The sweetest in the entertainment industry

Chapter 446 Not a Single Bit of Dissatisfaction

Gu Lanxi is not the kind of naive girl who lives a muddled life and only listens to her agent's arrangements.

On the contrary, she is very opinionated and independent, with a strong personality and the ability to get things done. She knows what she wants and what work is waiting for her.

So when it comes to holidays, I won't deny it.

It's still early, so whether we win or lose the argument, it won't matter.

But I still can't help but wonder to myself, "Should I take on fewer endorsements?"

Last year, I went hiking several times and even followed Lu Nanting to see his concerts abroad. The year before last, I followed him offline more than ten times. I also followed the migratory birds for two months, hiking, bird watching, enjoying shopping, and skateboarding in the park. I was so happy and free back then!
This year, she has various endorsements, two new companies that are on the right track, and a husband who suddenly appeared, as well as his family, all of which require her to take time to deal with, inevitably reducing her personal space.

I didn't regret it, but I was a little unhappy.

That slight unpleasantness is like going out in the rain wearing a new pair of shoes, only to find your feet covered in mud when you come back.

As Mei Xue spent more time with her, she gradually evolved into a "little deaf and blind" creature that could transform at any time.

If you see something you don't like, or hear something you don't like, just pretend you didn't see or hear anything, and just say what you want to say:

"The magazine will arrange at least three more this year, but there's no rush. Let me talk to you about the endorsement first."

Yu Xin brought in a face mask, and Gu Lanxi lay back while Yu Xin put it on for her, continuing to dress the doll in white lace socks.

Mei Xue exchanged a few words with Yu Xin about work, and after Yu Xin left, she closed the door behind her before coming back and sitting down next to her.

"The skincare endorsement deal has already been finalized. If you have no problem with it, sign the contract as soon as you return to China. Before you join the production team, let's shoot the promotional materials first. We'll promote the moisturizing and whitening essence at the end of the month, and then shoot the sunscreen promotional materials in June. We'll leave May to 'Lurking' and not try to steal the spotlight."

Gu Lanxi had a face mask on and wasn't very talkative, so she just nodded in agreement.

She has been using this moisturizing and whitening essence for several months and the results are quite good.

"How's the selection process for other endorsements going?"

Gu Lanxi is very strict when accepting endorsements. She not only requires various test reports, but also insists on trying the product first and only discussing the next step if she is satisfied.

In conclusion, product quality must be the top priority.

Secondly, background checks are also necessary and must be done well.

Don't let a brand be exposed in scandal right after its official announcement.

Multinational luxury brands, in particular, can get into serious trouble if they accidentally touch on sensitive areas.

Mei Xue knew her standards and had always acted in accordance with them, so when Mei Xue asked her about it, she wasn't ashamed at all.
"We discussed it before, and in order to balance your work, we would only accept ten endorsements when you are in full condition. Five have been confirmed now, and we have been screening five more since last year. You have been busy before, so I didn't have time to explain it to you in detail."

Gu Lanxi put socks on the doll and then took out a pair of shoes the size of her little finger and put them on it.

Mei Xue ignored her, opened a spreadsheet, and whispered the details to her:

"High-end cosmetics and fragrances are brands you love, and the brand has already expressed interest. They're just waiting for your previous spokesperson's contract to expire before renewing it seamlessly. As for jewelry, watches, and ready-to-wear bags, there are also high-end brands that are currently vying for your attention. There's one more that I'm still undecided about: whole-house customization, laundry detergent pods, mobile phones, and computers. These are all things that can greatly enhance your brand awareness. I haven't asked you yet what you prefer?"

Despite her young age, Gu Lanxi has won numerous awards and achieved great box office success. She is also beautiful, highly professional, and has an impressive academic background.

In addition, she is a movie star and basically doesn't take on idol dramas. She also has the resources, so marriage doesn't affect her acting opportunities. On the contrary, thanks to Lu Nanting's support, she doesn't lack popularity now.

After years of keeping a low profile, he started taking on endorsements after establishing his own studio, and every single offer he received was dazzling.

Other celebrities would kill for endorsements, but with her, you can only patiently wait for her to choose.

It was precisely because there were so many choices that Mei Xue couldn't make up her mind.

Fortunately, the artist she works with is intelligent; all she needs to do is make a careful selection and then present the options.

