China Entertainment’s rescue plan is hard to come by
Chapter 901: A Wedding
Chapter 901 Two Weddings
Sun Yi and Liu Yifei were smug for two days, but in the end, they still couldn't escape each other.
Although the topic of their wedding date was temporarily suppressed thanks to Director Chen's helpful assistance, the news of their upcoming wedding still spread quickly among the upper echelons of the entertainment industry as they sent out invitations. Despite their repeated requests to keep it a secret, the news of their upcoming wedding still spread like wildfire as they sent out invitations.
We still missed one step in the calculation.
Sun Yi looked at the thick stack of sponsorship proposals on the table with frustration and sighed.
While I was thinking about how to keep a low profile, I forgot that once the invitations were sent out, it was impossible to keep a low profile at all.
"And that's not all. Zhang Xin has answered several phone calls for me these past two days."
Liu Yifei also pursed her lips, pushing the gold-embossed covers of the letters of intent with her fingertips, as if the stack in front of her was a hot potato.
With the news of the couple's wedding now confirmed, the first thing they received wasn't a flood of well wishes, but rather a barrage of messages from top brands.
Sun Yi's work phone calls with Liu Yifei, as well as Xingkong's business liaison calls, have been non-stop these past few days.
"Director Sun, hello! We are a top-tier jewelry brand from XX. We've heard that you and Ms. Liu are getting married soon, and we hope to have the honor of sponsoring Ms. Liu's complete wedding jewelry set, including the design of her main diamond ring."
"Hello, Ms. Yifei! We are a top-tier haute couture wedding dress brand from XX. Our chief designer is eager to create a unique and dreamlike wedding dress just for you. If you would like to give us this opportunity, we will sponsor all your wedding expenses."
"Mr. Sun, Ms. Liu, we are from the XX Top Hotel Group. Our most luxurious manor castle is perfect for hosting a wedding of the century. We are willing to provide the venue and full-service concierge service."
"We are a top-tier wedding planner in XX, with extensive experience in organizing weddings for international celebrities."
"XX luxury car brand is willing to provide a full fleet of wedding cars."
"XX Winery is willing to sponsor all the wines for the wedding."
Phone calls, emails, and even in-person visits poured in, with sponsorship offers pouring in, each more generous than the last, covering almost every aspect of the wedding. Their core demand was singular: to become an official sponsor or supplier of Sun Yi & Liu Yifei's wedding and share in this destined-to-be-the-grand wedding of the century.
"I don't know what these brands are thinking. Our wedding is only half a month away, and they're already sponsoring wedding dresses and wedding planning. How is it possible for them to make it in time?" Liu Yifei complained helplessly.
But there's really no way around it. As a celebrity, you have a mutually beneficial working relationship with these brands. You can politely decline, but you absolutely can't "show your displeasure."
Otherwise, who will want you to be their spokesperson in the future?
"Sigh, I never thought I'd be the one having people eagerly offering me money, and instead having to worry about how to refuse," Sun Yi chuckled dryly, making a self-deprecating joke.
"You still have the nerve to joke around!" Liu Yifei glared at her husband reproachfully, and said somewhat irritably, "What should we do? The others are fine, but this morning the director of Chanel China and the heads of LV and Bulgari called me, saying they wanted to sponsor my wedding."
"Chanel wanted to sponsor all the dresses. I told them I had already ordered my wedding dress, and they said they could also sponsor bridesmaid dresses and toast dresses."
"And LV, they said they wanted to sponsor it, sponsor it."
Liu Yifei was too embarrassed to say it.
"What are they sponsoring?" Sun Yi asked curiously.
"Sponsor the handbags we use to receive monetary gifts~"
"Huh, there's this too?"
When Sun Yi heard that LV was going to sponsor Liu Yifei's handbag for receiving monetary gifts, his eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
If I remember correctly, they are a foreign brand, right? Why are they so down-to-earth?
"dare you laugh!"
As Sun Yi was being mentioned, Liu Yifei herself chuckled. She hadn't expected that these top international brands would go to such lengths to sponsor her wedding.
