America 1919

Such a relationship inevitably leads some media to focus on Major League Baseball, which has ties with Atlantic City Broadcast.

Especially considering that just the year before last, Major League Baseball had just experienced the biggest scandal in its history, the Black Sox incident!

"Donnie, I think we should consider changing the name of Atlantic City Broadcast and relocating!"

Robert suggested to Donnie.

"Be specific!"

"Once the Surf Hotel is built and operational, Atlantic City will inevitably become synonymous with Casino City. As a media company, what the general public is most concerned about is its fairness, especially now that we are liaising with major events in the United States.

If we let this go on, it will be easy for the audience to get a subconscious idea that Atlantic City Broadcast is actually a company adept at manipulating outcomes."

"We still lack a strong competitor now, so it doesn't seem like a big deal, but as KDKA's influence grows, it's hard to guarantee they won't attack us continuously from this angle!"

Robert shared his concerns with Donnie.

Donnie continued to inquire, "Which city do you want to move Atlantic City to?"

Robert replied, "I believe it should be moved to New York, and Atlantic City Broadcast should be renamed American Broadcasting Company, which would significantly dilute the association between Atlantic City Broadcast and Atlantic City, and also make the audience trust us more!"

After some thought, Donnie said, "If we move Atlantic City Broadcast out of Atlantic City, then in New York they will be an entirely independent company, and at that time we will need a qualified manager there."

Robert understood that Donnie did not trust Mashang Evans's loyalty.

"We can establish a supervisory board to audit all company reports and financial expenditures, which would limit Mashang Evans's power!"

Donnie shook his head, "The company is currently in a phase of rapid development, and if we establish such an organization now, it's likely to lead to a power struggle with Mashang Evans, which could easily cause internal power struggles and lack of enterprise for external expansion!"

Many major companies are not ruined by external competition, but by internal power struggles over profits and benefits.

Before his rebirth, Donnie saw that the domestic giant Alibaba was already showing signs of decline, with various domestic e-commerce companies rising. It seemed that Alibaba had missed opportunity after opportunity, but the actual reason was the intensifying internal strife!

Donnie, though he knew Robert was right, relocating Atlantic City Broadcast to New York and changing its name would increase its social trust.

However, in a time when communication and transportation were not very convenient, if Atlantic City Broadcast were to relocate, it meant that his control over it would decrease.

Professional managers in the United States are known for their willingness to fight with boards of directors for control!

Donnie did not wish to end up cultivating a pack of ingrates!

Robert said, "Internal power struggles can indeed affect the company's development, but if guided correctly, such competition can also become a driving force, making them work harder for the company's development!"

After pondering for a moment, Donnie said, "I'll consider it some more!"

Robert nodded, "This matter can be put on hold for consideration, but what about the collegiate alliance? Do we still want to follow up with their operations manager…"

"Noel Booth!" Steve Cotting said.

Robert nodded, "That's right, Noel Booth. Do we still want to negotiate with him? The fact that they're only sending an operations manager clearly shows they don't want to collaborate with us!"

Donnie said, "If they don't want to collaborate, we have no need to entangle with them. Let's leave them hanging for a few days!"

Robert asked, "Does that mean we're giving up on the collegiate alliance?"

Donnie gestured dismissively, "It's impossible to give up, but this time we need to make them come to us!"

Hearing Donnie say this, Robert knew Donnie must have a plan.

"Go tell Mashang Evans to contact Jack Dempsey's agent and invite him to Atlantic City!"

Jack Dempsey!

America's rising heavyweight boxing champion.

Before July 1919, the heavyweight champion of America was Jess Willard, and at that time, Jack Dempsey was just an obscure fighter.

But all that changed with a boxing match between the two in July of that year.

At that time, Jack Dempsey challenged the champion Jess Willard, who accepted the challenge.

Back then, everyone expected Jess Willard to win, but surprisingly, in the third round, the 6-foot-6-inch tall champion was knocked down by Jack Dempsey.

This match attracted 19,650 spectators to the venue, filling the entire stadium.

It even became a national sensation at the time, its excitement overshadowing news from the battlefield!

Now, Atlantic City Broadcast has the highest listening audience in the United States, with a stable listener base that has already reached 5 million, but Atlantic City Broadcast has lacked a blockbuster program that could spark nationwide attention ever since the Miss America pageant and the first Major League Baseball game.
