Seeing everyone's attitude, Butler Martinez nodded slightly with satisfaction, then said, "Mr. Fiorillo, the principal of the Ferguson Family Middle School, is 66 years old this year. He told me last month that he's getting old and his energy can't keep up, so he wants to retire. Mr. Fiorillo has served the Ferguson Family for 30 years and nurtured many family members. He's a great contributor to the family!"
"Although I'm very reluctant, since Mr. Fiorillo has proposed to retire, I'm willing to respect his decision. Therefore, during this period, I've been looking for a new candidate for the principal of Ferguson High School!"
"Everyone here is an elder of the family, and you all understand the importance of education to a family! Principal Ferguson is the number one choice for the family's children. It's no exaggeration to say that he's the family's blood machine. He provides the family with a steady stream of high-quality talents. Only with the support of these talents can the family prosper! "
'That's why the principal of Ferguson High School is a very important position in the family. As the family's housekeeper, I've been focusing all my energy on finding a suitable successor for Fiorillo. I think the new principal of Ferguson High School should have the following characteristics!'
"First of all, he must have a high education and graduated from a famous university, or at least a master's degree. Otherwise, how can he be the principal?
"Second, there are about 500 teachers, students, and staff in Ferguson High School. Therefore, the new principal must have rich management skills, and it would be best if he had experience in the family business!
"Third Ferguson Middle School, as the private school of the Ferguson family, is different from the public schools outside. Not only do you have to learn the knowledge from the books, but you also have to learn the spirit and traditions of the Ferguson family. As the headmaster of the school, I should take the lead and have a deep understanding of the family's spirit and traditions. Only then can I pass on the family's spirit and traditions to the teachers, students, and staff from top to bottom!"
When the others were still confused by Martinez's request, Domenech seemed to have sensed something and looked at Jack Ferguson with a pitiful expression. He lowered his head and looked at Jack Ferguson, who was still immersed in his humiliation.
Martinez didn't notice what Domenech was doing. After he finished, he said with a sigh, "I'm not going to lie to you guys, but I have a list of 10 candidates for the position of the new principal of Ferguson Middle School. The fact that they are on the list means that they are excellent enough!"
"Unfortunately, although most of the candidates have enough education, they either have no management skills or don't have a deep understanding of the spirit and traditions of the Ferguson Family. Only one person can perfectly fulfill my three requirements!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Chief Butler Martinez didn't say the name of the perfect candidate. Instead, he turned his head and looked at Jack Ferguson, who was sitting opposite him with his head lowered.
Seeing Butler Martinez's action, the senior members of the Gu Family all fixed their eyes on Jack Ferguson. Some of them were gloating over Jack Ferguson's misfortune, while some were excited because Jack Ferguson needed someone to fill his position after he was transferred. Some of them sympathized with Jack Ferguson, and some of them were intimately connected with Jack Ferguson.
At this time, Jack Ferguson lowered his head and sat in his seat. Although he was a little absent-minded due to the humiliation just now, when he felt everyone's gaze on him and carefully thought about Butler Martinez's words, he immediately understood what Butler Martinez wanted to say. In an instant, he couldn't stand it anymore. He raised his head abruptly and glared at Butler Martinez, who was sitting opposite him.
Butler Martinez wasn't surprised by Jack Ferguson's glare. He pretended that he didn't see it and continued, "I believe that all of you have already guessed that the perfect candidate to replace Mr. Fiorillo as the new principal of Ferguson High School is Jack Ferguson!"
"Jack has a Ph.D. in economics from the University of Flosinone, and he has decades of experience in managing the family business. As a core member of the family, he has inherited and understood the spirit and tradition of the Ferguson Family. I believe that all of you can see that. Since we are in the senior members' meeting now, as the butler of the Ferguson High School, I formally propose to the senior members that Jack Ferguson should replace Mr. Fiorillo as the new principal of Ferguson High School!"
Before the other senior members of the Ferguson Family could say anything, Jack Ferguson stood up again to defend his own interests. "Butler Martinez, I'm deeply honored that you think I'm the perfect candidate to be the principal of Ferguson High School. However, as you know, my Ph.D. in economics from the University of Flosinone was a correspondence course, and I've only attended a few classes!"
"Although I've managed the family business before, I've never been in contact with education. Therefore, I'm afraid that I won't be able to take on the position of the principal of Ferguson High School. I hope that Butler Martinez and the other senior members can find someone better!"
At this time, Jack Ferguson, like the elders of the family present, knew very well what the old man, Martinez, was doing. The headmaster of Ferguson Middle School was indeed a very important position in the Ferguson family. It was in charge of the family's education, and it had always been a highly respected person in the family. However, this person basically had no right to speak in the family's internal affairs except for education issues!
Although Ferguson High School made a lot of money, it was nothing compared to the family business he was in charge of now. Even maintaining his current standard of living was a problem for him, let alone supporting his subordinates!
Martinez transferred him to this position for two reasons. On one hand, he wanted to cut off his source of income. On the other hand, he wanted to drive him out of the family's power center. Without money and power, he, Jack Ferguson, wanted to replace Connor Ferguson as the new head of the Ferguson Family and the new Earl Ferguson. Wouldn't that be like a dream?
