In Huayu, the career reward is spy

Chapter 142 The Asian superstar who is crazy about making money!
Late at night, Ji Yu was in his room thinking about how to arrange Lemon.

The arrangement of a song is very important to whether it is good or not.

Of course lyrics are also very important, some songs have great arrangements but are ruined by the lyrics.

For example, the prelude and arrangement of Love Business are really amazing, but the lyrics are really hard to comment on.

The prelude to the love transaction is really amazing.

At this time, Ji Yu was humming "Carrying a Debt of Conscience" while arranging the music using the arranging software.

Sometimes he was busy tinkering with the computer, sometimes he was tinkering with various musical instruments, and he was as busy as an ant crawling around.

These instruments were sent by Rolling Stone and are used to arrange music for Ji Yu.

The arrangement needs to be completed quickly, and we also have to record the songs. The release of the single also takes time, and we will try to fully release it before July.

Ji Yu spent the entire night tinkering in his room to finally finish the arrangement.

Writing a song is very simple, you can write it as long as you remember the musical notation and lyrics, but the arrangement is different, this is more complicated.

For many musicians, Ji Yu can finish a piece in just a few hours, which is already rocket speed.

The next morning, Ji Yu was woken up. He had three scenes to shoot today, and after that he could go record songs.

Two shows in the morning and one show in the evening.

The two scenes in the morning were shot in just one hour, and after that Ji Yu went straight to the Rolling Stone Tokyo branch to record songs.

The development of the Rolling Stones in Tokyo is really not that good. It should be said that the Rolling Stones are currently on a downward trend as a whole.

If Ji Yu hadn't appeared to add fuel to the fire, the Rolling Stones would have been in a very embarrassing situation this year.

Too many singers have left the Rolling Stones in the past two years, starting with Li Zongsheng in 2000, and singers have left the Rolling Stones one after another.

During the time Ji Yu was busy filming, Wu Bai and Mo Wenwei also left, so it would probably be difficult to work together again in the future.

The only singers that Rolling Stone can currently produce are Ji Yu, Fish Leong, Mayday, Wan Fang, Richie Jen, Guang Liang and others.

Those singers who were influential in the 1990s are all gone.

Rolling Stone is in a difficult situation right now, which is one of the reasons why Ji Yu was able to receive strong support from Rolling Stone.

If the Rolling Stones don’t introduce some fresh blood, they will really be finished and may even incur losses this year.

Ji Yu and Lao Cai chose to join Rolling Stone because of this.

The foundation of Rolling Stone is still there, and it is still the largest independent music label in Taiwan, Mainland China and Hong Kong. Ji Yu joining Rolling Stone is a timely help!

In the first five years of the Rolling Stones' rapid development, they launched a large number of singers who quickly became famous by singing covers. However, they could not stand the test of time and no one followed them.

At this time, Ji Yu was visiting Rolling Stone Tokyo and felt that the Tokyo branch was about to go bankrupt.

There aren't many people in the company, and everyone looks like they don't have any business.

Fortunately, the recording studio is in good condition and there is no problem in recording the song.

Ji Yu’s arrival has attracted great attention from the people in the branch. Whether the Tokyo branch can survive and continue to exist depends on Ji Yu’s single.

Although Ji Yu is not from the Tokyo branch, the current performance should be counted as that of the Tokyo branch.

In the recording studio, everyone in the branch tried their best to meet the various conditions proposed by Ji Yu. They gave him whatever he wanted, as long as the song was recorded well.

Ji Yu could feel their anxiety, as if they would be fired in the next second.

In the studio, Ji Yu spent several hours recording songs. When he came out to take a break, people from the Tokyo branch came with a bunch of demos.

He looked at Ji Yu eagerly, as if saying, Brother, please release a Japanese album to save us!
Ji Yu put on his headphones and started listening to music before he even finished drinking the water. If there is any song he likes, he can try it. Releasing a Japanese album will also be good for his development.

For singers, Japan is a huge market, a market that can still sell hundreds of thousands of physical albums ten years later, and no singer can ignore it.

However, Ji Yu didn't like many of the songs.

The main reason is that we are not familiar with it and have no experience to borrow.

It seems that the plan to save the Tokyo branch will be delayed.

Ji Yu also wants to save the Tokyo branch, which will be beneficial to his future development in Japan and South Korea.

However, it is even worse to just randomly release a Japanese album, as that would damage one's reputation.

Ji Yu took off his headphones, looked at the other person and said, "I don't have any songs I really like. I'll write a few songs later and you can look for suitable songs."

The other party was very disappointed, but he also understood that releasing an album was not a trivial matter, so he looked at Ji Yu and asked, "Can you tell the head office that you have plans to release a Japanese album? Do you plan to focus on developing the Japanese market in the future?"

Ji Yu couldn't help but laugh and said, "Is the situation in the Tokyo branch so serious?"

"Yes, we have been losing money for four consecutive months. If this continues, we will definitely be laid off."

