Chapter 221 I Want to Fight for My Life (asking for monthly tickets)

"So, they only plan to sign me for one year. This is too insulting." Hao Yun was very angry.

"One million per year. If the endorsement is good, I will pay more to renew the contract."

"It doesn't matter whether I make money or not. I want to fight for my reputation and prove that I'm amazing. The sales of the things I endorse will definitely be good. Look at the Wenquxing repeater and the Geek Cookies. They're both so awesome that they have no friends."

Hao Yun looked like he was about to smear feces on the wall.

If it's one million for two years, then it's definitely a loss. There will be at least two number one TV series next year, and they will all be good dramas with huge investments and excellent production.

TV dramas are the things that can best increase national popularity.

"Okay, then you can endorse China Star Mobile. If we can continue the contract next year, we can raise the price again."

"So do I have to use Chinastar mobile phones from now on?"

Hao Yun took out two identical Sony Ericsson T618s and felt like crying but had no tears.

"That's perfect. We can each get one later, which can be considered as an employee benefit." Shi Xiaoqiang gave a thumbs up.

"No, since we're the spokesperson, it's best for the entire team to use Zhongxing phones. If you give a phone to Hao Yun to answer, and someone takes a picture of him using another brand, the sponsor will be unhappy." Wu Laoliu said seriously.

"Fuck, my Nokia," Shi Xiaoqiang said speechlessly, "Boss, do you feel guilty about endorsing this kind of domestic mobile phone that often breaks down?"

Most domestic manufacturers these days started out as OEM agents.

The mobile phone technology is not up to par and we are unwilling to invest huge amounts of money in research and development. Even if we do, it will be difficult to catch up with foreign countries in a short period of time.

Therefore, the return rate of domestic machines is generally higher than that of foreign brands.

"Yes, it stings, but after becoming the endorsement, my wallet doesn't hurt anymore." Hao Yun said confidently.

Besides, domestically produced phones are at least cheaper, otherwise why could they sell domestically produced phones for 53% of the market share?

Is it because of love?
"The brand will send a batch of mobile phones over by then. At least we don't have to spend money to buy them. We can either give the current mobile phones to friends or use them among our family members." Wu Laoliu made the final decision. He now manages several celebrities and has considerable authority.

"What is the other endorsement?" Hao Yun was speechless.

"Yichun Clothing, there's nothing much to say about this endorsement. They pay 1.5 million for two years. It's the same as the mobile phone. You'll have to wear their clothes more often in the future, but they should all be specially customized for you so that you can wear them more stylishly."

Wu Laoliu’s second endorsement is also very powerful.

After the several TV series he filmed next year are broadcast, Hao Yun's endorsement fee will definitely reach two to three million, reaching the level of Zhao Yanzi two years ago, and joining the ranks of first- and second-tier stars.

But time waits for no one.

The "wait" in "wait for the price to be set" cannot be simply understood as waiting. "Waiting" is a process of seeking market recognition and self-examination.

You have to earn the money you deserve. At worst, you can not renew the contract after two years, or ask for more money.

"Fuck, what an idiot! I earned two and a half million in one go." Hao Yun breathed a long sigh of relief. It was like the song of a liberated serf.

"Pay taxes! Don't you want to pay taxes?" Neither Wu Laoliu nor Hao Yun had the guts to do that.

"Of course I will pay it!" Hao Yun was the most enthusiastic in paying taxes.

The quality of the mobile phones I endorse may not be very good, and I feel guilty about it. So I pay a little more tax to the country, which can give me peace of mind.

For the mobile phone endorsement, Hao Yun paid 100 yuan in taxes out of the 31.3 million yuan, paid wages and bonuses to Wu Laoliu and Shi Xiaoqiang, and after deducting a little over 10 yuan, he got about 58 yuan.

As the spokesperson for Yishun, Hao Yun paid 150 yuan in taxes out of the 47.3 million yuan, and some of it had to be divided among his two brothers. After deducting a little over 15 yuan, Hao Yun received about 87 yuan.

I paid 700,000 or 800,000 yuan in cash directly, but after receiving it, half of it was missing.

I finally understand why those celebrities keep their tears secret.

If the salary from "New Police Story" is included, his original salary was around 90.

After receiving the endorsement fee, Hao Yun’s total assets reached more than 230 million.

Hao Yun also has some prize money from participating in competitions, but he also has miscellaneous travel expenses, house rent, car use, office calls, etc. It would be good if these two could offset each other.

However, with a net worth of more than 2003 million, in the winter of , Hao Yun could really be said to be not poor at all.

"After investing 500,000 yuan in a movie, there is still 1.8 million yuan left. What do you think we should use this money to buy?" Hao Yun, a poor man who suddenly became rich, didn't know how to spend the money.

"It must be marketing!" Wu Laoliu said without hesitation.

He didn't talk about buying a house or a car or something like that. That was too low-class and it was not the time to enjoy life yet.

