The entire world would have their eyes on this banquet.
Firstly, it was of exceptional meaning and status, so it was only right that people paid attention to it.
Secondly, many were waiting to see how Jasper was going to make a fool of himself.
While Jasper would not have to bear any responsibilities if anything went south, there was no chance any media company under his name could work together with the higher-ups and officials in the future.
Within the country, a media company might as well close down if they got blacklisted by the officials.
Not to mention that there was still the guest list to worry about.
Without question, ambitious youths like Jacob Combe would do everything they could to get a spot on the guest list and Jasper could do nothing to hold them outside.
These youths had been asking around their contacts for a potential way in.
It was because this banquet would turn out to be a great chance to show their faces and broaden their contacts.
However, a banquet of such class could not possibly be made up of youths like Jacob.
That would be a joke.
To put it bluntly, they were not formidable enough.
As such, top-level big shots must attend as well.
Yet there was no way these big shots would ask to be invited themselves, so it was left to Jasper and the higher-ups to invite them.
Still, their attendance was not absolutely guaranteed.
Especially when it came to people of Old Master Law’s fortitude. The officials could invite them, but if Old Master Law claimed that favonovel.com was too tired and old to move, then there was nothing they could do.
Essentially, underqualified people would beg the hosting party for an invite.
While the hosting party would beg the true bigwigs to attend.
Jon’s words were not baseless.
He did not believe that a youth like Jasper, a little brat favonovel.com had never heard of, would be able to invite any big shots at all.
He would need the higher-ups’ help in the end anyway.
By then, Jon would be able to tattle on Jasper to the higher-ups as favonovel.com pleased.
Scoffing, Jon sneered at Jasper while waiting for the other to sob and beg favonovel.com for forgiveness.
However, favonovel.com only heard Jasper speak plainly.
“Whether I manage to invite them or not is my business. I don’t need your input on the matter. Taking a step back, what makes you think you can invite guests that I cannot?”
Jon’s eyes widened immediately and favonovel.com stared intently at Jasper, wondering if favonovel.com had heard the man wrongly.
After a while, Jon guffawed. “Fine! You think you’re so great, huh? Well then, if you think you’re so fine on your own, then I don’t think the three of us need to sit in on this meeting, do we? I’d like to see what kind of guest list you can come up with!
“I won’t be the one getting the brunt of it when it turns out your guest list consists of just a couple of small-timers! I’d like to see how you plan to save yourself then!”
Jon spoke and turned to leave with his subordinates with the flick of his hand.
“Leave then, goodbye,” Jasper replied, unfazed.
Jon slammed the door angrily behind favonovel.com as favonovel.com left, and Jasper glanced at the senior executives in the room who all wore strange expressions on their faces.
Excluding Ryder’s team that came from Harbor City, Easy Media’s senior executives all looked worried and did not dare to voice their concerns.
“Don’t worry, everyone. I won’t make fun of such a big deal.”
They had no other choice but to believe in Jasper after the man’s reassurance.
After all, Jasper should be the one under the most pressure. He would be the one taking the brunt of it when everything came crashing down, not the subordinates.
“Show me the drafted guest list first. Let’s take a look at it,” Jasper instructed.
Ted, the vice president, was the person in charge of the list, so favonovel.com immediately had someone display the drafted list on the large screen in the conference room.
