Chapter 107: Chapter 107 - A Stunner
He Wei, who already stood up and buttoned his coat, paused before turning his head around, “I understand . Take some documents from Xu Qin when you leave . It’s the new endorsements that I handpicked . Choose any one that you like . ”
“Okay . Take care, Brother Wei,” Yun Xiangxiang waved at He Wei .
She rummaged around for her phone and called Song Qian after He Wei had left . She asked her how long it would take for her to come back, to which she replied that she would need one hour . When she heard that, Yun Xiangxiang asked Coco to take the documents from Xu Qin first .
The endorsements were either from companies that made home electronics or food products; just like what He Wei said .
The food products included cakes, biscuits, chips, and some kind of beverage .
The home electronics had fridges and kitchen hoods .
“Coco, have someone find out the background of the fridge and kitchen hoods of these two companies,” Yun Xiangxiang requested from Coco . “Get one of each snack on here . The cake seems to be a new product . Find a way to get in touch with the person in charge and ask for a box of it . ”
“What are you doing this for, Xiangxiang?” Even though Coco had noted down what Yun Xiangxiang said, she wasn’t sure about her intentions .
Yun Xiangxiang already had her phone out and started searching for the company, brand, and the related news about the fridge and kitchen hood . She even glossed through the user reviews from the official website and the community reviews about the brand online .
“Understanding them . ”
“Understanding?” Coco was still confused .
Yun Xiangxiang raised her head, “If I am to be a spokesperson, of course I need to get to know about the products I’ll be endorsing . What kind of functions they have; whether they’re user friendly or not; whether their company has any record of disguising shoddy items as quality ones; whether they have any record of cutting corners . I need to live up to my endorsements . ”
Coco widened her eyes in disbelief, “Does the spokesperson need to do this?”
“How do you define a spokesperson?” Yun Xiangxiang replied with a question after she put her phone down . “What does it mean to be a spokesperson?”
“A spokesperson is someone famous who appears in ads for a product . ”
Coco gave a bureaucratic response, “Being a spokesperson means that the product is using their influence and appeal to raise the product’s reputation . The end result is to increase the product’s sales which will in turn increase profits . ”
“Exactly . If I’m endorsing it, that means my fans will pay even more attention to these products . They’re my adoring fans . It will be irresponsible of me if I present a lacklustre product to them . ”
“Even so, they should take that to the manufacturer…”
Of course, things like these weren’t impossible . But actors would endorse a huge amount of products . And how many people would use them? Even if the fans found out that the products weren’t exactly incredible after they bought it, they wouldn’t blame the spokesperson . They weren’t the ones who manufactured the products .
The actor was only in charge of promoting the product and taking their pay .
“I think that such an action is being irresponsible . ”
“I can’t control everyone else . However, I must use the products that I’ll be endorsing myself . And I must feel that they’re worth promoting . I can recommend great products for free; I won’t endorse those that I think are shoddy, not for any price,” Yun Xiangxiang told Coco sternly .
This wasn’t a spokesperson’s job . Nor would it appear in the contract . It was Yun Xiangxiang’s own insistence .
She was crystal clear about the fact that she would lose a lot of endorsement opportunities over this .
But she hoped that every cent of money that she earned would do right by her conscience .
Good meant good; bad meant bad . She had to say sorry to those who wanted her to say anything that went against her principles . She wouldn’t be able to do it!
Coco stood up straighter in respect when Yun Xiangxiang was chiding her . She suddenly felt that following her was something to be proud of . She immediately went to handle this matter .
Yun Xiangxiang screenshotted all the news pieces she read after an hour of browsing .
But she wouldn’t just listen to a side of the story online either . There were too many keyboard warriors there; not to mention that there were attacks from competitors .
She would verify them one by one . She would pick a simple one if they would be too much of a hassle .
Yun Xiangxiang only went down after she got Song Qian’s call to notify her about her arrival . She noticed that something was off the moment she got out of the lift .
She saw someone ambling into the lobby once she raised her gaze .
Her figure was curvy; she stood around five foot seven and donned a pair of white culottes that stretched to her waist . The pair of five centimeter white leather pumps she wore made her long, slender legs the center of attraction . Her top was a caped coat with gray and white interspersing each other . The ruffled neckline was especially eye-catching .
Her wine colored hair was tied up in a bun . A pair of heart-shaped tassel diamond earrings decorated her ears . A delicate bag that was adorned with sequin dangled from her hand . She didn’t need to force anything to have her six feet quality to shine through [1] . The receptionists and staff at the lobby treated her with reverence .
Standard oval face; slanted, charming eyes . Every expression was enough to topple a nation .
“Looks like I came back just in time . I just came into the company, and I already bump into the little princess,” Her voice was melodiously moving .
“Sister Man,” Yun Xiangxiang greeted her first .
The woman who came in was Huan Yu Century Entertainment’s one and only SS Class actress – Li Man .
She met Li Man before in her previous life as Hua Xiangrong . They were just acquaintances . Li Man was an unreachable target . She almost never greeted anyone first .
Li Man called her ‘little princess’ on Weibo earlier too . Yun Xiangxiang thought that she called her out of respect for the company .
Li Man circled her once . She sized her up and kept on nodding . Finally she said clearly, “Gorgeous!”
“Sister Man is gorgeous too,” Yun Xiangxiang replied politely .
“No ingratiating; enough confidence . I like it,” Li Man praised . She unzipped her wallet and rummaged through it . She finally pulled a keychain out, “A gift for our first meeting . ”
Yun Xiangxiang noticed that the keychain was fully embedded with diamonds . A ruby the size of a small thumb sat in its center .
“A gentleman does not reave someone of their love…”
“I know you’re a top student . Don’t play semantics with me,” Li Man grasped Yun Xiangxiang’s hand before she could finish and stuffed the keychain into her hand . “Okay, your big sister’s agent is pestering my soul . I can’t admire a beauty now . Ask this big sister out for fun some other day . ”
Li Man winked at her amorously after she said that and sauntered away .
Yun Xiangxiang would admit nothing about this stunner’s eyes being electrifying!
Just that one wink could have men feeling their whole body’s bones undulating .
She lowered her head to look at the keychain that was sleeping in her hand . She turned her head and saw Li Man already entering the lift with a few bodyguards . It would be impolite to chase after her now . She could only accept it reluctantly .
She wasn’t sure how much this keychain cost . Accepting gifts was easy . Sending one in return wasn’t .
Li Man was different to Xue Yu . He was her senior under the same agent; Li Man could only be counted as her senior within the same company .
“Why the long face?” Song Qian couldn’t help but feel curious when she saw Yun Xiangxiang looking so down .
“I can hear my wallet weeping in the storm,” answered Yun Xiangxiang .
Song Qian and Coco couldn’t hold their giggles in when they heard that .
“Wanna go home?” Song Qian asked .
“No . Find a good cake shop . We’ll buy a birthday cake,” Yun Xiangxiang said at one . “Today is Ai Li’s birthday . ”
Song Qian was stunned . She didn’t expect Yun Xiangxiang to remember this
