Donnie and Jessica Dole each answered a question and then left.


    Because there were loudspeakers on the scene, not only the audience present but also the guests waiting to walk the red carpet heard Donnie and Jessica Dole''s answers.


    As red carpet guests, Ban Johnson, Owen Young, and Luke Jackson naturally heard it too.


    They hadn''t expected toe to Antic City just to negotiate business with Donnie, only to be roped into bing red carpet guests; however, when they received the invitation, they didn''t refuse.


    Firstly, this was because they came to discuss a partnership with Donnie, and regardless of their attitudes, they still needed to show their friendship with Donnie, especially since Owen Young and Luke Jackson werepetitors.


    Secondly, it was a simple reason: it was an opportunity to stand out. Moreover, Donnie assured them that the host would introduce thepanies they represented when they walked the red carpet.


    Considering a program with millions of listeners, in this era, nopany would pass up such an opportunity for publicity!


    "It seems that the best oue is to invest in the Antic City Broadcast Company. Through the responses from Donnie and Jessica, I''m convinced that listeners tuning in on their radios must now see Antic City Broadcast as a very credible station!"


    Owen Young thought silently, then looked back at Luke Jackson behind him, his eyes shing with apetitive glint.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om


    Luke Jackson felt Owen Young''s gaze and returned it with one of his own.


    When the two came to Antic City together, they indeed had a briefmunication, and thismunication wasn''t insincere even though they werepetitors in this trip to Antic City.


    Their aim was the same: both wanted to invest in Antic City Broadcast, but also the same, they didn''t want to give up too much in this investment venture.


    This was simr to the situation of United Artists in Hollywood, founded by Charlie Chaplin and others.


    At that time, almost all of Hollywood''s big studios boycotted United Artists, because they knew the influence of Charlie Chaplin and the others; if allowed to grow, they would surely be a giantpeting for market share in the future.


    The market pie was only so big, and if another giant entered the fray, it would inevitably take a slice of their pie.


    Therefore, at this time, the big Hollywood studios were in tacit agreement; however, if United Artists epted investment from one of the big studios, their situation would be different.


    By now, Ban Johnson had already started walking the red carpet with Miss America, Alisa rk, the third-ce winner from the New York region.


    When the pair stepped onto the red carpet, there were cheers and also boos.


    The cheers were naturally for Alisa rk. As the third-ce winner in the New York region, Alisa rk, like the other city region Miss Americas, had arrived in Antic City a week earlier and appeared at every possible event. Not only that, but their posters were also all over public areas in Antic City.


    Therefore, Alisa rk was not unknown in Antic City; some dedicated New York supporters even traveled to Antic City to cheer her on!


    The boos were naturally directed at Ban Johnson, the impact of the ck Sox Scandal hasn''t faded, and people still harbored a lot of resentment towards Major League Baseball!


    Facing such boos, Ban inwardly smirked but kept a calm exterior. When he saw those furious people booing him, Ban Johnson knew his decision was correct.


    At noon today, Donnie and Ban Johnson had another secret meeting. In this meeting, Ban Johnson reluctantly agreed to Donnie''s partnership terms.


    For an annual exclusive broadcasting agency fee of one million, Major League Baseball''s ten-year exclusive broadcasting rights were entirely handed over to Antic City Broadcast!


    Of course, the role yed by the private hundred-thousand US Dor check Donnie offered isn''t known.


    Although he had agreed, Ban Johnson was still very unsatisfied with some of Donnie''s actions, particrly the way Donnie spoke to himst night, and he was upset about having spent the night alone.


    However, all of that changed when he saw the angry Major League Baseball fans shouting at him, as well as the fairness of Antic City Broadcast that Donnie conveyed to the public during the interview; this made Ban see this partnership as truly necessary.


    With many thoughts in mind, Ban Johnson didn''t notice the resigned look in Alisa rk''s eyes beside him.


    If it had beenst year, or next year, Alisa rk would have been delighted to be arm in arm with the chairman of Major League Baseball.


    Only this year, she couldn''t be happy—the problem stilly with the ck Sox Scandal.


    But everything was arranged, and she had no choice.


    Both preupied with their own scheming thoughts, they approached the host.
