Chapter 125: Take All Ad Spots
What's worse is that Aceng doesn't even mind if David just makes her his concubine. It was too much for her who was almost like the number one woman in the country.
She didn't know what had happened to Aceng. Yesterday, he seemed to be having mental problems. Today, he was forcing her to become the wife or concubine of a young man.
In David's eyes, Aceng was indeed an old man with no morals and no pride.
He sold his granddaughter to him. His goal is clear to David, Mery and Lisa. He wanted to build a better relationship with his new boss.
David looked at Jenny again.
Despite things, he had to admit that Jenny was a very attractive woman.
She was in the top class, unattainable for any man.
Her beauty, her intelligence, her education, and her popularity.
Those were her values, values that almost all women lacked.
After a few moments of silence, David said to Jenny, "This is your grandfather's decision. I accept his gift, so I hope you know how to behave. You may be amazing, but you're nobody here."
David decided not to refuse what Aceng gave him. Refusing didn't fit with what his power wanted, so he didn't refuse.
And he didn't want this woman to act badly in front of him because she didn't accept her grandfather's decision, so he reminded her in advance.
Jenny's beautiful lips instantly parted at David's words.
At first, she felt that David was a quiet and calm man. Who would have thought that he immediately tried to dominate her.
Not only did this not match her expectations, but it also made her angrier.
However, she had to admit that she was quite intimidated.
First she didn't dare to challenge Aceng's decision because ever since she was little she had been used to looking up to the old man.
And that Aceng seemed afraid of David showed that the latter had a more extraordinary identity.
Although not a coward, Jenny was a little hesitant to argue in this place.
In the end, she could only show her annoyance.
With her many advantages, she suddenly became seemingly insignificant.
This was a very unpleasant feeling.
Fortunately, no one else besides David, Mery, Lisa, and her colleagues heard Aceng's words.
The employees who were watching from afar were just confused without knowing anything. They were confused because they saw Jenny looking in a bad mood.
David didn't say anything else either.
He stepped into the building, followed by the others including Aceng and Jenny.
The latter actually seemed curious about the business in this building.
She realized that this was a startup business. It was just that she felt strange about the name of the app that would be launched.
TokTak, she kept wondering what the strange word meant.
It just so happened that when they entered the building, Pramono was coming down the stairs.
He quickened his pace when he saw David.
"Boss, you finally came," he said, now calling David boss even though he was the boss in this company.
In the end, David would hold more shares so he would have to report to him, so it wasn't wrong to call him boss.
After looking at David, Pramono looked at Jenny. The man's eyes were naturally drawn to her beauty.
And he seemed to know who Jenny was because he was immediately surprised.
"Miss Jenny, you came too?" he said as if he wasn't sure why Jenny would come here.
Being in a bad mood, Jenny was too lazy to respond. She continued to look around.
Aside from the fact that she didn't know Pramono, in her eyes Pramono's appearance wasn't pleasant to look at either.
Ignored, Pramono rolled his eyes.
He then said to David, "boss, your little girlfriend is really arrogant!"
Pramono began to think that Jenny was David's girlfriend. And since David already had a main girlfriend, which was Jane, so Pramono thought of Jenny as just a little girlfriend. For him this was normal because even he had already had two girlfriends since he returned to his country.
Considering that David had tremendous advantages, it was not strange that even Jenny, who was considered the number one woman in the country became his girlfriend.
"What are you saying?" Jenny finally spoke because she felt provoked.
She didn't have the composure that she often showed when she made videos about business.
Unfortunately, right after she said that, Aceng suddenly hit her hand.
Aceng's punch was of course weak, but it shook Jenny's heart.
"You are indeed our boss's little girlfriend, Mr. David, why are you angry?" Aceng said in an angry tone.
Jenny instantly looked like she wanted to cry from hearing her own grandfather's words.
She unconsciously looked at Mery and Lisa. Maybe it was because they were fellow women, so she hoped for support from them.
Unfortunately, they seemed indifferent.
What she didn't expect, David suddenly grabbed her palm and held it firmly.
After that, he said to Pramono, "take us upstairs, isn't the app about to launch now?"
David chose not to comment on this topic while Jenny still felt very surprised by his actions.
Suddenly she somehow felt protected by David.
The feeling was quite obvious and made her heart comfortable even though she didn't want to admit it.
She assumed her mind was only affected because David did something that no one else would ever think of.
Pramono nodded to David and then invited him to go up the stairs.
Together, they made their way to the top floor. Although there was an elevator in the building, all the elevators were apparently under renovation.
They went up to the third floor which was the main room.
There, there was a large screen with many desks and each desk had one person typing on a laptop.
They all stood up when Pramono arrived and gave David and the others a respectful look. They clearly guessed that they were the investors although David was the only investor.
"Boss, the app has been uploaded to various app sharing sites such as Playy Store and Appp Store," Pramono said.
"However, just a few uploads won't get the TokTak app downloaded. It may not appear on any other person's phone except for the phones of the employees who are just checking."
Hearing Pramono's words, David checked the app on his phone. It did appear but no one had downloaded it.
The employees obviously hadn't downloaded it either.
Just uploading the app to an app sharing site was a simple matter.
The point was to promote it.
"Is the ad ready?" David asked Pramono.
"Yes!" The man replied and picked up a laptop.
"Boss, as long as you press the enter button, our ads will be posted on every website and app. And our ads will fill the internet so that no other ads will appear," he said confidently.
His words shocked Jenny who is a CEO.
"Are you crazy? How much money are you spending on that?" she said.
The woman didn't want to join the discussion at this place, but she couldn't help but do so because something had surprised her too much.
It was common knowledge that advertisements on the internet used an auction system. Whoever pays the most gets the ad spot.
This is fine, but advertising to the point where no other ads appear is too much.
David also wondered how much money Pramono had spent.
He knew that there were more funds sent by Jane to this company than the initial funds used to establish Apex Capital Group.
"Hehehe, two billion dollars," Pramono replied.
Hearing that, even Aceng took a deep breath.
Although he had a huge fortune, he wouldn't be so crazy as to spend two billion dollars directly just to advertise.
The problem was that the funds would probably run out in one day.
David also felt that it was too much.
"Ehhmmm..." Pramono cleared his throat.
"Boss, this is Miss Jane's wish, she said she wants this app trending as soon as possible, and I'm confident in the success of this ad," he told David.
"How much target do you want to achieve for this ad?" asked David in response.
"Five to ten million," Pramono replied with a faint smile. "Boss, as long as this app is a topic of discussion, we'll get a lot of free advertising from people."
"Then what if no one downloads it, or people aren't interested in using the app after downloading it?" asked Jenny, unable to help but keep asking.
"It will definitely work because my app is unique and full of innovation," Pramono replied confidently.
"Even you, Miss Jenny, will use my app later to share content, and the results will definitely be better on my app," he added.
Jenny still looked skeptical. She then looked at David's face who was still holding her hand. Now she wondered who he was to spend so much money.
To her surprise, as she stared at David's face, David suddenly looked at her too, and gave her a dazzlingly thin smile.
Jenny who was full of curiosity was in turmoil of mind, and the sudden smile from David turned that turmoil into awkwardness. Her cheeks flushed slightly at that.