"Okay, I understand. I'll think about it and give you an answer in a few days. Now you guys should finish this single. I hope it can be a surprise for me and the head office."

Ji Yu is also good at making promises. He will first let the Tokyo branch make his single a hit to see if it can be proven to be a success.

The people in the Tokyo branch also understood that this was a test for Ji Yu, otherwise they would not have chosen to cooperate with the Tokyo branch.

"Don't worry, lemon will definitely become a big hit!"

"Okay, I look forward to it!"

Ji Yu sat in the Tokyo branch for a while and then left as he had to film a movie in the evening.

I hope this single will be a big hit in Tokyo!
The quality of the songs is fine, the rest depends on the marketing and promotion.

Before Ji Yu took the bus back to the hot spring resort, he called Lao Cai to ask her what she was busy with, since she had agreed to go see him.

"How dare you say that? If you hadn't asked me to help you negotiate an endorsement, I would have been so busy that I didn't even have time to eat!"

Ji Yu felt a little embarrassed by Lao Cai's complaint, so he smiled and asked, "When we get home from work, I'll cook for you personally."

Old Cai snorted and said, "At least one month! You don't even know how many endorsements I negotiated for you!"

"Okay, one month is enough. You are my sister after all. Being a brother means being a slave to your sister."

"That's good enough. I won't talk to you anymore. I still have to meet with the brand. I'll come to see you in a few days."

After saying this, Lao Cai hung up the phone and rubbed his temples tiredly, but he quickly cheered up and prepared to meet the brand owner.

Shiseido has already reached an agreement with IWIN Jewelry, and the next target is a local Japanese black tea brand.

The main targets of the subsequent strategy will be Cartier and Ericsson.

Ji Yu is famous enough, but his other qualities are not yet in place. If his fashion resources and endorsement resources cannot keep up, he will easily become out of date.

Only by bundling up enough capital can Ji Yu go further and more steadily!

In the next few days, Ji Yu was busy filming while contacting people to take photos for him.

He spends the whole day in the hot spring center. The pink girls are much busier than him, going out to film and then going back to the hot spring center to film. Sometimes Ji Yu is the only one soaking in the hot springs in the hot spring center.

It was not until the Tokyo scenes were almost finished that Ji Yu started to get busy.

He set off to sign a contract with Fuji TV, and several endorsement signing ceremonies were also waiting for him.

Lao Cai helped him get five endorsements, including Ericsson, Cartier, Shiseido, IWIN Jewelry, and Black Tea.

The total endorsement fees for the five endorsements totaled 78 million! The first three were all Asian endorsements, and the last two were only local Japanese endorsements, with lower fees.

Ji Yu made a lot of money from this move.

Of course, Lao Cai also makes a lot of money. These endorsement companies still take 20% of the profits, which is more than 10 million yuan in share.

Ji Yu didn't feel much about money. Ever since the balance in his card exceeded one million, he became calm.

Now I enjoy the joy of being a superstar even more.

The happiness of being admired by thousands of people and being the center of attention cannot be brought by money alone.

Tokyo, as the most developed international city in Asia, has many advertisements that can be seen everywhere.

Ji Yu sat in the car looking at the large outdoor screens hanging outside. He was looking forward to appearing on these screens in the future and becoming the focus of everyone's attention!
When passersby see this, they will say enviously, "What a big star!"
In the next few days, Ji Yu participated in several signing events one after another and stole the limelight in Japan. Many media reported that Ji Yu had signed contracts with many advertising endorsements.

[Asian superstar Ji Yu signed contracts with multiple brands and made a crazy profit of more than 1 billion yen! ]

【Ji Yu becomes Cartier's spokesperson for Asia! 】

【Ji Yu becomes Shiseido's first Chinese spokesperson! 】

Various news continue to appear in Japanese media reports. These brand owners have strong capital, so they naturally have to promote their signed spokespersons well.

Ji Yu’s popularity in Japan has reached a new level!
Even people who don’t pay attention to the entertainment industry know that there is a Chinese star who is making a lot of money in Japan.

More than one billion yen, that's really an astronomical figure!

Ji Yu has never calculated how much his endorsement fees would be converted into Japanese yen. According to the current exchange rate, it should be more than 1.2 billion yen.

1.2 billion sounds quite impressive.

However, paying taxes can reduce the amount to less than 10 billion, and it is still unknown how much you will get in the end.

Ji Yu doesn't want to evade taxes. If it is exposed in the future, he will be scolded.

Ji Yu will not pay less than a penny of the money he owes.

When Ji Yu signed the endorsement contract and was at the peak of his popularity, the scenes of Pink Panther in Tokyo were also successfully completed.

Ji Yu has been busy these days and has no time to practice his photography skills.

It was a good idea at the time. I wanted to take Japanese-style photos of Zhang Yan after arriving in Tokyo.

Not to mention bundling technology, there is no time to learn it at all.

