American TV series: Starting with exploiting young Sheldon

"Really?" Regina wiped her face with a mysterious smile and said, "Just to be on the safe side, could you check how the rehearsal went?"

As she spoke, the girl pulled up the other two members of the group and began performing the theme song of their new album in the room.

I have to say, this song is actually pretty catchy...

On the other hand, Kate, who was content to be a canary, felt that she had learned another trick after seeing the live performance of the Devil Body Group.

Before long, Mike was pounced on the sofa by "Rose".

……

Chapter 511 Expanding the Team

“Mr. Mike, I’m sorry, I didn’t know those gossip newspapers would fabricate stories about you and Kate just because of a few words I said…”

On the phone, director Cameron kept apologizing.

The reason for this was that he had taken it upon himself to leak some inside information in order to promote his new movie.

The truth couldn't be kept secret forever; the fact that Mike had become the sole investor in the new Titanic movie quickly became known to various newspapers.

A dedicated newspaper even uncovered the identities of Mike the Man in Black and the owner of the King Corporation.

At this point, both Mike and the Titanic were considered to have achieved a win-win situation.

Before long, the media's attention turned to Mike and the movie's leading lady, Kate, since scandalous news is more likely to attract attention.

Thus, Mike's public image gradually transformed from that of a young and wealthy business owner into that of a powerful playboy.

While director James Cameron's initial intentions were good, things have clearly gotten a bit out of control.

So, he felt he should apologize to Mike before things got worse.

"playboy?"

Looking down at the four girls moving about in front of him, Mike didn't seem to mind the way the media had given him.

Whether you're a boss or a playboy, as long as you can generate buzz and increase your fame, that's all that matters.

Afterwards, Mike stroked Kate's upturned face, showering her with affection for a moment, before saying into the phone, "My relationship with Kate is completely innocent; there's nothing I can't say."

The relationship between the sugar daddy and the canary is perfectly innocent.

"I don't believe you!" Cameron thought to himself on the other end of the phone, but said "honestly" aloud, "I believe you, Mr. Mike, but the media might deliberately try to ruin your and Kate's reputation."

"So, I was thinking, how about we hold a press conference on the fly and clarify your relationship with Ms. Kate to our friends in the media?"

Now that Michael and the new Titanic movie are showing signs of gaining momentum, organizing a press conference would definitely generate buzz.

As for the content of the press conference, that's secondary. Didn't you hear Director Cameron say that everyone who came that day was a media "friend"?

“OK, you arrange the press conference, and the company will cover the funding and venue.” After a moment’s thought, Mike agreed to Cameron’s proposal.

It has to be said that when it comes to creating something truly amazing, it has to be a seasoned veteran like director Cameron.

Jesse's PR team isn't working hard enough right now, so Mike has to rely on Cameron for the time being.

"Understood, boss. The press conference will definitely satisfy you." Meeting such a straightforward investor as Mike, Director Cameron's tone on the other end of the phone became a bit lighter.

……

After hanging up the phone, Mike looked down at the four girls beneath him again. He hadn't forgotten that the four girls had been causing trouble while he was on the phone.

Seeing that Mike's gaze was "unfriendly," Regina and the others, who had gotten the better deal, wanted to leave.

"Trying to run now? Too late~" Mike grinned wickedly as he reached out and grabbed Regina, who was jumping the most enthusiastically.

……

While buying a villa in the suburbs has many inconveniences, it has one advantage: the open space is perfect for taking advantage of the available space.

More than an hour later, apart from Mike still standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window admiring the beautiful view, the four girls, who had eaten and drunk their fill, all fell asleep from exhaustion.

The girls' behavior can be summarized as: incompetent, yet fond of playing.

Just then, the phone Mike had left on the sofa rang again.

"MJ, what's up?" Mike answered the phone.

“I’ve thought it through, I want to join your agency. But if possible, I’d like to partner with the company by taking a stake.” MJ’s voice came from the other end of the phone.

