205. The first endorsement brand is about to go out of business!
This is Wang Cheng's first time to come to the headquarters of Rubik's Cube, which is located in the prosperous area of the Magic City's commercial area.
And the news that Wang Cheng is coming to the company has also spread.
So.
When Wang Cheng got out of the car and walked into the building with Shen Shenghui, there were many onlookers around.
After all......
As a legend in today's entertainment industry, who wouldn't want to check it out?
What's more, after Wang Cheng returned to the magic capital from the Nanyue Tomorrow Idol program group, four concerts in a row directly ignited the city of the magic capital.
It is not an exaggeration to say that Wang Cheng is the hottest character in the magic capital now!
He was discussed everywhere in the streets.
It's just that there are mixed reviews, and there are far more derogations than praises.
"Is that Wang Cheng?"
"With a mask and a hat, I can't see it clearly, and I don't know if it's as good as on TV."
"Is it true that he has a conflict with the company?"
"I heard that he came to the company today to sign an endorsement contract, which may be a big contract."
"I heard from the grapevine that he has earned more than a billion in the past few months since his debut. In the four days of the concert, the company earned more than a billion yuan, which is a super money printing machine! ”
The employees of the Rubik's Cube Entertainment Company were talking in a low voice, and of course, the staff of other companies in the building also came to watch curiously.
A young woman plucked up the courage to step forward and shouted to Wang Cheng: "Hello Wang Cheng, I am your super loyal fan, can I take a photo with you?" ”
The young woman looked at Wang Cheng expectantly.
Many people around were also ready to move when they saw this scene.
If Wang Cheng agreed......
They'll all rush to it.
Wang Cheng has not publicly signed a group photo of anyone until now, if they can get it and post it on social platforms, it can definitely become an existence that everyone pays attention to.
But.
As if he didn't see the other party at all, Wang Cheng walked directly past him, and then walked into the elevator with Shen Shenghui.
The young woman's face was full of embarrassment and sadness, and then she quickly disappeared into the crowd.
However, everyone's discussion has not stopped.
"Sure enough, it is rumored that Wang Cheng doesn't pay attention to fans at all, which is true."
"Young and ambitious, that's about to drag him to the sky, if there is no fan support, what is he?"
"Hehe, people said in an interview that he doesn't need fans, he sends songs, and others love to buy them."
"I'm blind, I still want to grab tickets for tomorrow's concert to support him."
"Is there a concert tomorrow?"
"I don't know, I'm off tomorrow and want to go and see it, and several of my friends have gone to see it, and they say it's very exciting."
"Tomorrow is estimated not to be, Rubik's Cube Entertainment has not made an announcement."
"Is there something wrong with these people? Concerts on weekday mornings and weekends off? ”
The chatter was heard far away in the crowd.
Wang Cheng had already followed Shen Shenghui upstairs and walked directly into an office.
In the office, there were already several people seated.
A middle-aged man on the opposite side saw Wang Cheng coming in, and quickly got up and reached out to shake hands with Wang Cheng: "Okay, Wang Cheng, we finally met." I am the major shareholder of Hongxing, Liu Xing! Hope we can have a good time together. ”
Wang Cheng snorted, stretched out his hand and shook the other party, and then sat down quietly and asked lightly, "What about the contract?" ”
Shen Shenghui handed the folder in his hand to Wang Cheng: "This is a contract." ”
Wang Cheng took it and looked at it carefully.
Liu Xing and several other company executives on the opposite side all looked at each other when they saw this.
They have also cooperated with many celebrity artists before, but it is basically rare for a celebrity artist to read the contract by himself, basically the agent and a professional lawyer help to check it, and finally sign it by themselves.
Rubik's Cube Entertainment has also read the contract, and the lawyer has also reviewed it, and Wang Cheng came over just to go through the process.
But......
Wang Cheng really read it word by word, page by page, it didn't look like it was pretending.
Liu Xing and Shen Shenghui both looked at Wang Cheng in surprise, and they both wanted to ask - can you understand?
