Chapter 1019
In today's fast-paced entertainment world, Elodie's artists stood out. They weren't just pretty faces thrust into the limelight overnight. These talents had honed their skills over years of rigorous training. Each one was unique, both in looks and personality, making them easily distinguishable from the sea of other entertainers.
Adler, feeling cornered, vented, "I've tried everything, but their tactics just keep coming. Our old advertisers are now flocking to them because of their aggressive marketing and lower costs for newbies. It's hit S Corporation's ad revenue hard. Even our commercial district is plastered with ads for Reeves International's fresh faces. Isn't that just giving them free publicity?"
Jenna sighed, "What can we do? Their artists are hot right now. It's only natural advertisers would go for them. We can't exactly ban them from advertising."
Sophie chimed in, "Advertisers chase trends. These newcomers are not only the current craze but also cheaper. While Reece is a superstar, not every advertiser has the budget for a big-name endorsement." "So, what's the plan? We can't just slash Reece's fees. That would kill his market value."Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
Elodie had orchestrated her moves perfectly, cornering S Corporation into what seemed like a no-win situation.
Even though S Corporation had talents groomed by Aldridge Global, their rivals had twenty-eight seasoned artists and idols.
The public's hunger for new and exciting acts meant the sudden influx of these well-rounded entertainers was a tough blow for S Corporation.

While Adler and Jenna were frazzled, Reece stayed quiet.
Sophie turned to him, "Reece, do you have a plan?"
All eyes were on Reece.
"I'm not a business expert; I'm just an artist," Reece started. "The entertainment world has lots of unwritten rules. Sure, Reeves
Entertainment has some artists net
who've hit it big recently, helping their whole group get better gigs. But I've seen their schedules-they're working nonstop, 365 days a year."
Sophie frowned, "So, what are you getting at?"
"What I mean is, even though they've blown up in popularity, they're still human, not machines. With less than three hours of sleep a night and constant high-pressure marketing, those boy bands, girl groups, and actors are pushed to their limits daily without breaks. If they keep this up, they'll burn out in less than two months."
Adler was stunned, "Wow, even a workhorse wouldn't survive that! Elodie's really pushing them too hard."
Jenna looked puzzled, "But... Elodie isn't stupid. She must know this pace is unsustainable. Why would she set it up like this?"
