Ji Li followed the sound and saw that the other party was a young man with a beautiful appearance. The red suit on his body was particularly eye-catching in this reception.

Ji Li met his almond-shaped eyes, and felt a sense of familiarity, "... May I ask who you are?"

Hearing the sour tone of the other party just now, it is obvious that he knows him.

When the young man heard this, there was a hint of embarrassment in his eyes. He swung his wine glass pretending to be calm, and said with a smile, "Sure enough, you have climbed a high branch. How do you forget things? You don't even remember the classmates from the film and television training period." ?”

When Ji Li heard his jealous and sour words, he tried his best to think back, and finally searched out the number one person in his mind, "Xu Ziming?"

The young man in front of him snorted, as if he had accepted the name by default, "Long time no see, Ji Li."

Ji Li looked at Xu Ziming's face calmly. To be honest, it was a little different from his impression. It's not just the effect of the packaging after debut, to be precise, the corners of the other party's eyes were opened, and the nose was raised.

However, things like plastic surgery are acquiesced in the circle.

Ji Li would not take this point to make fun of it.

What Xu Ziming said was right, he and the original owner were film and television trainees at the same time, and they were half former colleagues.

At the beginning, most of their trainees in that period followed the example of rich second-generation Lin Qiao. However, apart from the original owner who has been bullied all the time, this Xu Ziming is also an exception.

The latter's family background is very ordinary. At the beginning, he voluntarily signed up for the audition of Dream Media's trainees. After several rounds of selection, he became the 'number one' to enter the company.

Because of this audition result, Xu Ziming was very popular among the trainees, and even Lin Qiao was willing to give him two or three points.

But when Ji Li thinks back now, he feels that Xu Ziming is a bit scheming.

At that time, he was obviously jealous of the original owner's appearance, but he didn't want to be the leader. Instead, he provoked Lin Qiao openly and secretly, using the opponent's hand to suppress the original owner.

Later, Ji Li replaced the original owner, just in time for the completion of the company's film and television training. He kept on spinning about things like filming, contract termination and so on, and he didn't have much communication with Xu Ziming.

Unexpectedly, we met again on such an occasion.

Xu Ziming choked up, and said insincerely, "Recently, you have been very powerful, congratulations, you met Mr. Qin Li in your first film debut, and you can still play with him. The fate of this person is really different from person to person. .”

If he got the role of Song Zhao, he would definitely perform better than the young man. After all, their assessment results during the training period were completely different from the two extremes.

Xu Ziming thought secretly, but it's a pity that his ability to conceal his eyes is not in place.

Ji Li easily sensed his thoughts, and the corner of his mouth subtly hooked, "If I remember correctly, the role of Song Zhao seems to be the rest you picked? So, this person's vision is different from person to person."

"..."

Xu Ziming was choked into silence by his counterattack. It's only been half a year since I saw him. The young man's temperament has really changed a lot.

Ji Li asked without changing his expression, "I haven't asked you for advice yet. I learned about domestic brands' perfume endorsements. Why are they so useless?"

"Do you still need me to say?" Xu Ziming took a sip of red wine and raised his overly distinct jaw, "The artist's endorsement should bear the brunt of foreign top luxury and light luxury. Even if it is made in China, it should be a well-known famous brand."

He paused, and seemed to advise kindly, "Why bother to get to know a small unknown brand, it sounds like a cheap product, Ji Li, if you accept it, you will lower your own value."

Ying Yuanjing couldn't listen anymore, "Xu Ziming, please stop!"

Yes, their perfume is not well-known yet, but that is what they developed after years of painstaking efforts. He was reluctant to let an ignorant outsider criticize at will, and even trampled good things into the mud.

Xu Ziming glanced at Ying Yuanjing who was silent, and found the reason for the attack again. He evoked a 'friendly' smile, but in fact there was a needle hidden in his words.

"Mr. Ying is really casting a wide net? I was rejected in the first step, and found a new spokesperson in the second step?"

When Ji Li heard this, his gaze shifted to Ying Yuanjing.

The latter's face was very ugly, and there was obvious anger in the staggered eyes.

It seems that there was an unpleasant knot between the two

Ji Li took the initiative to speak up and rescued Ying Yuanjing, "Mr. Ying has already heard about the matter of finding a spokesperson for his perfume. There is no final decision on the brand's search for a spokesperson. I will look for you first and then me. What does it matter?"

