When Yan Jie gritted his teeth and uttered the words "Zhu Dali's new compound fertilizer," netizens burst into laughter.
[That Xi-mei is such a terrible teammate! She sold everyone off for just 30,000 yuan!]
[She's still endorsing Zhu Dali's compound fertilizer!! If this product were even slightly decent, the King of Looks wouldn't be so angry he'd turn green.]
The thought of seeing their faces on fertilizer bags makes me giggle uncontrollably.
[Zhu Dali's compound fertilizer is now famous. The director is probably holding a bag of fertilizer right now, waiting to reap this windfall.]
If they actually accept this endorsement, they can forget about erasing this dark history. Every time it's dug up, netizens will laugh about it for three days and three nights.
The group decided to vote by raising their hands on whether or not to accept the endorsement for the compound fertilizer.
Xie Wanyi interrupted the conversation abruptly, saying:
"The agency has a rule that artists cannot accept advertisements outside of their agency. I am not qualified to vote on this matter. I hereby apply to withdraw. You may continue."
Shibabe then stepped forward and stated:
“My situation is similar to that of Xie Yingdi. The company has clearly stipulated my various commercial activities outside. I am sorry that I cannot participate in your activities. I abstain.”
Finally, the five chaebols were left standing face to face.
Yan Jie, presiding over the matter, said, "Now let's vote. Those who disagree with filming the compound fertilizer advertisement, please raise your hands."
Apart from Jiang Hexi, the other four guests unanimously raised their hands in opposition to the proposal.
The situation is settled.
Yan Jie insisted on going through the motions and continued asking questions, as if he would feel much better if she abstained and didn't raise her hand:
"Those who agree to film the compound fertilizer advertisement, please raise your hands."
Jiang Hexi followed the village chief's example and squatted on the steps at the door. Upon hearing this, she raised her right hand high.
For a moment, everyone, including the program crew, fell silent.
The village chief immediately flew into a rage. He jumped up from the ground and began to curse at the people opposite him:
"What's shameful about filming a fertilizer commercial? Are you looking down on that 30,000 yuan, or do you think you're so important that you can't bring yourself to do it?"
"Many farmers go out to work and work themselves to the bone for a year, but they still can't save 30,000 yuan."
"The factory didn't ask you to do anything. It's just about wearing work clothes and taking a group photo in the workshop. What's so difficult about that? You can easily make money. Isn't that faster than the money you earn from road construction?"
"Do you really think they'd print your pictures on fertilizer bags and distribute them everywhere? The contract clearly states that those few billboards at the highway exits are so cheap that no one would even glance at them when a car drives by. What are you so hesitant about?"
"With all the money you have right now, you won't have a single penny left after buying nitrogen fertilizer. Beehives are free, fish fry are free, chickens are free! You really don't think about the future at all!"
The village chief, hands on his hips, unleashed a torrent of abuse on them, feeling much better afterward.
Jiang Hexi tried her best to pull on his sleeve, but she couldn't stop him from throwing a tantrum.
She had promised herself that no matter how others mocked her, she would finish cultivating that piece of land.
She's just endorsing compound fertilizer; she doesn't feel ashamed at all.
She didn't steal or rob, she didn't violate any moral principles, and she didn't break any social norms. She got the endorsement through her small amount of fame, so why can't she make money?
"Village chief, an hour has passed, we need to go back and report to the workshop director."
The village chief suddenly came to his senses. "Weren't we supposed to take a group work photo? Can you manage by yourself?"
Jiang Hexi had been squatting for too long, and her legs were numb when she stood up. The village chief quickly helped her up.
"This is easy. I can win over the workshop director by being a little sweet-talker and saying a few nice words. Anyway, I can't lose a penny. At worst, I'll lower my standards and take two print posters for the factory at once."
"Xi-mei, you are the most promising one. I can't count on anyone else as much as I can count on you."
The village chief, feeling sorry for her, helped her walk forward, muttering a few words to herself:
"Don't try to squat by the door like me next time. My back is too old to stand up straight. Why are you trying to do that at such a young age?"
Jiang Hexi was dumbfounded; she thought that squatting like this would make her more comfortable.
[Sobbing, my heart aches for my little Xi-mei, hugs! つ???_?????つ]
At this moment, Xi Mei has become a goddess in my heart.
[How did she, a proud and arrogant heiress from a top-tier luxury family, manage to convince herself to film this kind of advertisement?]
[The comment above makes it sound like Xi Mei filmed some kind of R-rated advertisement. It's just a print ad for Zhu Dali's new compound fertilizer, okay, I admit it's incredibly tacky.]
Yan Jie watched Jiang Hexi's departing figure, feeling an indescribable sense of irritation.
Shen Yingyu felt very guilty. "What were you thinking? Did you really plan to let Ximei film this fertilizer commercial by herself?"
No one standing there responded.
Chu Yang wore a bitter expression, still engaged in a fierce internal struggle:
"Brothers and sisters, to be honest, I can't get over that hurdle in my heart."
"I've thought about doing commercials in the future. Ideally, I'd like to do high-end luxury products like perfumes and suits, but I'd also be okay with snacks, drinks, and mineral water. I could even accept men's underwear."
Yu Xiangwan glanced at the kid's skinny, muscular physique, wondering where he got the courage to say something as audacious as taking on a men's underwear shoot. Did he really not care about the lives of the television audience?
Chu Yang was still immersed in his own world of sorrow, and he said with great inner turmoil:
"But fertilizer advertisements... I... just can't accept them."
"Stop complaining about Zhu Dali compound fertilizer here."
Yu Xiangwan straightened up from the wall and said, "No need for you big shots, I'll accompany Xi-mei to shoot this advertisement."
After seeing Yu Xiangwan leave, Chai Fei glanced at the men with disdain and then followed them away.
Xie Wanyi cleared his throat twice. Although he wasn't directly involved and shouldn't say much, since Yu Xiangwan had already stepped forward to accept the advertisement, he felt he should presume to say something.
"In this matter, you two certainly didn't act with the same magnanimity as the two women."
"We'll take pictures, who said we won't?"
Yan Jie retorted with a single sentence, "Otherwise, what can you do? Openly and honestly live off a woman?"
Seeing how harsh his words were, Shen Yingyu, despite feeling disgusted by the fertilizer advertisement, followed him and strode towards the workshop.
In the end, only Chu Yang was left standing there awkwardly.
"Actor Xie, please don't look at me like that. I may say I'm unhappy, but I still feel sorry for the two older sisters."
Xie Wanyi urged him to walk towards the workshop, "Then what are you doing standing here? Hurry up and follow me to get your makeup done. Hurry up and finish shooting the advertisement. We still have to go to the town market later."
