After the tension, the crowd started to guffaw.

“Haha, Jordan, you’re such a braggart. You’re going to make sure Idol Creation Camp can’t go on? Do you know how much money has been invested in this program? Do you really think you can decide if it gets to be run or not?”

“That’s right, it’s just a far-fetched dream of yours! All the artistes from these 58 companies have already taken part and it’s safe to say that we represent the power of the entire local industry. Who would dare to go against us and who has the power to do that?”

“Jordan, even if you are a billionaire, you can’t possibly do that. Besides, you’re now a penniless man whose mobile payment accounts have been frozen too. Hahaha…”

“Haha, restore your bank account before you talk big, punk!”

Seeing that the crowd did not believe him, Jordan picked up his phone and dialed a phone number.

“Hey, the program ‘Idol Creation Camp ‘is a really unhealthy program that has many practices that violate the rules. Cancel this program.”

After saying that, Jordan hung up the phone and continued smoking his cigar. However, after Jordan pretended and bragged, those people didn’t buy it and simply burst into laughter!

“Hahahahaha… I’m laughing my ass off. Jordan, how dare you still pretend in front of us!?!”

“Hahaha!”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“This young man is such a braggart. I almost got convinced by him.”

Jordan laughed at everyone but he remained calm. “Oh, is that so? I’ve only met him once but I can’t remember clearly.”

Jordan was still behaving like a big boss as if the person he was speaking to was just a small fry whose name he shouldn’t have to remember.

Alex couldn’t help but say, “If you can command them, I’ll call you Daddy today! You’re just a braggart!”

Among all the people present, Alex was the one who knew Jordan the best. He knew that although the Steeles were wealthy, most of their assets and power were abroad. Locally, their strength in all aspects was simply inferior to the Howards.

Alex was certain that Jordan definitely didn’t have any power in the country!

Jordan took a sip of wine and shot Alex a contemptuous glance. “Since you’re going to call me Daddy, don’t forget to call Lauren ‘Mommy’ when you see her.”

“You…” Alex was infuriated. “What if you can’t do it? Are you going to let us just sit here and wait?”

Jordan calmly held his glass of wine and said, “Just wait a little. The news will be announced soon.”

Indeed, after twenty minutes, a piece of news made it to the list of trending topics on Twitter.

“Idol Creation Camp” was taken down for rectification due to a violation of rules!

Since it was a coincidence that Jordan invited Jenny and the contestants of “Idol Creation Camp’, the girls got the news and scurried over.

Each of them grabbed their respective bosses’ arms and said to them sobbingly, “Boss, bad news. The show has been canceled. What do we do? Ah… Am I never going to get famous?”

Mr. Benson, the president of Hoffer Entertainment, got a great shock and immediately took out his phone to check, only to see the news that had just been released.

“To improve the quality of the content of online variety shows, curb the spread of false and fake content, and create a clean cyberspace, we’ve decided to cancel several online variety shows, including ‘Idol Creation Camp’. Multiple violations of rules have occurred during the filming of Idol Creation

Camp…”

‘Mr. Benson’s jaw dropped. In just twenty short minutes, Jordan managed to cancel the variety program, “Idol Creation Camp”, which had garnered countless investments!

Mr. Benson looked at Jordan with a combination of incredulity and surprise. “How… how did you manage to do it!?!”

Alex was shocked to see the contents displayed on his phone screen too. “Impossible! You don’t make sense at all! Only the Howards…”

At this moment, Lauren happened to receive a call from his grandfather, Martin.

“Hello, Grandpa.”

“Alex, where are you?”

“Tm in… Houston.”

“Are you attending the banquet hosted by your brother-in-law?”

“Yes, I’m with Jordan.”

“Give Woody Media to Jordan. That crappy company of yours isn’t worth much anyway.”

“Grandpa…”

Alex was indignant and reluctant but he couldn’t disobey his grandfather either.

At this moment, Alex came to a sudden realization. “I know, Jordan must have just called my grandfather! It’s my grandfather who is secretly helping him!”

Alex’s conjecture was right, as Jordan had indeed called Martin just now. Given Martin’s strength and status, all it would take for him to get an online variety program canceled was a simple request.

“Ugh, Jordan Steele actually had the guts to use the Howards’ power to blow his trumpet here!”

Alex gritted his teeth forcefully. He couldn’t understand why his grandfather would help Jordan out!

Jordan watched Alex get up and he asked, “Why? Are you going to call me Daddy now?”

Alex humphed coldly. He wasn’t even willing to call Jordan his brother-in-law, let alone Daddy!

Deliberately ignoring Jordan, Alex got up and walked straight on stage.

Facing the crowd, Alex said, “Everyone, I’m Alex Howard, president of Woody Entertainment. I declare that Woody Entertainment is officially joining J Films as a subsidiary.”

Seeing that Alex had also compromised, the other 55 company owners lost their composure too.

“Even the Howards’ grandson has bowed down to Jordan, what should we do? Should I join them or not?”

“Mr. Steele didn’t ask for any shares or money from us anyway. We just have to change our company name. Once we do, we can even cooperate with Hollywood. Of course we should join!”

“Yes, yes, Mr. Steele, I’m going to work with you from now on!”

“Me too! I’m coming too!”

The bosses of these small companies got up, walked to the stage, and announced their companies to be subsidiaries of J Films.

In the end, everyone got up except Mr. Benson of Hoffer Entertainment.

Mr. Benson was worth tens of billions of dollars, and also the richest one. As the leader of the local entertainment agencies, he wasn’t willing to just sell himself to others.

When Keith saw that Mr. Benson was the only one who didn’t join, he spoke up for Jordan and persuaded him, “Mr. Benson, now that the entertainment industry belongs to Mr. Steele, you should be aware of Mr. Steele’s strength. Why don’t you join us?”

Mr. Benson looked at Jordan and said, “Mr. Steele has money and connections. I’m indeed inferior in terms of that but this can only prove that you come from a good family background. I may be rich but I hate money the most. I won’t bow down for money.

“If you want to convince me, you must earn my respect in other aspects!”
