Chapter 220 I Want to Fight for My Life (Ask for Monthly Votes)
"So, they only plan to sign me for one year. This is too insulting." Hao Yun was very angry.
"One million per year. If the endorsement effect is good, I will pay more to renew the contract."
"It doesn't matter whether it's money or not. I want to fight for it. I just want to prove that I am great. The sales of the things I endorse will definitely not be bad. Look at Wenquxing repeater and Geek biscuits. They are all awesome and have no friends."
Hao Yun looked like he was going to paint the wall with feces.
If it's one million for two years, it will definitely be a loss. There will be at least two No. 1 TV series next year, and they are all good dramas with huge investment and excellent production.
TV series are the things that can increase national popularity the most.
"Okay, then endorse Zhongxing mobile phones. If we can continue to sign next year, we can raise the price again."
"Do I have to use Zhongxing mobile phones in the future?"
Hao Yun took out two identical Sony Ericsson t618s, and he was a little tearful.
"It's just right. We can each get one later. It can be regarded as employee benefits." Shi Xiaoqiang gave a thumbs up.
"No, since you are the spokesperson, it is best for the whole team to use Zhongxing mobile phones. If you give a phone to Hao Yun and someone takes a picture of him using other brands, the sponsor will be unhappy." Wu Laoliu said seriously.
"Fuck, my Nokia," Shi Xiaoqiang was speechless and said, "Boss, do you feel guilty for endorsing this kind of domestic mobile phone that often breaks down?"
These days, most domestic manufacturers are OEM agents.
They can't keep up with the technology of making mobile phones, and are unwilling to invest huge amounts of money in research and development. Even if they do research and development, it is difficult to catch up with foreign countries in a short time.
Therefore, the return rate of domestic mobile phones is generally higher than that of foreign brands.
"Yes, it hurts, but my wallet doesn't hurt after the endorsement." Hao Yun said confidently.
Besides, domestic mobile phones are at least cheap, otherwise why can everyone sell domestic mobile phones to a market share of 53%.
Is it because of love?
"The brand will send a batch of mobile phones. At least we don't have to spend money to buy them. Now we can either give them to friends or use them for family members." Wu Laoliu made the final decision. He now manages several celebrities and has a lot of authority.
"What is the other endorsement?" Hao Yun was speechless.
"Yichun Clothing, there is nothing to say about this endorsement. I will pay 1.5 million for two years. It's the same as mobile phones. You will have to wear their clothes often in the future, but they should be specially customized for you so that you can wear them more stylishly."
Wu Laoliu's second endorsement is also very powerful.
Although after the several TV series shot next year are broadcast, Hao Yun's endorsement fee will definitely reach 2 to 3 million, reaching the level of Zhao Yanzi the year before last, and joining the ranks of first- and second-tier stars.
But time waits for no one.
The "wait" in "wait for the price" cannot be simply understood as waiting. "Waiting" is a process of seeking market recognition and self-examination.
The money that should be earned must be earned. At worst, it will not be renewed after two years, or it will be required to pay more.
"Fuck, idiot, I made 2.5 million in one go." Hao Yun breathed a sigh of relief, it was like a liberated serf singing a song.
"Pay taxes, don't you want to pay taxes?" Wu Laoliu and Hao Yun both didn't have the guts to do that.
"Pay, of course!" Hao Yun was the most active in paying taxes.
The quality of the mobile phone I endorsed might not be very good, and I felt guilty about it. Paying more taxes to the country can also buy peace of mind.
For mobile phone endorsement, 313,000 yuan in taxes for 1 million yuan, and pay Wu Laoliu and Shi Xiaoqiang a share of the salary and bonus, and deduct more than 100,000 yuan, Hao Yun got about 580,000 yuan.
For Yichun endorsement, 473,000 yuan in taxes for 1.5 million yuan, and some of it should be shared with the two brothers, and deducting more than 150,000 yuan, Hao Yun got about 870,000 yuan.
He paid 700,000 or 800,000 yuan directly, and it was less than half after he received it.
Finally I understand why those people and celebrities want to shed tears secretly.
If the salary from "New Police Story" is included, he originally had about 900,000 yuan.
After receiving the endorsement fee, Hao Yun's total assets reached more than 2.3 million yuan.
Hao Yun also has some bonus income from participating in competitions, but there are also miscellaneous travel expenses, renting houses, using cars, office calls, etc. It's good if these two can offset each other.
However, with a net worth of more than 2 million yuan, Hao Yun can really be said to be not poor at all in this winter of 2003.
"Take out 500,000 yuan to invest in movies, and then there will be 1.8 million yuan left. What do you think this money should be used to buy?" Hao Yun, a poor man who suddenly became rich, didn't know how to spend it.
"It must be marketing!" Wu Laoliu said without hesitation.