"Mr. Ji, I don't want to hide it from you. Before you came to the dinner, I met him at the entrance of the banquet hall..." Ying Yuanjing took the initiative to explain the reason.

The TV series that Xu Ziming starred in some time ago was a big hit. As the male second, he gained a lot of fans and popularity.

With the help of his daughter, Ying Yuanjing got to know the dinner guests in advance.

Therefore, he took the opportunity of meeting to express his intention to Xu Ziming in a friendly manner. As a result, when the other party heard that it was a small, unknown domestic brand, contempt appeared in their eyes on the spot.

Ying Yuanjing thought about explaining one more sentence, but without thinking about it, he was directly insulted.

Xu Ziming said, let Ying Yuanjing bring his tattered product directly out of his line of sight.

Ying Yuanjing became angrier the more he thought about it, and asked, "You don't like our Ying's perfume, don't you allow me to talk to other people about cooperation?"

Seeing his angry face, Xu Ziming shrugged his shoulders self-consciously, and said with a smile, "Boss Ying, why are you angry? I just passed by and heard your conversation, so I wanted to remind my colleague Ji Li."

"It's a very prudent thing for a celebrity to accept an endorsement product. Even if you can't get the best one, you can't get the worst one?"

He obviously had a smile on his face, but the words he said pierced people's hearts.

There was a hint of gloating in Xu Ziming's gaze towards Ji Li.

His original appearance was a bit bland, far inferior to Ji Li's appearance. Therefore, even if he won the first place in everything during the training period, he still harbors a bitter jealousy towards the young people in his heart.

Later, Ji Li accidentally won the role of He Ling in ancient costume, moved to an established film and television company like Chaoying, and had Yu Fuya as his agent, his jealousy in his heart reached its peak.

In the past six months, he took over a TV series, which was shot, produced, and aired quickly.

Because the TV series contained some nonsensical sand sculpture content, it unexpectedly became popular on the Internet some time ago.

At the same time that Ji Li became popular with his movies, he also gained a wave of popularity with his TV drama male lead. The brand endorsement invitations that came to him, although they can't be said to be top international, are well-known in China .

The two debuted in the same company, and they have similar conditions in all aspects. Since Ji Li switched jobs, Chaoying has always asked Xu Ziming to treat the former as an 'opponent'.

Xu Ziming originally thought that with the backing of Yu Fuya and Chaoying, Ji Li would definitely become a source of resources, without worrying about scripts and endorsements.

Unexpectedly, not only did I see the young man at this kind of exchange dinner tonight, but also found that the other party was willing to accept a perfume brand that I didn't like...

For a while, Xu Ziming's vanity was overwhelmed.

That's why he came over to try to persuade him with a pretense, but his heart was full of sarcasm.

Ji Li guessed his thoughts to the seventy-eight eighty-eight, with a sneer on the side of his lips.

"I think President Ying's perfume products are good, and I plan to learn more about them. However, judging by your smug expression, you must have received a top luxury agent and a high-quality script, right?"

The smile on Xu Ziming's face froze.

Ji Li raised his glass and said lightly, "It's really promising."

These four words, which sound like praise, are actually more hurtful than the sarcasm on the surface.

Xu Ziming choked, his face turned red, "What do you mean?"

As soon as the words fell, another mocking voice sounded, "Only by him? He is also worthy of the top luxury generation? Then the brand owner must be blind."

"..."

The three of them moved their gazes over in unison.

Ji Yunqi slowly swayed out from behind the beams and pillars at the corner, walked to Ji Li's camp, and casually looked around at Xu Ziming from head to toe.

"Sir, if I'm not mistaken, this suit of yours is the style of the light luxury brand Oman at the beginning of last year, right? This is not just an out-of-season style, it is almost the New Year."

"According to what you just said, even if you can't wear the best, you shouldn't wear the worst, right?"

It's okay to be light and luxurious, but it's still the style at the beginning of last year? Tsk tsk, where did the face come from here to pretend.

Ji Yunqi is a young master from a wealthy family, and he has the most say in this luxury brand.

He has an arrogant temperament and the confidence of his family. He will never save face for someone who looks down on him at first glance.

What's more, after Ji Yunqi listened to the conversation just now, he felt that Xu Ziming was not a good bird, what he said was like a rooster crowing, it was terrible.

