Chapter Two Hundred and Eighty

Xiao Qiang, the most popular female artist in Taiwan nowadays, has just been selected as the number one most beautiful female artist in Asia, and was chosen as the female artist whom men want to date.

Sitting opposite Xiao Qiang, Lin Feng felt the amazing **** charm of Xiao Qiang's whole body all the time, which was almost suffocating. However, Lin Feng almost didn't leave directly because of the asking price of his agent.

"Dong Lin, your company is one of the most well-known game companies in Asia, and Miss Xiao Qiang has just ranked first in Asia's most beautiful female artist. I think your cooperation is a match made in heaven, definitely 1+1>2." Agent Jiang Lin The cooperation between Feng's company and Xiao Qiang blows the sky into chaos.

"Ms. Xiao Qiang can accept Audition’s three-year endorsement fee of 1 million, but the remuneration of the'Phantom' mp3 player, I think, Miss Xiao Qiang should be matched with this price——" The agent wrote "1" on the paper. ", followed by three zeros.

Ten million in three years!

"Renminbi or Taiwan dollar?" Lin Feng asked calmly with a heartbeat.

"Renminbi, Miss Xiao Qiang is worth this worth." The agent said naturally.

Lin Feng frowned tighter. Ten million renminbi is equivalent to more than 40 million Taiwan dollars, which is a bit of a big talk. Last year, Xiao Qiang’s worth was about 2 million yuan (a year), and now it has doubled. Although she has just won the first prize of the most beautiful female artist in Asia, it is too expensive and rising too fast. .

Lin Feng's displeased look was naturally seen by Xiao Qiang's manager Timmy.

"Mr. Lin, I believe that Miss Xiao Qiang will be worth the money. Her popularity is huge in Hong Kong, Taiwan and mainland China. She has a huge popularity and fan base." Timmy continued to promote Xiao Qiang's charm.

Lin Feng admitted that Xiao Qiang in 2001 was just a big hit, and he did have a huge popularity. The remuneration of 10 million in three years is not too expensive. However, Lin Feng has become accustomed to cheaply signing tomorrow's superstars, whether it is twins or Jay Chou, who signed the contract before, for up to two years, their popularity will not lose to Xiao Qiang, and in the future they will far surpass Xiao Qiang. After all, Xiao Qiang is 33 years old this year, and women will age slowly after they are 30 years old, especially for a female celebrity who is known for her beauty.

Signing with twins and Jay Chou cost one million in three years, and signing Xiao Qiang to ten million in three years. How could this account be considered uneconomical? In the end, Lin Feng and Timmy broke up. However, the two sides did not tear their faces, the business is not in love!

"Timmy, whether the asking price is too high, I also like the'Phantom', and it is said that the sales in mainland China, Hong Kong, South Korea and Japan are very good. If I can become an international brand, it does not matter if I endorse a little bit. It is popular with me. It is still very helpful! At that time, we can ask for a higher price in other advertising contracts." Xiao Qiang is definitely not the kind of woman who only has a face and breasts. Since last year, she has spent millions of dollars in filming calendars and sent them to reporters and fans every year to show her cleverness.

"Stephanie (Xiao Qiang's English name), you have to know that women’s youth is limited. You are no longer young. Although you are becoming popular now, no one can guarantee the future of the star industry. You are now becoming popular, no How can I make more money!" Timmy exhorted.

Xiao Qiang frowned. Timmy did not make a mistake. The life cycle of stars is limited. Especially a female celebrity, once the beauty is old, most of them retire. Either to be a small boss, or to live on your savings, and if you're lucky, you can marry a good husband. But those are the lucky few after all. For most celebrities, it is better to make more money while they are young and when they become popular.

"Okay, stephanie, don't think about it. Now you are the most popular among female artists in Taiwan. If Lin Dong wants to sell'Phantom' in Taiwan, he will definitely sign you. Besides, in Asia, your popularity is already Very high, unless the contract allows you to enter Hollywood, that way, you can endorse for free. Otherwise, you should ask for reasonable compensation." Timmy said.

auzw.com Timmy has no choice but to endorse the audition group with one million in three years. So many emperor superstars in Hong Kong have signed contracts, and Wu Zongxian in Taiwan has also signed contracts. If Xiao Qiang asks for a high price, he will be criticized for being too high, and if he doesn't sign a contract, even more so, I am afraid that Xiao Qiang will be criticized by the media for not being a top Taiwan star. Since signing is a must, Timmy naturally hopes to recover a little loss in the "Phantom" advertising endorsement contract.

Xiao Qiang smiled at Timmy's introduction to Hollywood. Entering Hollywood is not easy said than done. Even a big brother like Chow Yun-fat, when he arrives in Hollywood, he immediately becomes a second-rate or even third-rate star. Only Jackie Chan and Jet Li, who have "Chinese Kung Fu" stars, can barely gain a foothold in Hollywood. She is just an Asian woman, even if she won the first place in Asia's most beautiful female artist, for Hollywood, she is just an ordinary Asian actor.

