In 2001, the domestic mobile phone market was not Nokia's world, but Motorola, and the reason why Chen Feng has always had a soft spot for Motorola mobile phones is because in his previous life, the first mobile phone he owned was Motorola, which was a gift from his mother to him to go to college, the quality was very good, and it was not broken for several years, until he "rescued" and fell into the Huangpu River, he still has been using it, and now I think about it, he is still a little reluctant to use the Motorola mobile phone that he has used for several years.

Now I heard that Motorola is going to find him as an endorsement, and the price is relatively fair, of course Chen Feng is willing, but Chen Feng also knows that Motorola, a foreign-funded company, has made money in China over the years, and the price of 30 million US dollars seems to be very fair, but compared to the value and large number of orders he gave them after endorsement, this money is not particularly much, and mobile phones are still a luxury at this time. In addition, mobile phone brands such as Motorola and Nokia are now engaged in fierce competition, and it would be too honest if they didn't take advantage of this to raise the price.

After Chen Feng thought about it, he said: "Adams, you give the phone number of the person in charge of Motorola to Sister Cao, and ask Sister Cao to contact her, and say that the price is a little lower, and the endorsement fee for three years will be at least 40 million US dollars." ”

Adams was slightly stunned, but he also cooperated with Cao Yunfang to inform Cao Yunfang of the mobile phone number of the Motorola company that he had just contacted him, and after Cao Yunfang got the mobile phone number, he immediately stepped aside and started contacting.

"Long, this agent of yours seems to be very dutiful?" said Adams, as if serious and teasing.

Chen Feng smiled and didn't speak, he, the president of the signing company, and his agent will inevitably have some friction in the future, but Chen Feng believes that the two of them should be able to understand each other.

Adams also saw what Chen Feng meant, and changed the topic: "Long, tell me about your next album, have you created a few new songs now?"

Chen Feng shook his head and said, "When I go back, I'm going to start composing, and there are no new songs yet." ”

Adams was slightly disappointed and said, "Then can you be sure that you will write at least eight or nine songs a month before this year's Christmas? If you are not sure, I can contact the famous music creators in the industry and write you songs, and I believe they will be very happy." ”

"No need!" Chen Feng said with a resolute face, "This time I still have to take the original creative route, and the songwriting of the entire album is handled by myself." ”

"Long, don't push yourself too hard, after all, people are not omnipotent, creative inspiration is not always available, and there is a time limit. Now, there has been a lot of speculation about the quality of your next album, and many people are pessimistic that your next album will hardly surpass your long, and alas, I have to say, you put a very heavy anklet on yourself from the beginning. Adams said with some concern.

Chen Feng looked like an old god and comforted: "Adams, you have too little confidence in me, you have to believe in me." ”

Adams smiled wryly: "It's not that I don't believe you, but I don't believe that there is an album in the world that is higher or equal in quality than your first "Long" album? ”

"Don't worry, Adams, didn't you say I was a genius before? I think it won't be long before you call me that way again, and I'm confident that I can create songs that are comparable to these three popular songs, you wait and see?" Chen Feng said confidently. In Chen Feng's mental library, there are a few songs that have not yet come out, and of course he is full of confidence. However, this time he plans to start his own 100% original, and if the time is too late and the number is not enough, he can just extract a few classic songs from the jù library in his mind. Therefore, for Adams's worries, Chen Feng certainly felt that he was a little unfounded.

Seeing Chen Feng so confident, Adams felt a little more steady, and nodded: "Okay! Then I'll wait and see." I hope you can create a song as much as you can, so I can listen to it first. ”

Chen Feng readily agreed: "Of course there is no problem, I will write it, I will record it myself as soon as possible, and mail it to you, but I hope you can keep it secret for me when the time comes, and don't leak this song." ”

"Ah, that's right, emails aren't secure these days, and if they leak out, it's going to be a problem. Adams pondered for a while before he said very reluctantly, "Forget it, since you yourself are so confident, of course I also believe in your strength." When you come to record a month before Christmas, I'll listen to you and feast your ears. ”

"Adams, when it comes to recording records, I think it is necessary for Jupiter Records to set up a branch in Hong Kong, so that I can quickly enter the Asian market with my fame, and secondly, I plan to record my own records in Hong Kong in the future, and if I can not go to the United States, I will try not to go. Chen Feng said seriously.

