"This Phil Dupont, I think you must already know where hees from!"


    Nucky introduced Donnie to these two people.


    Donnie knew that Harry D''Agostino woulde, but he didn''t expect someone from the DuPont Family to also arrive, "I''m very pleased to wee both of you to Antic City. I believe the beauty of Antic City will not disappoint you!"


    Harry D''Agostinoughed loudly, "Yes, I really like Antic City. It''s a beautiful city; of course, a beautiful city is always full of beautiful women!"


    "Alright, girls, you can leave now, we have some matters to discuss."


    Nucky found his jacket, which he had thrown to the ground, and took out 30 US dors from inside it, which he divided among the three beauty contestants.


    After they left, Nucky casually straightened out his clothes, and then said to Donnie, "Donnie, Harry is here to discuss with you Harding''s speech in the primary finals, as well as some of the itinerary for the finalpetition.


    Phil wants to talk to us about their sponsorship of Miss America!"


    That was the consequence of the expanded influence of Miss America.


    Originally, ording to the previous agreement, Harding was only supposed to appear at the finalpetition to present the award to the winner of the finals.


    But with the sess of the city preliminaries, Harding, heeding the advice of his campaign team, decided to speak via radio during the primary finals.


    "Donnie, I have to say, the Miss America election is truly a stroke of genius. You''ve given us an excellent new avenue for publicity!"


    In the face of Harry D''Agostino''s praise, Donnie did not take it to heart. Anyone with a slight understanding of Harding, the President of the United States, knew that his campaign manager Harry D''Agostino was a smiling tiger.


    When he needed you, he could be very enthusiastic, but when he didn''t need you anymore, to him, you were like a vagrant on the street, not even worth a nce as he passed by!


    "I''m very happy to be able to offer more help to the future Mr. President!" Donnie humbly said.


    Harry D''Agostino said earnestly, "Donnie, I''m afraid the pressure on you won''t be small during this period. Both Harding and I hope you can withstand it!"


    Increase in influence doesn''t necessarily bring only good things; it can also bring some bad.


    If Harding could see the influence of Miss America, so could the other presidential candidates. Harding''s main purpose foring this time was actually to reassure Donnie so that he wouldn''t be swayed by others.


    Donnie nodded, "Of course, but Harry, you should also know that there are some people we simply can''t afford to offend!"


    Harry D''Agostino frowned slightly, but then his expression eased, and he smiled, "The United States is a society governed by the rule ofw; no one can force anyone else to do something against their will."


    "That''s true!" Donnie first chuckled, and then suddenly changed the subject, saying with a smile, "I heard that before Mr. Harry became the campaign manager for the President, he had spent some time in the Coast Guard?"


    Harry, hearing Donnie''s words, looked at Nucky, who didn''t speak, but there was a hint of something in his eyes.


    "Of course, it just so happens that I have a good rtionship with David Thompson from the New Jersey Coast Guard. If you need it, Donnie, I will arrange for you to meet him!"


    Donnieughed heartily, "If that''s the case, then it would truly be great!"


    At present, Donnie''s private liquor business was only limited to mid-to-lower grade homemade alcohol, which restricted Donnie''s business expansion, making it difficult for him to enter the high-end liquor market.


    The main problem was that Donnie didn''t have his own connections in the Coast Guard to bring European high-end liquor to Antic City.


    If Donnie could get through to the Coast Guard, that would also cover the only shoring he had in the bootlegging industry.


    Now that Harry had taken the initiative to visit and Donnie, who had already investigated some of Harry''s background, naturally wouldn''t miss this opportunity!


    After reaching a certain understanding with Harry D''Agostino, Phil then said, shaking his wine ss, "Donnie, I mainly came to discuss our uing partnership."


    Donnie was unconcerned with Phil''s demeanor; since he was someone from the DuPont Family, a bit of pride was to be expected.


    As long as the other party was willing to bring money, everything else was easy to talk about!


    "Of course, may I know what kind of partnership Mr. Dupont is thinking about?" Donnie asked.


    Phil Dupont said, "Of course, it concerns the continuation of Miss America. We believe that you, Donnie, definitely won''t settle for just one Miss Americapetition, so General Motors would like to establish a long-term partnership with your Starry Entertainment.


    General Motors will sponsor Miss America for the next three editions of thepetition, just like this year, three hundred thousand each year!"


    Donnie''s brow furrowed slightly. Three hundred thousand dors a year in advertising costs seemed plentiful, but that was from the current perspective. As Miss America''s influence grew and more people bought radios, the influence of Miss America was sure to exceed its current status.


    In Donnie''s view, maintaining an annual advertising fee of three hundred thousand in the future would be inappropriate!


    "I''m very grateful for Mr. Dupont''s confidence!" Donnie said lightly, "Maintaining a long-term partnership with General Motors is naturally good for us, but regarding the price..."
