EPISODE 232: SAMSUNG ANYCALL ENDORSEMENT
Although Samsung Electronics has some global pricing power in the supply of key components such as chips and picture tubes, in the European and American markets, Samsung Electronics' computer terminal products, especially high-end products, have been sniped by companies such as Dell, HP and even Sony, Panasonic, and Sharp. As the head of Samsung Electronics' overseas headquarters, Li Xudong racked his brains to open up the high-end computer product market in Europe and the United States, and finally he came up with a solution that was to squeeze into the European and American e-sports circles and rely on the world-class e-sports competitions that have attracted increasing attention to promote Samsung Electronics' brand promotion in Europe and the United States.
Samsung Electronics has been sponsoring WCG since 2001, but the problem is that although WCG is known as the World E-sports Series, the finals were held in South Korea in previous years, and it was not until last year that the finals were held for the first time in San Francisco, USA, and this year's finals will return to Asia to be held in Singapore.
In Lee's vision, this global e-sports tournament led by Samsung Electronics will be different from other world e-sports competitions, and will add more online game projects, such as Shen Yuanhao's RELOAD company's "Elf World" and BLIZZARD's latest online game "World of Warcraft".
Samsung Electronics' establishment of a high-end brand image in Europe and the United States is the focus of his work this year, and if the overseas department can't even handle the overseas market, don't sit in the position of minister, so it is very important for him to discuss cooperation with Shen Yuanhao.
Li Xudong didn't have too much politeness, but asked Shen Yuanhao and RELOAD company directly, although Zheng Xiyi didn't know why Li Xudong was interested in Shen Yuanhao and RELOAD, but Li Xudong's concern about it explained a lot of things.
Li Xudong is also unlucky, if he goes directly to Shen Yuanhao, it is definitely better than looking for Shen Yuanhao through Zheng Xiyi, because Shen Yuanhao must be better than Zheng Xiyi, but he crashed into the hands of Zheng Xiyi, the mastermind behind RELOAD, and he didn't know about this loss of things in and out, otherwise he would have to cry.
Zheng Xiyi talked for a long time, and finally guessed why Li Xudong wanted to see Shen Yuanhao, so he repeated the old trick again, took out his mobile phone and turned on the speakerphone to call Shen Yuanhao, and helped Li Xudong make an appointment with Shen Yuanhao to meet and discuss in detail after the Spring Festival.
As soon as the phone hung up, Li Xudong stretched out his hand and patted Zheng Xiyi, "Xiyi XI, thank you so much, I really want to thank you this time." ”
Zheng Xiyi shook his head and said, "Where, Minister Li wants to see my brother-in-law no matter what, at most, it's just that the person who is talking is different." ”
Li Xudong solved the business smoothly, and his mood was suddenly much happier. Yesterday, he promised Zheng Xiyi to eat only because of Xu Peilu, but he didn't expect to have a relationship with Shen Yuanhao by mistake.
"Xiyi XI, are you and Li Xiaoli XI serious about dating?" Li Xudong leaned on the sofa and asked in a relaxed manner, after the business is over, I will talk about some private matters to shorten the distance between the two people, this is a standard business negotiation method.
Zheng Xiyi scratched the back of his head and said, "I'm really not dating, I just have a good impression of each other." However, we are all still young now, and Sister Xiaoli's career is also on the rise, and there are still some small troubles to solve, so she is still thinking about it. ”
Li Xudong blinked, and suddenly asked with a mysterious smile, "Maybe I can help with this." I remember that Heeyi XI used to work with Lee Hyo-ri XI, do you have any ideas to work with Lee Hyo-ri XI again?"
Zheng Xiyi is a lot, Samsung is very good, even S.M has a large number of shares in Samsung's hands, but DSP is not Samsung's, not to mention that the album or something has nothing to do with Samsung Electronics, Li Xudong's bull is a bit too much.
Li Xudong saw Zheng Xiyi's confused look, and immediately laughed, this young man has a calm and calm expression from yesterday to today, and finally can see that he has a time when he can't grasp the situation, which makes Li Xudong very happy.
"WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF SELECTING A SPOKESPERSON FOR ANYCALL...... Although I can't guarantee that I will be able to choose Xiyi XI and Lee Hyori XI, I will definitely do my best, and I hope that Xiyi XI can also try my best to help me say a few words in front of Shen Yuanhao XI. ”
There is no need for a hammer to ring the gong, Li Xudong just said this, Zheng Xiyi immediately understood, Li Xudong was bribing him in exchange for him saying good things for Li Xudong in front of Shen Yuanhao.
Zheng Xiyi is really a little crying and laughing, am I cheating Li Xudong? But I didn't have any black thoughts about him, he dug a pit and jumped down by himself......
Li Xudong saw that Zheng Xiyi's face changed a little, and thought that he was really still an artist, and he was excited when he heard that he could be the spokesperson of Samsung, it seems that this bait is still right.
Zheng Xiyi's face changed, in fact, he wanted to refuse this endorsement, he didn't have trouble with money, but it was hard to say what Li Xudong would think if he knew that he had the absolute right to propose in RELOAD in the future.
Li Xudong saw that Zheng Xiyi was still hesitating, and thought to himself that his prospective girlfriend was still not as good as his brother-in-law, maybe he should add some code to Li Xiaoli's side?
