Huayu's rise from top star to best actor

Chapter 610: Bragging is tax-free, but it can improve your status

Chapter 610: Bragging is tax-free, but it can improve your status
Chatted with Zhang Linghe.

Xu Yien remembered what he had promised Meng Ziyi.

Take care of it now.

Tell her in the evening.

This is the speed of Yien, far ahead.

After exiting Weibo, Xu Yien opened the address book.

Zhang Linghe was puzzled: "You want to make a phone call?"

"Well, Meng Meng told me yesterday that she wanted me to help her get a luxury item. I'm going to talk to her about it now."

"Okay, that's great. Lulu and I are co-endorsing brands now. For example, I promote Haagen-Dazs for her."

"Well, let's call it couple business, which is fine. You two seem to be in perfect harmony."

"Hey, that's how love works. Only by helping each other can it last. What luxury items are you planning to buy for Sister Meng?"

"As agreed, BV stands for Bottega Veneta."

"How do you give a title like that?"

"It's easy. Just get a brand friend title first, and then mention it when you become famous."

"That's good too."

"I promised her, so I'll do my best." Xu Yien chuckled, "It's not a problem."

After finding the number of Bottega Veneta's public relations staff in China, Xu Yien clicked and dialed.

The PR we have always talked about is actually a public relations personnel, or a public relations director.

The public relations director was quite surprised when he received Xu Yien's call.

We are the ones who always take the initiative to contact Xu Yien's team. It is quite rare for Xu Yien to contact us on his own initiative.

After a few polite words, Xu Yien put forward his request.

The Bottega Veneta family agreed very readily.

He immediately gave Xu Yien this face.

First, she will be given the title of brand friend, and the cooperation period is one year. If Meng Ziyi's popularity increases in the future, she will be promoted to brand ambassador.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Yien was in a very happy mood.

The fact that others are willing to give this face shows that Xu Yien himself is valuable and has sufficient status.

Zhang Linghe asked, "Did you get it?"

"Took it."

"So awesome! He got it just by saying it."

“This is very simple.”

"It's so easy? Don't be so hypocritical, brother. It's not that easy to get luxury goods."

"Well, it's easy for me. Didn't I just recommend Jaeger-LeCoultre to you? If I can help you, it's not a difficult task. It's difficult if I can't help you."

"Haha, it's definitely not difficult to help. After all, Brother En, you are so popular now."

Cheng Xiao suddenly appeared from behind, with a somewhat complaining tone: "You get all the business for Meng Ziyi, why don't you help me~"

Xu Yien and Zhang Linghe were both a little confused.

Xu Yien asked: "Why did you suddenly appear?"

"Yeah, you came out from some corner." Zhang Linghe agreed.

Cheng Xiao scolded, "I just came back from the bathroom and happened to hear him getting resources for Meng Ziyi. Woohoo, why didn't he get them for me?"

Xu Yien said as a matter of course: "Didn't I recommend the drama to you? Besides, you have already been in contact with Fendi, so wouldn't it be redundant for me to help you?"

"Fendi still doesn't know when to give the title, and, and..."

Realizing that he was not in the right, Cheng Xiao became incoherent.

In short, I'm a little jealous.

Xu Yien took her hand and whispered, "Alright, you and Fendi have been working together for so long, it's impossible for you to get it for free. In the end, you will have a title and a contract."

Cheng Xiao still has some self-awareness and can't be too pushy.

I have already helped to get the drama, so it would be really inappropriate to ask for the business part.

You can't treat Xu Yien as an ATM machine.

"Good."

"Yeah~ You can do it. It's impressive that you can get it on your own."

Xu Yien coaxed Cheng Xiao with his mouth, but in his heart he was thinking about fulfilling his promise to Meng Ziyi.

I guess I will be "rewarded" again tonight.

Although titles like Brand Friend and Brand Friend don’t come with any money, at most you can get clothes to wear.

But there's no need to rush.

Wait until "Yu Gu Yao" is broadcast later.

Meng Meng can be safely upgraded to a brand ambassador.

You will then receive a formal contract and service fee.

It should be no problem to get two to three million in endorsement fees a year.

After all, there is still the popularity of "Fifty Kilometers Peach Blossom Village" and other variety shows.

In the contract, service fee is the endorsement fee, and they mean the same thing.

Recently, Chris Wu has been sued by brands one after another.

The true level of commercial endorsement fees has been exposed.

It's a very thorough investigation.

Vatti’s two-year contract is worth 1750 million.

Ziyuan’s two-year contract is worth 1450 million.

Hansu’s two-year contract is worth 1330 million.

Mercury Home Textiles’ one-year contract is worth just over 700 million.

Bragging is tax-free, but it can enhance your status.

This is Chris's way of bragging.

Basically, Chris bought the press release to exaggerate the two-year endorsement fee into a one-year endorsement fee, not to mention that if the brand and the agency do not release financial reports, the endorsement fee must sign a confidentiality agreement.

