Three days later.
Atkinson Group Empire held a press conference: Mr. Emmett Atkinson would assume the role of Atkinson Group CEO, succeeding Gem Atkinson.
All media and radio stations gathered at the Atkinson Group Empire Building, their long guns and short cannons already set up in abundance. The press conference hall was packed to capacity.
Gem Atkinson's resignation had been the subject of much speculation, which ultimately seemed to stem from a misjudgment in the investment with Hawkins Group, resulting in a loss of 19.6 billion dollars for Atkinson Group—a major decision-making error. According to the rules of the Atkinson Group Empire, he resigned to take responsibility.
The main reason Mr. Emmett could take on the role of Executive CEO of Atkinson Group, aside from being appointed in a time of crisis, was because he had secured a 20 billion dollar loan for Atkinson Group, which would enable the company to quickly overcome its difficulties.
