Chapter 1106 - Good Seedling

"You're hired," Jin Liwei said.
As soon as he heard the words, Jasper shot out of his seat and started jumping and running all around his apartment with both arms raised up high in the air while shouting for joy.
In their own private channel where Jasper couldn't hear them, the white cat AI said, "Daddy, Ketchup takes back what the cute and mighty me said earlier that this Jasper guy is boring. Actually, he's a bit interesting and funny especially when he's acting super-duper to the highest level happy and excited after being hired to work at Ketchup's own company. He has good taste because Ketchup's company is super-duper awesome! The cute and mighty me no longer holds a grudge when he called Ketchup a scammer before. He's no longer a poopoo-head! Hehehe. Meow~"
Jin Liwei nodded but his mind was already polishing the plan that he formulated on how to train Jasper Leung into shape fast so that the young man could become the key person that he envisioned in the battle against the Youngs in Singapore in the shortest amount of time possible. Hiring Jasper Leung in his AI daughter's company was only the first step.
It wasn't just for the sake of training and preparing the young man to grow into a charismatic frontman who would be able to gain the sympathy of the majority of the people. It was also to keep him safe.
As long as Jasper Leung was an official employee of White Tigress International Virtual Assistant Services, Jin Liwei would have a legitimate reason to provide him with resources and support behind the scenes under the guise of his AI daughter's company.
Declaring war against the Youngs was a dangerous endeavour after all due to the mysterious power backing them. If it weren't for their mysterious backer, Jin Liwei would have already removed their power as soon as he learned about their corruption in the Singapore branch. Therefore, he had to use a more roundabout way to kick out the corrupt and overambitious Youngs from the Singapore branch instead of directly retrieving the power and control from them. His investigations indicated that the Youngs' tentacles had stretched and spread too deep in the entire Singapore branch thanks to their mysterious backers.
If Jin Liwei wasn't careful, the Singapore branch might collapse if he purged the Youngs by force. Jin Corporation's position in Asia might destabilize if this happened.
He glanced at Jasper Leung and analyzed the young man as someone who had potential. Jasper was a good seedling—morally upright and resilient even in the midst of a crisis.
Jin Liwei planned on nurturing this seedling. Hopefully, his efforts wouldn't end up in vain and Jasper could grow into a tall and sturdy tree who would eventually become a reliable support for Jin Corporation after they rid the Singapore branch of all the Youngs, those parasites.
Finally, Jasper calmed down and returned to his seat in front of the computer. His red face showed his embarrassment. He quickly apologized for losing control of his emotions just now.
"That's fine, hairline! Kitty Jin doesn't mind. Actually, the cute and mighty me feels very happy that you're so excited to work for my super-duper awesome company! Meow~"
Jasper looked relieved. "Thank you, Miss Kitty Jin." Then he glanced at Jin Liwei, waiting for the CEO's judgment.
Jin Liwei waved a hand, dismissing his concerns away. "It's fine. You can discuss with my daughter about the specifics of your employment contract. My assistant will also contact you at a later date about the NDA."
"Yes, sir. No problem, sir."
Jin Liwei stared at him for a few seconds, causing Jasper to squirm on his seat and wonder if he did anything to offend his idol businessman. Why was CEO Jin staring at him so hard?
"I will be observing your performance at White Tigress," Jin Liwei finally said.
"Yes, sir!"
"Work well with my daughter. Do your best to improve yourself and don't be afraid to expand your skillset to other areas besides the PR field. It's good to be a specialist, but in the business world, only those who could excel in multiple areas will make them stand out among their peers."
Jasper was ecstatic that he was getting advice from THE Jin Liwei himself. This was a dream come true. "Understood, sir! I'll follow your words of wisdom."
Jin Liwei nodded, his expression not showing any distinct changes, but Jasper sensed that the CEO was pleased with him. Jasper became even happier.
"Remember this, Jasper Leung. White Tigress International Virtual Assistant Services has me, Jin Liwei, as its backer."
Jasper gulped, immediately understanding the implication in the CEO's seemingly simple statement. It was a reassurance but also a threat.
As long as he did his job well, he would surely be rewarded accordingly. But if he somehow turned stupid and did the opposite, Jin Liwei and his daughter Kitty Jin would surely throw him out like a dog who bit its owner's hand that fed him.
Determination flashed in Jasper's eyes. "Don't worry, sir. I'll surely do my best and not make you regret hiring me for this position."
"En, good."
"Miss Kitty Jin, I'll be in your care from now on. Please guide me and I'll do my best to learn properly."
"That's good, cat food! Kitty Jin is a super-duper to the highest level great boss like my daddy and mommy. Jasper will have a bright future as long as you follow the cute and mighty me! Hihihi. Right, Daddy? Meow~"
"En."
Kitty Jin was about to end the video call when Jasper stopped her. "Wait! Sir, I have…uhm…I want to say something. It's very important."
Jin Liwei raised an eyebrow before waving a hand. "Speak."
Jasper told him about the corruption he witnessed at Jin Corporation's Singaporean branch. At first, he was careful, afraid that it would offend CEO Jin Liwei and make his idol retract the job offer. But after seeing that the CEO was seriously listening to his account, he gained more confidence and spilled everything about the Youngs' lawlessness.
This was CEO Jin's business after all. He deserved to know. Jasper felt indignant on behalf of his idol. How dare those Youngs' use his idol's company for their own family's benefit and act like it was their own belonging?
Audacious!
