You are a star, why do you have all the skills from the underworld?

"Just this evening, I received a huge endorsement offer from a brand."

When Fat Orange said this, his face was full of excitement.

On the other hand, Xu Yi asked very calmly: "Oh? Sky-high price...what price?"

Fat Orange stretched out two fingers and lowered his voice, as if he was afraid of being heard by others: "Twenty million! Boss, that's a full twenty million. You don't have to do anything, you just need to cooperate in filming an advertisement. "

Twenty million...

Xu Yi secretly thought that the price was not low.

This kind of endorsement price is basically considered top-notch for domestic celebrities.

Xu Yi was just thinking:

I just broke the 400-meter freestyle record, so I am worth this; what if I also broke the 100-meter sprint world record? In terms of commercial value and topicality, the latter is at least a hundred times greater than the former!

Not to mention breaking records, even if Asians squeeze into the 100-meter Olympic finals, they can cause a stir and be called flying men. If this breaks the world record and breaks the dominance of black people in this field, you can imagine how uproar it will be.

At that time, Xu Yi's net worth was probably not something that could be obtained with just 20 million.

"Boss, why don't you look excited at all?"

Fat Orange was surprised to see Xu Yi's expression remained as usual and calm.

Xu Yi smiled and said, "I was overly excited, so I was calm instead. Sister Ju, what do you think of this endorsement?"

Fat Orange immediately said:

"I think you can take it."

"The brand is a first-line sports brand in our country. It has always been focused on the student group and has a considerable market share. In the past two or three years, it has also begun to exert efforts outside the campus. It can be said that it is currently the absolute leader in domestic sports brands, and its reputation is still good. good."

"Our cooperation with each other will definitely be a win-win situation."

Xu Yi nodded while listening and agreed: "Well, judging from the current situation, this is indeed the case. But I don't think there is a rush. Let's wait another week. Someone should offer a higher price by then."

Fat Orange:? ? ?

Are you stupid, thinking that there are many people who are taken advantage of these days?

If you can meet someone who gives you 20 million, you should cherish it. What do you mean someone will offer a higher price then? Are you crazy about losing your mind? Fat Orange felt that he needed to remind his boss to have a clear head.

But don't be so ignorant that you miss such a business opportunity.

"Boss, this is how I see it."

"Actually, many brands have come to us to talk about endorsements in the past two days, and most of them have bids between 800 million and 1000 million. I personally feel that if this brand can offer million, it is considered very sincere. Why don’t we think about it?”

Xu Yi's answer was firm and without emotion:

"Not consider."

"Sister Ju, if you reject the other party, just say that I have been training recently. Let's talk about the endorsement after I take some time."

This kind of rejection also requires skills.

What kind of words can be used to reject the other party while leaving an opening in case there is still cooperation in the future? In the business world, you must be tactful in everything you do and say. After all, there are no eternal strangers, only eternal interests.

Fat Orange naturally doesn't need to worry about doing this kind of thing.

She was just very sorry.

If I miss this endorsement opportunity, I don’t know how long it will take to get an endorsement of this level again in the future. Commercial endorsement, in a sense, also symbolizes the artist's status. If Xu Yi accepts this 20 million endorsement deal, he will at least be a first-tier celebrity, let alone a top-tier celebrity.

Although he does not have many works yet, it does not affect his status in the circle.

What a pity, what a pity!

Seeing that Xu Yi had made up his mind, Fat Orange had no other choice.

She is just an agent, Xu Yi is her boss, and Xu Yi has to make the final decision.

Xu Yi saw that Fat Orange was a little uninterested and couldn't help but smile:

"Sister Ju, just put your heart back in your stomach!"

"I said, if there is a higher endorsement, there will definitely be one. Don't worry, I care about making money more than you. After all... money is too much to spend."

Xu Yi still had chips in his hand, so he was naturally in no hurry.

He is now for sale.

There are still five days until the third episode of "Supernova Games" is broadcast. According to Xu Yi's understanding of Yang Yiming's urinary properties, the director must have created another suspense in the third episode. The real record-breaking competition should be broadcast in the fourth episode, which will be seven days later.