Chris is cunning.

Because of the confidentiality agreement, endorsement fees cannot be disclosed unless announced in the financial report.

This is precisely why boastful people like this have an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

Not only fooling people outside the circle, but also fooling people inside the circle...

Zhu Yilong was even pua at that time because the title of Louis Vuitton was several levels lower than Chris.

After looking at the brand's financial report, Zhu Yilong Lenovo's short-term agency revenue for half a year was 5 million.

Compared with Chris and Zhu Yilong, their commercial value is inferior to that of the clowns.

Not to mention Zhu Yilong, Xu Yien had been pua by him before.

Who knew Chris was so weak that he even had to brag about his endorsement fees.

You should know that when Xu Yien's "Guardian" first became popular, his endorsement fee was 10 million. In comparison, the commercial value of the endorsement fee of 160 million in the original time and space is not low.

At least he is at the same level as Chris and Yang.

At most, he can't beat the top few.

When he met the top-notch Bo Xiaolong Lunn, he was defeated in seconds without leaving anything behind.

This is why Xu Yien never considered Chris as a rival before.

Because the commercial value is not on the same level.

Strictly speaking, the new top-tier influencers that emerged after 18 did not take the old version of the "Four Top-tier Influencers" seriously.

Even Chris, who has the highest commercial value among the "Four Top Stars", pales in comparison to the new top stars.

Xu Yien's annual endorsement fee catches up to his two-year endorsement fee.

It would be a loss of face to be his opponent.

That night.

Back to the hotel after work.

Meng Ziyi lay in the room for the whole day.

When you’re hungry, order takeout.

Make good use of food delivery apps, and you’ll never starve these days.

Seeing Xu Yien coming back, she sat up from the bed and said, "Husband~"

"Why didn't you come to the crew to find me? Why did you stay in the hotel for the whole day?"

"Oh." Meng Ziyi sneered and said, "How dare I? Cheng Xiao is giving me the cold shoulder again."

"You were the one who gave them the cold shoulder yesterday, so why are you turning against me? You can't talk nonsense."

"Why are you leaning outward?"

"That's not true. I'm on the side of justice, not relatives. You treated them coldly yesterday, so it's inappropriate to say that now."

"Go away! I have to be nice to you for stealing my boyfriend."

Xu Yien quietly changed the subject: "Have you eaten?"

Meng Ziyi said: "I've eaten, and I've ordered takeout."

She walked over and gave Xu Yien a hug.

"Not bad." Xu Yien hugged her and said with a smile, "I helped you get it off. It's a brand friend of Bottega Veneta."

"Wow, so fast! I thought you were going to negotiate with the brand for a while."

Xu Yien continued, "Since it's you, I don't mind the trouble of negotiating. Even though there's no money to be made, there's a title. After Yu Gu Yao airs next year, you should be able to upgrade."

Meng Ziyi was puzzled: "When will it be announced?"

"I'm talking about announcing it on your birthday. Think of it as a birthday present. The brand will coordinate with your team on the next steps, and we'll shoot a beautiful official announcement video and photos."

Some brands are just like close friends with no treatment, they are just wholesale.

But we can't generalize across brands.

Like Tashiki’s current brand friends Zando, Zhu Zhengting, Zhou Ye and Qiu Tian, they were all treated well for the brand blockbusters and commercials they shot.

Next year, Zhou will be upgraded from close friend to ambassador, and his treatment will be even better.

BV signed Meng Ziyi this time on behalf of Xu Yien, so the treatment will not be bad.

"Thank you~"

"No need to thank me. What's our relationship? Let's just talk about this."

"Hehehehe, hubby loves you."

"Why are you laughing so obscenely?"

"How can you say that about your girlfriend?"

"Just kidding, I haven't eaten yet, come with me to have another meal."

"Huh? Why haven't you eaten yet?"

"I was just worried that you hadn't eaten, so I came back to ask you."

"Excuse me, what do you want to eat?"

As soon as he finished asking, Meng Ziyi said proudly: "It's my treat today, eat as much as you want!"

"Whatever, it's up to you."

"I'm fine too."

Xu Yien stopped him, saying, "If I can be casual, then you can't be casual. Only one person on either side can be casual. If I can be casual today, you can only be casual tomorrow."

"Oh, I remember you like barbecue, let's have barbecue."

"Hmm~ I don't want to eat barbecue, it's a bit greasy."

"Hot Pot?"

"I don't want to eat hot pot either."

"Barbecue?"

“What’s the difference between barbecue and grilling?”

"Oh, just say it straight."

"Look, this is how we feel when you girls say whatever you want. Just kidding, let's have some barbecue."

"So bad~"

With a teasing remark, Meng Ziyi pretended to punch Xu Yien's chest with his little fist.

"Okay, let's go and have dinner."

"It's disgusting to repeat the words."