Judging from his past actions, MJ actually had a good business sense.

Three years ago, after leaving Motown Records, he invested 50 million to establish EP Studio. During this time, he also made a huge investment to buy all of Elvis Presley's music copyrights with his forward-thinking vision.

In addition to his own hit albums, MJ now earns a considerable amount of money every year just from royalties.

"Investment? No problem. I'll convert your EP studio into cash. As for how many shares of King Management it can be exchanged for, we'll discuss that in person on the day of the signing." Mike agreed to MJ's request.

For King's Brokerage to grow rapidly in a short period of time, it needs mature channels and a team.

And just like that, Mike got his wish.

While MJ's EP studio wasn't great at public relations, it was absolutely top-notch in terms of promotion and sales.

Having such a ready-made team is a godsend for Kings Brokers.

MJ's side had no objection to Mike's proposal to exchange the studio for shares.

"By the way, I'm curious, why did you suddenly decide to join my agency? I heard that Sony offered quite a lot to win you over." After chatting for a bit, Mike asked the question that had been bothering him.

There are no secrets in the entertainment industry, and it's no secret that Sony is now trying to recruit Michael Jackson.

Moreover, the fact that Sony Music dared to make such a big fuss clearly shows that they came prepared and were determined to succeed.

However, it seems they have failed.

“Why did I choose you? Didn’t you already say before that we’re friends?” MJ said half-jokingly. “Besides, with your current status and assets, I believe you wouldn’t even look at my little fortune. So, I feel very comfortable cooperating with you.”

It has to be said that MJ's personality had a touch of naivety, and sometimes he was like a big kid. It was a good thing to be considered a friend by him.

"Alright, since you trust me so much, I'll give you some preferential treatment when we sign the contract," Mike replied with a smile.

It turns out that emotions are contagious.

A good mood always makes those around you feel relaxed and happy without you even realizing it.

With the Kings' agency facing a severe shortage of resources, a business collaboration between Michael and MJ was quickly put on the agenda.

Ultimately, MJ Studios used all its resources to acquire 12 percent of Kings Entertainment's billion-dollar assets at a discounted price.

Thus, MJ happily became Mike's business partner.

A superstar like MJ switching to a management company is definitely big news, the kind that warrants a press conference.

So soon after, the press conference for MJ's switch to a management company and the press conference for the new Titanic movie were brought together by King's Entertainment.

This press conference, backed by Michael Jackson and director James Cameron, instantly ignited the enthusiasm of many media outlets.

Reporters from newspapers and radio stations of all sizes were captivated.

On the day of the press conference, Mike, as the leader of both teams, unsurprisingly took the center position.

Beside him were Kate and a group of stunningly beautiful women.

Yes, the three girls from the "Devil Body Group," who are senior colleagues of MJ's company, also made an appearance at the press conference.

Commonly known as: riding the coattails of a trending topic.

At the subsequent press conference, MJ and director Cameron, the two "parties involved," skillfully handled questions from reporters from all sides.

Throughout the press conference, both of them put in a lot of effort and achieved their goals.

As for Mike, the big boss, he didn't say much during the press conference, but with his good looks and status, he undoubtedly became one of the highlights of the event.

As soon as the press conference ended, King's Entertainment took advantage of the buzz and began the official promotion of the new movie.

The girl group with their amazing figures, who had already been itching to make a comeback, were arranged by their company to perform their new song "My Heart Will Go On" on various television stations.

……

Chapter 512 The Publicity Team Takes Action (Happy New Year!)

With the addition of the EP promotion team, King's Entertainment's promotion team quickly absorbed the experience of the old team.

They began systematically promoting the new film in multiple cities.

In addition, there was Mike, a boss who was generous with publicity, endorsing them.

A month later, through a barrage of publicity in newspapers, radio, posters and other means, director James Cameron's new film Titanic gradually became a topic of conversation among people.