Five days plus seven days, that is to say, Xu Yi still has to wait for twelve days.

This kind of thing can't be rushed.

……

Magic City, Yixiu Media.

After Zheng Tao and Liu Bo landed, they contacted Guan Yun. The two passed on Xu Yi's news, and Guan Yun naturally had no objection. The three-person team finally reached an agreement to join Xu Yi's studio.

"Now that we have a new owner, we must do this first job well."

Although the details of onboarding are still handled by Fat Orange.

But the advertisement song for Youyourui is a job assigned by Xu Yi and must be completed well.

Hearing this, Guan Yun was surprised and said:

"What, you have a job?"

It's good to have a job.

In fact, the three of them had thought about it before, what would they do if they defected to Xu Yi and didn't open for a few months? Are you embarrassed to receive your salary? Unexpectedly, on the first day of employment, I was assigned a job.

Fulfilling, really fulfilling.

Zheng Tao smiled and said: "Well, it's a production of an advertising song. Boss Yi has already made a sample. We will make the demo in the next few days. By the way, Brother Bo, please contact Wang Xi!"

"No problem, leave it to me."

Liu Bo turned around and went to make a phone call.

Only then did Zheng Tao insert a copy of Xu Yi's 'Original Sound Creation' into the computer and click to play. "Lao Guan, please listen to it first. The difficulty this time should be less than before. On the one hand, the melody of the song is also simple, and on the other hand, Boss Yi seems to have... enlightened."

Guan Yun: "Are you enlightened?"

"Listen and you will know." Zheng Tao also knew how to explain.

On the plane, he and Liu Bo came to the same conclusion: Xu Yi was enlightened. Otherwise, a tone-deaf person would have to train around the clock. It would be impossible for him to develop his singing skills to this point in just a few months.

Guan Yun was patient and curious, and finally listened to the male version of "Sour and Sweet Is Me" sung by Xu Yi.

He frowned:

"Brother Tao, how can he sing this song?" "What are you thinking about?" Zheng Tao naturally knew what Guan Yun meant. He smiled and said, "This is for Wang Xi to sing. Wang Xi is For a little girl, singing this song is simply tailor-made.”

Guan Yun suddenly nodded.

At this moment, he finally understood what Zheng Tao meant by enlightenment just now. In this singing, Xu Yi showed the comprehensive qualities of a professional singer in terms of pitch, rhythm and range. Guan Yun had never seen this kind of performance in previous cooperations.

"What a genius!"

"In the future, he will probably sing the songs he writes himself."

"The Chinese music scene is probably about to usher in a big devil-level figure!"

Guan Yun couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Previously, Xu Yi, as the creator behind the scenes, could only have a name in writing lyrics and music. But in the future, as an original singer and singer, won't he kill the entire Chinese music scene?

With Xu Yi's current singing skills, he can easily kill a blockbuster film in an instant.

Zheng Tao thought for a while, then took over the conversation and said:

"Not necessarily."

"I heard that he is now in contact with film crews, and it is very likely that he will join the crew for filming. Then he may not have so much time to write and sing songs."

Guan Yun disagreed: "Does it take a lot of time for him to write songs?"

As soon as this question came up, Zheng Tao was speechless.

It seems...it really doesn't take much time!

In Xu Yi's previous creations, most of them took a nap, and the next day he thought about the songs and started singing directly. Judging from this kind of talent, even if Xu Yi wants to release an album, it will not take more than half a month.

This kind of terrifying creative ability is unique in the Chinese music world!

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this anymore." Zheng Tao brought the topic back to work, "Let's make the accompaniment tape first, and then when Wang Xi comes, we will record the vocals and try to send the demo to the boss tomorrow. "

"Row!"

Guan Yun didn't say anything. The two of them were familiar with this job.

Although this song is an advertising song with a light style, it is the first business order of the small team after joining the studio, so both Guan Yun and Zheng Tao attach great importance to it. A lot of effort has been put into the flexibility of the arrangement, the addition of instruments, the harmony of the vocals, etc.

the next day.

Wang Xi arrived as promised.

She wore a casual knitted sweater today and looked radiant. Since Wang Xi won the honor of Best Female Singer of the Year during the rookie season at the end of last year, she has officially made her debut.

