The Bodyguard System

The following day, Jaden went to Dazzling entertainment company. The moment that he arrived there, he found that the entire company was bustling.

This surprised Jaden a little. But, he did not pay that much attention to that, as he immediately focused on getting to his office. The receptionists did not stop Jaden at all, as it seemed that they had already been informed about his position in the company.

Jaden's office was located right next to Samuel's. This was something that he had found out through the information that was provided by the AI the previous day.

But Jaden noticed that as he went through the lobby area on the ground floor, several people were looking at him. There was a combination of mocking, anxious, and anticipating gazes that were all aimed at him.

Jaden immediately understood that this group of people had already been informed about what he had said in the conference the previous day. He did not mind that though, considering that it was something that he had already expected.

But from the way that they were looking at him, it was clear that the majority of them did not believe what he had said was actually going to happen today. Most of them thought that it was just going to be a scare.

Jaden did not need to arrive to his office before meeting with Samuel. Just as he was about to enter the elevator that was only used by the top management of the company, he found that Samuel was already waiting for him there.

"Good morning boss." Samuel greeted Jaden. Even though he was trying to sound natural, Jaden could feel that Samuel was feeling a little anxious.

"Good morning to you too." Jaden replied the greeting. Then, he asked, "Have you already prepared yourself for the changes that are going to happen today?"

Samuel took a deep breath before nodding while saying, "I have already prepared myself. I will always support you in the decisions that you are going to make."

"That's good." Jaden responded. He appreciated Samuel's attitude. Then, the two of them immediately got in the elevator, before they went to the top floor of the building.

"I have already sent the notification to those that are supposed to be losing their jobs today about this matter. There is no need for a conference to be held, as you can help them go through the procedures that are required for them to leave the company." Jaden said the moment that the two of them got out of the elevator.

Samuel was surprised. He had thought that perhaps Jaden was going to ask him about those that might be losing their jobs today, as he had been here in this company from the start. But from the looks of it, it seemed that Jaden had somehow managed to get information about this.

But considering the way that those people were handling themselves, it was not impossible for other people who carried out some kind of investigation to be able to find out about this information.

But Samuel did not go ahead to carry out the task that had been given to him by Jaden immediately. Instead, he seemed to hesitate, something that Jaden noticed immediately.

"Is something on your mind?" Jaden asked with a raised brow. Actually, the matter of sending the notification to those that he was going to fire today had only happened a few seconds ago, when he was still in the elevator.

He had notified the AI to do that when he was in the elevator. So, during the time that he was still downstairs, those that saw him and were supposed to be leaving the company today did not know that they were actually going to be fired.

"The problem is the contracts that they signed. If they lose their jobs today, they would require to be compensated for losing the jobs without any prior warning, which is supposed to be 2 months in advance, instead of one day." Samuel said honestly.

"Don't worry about that. I will inject some money into the company's account. That is the money that will be used for the compensation and so on. Just make sure that they leave as soon as possible. I want it to be done by afternoon today." Jaden responded nonchalantly.

Samuel was a little surprised at Jaden's attitude. He believed that Jaden understood that the amount that was going to be recorded as a form of compensation was going to be quite high. But from the way that he was acting, it was as if that amount of money was not much to him at all.

Anyway, Jaden did not lack that money. After all, ever since the AI decided to help Jaden gain money from the stock market, Jaden's account was bloated by a large amount of money.

Currently, Jaden was already considered as a multi-billionaire, if one was just going to count the money in his bank account. Jaden would have easily become a trillionaire, but he had to stop the AI, as the way that it was making money was way too high profile.

Currently, it had already been more than one month ever since he stopped trading on the stock market using the AI. Otherwise, he would have already become a trillionaire by now.

The moment that Jaden said those words, the AI immediately accessed his account, before transferring $500 million into the company's account.

Jaden did not pay much attention to Samuel, and immediately went to his office, to get familiar with it.

Samuel on the other hand went on to carry out the orders that had been given to him by Jaden. He first went to confirm the account balance, only to realize that there was an increase in the account balance by $500 million.

This surprised him. He had not expected such an increase in the account's balance, a few moments only after Jaden had said that he was going to give the company the money that was required to lay off those that were working in the company under a contract.

As for the list of the names of the people that were going to be laid off, he had already received it through his email from Jaden. So, even though Jaden had already given a notification to those people, Samuel would have to follow up on this matter.

The moment that Samuel announced the laying off of almost all the top management staff, the entire company suddenly became chaotic. Threats could be heard being thrown around, and from time to time, people could be heard crying.

It was clearly something that many people had not anticipated to happen. But it had already happened, and they had already received a notification that they were supposed to leave the company on this specific day, before afternoon. Otherwise, it would be considered that they were currently trespassing in the company building.

The authority that was given to the majority of the management staff of the company was immediately revoked by Samuel. It was not impossible for one of them to suddenly decide to take money from the company's account, so that they could escape and go to another nation and enjoy themselves.

Of course, it was not impossible to find that there was a group of people that thought that it was not lawful for them to lose their jobs. But the moment that they started complaining, they immediately received evidences in their phones or laptops about the reason why they were losing their jobs.

For those that were complaining, it did not end by just losing their jobs, but instead, they ended up being reported for the activities that they had been carrying out in the company.

With that, several police cars suddenly arrived outside the company building, and many of the people that were part of the top management of the company were arrested. This immediately sent shivers down the spines of those artists that were watching everything that was happening.

By the time that noon came, all those that were supposed to leave the company had already left. But even with the presence of the artists in the company, the company seemed completely empty. There was a solemn atmosphere in the company.

It was only after the top management of the company had been dealt with, that it was finally time to deal with the artists that had gone beyond what was tolerated in the company.

Just like those that have been laid off before, those artists had their contract terminated, and if there was a penalty fee to be paid, it was paid immediately without any delay.

In any case, just from the way that Samuel was acting, the company did not seem to have any problem paying the penalty fees of terminating the contracts, many people got the message. It was clear that it seemed that the company did not lack money at all.

Nonetheless, the moment that the majority of the people left the company all of a sudden, the other companies took action almost immediately. They began recruiting those that had left Dazzling entertainment into their own companies.

And as they did that, they could not help but mock Dazzling entertainment. They believed that this company was going to collapse soon without this group of people holding fort at the top of the company.

So, they thought that this was an opportunity for them to be able to take over the position of the top entertainment company in the city.

Of course, those that had managed to join the other companies did not only join the companies present inside Faru city, but some of them even managed to join entertainment companies that were present in other cities.

It could be said that with just a single move, Jaden had suddenly raised a storm within the entertainment industry. But that was not going to be the end of it all, as there was still something that Jaden was going to carry out next.
