That is to say, Vincent perfectly demonstrated what a true prodical rich heir should be like!
As for Walker, the influence of the Astor Family allowed Walker to showcase it when Diesel Mard graduated. Diesel Mard, originally destined to join the army and be a soldier, was forced to join the Bureau of Investigation which did not yet have much authority!
"Donnie, how did this clingy guy get his sights set on you? Although I don''t think much of him, he does have some capabilities!"
Being considered capable by an opponent like Walker actually indicated that Diesel Mard truly had abilities.
Donnieughed and said, "Some people in the Federal Bureau of Investigation believe I have something to do with Ponzi''s disappearance, so they sent Diesel to investigate me!"
Walker was taken aback, "Your involvement with Ponzi''s disappearance?"
Clearly, Walker was also aware of the Ponzi scheme situation.
Donnie shook his head, "Of course not, it''s just a desperate move to find a cure!"
Walker nodded and said, "Actually, Ponzi was rather clever himself. Back in Boston, he only swindled ordinary people and never had the guts to touch any of the real upper-ss folks!"
Donnie shook his head, "That has nothing to do with me now. All I want is to get rid of this annoying guy Diesel as soon as possible, so I can concentrate all my thoughts on the Miss America pageant."
Upon hearing "Miss America," Walker''s eyes immediately lit up, "Donnie, I must say, in terms of this matter, you are truly a genius. Previously in Los Angeles, women have gonepletely crazy over it, and even some second-rate actresses have signed up to participate!"
Hearing that Walker came from Los Angeles, Donnie suddenly had an idea.
"Walker, since you were in Los Angeles before, you must have some contacts with those filmpanies there, right?"
Walker did not grasp what Donnie meant but still nodded, "Of course, I have a good rtionship with William Fox of Fox Films. Is there a problem?"
Donnie smiled and said, "Of course there''s no problem, in fact, it''s a very nice matter. If possible, I hope you can help me invite Mr. Fox to Antic City.
In return, I can not only arrange for you to sit in the VIP area during the Miss America election, but I can even arrange for you to join the Miss America selectionmittee and be one of the main judges!" Readtest chapters at mvl
Donnie had already learned from Dick Hott that Walker hade to Antic City for the grand event of Miss America!
Sure enough, as soon as Walker heard the conditions Donnie offered, he immediately excitedly agreed, "I can call William, but you will have to tell me, what do you want to invite him for?"
Donnie immediately said, "I want to invite Fox Films to create a documentary for this edition of Miss America, not only for Antic City but also for New York, Phdelphia, Los Angeles, and other ten cities."
Fox Films sounds somewhat familiar but it''s the sessor that is even more famous, being one of the major Hollywood studios, Twentieth Century Fox.
What Fox Films would develop into was actually not important to Donnie.
What mattered was the movies!
It was still the era of silent films, but movies had already be the only means of visualmunication.
Before this, Donnie had always been troubled about how to urately portray the appearance and figure of eachpetitor through text and photos alone.
But with the support of film, everything would be different.
Moreover, this could attract even more people to pay attention to the event. More attention meant more people joining the betting game Donnie had set up. With more attention, Miss America''s influence would grow evenrger, and by that time, more advertisements woulde in, and more prominent figures would need its influence!
"A documentary specifically for Miss America?"
Though Walker was somewhat clever, he still could not figure out Donnie''s n.
"Donnie, beforeing to Antic City, I already noticed that your Star Entertainment was promoting this beauty pageant in major cities across the country. Just the expenses for this promotion, I imagine, have already exceeded 200,000 US dors. And if you add the funds required for thepetition, the prize money, and post-event promotion, the total cost could reach at least 700,000 US dors.
Now you want to make a documentary for the event, too?
If you''re going to make a documentary, then you''ll have to screen it nationwide, right? All these costs together, I fear the entire Miss America pageant''s budget could reach 1 million US dors!"
Donnie naturally was aware of the cost issue. Actually, in a previous internal meeting at Starry Entertainment, his employees had already beenining to Donnie because he had almost entered a frenzy state to promote Miss America.
The promotional costs were increasing, and nearly half of the nearly 400,000 US dors collected from sponsorship and advertising fees had already been spent.
Most importantly, Miss America had not officially started yet, not even the city preliminaries!
Not just the staff of Star Entertainment, but Nucky also had several meetings with Donnie because of this event!
"You don''t need to worry about the costs, I will find a way to solve that. Walker, if you can bring William Fox here, then you will be the most honored guest in Antic City!"