With this halo, the attention and resources Wang Xi received were naturally much better than those of new singers who had not yet made their mark.

But she also understands in her heart that the only thing that a singer can truly rely on for a living is his works.

If there are no good works, they will soon be eliminated from the market.

So when Fat Orange contacted her, she didn't make any trade-offs at all and accepted the job immediately. Being able to sing Xu Yi's songs is already a blessing. Who cares about the money?

"Hello, Brother Tao! Hello, Brother Yun! Hello, Brother Bo!"

"We meet again!"

As soon as we met, Wang Xi took the initiative to say hello and said, "It's good for you. You have switched jobs to Xu Yi. Unlike me, I am still struggling at Yixiu Media."

"Xiao Wang, you are making fun of us!" Zheng Tao complained.

"We couldn't stay at Yixiu Media any longer, and we had nowhere to go. Boss Yi saw how pitiful we were, so he said he would take us in. It's not like you. You are a popular newcomer now. You must be very busy recently, right?"

These words were very useful to Wang Xi's ears.

Wear it thousands of times, but flattery will never wear it.

Everyone loves to hear nice words.

"not bad!"

Wang Xi smiled and said, "What song is it this time? It's rare that Xu Yi has a new song that reminds me of me. I will have to thank him personally later."

Zheng Tao and the others didn't know that Wang Xi sang for free, but this didn't have much to do with them. Whether it is zero remuneration or the market price of the newbie king, it does not affect Zheng Tao's income.

Although this song is an advertising song and the copyright has been sold to the brand, apart from commercial use, the online income from this song still belongs to the creator. This is the most different place in the Chinese music scene in this world from the previous life.

Zheng Tao took out the accompaniment tape that he had prepared.

But he first listened to Xu Yi's original version to Wang Xi and specifically explained the genre of the song. Unlike "Invisible Wings", "Sour and Sweet Is Me" is brighter and less heavy. The most important thing is to sing the youthful and invincible feeling of a little girl.

Wang Xi listened in his ears and remembered it in his heart.

……

While Zheng Tao and the others were nervously recording songs, Xu Yi was not idle either.

The General Army Art Center has applied for film project approval from Radio and Television, which also means that the preparations for the filming of this film are officially on the agenda. The subject matter has been finalized, and based on the evacuation incident from Morocco that occurred over thousands of years ago, the movie is tentatively titled "Operation Red Sea."

This name was also contributed by Xu Yi.

Of course, other people in the General Army Art Center also contributed many names. But Lu Yilian, who was in charge of making the decision, fell in love with the name at first sight. In the words of the Internet, it sounds like that!

Xu Yi sighed secretly, being cheated on again.

"There are a few important things coming next."

"First, find the director."

"It is best to be a director who has made similar themes, such as war films, feature films, and fighting films. If you are familiar with it, you can also recommend it. Lao Zhou, you are responsible for contacting the director and explaining clearly the causes and consequences of our film."

"Second, find a writing team."

"We already have a lot of materials. We don't need to create new stories in a wild way. We just need to process these materials and give them a little artistic treatment. But this workload is also very heavy, and it can never be completed by one person, so in the end Find me a mature screenwriting team, and my requirement is that the script must be polished within a month!"

"As for investment..."

"Don't worry about this. I will apply for funds from the organization. In addition, I will also recruit investors. After all, this is also a big movie of the General Army Art Center. You still need to have this confidence, right?"

Xu Yi's heart: Haha.

Wait until you get a beating from society.

Capital is only interested in profit, and they won't throw hundreds of millions of dollars in just because they want to give you face. As long as you can make money, even if it's a piece of shit, capital will fly in automatically like flies. But if there is a risk of not making money, you are just a gold brick, and capital may not take a second look.

This is the bloody reality.

As soon as Lu Yilian finished speaking, someone immediately suggested: "Why don't you find a national master? The national master has also filmed martial arts before, and has a good reputation. Moreover, the opening ceremonies of the previous Olympic Games and Asian Games were all produced by the national master. He still has a knack for handling big scenes like this."

"I propose the National Master, what do you think?" (End of Chapter)
