Chapter 133: A Big Surprise

Satisfied with fixing his cufflinks, Li Luo unbuttoned the top two buttons of his shirt.

Even without Lin Yue's reminder,

when attending such a commercial event properly, he had to dress crisply. To put it bluntly, this was a kind of respect given to the organizer; in this society, many times people are judged by their appearance.

As long as he hadn't reached the boundary where he could ignore social rules,

in terms of dressing,

one still needed to pay attention to the occasion.

Of course, there was no need to tie a tie; that thing seemed a bit too formal, and a sense of relaxation was still needed.

"Brother Luo."

At the door, Wu Yu poked her head in. "Do you need my help?"

In her hand,

she was shaking a small box of hair wax.

"Come on."

Li Luo walked to the dressing table and sat down, looking spirited. "Give your boss a handsome hairstyle."

The little assistant could do quite a few things; she could tinker with simple hairstyles. Previously, she had helped him grab hair wax at his suggestion, and the result wasn't bad at all.

After some tinkering,

he put on his jacket with Wu Yu's help and put on his shiny leather shoes.

The "suit thug" complete form was achieved.

Actually, his physique could be described as "tiger back, bee waist, mantis legs"—shoulders were broad, the waist was slightly thinner in comparison, the leg muscles were very solid, and with the height bonus, he looked particularly good in a suit.

"Tiger back" represented strong upper limb strength, "bee waist" meant a flexible body, and "mantis legs" meant explosive power.

If it were in the Ming Dynasty,

this physique of his would be the benchmark for the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

Of course~

Not just suits.

There were very few costumes he couldn't handle; with a good physique and a handsome face, even wearing a piece of rag looked good.

After he dressed neatly and put on his Rolex,

after resting for a few minutes, the suite doorbell was pressed by someone outside.

Opening the door,

Lin Yue, who had changed back into a business suit, was already standing outside with her subordinates.

The moment she saw her, Wu Yu's expression was a bit dazed. Only one afternoon had passed, but the other's complexion was better than before, and her skin was glowing with a moist luster.

It was as if a flower about to wither had been irrigated and restored to its original beauty.

"Mr. Li Luo, please follow me."

Seeing Li Luo in a suit and leather shoes, Lin Yue's eyes sparkled, and she waved to the side. "The banquet venue is already prepared, and Boss Ding is already waiting above."

As expected of someone who could do such big business.

She did things without any leaks.

Even if he was the one taking the money, coming to Jinjiang this time meant he was a guest.

The host couldn't let the guest wait early, so the Anta side chose to invite Li Luo to be seated after the personnel were in place.

Under her greeting,

the group walked toward the elevator.

Wu Yu naturally had to be brought along; having someone by his side could also support the scene.

Arriving at the banquet hall,

these people split into two.

Wu Yu was led by other staff members to be seated outside the hall, while Li Luo went straight to the VIP box with Lin Yue.

Inside the box, a dozen people were already sitting.

In the middle of the huge round table, there was actually a small rockery and flowing water. Dry ice released faint white smoke floating on the water surface. This elegant dining environment was quite unique.

All kinds of exquisite seafood circled the table.

"Eat seafood when near the sea," right~

Of course, there were also Fujian famous dishes like "Buddha Jumps Over the Wall," and the specifications were quite good.

Under Lin Yue's introduction, Li Luo shook hands and greeted the people in the box one by one. It wasn't just Anta people; there were leaders from the convention center, the press conference host, TV station leaders, and news media.

All the people related to the launch were present.

Li Luo noticed he was the last one to arrive and greeted them even more enthusiastically.

His mouth was still apologizing repeatedly.

Indicating he didn't deserve it.

Everyone said it didn't matter; Fujian people follow rules when doing things.

They couldn't let the guest wait here early.

That would be too inappropriate.

The previous identities were all considered normal, but when it came to the next person, Li Luo became confused.

"Seven Wolves."

Lin Yue introduced the honest-looking man beside Ding Zhizhong. "Zhou Duoxiong, Boss Zhou."

"Hello, Boss Zhou."

Li Luo held the other's hand. "Nice to meet you."

"Hello, Li Luo."

Zhou Duoxiong shook his arm, smiling and looking him up and down. "Not bad, not bad. The young man looks really spirited in a suit, even more handsome than a model, tough enough!"

"Thanks for the compliment, Boss Zhou."

Letting go of his hand, Li Luo looked at the man sitting in the main seat.

"I don't need an introduction."

Ding Zhizhong laughed and took a folded newspaper from his private assistant and placed it on the table. "Didn't expect you, Li Luo, to send me a gift as soon as you arrived in Jinjiang."

