Joseph had been an executive in the company for many years and had secretly infringed on countless
of the company’s vested interests. His son, Mack, would not have the guts to paw at the company’s
artists otherwise.
It was not that Michael did not know of it, but Joseph was indeed a founding member who had followed
him for many years. On the other hand, there was also the complexity of bureaucratic division within
Gladness Entertainment Movies, and if he disturbed one division, the rest would also be affected. It
would be big trouble for Michael to deal with it.
However, it was different now.
Jasper never had the intention to take things slow and steady. When he made a move, he would make
it big. It was not only to establish his authority but also to sweep away every other background noise in
the company. It would only be him who had the authority and power.
“My apologies, Mr. Laine, I…” Joseph said with a troubled expression. He had the intention of
acknowledging his mistake.
“There’s no need to apologize,” Jasper interrupted him once again.
“Having been with Gladness for so many years, you still made the effort even if you didn’t gain
achievements. I’ll let you keep your reputation, so do hand me your resignation letter voluntarily
tomorrow.”
Jasper’s words completely changed the expression on Joseph’s face.
Every one of the higher-level management including him had thought that Jasper only wanted to
display some authority after taking office.
However, he had immediately gone to the depths by taking action, and his method was intense.
Shocked and in disbelief, Joseph opened his mouth in indignation. He said, “Jasper, what is the
meaning of this?”
“Was my intention not clear enough?” Jasper asked indifferently.
“I’m a founding member of this company and I manage a large number of people under me. Aren’t you
afraid that the company won’t be able to run smoothly if I leave?” threatened Joseph immediately.
His gaze was bitter with resentment, yet it still held confidence and assurance.
He did not believe that Jasper would really dare go against him till the end.
Jasper looked at Joseph coolly, his eyes only showing indifference. There was no trace of concession
that Joseph was expecting on his face.
“Will the earth stop on its axis just because you’re no longer here?”
Jasper said coldly, “Get lost now and I’ll see who are the few rotten apples who will follow you as you
leave. I will sincerely thank you for saving my time in weeding and getting rid of a few more of them.”
Joseph was so angry his body shook. At the same time, there was also a feeling of despair as if the
end was approaching.
“Alright! Just wait, don’t celebrate so soon! This film company is not one where you can so easily
manage!”
After Joseph said this with a very bitter voice, he turned around and left in embarrassment.
Nobody dared take a breath. Joseph’s playing of his vice president’s card had proven that Jasper was
not only all bark and no bite. Who would dare object at this time?
Jasper did not even spare a glance at Joseph. His eyes fell on Mack, who was unable to even stand.
He was now sitting limply in the chair. Jasper said lightly, “Do you want me to get someone to escort
you out?”
Mack stood up shivering and ran away without looking back.
In the meeting room, everyone looked at Jasper and waited for him to speak after Joseph and his son
had left.
“I don’t care how the company was before, but now that I have acquired it, all of you will do things
according to my rules.
“If you’re capable, you will rise.
“If you’re not, you will fall.
“Troublemakers like Joseph will be caught and fired. There will definitely be no mercy.
“I announce Gladness Entertainment Movies to be officially renamed Advent Entertainment Group.
“It will be split into three larger business groups called Advent Films, Advent TV, and Advent Agency.
“The three business groups will be in charge of film and television dramas, singing and variety shows,
and overseeing the contracts of artists of Advent Entertainment Group respectively.
“In the meantime, President Ryder Lawrence will continue serving the group in his position. Other
personnel arrangements will remain unchanged. An official document will be issued to notify all
employees of the company of the subsequent appointment of the board of directors.”
Michael sighed softly as he looked at Jasper speaking on stage.
It seemed that Jasper had long been prepared before buying Gladness Entertainment Movies. He had
been eyeing the entertainment industry.
He suddenly regretted having sold Gladness Entertainment Movies to Jasper for a capital price of 1.5
billion. Maybe Jasper could really create a giant in the film and television entertainment industry.
