Chapter 444 Money Talks
“Send invitations to the media in Southlake City now. Invite them to the press conference,” Jyn calmly said in her seat.
For this game,
she had spent a considerable amount of money hiring a director to shoot a promotional video.
With Mia in the picture, Morrison Group would undoubtedly win the popularity battle.
“Okay. I’ll take care of it right away.” Ginger dared not dally.
“You’ll be in charge of this. I only care about the results.” Jyn emphasized as she stared at Ginger.
“Understood.” Ginger nodded and left promptly.
Jyn was full of confidence. She could even envision the gradual shutdown and fate of Southlake Corporation.
By then, Morrison Group would dominate the market in South Diatoran.
She wanted to leave Willow with nothing and take Caspian back
Meanwhile, Southlake Corporation was also preparing for its promotional video. However, Willow delegated this task to the department manager, Landon Rowe.
Willow couldn’t afford to handle every detail, as it would be overwhelming.
In a private room of a café, Ginger proudly pulled out a check. “Mr. Rowe, here’s 20 million. dollars. As long as you agree, all of this is yours.”
The recipient was Landon, the marketing manager of Southlake Corporation.
“Ms. Copley, what do you mean by this? Are you trying to bribe me?” Landon asked calmly.
“You can interpret it that way. So? Won’t you consider it? You just need to make a small move, and all this money will be yours,” Ginger said arrogantly.
In her eyes, 20 million dollars was more than enough to win him over. Ginger often used such. tactics and successfully bribed executives from other companies.
However, to Ginger’s surprise, Landon refused.
He crossed his arms, paying little attention to the check in front of him.
“20 million dollars is indéed not a small amount. But betraying Southlake Corporation is something I can’t do.”
20 million dollars wasn’t enough to make him betray his company. Southlake Corporation

He wouldn’t do such a foolish thing just for 20 million dollars.
Hearing Landon reject her, Ginger was surprised.
Did he think it was too little?
’30 million dollars.”
Landon remained unmoved.
40 million dollars.”
Landon was still indifferent.
“50 million dollars.”
“Ms. Copley, if you asked me out here only for this, I’ll take my leave now,” Landon said while getting up.
“100 million dollars!”
“What?” As Landon was about to leave, he stopped in his tracks. He couldn’t believe what he had heard.
“100 million dollars. As long as you can complete the task I told you, 100 million dollars is all yours.” Ginger smiled.
With that, she pulled out a brand–new check and slapped it on the table..
Landon swallowed hard as he looked at the check.
“Is it not enough? 200 million dollars.” Ginger took out another check.
Landon was utterly dumbfounded.
Had Ginger gone mad? She actually offered 200 million dollars directly.
Even with an annual salary of three to four million dollars, it would take him decades to earn 200 million dollars..
“If you don’t agree, then forget it.”
This was Ginger’s bottom line. 200 million dollars was more than enough for Landon. Ginger wouldn’t offer anything beyond that.
“I agree! I agree!” Landon hastily picked up the check.
Seeing that, Ginger smiled. Money was indeed all–powerful.
After all, it was 200 million dollars. It would take Landon two or three decades to earn that
amount.

“Mr. Rowe, you’re quite clever. It’s a pleasure to work with you,” Ginger said with a smile.
“It’s my pleasure,” Landon happily replied with the check in his hand.
Ginger smiled faintly. Now, she just needed to wait for Southlake Corporation to embarrass themselves at the press conference.

One was an international superstar, and the other was a rising star.
Tens of thousands of fans and media reporters filled the press conference venue. The scale of the event was unprecedented.
“Rebecca, you just need to make a brief appearance. Someone will protect you,” Caspian said
to Rebecca.
Rebecca nodded, fully following Caspian’s arrangements.
There might be some with malicious intentions among the enthusiastic crowd, and Rebecca’s safety needed to be ensured.
Willow felt a bit nervous. She had prepared everything, but the outcome was uncertain.
However, seeing Caspian so confident, she felt a bit calmer.
If Southlake Corporation could win this showdown against Morrison Group, they would. solidify their position.
The atmosphere at the venue was getting more and more intense.
“Everyone, please behave! Don’t push forward! We don’t want any stampede incidents when the celebrities appear!”
The security personnel at the venue couldn’t control the situation anymore. Fans were pushing forward eagerly, risking everything to catch a glimpse of their idols.
“Mia! You’ll surely win!”
“My ass. Mia is not popular anymore. Rebecca is the real winner!”
“What’s the point of arguing now? We’ll know once the conference starts.”
Fans had started arguing with each other.

“Hello, everyone. Welcome to our press conference. I’m Willow Stewart, the CEO of Southlake Corporation.” Willow smiled, introducing herself.
The audience was shocked.
The CEO of Southlake Corporation was actually such a stunning beauty.
At the same time, Morrison Group’s press conference had also started.
Ginger spoke a few words first.
“I didn’t expect such a coincidence that both companies are holding press conferences simultaneously. But we have no plans to collaborate. I hope everyone doesn’t misunderstand.”
Ginger made some casual remarks to lighten the atmosphere at the venue.
On Willow’s side, they had started preparing to play the promotional video. This was their trump card.
“Please quiet down. This is Southlake Corporation’s promotional video. It includes the introduction of our new product and some future plans. Let’s watch it together. I’m sure everyone is looking forward to it.”