Ji Li couldn't help laughing when he heard Ji Yunqi's series of words.

Although it's wrong to laugh at other people's clothing styles, but in this glamorous entertainment circle, it's really embarrassing for them to wear such styles.

"What's wrong with the domestic perfume brand? Huaguo has been around for 5,000 years, and there are many good things. What Mr. Ying is doing now is to carry forward the traditional fine culture. If it is a good thing produced sincerely, we as Huaguo people should be supported."

The smile on the corner of Ji Li's mouth widened, and he nodded in agreement unobtrusively. Unexpectedly, this young master Ji Yunqi had a strong sense of national pride.

Xu Ziming didn't expect someone to point out the style of his clothes on the spot, and his cheeks started to burn red with embarrassment.

Ji Yunqi didn't deliberately lower the volume. Some guests around noticed the confrontation in the corner and cast their gazes.

When the scene was deadlocked, Yu Fuya and the banquet host Qi Shanhai walked over one after the other.

"Ji Li, what's the matter with you?"

Yu Fuya realized that the situation was wrong, and immediately quickened her pace, half blocking in front of her artist.

Ji Yunqi raised his proud little head, "Sister Yu, you came just in time, Ji Li was almost bullied by this person, and I am protecting him."

"...?"

Ji Li was stunned for a moment, and cast a puzzled look at Ji Yunqi.

no? and many more.

How did this matter develop to the point where he was bullied? And to be protected by the other party

Yin Ning covered her forehead, and hurriedly approached and pulled her young master who suddenly suffered from the 'Second Second Disease' aside, "Little ancestor, don't make trouble, just stay with me obediently."

This hasn't even debuted yet, so you dare to confront the artist who debuted

"I didn't do anything. Mr. Ying wanted to talk to Ji Li about the endorsement of the perfume, but that person came out and made irresponsible remarks. As a member of Chaoying, I really couldn't stand it anymore before I came out." Ji Yunqi couldn't bear it. stop talking.

When Yu Fuya heard these words, she immediately fixed her cold eyes on Xu Ziming.

Who

How dare you make irresponsible remarks to Ji Li, her son

"Sister Yu, his name is Xu Ziming, he is a signed artist of Dream Media, and he graduated and debuted at the same time as me." Ji Li explained simply, with a normal expression, and he seemed completely unaffected by the other party.

As a manager, Yu Fuya has some understanding of the recent situation in the entertainment industry.

She quickly recognized Xu Ziming from "Little Fire" recently, and asked, "Who is your manager? Where is Song Lan? As the artist director of Dream Media, she allows you to come to this kind of dinner party?"

It's not that Yu Fuya is narrow-minded, most of the little stars and entertainers who come to this kind of dinner party come with the idea of "exchanging interests".

Ever since the scandal between He Ling and the gold master was revealed, Dream Media was greatly shaken, and later it banned the company's agents and artists from coming to such occasions.

At this moment, Xu Ziming from Dream Media suddenly appeared, which is really strange.

After being smacked in the face one after another, Xu Ziming no longer had the relaxed smile just now, and he was extremely annoyed and ashamed, but his feet seemed to be fixed, and he just couldn't move in place.

Xu Ziming was arrogant and arrogant. After the TV series became popular, he looked down on the small scripts and small endorsements that were handed over.

Therefore, he secretly came to this dinner party behind his agent's and Song Lan's backs, just to curry favor with some big directors and advertisers, and to find good resources and a good future for himself.

Because Xu Ziming didn't let the company know about it, he couldn't get the outfit for tonight from the company's clothing department, so he bought a set of light luxury series out of his own pocket.

Just like that, he was ridiculed by Ji Yunqi who suddenly appeared.

Facing his blushing silence, Yu Fuya had already guessed the truth. She stroked the hair beside her ears and warned, "I don't care who your artist is or how famous you are, please take care of yourself."

"We Chaoying will fully respect Ji Li's choice of film and television resources and endorsements in the future, and will do our best to give him the best, so we don't need to worry about you, an unknown junior."

The four words "Unknown Junior" can be regarded as setting Xu Ziming's style.

But just relying on the sudden popularity of TV dramas, now you will be in high spirits. After three months of 'drama fans' popularity, who will watch you

More and more artists and guests stopped to watch.

Qi Shanhai finally stood up with a smile to smooth things over, "Okay, okay, it's just a trivial matter, please give me some face, let's forget it here."

