Chapter 841
“Now introducing the ambassador of our medicine, Zabrina Yalden!” On the site of the press conference, the host had already commenced the ceremony.
“Zabrina, hurry up and go onstage!” Hadley urged her.
Zabrina glanced at Chuck with her beautiful eyes as if she was apologizing. She did not expect Hadley to be so disrespectful to Chuck.
Chuck simply shrugged and said, “It’s your turn.”
“Yes.” Then, Zabrina began to ascend the stage while all eyes were fixated on her.
“Which company are you from?” As soon as Zabrina left, Hadley questioned.
“Oh, I’m not from any company!” replied Chuck.
“You’re not from any company yet you’re talking about making a big investment? You must be a scammer. I’ve seen too many people like you. Go lie to someone else and stay away from Zabrina in the future! If I see you talking nonsense again, I’ll get someone to deal with you!” Hadley spat in annoyance. He refused to be civil to a swindler like Chuck.
“You’ll get someone to deal with me?” Chuck echoed indifferently.
“That’s right, you’d better behave appropriately… Ah! Hello, Miss Lane!” Just then, Hadley spotted Yolanda coming down from above. He smiled and greeted her, paying Chuck no attention at all. She was a big shot!
As Zabrina’s agent, he knew that Yolanda had managed several industries as a manager. Her boss was also the investor of Zabrina’s last movie. She was incredibly rich! The endorsement allowance for the ambassador of the medicine was no small sum. As the pharmaceutical company was a big client who had cooperated with them for a long time, he could not offend her.
“Hello!” Yolanda greeted casually.
Hadley wanted to get on her good side. But when he tried to, Yolanda stopped him, saying, “Hold on!”
“Okay!” Hadley responded simply, thinking that Yolanda had something else to do! To his surprise, Yolanda approached Chuck.
“You only have to go onstage for a while later. After all, you’re the boss. You can say whatever you want and it’ll be fine,” Yolanda suggested. A press conference was very important! It would be fine to let everyone know the boss behind the scenes.
“I guess I still count as one!” Chuck mused. He was not used to being under the spotlight, or being on the covers of newspapers and the media. It was something Chuck did not enjoy. So, on such an occasion, it was enough for Yolanda to go onstage on behalf of him.
“Alright.” What else could Yolanda do? Chuck had always kept a low profile.
“Miss Lane, he… He’s the boss?” Hadley overheard their conversation. His face had turned a little pale. It turned out that Chuck was the real big shot.
“Yes, that’s right. This is my boss, Chuck. What’s the matter?” Yolanda enquired.
“Nothing.” Hadley’s face took on an unpleasant expression. While his mouth was wearing a smile, it was uglier than a grimace.
“Mr. Cannon, I’m sorry about earlier. I thought…” How could he have known that such a big shot would keep such a low profile?
“Oh. Do you want to teach someone like me from a small movie company a lesson?” Chuck responded nonchalantly.
“It’s not like that, Mr. Cannon. Listen, I just…” Hadley’s smile grew more unsightly.
Only then did Yolanda understand. Her expression was no longer kind. “Hadley, my boss, Chuck invested in Zabrina’s film. The product she’s endorsing now is the product from Chuck’s pharmaceutical factory. After cooperating twice, it seems that you are disinterested in cooperating any longer?”
“No, I didn’t mean that!” Hadley’s face turned pale. If the contract was terminated because of him, how could he, a small agent, handle the responsibility?
“Then what do you mean? You even wanted to teach my boss a lesson? Hmph. Today, I’ll call the Big Boss of your agency!” Yolanda warned coldly.
“No! Miss Lane! Mr. Cannon!” Hadley’s tears leaked out from the corners of his eyes. He was in immense fear. If Big Boss found out about this, he would definitely lose his job as a manager!
“It’s too late!” Yolanda decided bluntly.
Hadley’s face was pale and his heart was filled with despair!
