At Infinity Media's headquarters, Daniel walked out carrying a cardboard box, his expression dark and hollow. Even though the founder had once favored him, it no longer mattered. The moment the acquisition was completed, Infinity Media no longer belonged to its original team—it belonged entirely to Jason.
If he stayed, he wouldn't be "fighting back." He would simply be waiting for Jason to personally humiliate him.
As Daniel stepped out of the building in a daze, two familiar figures approached from the sidewalk. Ethan and Edward.
The moment he saw them, Daniel's already-ugly expression twisted further. If it weren't for the poisonous suggestions these two had fed him, he would never have ended up in this state.
"President Daniel," Ethan asked, forcing a smile, "how did it go? Why are you carrying such a big box? What's going on?"
Daniel clenched his teeth. "Meeting you two was the most unlucky thing in my entire life."
Ethan frowned, irritation flashing across his face, but he still restrained himself. "President Daniel, why say that?"
Daniel laughed bitterly, then exploded. "I listened to your nonsense. That's why I went after New Vision Media. You said Jason was tight on cash. Tight on cash?! He spent over three billion and directly acquired all of Infinity Media. How exactly is that 'tight'?!"
Ethan's face went blank. "Three… three billion?" he stammered.
Edward's eyes widened, his face going pale. They couldn't believe it. That meant not only had they failed to get revenge—they had personally helped Jason acquire another empire-level company.
And Infinity Media wasn't just any company. Jason was already pushing domestic luxury brands. With Infinity Media under his control, he now had traffic, creators, distribution, and capital—all in one hand. He had truly become a tiger with wings.
Watching Jason grow stronger and stronger hurt more than being killed outright.
Back at New Vision Media, Olivia moved with ruthless efficiency. Within hours of the acquisition, she reported directly to Jason.
She said calmly, "Infinity Media's headquarters server room, finance department, and archives have all had their original management access revoked. The technical team has completed a full copy of the core database. Streamer real contact information, advertiser lists, traffic acquisition channels—everything has been secured. System migration is complete. Backup data on the original servers has been wiped."
In short—total physical control. Total data control. No room for retaliation. Even if Daniel wouldn't dare to sabotage anything, it was still better to crush all risks at the root.
Olivia then handed Jason another folder. "Young Master, this contains Jay's full information and current contact details."
Jason smiled faintly. "Good. Find a way to lure him back to the country—using Infinity Media's name."
Olivia smiled as well, nodded, and made a note. Then she produced several more contracts.
"These documents list all the New Vision Media streamers Infinity tried to poach."
Jason glanced through them, his expression turning subtle. Before, he had to investigate who Infinity was trying to steal. Now? He simply had to open a folder.
Three streamers had already signed with Infinity and were only waiting for their breach-of-contract lawsuits to be finalized. Jason couldn't help but wonder—what expressions would they wear when they discovered that Infinity Media's new owner was the very man they tried to betray?
Jason leaned back slightly and asked calmly, "Has Infinity Media held its annual shareholders' meeting yet?"
Olivia replied immediately, "Not yet. It's scheduled for about six or seven days from now."
Jason frowned faintly. "I don't feel like staying here that long. Move it up to two days from now."
Olivia nodded without hesitation. "Understood."
After a brief pause, she added, "One more thing. The three streamers Infinity Media recently poached have already received invitations to attend the annual meeting. Now that the meeting is earlier, should we notify them?"
Jason smiled, the corner of his mouth lifting slightly. "Notify them."
Olivia smiled as well. "Alright."
Just then, Lewis called. "Jason, I've got some good news—though it's strange. Infinity Media suddenly withdrew all public accusations and attacks against us."
Jason replied calmly, "I was about to call you too. New Vision Media should also withdraw all counterattacks."
Lewis froze for a moment. "…Did something happen to them? They attacked when they wanted, and now they just stop? Shouldn't we take advantage of this and finish them off?"
Jason laughed lightly. "It's not that something happened to Infinity Media. It's that I bought them. If you keep attacking, it'll just be our own people fighting each other."
Lewis went silent. Three full seconds passed. "…What did you just say?"
Lewis was completely stunned. Infinity Media. A listed MCN giant. Market value over three billion. Owning nearly half of all top-tier streamers nationwide. And Jason had just… acquired it?
Lewis felt his brain stall. "I was still thinking about how to defend ourselves, and you just… bought them? In your eyes, is three billion just pocket change?"
Jason didn't answer directly.
Lewis swallowed, then said carefully, "Then… will Infinity Media and New Vision Media cooperate deeply? Before, we had Starlight Fashion… now Infinity Media too. What about my shares? I should give some up, right? Would 66.7% for you be appropriate? Or… more?"
Lewis wasn't stupid. Jason now owned 100% of Infinity Media, but only 51% of New Vision Media. If Lewis clung to shares out of greed, Jason could simply shift his focus elsewhere. Giving up control voluntarily was the smartest move.
Jason replied calmly, "66.7% is enough. I don't need more. Also, I'll issue a new contract for Mia. She'll become the first streamer to simultaneously enjoy top-tier resources from both New Vision Media and Infinity Media. The old contract will be void. If you see no issue, have her sign it."
After hanging up, Lewis remained dazed for a long moment. He printed the new contract and brought it to Mia. After a quick scan, his expression changed. The contract was overwhelmingly favorable. No loss of benefits from New Vision Media—and full access to Infinity Media's best traffic, brands, and promotion channels.
Lewis instantly understood. Jason valued Mia immensely. He quietly noted this and became even more respectful toward her. From a business standpoint, there was no downside. With resources from two giants, Mia's value would only skyrocket.
When Mia received the contract, she was briefly confused. But Jason had already messaged her privately. She signed without hesitation.
Afterward, she said softly, "President Lewis, I'll be going to Yangcheng tomorrow to attend a dinner with Young Master. I might not be able to stream for two days. I wanted to ask for leave in advance."
Lewis immediately smiled. "From now on, when you accompany Young Master, you don't need to ask me for leave."
At that moment, Grace happened to walk past and overheard the conversation. Her heart sank instantly. Since the rumors of Jason's "bankruptcy" had surfaced earlier, she had felt a faint unease. Though she had reassured herself and stayed by his side, she couldn't help feeling that Jason hadn't been as attentive to her lately.
Whether guilt or psychology—she didn't know. But now, seeing Mia personally accompanying him, a sharp sense of crisis surged up. Grace didn't hesitate. She immediately sent Jason a message, asking to accompany him as well.
Meanwhile, Angela and others were quietly celebrating. They stared at the Infinity Media annual meeting invitations in their hands, eyes shining. In their minds, this was their moment. Their leap to the top.
They had no idea that the stage they were stepping onto had already changed owners
