The relationship between celebrities and major luxury brands is very complicated, and different titles represent different relationships.
For example, Jiang Se is the spokesperson for Hong Kong China. In addition to the remuneration for signing the contract, she also gets photos and videos, as well as products.
However, if the celebrity and the product are merely ambassadors, although there is still a contract, only the product can be obtained. The two parties have a cooperative relationship and a contract, but there is no remuneration.
Best friends maintain a good relationship with the brand, without any compensation or products. However, once Jiang Se signs a best friend contract with Givenchy, he will be able to borrow the latest products from Givenchy during future events.
Jiang Se has been in the industry for a few years. Although she has achieved box office success and her fame is on the rise, the movies she currently stars in are both critically and commercially successful, but she lacks a representative work that would take her to the next level.
If the movie "Devil" starring her and Liu Ye is released, it will help her improve her rank, but Zhao Rang will take "Devil" to participate in the French Film Festival next year, so the movie will not be released at this time. She still needs to work harder.
Signing this contract with Givenchy will be very beneficial for her future entry into the international luxury market and will also make it easier for her to attract the attention of major luxury brands.
What's more, Jiang Se has been in the industry for a few years. Although she doesn't pay much attention to the endorsements of female stars, she knows what she needs to know.
The popular endorsements that female stars compete for are nothing more than cosmetics, fashion, watches and jewelry.
Endorsing major cosmetic brands is a popular choice among female stars, and the chances of getting endorsements and collaborations are great, but fashion endorsements are very difficult.
Xia Chaoqun was able to secure a contract for Jiang Se with a French fashion brand like Givenchy, and Jiang Se knew how much effort she had put into it.
"I finished watching "A Silver Lining" yesterday. How did you feel about it?"
Sister Huang brought over a cooked breakfast, and the two of them discussed work while eating.
To be honest, Jiang Se admitted that "A Glimmer of Hope" was a good script, especially the character Cheng Jianguo in the story, who was a collaboration with Liu Ye.
This was not the first time the two had worked together. Jiang Se also approved of Liu Ye's attitude. She remembered Pei Yi's suggestion and nodded:
"Not bad, I'll take this movie."
After she said this, Xia Chaoqun paused while drinking coffee, and Jiang Se raised his head:
"What's wrong?"
Xia Chaoqun smiled slightly and held the coffee cup:
"I thought you would refuse."
"Why?" Jiang Se was a little surprised to hear her say that. They were not fools and knew that filming Zhang Jingan's movie was a great opportunity for Jiang Se. It was unknown how long it would take to get such an opportunity. "Why do you think I would refuse?"
In fact, if Tao Cen had not had the accident this time, the script of "A Glimmer of Hope" would not have fallen into her hands. With her current status, to reach the level of cooperation with Zhang Jing'an, she would have to at least produce a few works with good reputation, otherwise she would have to use her connections and a lot of money, just like Feng Nan at the beginning, who brought money into the crew but did not get the main role.
"You looked a little off during the audition yesterday."
Xia Chaoqun has known her for quite some time, not just one or two years, so he can probably tell when she is acting and when she is expressing her true emotions.
At that time, her face turned pale, and her eyes were full of fear. "If this is acting, it is too realistic."
When she said this, Jiang Se paused in his eating, and Xia Chaoqun tactfully stopped asking any more questions.
Anyway, for her, she didn't care what the process was like. In the end, Jiang Se was willing to take on Zhang Jing'an's film and achieved the result she wanted.
She changed the subject, "Since you agreed to take on the script, after Steinay's dinner, you will probably have to formally accept the training process arranged by Zhang Jing'an for you. I will communicate with him later." She also asked about Jiang Se's dance and piano practice, which Jiang Se had no problem with.
She had been practicing the piano since she was a child, but after her rebirth she hadn't played it for a few years and it was a little rusty.
But in fact, I had memorized a lot of music scores and techniques, and after spending a few months practicing, I didn't have much of a problem once I found the feeling.
As for dancing, she had a foundation in the past few years, so she suffered a little at the beginning, but she gradually got on the right track. As for the list and information of major brands that would attend the Steinay party, she wrote them down. Thinking of this, Jiang Se looked up and asked Xia Chaoqun:
"Sister Chaoqun, I'll take a day off today."
Xia Chaoqun didn't say anything, but looked up at her, waiting for her answer.
"My boyfriend called me last night and asked for leave from school today to return to the capital." Xia Chaoqun nodded.
Pei Yi's flight was at around seven in the afternoon. Jiang Se arrived outside the airport half an hour in advance. When he came out, Jiang Se saw him at a glance.
Pei Yi's height was enough to make him stand out in the crowd. He wore sunglasses that covered most of his handsome face. He had a buzz cut and bronze skin, and his smooth muscle lines were faintly visible through his fitted army green short-sleeved T-shirt.
He had long legs, was carrying a bag in one hand and had the other hand in his trouser pocket, and had an extraordinary demeanor. When he came out, many girls followed him, holding their cell phones, and they obviously thought he was a newly signed star by some company.
Jiang Se did not get out of the car. Through the car window, she could see the impatience on Pei Yi's face. Several girls were still following him, and some of them had even walked in front of him, blocking his way out.
He didn't mean to stop, and just bumped into him. Several girls who were trying to stop him and wanted to ask him if he was a star signed by a certain agency were frightened by his behavior and hurriedly made way, muttering:
“So handsome.”
When Jiang Se saw this scene, he was about to get out of the car, but Pei Yi turned his eyes over and when he spotted the familiar vehicle, he immediately walked over without hesitation.
Today, Jiang Se came to pick him up and drove alone without letting Mo Anqi follow. He walked to the side of the car and had no intention of opening the passenger door. Instead, he knocked on the window. Jiang Se then unbuckled his seat belt and opened the door.
There were a lot of people outside. The moment Jiang Se appeared, a group of girls following Pei Yi immediately noticed her.
She had a slender figure, but when she stood next to Pei Yi, she still looked like a little bird, just reaching his shoulders, as if she was in his arms. The intimate action of the two of them standing together happened to be photographed by the girl who was taking a photo of Pei Yi. The girl was stunned for a moment, and when she found Jiang Se in the photo, she covered her mouth in disbelief and screamed:
"Jiang Se!"
Her words seemed to set off a signal, and several people who followed Pei Yi screamed, attracting the attention of other passengers outside the airport. When they heard the name "Jiang Se", many people turned their heads. (To be continued)
