Mysterious Mrs. Pansy

After seeing off Boss Weston, Patrick sat in his office massaging his temples. These past few days, Patrick had been working tirelessly. He had to personally attend the rescue negotiations because he didn’t want any deviations to occur.

His assistant brewed a cup of coffee for Patrick and placed it in front of him.

“If you’re too tired, take a break or go home and rest!” the assistant suggested cautiously. He knew that there was a conflict between Patrick and Jane, and it was best to convey the message through subtle remarks like these.

“Never mind, let’s postpone it for now. Going back at this moment would only make things unpleasant for both parties,” Patrick replied. “We both need to calm down, and the company can’t function without me, so I can’t go back immediately.”

Clearly, Patrick was unwilling to dwell on this topic any longer. He swiftly moved on to discussing other matters.

Patrick mentioned the key points of several company projects, and the assistant dutifully took notes. He also informed Patrick about details that he was unaware of.

The two continued their discussion, with Patrick considering how to negotiate with the other company during their research. Soon, a plan formed in his mind.

He knew what they should do after the inspection, how to negotiate, and which key points and details to focus on.

“We should first make the other party see the strength of our company and then ensure they don’t see any flaws,” Patrick said. “Of course, we don’t intend to hide these flaws, but we need to rectify them immediately.”

Patrick was not someone who concealed his own shortcomings. He knew that flaws would always be flaws. Even if the other party hadn’t discovered them temporarily, they would eventually find them through collaboration. It would only lead to conflict between the two parties, so it was better to correct these flaws now.

“I will immediately arrange an internal inspection and self-correction in our company, exposing our problems actively,” Patrick declared.

The assistant understood Patrick’s attitude, which was why he said as much. If Patrick had wanted to hide the flaws, the assistant wouldn’t have been so busy. After all, it would have been simple to conceal everything with just a few moves. Since it was an internal matter, only those within the company would know about the flaws. However, even Patrick couldn’t guarantee that all their flaws would be noticed when they visited the other company.

In reality, they would only observe the other company’s overall operational process. Patrick was busy with his work, and Jane had not been idle either.

Several negotiations had taken place within the company, and they had reached agreements with some variety shows, which made Jane very satisfied.

Today, Jane made a special visit to the relevant department. As soon as she sat down, Mr. Blackwood raised the issues they had discovered in Jane’s company.

“These are the problems that exist internally in your company. I remember that during the previous two occasions, you assured us that everything would be fine!” Mr. Blackwood said. “Now that this problem has emerged, we must take appropriate measures. Otherwise, who knows what other mistakes your company might make!”

Jane furrowed her brows when she saw the issues listed in the records. It was because these mistakes were a matter of common sense. Jane didn’t expect the staff members to have such low levels of understanding.

“I apologize, leaders. Some of our artists don’t have a formal education, so their cultural literacy is low. They made these common mistakes, and I take responsibility for it,” Jane explained. “However, our company has a proactive attitude towards making improvements. We hope that you, as leaders, can see that we’re not stagnating, but rather, moving forward!”

Jane explained part of the reason behind the mistakes. After all, the artists had simply misspoke. But in situations like this, their words carried much weight and could be a serious matter. Although it hadn’t violated any major rules, it was still inappropriate language, and it would certainly displease others. Although the netizens had yet to voice their opinions, the relevant departments were already dissatisfied with the artists’ comments, especially considering the content of the programs they had participated in.

“Your attitude in admitting your mistakes is commendable, but that doesn’t mean your artists will correct their mistakes just because you admitted them,” Mr. Holden commented, stating a fair point. He was actually telling Jane that she needed to come up with appropriate measures to resolve the problem, rather than just admitting to the mistakes. Admitting mistakes and punishment shouldn’t be the end goal; the true goal was to prevent further problems in Jane’s company.

“After we return, we will immediately conduct internal inspections of all artist performances. We need to review and approve their rehearsals in advance to have control over most aspects,” Jane proposed. “We will also hold internal meetings to address this issue, and we will handle the inappropriate comments made by our artists, hoping to prevent similar incidents in the future.”

Jane’s attitude came across as sincere because reviewing and approving rehearsals inevitably involved a significant level of competitiveness for a company. Moreover, some programs involved confidentiality, so it was necessary to communicate effectively with other companies. This matter wasn’t just an internal affair for Jane’s company; it also involved other companies.

Upon hearing Jane’s proposal, Mr. Holden was actually very satisfied. He knew the current market situation.NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

“If your company encounters any issues again, we will have to shut down your operations for internal reorganization. This time, we are only giving you a verbal warning,” Mr. Holden said. “However, we will record this incident in our files. You need to publicly acknowledge your mistake on the internet and actively implement corrective measures for all netizens to see.”

Mr. Holden’s solution was simple. If Jane acknowledged the mistakes before the issue escalated, it might not cause significant trouble. It’s possible that there would even be praise from many netizens facing Jane’s company. The relevant departments could then guide the situation positively, and the issue could be resolved.

“I understand. Thank you for your guidance. I will immediately handle this matter,” Jane responded. “I hope the leaders can understand the difficulties our company is facing and also understand the challenges we have in managing our artists. I will continue to make efforts.”

Jane accepted the criticism humbly and expressed her attitude.
