Chapter 468 Who doesn’t understand who yet?
"Oh, beautiful Miss Xiaoxiao." Philip's eyes began to become affectionate as he looked at Hu Xiaoxiao. "Of course I am very happy to cooperate with you, otherwise I would not have been waiting for Miss Xiaoxiao to be the heroine of "The Magic Contract". If Miss Xiaoxiao can help "The Magic Contract" attract more investment, I will of course be happy to cooperate with Miss Xiaoxiao in depth and make money together."
After dealing with Philip so many times, Hu Xiaoxiao just listened to his words. The reason he kept waiting for her as the heroine was because he couldn't find the right person. He spoke so affectionately, but his heart was full of business.
However, Hu Xiaoxiao was also a business person, thinking only about how to make money, borrowing a hen to lay eggs, and borrowing the hen of "Magic Contract" to lay eggs for himself. Since he wanted to borrow it, he must have something to make the owner willingly lend out the egg-laying hen.
"That's a deal." Hu Xiaoxiao said.
Philip looked at Hu Xiaoxiao affectionately with a charming smile: "I will prepare the red wine and wait for good news from Miss Xiaoxiao."
Just nice words, nothing practical, not even a promise.
Hu Xiaoxiao has dealt with many people who only say nice things. These cunning businessmen will not show their true colors until they see the rabbit.
Hu Xiaoxiao was not afraid that Philip would go back on his word, or that he would turn his back on her after she got the investment. She dared to speak up, so of course she had a plan in place.
After making the decision, Hu Xiaoxiao took action immediately.
It is easier to get things done with money. Dong Peiyu had already hired a team to serve Hu Xiaoxiao. After Hu Xiaoxiao gave the task, the team prepared all the information Hu Xiaoxiao needed as quickly as possible.
Hu Xiaoxiao picked up the phone and called George, the Asia head of the high-end clothing brand.
She served as the brand's promotional ambassador for several years and later became its spokesperson for Asia. She is an old acquaintance of George, and the brand invites her to attend its annual events in the Baogang area. In recent years, as the artists under Shengshi have become increasingly popular, the brand has also invited Shengshi artists to serve as promotional ambassadors.
George was in the United States at the time, attending the head office's annual meeting. When he received a call from Hu Xiaoxiao, he enthusiastically chatted with Hu Xiaoxiao about family matters.
Hu Xiaoxiao's ability to bring products to the market is unparalleled. Of all the spokespersons George has found for the Asian region, Hu Xiaoxiao's ability to bring products to the market is the strongest. Since working with Hu Xiaoxiao, he has never considered changing the spokesperson. He is even worried that Hu Xiaoxiao will be snatched away by a rival company, so he occasionally sends greetings during the New Year and gifts, maintaining a good relationship with her.
"Xiao, do you want to see Mr. Felix?" George asked in surprise.
Felix is the brand's CMO, responsible for the brand's marketing policy and project planning, and advertising is one of his jobs.
Hu Xiaoxiao said: "That's right, please ask Mr. George to help introduce me. I will invite you for tea when I return to Baogang."
"Xiao, may I ask why you are looking for Mr. Felix?"
“It’s for cooperation, of course.”
"Dear Xiao, shouldn't you talk to me about our cooperation? It's rare that you are dissatisfied with my work?" George said resentfully.
"How is that possible, George?" Hu Xiaoxiao said sincerely, "We've been friends for so many years, and we've become close friends. Our friendship is beyond doubt. This time I'm looking for Mr. Felix because of my personal matters, but I also want to help you, my friend."
"Help me?" George was puzzled. He hadn't had any troubles recently. As the Asian market matured, his performance had been rising year by year, and his results were outstanding. At this year's annual meeting, he had even received praise from the group's top management.
"George, you're not satisfied with the status quo, are you? You don't want to make any further progress? The George I know is an ambitious man."
George was a little confused by what Hu Xiaoxiao said, "You mean..."
"Expand the Asian market, develop more clients, and elevate your performance in Asia to a higher level."
Are you such a nice person? George has known Hu Xiaoxiao for several years. The two have been dealing with each other for so many years, who doesn't know each other? He grasped the key point, "You just said that you were looking for Mr. Felix for a private matter. Can I ask what it is?"
Hu Xiaoxiao had no intention of keeping this a secret from George; he needed his help in mediating the situation. "I'm filming Hamlet Company's 'The Contract,' and I'm not satisfied with the costumes they designed. However, time is too short to create costumes that meet my requirements, so I'd like to work with your company. 'The Contract,' a film primarily targeting the Asian market, and if your company's brand can be integrated into this film, it will help expand its influence and capture the market ahead of time. Hollywood studios have seen the potential of the Asian market, and I doubt your company will ignore it after seeing its performance soar year after year. If you don't quickly capture the market, you're handing it over to your competitors, admitting defeat."
Although Hu Xiaoxiao had just fooled George, if this deal could be done, it would indeed be beneficial to developing the Asian market and allow George's work to proceed more smoothly.
George had worked with Hu Xiaoxiao for so long and was convinced of his vision. With a quick thought, he figured out that if the deal went through, it would be a huge benefit for him. If it didn't, he wouldn't lose anything.
"Are you sure our brand of clothing is suitable for costumes in 'The Magic Contract'?"
"The era of movies is now, so casual clothes are no problem. If there is an important costume that needs to be matched, I will choose an inner layer to wear. However, this is a matter to be considered after the deal is concluded."
Upon hearing this, George readily agreed to Hu Xiaoxiao's request, "Mr. Felix mentioned you at this year's annual meeting and expressed his admiration for you."
Felix is responsible for all brand marketing efforts. The key regional spokespersons directly impact the brand's image, so he regularly inquires about and investigates the regional spokespersons' information and market response. Global spokespersons require Felix's approval before they're finalized.
Hu Xiaoxiao came prepared. His team had already collected a lot of information about Felix. After reading this information, Hu Xiaoxiao asked people to find a lot of reports on the Asian market and information about competing brands.
After learning about all these things, Hu Xiaoxiao went to the brand's head office and picked out this year's new models. He chose a set that was not the brand's main style, but a very unpopular style.
The main style is worn by many people, so no matter how colorful it is, it will not stand out.
The reason why unpopular things are unpopular is that they are often difficult to control.
Being able to make an underdog shine is the real skill.
If Hu Xiaoxiao wants to impress Felix, he must first demonstrate his high value.
