Behind The Spotlight Chapter 218
"Looks like we have a strong contender," Joel, the producer of the show, said, and many people agreed. They looked at the résumé of Kimberly Alphonse, the sports reporter who auditioned earlier. She had a lot of experience interviewing athletes and a professional background.
So far, she was the best one today. Even Salvador agreed, he was satisfied with Kimberly's performance. He smiled in approval, calculations running through his mind.
'Her agent promised me full support in the election and front-page covers in famous magazines once she becomes the host. All under the contract.'
Kimberly's agent was actually the Head of the Sports Department and owned 3.5% of the company's shares. Furthermore, the agent had connections to many famous magazines. Salvador could use these magazines to elevate his clients even more. In fact, he could also use them to elevate his own status.
'They can interview me and make me famous.'
Honestly, those were not the best conditions promised to him, but he didn't think much of it. He considered them freebies.
'Since Kimberly is going to be the host, I'll get benefits either way.'
To be precise, any candidate could give him benefits. He had already talked and negotiated with their agents, they had prior arrangements. He had even manipulated the second round of the audition to make sure everyone who passed would be beneficial to him. It was a secret deal, but this kind of manipulation was a commonly used tactic in the industry.
