Some were celebrities from Harbor City, and their expressions turned curious when they saw Jasper
and Stephen talking.
The entire Harbor City entertainment industry knew of Stephen’s situation, but no one had expected
him to ask Jasper for help.
“Frankly speaking, I’ve sought them out before. Most of them just rejected me on the spot in hopes that
I would star in their films instead. But I want to make my own films,” Stephen spoke sincerely.
“How much do you want?” Jasper asked.
“Huh?”
The question caught Stephen off guard and he was stunned speechless. He looked at Jasper in
confusion.
Jasper repeated himself, “You wanted my investment, did you not? How much?”
“I… I’ll need at least 10 million US Dollars, but I can give you half of my company’s shares in return,”
Stephen mustered the courage to speak.
“Deal.”
That single word shocked both Scarlet and Ted, let alone Stephen.
‘Is this how rich people acted nowadays?
‘They’ll drop 10 million US Dollars the way ordinary people spend 1 buck?’
“Let’s do it this way. Ted, you’ll be in charge of this transaction. Easy Media will pay the money and the
shares will fall under Easy Media.
“Stephen’s company will be Easy Media’s first foothold in Harbor City’s film industry to test the waters.
However, keep the priority on the Mainland’s film industry. After all, the Mainland’s the bigger market–
Harbor City’s is too small.” Jasper turned to Ted.
“Alright, Mr. Laine,” Ted quickly nodded.
He knew that Jasper was giving him a chance.
“Alright, then you’ll be in contact with Ted from now on,” Jasper shook Stephen’s hand and said with a
smile.
“Thank you, Mr. Laine. But I have to ask Mr. Laine, aren’t you going to review my company first? What
if I’m… scamming you?” Stephen asked unable to hide the curiosity bubbling within him.
He had not hoped to get anything out of a fifteen-minute talk, much less expect a deal to be completed
in less than five minutes.
All that had transpired was a quick conversation with Stephen answering a handful of Jasper’s
question. Yet, that was all it took to receive a 10 million US Dollar investment. Stephen wondered if this
was reality or if he was merely dreaming.
“You wouldn’t.” Jasper smiled meaningfully.
“Nor do you dare.”
Stephen understood. ‘Indeed, who didn’t know about Jasper in Harbor City?
‘So what if Jasper was a Mainlander? No one in Harbor City dared to claim that they could afford
offending Jasper.
‘One would first have to look toward the Law family name and determine if they were strong enough to
overpower them.’
‘Even the entertainment industry that is very discriminative to Mainlanders has no choice but to accept
the new reality in Jasper entering the industry and taking a large portion of the market share. In a world
like this, what can small fries like us even hope to achieve?’
“Alright, I’ll have to get going now. Please enjoy yourselves,” Jasper spoke.
He turned and coincidentally came face to face with a few celebrities from Harbor City, including A-line
superstars like Superstars Kong and Lynch.
“Hello, Mr. Laine.”
Superstars stood on both sides of the aisle as they greeted him politely.
“Hello,” Jasper returned the greeting with a smile.
“Now that’s how a successful man looks,” Scarlet murmured as she stared at Jasper’s glowing figure.
“Yeah. How can an ordinary person compare with that?” Stephen smiled wryly.
