I'm just trying to ride the wave of popularity!

Chapter 233 They've gone mad! They've all gone mad!

Ten o'clock in the morning.

In the office of [XuanShi Entertainment].

Lin Guodong and his group did not leave.

Instead, he stayed in his office, watching Zhou Yang's CFO knock on the door and come in, his face filled with shock!

"Mr. Zhou!"

"Here we go again! [Olay Shampoo] 20 million... The note says 'Pre-authorization of Mr. Zhou Yang's image! Mr. Zhou, I've checked the accounts and the contract; we never signed this contract!"

When the CFO saw Lin Guodong, she was instinctively startled, but then Zhou Yang smiled and said, "President Lin is no outsider; he just signed a strategic agreement with me..."

"Oh! I found it, it's the 6500 million mentioned in the notes for [China F1 Racing International], right?"

"Yes……"

"I'll do the accounting right away!"

After hearing the confirmation, Ms. Chen, the financial director, nodded.

"Mr. Zhou, another payment has arrived, 1500 million! My God, this payment has absolutely no notes, I can't find out where it came from, and the recipient seems to be a private account. Mr. Zhou, this is already the seventh payment made today by a brand without a signed contract!"

The CFO, seeing the increasing sums of money deposited into the company account, was immediately overwhelmed: "I just checked the bank statements. Since President Zhou got off the plane, the company account has inexplicably seen an extra 3.2 million... These people have transferred money without even seeing the contracts. Aren't they afraid we'll run off with the money? They're acting like madmen..."

When Lin Guodong heard this, he was secretly alarmed, but then he felt a sense of relief.

Luckily, I had found Zhou Yang through connections beforehand; otherwise, I might not have been able to secure the endorsement contract with him for 6500 million yuan...

He subconsciously looked out the window.

He saw that the parking lot downstairs was even more crowded than before!
Not far away, dozens of brand representatives in suits were shoving each other with security guards!

Some people even held up a sign, shouting and waving it around!

"Mr. Zhou Yang, please take a look at us!"

"Three minutes! Just three minutes!"

"We have dreams, we also have dreams, and we hope to cooperate with you!"

"Mr. Zhou Yang!"

See the crazy scenes below.

Zhang Jingya, who was standing next to her, seemed a little dazed.

"crazy……"

she muttered.

..........................................

"Didn't get a number again? I had the business department stake out the entrance of [Xuan Shi Entertainment] at 2 AM! What is the company's business department even doing? They still haven't been able to contact President Zhou! Damn it!"

"I should have signed a three-year contract last year! Signing for a one-year contract is unacceptable; now I can't even secure a slot! Damn it!"

"Damn it, does President Zhou still think highly of us now?"

"..."

The headquarters office of [Bingbing Yangkele] is located on the East Third Ring Road of Yanjing.

Luo Hongming hung up the phone in frustration, his gaze somewhat gloomy.

In the office, the projector was playing a loop of a close-up shot from "The Lord of the Rings: The Two Rings" showing Zhou Yang tilting his head back and drinking a Coke.

This brief three-second clip, along with a collaboration last year, completely changed the fate of [Bingbing Yang Cola].

Last year, this was a small domestic beverage factory on the verge of bankruptcy.

Now, it has become a leading domestic beverage brand in China.

Especially after the global release of "The Lord of the Rings: The Two Rings" in late last month, the sales of [Bingbing Yangkele] exploded!
In just half a month, sales exceeded the entire month's performance in March!

At this moment, the influence of celebrities has been completely transformed into real money.

Luo Hongming stared at the projected image, feeling increasingly anxious and frustrated. In fact, he should have considered renewing his contract with President Zhou much earlier!

The current CEO Zhou is not the same CEO Zhou he used to be!

Just at this time……

"Mr. Wang!" The secretary burst through the door and rushed over. "Mr. Luo, I just received news that people from [Happy Cola] are standing guard at Mr. Zhou's company entrance with the company seal. Their vice president is making threats internally, saying they'll do whatever it takes to sign Mr. Zhou. And I heard that their internal offer for Mr. Zhou's signing fee is as high as 5000 million RMB. Moreover, it seems they'll pay upfront and then discuss the cooperation..."

"Also, the Japanese [Cola Zero] company is over there, and they're going crazy... using all sorts of connections, eager to cooperate with Zhou Yang, and offering even more astonishing prices..."

"..."

Luo Hongming heard one piece of news after another.

His anxiety grew increasingly severe!
He paced back and forth in the office, his fists clenching in frustration and trembling.

Their rise to fame with [Bingbing Yang Kele] has made countless competitors envious!
Now that the news of Mr. Zhou's cooperation with Paimon has come out, all the competitors have pounced on it like sharks smelling blood. Whether they are domestic brands or overseas brands, they all want to squeeze them out of the market!

"Call the finance department! Transfer 30 million first! No, transfer 50 million first! Write 'A Tribute to the Glory of Chinese Cinema' in the payment remarks. Damn it, if we don't transfer the money now, we won't even have a chance to lick our boots! Hurry up!"

"it is good!"

"Oh, and keep contacting Mr. Zhou for me. Once he answers the phone, tell me that I hope to renew my contract with him. He can name any terms he wants, as long as we can renew! Oh, and I can offer Mr. Zhou some shares!"

"Ok!"

"Fine, damn it, I'll go myself!"

"..."

..............................

noon.

