Chapter 152 Your Signed Artist is Caught in an Emotional Whirlpool
…
This month, thanks to Lu Feng's wonderful performance in the MV for "Lie" and the popularity of his previous MV for "Guest", Zhao Ruoyao helped Lu Feng negotiate his first commercial endorsement.
A diamond ring brand.
The endorsement fee is good, 2 million for two years.
Her agent contract gives her a 10% commission, so $200,000 belongs to her.
Although the commission rate is not high, since the company belongs to Lu Feng, she is just an employee under Lu Feng. The cooperation was able to be negotiated thanks to Lu Feng's own connections.
——The owner of this diamond ring jewelry company also lives on Wukang Road and is Lu Feng’s neighbor.
Therefore, Zhao Ruoyao also knew that he had contributed some effort, but not much...being able to get a 10% commission was already very good.
Even her former boss, Zeng Jia, couldn't negotiate a collaboration of this level.
For artists, the level of endorsement is also very important.
Lu Feng’s persona as a talented scholar, coupled with all the marketing he did as a nobleman right after his debut, and the blessing from his affectionate ex-boyfriend...it fits the tone of the diamond ring very well.
That's why she could take it down easily.
Moreover, the level of the first endorsement is related to the level of future endorsements. Judging from Lu Feng’s current situation, his future endorsements will most likely be luxury goods of the same level.
The money-making potential is extraordinary.
Therefore, it is more comfortable to follow Lu Feng and get a 10% agent commission than to follow Yang Mi and other unknown people and get a 30% commission.
She also wanted to follow Lu Feng and make a fortune by short selling.
Now, Lu Feng is going to deduct her bonus... Deducting the bonus is a small matter, but what makes her sad is that she can't get rich with Lu Feng.
…
In the room.
"Old woman Liu Shishi, you are the worst. Lu Feng is obviously not interested in you. You must have tried every possible means to seduce Lu Feng!"
"You little vixen Nazha, you're even worse. I've clearly warned you that Lu Feng is mine and told you not to have any ideas about him. But you still couldn't help it! Just wait and see, I'll definitely kill you in the future!"
"And that big idiot Li Xiaoqin... I've reminded you so many times, but you just don't take it seriously! You deserve to be cuckolded!"
There is a huge pillow on Reba's bed. Whenever she is angry, she treats the pillow as Lu Feng and punches and kicks it.
After venting her anger, she would think that she had taught Guo Lu Feng a lesson and forget about it tomorrow.
"Um?"
After venting today, Reba suddenly felt a familiar mechanical voice coming from her mind.
——【System prompt: Your contracted artist is deeply trapped in an emotional whirlpool, feeling extremely upset, and has decided to take a spontaneous trip.】
"What's the meaning?"
"Lu Feng is going to run away from home?"
"No way... just because I told him to stop being so fickle, he's going to run away from home?"
…
In the next few days, Reba was always worried that Lu Feng would suddenly disappear one morning and go on a spontaneous trip.
So, she would call Li Jiahang early every morning to ask him whether Lu Feng had come to the set to work that day.
"Don't worry, my elder brother will come to work on time at 8 o'clock every day."
Li Jiahang was afraid that Reba would not believe him, so he posted a photo of Lu Feng working hard on the set.
"Well done, keep up the good work."
Seeing that Lu Feng didn't show anything unusual, Reba let out a breath and turned to go to the school to find Li Xiaoqin.
"Reba, why did you suddenly call me out?"
Li Xiaoqin has been very busy recently. There are only 30 days left before the college entrance examination, and she is busy with the final sprint.
"Sister-in-law Xiaoqin, do you want to be a big star?"
"You're talking nonsense, aren't you? Of course I want to be a big star, but it's not up to me to decide. Lu Feng told me a long time ago that with my acting skills, I can't even say the lines well, and he wants me to act in dramas for two years first."
Seeing Lu Feng's brilliant career, sometimes as a singer, sometimes filming TV dramas, and sometimes attending various award ceremonies, Li Xiaoqin admired him but was also envious.
She also imagined that one day she would become a glamorous star like Lu Feng, living under the spotlight and surrounded by compliments from countless people.
However, being a big star is not that easy.
Being good-looking is just the entry requirement.
The key is to have talent.
She is not like Lu Feng, who can play the piano, guitar, write her own songs, and is also good at writing novels.
A real talent.
She doesn't know anything, and if she wants to go the original route, she basically won't get far. She can only follow Lu Feng and be a duet singer of love songs.
As for acting?
Lu Feng said that her lines were stiff, like a robot, which distracted the audience, so he asked her to practice her lines more when she had free time.
In addition, her empathy ability is very poor and she needs to read more literary works, especially the short stories of Maupassant.
Lu Feng suggested that she read more.
Because Maupassant's works often capture the reality of life from ordinary trivialities, especially in character portrayal, which is simply amazing.
If you want to be a good actor, it is almost necessary to read more excellent literary works and exercise your empathy.
As for her appearance... Lu Feng said she was super beautiful.
whee.
That day, Lu Feng talked to her a lot, analyzed her many shortcomings, and hinted to her very subtly that with her current acting skills and lines, it would be difficult for her to become a good actor.
Practice more if you are good at cooking.
However, Li Xiaoqin had forgotten everything.
I just remember Lu Feng saying that she was so beautiful.
She still takes it out from time to time to savor it.
Lu Feng seldom said those touching sweet words to her, but every time he spoke from the heart, it made her heart beat fast and she felt particularly sweet.
"Master Liu is almost climbing over your head, and you are still so calm? You really make me so angry!"
Seeing that Li Xiaoqin was patient enough to wait two years before acting, Reba was worried for her: "Did you know that Ling Yiyao's novel is going to be adapted into a movie?"
"I know."
Li Xiaoqin nodded. Lu Feng had told him about this matter.
In the second half of this year, Lu Feng will finish filming "Chinese Paladin III", and it will be the end of the year soon, so he definitely won't have time to start filming.
This youth romance film will most likely be filmed in the first half of 2009, and will be aired around Valentine's Day 2010.
In addition, Lu Feng also told her that she could practice in school for two years with peace of mind.
Because Lu Feng had already helped her contact Sun Li's "The Legend of Zhen Huan" as her debut work.
This major historical production is expected to start filming around September 2010.
That’s still about two years away.
These two years have been Li Xiaoqin's time for leveling up.
As an actress, once Li Xiaoqin makes her debut, she will face a bleak acting career... At that time, whether she will be criticized or receive praise from everyone depends on her fate.
During the past two years, Li Xiaoqin needed to practice Kunqu Opera while working on her acting skills, which was actually quite tiring.
As for Kunqu Opera, Li Xiaoqin also doesn't want to give up.
She is also planning to join the Shanghai Kunqu Opera Troupe as a mainstay after graduation.
Seeing Li Xiaoqin's indifferent expression, Reba stamped her feet, angrily saying, "Then do you know that the role of Ling Yiyao will most likely be played by Liu Shishi?"
"Master Liu?"
Li Xiaoqin's expression finally changed, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in her eyes: "This bad woman who seduced Lu Feng, she still dares to appear in front of me?"
