“Are you still hiring?”
Adele was eager to try her luck
Jasper laughed and said, “I’m afraid I can’t afford to hire a rich lady like you.”
“Oh, you don’t understand. I’m fine with being a consultant,” Adele said excitedly.
“A consultant? I guess that’s possible.”
Jasper rubbed his chin and said meaningfully, “Though I have been looking for a better secretary, are you interested?”
“Okay, do you dare to hire me as your secretary?”
Adele covered her mouth and smiled.
“If you dare to try, why wouldn’t I dare to hire you?”
“If you dare to hire me, why won’t I dare to try?”
The two seemed to be in a fight.
At that moment, Jasper, who had just gotten the orange juice, was the first to concede.
“That’s enough. You’re the dignified Miss Brown so why are you messing around in my company? My humble company can’t stand you causing a commotion.”
Adele replied unhappily, “Who said that I’m here to mess around? My family’s situation is quite special. They’re never taken the business part seriously, but I like it, and yet no one taught me how to run a company. I think your system is what I have been looking for.”
“Many foreign corporate cultures can be used for reference. I also combined many foreign experiences into designing this framework.”
What Jasper said was not a lie.
His model was completely based on the combination of management methods of domestic Internet companies in later generations and foreign corporate culture concepts derived from this era. It was not groundless. Adele leaned over slightly. She stared at Jasper and pointed to his nose. Then, she said, “Do you think I can go to work in a foreign company with my identity?”
Jasper froze for a moment and smiled bitterly. “It’s indeed impossible… But running a company is not just about management and corporate culture. More importantly, if a company is alive, there must be a business. You…”
Adele smiled and looked at Jasper, waiting for him to finish.
Jasper could not continue anymore. He shook his head and reluctantly admitted, “Well, as long as you want to do it, there is really no industry that you can’t work in.”
Considering her family resources and how Adele managed to develop a flourishing intelligence business all by herself, no one in the country could compare with her. While serving in these two entities, Adele had shown business skills and talent that a lot of businessmen could not hope to develop within their entire lifetime.
“Do you really want to work here?” Jasper asked.
“Of course.”
Adele nodded vigorously.
“But I can’t work from nine to five.”
“Not a problem. You can be my special assistant cum my business consultant. In terms of annual salary, you are not short of money so it’s not appropriate to give you more than the average. We’ll just decide on 1 million tentatively. Your other benefits will be on par with the vice president of the company.”
“Deal!”
This meeting unexpectedly allowed Jasper to find someone to fill the position of his special assistant secretary which had been vacant for a very long time, and he had also allowed Adele to join JW.
This was something that neither of them expected before this meeting.
“Boss, this time, I helped you complete the Sunrise Land mission.”
After they settled the unexpected, Adele immediately began to settle her original purpose behind coming over.
