Chloe nodded in understanding. She had been glued to the news at home recently and knew about this.
This charity event was the only thing she was ever giving Wendy credit for. Initially, she started this to please her mother, but overall, she did a fantastic job, and it'd been smooth sailing since the beginning.
"There's another thing, lately a lot of artists have been expressing interest in signing with Starlight International privately, including some famous stars. I've sent the information to your email.
"But, Ms. Summers, we're not exactly rolling in resources. Infinity Media has also been actively developing its artists, and many of our artists' endorsements and events have been taken by them. Usually, they use famous stars to compete for our endorsements and events, and the brands easily choose the more famous artists.
"Infinity Media is also actively competing for other events. It seems they're not even planning on leaving us any crumbs."
Hearing this, Chloe gave a small smile. "Then let them snatch them."
Emily didn't get her meaning. "What?" She thought Chloe would have some countermeasure, but was she not planning on doing anything?
Chloe lifted her eyes to look at Emily, then turned towards the floor-to-ceiling window. She rested her hands on the armrests of her chair, her expression calm. "What do you see outside?"
Emily didn't understand her meaning, but still walked towards the window with her laptop, looked for a long time, and furrowed her brows. She completely didn't understand Chloe's meaning, but still ventured to say, "Skyscrapers?"
Chloe chuckled. "See, these buildings have different heights. The taller ones can get closer to the sun, while the lower ones can only remain in the shadows. Just like us humans, there are strong and weak people among us. To survive in this world, we need to follow the laws of survival, survival of the fittest, where only the strong dominate."
Thinking of something, Chloe's smile widened. "Notify all the artists' agents and assistants to negotiate as many endorsements or events as possible. I only have one requirement. It has to fit our artists' style."
Emily nodded, but her brows were still furrowed. "But Infinity Media will snatch them eventually."
"We just need to do our own thing. If they want to snatch everything, that's their business."
"Alright."
When Emily left, Miles was about to knock on the door. They greeted each other, then Miles entered the office.
Chloe leaned back in her chair and looked at him, a faint smile on her face. "Have you chosen the model for the competition?"
Miles didn't expect Chloe to ask so directly, so hesitated for a bit, then said, "I've found Katie..."
Chloe lifted her eyes to look at him. "Did she agree?"
Miles nodded.
Chloe was silent for a while, then said, "She made a big sacrifice for you. If it were before, she would've hidden long ago. But are you sure this is right? Making her reveal the birthmark she's always wanted to hide, this will make her receive a lot of harsh words. Have you thought about all this?"
Miles stood there, this was also what he had been worried about. Chloe saw his indecision and lowered her eyes. "Actually, it doesn't have to be Katie. With your skill, others can also do it..."
"Ms. Summers!" Miles who had been silent for a while suddenly shouted. Chloe lifted her head to look at him. "What's up?"
"Katie is not worse than anyone!"
Chloe smiled faintly. "Is that so?"
Miles' voice was full of determination. "Yes!"
Chloe scoffed, "That's just your opinion. Are you trying to force your views onto others?"