"I saw it today too; thank you, thank you."

Hearing this, the people sitting beside them all curiously cast their gazes on the newspaper.

As the head of a company,

he wouldn't shoot without a target.

It was an entertainment weekly, with Li Luo's photo printed on top. At the time, he was accepting a media visit and was sitting on an actor's chair accepting an interview.

At first glance, nothing special.

But look closely.

The sports T-shirt he was wearing had the Anta LOGO on it, which was exceptionally eye-catching.

Wherever this newspaper was sold,

the Anta LOGO went wherever his figure went.

It was undoubtedly a big advertisement.

Zhou Duoxiong keenly noticed this point, and no wonder Ding Zhizhong felt so happy. The endorser he hired was too thoughtful in doing things!

"You're too polite, Boss Ding."

Li Luo returned a smile and sat down in the chair beside him. "Anta's clothes are indeed good to wear, breathable. You don't know how stifling it was in Panyu during this period; anyway, I wear them every day on the set."

"Those news media, I guess they just happened to take the pictures."

Five million, not taking your money for nothing.

Doing things absolutely in place.

It wasn't just one company that took the photos; there were more coming one after another!

Ding Zhizhong could naturally understand the meaning of the last sentence, and the smile on his face became even more intense.

Under his gesture,

everyone raised their glasses one after another to welcome Li Luo to Jinjiang.

It could be seen that Lin Yue's position was still quite high. He was the main guest today, so sitting in the front was very normal, and this hot-bodied little young woman also sat beside him, looking quite calm.

The wine party started quickly.

Although there were quite a few delicious dishes in front,

Li Luo had little chance to use his chopsticks; various toasts were endless.

Fortunately, they were all small wine cups.

The alcohol content of the wine was not high, and he could hold on.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of dishes,

when Li Luo's face was slightly flushed, Zhou Duoxiong beside him wiped the corner of his mouth with a napkin and issued an invitation to him. "Mr. Li, how about we move to the side and drink a few cups of tea?"

Before he could make any response, his calf was kicked lightly.

"How can drinking tea be without me?"

Lin Yue put down her chopsticks with a smile and grabbed the napkin. "Let Boss Zhou try my tea-making skills today."

"That would be great."

Zhou Duoxiong laughed and continued to look at Li Luo inquiringly.

Based on the other's words just now, and Lin Yue saying today she wanted to give him a surprise,

what kind of tea was this?

In Li Luo's heart, he probably had a bottom line.

He agreed immediately.

After apologizing, the three walked toward the tea room beside them along the side door of the box. Lin Yue took out Tieguanyin familiarly, and the actions of boiling water and cleaning the tea set were like flowing water.

Li Luo thanked him and took the cigar, swallowing clouds and spitting fog with Zhou Duoxiong.

Wine and smoke,

are the best way to shorten the distance between strangers.

Exhaling a puff of smoke, Li Luo took advantage of Zhou Duoxiong's inattention to glare at the sexy little young woman.

Not even giving a heads-up for such a big thing, making him have no preparation in his heart.

The latter had a smile at the corner of her mouth.

Her hands were making tea unhurriedly.

Lin Yue should have specifically learned tea art; her hand movements made people feel comfortable and calm.

"Please have tea."

A short minute passed, and several cups of clear tea were distributed one after another.

A faint tea fragrance drifted in the air.

Li Luo put his two fingers together.

He tapped the table lightly three times to express his gratitude.

After a mouthful of Tieguanyin, Zhou Duoxiong cleared his throat and opened the conversation. "Little Brother Li, actually I came here specifically to chat with you today. I don't know if you have any understanding of our Seven Wolves?"

"A man has more than one side."

Li Luo picked up the teacup to signal the other and nodded seriously. "I like this sentence very much."

This time,

it was Lin Yue's turn to roll her eyes at him.

"Glad you like it."

Zhou Duoxiong looked at Lin Yue, who was making tea, with a smile at the corner of his mouth. "Actually, I've also been wanting to find an endorser recently. When we were drinking tea together before, Manager Lin recommended you to me."

"Later, I found the news of the press conference you attended before."

"I have to say."

He had appreciation on his face and looked at the suit on Li Luo's body fixedly. "You look very spirited in a suit, and you have a lot of style. How about it, are you interested in helping Seven Wolves open up the youth market?"

Business jackets and suits

were the main products of Seven Wolves.

Just as Li Luo walked in the door, Zhou Duoxiong liked the image he presented.

Originally, he just wanted to meet.

After seeing the newspaper Ding Zhizhong took out, he immediately made up his mind to sign Li Luo.