Of course, Adams attaches great importance to Chen Feng's proposal, and after thinking about it for a while, he said: "I am very much in favor of the proposal you mentioned. However, to set up a branch in Hong Kong, the amount set up is not a small number, it is also a big deal, and it must be approved by the head office, anyway, the headquarters of the head office is in Hong Kong, so I will report to the head office by the way these days, and it should be approved. ”

"Well, then I'll wait for your good news. Chen Feng smiled secretly in his heart, his biggest boss behind the scenes agreed, and he still wanted to report?

At this time, Cao Yunfang beat him over and said: "Chen Feng, I have contacted Motorola, and they said that they will consider and discuss it, and give a reply as much as possible, and hope that you can give priority to their company's endorsement on the same conditions." ”

When Chen Feng and Adams heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other and laugh. It seems that Chen Feng has really become a sweetheart, and even an international company like Motorola is still worried that Chen Feng will endorse the advertisements of other companies in the same industry, which undoubtedly shows that the other party values Chen Feng very much, more precisely, the potential commercial value of long.

Cao Yunfang also smiled: "I think there should be no problem in this matter, the person who contacted me just now was the director of operations of Motorola, and he obviously agreed, but because of the amount involved, he still has to react to his superiors." ”

While talking, Cao Yunfang's mobile phone rang, and Cao Yunfang hurriedly answered: "Hey, hello......!

After a while, Cao Yunfang pressed the mobile phone with her hand excitedly, and whispered to Chen Feng: "It's the vice president of Nokia!" After speaking, she quickly said into the mobile phone: "Mr. Romei, I will convey this intention of yours to Long, but forgive me for taking the liberty of taking the liberty of more than half an hour ago, Motorola has already conveyed to me the intention of cooperation, and the prices and conditions they offer are obviously more attractive than your company." Well, well, in fact, in addition to the relationship between price, we also have to compare and examine the two companies accordingly, and Long's endorsement must be cautious and in line with his own identity. Well, okay, I'll convey your sincerity to him. ”

After hanging up the phone, Cao Yun couldn't help but clasp his hands, shouted "yes!", and said to Chen Feng excitedly: "Chen Feng, the price offered by Nokia is about the same as that of Motorola, but as soon as I talked about Motorola just now, he was very nervous and said that they were more sincere, saying that they would propose a more sincere price than Motorola, with an endorsement fee of 35 million for three years. 'long phone', with your portrait printed on it, and all your songs in it, for every one of these phones sold, you and the record company can get a certain amount of commission, and I have to admire their vision, if they can launch such a phone, at least tens of millions of your fans around the world will buy it. Chen Feng, what do you think?"

Chen Feng also admires Nokia's marketing strategy, and has found a way to combine the "long" commercial value with the value of its own goods so quickly, and maximize it, and it is no wonder that in a few years, it will become the world's largest mobile phone manufacturer and the largest occupant of the mobile phone market.

"Nokia's vision is really unique, they came up with such a way to sell mobile phones so quickly, if there is really such a 'long' mobile phone, I want to buy it." Adams said with some admiration.

Cao Yunfang is waiting for Chen Feng's decision, of course she herself is inclined to cooperate with Chen Feng, after all, this can maximize Chen Feng's interests and earn more money.

Chen Feng pondered for a while before he said: "The cooperation conditions they offered are honestly not bad, the price of 35 million is actually a small head, even if it is 30 million, it doesn't matter, the question is how much commission to give me, this is the big head, if I can get the commission I want, I don't mind cooperating with Nokia." ”

Although Chen Feng has feelings for Motorola mobile phones, it does not mean that he can't get along with money.

Cao Yunfang nodded and said: "Well, you are right, we can negotiate this issue, just now Nokia's vice president Mr. Romei said that as long as you have this intention, he will immediately fly to Hong Kong to discuss specific cooperation with you." ”

As if an appointment had been made, Cao Yunfang had just finished speaking, and received another phone call, and her agent seemed to be busy.

After connecting the phone, after a few words, Cao Yunfang whispered to Chen Feng again: "Siemens!"

Dare to love today is a big gathering of endorsements of major mobile phone brands, and they actually called one after another, Chen Feng admired the methods of these high-tech companies, and actually inquired about Cao Yunfang's mobile phone number so quickly.

A few minutes later, Cao Yunfang hung up the phone, but he was not as excited as just now, but smiled: "It seems that I am only a little agent at this time, this time Siemens' conditions are not as good as Motorola and Nokia, and the price of only two years is 15 million US dollars, which is obviously not in line with your current value, and the person on the other side is only a vice president of Asia, and it is only a preliminary intention, which does not seem to be very sincere." ”

Chen Feng asked with some curiosity: "How did Nokia and this Siemens company know your contact number just now?"

