Chapter 34: The Patron
Chapter 34
Song JinXing finally understood the hint in his agent Ran Ting's frustrated and anxious expression. His expression was a bit complicated for a moment, "The car was bought by me." He glanced at the rearview mirror, "A car is coming, get in the car."
Ran hurriedly got in the car upon hearing this. It was her first time sitting in such an expensive luxury car, and her little heart was thumping rapidly, but she didn't know why she immediately believed it when her artist said the car was bought by her.
That calm yet powerful aura made her completely not doubt these words!
Having received two pieces of good news early in the morning, she was elated. After getting in the car, she told Song about the specific content of the endorsement.
One was the endorsement of Fengchi, the new SUV model of Song Group's new energy vehicle brand, and the other was the full line endorsement of Song Group's perfume brand Yunshan.
The car endorsement could be said to only endorse this new model, but the perfume endorsement was a full line endorsement! Since the establishment of Yunshan, which focuses on restoring natural authentic scents, it has rapidly occupied the domestic market, and each scent has been extremely popular.
Of course, because it was a domestic perfume, Yunshan still couldn't compare to the reputation of international luxury brands, but it was still the top domestic brand. Since its establishment, Yunshan had never hired a full line endorser, only individual popular products had hired endorsers with international fame.
Once the news that Zhong Ruanxing got the full line endorsement of Yunshan spreads out, it will surely cause huge discussions.
When Ran thought about it, she couldn't help but become extremely excited, "That person in charge of Song Group is also very easy to talk to. He said he would fully cooperate with our schedule based on your next work arrangements. Ruanxing, you're really going to strike it rich!"
Of course Song JinXing knew about all these that she talked about. After all, he personally picked the endorsements.
After parking the car properly, Song JinXing said, "Arrange the shooting schedule for the endorsement advertisements as soon as possible, all the work here needs to be wrapped up before entering the crew."
Ran immediately nodded her head, and also said, "Oh right, Ruanxing, the company has invited three acting teachers from the Central Academy of Drama to give two hours of acting lessons to the company's artists every morning starting the day after tomorrow. Do you want to participate? I'll sign you up if you do."
She certainly didn't think Zhong Ruanxing's acting skills were bad. After becoming her agent, she found and watched all of Zhong Ruanxing's previous works, and was very confident in her own artist's acting skills.
It was just that for any resources the company gave, she wanted to fight for them for her artist. After all, it was free teachers, it would be foolish not to take advantage.
Song JinXing didn't expect Xingyu to send charcoal in snow at this time, and he just happened to need guidance from teachers in practice. So he said, "Sign me up."
Ran happily nodded.
The two chatted as they entered the elevator. When the elevator doors opened on the first floor, a short-haired woman holding some documents walked in, and immediately put on an eager smile when she saw them.
"Ruanxing, you came to the company! Tingting, you're here too, good morning!"
Song JinXing didn't recognize this person, but Ran knew her.
Xu Bilin, the person in charge of the promotions department, was usually arrogant, and was best at trampling on inferiors to flatter superiors. When seeing artists with high popularity, she wished she could stick her face on them, but when meeting artists with low popularity, she would look at them with contempt, unwilling to even make small talk.
When Ran first joined the company, she suffered no small amount of contempt from her. She guessed Zhong Ruanxing was also looked down upon by her before.
Today it was really an eye-opener to witness such a two-faced person.
Song JinXing didn't speak, but Ran returned a polite smile, "Sister Xu, good morning!"
Song JinXing ignored her, but Xu BiLin didn't seem to mind at all. She smiled as if nothing had happened, "Congratulations Ruanxing! I heard you got Song Group's endorsement? What endorsement is it?"
The contract hadn't even been signed yet. Ran had only reported it to the leader in charge. How did she come to know about it?
This woman was not one to keep secrets. Now that she knew about it, there were probably not a few others who also knew. But there was nothing to hide anyway, the contract would be signed soon. Could it be taken back in these few minutes?
Ran tried not to look too smug, "It's the endorsement for Fengchi's new SUV model and Yunshan's full line."
Xu Bilin and the wife of a high-level executive were mahjong partners. She had heard about this playing mahjong last night from that leader's wife. When she first heard about it, she naturally didn't believe it.
What kind of company was Song Group? How could it be tarnished by a sensationalist starlet like Zhong Ruanxing!
But the leader's wife spoke definitively about it, saying the leader was very excited when he talked about this matter after coming home. Their company had never had an artist endorse Song Group's products before. It was imaginable that Song Group looked down on Xingyu.
But now Zhong Ruanxing had become the first artist from Xingyu to endorse Song Group's products. Even if it was Song Group that reached out to them, they wouldn't have to worry about future collaborations!
After hearing this, Xu Bilin felt very unhappy inside.
With just that sensationalist starlet Zhong Ruanxing, what made her so special? She had neither fame nor work, yet Song Group chose her instead of others. Don't tell me she slept with someone from Song Group again?
Xu Bilin felt extremely disgusted.
But as disgusted as she was, she also understood clearly that with this Song Group endorsement, Zhong Ruanxing would definitely rise to fame next, and she didn't even know how her backer would promote her in the future! So when she first saw Zhong Ruanxing earlier, she immediately put on an ingratiating smile.
She just didn't expect that her backer would be so generous as to give her two endorsements right away!
As someone in promotions, how could she not know what the full line endorsement of Yunshan signified?
Movie queen Yong Yun was the endorser of Yunshan's hit product [Night Rain Sends North]. Everyone in the industry knew that at that time, Yong Yun wanted to endorse the full line, but Song Group only gave her [Night Rain Sends North] that fit her image.
What made Zhong Ruanxing qualify for the full line endorsement of Yunshan? Was it because she was good in bed?
Xu Bilin congratulated her with words, but the jealousy and envy in her eyes could not be concealed at all.
Even a fool like Ran could see it now.
She just didn't understand, it was one thing for others to be jealous, but what business was it of Xu, who worked in promotions and wasn't an artist herself?
Ran was not without a temper either. Seeing the other party like this, her face immediately darkened as well. The moment the elevator doors opened, she pulled her artist out, without even greeting Xu Bilin.
Only when the elevator doors closed did Xu Bilin spit in contempt, "A cheap whore, let's see how long you can remain arrogant."
She was indeed not an artist, but she equally detested all women with glamorous looks.
Zhong Ruanxing topped that list.
Ran rushed out of the elevator with momentum, small as she was, she was quite strong. Even with a changed body, Song JinXing still didn't like physical contact, and imperceptibly withdrew his wrist.
Once in Ran's office, she said in a suppressed angry tone, "Don't bother with her Ruanxing, she's just jealous of your beauty! When we become popular in the future, people like her will be begging to ingratiate themselves with us."
In the days since they last met, the previously messy and chaotic office had been cleaned up by her into a neat and tidy space. There were even two potted plants on the windowsill, flourishing freely in the morning sunlight.
He was involuntarily reminded of Zhong Ruanxing, and thought of the plants she had picked for the CEO's office.
In his cold eyes emerged a smile he hadn't even noticed himself.
