Chapter 82: Company Layout

"Carmela, I didn't expect you to move out now."

"yes, we want you to host next week's 'Beautiful Woman.'"

Early on the weekend, Tang De heard the voices of his neighbors downstairs, who had been coming to Tang De's house often lately, and from time to time they had given gifts to their two younger brothers.

But when they arrived today, they found that Carmela had already begun to pack her things and prepare to move.

This can't help but make them very regretful.

"Yes, I also told Tang De that there is no need to move so quickly. But you know, Luis and Regias are going to start school, and Donde says they need a better education. ”

Fanny and Cagalli agree with this reason.

"It's true that we're not bad here, but the good schools aren't. To be honest, I've been wanting to move recently, have you heard? Recently, there have been several shootings in the black neighborhood next to us, and it's scary! ”

"Yes, I heard that it's another gang fight, and it's been fighting for a while before, and it hasn't stopped yet! Those damn nigga! ”

"Shh Carmela hurried to stop Cagalli's racism.

"Okay, okay." Cagalli craned her neck and stopped talking, while Donde, upstairs, frowned.

Isn't the war between Fez and the Wild Dog over? But is it really long-lasting, do you have to attract the attention of the government and ask the police to take them to the nest?

But when you think about it, the government won't do that, after all, fighting crime costs lives, and white police men are not willing to give up their lives for the sake of black disputes.

The neighbors didn't stay long at Donde's house before leaving, but Carmela gave them some gifts in return for their care during this time.

That night, the family sat in Donde's car and left the neighborhood with the truck to their new home in Manhattan.

For the next two days, Don De had been settling into his new home, and when he returned to the office, he found that Cayden and Cindy had returned.

"Boss! I miss you so much! "Kaiden was wearing a shiny leather skirt, and as soon as they met, he gave Don De a big kiss.

After she finished hugging, Cindy, who was wearing white trousers, also stepped forward and hugged Tang De.

"It's getting more and more like a female star." Tang De smiled and looked at Kane, the agent next to them: "Is everything going well?" ”

Kane was a new hire he had recruited, a former UTA (United Elite Agency) employee who returned to New York from Los Angeles for family reasons and was spotted by Donde.

His experience is still quite rich, whether it is contract matters or route planning, he is more adept, but he has no resources in New York, but if he had a lot of resources in New York, he would have been hired by various brokerage companies with high salaries, and it would not be the turn of the angel declaration.

"Smooth, this time I shot a total of five magazines, and I also received an invitation to model the catwalk, I was about to talk to you about it!" Kane followed Donde up to the second floor and into the office.

Jimmy also came in and listened to the conversation between the two.

Tang De looked through the contracts handed over by Kane, and then pointed to one of them and said: "The others can not be taken so seriously, but this one, Victoria's Secret, must help the two of them negotiate." ”

The Victoria's Secret fashion show began in 1990 as a Valentine's Day sales boost and has since evolved into a nationwide extravaganza.

And since 90 years it has grown in fame, with footprints in Miami, Los Angeles and Cannes.

However, after the fashion show reached a partnership with CBS, it will now be held more often at the Lightsington Avenue Arsenal in New York.

So after seeing Victoria's Secret's invitation, Don immediately decided to take it, which is the best stage for Cayden and Cindy, and later Lilina and others.

One walk is enough for men all over the United States to know her.

"Okay, don't worry, boss, it was originally in my arrangement, and this is also the most important matter." Kane nodded in agreement, and then the group chatted about Cayden and Cindy's future plans.

At present, the photo albums of the two have been shipped and sold to the United Kingdom, France, Tokyo and other places, and they have accumulated a lot of fame in the United States, but such fame cannot be limited to photos and magazines, and must be realized as soon as possible.

For example, filming movies, TV series, and variety shows to further enhance their popularity in the circle.

Therefore, Tang De asked Kane to negotiate contracts for several TV series or variety shows as soon as possible, and quickly increase the commercial value of the two by using the fame of the photo.

After Kane left, Jimmy also reported to Donde: "David Dion, the president of Hengmei Advertising, called through his secretary and said that he wanted to visit him this afternoon. ”

"David Dion?" Tang De frowned, this person he was not familiar with: "What is he coming for?" ”

"I don't know, maybe you want to talk to us about cooperation? It can't be a war letter, let's not steal business with him. Jimmy pouted and laughed.

"Regardless of him, who knows if he brings a surprise or a 'surprise'?" Tang De waved his hand: "By the way, is the downstairs cleaned up?" ”

"Pack it up, we can move in tomorrow."

What Tang De said was to move the Supreme Creative Company downstairs and vacate the top for Angel Declaration, after all, the business of the two companies was gradually separated, and each had to have its own workstation.

