Life at The Top novel Chapter 1382

“It’s Fabian,” Jasper said flatly.

Ryder’s voice paused for a while on the other end of the phone.

Obviously, Ryder, who had stayed in Harbor City for so long, could already be considered as someone from the upper class circle. Because of this, he was not unfamiliar with that name.

With a bitter chuckle, Ryder said, “Mr. Laine, if it’s him, I’m afraid only you can settle this.”

“I know Fabian will do something, but his speed and aggression surprised me. He’s truly a young master from the Atticus family. He’s so different from the ordinary people.”

Ryder could detect the complimentary tone in Jasper’s words, hence, he said sullenly, “Mr. Laine, we’re losing money with every minute that passes. Also, if we don’t take care of this soon, the company’s reputation will be greatly affected.

“You should know that the artists make money from their reputation. If they don’t have any publicity for a very long time, even the most popular artists will lose their jobs. How are you still in the mood to mock him?”

Jasper chuckled and said, ‘Don’t worry. This is not a big deal, yet you’re already so anxious.”

“Do you already have a solution, Mr. Laine?” Ryder said in shock.

Jasper explained patiently, “According to our long term plan, we will abandon the market in Harbor City sooner or later.

“There’s nothing left in this market anymore anyway. It’s not stagnant yet, but the entertainment industry in Harbor City can’t support so many artists anymore.”

“Because of this, we’ve always been targeting the market in the mainland ever since the company was founded.”

“Total annihilation by Fabian’s hand right now might not be a bad thing. It’s just in time to prompt us and our artists to completely shift over to the mainland market.”

“There’s only one plan. If the cinemas in Harbor City won’t screen our movies, then we won’t go to them. What’s the use of those tens of millions of viewers in Harbor City? When are we supposed to make money if rely solely on them?”

“We should go to the cinemas in the mainland. Right now, the cinemas in the mainland lack high quality movies so you don’t have to worry about underperforming in terms of ticket sales.”

“If they don’t give us a venue for our productions, then we’ll do it in the mainland.”

“If they won’t endorse our artists, then we’ll go get endorsements from the businesses in the mainland. You can go and read up on the branches of JW. We’re all on the same team so it’s going to be much easier to negotiate these things.”

“The artists in Harbor City are more well known than the ones in the mainland. Moreover, they have more fans too. As long as the price is right, they’ll know what to choose.”

“In short, if Fabian won’t let us do business in Harbor City, then we won’t do it. We’ll do it in the mainland. After all, the mainland has more clientele and can provide us with a brighter future. Yes, Harbor City is Fabian’s territory, but he has no say when it comes to the alternative.”
