Chapter 85 - Chapter 85: The Clear Stream of the Investment Circle, The Scum of the Capital World

"Mmm, thank you!"

Ye Xiaohe was overjoyed.

Not only did she get the Meiyou endorsement, but she also received guidance from Wang Yi, finding her suitable acting path!

This would greatly benefit her acting career in the future.

"It's getting late, go back!"

Wang Yi yawned.

"Okay, thank you."

Ye Xiaohe smiled sweetly:

"Good night, Mr. Wang!"

"Night!"

Until she left the room, Ye Xiaohe felt incredible.

She never thought it would be so easy to get the endorsement contract!

Mr. Wang is truly the... clear stream of the investment circle!

Just as Ye Xiaohe was overjoyed, she hadn't walked many steps when she encountered Lin Zixuan coming towards her:

"You're out so soon, it seems Boss Wang isn't interested in you and rejected you. My chance has come!"

Lin Zixuan's eyebrows were raised in delight, and she sneered:

"Ye Xiaohe, Ye Xiaohe, sometimes being early is useless! The Meiyou endorser still belongs to me!"

"Heh heh."

Ye Xiaohe smiled disdainfully, then raised the contract in her hand:

"Sorry, I disappointed you!"

"How could this be?"

Lin Zixuan's eyes widened, full of disbelief.

Ye Xiaohe sighed:

"A petty person's heart judges a gentleman's belly. Mr. Wang is a decent man who doesn't play those games, and he was still willing to sign with me!"

"As for you, you couldn't catch Mr. Wang's eye, so you never had a chance from the start! Hmph!"

Ye Xiaohe snorted coldly and strode away.

Only Lin Zixuan was left standing there, her face extremely grim.

As a third-tier celebrity, Lin Zixuan could only take endorsements for some trash brands.

Missing out on Meiyou, a big potential brand, she probably wouldn't encounter such an opportunity again in this lifetime!

But that damn Ye Xiaohe snatched it first!

Unwilling!

Extremely unwilling!

Staring at Wang Yi's door, Lin Zixuan hesitated for a long time, finally sighed, and turned to leave.

The Meiyou endorser had already been decided, and she didn't want to make a fool of herself.

After sending off Ye Xiaohe, Wang Yi was in a great mood.

Today, Meiyou not only achieved 26 million in revenue and 300,000 new users!

They also signed a prospective ten-billion-box-office actress for 2 million, a five-year endorsement contract!

Saving at least over ten million!

After all, Bai Xiaohe, a ninety-billion-box-office actress, charges 5 million+ for an annual endorsement fee.

A huge profit.

If Ye Xiaohe performs well, he can certainly give her some pointers as compensation later.

Even helping her achieve a ten-billion-box-office actress status wouldn't be a problem.

But if Ye Xiaohe turns on him after becoming popular, Wang Yi would also have thunderous countermeasures.

Heaven or hell, it all depends on her choice.

As for Lin Zixuan, let's talk about it if there's a suitable opportunity in the future.

For Zhenyou's endorser, Wang Yi still preferred Liu Shishi, one of the four top actresses, who had more strength.

As for Qingyou, a low-end brand to increase volume and block copycat profits, it temporarily didn't need an endorser.

Wang Yi entered dreamland happily, but unexpectedly, Yu Xue in the next room gently closed the door, completely relieved.

Then she sent a message to Song Sining:

"Manager, Boss kept his integrity and sent Ye Xiaohe away!"

"Very good, you've worked hard."

Song Sining replied, then smiled:

"Little brother, you didn't disappoint me! Otherwise, I wouldn't let you hug me for the rest of my life; at most, we'd just be colleagues!"

As for causing trouble or tripping up Wang Yi...

Song Sining couldn't do such things.

Even if Wang Yi had other women, she would at most restrain her love, quietly waiting for him to break up, and wouldn't trip him up.

In her previous life, she did just that, but Wang Yi was clueless, making her wait for several years in vain...

