"Send invitations to the media in Southlake City now. Invite them to the press conference," Jyn calmly said in her seat.
For this game, she had spent a considerable amount of money hiring a director to shoot a promotional video.
With Mia in the picture, Morrison Group would undoubtedly win the popularity battle.
"Okay. I'll take care of it right away." Ginger dared not dally.
"You'll be in charge of this. I only care about the results." Jyn emphasized as she stared at Ginger.
"Understood." Ginger nodded and left promptly.
Jyn was full of confidence. She could even envision the gradual shutdown and fate of Southlake Corporation.
By then, Morrison Group would dominate the market in South Diatoran.
She wanted to leave Willow with nothing and take Caspian back.
Meanwhile, Southlake Corporation was also preparing for its promotional video. However, Willow delegated this task to the department manager, Landon Rowe.
Willow couldn't afford to handle every detail, as it would be overwhelming.
In a private room of a café, Ginger proudly pulled out a check. "Mr. Rowe, here's 20 million dollars. As long as you agree, all of this is yours."
The recipient was Landon, the marketing manager of Southlake Corporation.
"Ms. Copley, what do you mean by this? Are you trying to bribe me?" Landon asked calmly.
"You can interpret it that way. So? Won't you consider it? You just need to make a small move, and all this money will be yours," Ginger said arrogantly.
In her eyes, 20 million dollars was more than enough to win him over. Ginger often used such tactics and successfully bribed executives from other companies.
However, to Ginger's surprise, Landon refused.
He crossed his arms, paying little attention to the check in front of him.
"20 million dollars is indeed not a small amount. But betraying Southlake Corporation is something I can't do."
20 million dollars wasn't enough to make him betray his company. Southlake Corporation offered excellent benefits, and as a department manager, Landon earned millions annually.
He wouldn't do such a foolish thing just for 20 million dollars.
Hearing Landon reject her, Ginger was surprised.
Did he think it was too little?
"30 million dollars."
Landon remained unmoved.
"40 million dollars."
Landon was still indifferent.
"50 million dollars."
"Ms. Copley, if you asked me out here only for this, I'll take my leave now," Landon said while getting up.
"100 million dollars!"
"What?" As Landon was about to leave, he stopped in his tracks. He couldn't believe what he had heard.
"100 million dollars. As long as you can complete the task I told you, 100 million dollars is all yours." Ginger smiled.
With that, she pulled out a brand-new check and slapped it on the table.
Landon swallowed hard as he looked at the check.
"Is it not enough? 200 million dollars." Ginger took out another check.
Landon was utterly dumbfounded.
Had Ginger gone mad? She actually offered 200 million dollars directly.
Even with an annual salary of three to four million dollars, it would take him decades to earn 200 million dollars.
"If you don't agree, then forget it."
This was Ginger's bottom line. 200 million dollars was more than enough for Landon. Ginger wouldn't offer anything beyond that.
"I agree! I agree!" Landon hastily picked up the check.
Seeing that, Ginger smiled. Money was indeed all-powerful.