Moreover, each floor of the independent building where Tang De is currently located is very large, and there is enough space to arrange, Tang De plans to build the second floor according to the decoration of the star studio, and set up a dressing room, a rest room and an office area respectively to make use of the space.

This is undoubtedly a lot of work, so he has already asked Jimmy to find a renovation company.

"Oh, by the way, buy me another sofa and put it in the office on the second floor."

After saying this, Jimmy immediately showed an expression that all men understand: "I understand, the red sofa rules, right?" ”

"Fuck off!" Don kicked Jimmy, and Jimmy immediately laughed and ran out the door.

Donde turned back to sit back in his office chair, Angel Declare that he currently owns ninety-five percent of the shares, and Jimmy holds five percent. Of course, for this he paid his hard work in the past few months and 80% of the dividends.

And Tang De doesn't plan to find any more investors, because the money he gets from publishing photos is enough to support this company for the time being, and as long as Kayden and Cindy successfully realize their commercial value, this company will become a money-absorbing weapon.

Therefore, Tang De's current focus is still on the highest idea, and he once again took out 80% of the company's profits during this time, and invested it in several important cities in the United States except New York. For example, Los Angeles, Chicago, etc.

New York's local high-end brands are in the hands of major companies, and it is difficult to poach them, and Tangde cannot wait for them to end their contracts before competing, and must continue to expand the business territory of the supreme idea.

But the profit earned at the moment is not enough, and even if it is all invested, it will only be enough for a few months. So Don told Jimmy to find a third-party company, paid $30,000, and investigated IPG's current customer base.

He needed more customers who could provide cash flow, and it just so happened that IPG hit the gun, and of course he couldn't let go of this guy who tried to buy employees to copy the highest creative inspiration.

Therefore, after screening customers and judging the signing date, they found the most suitable heavyweight customers from IPG's customer base.

An advertising contract worth millions of customers, a legendary brand in the camera world, Leica cameras.

This is Tang De's old business, the photography industry, he is too familiar with it.

Therefore, when he saw this customer, Tang De immediately decided to take it down as the first shot against IPG.

As for the negotiation with Leica Camera, Tang De intends to hand over to the company's second new employee, the former gold medal salesman Fernando.

He used to work for many well-known advertising agencies around the world, and now that he is old, he plans to return to New York to work and retire.

And the reason why he chose Supreme Creative was because he saw the ad and thought it was interesting, so he came to the company to talk about it.

Tang De recognized his resume and experience, and he needed such a sophisticated sales to make up for the company's youthful shortcomings, so he kept it with an annual salary higher than the market.

Now that he has chosen the customer, it is time for him to shine.

In the office, Fernando was sorting out the materials he needed, and when he saw Tang De coming in, he immediately greeted him: "Don, seeing that you are in such a hurry, there must be something to say." ”

"That's right, I picked a client, but it's behind closed doors right now." Tang De leaned in front of the door with a somewhat embarrassed expression.

"Haha." Fernando's white and lush hair trembled a few times with a smile: "No, Don, you're wrong. Our customers' doors are always open to us, as long as we give them what they need. ”

"You're right, Fernando, have you ever been in the camera industry before?" Tang De approached and found that the table top was neatly cleaned and tidy.

"Of course, Hasselblad, Nikon, Canon, I have negotiated, to be honest, the requirements of the camera brand are quite high." Fernando shrugged his shoulders and smoothed out the folded items with his hands and stuffed them into folders.

"We're looking at Leica this time." Tang De crossed his arms and said: "They signed a biennial agreement with IPG before, and now there are three months left before it expires. I don't know if IPG has signed up with them, so I need you to look into it. ”

"No problem, Don, but I think you want more than just an investigation." Fernando chuckled, "I'll try to pull them over, but it's up to you to be creative." ”

"Of course, Supreme Ideas never disappoint."

In the afternoon, Tang De, who was busy with the company's chores, met David Dion in the office.

"Hello, Don."

"Hello, David."

When the two sat down, Tang De was a little puzzled, the president of Hengmei Advertising didn't seem to be in a very good state.

There are faint red blood in his eyes, dark circles under his eyes are a little heavy, and although his hair is neat but not carefully groomed, he does not look like the president of a listed company, but like a low-level worker who has been suppressed.

And as soon as they met, before they could say a few words, he couldn't wait to get straight to the point: "Tang, in fact, this time I came here, I actually wanted to talk to you about the acquisition or investment in private." ”

"Acquisitions? Investment? Tang De frowned at the expression that you were teasing me: "I'm sorry, David, I don't want it." ”
