Ex-wife, Please Come Back

At first, they just discussed in a low voice, but then, their voice got louder. The atmosphere of the meeting finally became electric.
Jacob just looked at these people without saying anything.
No one knew what Jacob was thinking about, just like no one knew what their opinions would turn into what results. Earl sat
there in silence. He was observing Jacob during the meeting.
Jacob was special. He was different from other CEOs. Because other CEOs definitely couldn't tolerate such a noise in the
meeting, and they would not really think from the employees' point of view when they were making a choice.
And now, Jacob's silence gave everyone a good opportunity. They found that Jacob was different from the tart and mean man
what they had imagined.
Many people heard of him from other's words, some of which were correct, but most of the time, what people said was probably
wrong.
After their voices began to grow louder, Jacob heard them clearly. This was probably a kind of trust. If Jacob couldn't hear what
they thought, then the meeting would be meaningless.
Moreover, his purpose of holding this meeting was to "retrieve the lost hearts" in the company. Humans were sentimental
creatures. There was a saying that man's nature at birth was good.
Even though Jacob didn't say anything, his silence was more powerful than his words.
"The company can be transformed, but it lacks experience. Our company will be on the verge of collapse if it encountered even
one obstacle. "
"Yes, transformation is a good choice. The company remains stagnant for a while. But now, it had gone through the most difficult
times. Is it really necessary for us to start a transformation? "
"Yes, it is necessary to transform. It is essential factor if the company wants to have a further development. In the long run, the
company's transformation is also good for the employee's development. "
"Development? What development it would be if the employees are not used to the new production system and development
mode? I think we should consider carefully before making a decision. After all, we are as old as this company. We don't have
time to make something new now. "

"Well... But even a withered tree could come to life again. We should have faith on it. Besides, Mr. Jacob could take good care of
the Shi Group. Do you think that he couldn't bring this small company back to life again? "
"No, no. The success of a company could not attributed to one certain person. No matter how important a person's role was, we
have to analyze from the overall situation. Otherwise, the current situation could only end up being perish. "
"..."
The conversation and the discussion were still going on. Earl, who used to be the most dissatisfied one, didn't say a word today.
Finally, someone noticed his oddness and plucked up the courage to ask.
"Mr. Earl, you should also make some comments on this matter. Your distinguished contribution to this company is obvious to the
company. Please say something."
Someone began to urge Earl to speak. Maybe Earl was composing a speech when he was silent. Everyone stopped when they
heard this, noticing that Earl did not speak today.
Earl looked around. Some of the people who had just have a heated discussion were so excited that their faces had turned red.
In the past, Earl must have been one of them, but now things were totally different.
Earl was as indifferent as an outsider to this matter. He was still thinking about what Jacob had said, and now he felt he could not
refute his words.
The survival of the fittest was a natural rule, and those who couldn't adapt to it would naturally be eliminated. If the company had
to fire some staffs who couldn't continue to work because of the transformation, it might be too cruel.
But since the company doesn't need them anymore, it couldn't keep them no matter what. If they continued to stay in the
company, it would only cause the resources wasted.
So Earl's worry had been faded away after he was persuaded by Jacob. Earl looked at the people present indifferently. This
crisis was exactly the same as before.
The difference was that the previous crisis was about the company, and this time it was only about the employees' capacity.
Personal and collective crises were different.
If it was a collective crisis, everyone would have an illusion. Which was everyone could work together when they faced a
collective crisis. But what about the personal crisis?

Everyone would only feel that this was just their trouble, and that others would definitely give them up to protect themselves.
Therefore, personal crisis would make people feel more insecure.
This transformation seemed to be a crisis for the company, but in fact, it was not.
"I think a transformation is necessary to the company. There are some things that we cannot control in our lives. We can only
accept it. We can't change the world, but we can change ourselves. "
Earl said in a light voice as if he was telling a story.
Many people who opposed the transformation were confused by what Earl said. They didn't understand why Earl, who strongly
opposed the transformation yesterday, didn't say anything to oppose today.
Did he receive any benefit or threat? Everyone looked at Earl in disbelief, except for Jacob.
"I know you may suspect me because of my attitude's change, but that's my thoughts. The survival of the fittest has always been
the rule of this world. Since the company can become better after it transformed, why can't we just let go? "
Earl didn't say what he was thinking, but began to persuade people around. Jacob winked at Cindy, indicating her to write it
down.
Cindy nodded. Although Jacob didn't say anything, she knew what Jacob meant.
They had worked together for such a long time, and she had been Jacob's assistant for so long. They already had tacit and she
didn't need to communicate by words to know what Jacob wanted to say.
But Cindy was also confused about Earl's attitude. As far as she knew, Earl was the one who had been against the company's
transformation the most.
Earl was capable and popular in the company. Like most people did, he thought that the company's transformation was to fire old
employees like him.
But now, Earl's attitude made them confused. Cindy suddenly remembered that Jacob went out to visit Earl yesterday. Did
something happen and make Earl change his attitude?
It must be like this! When Cindy thought about this, she couldn't help but feel respect for Jacob. Jacob became more mature and
capable now. No matter what happened, he could still remain perfectly calm and collected.

Cindy was happy when she thought about it. It turned out that she had made the right choice. She could learn a lot from the right
person she chose.
