"Something happened, boss. Where are you?" Assistant Cindy's voice sounded a little anxious.
Something bad happened, but she couldn't get in touch with Jacob.
"What's wrong?" Jacob finally regained his usual calm, with an indescribable coldness between his
eyebrows.
"Please come back to the company. Something happened to the new energy plant. There was a big
explosion. We still don't know the toll..." Cindy was trembling. It was the biggest investment in the
company. If something happened to the new energy plant, it would put a lot of pressure on the
company.
"I'll be right back. Don't worry. Ask the people in the company to prepare for the crisis first." Jacob
hurriedly hung up and looked up at the window of Sara's house. No one was there.
It turned out that busy people didn't even have time to be sad. Just a morning later, something big
happened again.
'Still don't know the toll...' So how many people had died?
Jacob tried his best to cheer himself up. He couldn't fall down now. Life seemed to be made up of crisis
one after another. Jacob drove the car at full speed and returned to the company almost at the fastest
speed.
Since James was there, he would definitely handle everything well. But James was not omnipotent.
This matter was not trivial. If it was not handled well, there would definitely be a series of negative
effects.
Jacob frowned even before he arrived at the gate of the company. He saw that there were already
many reporters and family members of employees blocking the entrance of the company. They were
waving their arms and trying to rush into the company. Assistant Cindy stood in front of them with a
group of guards.
Jacob knew that Cindy came downstairs to wait for him. But in such a situation, if he appeared
blatantly, he would definitely be caught and asked.
Jacob frowned. He had to go in. He was not afraid of these fierce looking people.
He parked his car at the door. Someone shouted:
"The CEO of the Shi Group is back! Look!" That person wore a gray knitted hat. He looked like a
passer-by, but pointing at the direction of Jacob's car.
Jacob couldn't help but frown. These people were really difficult to deal with. Especially those reporters.
Assistant Qian also found Jacob's car. It took her a long time to get out of the car to protect Jacob.
Then they all hugged her.
"Mr. Jacob, do you know that something happened to your company?" A man with short hair asked
anxiously with a microphone in his hand.
"I didn't know it before, but now I know." Jacob glanced at him coldly. He didn't want to answer such a
stupid question. If he didn't know about it, would he come to the company right away?
"Then how will you deal with this problem? It's said that the accident caused a lot of casualties. The
family members want to get an explanation." Another bald man with a cap rushed up. He didn't want to
miss such a good opportunity and such a good news.
"Well, we will go to court. Just do what we should do. The company will handle it well." Jacob's brows
furrowed deeper and deeper. He couldn't get out of these people at all.
"Then what do you think is the reason for this accident?" The reporter wouldn't give up until he got the
answer he wanted. Jacob's answer sounded too perfunctory.
"We will investigate the cause of the accident as soon as possible. Don't worry. The company will give
a reasonable explanation to the society. At that time, I hope that other enterprises can learn from it."
Jacob glanced at the thick crowds. He had planned to move forward, but he stopped.
Assistant Cindy looked up at Jacob and thought, 'he is still so calm after such an important thing.' Then
she also calmed down. She was shocked by those who looked fierce just now.
"Hurry up. Give the boss a way out and call the security." Cindy, who had regained her consciousness,
finally came to her senses. She couldn't be stunned. She had to solve the problem for Jacob at such a
moment.
So she stretched out her hands to protect Jacob, forming a semicircle.
Jacob nodded approvingly. This assistant was getting more and more handy. At that time, the people in
the human resources department really had a good eye.
"Do you think the company should take the main responsibility?" The reporter didn't give up and asked
more fierce questions.
This was a trap. No matter how Jacob answered, it wouldn't be good for him. If he said yes, then the
company would take a lot of responsibility. If he said no, then these families would not let him go at this
moment.
"We can't make a conclusion yet. After all, the cause of the accident was not clear yet. But there is one
thing for sure: the company is responsible. As for the responsibility, we can negotiate." Jacob lowered
his eyes and walked slowly. The noisy voice beside his ears annoyed him.
"So you mean the company is responsible, but only a small responsibility?" A tall man with glasses
suddenly asked.
Jacob frowned. Did he mean that? The person who misinterpreted it was really good at interpretation.
He looked up and found it was the famous paparazzi, Colin.
"I don't know how you got it, but I want to say that it only represents your personal opinion. I can't agree
with you. But I can only say that the company is responsible. It's for sure." Jacob's face remained
expressionless. His patience had reached its limit.
"Oh, then what do you think is the definition of responsibility? The people waiting here are eager to
know." With a snicker on his face, Colin began to urge the people around him, "Do you think Mr. Jacob
should give us an explanation now?"
Some of the family members began to get excited. Of course they came here to ask the company to
give them an explanation. It was really annoying to see Jacob's prevarication. After all, as long as he
didn't give a direct answer, he was prevaricating.
"Yes, you have to give us an explanation." One of the men said through gritted teeth. It was hard to tell
who he was, but it could be seen that he was not a good person.
"The company will give you an explanation, but not now. Let's talk about it after we figure out the cause
of the accident." Cindy said loudly to help Jacob out. She had been thinking about it for a long time.
Even though it was her duty, Jacob still nodded approvingly.
"We don't care. We want to have an explanation now. Otherwise, how can the Shi Group be convincing
in the future? How can you continue to maintain your business?" Colin continued to incite everyone,
with a provocative look in his eyes.
"So if I don't explain today, I won't be able to gain a foothold in the future, right?" Jacob looked coldly at
Colin in front of him. He didn't take him seriously at all. He didn't expect that Colin would make trouble
again and again.
'If you want to make trouble, then I'll see what you want.' Noticing the change of Jacobs attitude, Colin
seemed to be excited.
"Mr. Jacob, are you angry from embarrassment? Is it time to give everyone present hush money to
make us keep silent?" Colin sneered. He looked confident with years of paparazzi experience.
He didn't believe that with the media and the family members here, Jacob would do anything to him in
broad daylight.
Now he had everything under his control. The one who was in trouble should be Jacob, not himself with
so many supporters.
Jacob cast a cold glance at the man in front of him and took two steps forward quickly. He couldn't get
rid of the crowd. He felt like he was surrounded wherever he went. This made him angry.