After all, Wang Cheng is only nineteen years old, and he became a trainee after graduating from high school, does he understand the terms of the contract? Do you know the law?
However, several people did not ask.
No one dared to publicly offend Wang Cheng here.
After two minutes, Shen Shenghui asked in a low voice, "Wang Cheng, do you want a lawyer to help you interpret it?" ”
Wang Cheng continued to look at it and said lightly: "No! ”
He dared to say that he knew better than a lawyer.
Because, in his previous life, he personally drafted this kind of contract, and even because he played a lawyer, he went to take the judicial examination, and he took the lawyer's qualification certificate seriously.
And the legal provisions of this world are almost the same as those in his memory.
Hearing Wang Cheng say no, Shen Shenghui didn't say much, and whispered to Liu Xing: "Mr. Liu, have you contacted the advertising company?" ”
Liu Xing quickly said: "Director Shen, don't worry, I have all been contacted, it is an old friend of mine, and he promised to do me a favor." It's already in the magic capital, and filming will start tomorrow, how is Wang Cheng's work prepared? ”
Shen Shenghui shook his head and said, "I don't know, I won't know until I ask Wang Cheng later......"
Liu Xing frowned slightly, made a worse plan, and then sighed deeply, his eyes full of worry.
This time, he is desperate, if he fails, Wang Cheng's endorsement cannot boost sales, then he will go bankrupt and become a liar.
After a while......
Liu Xing and Shen Shenghui were drinking tea and looking at their mobile phones.
Wang Cheng suddenly looked at Liu Xing and asked, "Give me ten percent of the sales share?" And permanently? ”
Liu Xingleng paused for a moment, then quickly nodded and said, "Yes, our company wants to cooperate with you for a long time." This contract expires and we hope to renew it, so we give you a 10% share of the sale! ”
He did not say that this part of the division was previously for Rubik's Cube entertainment, which could increase the possibility of successful cooperation.
Wang Cheng was still expressionless, but Liu Xing's nervous hands were clenched together.
Immediately, Wang Cheng asked again: "How much is your company worth now?" ”
Liu Xing smiled bitterly: "The overall value is about one billion!" ”
Wang Cheng: "What about debts?" ”
The atmosphere in the office became oppressive and serious.
A pair of eyes looked at Wang Cheng, and there was no longer the contempt and doubt just now, the appearance and momentum of this nineteen-year-old boy seemed to be like a big man who had been successful in the business world for many years, and he seemed to see the inside story of their trading clearly.
Liu Xing did not hide it, these are all things that can be found by the outside world, and replied: "The debt is about 900 million!" ”
Wang Cheng said lightly: "In other words, he is almost insolvent?" How many years have you lost money? ”
Liu Xing's forehead was already overflowing with beads of sweat, he didn't dare to look at Wang Cheng's eyes, he felt a huge pressure, glanced at Shen Shenghui, and saw that Shen Shenghui was also full of nervousness, and still replied truthfully: "It's been three years of loss!" ”
Shen Shenghui said with a strong smile: "Wang Cheng, Mr. Liu's company is still powerful!" ”
Wang Cheng ignored Shen Shenghui, and just continued to ask: "I read that it is written in the contract, you will give 60 million for one year, sign a contract for one and a half years, and pay all the endorsement fees at one time, a total of 90 million." After paying this money, how much money do you have left for production and R&D? ”
Liu Xing replied with a wry smile again: "I'm running out of money......"
Wang Cheng nodded and asked definitely, "Your brand is called Hongxing?" ”
Liu Xing nodded affirmatively: "Yes, it's called Hongxing!" Originally, I wanted to be called Hongxing, but I didn't pass, so I took a homonym called Hongxing. I hope our brand can stand like our red flag! ”
Wang Cheng was not interested in Liu Xing's story, but only had a preliminary understanding.
Although, he is not picky about endorsements or anything, and it doesn't matter what brand it is.
However, that doesn't mean he's willing to be kept in the dark and willing to know nothing.
