In the car.
The Heavenly Queen's agent called the Heavenly Queen.
She said, "It didn't work out."
On the other end of the line, a very pleasant female voice said, "Who snatched it?"
She sighed and said, "It was Zhang Ye."
The voice said, "How did you lose?"
She said, "It was my fault."
She briefly explained the whole story.
On the other end of the line: "OK, I got it. Forget it then."
Yes, they could only forget it. What else could they do?
The toilet was a hero and a friend!
What about them? They couldn't possibly hug the toilet and shout, "You're so awesome, my dear brother," right? They could only swallow their pride and find a chance to get back at them in the future!
......
The next day.
The sanitary ware brand's agent and lawyer flew to Beijing together with Ha Qiqi to sign an official two-year endorsement contract with Zhang Ye.
"Teacher Zhang, it was a pleasure working with you."
"It was a pleasure working with you."
"Can the commercial be recorded as soon as possible?"
"Sure, you can arrange it."
"You're the director, so why would we need to arrange it?"
"Alright then."
"We'll provide the manpower and money. You can decide on the filming."
"Alright, that won't be a problem."
After settling things here, Zhang Ye hurried to the television station.
......
Four.
Five.
Six.
On this day, Zhang Ye's team had secured six long-term endorsement contracts.
Some of these contracts went smoothly, while others did not. The back-and-forth and confrontations between the celebrity teams were not something to be told to outsiders. The infighting between celebrities was like this. It was a battle of popularity, experience, connections, and image. Usually, there would be no bloodshed, but it was even more terrifying than that.
In the morning.
Zhang Ye received a call. It was from Zhang Yuanqi's agent.
Fang Weihong laughed the moment the call connected. "Teacher Zhang, are you snatching endorsements?"
Zhang Ye said, "No."
"Come on, I've already received the news." Fang Weihong wondered, "You snatched the endorsement contracts of those two Heavenly Kings and Queens? How did you do it? "
Zhang Ye smiled and said, "My personal charm."
Fang Weihong said half-jokingly, "Let me say this first. Don't even think about Sister Zhang's endorsements."
Zhang Ye said, "Of course. Besides, I can't win them even if I wanted to."
"Then I'm relieved." Fang Weihong asked, "But I'm still wondering how you did it. You even got the endorsement for the number one sanitary ware brand? Two days ago, I went to Teacher Zhou's bar and bumped into the Heavenly Queen's management team. There were a few young ladies in there who had a little too much and were cursing and swearing about Toilet Bowl, Hero, and Toilet Bowl being a good friend. F * * k, that scared me. I quickly turned around and pretended I didn't know them and left. Are these people crazy? What kind of trap did you dig for him? Something wrong with his mind? There are people who treat toilet bowls as friends? Isn't it just a sanitary ware advertisement? Do they have to be so dedicated? "
Zhang Ye was amused when he heard that. "Who knows what they're thinking?"
Fang Weihong said, "Don't hurt people so much."
Zhang Ye said, "It has nothing to do with me, Sister Fang."
That song was called "Toilet Bowl." It was a very classic song from Zhang Ye's previous world. The singer was even more famous — Andy Lau, Wah Zai! Back then, this song was tailor-made for a particular sanitary ware brand and was very popular. There weren't many advertising songs that could become so popular, and "Toilet Bowl" was one of them. So when Zhang Ye mentioned sanitary ware advertisements, it was the first song that came to his mind.
The news naturally could not be kept a secret.
The media also gradually realized it.
"Zhang Ye's team wins endorsement deal for a reading brand!"
"Zhang Ye's team wins endorsement deal for one of the top three dairy brands in the country!"
"Zhang Ye's team seizes the market!"
"The largest jewelry brand in the country announces its next celebrity spokesperson — Zhang Ye!"
"The Heavenly Queen's team fails to beat Zhang Ye's team!"
"According to rumors, Zhang Ye's jewelry brand endorsement fee: 10 million a year!"
"Zhang Ye to get married? Jewelry brand spares no expense! "
"The Heavenly Queen's team misses out on the biggest sanitary ware brand!"
"The most sought-after sanitary ware brand lands Zhang Ye!"
"The endorsement market is surging!"
"This year's brand endorsement king will be Zhang Ye?"
"Snatching from the Heavenly Kings and Queens?"
The industry was a little taken aback.