Meanwhile, Chuck and Yolanda continued to watch. The whole press conference turned out to be very successful! The pharmacist’s explanation paired with Zabrina’s popularity compelled many merchants to place orders. It could be considered a great success!
“Chuck, one boss has ordered thirty million products! Another has ordered ten million products. Other bosses have altogether placed orders of almost three hundred million products today! It’s so popular! This medicine is an instant hit!” Yolanda had been waiting for that outcome all along.
The success of the press conference meant that this new medicine had gained instant popularity! There were so many orders that they wouldn’t even be able to produce enough.
Chuck felt at ease. After working hard for so long, he finally had something in return. After that, they would take over the country’s market before distributing their product to the rest of the world. Their annual revenue would be incredibly lucrative!
“We’ll start building the lab tomorrow to develop new medicines. The factory should increase the production rate as well. I’ll get Betty to export the goods to other countries to sell,” instructed Chuck.
Karen’s industry spanned across the world too. There are lots of pharmacies to which they could directly supply their goods. In that way, their turnover would be fast.
“Okay, I’ll do that next!” Yolanda has also planned and made the necessary preparation. Therefore, Chuck could be rest assured that Yolanda would take care of the matter. There were so many people around the world, so it would be amazing if they could occupy one-third of the market.
Chuck was also looking forward to the establishment of his business empire! “Right, we should start planning for the movie company. I have a plan for a superhero movie where we can let Zabrina act as the heroine. I’ll make a ten-year layout and invest ten billion dollars in it! This big project has to be handled well! I’ll look for a talented professional to work as the chief producer!” announced Chuck. He had to venture into the film industry. It was a lucrative source of income. Hence, Chuck decided he must earn as much as he can from it.
Yolanda was stunned to hear that. Nevertheless, she replied, “Okay, I’ll start planning for the movie company tomorrow! I’ll start preparing for the movie too.”
“Yes!”
When Hadley heard those words, regret filled his entire being. Ten billion dollars was an astounding sum of investment! It was a huge investment!
Chuck knew that there would be a celebration party later, so he just wanted to eat a bit.
“Zabrina, apologize to Mr. Cannon for me. I really didn’t mean it,” Hadley begged Zabrina.
“It won’t be good for me to say it. He is my boss too. Do you still expect Chuck to forgive you after speaking to him like this?” After saying that, Zabrina went to have a talk with Chuck. She was really interested in the movie that Chuck had proposed.
Hadley was extremely remorseful. Soon, he received a call from the Big Boss. Within ten seconds, he began to sob. “Big Boss, don’t fire me. Please don’t. I know I was wrong. Big Boss…” In response, his boss hung up the phone.
The press conference was a success. Just as Chuck had expected, many news outlets reported about Zabrina endorsing the medicine the next day.
On the Internet, there were also some people who were curious so they tried using it. They were convinced about the effect of the medicine. Consequently, they became voluntary spokespeople advertising for the medicine! The Internet had even coined the product as “Godly Medicine”! It really blew up right away!
Within three days, Chuck’s pharmaceutical factory had received over five billion orders! In the meantime, more and more things were being set up. Chuck asked Yolanda to expand the factory immediately! They had to keep up the production! After all, Chuck planned to earn a hundred billion through the sales of that medicine! Nevertheless, that product would be one of his many medicinal products as there were new products lined up one after another, waiting to sell out right away!
Chuck could see the hope of his commercial empire! At the same time, good news came saying that Nancy had completed the construction on the gambling chain too. Besides that, Chuck had purchased more than a hundred jewelry stores in the past in a massive investment. Finally, the products were on the market!
Chuck hadn’t forgotten about Zabrina. He asked her to endorse the jewelry from his jewelry store! As a popular celebrity, the number of visitors Zabrina brought was huge!
The popularity of the medicine and Zabrina’s second endorsement brought a huge number of people to Chuck’s jewelry stores! As for the jewelry, it also made a crazy amount of profit! Chuck’s business empire was slowly starting to form.