Incidentally, Mike, the film investor, and the girl group with amazing figures who sang the theme song for the new movie, also became topics of conversation.

As people discussed the matter, the rumors about Mike and the three beautiful girls from the "Devil Body Group" also became a hot topic.

In short, Mike has completely cemented his reputation as a playboy.

Of course, someone was also enjoying it.

Because of his rapidly rising popularity, Mike now receives varying amounts of faith points, or worship points, every day.

Little by little, over the course of a month, my faith points increased by nearly 100,000.

The feeling of improving one's strength while sitting at home is much better than Mike having to go out and collect energy orbs.

And this is just the beginning. As Mike's fame grows, the amount of faith power he receives will only increase.

It is foreseeable that Mike's abilities have also entered a period of rapid development.

And just like that, more than two months passed by in the blink of an eye.

During this period, King's Entertainment continued to generate buzz for Cameron's new film through various channels.

This has certainly raised public expectations.

Meanwhile, on Peggy's side, after half a year of hard work, her online community platform finally started to show promise.

Although online promotion is still immature, its wide reach is undeniable.

Therefore, Mike's name, along with news of Cameron's new movie, spread to every household via the internet.

Against this backdrop, the King's Tower, located between Wall Street and Broadway, also received news of its completion.

Although the King's Building is now called a building, in Mike's plan, it should be called a manor.

Moreover, Mike, who was already quite wealthy, also bought a large amount of land around the building, aiming to create a quiet oasis amidst the hustle and bustle.

“Your private mansion is so cool, especially the statue on the roof…” MJ, who was invited to the welcome ceremony at the King’s Mansion, looked at the magnificent building complex in front of him and said enviously, “I’ve decided that I also want to build my own manor in this style. It will not only have my statue, but also all kinds of amusement facilities.”

"Then, I can invite lots of kids to come and play with me... We'll call it Neverland Ranch..." After imagining it, MJ looked at Mike and asked, "What do you think?"

Here we must mention that although MJ was over thirty, he still had a childlike heart.

This personality trait makes him prefer to be with innocent and kind children.

Moreover, he has made a lot of money in the record market over the years, probably around 500 to 600 million, which is more than enough to build a manor solely for entertainment.

As Mike listened to MJ's vision, his expression grew increasingly complicated. He retorted, "How could you have such an idea? I mean, all that effort is just to let the kids play at your ranch."

"Don't you know that doing this will make you look strange?"

Copper smelting is a very sensitive topic.

Since MJ was to his liking, Mike felt it was necessary to give him some pointers.

“This…” Some things don’t need to be said too obviously. Realizing what was going on, MJ broke out in a cold sweat and explained like a child who had made a mistake: “I just want children who are unhappy in their lives to have a happy childhood. As for the question you raised, I haven’t thought about it.”

As a public figure, sometimes the media and the public don't care what you think; some just want to generate buzz, while others simply follow the crowd.

Therefore, MJ almost made a "big mistake" because of his unintentional thoughts.

“It’s fine for you to pity those children who are unhappy in life. There are many ways to help them: for example, to set up a targeted fund, or to build a few public amusement parks in your own name and let those children play for free…” Mike, who rejected MJ’s idea, offered him two feasible solutions.

It must be said that MJ was actually a very nice person in private.

His latest album was originally scheduled for release this summer, but after it clashed with the movie collaboration album of the Devil Body Group, he voluntarily postponed the album release plan.

For that reason alone, he deserves Mike's extra help.

"I understand, I'll consider your suggestion." Realizing the seriousness of the problem, MJ accepted Mike's offer.

Just as the two were finishing their private conversation, director James Cameron, who had also been invited to the welcome ceremony at the King's Building, walked over.

"Our handsome and wealthy Mike, everyone's waiting for you to take a picture with him." As the new film project progresses, director Cameron's relationship with Mike has become more harmonious, so he speaks much more casually and can even crack a little joke occasionally.
