Chapter 107: Chapter 93 Date with Mi
Yang Mi didn't agree right away.
On the way back, she still had her assistant pick her up with the car.
After all, she too had her own company, and whether it was endorsements or shooting TV dramas, everything needed to be decided through consultation with the company.
Of course, at her level, she could make her own decisions, and the consultation was just a formality out of respect.
The traffic inside the Second Ring Road was heavy, especially during rush hour, so the Alfa could only creep along.
"Big sister," Dilraba couldn't hide her discontent. "How could he be like that? He just sat there, eating his meal happily, and made us two just watch."
Yang Mi shot her a glance, "That's because we said we had already eaten."
Yang Mi tapped the driver, signaling her to pull over and buy some bread.
The kind with less sugar and fat.
"He is such a straight guy, not even considering that we, after all, are peerless beauties. He didn't even show a little care."
"You're overthinking it."
Yang Mi said, "As shameless as he is, he's really good to his own wife, which I do admire."
"Ah?" Dilraba was curious if the company was going to agree to his demands.
Otherwise, wouldn't she just be working for him for three years for nothing?
If she suddenly became popular, she would really lose out.
Of course, if she didn't become popular, then he would be the one at a loss.
No, that's not right. He invested in a TV drama; he couldn't possibly lose.
He could even get three years of her endorsements for free.
Seeing her not-so-shrewd look, Yang Mi knew she had probably figured it out.
"I was also taken advantage of by him before. The company will most likely agree to his terms. After all, your current status is still too low, one and a half million is already enough to sell you out," she said.
After speaking, she closed her eyes to sleep.
The shameless do not do business at a loss, that's for sure.
Zhao Liying alone has already made Tengying renowned, and now they are working on Tenghui Capital and Fei Yangyang Hotpot City.

Clearly, they are blossoming on all fronts.
Not like their Jiaxing, which just honestly makes money by producing TV dramas.
An entertainment company whose headquarters is a 300-square-meter office—Tengying is the only one in the entire industry.
Small as it may be, it seems not to hinder their profit-making.
Jiaxing is large, with an entire headquarter building.
Inside, there's not only their own actor training classes, but also over a dozen well-known signed actors.
They are certainly a leading company in the drama industry.
But what of it? When Tengying wanted to pay eight million for one day of Yang Mi, those executives still eagerly agreed.
As for Dilraba, just like Yang Mi thought, one and a half million was enough to sell her out three times.
Karamay had no space to resist.
Water Cloud Space already had Yang Mi as an endorser, so adding Dilraba would be like getting one for free.
The key is that they offer too much.
In 2014, the TV drama industry hadn't yet been saturated with investments, and all the famous film and television companies were still in their early stages.
The film industry didn't count; that was a higher-end and different circle.
A bit later.
Chen Pingsheng received the letter of agreement from Jiaxing's vice president.
The date for Yang Mi was set for the last day of March, though the eight million needed to be transferred in advance.
Chen Pingsheng had no objections. It was only early March now; he had a month's time, which was more than enough to prepare the grand "Date with Honey" campaign.
The target wasn't high; even without Yang Mi's personal presence, they previously made over thirty million.
Now that Water Cloud Space had accumulated a large number of high-end customers and Yang Mi would make a personal appearance.
They could definitely make fifty or sixty million.
With a random increase by multiples, it would definitely make up for his current cash shortfall.
...
The next day.
Yang Mi took a morning off to Tengying to prepare for shooting the promotional film for Water Cloud Space.
She thought they would at least put on a big show here; after all, they spent eight million for a day, so hiring a top-line director would be a breeze.
But the result...
Chen Pingsheng directed Bai Xin and Jiang Yilei, "Can you two be a bit more professional?"
"Boss, we've never photographed a celebrity as big as Yang Mi before. It's normal for our hands to tremble a bit, right?"
In the middle of the night.
He had Jiang Yilei write the promotional copy and even entrusted her with the high-level task of photographing Yang Mi.
With only the three of them in the company, it was normal for one person to do the work of several others, right?
"Don't be nervous, Yang Mi is also a human, with one nose, two eyes, one mouth, and not as good-looking as you. What's there to be nervous about!"
Jiang Yilei was close to tears, "Boss, you can't blame me for this. I didn't exactly excel in my directing studies, and Yang Mi is my idol; the fact that I can still stand here is already something I'm proud of."
Yang Mi would swear, this was definitely the most embarrassing shoot she had ever done since becoming a top-tier celebrity.
What kind of people are these, just hiring a company marketer to shoot her photos.
And what he said, was that even human language?
"Chen Pingsheng, I swear, this is definitely the last time we're working together," Yang Mi fumed.
Chen Pingsheng hurriedly explained, "Be understanding, I thought you'd bring your own photographer with you."
Yang Mi: "..."
If I'd known this was the situation with your film company, I would have brought a whole team today.
"Forget it, I'll do the filming. Just read this with some emotion, okay?"
Chen Pingsheng used his own phone to film. The resolution wasn't very clear, but it was enough for everyone to know it was Yang Mi in person.
"Life is busy, women need to love themselves even more. On March 30th, meet Yang Mi at Water Cloud Space, be your own queen, and shine with confidence."
Undoubtedly a professional top-tier actress, her presence was absolutely strong.
Chen Pingsheng reviewed the playback and was quite satisfied.
Yang Mi found everything disagreeable.
Whenever she went to film, whether it was the crew or the equipment, everything was always top-notch.
This time, they were filming with a phone.
Such a disgrace to the industry.
"OK, not bad."
Yang Mi turned and left, and while at it, decided to ruthlessly block this jerk.
She would deal with it before the event.
Chen Pingsheng didn't care what she did; as long as she cooperated with him to make money, it was fine.
After she left, he consulted with Jiang Yilei.
"We've got the video shot. The success of this event hinges on your network promotion."
"No problem."
Jiang Yilei took on the task and immediately prepared to launch her online promotion.
It's worth mentioning that the clientele of Water Cloud Space can only be those absolutely high-end, wealthy women.
The promotion had to take a high-end route as well.
He then notified the management of Water Cloud Space to fully cooperate with the event.
"On March 30th, Water Cloud Space will close for the day and halt all training at headquarters. Everyone is to prepare to support the major event 'Date with Mi', with top-tier celebrity Yang Mi making a personal appearance."
Song Yanxi was planting flowers at home when her phone rang; she herself was stunned—her husband hadn't mentioned this to her.
"Yang Mi is coming? Are you sure?"
Zhou Chun: "Yang Mi is actually coming?"
Chen Qi: "Bro, you've managed to invite Yang Mi again?"
Chen Pingsheng: "It's not just her, Dilraba is coming too, and the ageless goddess of Xiangjiang is being contacted. The ageless heartthrob Fei Xiang is also within reach. You guys plan it out, we're targeting one billion in top-ups that day."
Yang Mi's personal influence is indeed powerful.
But she has already endorsed breast enhancement, while the ageless goddess of Xiangjiang can represent anti-aging.
Anti-aging is definitely a cutting-edge project in high-end beauty, the kind where money is no object.
If they want to hit the target of one billion in top-ups, they must invite someone with enough persuasive power in anti-aging.
He had already thought of a candidate.
As for Fei Xiang, he was the dream of many middle-aged women.
With him on board, what product wouldn't sell well?
He thought that if they made it a bit more exciting, reaching one billion was definitely within great hopes.