"Zhang Ye?"
"He snatched up so many endorsement deals?"
"What is Zhang Ye trying to do?"
"It's not often that he can clinch so many major endorsements in just ten days!"
"Even the Heavenly Kings and Queens failed to beat him?"
"That shouldn't be the case. Zhang Ye still doesn't have the ability to compete with the S-list celebrities, so how did he manage to clinch so many major endorsements?"
"You can't get fat in one go. Can he handle so many endorsements? If the advertisements are too concentrated, it might even have the opposite effect, unless the quality of the advertisements is extremely high. But with so many endorsement deals to film, even if he has some reputation in the advertising world, he can't possibly make them all classics, right? "
"Yeah, he's insatiably greedy."
Many people in the industry were discussing this matter in their spare time.
However, Zhang Ye's team was still taking on endorsements as though there was no end to it!
Countless industry insiders were watching helplessly as many of the widely recognized and high-quality endorsement deals were nibbled down by Zhang Ye's team. At the beginning, everyone was only feeling apprehensive and did not think too much about it. But as time went on, everyone could no longer sit still!
There were too many of them!
Aren't you fucking taking on too many endorsements, bro!
Are you not leaving any space for the other celebrities to eat?
Without a doubt, this year's endorsement king would definitely be Zhang Ye's. Be it the brands he endorsed, the total amount of endorsements, or the number of endorsements, Zhang Ye was far ahead of the other celebrities. Even the top seven spots in the entertainment industry did not have as many endorsements as he did!
Voices of doubt arose!
Some of the A- and B-list celebrities also came forward.
A-list movie star Jiang Hanwei posted on Weibo: "Greed is the original sin." It was unknown if he was mocking Zhang Ye.
There was also a B-list celebrity whose endorsement deal had been snatched away by Zhang Ye's team's manager who publicly scolded Zhang Ye on Weibo. His words were not too harsh and were just venting his anger.
Zhang Ye's fans blew up!
The troll army rushed forward one by one!
"Who are you talking about?"
"Who do you think you are!"
"Only we can scold that fellow Zhang Ye. Who do you think you are?"
"It's just a fair competition, so what are you being so sour about!"
Even Big Saber Bro made a dazzling appearance!
It had been a long time since they had fought. Zhang Ye's fans, who just wanted to see the world burn, were so excited that they could not wait for the fight to start. But who would have thought that it would not end up in a fight!
The next moment, Zhang Ye replied to that person's Weibo.
Zhang Ye's temper was much better now. He directly said to that agent: "Are you sure you want to have a catfight with me?"
A catfight?
A catfight?
A battle of words?
Any seven-year-old child on the streets would know that Zhang Ye had never lost before!
Just two minutes after Zhang Ye's reply, that B-list celebrity's agent deleted his Weibo post dejectedly and did not say a word. It looked like he also knew how powerful Zhang Ye's mouth was. People in the entertainment industry often got into catfights, but Zhang Ye was the only celebrity who had never lost a catfight before!
That agent was terrified.
Zhang Ye did not say anything else either.
The industry was just gossiping and the other celebrities were just jealous. But with this incident, the brands that had signed endorsement deals with Zhang Ye were starting to feel uneasy.
...
That was the head of the milk brand.
"Teacher Zhang."
"Hey."
"Haven't you taken on too many endorsements?"
"It's not too bad."
"Will it affect our commercial production?"
"It won't."
...
At a jewelry brand.
"Director Zhang, can you guarantee the quality of the commercials?"
"Don't worry."
"But isn't it a little too casual with just a catchphrase?"
"For a ten-second commercial, one catchphrase is more than enough."
"I'm afraid that if you take on too many endorsements, it will affect the attention of our brand."
...
All of the brand companies were very worried.
Zhang Ye's team could only comfort them one by one.
Just how effective would Zhang Ye's commercials be? No one knew. His studio's staff could not predict it, and neither could the brand companies!
Only Zhang Ye knew that it would be fine!
These commercials that he had given out had all been verified by the market in his previous world. Every single one of them was a resounding classic. They might not look impressive, simple, or even average, but their actual effects were definitely on par with an atomic bomb. Any one of them could leave a mark in the history of the domestic advertising industry in this world. It was just that Zhang Ye could not tell them.
The commercials were going to be released on a large scale soon.
When the commercials were released into the market, all doubts would be answered.
