Chapter 172 [Potato Chips and Vases]
Except for refusing to go to other teams for trials last year, Guo Xu has always recognized the work of Harpy Waters.
The agent of an NBA player is a very important role, and having a good agent will bring higher returns to the player, especially when it comes to negotiating commercial endorsements, some agents are quite sharp, and some laymen will accept everything. Players win by the number of endorsements, and there is a possibility that there will be endless troubles in the future.
Receiving endorsements is sometimes emotional, and Harpi can't make up his mind to report to Guo Xu in detail.
"Lay's wants to find you to endorse potato chips, the annual endorsement fee is 2 million, they want you and O'Neal to shoot commercials together, but the endorsement fee is much lower than O'Neal, has O'Neill talked to you about this?"
Lay's is a well-known potato chip brand in the United States, and it is also the name of a company founded in 1932, which has been a product of PepsiCo since 1965.
In a way, potato chips dominate the fast-food market in the United States, they are readily available and delicious, and Americans have space in their cupboards dedicated to potato chips. Some people like the crispy slices, some people like the chewy thick slices, some people like the sour and refreshing salt and vinegar, and some people like the solid potato aroma of the original flavor, anyway, you have to buy a few big bags!
Guo Xu said with a smile: "He has talked more than once, I have a headache when he says it, this is his favorite snack, I can endorse it, but there is one condition, you need to communicate with that side." β
This is what O'Neill said to Guo Xu during the time loop, and every time the two meet for dinner, they can talk, which is the information he hears the most.
"On what terms?"
Guo Xuti's condition is not to increase the money, nor the number of years of endorsement, but to use his advertising creativity and use a supporting actress he recommended, the advertising story of him and O'Neill eating potato chips together in the locker room planned by Lay's was too boring.
During the time loop, Guo Xu thought of an advertising idea suitable for potato chips by the way, of course, it was not original, it was a classic advertisement that he had seen in his previous life, and he also changed a version in addition to the original.
Harpy was shocked when he heard what he had to say. "You're going to plan an advertisement? This sounds really good and maybe it can be popular, you said you want to recommend a supporting actress, it shouldn't be the kid opposite you, right? β
Harpy came to Guo Xu to see Megan a few times, only to feel that there was a little vixen living opposite, and his uncle swallowed saliva when he saw it.
"yes, who else could it be?"
"Jason, I have to warn you, it's a crime." Harpy laughed.
"You think too much, we are very ordinary neighbors."
"Well, she's not going to sue you, is she? I don't want to lose your only big customer. β
"......" Guo Xu didn't bother to explain, these people's thoughts were too impure.
The next day, Harpy replied to Guo Xu, and Lay's agreed, and was also willing to symbolically add an additional $100,000 to buy his advertising ideas as a publicity gimmick. They wanted the ad to start shooting as soon as possible and run during Celebrity Weekend.
At noon, Megan made the best French grilled lamb chops, and the two had a good meal together. After cleaning up the dishes, they ate Lay's potato chips and watched TV, and Guo Xu mentioned the new advertising endorsement.
Meghan hesitated for a moment and asked, "Do you need an actress if you're shooting a commercial?" Can you recommend me? It's been a long time since I've been offered a job. β
Meghan has been in her previous life for many years, and she was a trickster before "Transformers", and playing the villain in the campus movie is her biggest role. If she wants to be famous in this era, the only chance is to find an old driver to take her.
Guo Xu turned his head to steal the fun, she originally wanted to find Megan to shoot an advertisement together, but she took the initiative to mention it first, as if she could make her owe a big favor.
"What are you laughing at? Okay, huh? Megan asked.
"Why should I shoot with you? You have a minute to convince me. Guo Xu coughed and said seriously.
"Huh? It's also too short. Megan was stunned, opening her mouth to show her rabbit teeth.
"There are 55 seconds left."
"......" Meghan often feels that Guo Xu has a split personality, sometimes he looks like a very atmospheric successful person, sometimes he is naΓ―ve like a child, and likes to play some pranks.
She had no choice but to find a reason. "I help you cook, wash dishes, wash clothes, clean your room, how good I am to you."
"You often rub food, the workload is too low, you are not qualified as a maid, no, there is still half a minute."
"We're friends."
"I'm friends with Kelly, she's in better shape than you, and my cousin must be very happy if you introduce her to shoot commercials, and there's 15 seconds left."
Meghan decided to make a big move: "If you can introduce me to shoot a commercial, I will listen to you do one thing, as long as it is not too much, I will do whatever you say, this is always okay, right?" β
"When the time comes, this one is still sincere, I agreed, after all, I am a kind-hearted person." Guo Xu smiled and said: "In the afternoon, I will ask the agent to contact Lay's to talk about adding a heroine...... As for what you want to do, I'll talk about it later. β
"Yay!" Megan clenched her little fist and waved it, she wanted to be famous so much.
Guo Xu said lazily: "Don't be happy too early, no matter how popular an advertisement is and making a movie, you have to work hard to learn acting, and improving your acting skills is the key." Otherwise, your image and temperament can only play an arrogant female villain in youth dramas, and when you grow up, you can only play a bewitching role. β
Megan knew that Guo Xu knew movies very well, and what she said was reasonable, sighed: "I hate to wear it on TV and rarely let the audience watch it, I feel like an animal." This time I filmed "Holiday in the Sun", I didn't like that role. Do you think I can't play some innocent roles? β
"If you don't open your mouth, lick your lips, and bite your lip, you may still be saved." Guo Xu glanced at Megan a few times: "Now you have this kind of expression, this problem is too bad." β
Megan closed her mouth and sat up straight, posing as a good student who listened carefully in class, but her silver-gray pupils and thick lips that were a little reflective still looked seductive.
Guo Xu rolled his eyes, waved his hand and said: "Okay, you are hopeless, if you want to broaden your acting career, unless you gain dozens of pounds and pretend to be ugly to make movies." β
Hollywood is popular to self-destruct and make movies, and it is difficult for beauties to be recognized for their acting skills, like Charlize Theron was a vase for N years, and she was elected as the actress when she played "The Devil Girl".
And Megan's acting skills seem to be ugly and can't act in literary films, in her previous life, she was a pure vase of pure water with zero acting skills. Apart from her, no vase has been nominated for the worst actress of Jin Sour Mei three times, and she also won one award for "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles".
Megan asked: "If I have some specialties, will it be easier to get the play?" β
"What's your specialty?"
"Dance." Megan said embarrassedly.
Guo Xu rubbed his neck. "If you go the sexy route in Latin, I think you will succeed, but it also depends on luck, Hollywood hasn't had a famous song and dance film for a long time."
Megan sighed again.
Guo Xu felt that she was a very contradictory person, and at this time she desperately wanted to become famous, but she didn't know how to cherish it after becoming famous. In 2007, her popularity was far above Scarlett Johansson, if she hadn't faced the media with nonsense and offended the director and producer, she would have had the opportunity to become a first-line actress with commercial films.
Guo Xu smiled, planning to help Megan in the entertainment industry to see where she could go in the future. ()
