CHAPTER 1118 WHY ENDURE IT
The next day, something horrible happened to the Cross Group.
Nathan and Penny had just finished eating breakfast when Penny's assistant, Jenny, came rushing in. Jenny was anxious as she reported, "Something horrible has happened."
"What is it?" asked Penny immediately.
Jenny replied anxiously, "We don't know why, but the celebrities we invited to our event had cancelled at the last minute. They said that they were too busy to participate."
Penny was shocked to hear that. "How could they go back on their words like that? We can sue them for it!"
Jenny looked like she was about to cry when she said, "That is the least important thing now. The thing is, now that the celebrities are no longer coming, how will we host the event today?"
Penny instructed immediately, "Call the media companies right away and have their managers get us some celebrities. Anyone, even internet celebrities, will do.”
Jenny grinned bitterly and informed, "I've already done that, but the moment they hear our company's name, they rejected our offer. A few of them even hung up instantly."
"Huh? What is up with them? Why did they suddenly reject working with us?" asked Penny as her eyes bulged.
Nathan suggested calmly, "The media companies would not reject opportunities to make money. I'm guessing the Lindberg's had done something about it. Given their power, it would be easy for them to convince the celebrities to back out of our event. Moreover, if the Lindberg's had asked the media company to stop working with us, it is likely that those companies would be too afraid to say otherwise."
Penny was furious when she said, "The Lindberg's are such assh*les. Do they really think that they can force us to cooperate just like that?"
Penny had just finished speaking when the general manager of the company, Peggy appeared at the door. Her voice trembled as she said, "Something terrible had happened.”
"What's wrong, Peggy?" asked Penny.
Peggy was sweating when she reported, "I just received calls from the media outlets, including the TV stations and newspaper outlets. Everyone claimed that their reporters would not be able to attend our event." All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
Boom!
Peggy's words were like a lightning strike in Penny's mind.
Without the celebrities, the event would simply become less grand, but if the reporters didn't show up, the event would be meaningless.
Penny was angry when she demanded, "Where the hell are the reporters going if they aren't coming to our event?"
Peggy looked troubled when she reported softly, "I got the news that they were reassigned to another hotel to do another interview about how the Lindberg's of Brimmopolis would be investing in Horton. It seemed that they are constructing a new building. The celebrities who claimed that they were too busy to come to our event were actually going to that event as well."
Penny was stunned. She later grinned exasperatedly. "The Lindberg's of Brimmopolis really are against us. We are too weak to go against them, so we'll have to endure it."
"Peggy, Jenny, spread the news and tell everyone that our company's event will be postponed to next month."
Peggy and Jenny hadn't had a chance to speak before Nathan chuckled and said, "Why should we endure it? Moreover, why should we postpone everything by a month? A lot of cancer patients are waiting for us to sell our medicine to save their lives."
