Chapter 527: I Need Resources
"Young Manager Sloan, it seems you’ve grown quite a bit!"
The old Lily Sloan wouldn’t connect a minor issue to a series of chain effects.
"Of course."
"I have my own judgment on this matter, no need to worry."
"Okay, your decisions are always right."
The official start time of the expo was set for two o’clock in the afternoon, but just past twelve, everyone hurried to the scene.
Entertainment reporters, financial journalists, short video bloggers, models, minor celebrities, business moguls... people from all circles were present.
The most bustling area was the photography zone, where each person had a camera, constantly adjusting parameters and angles, fearing they might miss a photo that could go viral.
"I heard the person in charge of The Sinclair Group has come over, such a big favor for the organizers?"
A junior reporter adjusting equipment asked.
"Maybe he’s here with his wife," his colleague replied.
For people in their tier, meeting the "business legend" was an extremely difficult task. Many media outlets and magazines wanted to interview Jasper Sinclair, but all were invariably rejected.
Unexpectedly, they could see him in person at a fashion feast.
...
Nora Northwood touched up her makeup and came out of the restroom, only to run into an acquaintance.
"At least you’re a company head, can you not dress so poorly?"
As fate would have it, she always ran into Rachel Woodward in places like restrooms.
In the past, Rachel, proud as a peacock, would look down on her but wouldn’t be so blunt with her sarcasm, let alone so outspoken.
Now, she couldn’t even be bothered to hide it.
Nora’s outfit today was indeed much plainer, quite unnoticeable in the crowd.
She anticipated that a high-end expo would surely be a place where many styles flourished, and to stand out in such a setting was truly not an easy task.
So, she did the opposite.
She thought, a gracefully understated beauty would garner more affection than a sultry seductress.
"Miss Woodward, it seems you enjoy commenting on others a lot."
Rachel was so furious at being retorted that her shoulders trembled, she snorted heavily, "My father has already hired the master Rora from France for me, VK’s glory days are probably over!"
Upon hearing Rora’s name, Nora’s pupils dilated for a moment, but she quickly regained composure.
She smiled and said, "We’ll wait and see."
After coming out of the restroom, Nora met Vincent Morgan; today could be considered half his main venue.
"Nora, it’s been a bit busy, didn’t have time to entertain you," he said, panting a few times, not too obviously, but since Nora was closest, she could feel it, thinking he really must be busy.
"No worries, we can skip a few formal pleasantries."
"My mentor will be coming shortly, at least half the people at the expo are her contacts. She can introduce you to the resources you want."
Vincent hit the nail on the head about Nora’s intention to attend the expo, which was to draw cooperation for VK.
With less than three months left until her expected launch time, she needed to thoroughly open VK’s reputation across wider regions before then. At the moment, she was just short of the final spark, and she had to exert herself fully to find the next opportunity.
"Thank you for the reminder, I do need resources."
Speak of the devil, and he will appear.
The sound of the Crown Vellfire’s engine approached from afar, and within a few breaths, it stopped at the entrance.
The young and handsome male liaison opened the car door for the guest sitting in the back seat, his gloved hand, clad in pure white, rested very gentlemanly against the car door edge, protecting the guest’s head.
