After all, Jessica was a first-tier star, with popularity and decent business ability. She could bring money to every company she worked for.
Hence, everyone was happy that such a female artist was willing to sign a contract with Century Entertainment.
Shawn was obviously satisfied with this effect.
After a while, he raised his hand slightly to interrupt the excited voices in the conference room.
"In addition, there is one more thing. The lady sitting next to me is called Julia. Most of you present here may not know her, but for those who have been working in the industry for more than 10 years, I think you must have heard of her name."
"Today, I bring her here because she will become our new PR manager and lead our PR department to a new level in the future to make great progress, and to make our company better and stronger!"
The conference room fell into dead silence after he finished his speech.
Everyone seemed to be caught unexpected, and it took several seconds before a few sparse applauses were heard.
Then, all eyes were turned to Natalia.
There were sympathy and regrets in those eyes, as if they had finally confirmed the widespread rumors in the company this morning.
There were people who didn't know about Julia's background. After inquiring their colleagues about it, their gaze became somewhat complicated when looking at Natalia.
After all, although Natalia's outstanding ability was obvious to all, considering Julia's qualifications, her ability wouldn't be inferior to hers.
Since Mr. Miller had already hired her, they couldn't say anything.
In the end, there were still one or two colleagues who would stand for Natalia. After seeing this, they stood up indignantly and uttered their objection.
"I disagree!"
"I don't agree either! As we all know, our PR manager is Natalia. She has been doing a good job. She lent a helping hand when the company was in the most critical time. She led the PR department all the way to this day. Isn't it too hasty for Mr. Miller to fire her?"
"Yes! Miss Natalia didn't do anything wrong. If Mr. Miller wants to replace her, you must give us a reason, right?"
"Although this senior Julia used to be a very good and famous PRers, she hadn't dealt with any cases for ten years, and I wonder if she's still capable now?"
"If she isn't, won't it be a waste of time?"
Like a stone being cast into the lake, their challenges instantly stirred up a thousand waves, causing the rest of the employees to stand up and back for her.
"Yeah, although Julia was prestigious, it has been ten years since her peak time."
"The popular performers in the entertainment industry have changed several times. Is it okay for her to continue to be a PRers now?"
With doubtful stares from the crowd, Shawn frowned slightly.
As he was about to speak, his sleeve was suddenly tugged by someone. Jessica gave him a hint.
Shawn pursed his lips, and then he saw Julia smiling slightly and stepping forward to address the public.
"It is just a misunderstanding!"
She gazed around the crowd and finally landed her eyes on Natalia.
"Mr. Miller did not invite me over this time to replace Miss Natalia. Miss Natalia had worked hard and had a stabilizing effect on Century. Why would Mr. Miller make such a unwise decision to disappoint you all?"
Hearing this, the crowd couldn't help wondering.
"Then what did Mr. Miller mean by his words?"
Julia smiled and calmly said.
"As we all know, Century Entertainment is no longer a small and insignificant company as it was two years ago. Today, apart from Annita International, we hardly have any competitors."
"In other words, we have no other enemy except Annita International. I think anyone knows how powerful Annita is. It takes more than sophisticated business skills and responsiveness to overpass a competitor like that. It requires a profound understanding of the industry and a wide range of connections."
"These two aspects happened to be what Miss Dawson lacked the most. After all, she had only worked in the position for two years. That's why Mr. Miller asked me to come over."
"However, he just wants me to help Miss Dawson manage the PR department, and fill in the gaps with respect to industry information as well as networking. That's all."
Everyone knew what Mr. Miller meant after listening to Julia's speech.
So that was it.