That night, after filming the last scene of Pink Panther in Tokyo, everyone sat together to celebrate.

The alcohol content of Japanese sake is not as high as that of white wine, so it is not stressful to drink and everyone enjoys drinking it.

The girls drank quite a bit, but Ji Yu wasn't drunk at all. He took out his camera to take pictures of everyone. Since so many people came to Tokyo together, they had to leave some souvenirs.

Chen, wearing a kimono, blushed as he looked at Ji Yu and shouted, "Take a few pictures for me. I promised to be your model."

As she spoke, she leaned sideways, revealing her long calves from under her kimono. She looked at Ji Yu with misty and charming eyes.

Everyone else followed suit and praised her for being so beautiful, but Zhang Yan was the only one who wasn't very happy. Before she could take the photo, Chen took it first!

Ji Yu took a camera and took several photos of Chen, then looked at Zhang Yan and said, "It's your turn, tomboy. Do you want to take photos here or outside?"

"Let's go outside and take pictures!" Zhang Yan stood up immediately and began to look forward to it.

No one else cared and they were still sitting around drinking and chatting. Only Chen stared at Ji Yu, regretting that he should have gone out to take the photo so that he could be alone with Ji Yu.

Ji Yu was walking on the cobblestone road in the yard with a camera in his hand. Zhang Yan, wearing a kimono, followed behind him with small steps, looking back from time to time. After making sure that there was no one around, she trotted to catch up with Ji Yu.

She took Ji Yu's arm from behind and carefully leaned her head against him.

"You've been so busy these days and you've become more and more popular. Fortunately, you avoided Chen that day." Zhang Yan said in a low voice, but in her heart she hoped that Ji Yu would follow this topic to praise her.

She hoped that he would say that he was not afraid of being affected and that he was willing to make her existence public, so that she would feel that her grievances and efforts were worth it.

Ji Yu put his arm around her and said, "Have you ever thought about this? I don't need you to hide in the first place."

"No, that won't work. You're in the rising stage of your career now, so don't be so willful." Zhang Yan said this to teach him a lesson, but she couldn't hide the smile on her face.

Happy!
Ji Yu didn't treat her as a shameful plaything.

And Ji Yu was not the kind of person who only talked on the surface. That day, he really reached out and pulled me back, not letting me hide.

Zhang Yan felt very happy, leaned on him and whispered, "Let's find a place where we won't be disturbed to take pictures. I want to take something different."

"Okay, how about going to the private bathhouse? Everyone is having a dinner party tonight, so there's no one there."

"it is good."

Soon they arrived at the private hot spring. After taking a few photos by the hot spring, Zhang Yan took the initiative to play in the water and pose in the hot spring.

The kimono was instantly wet, and the collar was slightly torn open by him. He looked at Ji Yu with seductive eyes.

Ji Yu was concentrating on taking pictures with the camera, as if he was not moved by the beauty.

As Zhang Yan's kimono was gradually removed, his breathing became rapid.

Zhang Yan smiled secretly in her heart, thinking that he could really hold it in. Just as she was about to take off her kimono, the sound of wooden clogs was heard outside again.

Chen appeared in a pink kimono, and Zhang Yan quickly pulled the kimono up, frightened to death.

She secretly blamed Chen for destroying her world of two again.

Ji Yu was also speechless. Why did Chen come over again? Didn’t he know he was taking pictures of Zhang Yan again?

Chen came over and saw Zhang Yan soaking in the hot spring in a kimono. He was a little surprised, but he was relieved when he saw Ji Yu was still on the shore.

But at this moment, Zhang Yan looked really beautiful with peach blossoms on her face.

Thinking of the photos she had just casually taken in the room, she said unhappily: "I want to take photos too, Ji Yu, you are biased, I want to take photos like this too!"

Ji Yu and Zhang Yan looked at each other and sighed at the same time.

Chen was a little drunk, and there was nothing they could do. They couldn't just chase her away, in case she ran back and started talking nonsense.

Chen had already entered the water holding up the hem of her kimono, turned around and looked at Ji Yu and said, "Take some pictures~"

Ji Yu chuckled and raised his camera to take a picture without any emotion.

While Ji Yu was taking pictures of the two beauties, the variety show he recorded on Fuji TV was broadcast.

Countless Japanese viewers have seen Ji Yu sitting at the piano and singing on TV.

Regardless of whether they knew Ji Yu before, they knew each other at this moment.

The song Lemon really suits the Japanese taste. I fell in love with it instantly after listening to it, and I also fell in love with Ji Yu.

A Chinese singer who speaks very good Japanese and writes very nice Japanese songs!

Being able to speak Japanese will make the audience subconsciously ignore his nationality and treat him as one of their own.

Who wouldn't love him when he's so handsome and talented!
Ji Yu's new single became an instant hit, and the Tokyo branch of Rolling Stone also began to promote it. It only took two hours for Lemon to reach No. 12 on the Oricon Singles Chart!

The single album will be officially on sale tomorrow!
