Murong Qiao had never thought that there would be resources that came knocking on her door.
She had heard a little about the magazine Song Simo had mentioned. It was a high-end magazine and usually had very high standards. Murong Qiao didn’t expect them to take the initiative to look for her.
“Our magazine’s filming time is quite flexible. If you’re interested in working together, we can discuss it.” Song Simo was clearly the easy-going type.
Or rather, in front of Murong Qiao, her attitude was especially soft.
It seemed to be a little different from the high standards that everyone in the industry said. Murong Qiao’s heart changed a little. She felt that the situation in front of her seemed to be up to her.
“How about this—” Murong Qiao drawled.
She pretended to be deep in thought and calculated the time and requests in
her heart.
In the end, Song Simo thought that this was a little difficult and the other party was still considering it, so she added.
“I remember that the drama Three Thousand Realms that CG started filming is about to be reviewed and broadcasted, right?”
She mentioned the drama that Murong Qiao was currently filming. “If we work together, we can also help promote it.”
Such a thing was naturally not part of the original collaboration.
Helping with publicity for free was simply out of Song Simo’s selfishness.
Ever since she saw Murong Qiao on the variety show a few days ago, Song Simo had fallen in love with her and wanted to become her fanatical fan.
When she found out that Murong Qiao was coming to the news conference this time, she was extremely excited when she came and looked around to see if she would meet her.
“It’S naturally not a big problem to collaborate with your magazine,” Murong
Qiao agreed immediately.
Since the other party had already expressed such sincerity, it would be unreasonable for her to delay and hesitate.
She gave her a heads-up first. “But let’s arrange a time to discuss the detailed filming content and time. We can arrange another day to talk.”
“Of course!” Song Simo hurriedly nodded.
According to the popularity of The One, they wouldn’t lose out no matter what. Instead, they could take this opportunity to walk towards a higher goal. At the same time, they could also raise the value of the artistes. They could also consider developing in the high-end direction and entering the international market in the future.
Three Thousand Realms was indeed about to enter the marketing stage recently. At that time, it would be good to save a sum of publicity fees.
Murong Qiao’s mind was racing. She had the self-awareness of a company boss.
Speaking of Three Thousand Realms, the director, Liu Cheng, did send her a document after she returned, but Murong Qiao had yet to read it.
Murong Qiao and Song Simo happily reached a consensus regarding the magazine shoot. Murong Qiao decided to leave the rest to Jiang Chi and be a slacking boss.
While Song Simo and Murong Qiao were talking, the atmosphere of the news conference was about the same. They began to prepare to introduce the new products developed by the brand this season.
After all, they were future partners. Murong Qiao sat below the stage and listened seriously.
-The research and development team has made corresponding adjustments to the feedback. Our new products this time are very focused on the stimulation of the skin. Other than today’s news conference, this set will be released to everyone in a week. At that time, we have to ask everyone to support us…” The news conference also opened a corresponding live-stream. After the photographer adjusted the equipment on the fixed rack, he recorded the situation.
In the end, as soon as the live-stream started, many netizens rushed in. The speed was much faster than the officials had expected.
“I’m here because of someone’s reputation. Where’s the guy who takes care of five girls a month? Let me take a look.”
“I just saw the news conference. Previously, there were rumors that the brand was going to cooperate with Zhengguang. Now, it’s simply self-defeating.” “Could the Vice President have fled and been captured by his wife?
“More than that, I saw a passerby take a photo and mention that the wife
brought up a divorce.”
After being stirred up by Ke Run’s matter, the large group of people who came in deviated from the main point.
However, it was gratifying that the popularity had increased a lot. Seeing that the netizens didn’t cause trouble, the brand happily tacitly agreed to this atmosphere in the live-stream and promoted their new products at the news conference.
Kevin had long left the stage after he finished speaking. He turned around and found Murong Qiao to discuss the cooperation.
“If the effect of this season’s endorsement is not bad, we can directly sign the following year’s contract…” Kevin roughly picked out the main points. The main point was the collaboration for the next year. Therefore, if the prerequisite for the quarterly endorsement was done well, it would be a huge profit for CG.
“We’re asking for two artistes, one male and one female. We’re more inclined towards An Nuo for the female artiste. As for the male artiste, you can choose.” An Nuo’s popularity was recognized by the public. She has received a lot of attention since her debut. Now, she could be considered one of the most outstanding artistes in CG.
It was within Murong Qiao’s expectations that Kevin would choose her.
“I don’t need to say much about the requirements for their reputation. In addition, the product image requires a male artiste to endorse our products. It shouldn’t be a problem if he’s not the masculine type.” Kevin finished.
Their brand focused on skincare and cosmetics. It was not really effective to use a masculine man to endorse their products.
Several candidates flashed across Murong Qiao’s mind, such as Shi Yang, Xu Xiuzhu, and Qu Xiu.
However, Kevin’s words indirectly reminded Murong Qiao that ever since the plagiarism incident last time, a batch of artistes had left. Before the company could replenish their strength, she had gone to participate in a show.
When she was free, she still had to get Jiang Chi to recruit more talents. Perhaps in the future, the resources would pile up even more than the number of artistes. She was not a black-hearted boss who would squeeze her employees dry.
Most of the time, Kevin explained during the conversation. Then, Murong Qiao interrupted from time to time. The two sides chatted happily the entire time. After the conversation ended, Murong Qiao left the news conference and was about to take out her cell phone to call a taxi when she saw An Nuo standing at the entrance of the news conference waving at her.
“Qiao! This way!” An Nuo was wearing a mask and sunglasses. “After my audition, I heard from Jiang Chi that you were coming to the news conference. I asked my assistant to pick you up on the way home.”
The news conference was ending, so there were no reporters outside. An Nuo was bold and stood by the car, not afraid of being exposed.
Murong Qiao lifted her skirt and took two quick steps. “We were talking about you just now.”
“Me? Shouldn’t we be talking about that scumbag Vice President who betrayed his wife?” An Nuo added.
Murong Qiao tapped her forehead in amusement. “You’re undoubtedly number one in watching gossip.”
The two of them entered An Nuo’s campervan one after another. The assistant considerately closed the door and sat in the driver’s seat in front to slowly start the car.
“I bumped into Director Liu Cheng at the audition today.
An Nuo mentioned what had happened today. “I heard from him that the edited version of Three Thousand Realms has already been sent for review. It shouldn’t be long before we can be placed on the prime time slot of the television station.”
“I’m preparing to announce it recently. He probably still wants to pull me along.” Murong Qiao nodded and admitted.
“Wouldn’t it be a waste if we didn’t take advantage of Boss’s popularity? If not for the fact that you’ve been busy with work recently, we actually wanted you to make a cameo appearance in the drama.”
An Nuo felt a little regretful, but she quickly changed the topic.
“I heard from Jiang Chi that there have been several programs imitating Spring Breath Peachfield that have sent you invitations recently. My manager has also received a lot. It’s obvious that they want to eat a piece of the cake.
They probably wanted to follow the strategy of bringing on Xian Yu and Murong Qiao, so they also invited An Nuo, who was very close to Murong Qiao..