After learning about the Hongxing brand, Wang Cheng took a closer look at the details of the contract.
Liu Xing and Shen Shenghui both looked at Wang Cheng nervously, afraid that Wang Cheng would refuse the endorsement contract after learning about the strength and situation of Hongxing Company.
If Wang Cheng refused, none of them could force Wang Cheng to sign the contract.
But!
Another half hour passed.
Wang Cheng took a cursory look at some important treaty details, there are no pitfalls, the terms of the contract are very loose, he only needs to create a song at the beginning as an advertising song debut, and it is enough to shoot an advertisement in the next year, and the copyright of the song also belongs to Wang Cheng personally, but the Hongxing brand has the right to use advertising.
Neither side thought of setting any trap for Wang Cheng in the contract.
The contract is only one and a half years, which is the same as Wang Cheng's brokerage appointment.
If the Hongxing brand goes bankrupt and goes out of business, then the contract will automatically end, and the endorsement fee will not be refunded, and Wang Cheng will not bear any responsibilities and obligations, and automatically has nothing to do with Hongxing.
As for the 10 percent!
Wang Cheng didn't care.
Because, although this brand is somewhat similar to the Hongxing in the world in his memory, he doesn't know what the fate of this Hongxing will be in the future.
If it goes out of business, then the so-called 10 percent achievement is meaningless.
If he hadn't gone out of business, Wang Cheng would have had a long-term meal ticket.
Even if he succeeds, he doesn't care, anyway, he is not short of money, no matter how much money he has, it is just a number to him.
"That's it!"
Wang Cheng said suddenly, and then stretched out his hand to Shen Shenghui.
Shen Shenghui paused for a moment and looked at Wang Cheng suspiciously.
Liu Xing and the others on the opposite side also looked at Wang Cheng with wide eyes......
Wang Cheng said lightly: "Pen! ”
Shen Shenghui reacted instantly, hurriedly took the pre-prepared signature pen from the side, and handed it to Wang Cheng with both hands: "Give!" ”
Liu Xing said with a flushed face excitedly: "Wang Cheng, don't worry, we will definitely work hard to prevent you from suffering losses." ”
Liu Xing's heart was full of confidence again.
He has already negotiated a loan with the bank, and asked a relative to borrow a sum of money, just waiting for Wang Cheng to sign a contract, so that they can see the possibility of the company's success, and then the company's new design and technology can be rolled out to production and listed!
The continuous losses in the past few years are due to the fact that Hongxing is researching new styles and technologies, and now it is quickly self-contained and has been recognized by some officials.
It's just that Liu Xing wanted to be a blockbuster, so he paid a great price to sign Wang Cheng.
If you don't succeed, you will be benevolent!
Either soar or go bankrupt.
Wang Cheng glanced at Liu Xing, didn't speak, just wrote his name and handed it to the other party.
Liu Xing looked at it, confirmed that the contract was still the original one, and also wrote his name on it, then stood up and stretched out his hand to Wang Cheng: "Wang Cheng, happy cooperation!" ”
Wang Cheng also stood up and shook hands with Liu Xing gently, quickly separated, did not speak, turned around directly and picked up his things and walked out.
When the work was over, he left work.
Liu Xing hurriedly asked, "Wang Cheng, where is the new song?" ”
Wang Cheng didn't look back, but said softly: "The materials are ready to be handed over to me." ”
Liu Xing looked at Wang Cheng's back: "Okay, I'll hand it over to Director Shen in the evening and let Director Shen give it to you." ”
Wang Cheng didn't respond, he had already walked to the elevator, ready to return the same way, and go back to the apartment dormitory to rest.
And in the office, everyone looked at each other.
Shen Shenghui didn't go to see Wang Cheng, there was a car waiting for Wang Cheng downstairs, he didn't have to send it, looked at Liu Xing and said: "Congratulations to Mr. Liu, I wish us a happy cooperation!" ”
Liu Xing shook hands with Shen Shenghui and said with emotion: "Wang Cheng is really as confident as the legend!" ”
After all, it is a partner, and it is difficult for him to say that Wang Cheng is playing a big name and no one in his eyes, so he can only say that he is very confident......
