Chapter 286 Alex
?
After he had gotten the professional script writing skills, Jack didn't delay any longer and decided to contact the person who was in charge of The Rose Entertainment Company.
Not long after, the call connected and a man's deep voice came through the speaker of the phone. "Hello boss."
"Yes Alex, how was your day?" Jack questioned. Alex was the current CEO who had been appointed by Jack after Denali had approved of him. He was the one who was currently taking charge of The Rose Entertainment Company.
His abilities could not be doubted because Jack had seen it himself. Alex was definitely a man who was decisive enough to make decisions concerning the company.
His capabilities could not be doubted since Denali had actually acquired him from somewhere. And since she had taken him away, the place where Alex was working before was definitely crying.
This was due to the fact that, ever since Alex took over as the CEO of The Rose Entertainment Company, there had been so much progress in the company. It wasn't just a matter of music, but even the movies and TV series that were being produced what definitely being at a good level.
Unlike some of the CEOs who could easily allow any kind of script in the entertainment company for their own benefits, Alex was different. As long as the script was not on par, he would definitely not allow it in the company.
This was something that Jack loved about this guy. It definitely wasn't easy to get a person who was capable as him.
"My day has been good boss. What about you?" Alex replied in a cheerful voice. Although he was somehow tired due to the heavy duties that he was taking care of, he was still happy about the position that he was occupying.
Moreover, his boss was definitely a person that many people would have dreamed of getting as a boss for them. As long as his actions were for the good of the company, the boss was willing to support him fully.
This had made him be in a good mood ever since he had taken over the position of the CEO for a month now.
"That's good to hear. Tomorrow, I will be coming over because I need something to change. Currently, the main problem that the company is experiencing will definitely be the lack of quality scripts. You have to be prepared to start acting on the scripts that I'm going to present to you soon." Jack stated.
Alex was stunned for a moment as he had never expected that his boss was going to take care of the problem that had been disturbing him for a very long time now.
It was just that, he had been afraid that his boss would say that he was incompetent if he was not capable of getting good scripts.
Who knew that something like this would happen? The boss had decided to come forward on his own to solve the problem that had been eating his mind all along.
But still, he was quite skeptical about the quality of the scripts that Jack was going to bring over. At the end of the day, he wasn't sure about Jack's character just yet.
The two of them had not met for a very long time yet. And since he was always busy and Jack rarely visited the company, the interaction between them was limited.
What he currently hoped was definitely for Jack not to be just like some of the bosses who would use this opportunity to bring over scripts that were basically trash just to please someone.
"Okay then. I will be making preparations as early as now." All the same, Alex replied. There wasn't any way that he was going to go against his current boss.
Previously, before he was taken by Denali to come and work for Jack, he had been in a small entertainment company. The reason as to why that company was small was not due to the lack of capital or stars.
The main reason for that was simply because, the boss of that company was a moron. He had actually taken over the company from his father after he passed away.
But the guy was a person who liked vanity. And as a result, he would actually bring any kind of script as long as he got the benefit that he wanted from the other party. It didn't matter if the movie or TV series performed well, as long as he got what he wanted, he was satisfied.
Since Alex was currently the CEO of that company, he had been depressed. No matter how much he tried to advise that guy, he would be ignored. At the end of the day, Alex was just a CEO who could be replaced at any time.
But, due to the behavior of that boss, the company had began losing several of its stars. And the main reason for this was due to the fact that, the boss was misbehaving. None of the female stars in the company were safe from him as long as they were working in that company.
As usual, a person like him was shrewd. During the time that he was signing the stars, he had made sure to include several clauses that would bind that particular star to the company for a very long period of time in the contract.
And the breach of the contract was going to result into that particular star paying a remuneration that was just impossible to imagine. It could be outright said that it was unreasonable.
But since the stars were happy to get the job, they had no choice but to swallow their dissatisfaction and get the contract. But when the boss began misbehaving, they were in deep trouble.
He had been getting desperate about the job. If possible, he would have quit long ago and looked for another opportunity. But, since he was in urgent need of money, he had no choice but to stay there.
Additionally, just like the stars, he too had signed a contract that if breached, he would have to pay a compensation of $500 million. This was an amount that he couldn't afford as he himself was already in need of money.
Just as his hopes were about to be crushed, Denali suddenly appeared and offered him an opportunity to work for Jack's company.
Additionally, she had even offered to pay for the breach of contract penalty. And since he had been granted such an opportunity, of course, Alex accepted.
And when he got to know that he was actually going to be the CEO of The Rose Entertainment Company, he was completely ecstatic.
During the time that he was signing the contract, he found out that the contract that he was being offered was definitely the best that he had ever dreamed of.
That was the exact reason as to why he had been working diligently during the past month that he was in that position. And due to his efforts, the performance of the company had definitely shot up.
It wasn't just a matter of releasing new movies and so on. It was also a matter of entertainment, as well as the treatment of the stars. This had definitely created a good working environment for the people in the company.
And as a result, the performance of every department of the company had definitely increased. This was something that had made him happy.
Added with the support that he received from Jack in terms of finance, Alex couldn't be more happy. But, the only thing that he wished for was definitely for Jack not to be like his previous boss.
After he ended his call with Jack, he immediately got out of his office and headed straight for the secretary.
The secretary was a young man who seemed to be in his early twenties. He was diligent in his work and he had been recommended to him by Denali.
Since she trusted him as she had been able to give him this opportunity, as well as the fact that she was good at identifying people with capabilities, he had decided to trust this secretary that had been recommended.
That was the reason as to why he had hired him although he was young. The young man's name was Patrick. He hadn't entered the society for a long time now. In fact, it wasn't long since he graduated.
"Patrick, begin making preparations that are necessary for production. The boss is going to bring several scripts that will need to be produced as soon as possible. So, contact all those that can be found and inform them to be ready in case they are needed." Alex stated.
Patrick was quite surprised to see that his boss actually came over to pass that piece of information. If it were any other time, just a phone call was enough to let him know about this.
All the same, he didn't dare to delay and decided to contact all those that could be contacted through the email. It wasn't just those who were supposed to be the stars, but even the staff members.
As long as they were not busy currently, they were contacted that they might be needed soon.
When he saw that Patrick was making the communication, Alex nodded before he got back into his office. He too needed to make some preparations because Jack was going to come over the following day.