There are always some people who, no matter how society changes, still maintain their own bottom line.

Song Sining was just such a person.

This was also the reason why Wang Yi trusted her implicitly.

What happened in the entertainment industry is unknown to outsiders, but there are no secrets within the circle!

What happened today was spread that very night:

"Boss Wang of Meiyou is generous and invests boldly. For a small film that everyone wasn't optimistic about, the director wanted 4 million, he directly invested 5 million, and later added to 6 million!"

"Boss Wang doesn't put on airs, doesn't interfere with everything, respects the director greatly, doesn't arbitrarily add scenes or change actors. He even offered many valuable golden ideas that everyone praised..."

"Boss Wang respects actors. Even for Liu Zhang's zero remuneration, he made up the difference at the price she would command after becoming famous, with a premium!"

A person's name precedes them, like a tree's shadow.

Wang Yi's first move in the entertainment industry made him a model in the investment circle.

No choice, mainly because other investors were too bad.

This is an era of 'who can be worse'.

As long as Wang Yi is decent and doesn't mess around, he wins big!

Many directors and producers who were tired of serving sugar daddies were considering whether to approach Boss Wang for new projects...

Then, another piece of news caused a sensation in the circle:

"Boss Wang signed an endorser at double the price, but doesn't play those unspoken rules. He's considered a clear stream in the entertainment industry!"

Now, many actresses were tempted!

Double the contract, and no unspoken rules!

Who wouldn't want such a sugar daddy?

Especially those who just entered the entertainment industry and didn't want to be too open yet, they really hoped to meet someone like this!

Some female celebrities even made inquiries overnight, asking if Boss Wang had plans to enter the entertainment industry and if he would sign artists?

However, in the eyes of those capital magnates, Wang Yi became the scum of the capital world!

A black sheep!

In those years, celebrities weren't worth much.

It wasn't until a few years later when capital massively entered the entertainment industry that celebrity values began to skyrocket tenfold!

Wang Yi doubling the endorsement fee was already enough to break the rules!

Not even engaging in unspoken rules, isn't this just nonsense?

Is this something a human would do?

Overnight, Wang Yi became the clear stream of the investment circle and the scum of the capital world!

Female celebrities were ecstatic, wishing they could collaborate with him, even if it meant taking less money.

Capital magnates, however, sneered, gritted their teeth, and disdained to associate with him!

But Wang Yi knew nothing of all this, merely enjoying a good night's sleep.

The kind where you don't even set an alarm, sleeping until you wake up naturally!

When he was working back then, where could he get such treatment?

Early the next morning, the Jizhou Evening News was delivered as usual to various units and households.

It's worth mentioning that Jizhou Evening News is a provincial-level major newspaper!

It accounts for 35% of the total newspaper and periodical market share in the province!

It is not only the most influential media in Jizhou but also the most influential major newspaper in the entire province.

It is also a global top 500 media company, a national top 500 enterprise, with a brand value exceeding 5 billion.

The daily circulation of Jizhou Evening News in Jizhou exceeds 400,000 copies.

Printed simultaneously across the province, the highest daily average circulation reached over 1.7 million copies! (Data from Baidu Baike)

As a major province for civil service exams, in 2011, when mobile internet was just starting, reading Jizhou Evening News daily was a required course for many!

Brewing a pot of tea and opening the Jizhou Evening News was also a habit for many.

However, when they saw today's front-page headline, their expressions became wonderfully complicated:

"Our City's High School Senior, Snags a 985 University Spot with a Second-Tier University Score, and Founded Meiyou Technology!"

"A second-tier university score to snag a 985? What kind of luck is this?"

Most people's first reaction was generally this.

As for the latter half of the sentence, the few who knew Meiyou would be greatly shocked.

They never imagined that Meiyou was created by a high school senior!

But more people hadn't heard of Meiyou and mostly didn't care.

There were many people starting businesses these days, mostly as a hobby, and they didn't last long.

Out of a hundred startups, ninety go bankrupt!