Mei Xue explained the situation of each brand in turn. Gu Lanxi pondered for a moment and made up her mind:
"I recommend whole-house customization. I personally renovated my previous house, and the partners were excellent in every way."

In people's minds, a house is always synonymous with home.

Gu Lanxi's married status is a plus for her. Furthermore, the home furnishing brand is very wealthy, so her endorsement fee will be high, and they're very generous with their extensive distribution. If the collaboration goes well and the contract is renewed multiple times, it will greatly enhance her national recognition.

"That's the downside of being a movie star; they tend to be aloof, and their popularity with the public isn't as high as that of TV drama actors."

"Then I'll follow up on that."

Mei Xue lowered her head to take notes, then looked up again and asked, "Teacher Lu has an endorsement deal with a home furnishing brand, right? Won't that cause a conflict?"

When the time comes, one of the couple will say this brand of furniture is good, and the other will say that brand of furniture is wonderful. Which one should the fans buy?
"He's been in that endorsement deal since his debut, he's really attached to it, so I'll switch to someone else!"

Gu Lanxi thought for a moment and asked Mei Xue, "Have any eyewear brands contacted me?"

Given the preconceived notion of academic high-achievers, brands should be approaching her.

"Yes, I hadn't considered that before. It's mainly because their previous spokesperson was caught cheating and their house just collapsed, which is a bit unlucky."

Given that Gu Lanxi is a bit superstitious, Mei Xue's judgment is understandable.

Gu Lanxi glanced at her: "Once bitten by a snake, twice shy. Brands like this will be more careful in choosing spokespeople. To get a better spokesperson, they might offer a higher endorsement fee. Also, to eliminate the negative impact from the past, they will definitely put a lot of effort into promotion. For me, this is the perfect fit."

When it comes to making money, Gu Lanxi's superstitions are like Schrödinger's cat's superstitions—it all depends on how she interprets them.

Mei Xue silently noted this down and then told her many other things.

After we finished talking, the face mask was applied.

Yu Xin smiled and brought over the nail polish to do her nails.

Gu Lanxi had bright red nail polish done for her wedding, and more than twenty days later, she had already removed it. She usually only applies a little clear nail polish, but today she had an event, so she naturally wanted to get a nail polish that matched her look.

Although Extreme is an outdoor brand, it has always been known for its trendy and cool style. This time, it collaborated with a high-end women's clothing brand to launch a lot of clothing with integrated elements.

Gu Lanxi's look today is all about sweet and cool style.

The upper part of the hair is braided and tied into a cool high ponytail, while the lower part of the hair is braided into thin braids and hangs down.

The pink, shiny skirt uses three-dimensional tailoring and different layers of materials to achieve a natural, voluminous look. The white, high-waisted fitted top reveals a supple waist, highlighting a long, swan-like neck and an excellent waist-to-hip ratio. Paired with a new sky-blue short jacket from the brand, it ensures warmth while showcasing the charm of contrasting colors.

Gu Lanxi is quite young, and the brand mainly targets young people.

The fashion industry prefers people with attitude and unique characteristics, and doesn't like stereotypical, cookie-cutter internet celebrities.

"Remember to keep a cool expression throughout, creating the feeling that your smile is extremely precious. That's cool."

While doing her nails, Yu Xin explained the key points of the styling to her.

"It's not that you can't laugh, but you have to control the amount of laughter and release it in the right places, focusing on creating a cute contrast."

Listening to their chatter, Gu Lanxi couldn't help but sigh: "I feel like I could wear this to breakdance, or even to a girl group dance. It really looks like an outfit for a music show."

No one tried to dissuade her; Mei Xue simply took the photo and sent it to Lu Nanting.

Lu Nanting has always liked bright colors. As soon as he saw the photo, he immediately called and asked the staff to hold up the phone for him to see. He praised her for looking beautiful and full of energy as he looked at the photo.

Gu Lanxi immediately felt incredibly energized, believing herself to be the most beautiful girl in the world today!

Mei Xue put away her phone, secretly exchanged a glance with Yu Xin, and then couldn't help but smile.

Who said being love-struck is troublesome?

It saves so much trouble.

I still have over 700 Glory Points left to advance to the Hall of Fame, so I'll try my best to update twice a month and get the monthly bonus tickets.

I'm begging for a minimum number of monthly votes at the beginning of the month!
If all goes well, it should be successful in September.

Please, please~~~
