Chapter 422: What if a man has some schemes?

~16 min read 3,042 words

The huge plane headed toward the night sky, drawing a long tail mark, disappearing into the clouds, leisurely painting with the firmament as a canvas.

Although the plane traveling at night was not as conspicuous as during the day, it turned into dots of starlight in the sky, reflecting with the stars, flashing colorful lights.

After boarding the plane, Seeing Jin Li didn't rest but picked up a tablet to process a pile of materials sent by Sister Fang.

Not only did she take out the tablet, but the two assistants beside her were also upgraded to business class by her, able to use the wifi provided in the cabin.

Thanks to Seeing Jin Li, this main subject's roll, as Seeing Jin Li's assistants, they were also embarrassed to degenerate.

Chen Qin took out her tablet and saw Seeing Jin Li processing work, so she quietly changed the TV series to foreign language practice.

She planned to learn a foreign language so she could follow Seeing Jin Li to foreign countries to participate in announcements in the future, so as not to be a deaf person.

Seeing Jin Li's foreign language was not bad, but it was limited to the "not bad" level of an ordinary person.

She could only conduct simple basic communication; answering more professional questions in depth wouldn't work.

Chen Qin glanced at Xiao Cheng sitting next to her. Xiao Cheng's goal was much clearer than hers; as soon as she got on the plane, she took out her tablet to watch videos and even put on headphones.

Chen Qin thought Xiao Cheng was chasing a drama and wanted to remind her not to be so degenerate.

As a result, after this look, she didn't speak.

Xiao Cheng was watching a video of the Formula 1 World Championship!

Chen Qin suddenly felt that she was the one with the lowest self-control.

Chen Qin thought that the Shanghai F1 Chinese Grand Prix was held last month, and many stars and celebrities went to check in. She brushed many videos and collected many.

As the first sub-station to hold a sprint race this year, China's schedule was very tight, with Friday practice + sprint qualifying + Saturday sprint + main race qualifying + Sunday main race.

Some very exciting racing videos were collected by her, so she immediately took out her phone and sent the collected videos to Xiao Cheng's WeChat in one go.

Xiao Cheng's phone kept shaking, attracting her attention. After clicking it open, she found it was sent by Chen Qin and couldn't help but turn to look at her, her expression puzzled.

Chen Qin smiled without saying a word, just gave her a thumbs up.

Cub, Mommy is optimistic about you!!!

As for Seeing Jin Li, she was looking at the brand joint invitations sent by Sister Fang.

When Seeing Jin Li was approached by many brand managers a few days ago, she had a premonition that many brands wanted to cooperate with her.

These past few days, Sister Fang organized the brand list and preliminary joint intention table. Knowing Seeing Jin Li was taking a plane to the concert in advance, she took advantage of her being on the plane to send the materials for her to look over.

Sui Lingfang understood that Seeing Jin Li was very busy, busy filming and busy studying.

But she was a first-tier star, and the company's attitude toward her was not control, but planning and cooperation, so she had to know about some important collaborations herself.

Seeing Jin Li flipped through the table and found that the brands' determination to reach a joint with her was even greater than imagined.

There were a total of eight brands that wanted to reach a joint with her!

Sister Fang sent her a message, with excitement between the lines: 【If we take all these eight joints, you might become one of the most profitable stars this year!】

Seeing Jin Li looked at the price list; from the quotation and subsequent sharing, Sister Fang's words were conservative.

If she could really take them all, she would become the star with the most joints in her hands among individual artists, and I'm afraid she could top the list with an income of over one billion.

But this money couldn't be paid in full within a year, but over several years.

Many stars' incomes couldn't be cashed out all at once, so stars who could be on the rich list were definitely richer than the publicly disclosed figures.

The world of the rich, ordinary people really couldn't imagine.

But her income couldn't be compared with the team income of March Sky; they held more joints, and it was four people exerting force together, so the total income must exceed that of a single star.

Dawn Entertainment sent joint intentions to major brands, and at first, didn't think many brands would follow.

A joint is a double-edged sword; if done well, it can leverage the star effect to increase the overall market share.

Like Fang Fei, it can also arouse consumers' emotional resonance and increase brand premium.

But if not done well, it will also cause brand image misalignment, making consumers produce resistance.

At the same time, it is also easy to make wedding clothes for stars, increasing the star's IP value, but not increasing the brand value.

Sigh, wanting brothers to be well, but also afraid of brothers driving Land Rovers.

Such a tangled psychology is exactly what those brands are talking about.

Moreover, joints will share more benefits with stars. Many brands would rather pay a lump sum of endorsement fees to buy out the star's image than give stars joints.

There were so many brands quoting joints this time; it seems that Fang Fei's previous magazine success really made other brands jealous.

Seeing Jin Li prioritized checking the joints of first-tier brands—Lingyu, Lanxi; these two were first-tier light luxury brands, full of sincerity.

Many high-luxury brands generally wouldn't develop joints with stars other than spokespersons, fearing that stars would have risk crises.