Putting aside the thought of marching into Hollywood, Xiao Qiang didn't think about it anymore. Anyway, she is becoming popular now, and it is not bad for this advertising endorsement contract. Still listen to Timmy, take advantage of the popularity, make more money to prevent old age.

Lin Feng hesitated when he returned to his residence. Although Taiwan’s market is not as good as Japan’s, it will never lose to South Korea and Hong Kong. In Taiwan, a region where celebrity worship is absolutely serious, the effect of a popular celebrity is amazing. Besides, signing Xiao Qiang with ten million in three years is not too expensive.

When Lin Fengshang was hesitating, Tan Zhi's call made Lin Feng cancel the contract. Only 30,000 "Phantoms" arrived in Taiwan this time. Since the popularity of the market has exceeded Tan Zhi's expectations, Tan Zhi can only protect overseas markets now. Japan and South Korea are the focus, followed by Hong Kong and the mainland market. Taiwan, an untapped emerging market, can only be ranked last.

Since there are only 30,000 copies, Lin Feng doesn't have to hesitate, so he can directly use Jay Chou as the advertising spokesperson. Of course, Ariel Lin, who had just become an artist under the "Second World" brand, replaced Xiao Qiang's role. Although the two have just started to take the position, and the other is still new and can no longer be new, but with the charm of "Phantom", there is still no worries about sales of 30,000 units. What's more, please move Xiao Qiang for 30,000 "Phantoms". The price/performance ratio is really not high.

In the evening, Lin Feng called Xiao Qiang, expressing very sorry that he could not invite Xiao Qiang to become the spokesperson of "Phantom" for some reason. However, Lin Feng and Xiao Qiang reached a contract with Audition.

Now that the audition team endorses the contract, not only the celebrities feel a little embarrassed, but Lin Feng is also embarrassed. If Lin Feng, a recognized emperor superstar in Taiwan's industry, does not sign, he will definitely be criticized. But in Lin Feng's mind, Taiwan has only a few stars worthy of signing. Although 1 million in three years is not expensive, Lin Feng does not want to sign some stars whose sales are obviously not enough (for Audition).

For example, Wu Bai, if the contract is signed, the "sales" must be limited.

In the end, Lin Feng signed a contract with most of the emperor superstars recognized by the Taiwan industry. Wu Zongxian, Wu Bai, Ren Xianqi and others. Of course, there is also the former super idol Lin Zhiying. Although the stars are a little bleak now, Lin Feng knows that in the future, the former Asian popular little king will return to the public's attention.

As for the hottest f4 now, after receiving Lin Feng's call, he didn't show up too much, and he signed the contract very readily. But 4 people are endorsement fees of 1 million yuan per person for three years. Lin Feng didn't have too many opinions on this, after all, the four of them are very popular now, and they are worth the price. Moreover, f4 is definitely one of Audition’s best-selling "stars".

This "All-Star Team" signing plan is so smooth, Lin Feng also deeply remembers Andy Lau's favor, as well as the favor of more than ten emperor superstars signed in Hong Kong. Without their refreshing signing, he is the best of the audition group. The star lineup has never been as smooth as it is now.

After 30,000 "Phantoms" arrived in Taiwan, under the promotion of Jay Chou and Ariel Lin, they were sold out by merchants and consumers who came to hear the news in just one day.

Price, the price of "Phantom" plays a decisive role in it. Of course, because Lin Feng's "Phantom" adopts a paid download mode, it can also get benefits for major record companies, so it also contributes to the flames behind it. This is also a very important reason for the popularity of "Phantom" in Asia.

As for downloading mp3 fees, Lin Feng also sets different prices according to the different economic levels of various regions. Of course, a large part of it is required by record companies. Mainland users download one mp3 for 1 cent, Hong Kong users 1 HKD to download one song, Taiwan users 4 New Taiwan dollars, South Korean users 50 won to download one song, and Japanese users 30 yen to download one song.

There is no doubt that mainland players are the most cost-effective, and Japanese users are the most expensive, but this is also the price adjusted according to the different price indices of various places. Of course, due to the actual consumption power of mainland consumers and the rampant piracy, record companies can only selectively "abandon" the mainland market, and the default price of 0.01 yuan for downloading an mp3 is extremely unreasonable. As for other places, it will naturally not be as cheap as the mainland.

Although consumers in South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, and Hong Kong complain about the low download prices enjoyed by mainland consumers, they are still extremely cheap compared to the economic strength of various regions. Coupled with the joint publicity and suppression of the record company, this complaint will not go away.

After the Taiwan incident, Lin Feng took Lin Yichen back to Shanghai. But before leaving, Ariel Lin received a year's endorsement fee in advance and gave it to his mother, so that the family would no longer run around because of lack of money. Lin Yichen can also leave Taiwan with confidence and follow Lin Feng to Shanghai.
