Chapter 1236
Felicity pursed her lips and said, [I’ll send you the location when we arrive.]
Before Keegan could reply, he heard Chandler say, “Keegan, why are you on your phone when you called for this meeting?”
Keegan paused and glanced at Aldor, who immediately turned on the projector and shared Jackson’s phone screen. Suddenly, a live video of a woman swaying her hips provocatively appeared on the big screen. This caused a commotion among the people present in the conference room. Meanwhile, Jackson remained oblivious and was still engrossed in sending virtual gifts to the live streamer.
“I was just replying to a text, Uncle Chandler. I think you should pay more attention to your son. Do you think it’s appropriate for him to look at girls online and send them virtual gifts when we’re in a meeting?” asked Keegan while he flipped open a document.
Only then did Jackson notice that his phone was being projected on the screen and quickly turned it off. However, Chandler’s face had already turned dark. He gave his son an exasperated glare before he sternly said,” Continue with the report!”
Jackson stared at Keegan, looking rather displeased.
Keegan had organized today’s meeting with the purpose of reorganizing the company’s structure and reclaiming some power from certain shareholders. He wanted to do this based on everyone’s capabilities and efforts in the establishment.
This style of management would significantly reduce the income of some high-ranking individuals who were merely occupying positions without much contribution. Naturally, a number of people did not agree with the approach.
When it came down to the voting, half of the meeting attendees were in favor of the motion, but the other half were against it. Chandler was satisfied with the results. “This is not child’s play, Keegan. We’re talking about business around here. Stop being so idealistic,” he said.
Keegan leered at his uncle, and he seemed unsurprised by the votes.
“Since so many people are against the idea, let’s put it aside for now. While we’re here, let’s review the financials of the various projects and industries under our company. The economy has been tough these past two years. We need to shut down projects that have been continuously losing us money. We must cut expenses if we can’t make revenue, people.”
As soon as Keegan said that, some of the faces in the room turned sour. Vinci Rivera was involved in dozens of projects, but the truly profitable ones were those in Keegan’s control. When Quentin was still around, the most lucrative business under Vinci Rivera was real estate. However, due to the economic situation in recent years, they were not making much income.