High-luxury brands focus on brand image and reputation, and don't need to explode orders through joints with stars; what they want is longer-term benefits.

And joints are usually only used for short-term project cooperation. The cooperation cycle is short, which can not only control costs, but if a star suddenly explodes an image crisis, they can be replaced at any time.

Therefore, joints will pay more attention to product creativity, just to be able to vertically and accurately lock in crowds and take the fast-moving mode.

So Seeing Jin Li being able to get the favor of light luxury brands was already the ceiling in the joint field.

Perhaps other high-luxury brands will enter the joint field in the future, but that is a matter for the future.

The preliminary joint intention of the two major brands was shoes and bags; Lingyu joints shoes, Lanxi joints bags.

These two products were the types that the two major brands were best at. As long as the brands were attentive, plus Seeing Jin Li's popularity support, it was highly possible to launch a big explosion.

So Sister Fang specifically noted a line of small print behind these two brands: can ask for high sharing.

Except for the joints of these two first-tier brands, Seeing Jin Li could pass directly; other joints were all second- and third-tier brands cooperating, but these were all sub-brands under large companies.

For the remaining 6 brands, Seeing Jin Li needed Dawn Entertainment to send special personnel to dock and inspect.

She replied to Sister Fang: 【Let the brands give a few samples similar to the joint products. The joint quality must be the same as the sample quality. Sign the contract in advance. If we produce joint products later, and the quality we spot-check is not up to standard, we will sue the brand side for breach of contract.】

Seeing Jin Li added another sentence: 【Including first-tier brands, they must also give samples. We will be the villain first and the gentleman later; we must grasp the control of product quality.】

Sui Lingfang sent an "OK" and then asked her: 【Then are you taking all the brands?】

Seeing Jin Li pondered for a while. As a star, her joints were naturally the more the better, which represented her commercial value.

If the quality could be controlled, it seemed that it didn't matter if there were more products?

But she changed her perspective. If she was a party A fought over by many parties B, how could she ensure the maximization of her own interests, and that the product quality produced by party B was the best?

Seeing Jin Li soon had an idea.

She didn't need to use many joints to prove her commercial value.

Her value was placed there and wouldn't be looked down upon by brands because she took fewer announcements and fewer endorsements.

Fang Fei's magazine related to her was a great success; this was her battle record, and everyone couldn't erase her contribution in it.

Therefore, compared to making more and more money, Seeing Jin Li instead wanted to bring more important product quality to fans.

So Seeing Jin Li replied: 【Let them compete in price and products, participate in competition together. Among the eight joints, I will only choose four, or even fewer.】

Her gaze fell back on the quotation list. She had originally put a checkmark behind Lingyu and Lanxi, but she added another stroke, turning it into an X.

Seeing Jin Li: 【Including Lingyu and Lanxi, they must also participate in price and product competition. We treat everyone equally; quality is king.】

Sui Lingfang didn't reply to Seeing Jin Li until half an hour later.

【Okay!!】

Two hours later, Seeing Jin Li got off the plane. The wind at the airport was very strong, blowing with a whoosh, and her cheeks instantly felt like they were being iced.

Fortunately, they were all prepared and took a down jacket in advance, putting it on as soon as they got off the plane.

After entering the venue from outside, the heating was turned on, and everyone was hot after a while.

People were coming and going at the airport. Seeing Jin Li was worried about being recognized... well, she was recognized as soon as she got off the plane. Fans happily picked up their phones to take pictures of her, asking if they could have autographs and group photos.

Seeing Jin Li hurriedly took the five people to a remote corner and whispered: "I will sign for you, but don't make a scene. If there are too many people, I won't be able to sign, and I have to run away quickly."

The fans nodded excitedly.

Seeing Jin Li not only signed for them but also gave them to-signatures, writing a blessing for each person.

She had practiced her handwriting in her spare time, which was in preparation for the college entrance examination paper score. Although writing with a signature pen didn't have the style of a brush, it was still readable.

"May all wishes be fulfilled," "May everything go as you wish," "May everything be better than expected," "Good luck," "May wealth flow in"—the words were few, and Seeing Jin Li finished signing in a short while.

These five fans were also interesting, men and women. Knowing Seeing Jin Li didn't want to be recognized, they simply surrounded her in the center, and everyone else turned their backs to her, helping her watch the outside.

So these people didn't know Seeing Jin Li also gave them to-signatures.

After Seeing Jin Li said she finished signing, they continued to surround her, with three people acting as human walls for her, leaving space inside for Seeing Jin Li to take photos with people.

Those who finished taking photos didn't leave, silently taking over the position to act as human walls.

This operation had nothing to do with the two assistants.

Xiao Cheng and Chen Qin whispered to each other: "I feel Seeing Jin Li's fans have high quality. They didn't scream when they saw Seeing Jin Li. Many young people would shout loudly when they saw stars."

Chen Qin replied in a low voice: "Maybe they are older and their emotions aren't as extroverted as young people's, no need to toss too much."

Xiao Cheng scanned the fans and gave an affirmation: "Hmm, at least they all look like adults."

