Chapter 161 – Hanks, Life’s Gamble
The next day, Hanks arrived at the arranged location.
Seeing Bell again, Hanks felt complicated.
“Hanks, it’s been a while.”
Bell smiled and sat down opposite Hanks.
He greeted Hanks like he was meeting an old friend.
Hanks smiled bitterly.
“Mr. Bell, it’s been a while, but you’ve changed a lot compared to last time.”
Although Hanks had not contacted Bell for a long time, he had been paying attention to everything about Bell.
Bell had continued to move forward over this period.
On the other hand, because he did not have Bell, he seemed to be pushed out of the core circle of the company.
Thinking about it, it made sense. How many chances could a person have in their life? How could they encounter all kinds of good things?
It was already a huge blessing to have the opportunity to meet Bell, but unfortunately, this opportunity was destroyed by those stupid upper echelons.
Seeing that Hanks was not interested in making idle talks, Bell did not ask further.
“All right, Hanks.
I’m sure you can guess why I called you here today.
I would like to ask if you have any intention of coming to my company.
Your position will remain the same, but I can promise to give you some dividends.
You need to discuss the specific ratio with Keira and the others. What do you think?”
The two of them could be considered old acquaintances, so Bell cut to the chase.
Moreover, judging from Hanks’ expression, it was obvious that his life had not been smooth recently. Bell could not say anything more, or he would look a little fake.
Hanks froze in disbelief.
Although he had guessed that Bell would invite him to join his company, he did not expect Bell to be so direct. After all, he was still in his company.
Moreover, his company had a bad relationship with Bell.
Did Bell really trust him so much to let him join his company?
Hanks was doubtful.
“I know what you’re thinking, but if you doubt a person, don’t use him, and if you use a person, don’t doubt him.
Since I have already chosen to let you join the company, I will not suspect you.
So, let’s put everything else aside.
Give me a direct answer. Do you want to join the company? ”
Bell stopped talking and looked sharply at the shocked Hanks.
Under Bell’s urgent questioning, Hanks was momentarily stunned.
After a moment, he looked up at Bell and asked seriously, “Why did you choose me?”
He was a little puzzled. Logically speaking, with Bell’s current condition, it should not be a problem to recruit a few managers.
After all, the names of the top celebrities were listed in his company.
Hanks thought to himself and knew that he was definitely not the best.
Bell smiled.
“Why did I choose you?
The reason is very simple. Because we have worked together before.
And I can tell that you’re unhappy with your current company.
In that case, why not change it?
How about it? Are you interested in taking a gamble?
You should know about my company’s situation.
It will either soar into the sky or be reduced to dust. ”
Almost everyone in the industry knew about Bell’s company, so Bell was not interested in hiding anything.
Although Bell could recruit many people, the older people in the industry would not take this risk.
Before Bell’s company stabilized, they would only continue to observe. No matter what condition Bell gave, they would not agree.
Because no amount of treatment was worth mentioning compared to the future.
Bell had seen Hanks’ level of business before, and it was not worse than some people who had been in this industry for many years.
Most importantly, Hanks had his own thoughts and goals.
After considering various reasons, Bell chose to recruit him.
After hearing Bell’s answer, Hanks did not immediately respond.
Just like Bell had said, it was a gamble.
If the gamble went well, Bell’s company would soar, and he would soar as well.
It was needless to say what would happen if the gamble did not work. Hanks knew that he would be forced out of this industry like Bell’s company.
How could such an important decision be decided with just a few words?
Hanks said after a while.
“Mr. Bell, firstly, thank you.
Thank you for choosing me as a candidate.
However, this matter is really too important. Can you give me some time to think carefully? ”
Bell smiled, not surprised.
“No problem. How about this? I might have to go do the show soon.
If you agree, you can contact Scarlett and others.
You guys should be familiar with each other.”
Hanks took Scarlett’s name card and nodded.
“Then that’s it for today. I have something to do, so I’ll get going first. I’ll wait for your reply.”
The two of them ended the talk and bade farewell.
Back at the villa, Keira, Scarlett, and the others were busy.
Of course, other than running the company, the main problem was recruitment.
Recruitment was a huge project in a new company.
Seeing Bell return, Scarlett Johansson turned and asked.
“How was it? Did Hanks agree?”
Bell was about to start filming. They really needed a manager to manage everything for Bell.
After all, they were not professionals. Although they could deal with most of the things for Bell, they would not be professionals.
“He wanted some time, but I gave him your phone number and contact details.
If he’s willing to join, he will contact you.”
Scarlett did not say anything else.
“By the way, the Wilderness Survival’s production team called in the afternoon. They said that the program will be starting in the next two days. If you have time, go over and prepare.”
“They are in so much hurry this time? Alright, I understand.”
The show was going to be in another country after all. Other than the issue of the passport, there was also the issue of the territory.
It was impossible for Bell to take the helicopter to the location of survival.
He had to go to the local area first.
After knowing that a new adventure was about to begin, Bell began to calculate what he needed.
