Chapter 638: Chapter 638: Everyone can tell it’s his handiwork
Top-tier planners and directors for advertising shoots, to some extent, all have a certain pride in their talents and, even when it’s an order from above, would often show a bit of temper.
However, under the forceful command of someone like Li Shengxiao, even those who’d want to put on airs probably wouldn’t dare cross this line of fire.
Because it’s just a superior’s order, even if it turns into a mess, there’s still some room to maneuver. If it were a command from this man and it went south, what awaits wouldn’t be as simple as packing up and rolling out. Pushing too far might even lead to being blacklisted globally.
The loss would outweigh the gain!
“Yes, Mr. Li,” Gu Ming noted.
“Hold on,” Li Shengxiao called out to him before he could leave.
Gu Ming stopped in his tracks and stood upright again, “Does Mr. Li have any further instructions?”
The light flickered in Li Shengxiao’s eagle-like eyes as he added another line, “Don’t rush to release the footage after shooting. Wait until the rival chocolate advertisement comes out, then release it immediately!”
Gu Ming’s reaction was swift as he immediately grasped what was meant, “Understood, Mr. Li. I’ll pass on the message to them.”
He thought, the President wouldn’t just stand by and watch Miss Rong being bullied by others. Rong Weiwei and the chocolate brand want to create a fuss? Well, let them! When their advertisement materials are released and they’ve blown their own trumpet, they’ll be waiting for a slap in the face!
Both are chocolate brands, one merely popular domestically while the other is an internationally renowned luxury brand. The difference in stature is self-evident.
When the time comes, the brand’s and Rong Weiwei’s so-called status will only become a joke to others!
Indeed, Mr. Li doesn’t act often, but when he does, he leaves those pretentious people knocked out, searching for their teeth.
“Mr. Li, I’ll get in touch with JS right away,” said Gu Ming, keenly aware of the opportunity, “I’ll have them contact Miss Rong’s team.”
Although Miss Rong, with her intelligence, could definitely guess that there was the President’s hand behind JS Chocolate’s approach, having JS initiate the contact would be much better than if they did it.
“Hmm,” Li Shengxiao’s brows relaxed somewhat as he elegantly returned to his meal.
…
Half an hour later, Estelle, who had been trying to reach out to her contacts, suddenly received a call.
“Really? Of course, that would be possible. Now? Okay, we’ll come right over. Direct shooting… about that, can we discuss it once we arrive? Alright, we’ll be there in twenty minutes,” she said.
Upon hanging up, the gloom that had earlier filled her was swept away by unmistakable joy shining on her competent face.
“Estelle, who was that on the phone? Did work come knocking?”
Estelle couldn’t be in a better mood as she turned to her assistant, who was eagerly awaiting an update and shared, “Yes. Someone from JS just got in touch with us. They said their chocolate line is looking for an advertising spokesperson and wanted us to come over immediately. The specifics will be discussed when we get there.”
“JS?” The assistant was surprised and delighted, never having expected an international first-tier brand to take the initiative to approach them.
One must know that Rong Yan now has popularity, but “Three Kingdoms” hasn’t been officially released yet, and her status isn’t considered particularly high.
That sort of resource from an international brand is typically fought over tooth and nail by A-listers; how could they suddenly turn to them?
After the initial surprise, the assistant grew concerned, “Are you sure there won’t be any problems?”
Estelle glanced at Rong Yan and assured with certainty, “No problem.”
The timing of this opportunity, coinciding exactly with what Rong Weiwei had snagged, the chocolate line, hinted at whose doing it was without question.
She wasn’t worried about any problems at all.
Rong Yan caught Estelle’s glance and understood her implication. She pinched the bridge of her nose, feeling a headache brewing. Even Estelle had figured out Li Shengxiao was behind this; and she, by no means blind, of course, saw through it as well.
Just last night they were… Does this count as sleeping her way to the top?
