inevitably made.
And now, Michael was making that sacrifice by deciding to stay.