Yu Fuya really didn't want to waste time here, so after a brief greeting, she and Ji Li left the banquet.

Xu Ziming, who was asking for trouble, wished he could find a hole in the ground and go down. After such a trouble, he completely lost the intention of currying favor with any big boss.

He was afraid that what happened tonight would spread to the company and he would be punished.

If he had known this earlier, why would he let go of his chic life and pick on Ji Li

Xu Ziming reluctantly smiled at Qi Shanhai beside him, and was about to leave when he was stopped by the latter, "Wait, what's your name?"

Xu Ziming didn't dare to offend the boss, and introduced himself in a low voice, "Mr. Qi, my name is Xu Ziming."

Not bad looking, and without an agent by his side, it seems to be easy to handle.

A deep look flashed across Qi Shanhai's eyes, and he took the initiative to exchange a glass of champagne for him, "Have you heard of the brand Nocolan? I know the person in charge of their Huaguo region. I heard that they are planning to find a spokesperson for their sub-brand recently. "

Xu Ziming was obviously taken aback, and looked at Qi Shanhai in disbelief.

"Don't look at me like that." Qi Shanhai stroked his little face and said, "I think your face is very suitable. As long as you are willing, I can find a way to give you this spokesperson's contract."

The implication in the words could not be clearer.

Xu Ziming clenched the handle of the cup unconsciously. He recalled the shame he suffered just now, and replied with a deep breath, "Mr. Qi, actually, I have admired you for a long time."

One day later, Chaoying Culture.

Ji Li fiddled with the two bottles of perfume in his hand, with pensive eyes, "Sister Yu, what do you think of this perfume endorsement?"

These two bottles of perfume were specially sent to the door by Ying Yuanjing in the morning. In addition, there was also an endorsement contract drawn up by Ying Shi overnight.

"Last night at the banquet, Ying Yuanjing should have a good impression of you. The endorsement terms offered by their company are very attractive, but this brand is indeed too niche, and compared to other big domestic brands, Ying's is completely small. Workshop." Yu Fuya closed the door and told the truth.

She vetoed it in her voice, "According to your popularity just now, there is no need to accept such a small brand."

Because it was the young man's first endorsement job, Yu Fuya was extra cautious in choosing.

"You've been busy with movie promotion recently, so I haven't shown you the planning of these invitations." She put some recent brand invitations on the table and introduced them.

"I found a few for you. There is an endorsement for a new beauty product, an image ambassador for an old domestic beverage, and a star pusher for a light luxury men's watch."

These three brands are much more famous than Ying's perfume.

"Ji Li, endorsements often determine your commercial value as a star, especially the first step. You must not choose randomly."

Ji Li nodded, but turned his gaze to Baozi.

The latter understood, collected the information with a smile and handed it to Yu Fuya, "Sister Yu, I have done some research, and Ying's is not just doing 'propaganda' gimmicks, but is making real domestic ancient perfumes."

"The steps of their perfume development are all in line with the inspection of relevant departments with the full star standard."

"The most important thing is their customer base. Although the overall market has not yet opened, many bigwigs in the Gufeng circle are now loyal users of their products, and the official flagship store has a 100% favorable rate."

"There is no standard perfume tasting competition in China, but they have already qualified for the final round of the French perfume competition. Once they win, they will be on an equal footing with those big-name fragrances."

The product quality is good, but the only thing lacking is the young consumer groups. Most of Ji Li's fans are young women, which is the core market that Ying's lacks.

Yu Fuya raised her eyebrows slightly, "Do you want to pick it up?"

"I think this perfume brand has a bright future. Why don't you sign a short-term endorsement contract for half a year? Or just choose one of the perfume styles? It just so happens that the next episode will be a costume drama, so it can match the national style effect."

When the contract expires, if Ying wants to change the spokesperson, it has nothing to do with him.

Calculating the time, it should not conflict with Ji Yunqi, the spokesperson in the original book.

"The endorsement is to determine the commercial value, but there is no rigid rule that I can only accept one." Ji Li pointed to other product invitations on the table, "Where can our sister Yu's vision be wrong? I can tell without looking. catch."

"You, you, stop coaxing me with good words." Yu Fuya was amused by him, "Where is this so bad? If you work harder, Sister Gao Sheyu can find a way to win it for you in the future."

