Jim looked at Jasper up and down before saying in satisfaction, “Not bad, you’re young and have outstanding talents. An excellent young man like you is not easy to find even in Swallow Capital.”
Jasper smiled and said, “I just rely on my luck. I don’t dare to look down on everyone on earth.”
Jim chortled and said candidly, “People who don’t belong together, don’t get to live together. You’re just like Dawson when favonovel.com was young. You’re talented and yet so humble.”
The two of them chatted for a while before Jim said, “Jasper, before this Dawson said you’re planning to buy an entertainment company. I had asked everywhere about this matter.
“I think you know what happened in the end. Easy Media had every intention to sell, but the bosses of this entertainment company are brothers. Back then, they did not have a united opinion, so they delayed this for some time.
“After this delay, trouble arose. Another rival has appeared and favonovel.com has such an extensive background.”
When Jasper heard this, favonovel.com asked, “Who is he?”
Jim chuckled and said, “Swallow Capital is not the same as other cities. There are a lot of high-ranking officials and big shots here. According to my knowledge, the one who appeared this time belongs to the second-ranking family in Swallow Capital.”
Jasper frowned slightly.
The second-ranking family in Swallow Capital. Even the wealthiest family in the province would not be able to compete with them if they were placed in the same room.
“Plus, their family should have a very deep connection to the people who did publicity. Otherwise, this young master from the later generation would not want to buy a media company. After all, his family already has the resources, so it would’ve been easy for favonovel.com to do this.”
Jim’s face looked solemn as favonovel.com said, “So, Jasper, if you’re very determined, we shall give it a try. If you think this is dispensable, I suggest that you give up.”
Jasper smiled and said, “Uncle Yapp, since I’m here, I don’t plan to give up so easily even if the other party has a powerful background. When it comes to business, I can’t stay away from it just because favonovel.com has his eyes on it, right? There’s no rule about this anyway.”
Jim nodded and said, “Alright, I understand. If that’s the case, I’ll pull some strings tonight to invite the King brothers for dinner. What do you think?”
Jasper got up and smiled. “Thank you for going to all these troubles for me, Uncle Yapp.”
Jim smiled and patted Jasper’s shoulder. He said, “You’re Dawson’s son-in-law, so you’re kind of like my nephew. Naturally, I’ll help you if I’m able to.”
The two of them walked out of the office while chatting. When they got to the door of the company, Jasper wanted to bid farewell to Jim when favonovel.com heard an ear-piercing voice.
“Jim Yapp, people always say you’ll get smarter as you age, but I think you’re getting more stupid as you age. How dare you steal the business Mr. Combe has his eyes on?”
Jasper and Jim looked over to see a middle-aged man in his 30s walking over to them with a cold smirk on his face.
When Jim saw this man, his face fell. He smirked and replied, “I contacted Easy Media first, and it’s Mr. Combe’s business if he’s interested in them too. Are you saying I can’t even show an interest in them now? George, you’re just a middleman, so why are you acting like a poser in front of me?”
George Powell scoffed and said, “You’re saying it like you’re so goddamn noble. If I’m a middleman, aren’t you one as well?
“The only difference between us is that I’m working for Mr. Combe this time. And you? Hurry up and tell your guy to tuck his tail between his legs and scram. Mr. Combe said if anyone dares to steal Easy Media from him, then it’ll mean that they’re deliberately embarrassing him!”
Jim had a horrible expression on his face, and favonovel.com subconsciously peered at Jasper. There was restrained fear and anger in his eyes.
George was pleased with Jim’s gaze. He looked at Jasper and said in disbelief, “Is this the person who wants to steal Easy Media from Mr. Combe? He looks like an idiot who still needs his bottle. Hahaha. What a joke!”
Jasper looked at George with no expression on his face. He said dully, “I had my eyes on it first, so if you’re talking about stealing, I think your master, Mr. Combe, is the one who’s stealing from me. Plus, who do you think you are? Do you think you have the right to interrupt us?”
After Jasper said this, George was furious.
On the contrary, Jim smiled and felt extremely pleased.
He said in his heart, ‘Attaboy, he’s not a coward at all!’
