Chapter 305 - The Alcohol Level is Too High! I Misbehaved!
After Vera left the villa, Jiang Yuning made a phone call to Shen Yichen. She knew that something must have cropped up and caused Vera to be so stressed and worried.
“A few days ago, Vera met up with the contact person for the jewelry line. After the meeting, they were already in discussions to finalize the contract. However Vera suddenly received a phone call from the other party early this morning, informing her that they have already found a new spokesperson for their jewelry endorsement. Vera had spent a lot of time and effort into securing this endorsement. Therefore, she would certainly feel stressed and upset about this endorsement getting snatched from your hands at the final moment.”
“What jewelry brand is this?”
“Fairy Tale,” Shen Yichen replied. “It’s the jewelry line which often sets up their counters and booths in all the amusement parks around the country.”
“Do you know who snatched the resource from me?” Jiang Yuning asked again.
“You…you want to snatch it back?” Shen Yichen asked as he understood the meaning behind Jiang Yuning’s words immediately.
“Do you think it’s that easy to snatch something belonging to me?” Jiang Yuning said as she laughed. “Give me more information about the jewelry line, as well as some information about the artiste who snatched my resources. I will study it first.”
“I will send it to you through email in a short while,” Shen Yichen replied. “But…don’t you think that you are doing too much fieldwork on your own?”
It was really quiet in the living room after Lu Jingzhi left the villa. At this time, Jiang Yuning took out her laptop to check the email that Shen Yichen had sent her.
It seemed as though her resource had been stolen away by the other party who had a stronger background than her. Moreover, the reason that Fairy Tale had quoted for awarding the endorsement to the other party was that they felt the price that Vera had quoted was too high.
Jiang Yuning was so popular and famous right now, so was this price really too high?
The opponent who had stolen her resource was none other than the singer Zhong Hongyu. Wasn’t this her classmate from the music course that she enrolled for in college? Although Jiang Yuning had dropped out from college during freshman year itself, she still knew a few people from college at that time.
What was even more interesting was the fact that the other party already achieved some accomplishments in the music industry.
After that, Jiang Yuning called Shen Yichen. “Director Shen, sorry for the trouble but I am going to need you to help me contact the person in charge at Fairy Tale. I would like to meet up with him as soon as possible.”
“I will accompany you to the meeting later.”
“No, it’s okay. I will bring the young paparazzo along with me,” Jiang Yuning replied, as she felt it had been a long time since the young paparazzo had last followed her on a mission.
“Alright then. I will call you later.”
Jiang Yuning took this time to study Fairy Tale’s history. She discovered that this brand mainly focused on the sale of their jewelry in amusement parks, with their main target market being young girls between the ages of five to twelve years old. Therefore, most of their jewelry would be designed for younger girls. How could Zhong Hongyu’s rock star image be suitable for this branding?
The other reason why Zhong Hongyu had successfully snatched her resource was because this brand was not exactly doing very well in the Asian market.
As she thought about these factors, Jiang Yuning spent the afternoon selecting and dressing up as one of the most popular anime characters.
When the young paparazzo came over to pick Jiang Yuning up at three o’clock that afternoon, he was extremely shocked to see her dressed up as though she was cosplaying.
“Sister Yuning, are you into cosplay nowadays?”
“You will understand why I am doing this later,” Jiang Yuning replied as she got into the car.
The person in charge of Fairy Tale would be taking the seven o’clock flight out of Luo City tonight. This was their last day in Luo City and they had originally intended to give the brand endorsement to Jiang Yuning. However, Zhong Hongyu had suddenly appeared out of no where and obtained the endorsement contract after winning over the hearts of the high-level executives. In fact, how could a twenty-four year old singer who was into rock music and love songs be the appropriate ambassador for their brand?
However, since their sales result were already very negative in the Asian market, the senior level management had decided to take their chances and award the endorsement contract to Zhong Hongyu instead.
At four o’clock in the afternoon, several representatives from Fairy Tale were already waiting for Jiang Yuning in the hotel conference room. They had agreed to meet up with Guangying Media but they were only willing to give Jiang Yuning fifteen minutes to speak.
Jiang Yuning and the young paparazzo arrived at the hotel at four o’clock and the hotel staff led them to the appointed meeting room immediately.
The people waiting in the conference room were all foreigners and they were all really impressed when they saw Jiang Yuning entering the room.
“I like it.”
“You came prepared.”
The people started praising her in English. However, they did not dare to be too high profile because the decision would ultimately be made by the general manager.
At this time, Jiang Yuning took the opportunity to speak to the top person in charge. “Mr. Lyle, would you like to turn around Fairy Tale’s situation in the Asian region?”