Seeing Jin Li finished taking photos with the fans, and now she really had to leave.

A fan asked in a low voice: "Seeing Jin Li, can the photos be made public on social occasions?"

Seeing Jin Li nodded: "Of course you can. If you don't want to be watched by so many people, remember to add a watermark to yourself; I have no problem."

"By the way, upload it to social platforms two hours later, hit a time difference."

The fans nodded repeatedly, "Understand, understand, we will upload it in two hours."

A fan specifically handed Seeing Jin Li an orange and said meaningfully: "You appeared at this time; I know why you came. My destination is the same as yours, but I am an audience member off-stage."

"Meeting you was very hurried; I didn't have time to write you a letter, so I gave you an orange from my hometown to satisfy your craving and replenish Vitamin C!"

As soon as this fan gave it, another fan wanted to hand the small twist they were holding to Seeing Jin Li.

Chen Qin and Xiao Cheng appeared immediately, declined the fans' kindness, indicated they wouldn't accept gifts, and then hurriedly protected Seeing Jin Li and left.

They took the VIP channel and didn't encounter any fans all the way, successfully getting into the car that had been parked at the channel entrance.

Seeing Jin Li got into the car and looked at the orange in her hand, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

She left too hurriedly and didn't have time to return the orange.

Chen Qin looked at Seeing Jin Li's appearance and giggled foolishly.

Ah ah ah, CP person CP soul, she wanted to buy this Li-Orange CP stock to the max!

The car drove for three hours before finally arriving in the neighboring city, which was East Weicheng.

The March Sky concert was approaching, and there were too many fans coming to East Weicheng, which was a great pressure on local traffic.

Even if they took the highway the whole way, it was blocked on the highway.

It was already two o'clock in the morning. Gu Cheng specifically set an alarm clock, woke up, and sent a message to Seeing Jin Li, asking where she had arrived.

Seeing Jin Li: 【Still blocked on the highway, cry】

Gu Cheng: 【Tell the driver to look at the navigation, how long until we arrive at the hotel】

Seeing Jin Li: 【The driver said according to the current traffic jam, I'm afraid it will be five o'clock】

Gu Cheng: 【Head pat (′? ω?)? (. _. `)】

Gu Cheng: 【You hurry up and sleep, don't brush problems. When you arrive, I will take you to breakfast. I found a place that is very good for breakfast!】

Seeing Jin Li: 【Good (high five)】

Seeing Jin Li: 【You also hurry up and rest, it's so late and you're not asleep yet】

Gu Cheng smiled lightly, 【Didn't see you come over, a bit uneasy to sleep】

Seeing Jin Li:...

Seeing Jin Li suddenly brought her face close to the window and stuck to the window to cool down.

Why did he suddenly say these things? It's strange to make people let their imagination run wild.

At five-thirty in the morning, Seeing Jin Li finally arrived at the hotel.

The body was not tired from this journey, but the heart was tired. Just sitting was also very exhausting.

This time there was a special driver responsible for picking up and dropping off. Xiao Cheng didn't drive. She and Chen Qin were asleep, their postures crooked. After waking up, they felt their necks were particularly painful.

Seeing Jin Li closed her eyes to rest for a few hours. She didn't fall asleep, but felt her spirits were still okay.

Arriving at the hotel lobby, Seeing Jin Li was checking in. A familiar clear and bright voice suddenly came from her ear:

"The presidential suite is booked; we are right next door to you. Do you want to make up for sleep or go to breakfast first?"

Seeing Jin Li looked up and found that Gu Cheng had already come down refreshed.

He was wearing a baseball hoodie and a hat, not wearing a mask. His figure was tall. Standing next to Seeing Jin Li, he tilted his head slightly, and the corner of his lips accidentally brushed against the hair scattered on Seeing Jin Li's forehead.

Seeing Jin Li was stunned for a moment. Gu Cheng turned his head as if nothing had happened, as if he hadn't noticed the scene just now.

She looked at Gu Cheng a few more times and felt that this person was actually quite scheming.

Un-huh.

He dressed himself cleanly and could go out at any time. How could Seeing Jin Li not understand his thoughts?

After checking in, Seeing Jin Li asked Chen Qin and Xiao Cheng if they wanted to go to breakfast first.

Xiao Cheng felt a bit hungry and was about to speak, but Chen Qin pulled her out: "No need, we will go up and rest first. We didn't sleep well on this journey, and we feel very dizzy."

Seeing Jin Li said with a smile: "Then I will pack it back for you."

Chen Qin: "Good, good!"

After getting into the elevator, Xiao Cheng asked suspiciously: "Didn't you just say you were hungry?"

Chen Qin: "The stomach is a bit hungry, but the spirit is very restless, in a state of 'my body is hungry, but my spirit can still hold on.' Do you understand my excitement?"

Xiao Cheng understood, "You can't wait to watch the concert."

Chen Qin:...

Family members, do you understand my sadness of talking to each other like chickens and ducks?? ===== CHAPTER 423 =====