The gift money packet and the toasting dress have been prepared.
"And Bulgari, they want to sponsor the entire set of jewelry for the wedding, and they also said they would give me an extra pair of diamond rings. They also said that they have a newly built 5-star beach resort in Bali, and they hope that our wedding can be held there."
"Wow, that's quite comprehensive! Dresses, handbags, jewelry, hotels—it's all-inclusive!"
Sun Yi shook his head and smiled wryly, thinking about the several well-known international brands that the young woman endorsed, and felt a sense of helplessness. He understood the commercial interests of these brands; after all, if his wedding with Liu Tianxian were made public, it would definitely garner phenomenal attention.
But a wedding is, after all, a private and sacred moment, and he didn't want it to become a show filled with logos and commercial placements.
"Sisi, what are you thinking?"
Sun Yi's sudden question startled Liu Yifei.
She paused, her delicate eyebrows furrowing slightly, and said softly, "Let's accept it. It would make us look like we're using the wedding to make money, which would be too ugly. I don't like it."
"I want our wedding to be just the two of us, with relatives and friends, without any utilitarian motives."
What she wanted was never a lavish, high-profile event, but a pure, happy, and memorable wedding that belonged only to her and Sun Yi.
At this point, Liu Yifei pursed her lips, looking somewhat troubled, "But if I just turn them all down, I'm afraid it will hurt our relationship. After all, the endorsement contracts are still in effect, and it will be difficult to negotiate in the future."
"Ugh, so annoying~"
Sun Yi looked at his wife with surprise, not expecting that she could think of this.
In fact, given their current popularity, status, and income, they could easily ignore these sponsors. After all, it's such an important moment as their wedding, so it's understandable to keep it private.
But it will certainly hurt feelings, especially now that Liu Yifei is preparing to make a splash in the global arena.
These international brands aren't just about the endorsement fees; Sun Yi has long since looked down on those tens of millions of dollars. What he's really interested in is how these brands can boost Liu Yifei's international influence—that's his true objective.
Sun Yi rubbed his temples, his brain racing as he pondered if there was a way to achieve the best of both worlds.
Liu Yifei bit her lip, looking at Sun Yi with hopeful eyes. Usually, when unexpected situations arise and she needs to find a solution, she leaves it to her dear husband.
Of course, it wasn't that she couldn't think of this, but rather that she wanted to save face for her husband.
A man~
After a while, Sun Yi suddenly spoke up, "Qianqian, what do you think about us going to the beach for our honeymoon?"
"Huh?" Liu Yifei was taken aback.
This isn't supposed to be about whether or not to get sponsorships for the wedding, it's suddenly about the honeymoon.
Liu Yifei felt like she didn't have enough brain cells, but she still nodded, "The beach is great. As long as I'm with you, anywhere is fine."
“Then let’s do it this way.” Sun Yi snapped his fingers, his eyes becoming clear and decisive. “We’ll have two weddings.”
"Two games?"
"Yes, it's an internal event, only inviting the closest family members, best friends, teachers like Teacher Tian, and some leaders who can't refuse. It's not open to the public, and we don't accept sponsorships. It's simple, warm, and solemn. The focus is on the ceremony itself and the people we want to share the joy with."
Sun Yi explained.
"The other one can be our honeymoon party, a large-scale, limited-access thank-you banquet or wedding party. Bulgari has a beach resort hotel, so we can invite some media, friends in the industry, partners, and these enthusiastic 'brand friends' there, which can also be considered as a way to give back to our fans."
"How about this, one Chinese style and one Western style, business is business, and we are business, and we will not interfere with each other."
Liu Yifei's eyes slowly brightened.
This solution not only preserves their privacy and sanctity regarding the core wedding ceremony, but also cleverly alleviates the pressure of a flood of brands, and can even transform that pressure into resources to host a grander, more expeditious celebration.
Anyway, a honeymoon is a trip, so it doesn't matter where you go.
"That's a great idea! The inner area is ours, just for family and friends. The outer area can be treated as a big party for everyone!"
"Honey, you're so amazing!"