Cao Yunfang said with a smile: "At the press conference yesterday, although you didn't specifically introduce me, many people already know that I am your agent, I used to be a freelance writer, and I can be regarded as a person in the entertainment industry, and this mobile phone is no longer a secret." It's not unusual. ”

Chen Feng was relieved.

At this moment, Adams's phone remembered. Adams didn't avoid it this time, and directly connected in front of the two. After a few words, Adams reported the origin of the other party - Versace!

After hanging up the phone, Adams said with a smile: "It was a call from President Donaltella Versace of Versace Clothing, she obviously heard the news that Armani was looking for you to be an endorsement, so she came to disrupt the situation, she said that she would offer a price of $50 million for a four-year endorsement contract, it seems that she is determined to poach you this time." ”

Cao Yunfang was a little dissatisfied with Adams not handing over the phone to her long's agent just now, and said: "I think Versace's clothes are not very suitable for Chen Feng's temperament, and the price is not high, so I have to let Chen Feng endorse them." ”

Adams retorted: "I don't think so, Versace's design concept is to take the fashion avant-garde route, Princess Diana's favorite blue silk one-shoulder evening dress, NicoleKidman's gold suit when he attended the Oscars, and Stallone's dark blue suit and ivory white shirt are all designed by Versace." ”

Chen Feng didn't know much about the specific costumes of Versace and Armani, but he didn't say anything when he heard the words. But seeing that the two officially had a dispute, they had to round the field and say: "Although the price offered by Versace is very good, since we have agreed to have dinner with Giorgio Armani at noon, let's wait until we meet him, a legend, before making a decision." ”

The two did not continue to quarrel.

Adams diverted the topic and said, "Long, it looks like you're going to stay in Hong Kong for a while longer." It just so happens that I will spend more time with you in Hong Kong. ”

"Well, if a few endorsements are confirmed, this time I will shoot all the advertisements that should be filmed together. As for the matter of the Hong Kong branch, I hope you will do your best to hurry up. ”

"Don't worry, in fact, I have considered entering the Asian market before, and this time your Hong Kong nationality is just the right opportunity. It is just right to strike while the iron is hot to set up a branch office in Hong Kong. ”

Cao Yunfang diverted the topic and asked Chen Feng: "Chen Feng, what is the matter with Nokia, what is going on? Why don't you let him fly to Hong Kong first?"

Chen Feng hesitated for a moment, then nodded. Cao Yunfang was about to take out his mobile phone to notify the other party, but was stopped by Chen Feng and said, "Don't be in a hurry now, let's notify you in the evening." Otherwise, if we inform them now, it will appear that we are too urgent, and we will not be able to negotiate at that time. ”

When Cao Yunfang heard this, she couldn't help blushing slightly, as an agent, such a thing should have been considered by her, but instead she wanted Chen Feng to remind her, but she generously admitted her mistake: "I'm sorry, I'm a little impatient." ”

Chen Feng smiled and changed the topic: "Actually, I still like Motorola more, at that time, Motorola was obviously not as energetic as Nokia, but it seemed a little dull." ”

"Oh, now Motorola is the No. 1 in the mobile phone market, why is it so dull?" Adams asked with some curiosity.

Chen Feng didn't explain much, but said a little incomprehensibly: "You will know in a few years, Nokia will definitely catch up." ”

Adams didn't take Chen Feng seriously, and directly led the topic to the place he was interested in: "Long, the Oscar organizing committee asked me to convey their invitation to you the day before yesterday, if you want, they will arrange for you to be a special guest at this year's Academy Awards Gala, and will let you be a guest performer and award presenter, and present a very important award, how do you plan to reply to this?"

Chen Feng quickly searched for news about the 2001 Oscars Gala in his mind, and soon found that there was an award-winning movie at the Oscars, the Chinese-style martial arts drama "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", which won four Oscar awards, and Ang Lee became officially famous at home and abroad with this film. He was the first Chinese director.

It would be very interesting if he was to present the award to Ang Lee then.

Originally, Adams didn't have much confidence in letting Chen Feng participate in the Oscars, after all, the other party didn't even want to go to the Grammys at the beginning, and at this Grammy, he publicly said that he would not participate next year, otherwise, he wouldn't have remembered until now and asked Chen Feng. But now seeing that Chen Feng was silent, his heart jumped slightly, and he felt that there was a door, so he hurriedly made persistent efforts and said: "Long, I think the Oscar organizing committee is so sincere in invitation, if you refuse, it will be very bad." Perhaps, in the future, you are likely to enter the film and television industry. And, if you attend this Oscars, I'm sure your fans will be very happy. ”