Businessmen are also people.

For people who are particular about doing things, naturally there will be a bit more appreciation.

Now that the guess had come true, Li Luo couldn't suppress his joy. In the eyes of some people, brand endorsement is as difficult as ascending to heaven; you have to take down your competitors to have a chance to get on top.

But in the eyes of some people, it's just a matter of one sentence.

Lin Yue's recommendation at the appropriate time

could allow him to enter the field of vision of the boss of a well-known enterprise. This favor was not small.

Compared with those medical health product endorsements,

Li Luo was more inclined to this kind of well-known clothing endorsement; the money earned wasn't against his conscience.

For his own brand value,

it was also an improvement.

Seven Wolves' brand positioning was high-end business menswear, which didn't conflict with Anta. Since it wasn't sportswear, there was no non-compete restriction, so he could accept it openly.

This brand was quite well-known and had long been a leader in menswear brands.

Seven Wolves' belts

also left beautiful memories for countless people's childhoods.

"Thanks, Manager Lin."

Li Luo held the teacup with both hands to signal left and right, thanking him repeatedly. "And thanks to Boss Zhou for thinking highly of me. Actually, I like wearing suits very much in my daily life. To have the opportunity to wear Seven Wolves' clothes,"

"how should I put it, this is my honor."

After the words fell,

he drank the tea in one gulp.

Zhou Duoxiong patted his knees twice and laughed with satisfaction.

Putting down the teapot, Lin Yue very sensibly said she was going to the restroom, leaving space for them to discuss the details.

After all, she was an Anta person.

It wasn't appropriate to discuss some things in front of her.

After washing her hands unhurriedly and dealing with some miscellaneous matters, Lin Yue returned to the tea room, twisting her plump buttocks. Zhou Duoxiong was nowhere to be seen, leaving only Li Luo smoking a cigar slowly.

"Where's Boss Zhou?"

She left the door half-hidden and sat down beside Li Luo.

"Had some urgent business and went back."

Li Luo bit the cigar, his eyes filled with irrepressible excitement.

"How did it go?"

Lin Yue reached out and picked up the teapot.

"Don't~"

In a light cry, the teapot in her hand nearly fell, and she was hugged tightly into his arms by Li Luo. Lin Yue said in panic in a low voice, "Little Luo, calm down, there are still many people around."

"Say it again?"

Li Luo bit the cigar and moved his hands all over.

"Brother Luo~~~"

With another delicate low cry, he let go of his hand.

"Look at how excited you are."

Putting down the teapot, Lin Yue hurriedly tidied up her clothes and gave him a beautiful glare. "What exactly are the conditions?"

Also a brand endorser.

Time: two years.

Zhou Duoxiong had originally offered a price similar to Anta's.

Both were in the clothing industry, so the endorsement fees offered by everyone would be about the same.

In Li Luo's view, it couldn't be the same price as before.

When discussing the endorsement with Anta before, although *Heavenly Sword and Dragon Slaying Sabre* was airing, his popularity wasn't that exaggerated yet. But after a period of closed-off time, that show became more than just a little bit popular.

Not to mention *Ping Zong Xia Ying*.

*Legend of the Sui and Tang Heroes* was another big hit show. If the price offered wasn't ideal, he would rather press the endorsement for a while.

Two big hit shows in a row; his commercial value would definitely rise with the tide by then.

So he directly presented facts and reasoned.

Talk about money!

Nothing to be polite about.

Of course, the tone was as tactful as possible. After all, Seven Wolves was very solid in business menswear, and this enterprise also had one or two thousand stores nationwide.

If he conducted commercial promotion together with Anta,

he would be the most handsome guy in the domestic entertainment market this year.

Actually, looking for artists to endorse,

any company would make a commercial value judgment in advance.

Li Luo held a big hit show in his hand, and there were two more TV series with him as the male lead waiting. Judging from this momentum, he was indeed on the way up.

Plus, Zhou Duoxiong really liked his image.

After some consideration, he finally gave a price of six million for two years.

The other party made a concession, and Li Luo stopped while he was ahead.

The two struck a deal with a high-five and agreed to implement the specific contract in Beijing at the end of the month.

"Little friend Li Luo."

Hearing six million for two years, Lin Yue also felt happy for him and immediately puffed out her chest proudly. "This time I gave you a big surprise; how do you plan to thank your benefactor?"

Thank.

Naturally, he had to thank her.

Li Luo took off the cigar and whispered to this big girl.

Those words made Lin Yue feel soft all over.

Regardless of whether there were guests in the next box, she blushed and beat him messily. ===== CHAPTER 134 =====
