Chapter 325 Invitation to Pepsi
"Okay, I won't talk nonsense to you anymore. How do you want to change it? If you have any requirements, please make it clear!" Lu Jia ignored the row of exclamation marks that Chen Chufan called, and soon another message came. Literature Museum
Chen Chufan's response was also very direct, "Refer to Beethoven's Symphony of Destiny and add some emotions that ordinary humans should have, and let's change him into the Song of Jesus who has endured the hardships."
"I understand, give me a month!" After replying to this sentence, Lu Jia's avatar darkened.
"A month?" Chen Chufan repeated the sentence in surprise, and after a moment of reaction, it was not a simple pop song, but a symphony that required more than ten instruments to play for dozens of minutes. It was not a matter of modification every day or two, and a month was probably not really long.
He did it very quickly and made all the songs in a few hours. But he was writing it down, not creating it, nor modifying it, and basically didn't need to use his brain, of course it was very fast.
After thinking through the joints, Chen Chufan stopped worrying about these things, and even gave up the idea of continuing to write down the music scores that popped up in his mind. It would be too much trouble to modify them. It would be better to wait for Lu Jia to give him the revised score a month later and discuss with Lu Jia about forming a studio.
Giving Lu Jia too many scores at once is not only not effective, but more importantly, he really can't explain where the inspiration comes from, and suddenly wrote so many large-scale songs.
After making plans, Chen Chufan turned off the computer and lay down on the bed with peace of mind and fell asleep in a deep sleep.
The next day, I slept in a nap. After getting up, I sorted out the music that popped up in my mind at my desk. One morning I quickly got through. After having lunch and resting for a while, Chen Chufan rushed to the central TV station. Although it was only in the evening that the official recording of the evening party program was started, the director asked all the actors to arrive at the studio before 3 pm and began to prepare for the evening party.
From this we can also see that the style of the central TV station is indeed rigorous. Even if it is not live broadcast, there cannot be any major mistakes. Of course, this is not all advantage in Chen Chufan's opinion. As a young man who likes the feeling of passion, he naturally prefers that kind of improvisation, and it is best to have various unexpected occasions.
Unfortunately, the Central TV station is like a mature middle-aged and elderly uncle. The rules are always meticulous. They put on makeup and change clothes, and were once again called by Director Wang to explain in detail the performance steps that had been rehearsed several times yesterday. It was almost time for dinner, and Chen Chufan could finally take a breath and stayed in the backstage with a group of big names and started eating lunch boxes.
I'm afraid the Central TV station has the confidence to keep such a big group of big names on the stage to eat boxed lunches. However, the quality of the boxed lunches is very good, at least Chen Chufan ate with relish.
During this period, Sun Yuyue came to Chen Chufan for a few more words. Congratulations to him after his program passed the review, he was attracted by the ball around Chen Chufan, so he simply got tired of Chen Chufan and stopped leaving. He held the little guy in his palm and kept teasing him, which made everyone in the room look at him frequently, which also made Chen Chufan feel quite embarrassed.
Fortunately, the performance officially began not long after dinner. Sun Yuyue also quickly took her seat. The stars at the opening show were about to appear in the gala-style song and dance "Happy Lantern Festival". Except for Chen Chufan, who was temporarily participating, he was not arranged to play because he did not undergo rehearsal, which made him much easier than other big names. At least at this time, he could still sit in the backstage to rest, and follow Mrs. Chen who came with him to watch the lively scene in front of the stage from the TV screen.
"Mr. Chen, do you think the audiences in the audience want to buy tickets?" Chen Chufan looked at the TV and said boredly.
"I rarely come to the inland. But I have never heard of the central TV station selling tickets for the party." Mrs. Chen didn't care about Chen Chufan's nonsense and answered seriously.
"That's not a loss-making deal!" Chen Chufan smacked his lips and said softly.
"How can you lose money?" Chen Tai looked at Chen Chufan, who had no idea about the media operation model at all, and said: "For example, when you are on a show, Universal Records contributed one million yuan. I don't know if anyone else wants to pay tribute. However, there are other incomes for a party, such as titles, such as prime time advertising, etc. With the ratings of your inland central TV station, the expenses of a party can easily be made back. What's more, I haven't heard of any celebrity who comes to the central TV station to ask for appearance fees. In this way, a party costs are not much cost!"
Mr. Chen's explanation made Chen Chufan's eyes widen. He didn't expect that in order to show his face on the Central TV station, Universal Records actually paid a million yuan. By the way, this money is too easy to make money, right? According to Mr. Chen, the Central TV station's gala would be a net profit.