He didn't say buying a house or a car or something, that would be too low, and it's not time to enjoy it yet.
This is just like getting good equipment in the game. You can't just sell it after getting good equipment. You have to equip yourself to challenge higher monsters to get better equipment, and become stronger like a snowball.
"How much money is appropriate for marketing?" Hao Yun didn't say that he didn't do marketing.
Believe it or not, when you compete with others for roles, others will directly blacken you and hire a dozen children of different skin colors to hug your legs and call you daddy.
These days, any star needs marketing, unless you are not popular at all.
Hao Yun is very self-aware. Once "Blood Romance" and "The World's Number One" are officially announced, he will become popular immediately. If both TV series are popular, then he will be ready to face the siege of six major sects on him, Yang Dingtian.
You have to start marketing early.
Let passers-by know you and fall in love with you.
If you have good popularity among passersby, when someone really wants to blacken you, passersby can help you to kill him with a little bit of rhythm.
"Generally, the marketing cost is controlled at about 12%. Some people love marketing, while others don't need marketing. It varies from person to person. For us, I suggest that you spend 300,000 yuan on marketing first, and then focus on building momentum after your album is released."
Wu Laoliu and Shi Xiaoqiang have already calculated this account.
This is the conclusion drawn after comparing Hao Yun's situation with competitors of the same level.
But if you want to deal with someone and mobilize your strength to attack others, the marketing cost will be out of control.
Some top stars spend millions of yuan on marketing every year.
Grab a role or endorsement, and you can recover the cost.
"Okay, take 300,000 yuan as marketing funds, and there will be 1.5 million yuan left." Hao Yun was heartbroken but determined.
Looking around, there are strong enemies everywhere.
We must make our own firepower stronger.
In fact, he didn't know what 300,000 yuan could do. Anyway, he didn't worry that the two brothers would spend the money and do nothing.
The real big money is still to come.
Of these two people, one is a small boss who sells props, with an annual salary of 100,000 yuan, and the other is a college teacher, with an annual income of tens of thousands and decent.
There is no sign of being better than ordinary people.
They left their original comfort zone and came to follow Hao Yun to eat coarse food, and it was definitely not for the small money of 100,000 or 80,000 yuan.
"1.5 million, you have to keep some for backup, and then you can consider buying a nanny car. The leading man doesn't even have a nanny car, which is really shabby."
Wu Laoliu thought about it. There are many places to spend money, but for celebrities, a good car does not mean enjoyment, but also represents face.
In China, face can sometimes play a huge role.
"Oh, by the way, Chen Guanxi gave me a BMW z4 sports car, but I haven't picked it up at the dealer yet." Hao Yun took out the file bag, with the information and power of attorney, and Wu Laoliu could also go to pick it up.
"..." Wu Laoliu was shocked.
"How come I don't know? Did you sleep with him?" Shi Xiaoqiang lost his voice.
"You have no money this month. You just got a little income. Do you want to pay for your bonus?" Hao Yun wanted to pull out his tongue and wrap it around his neck.
"BMW Z4, then you still have to buy a nanny car. This thing is just a toy. It's good for picking up girls, but it's still a little bit worse for work."
Wu Laoliu felt it was a pity, but he couldn't say to ask Hao Yun to find Chen Guanxi to change one.
Face is very important. Our Hao Mei also has to have face.
"Go back first and ask the dealer if the BMW Z4 can be used as a loan, and then buy a better nanny car with a little more money." Hao Yun has no obsession with BMW.
Z4 is just an entry-level sports car.
As for whether selling brother's gift will hurt brother's heart...
But forget it. If he is so easily sad, then he is not Chen Guanxin.
And even if there is a Z4, Hao Yun will definitely drive Mazda to pick him up next time. He is so willful.
"Uh... OK." Wu Laoliu had nothing to say.
At this point, the endorsement matter came to an end. If it was time to sign the contract, it would be signed. If it was time to prepare the GG materials, it would start preparing. After Hao Yun returned, he would participate in the filming.
However, it was quite unexpected that Zhongxing invited Hao Yun to visit their headquarters.
Hao Yun could only understand that state-owned enterprises like formalism.
At that time, there would definitely be photos and other things, and he might even have to attend some meetings.
Of course, he could not refuse.
Hao Yun would not refuse any request from the sponsor as long as it did not involve the issue of innocence.
Chapter 22 of "Tao Te Ching" said, "Not showing off oneself makes one clear; not being self-righteous makes one famous; not boasting oneself makes one meritorious; not being proud makes one long."
Not being proud makes one long!
Hao Yun only had the finale scene on the rooftop in Hong Kong, and the indoor scenes were also finished.
It would take about two or three days to finish.
He finished shooting earlier, and the whole play would be finished collectively in mid-November. The total shooting time was less than two months, but it was already considered a long shooting time in Hong Kong movies.
