Silence fell in the room. No one echoed or opposed that man's words.
When things got tense, no one wanted to stand up for something unimportant for them.
Sweat began to form on the forehead of that employee. He regretted being the first one to speak. He knew he was irrational to do so, but he was so excited today that he had forgotten that he should keep silent in such an occasion.
Jacob looked around, but no one responded to him. These people were no longer aggressive as they had been when they first met. Instead, they were silent now.
Disappointed, that man opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but finally, he said nothing. Finally, a look of regret appeared in his eyes. The whole process did not take long, but he already felt as if a century had passed in the dead silence.
He was a little stunned when he found that Jacob was also staring at him. From Jacob's eyes, he saw approval, which made him more confused.
When Jacob first came to the company, that man had a bad impression of Jacob. He thought that Jacob was just an infamous CEO in the Shi Group. But no one doubted Jacob's capacity. One's character and ability should be judged separated.
At that time, everyone resisted Jacob's existence in the company. Even if the company had fallen into a crisis, no one pinned their hopes on Jacob.
At that time, Jacob could not even be sure of solving his own problems. Could they count on someone who had already got into troubles to bring the company back to life?
But Jacob did it. And he did it quite easily. No one knew why a well-known company would sign a contract with this company, which was on the verge of bankruptcy and seemingly in the unrelated field.
But Jacob just made it. The silence of countless people brought the current situation. Because of Jacob's ability and success, everyone finally stopped questioning him.
"I know you guys will be more or less worried, including me. I cannot say that I have one hundred percent confidence about it, but even if there are eighty percent, sixty percent, or even less twenty percent chances of success, we have to stick to it. "
Jacob said in a low voice, but he said in an unquestionable tone.