This is just like when you get good equipment in a game, you can't just sell it after getting it. You have to equip yourself and challenge higher monsters to get better equipment, and become stronger like a snowball.

"How much is the appropriate amount to spend on marketing?" Hao Yun did not say in a high-handed manner that he did not know how to market.

Believe it or not, when you are competing with others for a role, others will directly smear you and hire a dozen children of different skin colors to hug your legs and call you daddy.

Nowadays, every star needs marketing, unless you are not famous at all.

Hao Yun is very self-aware. Once "Blood Romance" and "The World's Number One" are officially announced, he will become an instant hit. If both TV series become popular, then he will be ready to face the six major sects besieging him, Yang Dingtian.

You have to start marketing early. Let passers-by know you and fall in love with you.

If you are popular with passers-by, then if someone really tries to slander you, passers-by will help you to criticize him to death with just a little guidance.

"Generally, marketing expenses are controlled at around 12%. Some people love marketing, while others don't need it. It depends on the individual. For us, I suggest you spend 30 yuan on marketing first, and then focus on building momentum after your album is released."

Wu Laoliu and Shi Xiaoqiang had already calculated this account.

This is the conclusion drawn after comprehensively considering Hao Yun's situation and comparing it with competitors of the same level.

But if you want to deal with someone, if you want to mobilize your forces to attack others, then the marketing expenses will be out of control.

Some top stars spend millions a year on marketing.

Grab a role or endorsement and you can recoup your costs.

"Okay, take 30 as marketing funds, and there will be 150 million left." Hao Yun was heartbroken but determined.

Everywhere I look, I see strong enemies.

We must make our own firepower stronger.

In fact, he had no idea what 30 yuan could be used for. Anyway, he was not worried that the two brothers would spend the money and do nothing but perfunctorily handle the matter.

The real big money is yet to come.

These two people, one is a small boss of props business with an annual salary of hundreds of thousands, and the other is a university teacher who earns tens of thousands a year and is still decent.

Not much better than ordinary people.

They left their comfort zone and came to follow Hao Yun to eat coarse food, and it was definitely not for the small amount of money of a few hundred thousand or so.

"150 million, I have to keep some for backup, and then I can consider buying a nanny car. It's really a bit shabby for the leading man to not even have a nanny car."

Wu Laoliu thought about it and realized that there were many places where money needed to be spent, but for celebrities, a good car did not just mean enjoyment, it also represented face.

In China, face can sometimes play a huge role.

"Oh, by the way, Chen Guanxi gave me a BMW Z4 sports car, but I haven't picked it up from the dealer yet." Hao Yun took out the file bag, bringing the documents and power of attorney, and Wu Laoliu could also go and pick it up.

“……”Wu Laoliu was shocked.

"How come I don't know? Did you slept with him?" Shi Xiaoqiang was speechless.

"You're already broke this month and you just got a little income. Do you want to give up even the bonus?" Hao Yun wanted to pull out his tongue and wrap it around his neck a few times.

"BMW Z4, then you still have to buy a nanny car. This thing is just a toy. It's good for picking up girls, but it's still a little bit useless for work."

Wu Laoliu felt it was a pity, but he couldn't bring himself to ask Hao Yun to ask Chen Guanxi to replace him.

Face is very important, and our sister Hao also has to have some face.

"Go back first and ask the dealer if you can exchange your BMW Z4 for cash, and then spend some extra money to buy a better nanny car." Hao Yun has no obsession with BMW.

The Z4 is just an entry-level sports car.

As for whether selling my brother's gift would hurt his feelings...

But forget it, if you are so easily sad, you are not Chen Guanxi.

And even if he has a Z4, Hao Yun will definitely drive a Mazda when he picks him up next time. He is so willful.

"Uh... okay." Wu Laoliu had nothing to say.

With this, the endorsement matter came to an end. The contract should be signed and the advertising materials should be prepared. Hao Yun will then return to participate in the filming.

However, it was quite unexpected that Zhongxing invited Hao Yun to visit their headquarters.

Hao Yun could only understand that state-owned enterprises like formalism.

By then there will definitely be photo taking and other things, and maybe even some meetings to attend.

Of course it's impossible to refuse.

Hao Yun would not refuse any request from his financial sponsor as long as it did not involve innocence issues.

Chapter 22 of the Laozi says, "He who does not show off himself is therefore clear; he who does not think highly of himself is therefore prominent; he who does not boast of himself is therefore meritorious; he who does not boast of himself is superior."

Don’t be arrogant, that’s why you are great!

The only scene left for Hao Yun in Hong Kong was the finale on the rooftop, and all the indoor scenes had also been filmed.

It will probably take two or three days to complete the shoot.

He finished filming earlier, and the whole drama will be wrapped up in mid-November. The total shooting time is less than two months, but it is considered a long time for Hong Kong movies.