[Xuan Shi Entertainment] Company entrance.

Security captain Zhang Shun stood blocking the gate, his shirt soaked with sweat.

More than twenty security guards behind him formed a human wall, but they were still pushed back by the surging crowd.

He grabbed a megaphone and shouted into the crowd, "Back up! Everyone back up!"

"President Zhou is not receiving guests today!"

"Mr. Zhou is busy right now, please don't disturb his creative process!"

The parking lot not far away was filled with cars parked haphazardly.

The well-dressed elites jostled each other like middle-aged women grabbing discounted vegetables at a market.

Someone was standing on the hood of a car, waving a contract and shouting at the [Xuan Shi Entertainment] building!
"Let me in! I'm the head of marketing for [O'Reilly], and we've come with sincerity! I won't leave until Mr. Zhou sees me! Mr. Zhou, I've transferred 30 million to you, have you received it? If you have, please call me back, Mr. Zhou. We are extremely sincere, Mr. Zhou!"

"Mr. Zhou, our finance department has transferred 35 million to you. Mr. Zhou, we know your revenue-sharing agreement with [Bingbing Yang Cola] has expired. Mr. Zhou, I think you need to consider partnering with a stronger company. Mr. Zhou, we are from [Happy Cola] Company. Our factory is more hygienic and has better conditions than [Bingbing Yang Cola]'s, and we have more financial backing. We are preparing for an IPO next year. Mr. Zhou, whatever conditions [Bingbing Yang Cola] offered you, we will double them!"

"Mr. Zhou! Look here! Seventy million! We'll offer seventy million in endorsement fees! It's all already been transferred to you, Mr. Zhou!"

"..."

The returns skyrocketed by nearly several hundred times!

Sales were nearly several dozen times higher!
The rapid rise of humble brands...

From 03 to 04!
One year!
As Zhou Yang rose to prominence step by step, the astonishing business myth he created overturned the perceptions of countless people and drove countless brand owners crazy!
With Zhou Yang's return this time...

These people have completely gone mad!

……

Financial Director Chen looked at the inexplicable transfers of income.

At this moment, I have no idea what to do with the general ledger!

In just half a day, dozens more huge remittances poured into the account, with the remarks column filled with words like "dream," "tribute," and "earnest money," but damn it, none of them specified which brand it was from.

Seeing this scene...

She was having a bit of a headache!
"Another ten million has arrived... Which brand made this call? Return it, return it to the original payment method! President Zhou's intention is to return all payments except those with signed contracts!" She stared at the numbers flashing on the computer screen, feeling like she was going crazy!
This veteran accountant, who had worked in finance for twenty years, couldn't tell whether this was reality or an absurd dream.

Not far away, a list recently compiled by the marketing department was shocking: Suzuki Motors 5000 million, Daily Learning Machine 2000 million in advance payment, Olay Shampoo 3000 million in brand licensing... and various beverage brands, each averaging over 2000 million in advance payments...

"These lunatics..."

........................

【Tianyu】

Xu Haibo and Zhou Yang returned to China on the same day.

However, unlike Zhou Yang, who was the focus of much attention, even though Xu Haibo acquired the copyright to "Disaster," it still failed to make any splash in the market after its release.

in the afternoon.

He had just returned to the company and hadn't had much time to rest when he received a series of phone calls.

Next!

His face changed drastically!
"What did you say!"

"All the commercial endorsements that our company had previously agreed to have changed their minds!"

"Damn it!"

"Isn't 'Happy Cola' Chen Liang's? How come it's gone now...?"

"What? The advertising budget allocated to Zhou Yang is already close to 4 million?"

"Quickly, call these brands and keep them on their toes. Don't let Zhou Yang snatch them away. Damn it, that bastard Zhou Yang is going to dig us out!"

"Oh shit!"

"Damn it, does Zhou Yang's collaboration with a Hollywood movie guarantee a hit? There are tons of flops out there, this is just a gimmick, damn it!"

"..."

The messages kept sending chills down his spine!

Nobody wanted Zhou Yang to sit down for dinner!

But Zhou Yang!
Now they've not only started eating at the table, but they've also begun frantically snatching food from their bowls, and there's no stopping them!

Just at this time!
The assistant rushed in.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Haibo saw a video sent from the front lines.

While Xu Haibo was furious that Zhou Yang had stolen their food...

Zhou Yang in the video, however...

"Sorry, everyone, please stop sending us money!"

"We need to prepare a tax report to clarify the source of this money..."

"Sorry everyone, the payments have been refunded. I will have the finance department refund all payments from any unidentified accounts other than those related to our previous companies!"

"I'm sorry, everyone..."

"Also, since you've all been so enthusiastic, I won't let you come all this way for nothing. So, after I return the money you transferred to you, please compile a list of your brands, and I'll personally review it tonight..."

"Oh, right!"

"Because I have to be responsible for the brands we work with... We won't sign contracts with competing brands that are similar to our previous partners during the contract period..."

"Excuse me, if it's a similar brand, please leave..."

"By the way, I noticed some brands seem to have signed letters of intent with Tianyu Media. Sorry, we won't accept brands that have signed with Tianyu..."

"..."

Xu Haibo saw Zhou Yang's arrogant and idiotic demeanor in the video!

He was so angry that he clutched his heart and smashed his laptop in a fit of rage!

"Zhou Yang, you son of a bitch! You're just pretending to be high and mighty!"