Thinking of this, Li Xudong smiled and said to Zheng Xiyi: "Xiyi XI, I know that you should not lack money, and there is no shortage of popularity, but Li Xiaoli XI is just an IDOL, although it has been very popular in the past two years, but it is an IDOL after all, and if I remember correctly, Li Xiaoli XI is still a few years older than Xiyi XI, right?"
Zheng Xiyi didn't speak, just nodded silently, he wanted to see how Li Xudong was going to convince himself.
Li Xudong continued with some pride: "With Xiyi's conditions, it is easy to find a popular female star in the United States......, right?
"Which one is better in mining technology?"
"What did you just say?"
Zheng Xiyi hurriedly waved his hand, "No, I didn't say anything." ”
Li Xudong looked at Zheng Xiyi in wonder, looked around left and right again, thinking that this is the Shilla Hotel, it is unlikely that there will be anything unclean, so it is better to hurry up and leave quickly, the events of the past two days are really a little evil.
"I'll make a long story short, with Xiyi XI's family background, Lee Hyori XI is afraid that it will be difficult to enter your family's door, and only Lee Hyori XI can become an international star There is a glimmer of possibility. This time Samsung ANYCALL's advertising endorsement will be a super-large production, and the goal is also for the international market, although the focus is still on Asia, but it will definitely be put in the United States, as long as Lee Hyori XI can become a spokesperson, this step will immediately become an international star, and the gap between Xiyi XI and Lee Hyori XI will be shortened a lot, so that Xiyi XI is easier to say in front of his family. ”
Zheng Xiyi's face became ruddy, and the surprise in his eyes was also palpable, as if he noticed that he was too excited, Zheng Xiyi lowered his head, Li Xudong was secretly happy in his heart, it seems that he guessed the so-called little troubles that Zheng Xiyi said, isn't it that his parents will object.
In Li Xudong's heart, Li Xiaoli and Zheng Xiyi are naturally unworthy. Although he is also a person who has studied abroad for many years and received a Western-style education, the concept of family background and identity status has long been deeply rooted, how can he think that Zheng Xiyi and Lee Hyori are equal. An American actor and a Korean female IDOL are 108,000 miles away, not to mention that Zheng Xiyi's parents are tenured professors at New York University, and his brother-in-law leads such a large emerging online game company.
But now Li Xudong must lead Zheng Xiyi to the road of serious communication with Li Xiaoli, otherwise this favor will not be sold for money. Zheng Xiyi is only twenty years old, and the young man is the most persistent in love, women, and women, and maybe Zheng Xiyi will really have a relationship with Li Xiaoli for the purpose of marriage, so won't he be able to give a solid favor? Zheng Xiyi is grateful for his help to him, and naturally he will do his best to say good things about the cooperation between Samsung Electronics and RELOAD in front of Shen Yuanhao.
Zheng Xiyi lowered his head to hide the smile he couldn't hold back, and his face was ruddy because he was holding back his smile too much. As soon as Li Xudong introduced Zheng Xiyi to his family, he understood what he was thinking, and he smiled in his heart, but he didn't dare to expose it, so he could only lower his head and endure it very hard.
When Li Xudong finally finished speaking, Zheng Xiyi also calmed down and took on the role a little, then raised his head and looked at Li Xudong with a grateful face and said: "Minister Li NIM, you have really helped me a lot, thank you, thank you very much, Kangsang Smecta!"
The more Zheng Xiyi spoke, the more excited he became, and finally simply stood up and gave Li Xudong a 90-degree bow, Li Xudong laughed and sat on the sofa and accepted this salute calmly, and waited for Zheng Xiyi to straighten up before beckoning, "Oh, Xiyi XI is too polite, what is there to thank you for, sit down, sit down and talk." ”
Zheng Xiyi decided to play this role well, otherwise he would be too disappointed Li Xudong's big brain, he patted his chest and said to Li Xudong: "If Minister Li NIM can promote me and Sister Xiaoli to cooperate in endorsement, then Minister Li's NIM matter is also my business." ”
Li Xudong clapped his hands when he saw it, "Okay! Xiyi XI is really a man who values love and righteousness, I am not mistaken." I will definitely do my best to help Xiyi XI and Lee Hyori XI fight for the endorsement, Xiyi XI, please wait for the good news. ”
There is a reason why Li Xudong dared to say such big words. IN FACT, THE SPOKESPERSON OF SAMSUNG ANYCALL HAS BASICALLY BEEN DETERMINED, THE FEMALE ARTIST IS LI XIAOLI, AND THE MALE ARTIST IS THE CAPTAIN OF THE MYTHICAL GROUP, ERIC, BUT BECAUSE OF THE SPRING FESTIVAL, THE BROKERAGE COMPANIES OF BOTH PARTIES HAVE NOT BEEN NOTIFIED.
What Li Xudong has to do is just to persuade the propaganda department to replace ERIC with Zheng Xiyi, and even Li Xudong has thought of the reason: first of all, Zheng Xiyi is more in line with the requirements of internationalization than ERIC; secondly, the scandal and cooperation between Zheng Xiyi and Li Xiaoli have also been a hot spot of national attention, and it will be much easier to hype up if they cooperate again this time; finally, Zheng Xiyi's identity is an actor, and his endorsement is obviously higher than ERIO's level of Samsung ANYCALL. With these three key factors, Li Xudong believes that his persuasion work will not be difficult to do, Zheng Xiyi's influence is there, although ERIC is also very popular, but it is really worse than Zheng Xiyi.
The two of them laughed heartily, both of them felt that they had picked up a bargain for nothing this time, and after a few more small talks, they got up and left, and went home separately.