Shen Shenghui shook his head and said, "He has always been like this, and we can't help it." ”
After speaking, Shen Shenghui also wanted to say goodbye, he didn't think that Hongxing could survive, Liu Xing's bankruptcy was imminent, and it was not worth his reception.
Liu Xing didn't want to stay longer, after the signing was over, he just wanted to go back as soon as possible to start the rhythm of launching new products, and said goodbye at the moment: "Director Shen, then I will leave first." The information of our company's products, I will ask someone to send it to you later, please transfer it to Wang Cheng, and let him help us create suitable works as soon as possible. ”
He is confident in Wang Cheng's creative ability, he has heard every song released by Wang Cheng and likes it very much, so he will make such a request and is willing to pay 10% of the sales share.
Shen Shenghui: "Okay, I'll give my assistant a warning, and when the time comes, they will hand it over, and let my assistant send it to Wang Cheng." ”
Liu Xing smiled, knowing that he was not qualified to let Shen Shenghui pay attention to it now, and said immediately: "Okay, it's troublesome Director Shen." ”
Shen Shenghui: "Don't bother, this is my job!" ”
The two faked a polite exchange, and Liu Xing got up and left with a few subordinates.
Shen Shenghui also let out a sigh of relief, and a smile overflowed on his face.
He had been worried about Wang Cheng's refusal to sign just now.
Then he's gone.
OK.
Wang Cheng is as he thinks - conceited!
Such a brand that is about to go out of business also dares to sign a contract.
Then Wang Cheng will have to bear the consequences himself.
A brand that few people know about has quickly gone out of business......
That is definitely a big blow to Wang Cheng's image.
Shen Shenghui smiled again, got up and walked to his office, and personally posted a message on the Internet: "Wang Cheng's concert is suspended. ”
Many viewers on the Internet who are waiting to buy tickets to watch Wang Cheng's concert tomorrow are puzzled.
"Good guys, you had a concert when I was at work, I had time to rest, you stopped, what do you mean? Is it against the office worker student party? Isn't the office worker student party worthy of watching Wang Cheng's concert? ”
"Why? I finally rested, and I was finally able to watch a concert by Wang Cheng, why did I stop? ”
"Crazy, Wang Cheng is crazy, Rubik's Cube Entertainment is crazy!"
"I don't understand the operation...... The concert starts at 10 a.m. on weekdays, but it doesn't open on weekends...... It's the other way around. ”
"Lost mind!"
……
Shen Shenghui took a cursory look at some news, saw a scolding, and had mixed feelings.
Someone scolded Wang Cheng, which he wanted to see.
However, it was because Wang Cheng would not hold a concert tomorrow that he was scolded.
These people, forgot that they complained about the most expensive concert tickets in the world before?
Forgot what I said before about boycotting Wang Cheng and taking off the powder?
Now that there is no concert, you are also scolding ......?
Is it really love and black?
Complex networks.
Shen Shenghui shook his head and didn't think about it.
……
And Liu Xing left Rubik's Cube Entertainment with a few company executives, and immediately began to arrange: "I have officially signed a contract with Wang Cheng, and I will release the news immediately!" At the same time, the new project was launched immediately, and the bank loan and a loan were received immediately. ”
Several executives sprang into action.
Immediately, the news of Wang Cheng's endorsement of Hongxingdi was released on the official WeChat.
Hongxing's official micro is only paid attention to by tens of thousands of people, and it can be said to be one of the worst brand official micro-channels.
But.
When Hongxing's official Weibo released a message: "Welcome Wang Cheng to become our company's chief brand image spokesperson, I wish us a happy cooperation!" ”
As soon as the news was sent, it was sent.
It was an instant sensation.
But.
The first time everyone saw the news, they were all puzzled and questioned!
- Hongxing?
What is it?
Can you eat it?
