In the first few days after Robin took over the Harper Group, he was in meetings nearly non-stop. He needed to understand and reform the past ways of operation. This big of a company wasn't something you could overhaul in just a blink of an eye.
However, the higher-ups at the Harper Group seemed a bit out of it, giving off a half-hearted vibe.
Robin's face had been grave for several days, with the atmosphere at the meetings escalating daily. Finally, he just tossed the documents in his hand aside, sat in the chairman’s seat, and stared at the others in the meeting room with furrowed brows.
"Got anything to say about these meetings in the past couple of days?"
A few senior managers glanced at each other before someone slowly spoke up,
"The company's morale is unstable right now. The previous ways of operation were figured out step by step, only stabilizing after several failures. The employees are used to seeing the former CEO as the backbone. We have no objections to you taking over the company, but you wanting to reform the old ways of operations just after taking office is a hard pill to swallow."
Hearing this, Robin scoffed, "The former CEO?"
The senior manager who spoke paused, looking a bit embarrassed. The atmosphere in the meeting room became somewhat awkward, but since someone had broken the ice, another person with an opinion spoke up.
"Also, the thing the former CEO said to the media on the day he stepped down...we can’t just ignore it..."
As soon as these words were spoken, the meeting room fell silent. On the day Damon stepped down, he only said one thing to the media.
He was going to take on the Harper Group in full force!
After a while, Robin let out a cold laugh.
"Take on the Harper Group full force, huh?"
The smile on his face gradually cooled. "Tell me, what makes him so famous now, and why do you trust him so much? Without the support of the Harper Group, how is he going to fulfill his so-called 'full force against the Harper Group'?
Afterwards, he scoffed again, "Youngsters, a bit of arrogance is okay, but believing in such unrealistic talk is inappropriate, don’t you think?"
The meeting room fell silent again. They weren't ignorant.
Hearing about a full-scale attack on the large Harper Group sounded unrealistic.
Damon was alone, without any support. Even if his current girlfriend turned into the princess of Y Country, the well-rooted foundation of the Harper Group wouldn’t be easily shaken.
Of course, they recognized the current strength of the Harper Group. But, when they saw Damon calmly saying these words in front of the media, they all felt a tightening in their hearts, subconsciously believing Damon's seemingly boastful words.
Not only them, but everyone who heard his words didn't question them. It was probably because the words came from Damon.