"Sister Yu, what about the endorsement contract for Ying's perfume?"

"Okay, I'll find time to have a good talk with Ying. Although this brand is small, if we care about you as the spokesperson, we can accept it."

Ji Li and Baozi exchanged glances, and the latter handed two bottles of perfume to Yu Fuya, "Sister Yu, the brand new ones are here for you."

"Come on, is this old lady someone who can be bought by two bottles of perfume?" Yu Fuya opened the perfume while talking, and sprayed it into the air twice.

In an instant, the sweet but not greasy taste came out, like a garden full of pear pistils blooming in the early morning, with a faint refreshing fragrance.

Yu Fuya is a person who loves to use perfume. She was stunned for a moment, and a little surprise burst into her eyes.

"It seems to be not bad?" Under the watchful eyes of Ji Li and Baozi, she pretended to calmly put two bottles of perfume in her coat pocket and walked out.

The Spring Festival holiday has officially begun, and the long-awaited New Year's Eve masterpiece "Da Zong Juvenile Scheme" has finally officially launched on the stars.

The broadcast time arranged by the film crew is very ingenious. Six episodes are broadcast continuously on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. First, it took advantage of the popularity of the Spring Festival holiday. Even after the holiday is over, it can still take up the evening traffic on rest days.

Xie Yan, played by Ji Li, appeared relatively late, but the broadcast of the first four episodes still caused the TV series to receive heated discussions from all sides.

Some discussed the protagonist's makeup, and some discussed the rhythm of the plot. Except for the brainless drama, almost all passers-by praised it.

"The clothes that Xu Miaomiao wore in the fourth episode look good too! The whole process of makeup is online. Are there any beauty bloggers who can make video tutorials?"

"Ah, Zhou Qingming, I can do it, he's handsome and handsome!"

"A fan of the book, I currently give the TV series full marks, the rhythm is completely online, and the plot has not been magically changed. I will watch episodes five or six tonight. If it continues as before, the initial score of the TV series will definitely be above nine points."

"Have you seen the last trailer last night? Is Xie Yan, played by Ji Li, coming to the stage?"

"Answer the sister upstairs, yes! According to the plot of the original novel, Xie Yan is about to appear on stage! Looking forward to it!"

At the same time, Ji Li received a promotional notice from the film studio.

He purposely brought the official stills with him and posted a simple Weibo—tonight, see you with Xie Yan.

Ji Li is not a marketing person. After the show was broadcast, he didn't specifically notify his friends in the circle to repost it, but after the show's announcement was released on Weibo, Feng Cheng and others who had worked with him on the movie actively reposted it one by one.

The most surprising thing was that Qin Li, who hadn't been online for a long time, suddenly went online, and immediately forwarded Ji Li's Weibo.

Men have always talked less on Weibo, and this time they didn't post any unnecessary words. But even with such a simple retweet, the comments below quickly exceeded 10,000.

It can be seen that Qin Li, as the film king, has been popular for a long time.

—Brother Li, can you be more active when you post on Weibo? [I can’t laugh or cry.jpg]

— Xie Yan is here, will Uncle Wang be far behind? Looking forward to Xie Chenyuan!

—Ah, Brother Li, I love you, love you! The movie has already been brushed five times!

—Brother Li has starred in a TV series for a long time. After your character is launched, I will follow the TV series immediately.

The comments in the front row are controlled by Quaker, and the painting style looks normal.

After all, Qin Li played the role of the regent Xie Chenyuan in the TV series. It is beyond reproach for a man to repost related role promotions related to himself in advance.

But in a certain microblog group called 'The Chinese Rose and Husband Is Real', a group of CP fans have already knocked sugar until they fainted.

@集主环地自萌: "During the release of the movie on New Year's Day, Brother Li didn't even post a few microblogs about his own movie promotion! After ten days, Brother Li forwarded Ji Li's business Weibo as soon as it went online! And the retweeting time is Baby Ji Li's birthday!"

"Sisters! Tell me louder! Did you hit it?"

In the blink of an eye, the group went 'crazy'—

"Knock it, knock it! Knock me to death! Knock me to death!"

"Wow, he loves him so much!"

"I can't breathe anymore! Make a single oxygen bottle! When I crack candy, it's mine, and the rest of the time is yours. Come with quality! [狗头.JPG]"

"Help! I can be a fake, but Yue Ji and his wife must be real!"
