Chapter 49: The New Top-notch
Shi Wanxi: "Originally, I didn't think about it. But when you say that, there's really something you need to help with. ”
Lin Songmian regretted it in his heart and wanted to slap his mouth, but he still forced a smile on his face: "Say, what's the matter?" ”
Shi Wanxi: "I have a classmate who works in the marketing department of Meiya, a well-known domestic beauty company. Their company has always wanted to ask you to be an endorsement, you see......"
Lin Songmian looked embarrassed: "My endorsements are all Sister Ling......"
Shi Wanxi didn't let him continue: "I know that the people you endorsed before were all international first-line brands. However, as a domestic brand that has risen strongly in the past two years, Meiya's popularity and sales are not inferior to international brands, and the word-of-mouth reputation is also very good, which can be described as the light of domestic products. As a Chinese, how can you not support your country's brand? ”
Lin Songmian was finally persuaded by her and agreed to take over the endorsement. However, Lin Songmian asked Shi Wanxi a question that seemed inexplicable to her: "It was your grandmother last time, and your classmate this time, when can you make a request to me for yourself?" ”
Shi Wanxi: "Me? Don't even think about it. The old lady has long seen through the red dust, no desire and no desire, the six roots are pure, and the four are empty. ”
Lin Songmian: "......"
After receiving Shi Wanxi's call, Yang Zhenzhen was so excited that she almost jumped up from her chair: "Really? Lin Songmian agreed to make our spokesperson? Xiaoxi, you are so nice, how can I thank you! ”
Shi Wanxi smiled: "Thank you...... Wait until you become the director and invite me to dinner. ”
Vera Yang: "Director...... How do you know what our boss said that whoever can invite Lin Songmian to be the spokesperson will be promoted to director? ”
Shi Wanxi: "Uh...... I guess. ”
Yang Zhenzhen: "That...... Lin Songmian endorses us, are there any additional conditions? ”
Shi Wanxi: "If you have the conditions...... There really is. That is, your brand should ask Kong Zi to be the spokesperson at the same time. You also know that the living environment of female celebrities is too harsh now, and for short-term sales, beauty brands are swarming to ask male celebrities to be endorsements. But in fact, female celebrities are the most suitable for endorsing beauty products, and cosmetics for women are of course suitable for girls to endorse. ”
Kong Zi is also a first-line flower now, and Meiya naturally will not refuse such a spokesperson. As a contracted artist of the company, her, Huanxi Sand Company helped her receive business, and the company also had to take a cut of the remuneration. After selling favors and making money, Shi Wanxi felt that she really didn't need to be too clever.
Gu Hanyun's "painstaking" masterpiece "The Men of Chaoyang Street" was finally edited. Gu Hanyun naturally did not hesitate to spend a lot of money on post-publicity, so the broadcast platform also looked forward to the show.
It's just that at the internal viewing meeting, the rating of this drama is not high, so the video website and the producer Gu's Group signed a sharing contract, that is, the platform and the producer share the broadcast revenue after the drama is broadcast, rather than a buyout contract signed like "Get My Apricot" and "Autumn Warm World", that is, the platform pays a one-time fee to the producer.
But Gu Hanyun is very confident in his work, he thinks that the series will definitely become a big hit after it is broadcast, and he is afraid that he will have to collect money and receive a soft hand. He even said that he was reluctant to let the platform buy out such a good series.
After Gu Hanyun signed the contract with the platform, when the file was finalized, the two sides clashed. Gu Hanyun is interested in the prime time of the summer, but the platform said that the summer file will be a drama produced by the Jiang Group, "The Taste of Sorrow in Youth", which is also a work promoted by the Jiang Group. The platform hopes that "The Men of Chaoyang Street" can be postponed, just in time to take over "Young and Sorrowful".
Gu Hanyun has always been domineering as a capital party, where can he stand such grievances. What's more, "The Men of Chaoyang Street" is his favorite. On one side is the Gu family, on the other side is the Jiang family, and no one on the two capital platforms wants to offend, so it was finally decided that the two dramas would be broadcast at the same time, and as for the ratings, it would depend on their strength.
Gu Hanyun's turmoil was so big that everyone in the industry knew about it. Shi Wanxi couldn't help but learn about the situation of the series "Young Don't Know the Taste of Sorrow", and when she saw the name of the starring Fu Baicheng, Shi Wanxi couldn't help frowning slightly.
This is the first film and television drama that Fu Baicheng starred in, and the configuration is extremely high, it is obvious that "Young People Don't Know the Taste of Sorrow" was filmed by Jiang in order to support Fu Baicheng. Prior to this, Jiang specially created a singing and dancing variety show for Fu Baicheng to make his debut, and later in the variety show "Guess Who I Am", he also served as a flying guest in several episodes. It can be said that Jiang has made a lot of money to support him.
Shi Wanxi remembered that in the previous cycle, Fu Baicheng made a strong debut, and soon after his debut, he directly grabbed Lin Songmian's top position. It seems that this Fu Baicheng has a lot of background. Shi Wanxi once asked Chen Cheng about Fu Baicheng's situation, and Chen Cheng said: "His background is ...... It seems to be quite ordinary, his father is in business, but the scale of the business is not large. I don't know how to be taken by Jiang's family. If you want to talk about his appearance, I feel that it is really average, and it can't be compared with Lin Songmian. ”
Shi Wanxi was a little unhappy: "If you say Fu Baicheng, just say Fu Baicheng, don't keep talking about Lin Songmian." ”
How could Chen Cheng let go of this opportunity to eat melons: "Hey, are you and Lin Songmian real?" As our insider, shouldn't you also have a bit of self-dedication and sacrifice to provide us with some real insider information? ”
"Of course it's fake, how can it be real." Shi Wanxi tried to make her tone seem casual.
Chen Cheng: "Okay. Actually, I think it's good that you two are really good. You see that you want money and money now, and if you want fame, you will be famous, and there is a lack of a man around you, parentheses, it is a handsome man like Lin Songmian. ”
Shi Wanxi: "You still don't care about my business, if you have time to keep an eye on this Fu Baicheng, I always feel that he is not so simple." ”
Combined with the experience of the previous cycle, the only thing that Shi Wanxi can be sure of at present is that Fu Baicheng will be the artist highly praised by the Jiang Group, and it will also be the most important cash cow of the Jiang family in the future, so the Jiang family will never allow anyone to stand in his way. Thinking of this section, a smile appeared on the corner of Shi Wanxi's mouth.
As Gu Hanyun expected, as soon as "The Men of Chaoyang Street" was broadcast, it caused a huge sensation. Weibo and the circle of friends are almost all discussing "The Men of Chaoyang Street", but on the other hand, there are few viewers of "Young and Sorrowful", there is no splash, and almost no one knows the existence of this drama.
However, most of the popularity of "The Men of Chaoyang Street" comes from negative evaluations, I thought that the original novel was already the oil king of the Middle East, but after being adapted into a drama version, many people who have read the original book exclaimed, compared with the drama version, what is the original novel? It's just a little fresh and cute, and the three views are invincible and positive.
