Starry Entertainnt wasn't just a na; it also signified a place of business.
To give the Miss Arica pageant sufficient prestige, Donnie decided to set Starry Entertainnt's office in the only office building in Atlantic City, the Ocean Building.
The Ocean Building was said to be so nad, but in reality, it was only four stories high.
Starry Entertainnt's office was located on the fourth floor of the Ocean Building, occupying an area of over three hundred square ters, divided into Donnie's office, a eting room, and then the rest of the office area.
The office had been finished today, and Donnie took Dwight to see it.
Sitting in his own office, Donnie could clearly see the Atlantic.
The staff of Starry Entertainnt had moved from their temporary office at the Ritz Hotel to this place.
Although the company wasn't large, it was well-equipped, with Donnie serving as chairman and general manager, overseeing five departnts: organization, accounting, operations, logistics, and advertising!
But in reality, the managers of these departnts each had only a personal desk and a relatively small area to themselves within the vast office space.
While the company's personnel were all recruited by Donnie, he was still very troubled by their capabilities.
Atlantic City was a strange city—its prosperity rivaled that of any major city in the United States, but its business model was extrely monotonous.
Bars, casinos, boarding apartnts, hotels, banks, and engineering companies—it was almost the entirety of the business model here.
This distorted developnt model resulted in a lack of other respectable companies in the area, and the local youth either joined gangs or served Atlantic City's drinking, gambling, and won. Those young people who left for college and ca back were mostly lawyers, doctors, and so financial professionals.
As for others, once they left for school, they rarely returned!
So as for the working ability of the staff at Starry Entertainnt, Donnie didn't think highly of it.
In the end, Donnie could only pick out the taller ones among the short, recruiting the current staff.
"Boss, up until now, we've received a total of 183 female applications for the entire Atlantic City. Although this number is less than we predicted, I think it's acceptable!"
In the eting room of Starry Entertainnt, the manager of the organization departnt, Tom Hudson, reported to Donnie holding a stack of reports.
Donnie had no complaints upon hearing this number; in fact, he was satisfied with it, as most won of this era were still inclined towards conservatism.
Although so young won were already very open.
But they still had parents above them, and no matter how open they were in private, their parents might not know. However, openly participating in such a contest was sothing their parents would definitely be aware of.
In fact, Tom Hudson had more than once ntioned to Donnie that after so girls had registered, their parents ca directly to the company, demanding the imdiate withdrawal of their daughters' applications, or else they would sue Starry Entertainnt!
"Don't just focus on those ordinary girls; the strippers in Atlantic City are all willing to show off their bodies!"
Though the number had reached Donnie's satisfaction, he would be even happier if more girls joined in.
Upon hearing Donnie's thoughts, Tom Hudson looked shocked, "Boss, do you an to say that those strippers can also join the Miss Arica pageant?"
Donnie spread his hands, "Why not? Are they not won? Or is their figure not graceful enough?"
The operations departnt manager, Jim Chugel, said, "Boss, I think what Hudson ans is, if we let these strippers join, wouldn't it potentially have a negative impact on our pageant?"
Donnie laughed heartily, "Are you trying to tell that Miss Arica's reputation is very good as it is now?"
Breaking the shackles of an era always incurs the dissatisfaction of the old guards.
Especially when these conservatives still held sway over societal discourse.
In Atlantic City, aside from Donnie's "Atlantic City Post" which was promoting the Miss Arica pageant without sparing any effort, the other three newspapers were attacking the pageant with equal vigor!
In simple terms, the Miss Arica pageant had absolute heat in Atlantic City, but not enough favor.
If you interviewed the ordinary people of Atlantic City, three out of four would say that such an event was indecent, with only one expressing their support covertly!
Seeing everyone silent, Donnie said firmly, "This is the last ti I'm going to explain Miss Arica's beauty pageant to you all. What we want is attention, nationwide attention. I don't care whether this attention is positive or negative; I just want attention!"
Even hate followers are followers!
Having lived through the information explosion era, Donnie understood the truth in this saying very well.
A task completed should not worry about whether it is deed good or bad, but rather it should be more concerned with whether people are talking about it.
