"How's it going, Dean? Ready to face even more cameras?" Richard greeted him cheerfully.
"If you could give me a heads-up about such events next time, that would be even better."
Because of the rushed schedule, Dean hadn't even had time to prepare properly.
"Don't always expect to be given time to prepare for everything. Besides, this is Time Magazine we're talking about, the dream interview for many."
It was foreseeable that, with the next week's issue of Time Magazine, Dean would become the darling of numerous media pursuits.
"Alright, I'll try to adapt to them," Dean acknowledged, aware that this was a publicity opportunity specially orchestrated by Morgan Stanley for him.
After they had signed the contract two days earlier, Richard had informed him of this part of the plan.
To kick off the roadshow and attract more investment firms, such essential publicity was, of course, indispensable.