"This money is too easy, right?" Chen Chufan sighed.
"You will also feel that money is actually quite easy. There is something I was going to tell you after the party is over. Since you said this, I'll just tell you. Pepsi Coke invited you to join the ranks of Pepsi superstars, which means you are invited to become one of the endorsements stars of the brand. The price offered is 1 million Hong Kong dollars a year. Of course, the contract is only signed for one year for the time being. Are you interested? Of course," Mr. Chen said.
"Let me be the endorsement? One million Hong Kong dollars?" Chen Chufan was stunned. He didn't expect that a company suddenly asked him to be the spokesperson. However, the obvious price given made Chen Chufan feel a little useless. One million Hong Kong dollars is really not a big figure for him, and it is not helpful to his plan to buy an island.
"Yes! If you agree, after the Lantern Festival, I will contact Pepsi, find a suitable time to sign a contract, and may hold a press conference." Chen Tai nodded.
"To be honest, I'm not very interested!" Chen Chufan shook his head, looking like he lacked interest.
"What? I think the money is too low?" Mr. Chen looked at Chen Chufan with a smile, "I really advise you to take on this endorsement!"
"Oh? Why?" Chen Chufan naturally would not think that Mr. Chen was interested in the signing fee. You should know that in the contract agreement, Mr. Chen helped Chen Chufan contact a spokesperson contract, but he could only raise a signing fee of 5%. In other words, even if Chen Chufan successfully signed a contract with Pepsi, Mr. Chen could only get only 50,000 Hong Kong dollars. This is naturally a small amount of money for Mr. Chen.
"You should know that Pepsi is a world-renowned big brand. To be honest, your current fame is simply not comparable to Pepsi. As Pepsi, they invite you as the spokesperson of their brand, and naturally they are interested in your future potential. Now your brand can even be said to be relatively weak compared to Pepsi. Do you have no objection to this?"
Mr. Chen began to explain to Chen Chufan patiently. Seeing Chen Chufan nodding in agreement, she continued: "As a world-renowned mature brand, they are often more cautious when choosing artists to endorse. They usually spend a while to examine the artist's image, literacy, reputation, etc. before deciding whether to choose this artist as endorsement."
"What you mean is that Pepsi is willing to ask me to be an endorsement, and I should be honored?" Chen Chufan couldn't help but complain.
"I haven't finished speaking yet, listen to my explanation!" Mr. Chen looked at the impatient boy with a angrily voice and blamed him.
Chen Chufan stuck out his tongue, "You keep going, I'll listen!"
"The endorsement advertisements of this kind of brand are often large-scale productions. The production teams they use are the best in the industry. The image they create is naturally very high-end and atmospheric. So as an artist, you can naturally improve your level after the advertisement is broadcast, and even form an impression in the audience. The artist is very high-end. Therefore, other big brands will also consider using you as their endorsement. This is a virtuous cycle. After one round, your level will be raised, and the quality of your works will also be improved. Therefore, even if there is zero endorsement fee, I suggest you take on this endorsement!"
Mr. Chen was afraid of being interrupted again, so he simply finished all the benefits in one breath. Just as Chen Chufan showed a thoughtful look and was about to speak, Mr. Chen continued: "Of course, as a big brand, they have zero tolerance for celebrity negative news that endorse advertisements. They all have a mature program to deal with celebrity negative news. Once their spokespersons emit negative news that will make consumers feel that the brand image will affect the brand image, they will immediately start this set of response procedures, immediately remove the advertisement, or even terminate the endorsement contract. Therefore, signing a big brand is also a self-disciplined constraint on the artists themselves."
"Okay, Mr. Chen, don't say anything. I'll take it, can't I take it?" In fact, when Mr. Chen explained the virtuous cycle theory of cooperation with big brands, Chen Chufan was already moved. For him, what success and art are all empty, it is a waste of time. Hurry up and build an island and fulfill his promises are what he needs to consider first.
What the man said was the water that was poured out, and he didn't plan to take it back. As for art to move the world, okay, you can't ask someone who can't even eat enough to save the world, right? Of course, as a grassroots artist, Chen Chufan still has the most basic conscience. After agreeing to sign the contract with Pepsi, Chen Chufan added: "I said Mrs. Chen, if, um, I mean if, don't laugh at me. If I really become famous, don't help me accept some messy advertisements!"
Mr. Chen looked at the young man who was so angry that he looked at him: "Don't worry, I'm not those unscrupulous agents who only care about making money by themselves, and I won't treat your reputation as a joke!"
